I ordered the Jasmine matcha cloud drink and it is delicious. The Jasmine tea is pleasantly fragrant and the milk in the drink made everything taste light and airy. The matcha is so sweetened perfectly. It is a fresh tasting drink that is enjoyable in the hot weather.

Have been drinking more coffee lately and wanted to update my review to also include that! Love their cold brew, love that they offer decaf.

The place is ever so cute. It is spotless. The service is great. Even the robot is adorable. We love their Mango mango and all of their lattes are great. Their espresso is perfect. I wish it was open a bit later. We often end up there near closing. But it is one of our favorite coffee shops in the South Bay. It is fun, the prices are fair and again, they have a robot. They close at 6 pm so get there. Please stay open until 7, we will come. The attention to detail in every cup is consistent and amazing. You will love it.

I approached the counter and let the gal know it was my first time. She proceeded to tell me about some of their signature drinks. I ordered the Bada Fog. The pastry case was almost empty, so I didn't really notice it until after I paid. I was curious about the robot arm, but I didn't get a chance to see it in action. My drink was human made. I did like the Bada Fog. I would like to see the robot arm in action though.

I came later in the afternoon and found empty tables by the entrance. That is where I discovered the "no laptop zone" signs and that some of the tables are reserved. I'm unsure how that works. I ended up ordering an iced chai latte, and I thought it tasted pretty good. I would say it honestly that it is in my top 3. It has the kick of spice from the chai and it is honestly not that sweet. They offer bakery items, cold pastries along with the drinks they serve. Customer service was straight-forward. Nothing amazing. The environment is pretty quiet for the most part. I couldn't even hear them when they called out my number. Ironically, I was able to hear everyone's except for mine. The plaza is pretty horrific for parking. There are a LOT of businesses in the plaza so it gets full quickly. Also, the spots are pretty tight so be careful about door dings. They have restrooms with no code, 2 stalls for women.

You can tell they put a lot of effort into their food and drinks. As for the ambiance, it's perfect for those who want to hang out and catch up with friends/family or to study. When I visited, there were easily 5 other groups and individuals studying here. I have a big soft spot for banana flavored items. A BIG SOFT SPOT. Banana Cream Pie Latte - this one carries the biggest punch for banana lovers. Banana cream the entire way from start to finish. Not too sweet. Awesome foam top too. I highly recommend drinking these without the straw. Foam top drinks are best appreciated when you get a nice 50:50 ratio of the foam and drink. Banana Matcha Latte - the name speaks for itself. It's a nice mixture of both. So if you're looking to feel a little healthier with the matcha element, then go for it. This was probably the prettiest drink of the 3 that we had. Americano - delicious and got the job done here. I naturally enjoy Ethiopian and Colombian beans. I brew them often at home. I was definitely wide awake after these drinks lol Strawberrynana Waffle - If you LOVE belgian-style waffles like me, then you'll find yourself ordering this again and again. It wasn't too sweet but sweet enough to easily go through 2 or 3 of these plates if you're crazy enough. Banana Walnut Honey Bread - the best for last! I really loved eating brick toast growing up. There were so many stores back in the day that sold them, and now I can't find them as easily. In fact, Caffe Bene is the only place in the South Bay that I know that sells them. This one brought me back to the past and put a gigantic smile on my face. Delicious, perfectly sweet, balanced, and finished wanting more. Highly recommend!

Felt very mom and pop/family owned with Polaroids on the walls, which was a nice touch. Overall their ice cream I think is just okay. I tend to like creamier ice creams with depth of flavor, and this didn't really stand out to me. The chestnut also didn't stand out which I was hoping for since it's known for it. Service was okay too - when I asked for additional spoons, the lady just pointed to a spoon jar in the waiting area. Probably won't try again.

I did like that besides drinks they have a good menu for food. It was honestly kind of hard to decide what to get. Originally, I had ordered the barbecue chicken bowl, but my man asked me to change it to the Poké bowl because my son loves poke. I did change that and the presentation on that was super cute. I opened it up just to take a picture. I didn't realize there was no rice on here, but that's because it's a poke salad not bowl so that was my mistake. I definitely feel like I needed rice with this which you can order on the side. The poke was pretty good. But I feel like it was kind of expensive for what it is. Maybe if it was $15 versus 17. I could definitely get a Poké bowl with way more toppings for about $17. But the poking itself was tasty. If you're looking for a healthier alternative, this is good. Since it is an actual poke salad I'll still rated a 4.5 out of five. It also came with a scoop of Mac salad, which was a little bit on the sweeter side. We got three drinks. My son got the strawberries smoothie which he didn't even get to drink until we got home since he fell asleep. My man got a shake of some sort which he said was really good. I got the Biscoff shake. But I did add Boba to it. We left on the road and I drink that, but it was missing my Boba which the sticker also showed that it had. I think most people wouldn't add Boba to a shake so they forgot. We were already on the freeway so I had called to ask for a refund for that. They were very helpful and able to refund me that in a little bit more. I appreciate that since we came from out of town and we were exhausted and already stuck in traffic. The Biscoff shake itself was actually really delicious, but yes, I was just missing that Boba. The service was great, and the fact that they did still help me out after we left, I appreciate that very much so this is a spot I would return to you in the future when I'm up in the area.
