Apple butter matcha latte and a turkey bacon ranch wrap
Christine N.

I had been recommended full circle kitchen by multiple family and friends and when I realized I was in the neighborhood I had to stop by. I was immediately greeted and sat down upon arriving by the very nice barista's. The menu is full of fun drinks but I went with the apple butter matcha latte that was delicious! The wrap was also perfect. I enjoyed the natural light that fills the room. Definitely looking forward to returning to try different things!

Breakfast burrito - amazing, there is a bowl option too. Salsa is perfect!
Catherine S.

Been here 3x in less than a month. An incredible spot!! Vibes are immaculate, especially when there is a dj mixing songs with physical records (so cool & unique). It is a chill environment with friendly and attentive staff. Food is amazing. I have gotten the breakfast burrito twice and breakfast burrito bowl once. It's addicting. The ingredients are of high quality and very fresh. Potatoes have incredible seasoning and crunch. Coffee is delicious. Iced latte, iced latte with sugar free vanilla syrup, and blueberry latte are all very delicious. This is a perfect spot with my friends after our workout. We drive 16mins from La Verne to come here almost every Saturday because it's so good!!

Very cool vibe!! Came in on a Sunday. The DJ was playing good vinyls. Coffee was really tasty. I ordered an iced latte with cold foam and the chili oil toast. Service was quick and easy. food came out pretty quickly. All the staff working that day were super friendly. Loved the positive flow. Use to be a different cafe, definitely liking this new restaurant and concept for this spot.

Chili oil pork belly
Gifty W.

I was so happy to find out a new spot opened up in the hood. We were pleasantly surprised when we walked in and saw the Dj booth and cute aesthetic. We went on a Saturday morning and there was only 1 server who was very kind and gracious. I ordered the porkbelly and eggs with chili oil. It was good. I'd probably try something else on my next visit. The coffee was great. I do wish there were a few more options on the menu but I appreciate this location.

The ideal find for our record thrifting Saturday meetup: a few buddies recently got into the vinyl scene and asked where we could go to look for used and new records. I suggested a few stops in and around Covina, so I went to Yelp to find a good spot to grab breakfast first. The name caught my attention and upon a quick Yelp look, it made for an easy decision. We sat outside but the inside is pretty cool - full DJ setup and lots of albums. I ordered the pork belly and a side of potatoes for the table to split. And, a latte of course: The pork belly was... mmmmm.... so, so good. Crispy and seasoned and hot. The greens were a nice complement to the salty goodness of main dish. The potatoes were also quite good but my only comment was that they used the same seasoning as the pork belly and it was a little heavy on the potatoes. Don't get me wrong, they were good but it was the same note twice. The latte was solid. And, the location made for the perfect meetup spot. Fast forward two hours and I ended the day with 4 new records to add to my collection and a great new spot to tell others about trying near downtown Covina.

Iced Chaga Matcha Latte and Matcha Latte with oat milk.
Jennifer S. M.

We stopped by on an early morning looking for matcha drinks. This establishment is located in downtown Covina. You can park on the street or in the garage. They are only open from early morning to lunch time. When we came it was not too busy. We were greeted right away and were there to order some drinks to go. I liked the environment. It gave a chill and relaxing vibe. The music was low enough where you can have a conversation with the person sitting across from you. I ordered a Chaga Matcha Latte, iced and with oat milk. My husband ordered the Matcha Latte, iced and with oat milk too. My drink had more of an earthy flavor with hint of sweetness from the oat milk. I enjoyed it very much because I finished it drink within minutes. Overall, I wouldn't mind coming back to try their brunch menu.

Matcha Latte & Chaga Matcha. YUMMY! ( ^_^)b
Kevin M.

We came by early on a Saturday morning just to try out some of the drinks. The location has parking on the street and a parking garage nearby. The vibe has a cool atmosphere. They have good music playing the entire time. The staff took care of us and made us feel welcomed the whole time. We decided on the Chaga Matcha and Matcha Latte both with oat milk. Side note: milk substitutions are free of charge. Huge plus! :) They have countertop seating and a few tables inside to dine in. Also the outside patio has 3-4 tables. We stayed inside to drink our drinks and I really enjoyed it. My Matcha Latte was tops. I loved the matcha balance with the sweetness so it wasn't too bitter. Every sip was delicious. Overall, Full Circle has a great energy and I'd be down to come by again to try their breakfast/brunch items next visit! ( ^_^)b

Avocado Toast with Chili Oil + Fried Potatoes + Pork Belly and Eggs

As someone who moved to Covina recently, I have been very underwhelmed by the food options here. A lot of places are mediocre and overpriced. Full Circle is one of the few places in Covina that I would actually bring my friends to. I read some previous reviews before posting this review so I want to point out a complaint someone had about the food. They mentioned they wanted pickled onions for their avo toast on the side and didn't get that. I can confirm they took that feedback into consideration, since I ordered the same (sans egg) and had my pickled onions on the side. In terms of the food that I ordered, I enjoyed the housemade sourdough bread, the chili oil on my avo toast (generously spread), and the thick cut pickled onions as accoutrements. The pork belly had some tough parts due to the nature of how it's cooked and wasn't particularly flavorful, but boded well with everything else on my plate. Portions are decent for the entree and sides. We also ordered the fried potatoes on the side which are thick cut and seasoned well. For a drink, the barista allowed me to customize my drink so I got an iced matcha latte with soy, black sesame, and espresso shots to make it a dirty matcha. She asked for feedback on taste, which is another plus in my book because she actually cares to make it well. I let her know I liked the ratio and was still able to taste the matcha most of all which is what I prefer in my matcha drinks whether they have espresso shots or not. As everyone has mentioned, the vibes are chill and relaxing. It's a great place to talk with friends even with the DJ spinning. We had a DJ playing for a bit and when they were done, 60s music was switched on to play on a Friday afternoon. Definitely appreciate the not rushed atmosphere, but I would probably be singing a different tune if it's busy there. Their soju based cocktails sound appetizing and I would wanna try that the next time I'm there. All in all, I think this is a great brunch/lunch spot and I will most certainly be back!

Pork belly and eggs
Hannah L.

I selfishly want to gate keep this new establishment, but I have to share how great our family breakfast experience was with the two kiddos. Food is 11/10. Portions are all shareable! We got the pork belly and eggs main, which came with two thicc cut deep fried pork belly, choice of egg preparation, grilled bread, and a side salad that was dressed in a delicious vinaigrette. The egg breakfast sandwhich was packed! I saved half for later. For sides, we got some crispy and tender potatoes and tasty cinnamon toast accompanied by mascarpone. It's unassuming at first, but the subtle balance of sweetness and cinnamon comes in on the back end. My kids loved these. Service was friendly and attentive. We came with our toddler, and were asked if we'd like a plastic cub for her water. I liked that it was reusable. We ordered a lot of food to try out the menu. There was only one person working of the beverages, so that came a little slower than the food, but I didn't mind. I was enjoying tunes by Daniel Cesar, Brent Fayaz and H.E.R. Ambience and vibes hands down exceeded expectations. I love how they repainted the inside a Hunter green with green accent wallpaper. It complemented the warm wood tones of the vinyl shelf and dj set up in the back. This place is really crafted for the person who appreciates good music, great food and quality coffee.

Vanilla latte
Mariana G.

It's rare to be waiting for your food at a restaurant while already thinking about what you'll eat later... but that was me at Full Circle today. I was genuinely excited to try this place given their interesting approach to food and music. I also love any spot that advertises fresh, clean ingredients. Starting with the pros: Full Circle has a beautiful, clean interior and very friendly staff. I loved watching the barista work, it's clear she's talented at what she does. Now for the cons. By 11:30am, they seemed to be running low on many ingredients. They were out of pork belly, potatoes, regular bread, and cinnamon loaf. However, while ordering, we were only told they were out of cinnamon loaf. It wasn't until a few minutes later that we were informed they also didn't have pork belly, bread, or potatoes. I'd understand this more if it were closer to their 2pm closing time... but it was 11:30am. Luckily, they weren't out of coffee, so I ordered a vanilla latte with cold foam, it was overly sweet but good. About 20 minutes later, I received my avocado toast with egg. It was pretty good, but I specifically asked for the pickled onions on the side and was reassured they would be. When it came out, they were all over the egg. I understand restaurants can get hectic, but small details like that can put a damper on the experience, especially after finding out half the menu is unavailable. That said, the toast did taste fresh, and I can't complain about that. I just wish I'd had the chance to try the items I originally ordered. What I can complain about is the price: $50 for two coffees and two fairly small avocado toasts with egg. I'd love to come back and give this spot another try, but I may wait until management has a better handle on keeping ingredients stocked. There's definitely a lot of potential here.

I wish the cold foam could save the drink
Arturo M.

First time visiting Full Circle right across from Covina City Hall and I really wanted to like it, especially as a local who remembers the previous Mexican spot that used to be here. I'm giving it two stars because the staff, especially the gentleman who helped us, was genuinely kind and welcoming. That part did not go unnoticed. However, the service flow needs work. Our potatoes came out with no utensils and we had to wait until the food was already in front of us to ask for them. No extra napkins were provided, and we were never checked on after the food arrived. We eventually had to flag someone down for the check. None of those things alone would have cost a star, but together they made the experience feel inattentive. The bigger issue was the food. It was extremely bland. Mid bite I genuinely wondered if everything was intentionally under seasoned because there was almost no depth of flavor. When pricing is on the higher side, expectations naturally go up with it, and unfortunately the taste just did not match the cost. The coffee drinks were also disappointing. I love coffee and could not finish mine. There were no basic table additions like salt, pepper, sugar, or creamer readily available, which made it hard to adjust anything to taste. If the concept is meant to be elevated or minimalist, that's fine, but the flavors still need to stand confidently on their own. I chose outdoor seating, which I appreciated for the natural light and quieter vibe, but the exterior could use some attention. It felt a bit unpolished, and hearing the DJ inside gave the space more of a lounge or nightlife feel than a relaxed brunch setting. I can see how some people might enjoy that energy, and clearly the place draws a crowd because there were people waiting. I respect any business investing in the Covina community, and I do wish them success. With stronger seasoning, more attentive table service, and a bit more polish inside and out, this could be a solid neighborhood staple. For now, though, it just didn't land for me.

Pork belly with eggs. Fried potatoes. Breakfast burrito.
Diana Z.

Can you believe they've only been open for 9 months? This hidden gem is worth a try and beware because you'll be hooked! Great service, delicious food and yummy drinks. Parking wasn't hard to find on an early Sunday morning but from the looks of it there's so much parking options like the parking structure, street parking and parking across the street. Family owned restaurant and the owners were so helpful/kind with my questions. I loved the vibe inside as they were playing some oldies. Looking forward to coming again.

Fluffy egg breakfast sandwich
Mirrella B.

I was craving a matcha and looked up a new place to try. I found Full Circle Kitchen & Sound on Yelp and read that they were having a soft opening phase. I made my way and was happy to see that there was street parking available as sometimes the downtown area can be very very. I walked in and was seated immediately. The inside has a minimalist vibe. They have about a coffee bar and about 10 tables inside. They also have about 3 tables outside. I was just going to get a drink but was also provided with a food menu. They had a Fluffy Egg Breakfast Sandwich. It sounded good so I went ahead and ordered it. I also asked for a Chaga Matcha and a Vanilla Latte to try. The food came out first. The sandwich was very delicious. The egg indeed was very fluffy. I loved that they provided a chili oil to add to the sandwich. The bread tasted very good. If I remember correctly, they make their own bread! The latte was good. The coffee is on the stronger side, which I liked. The matcha tasted a bit on the sweeter side. The staff was very friendly and checked on me to ensure everything was tasting good. Overall, I would definitely come back to try more items.

The service was extremely slow to start--we waited a while just for water and to get drink orders taken. We ordered the Ahi tuna appetizer, which was good, but the course pacing completely fell apart after that. Our salads took 25 minutes to arrive. Before I could even get the fresh ground pepper I requested, our main courses were rushed to the table while we hadn't even started our salads. The food quality was unacceptable for an upscale restaurant: Both my wife and I ordered our steaks medium-rare. Mine arrived completely leathery, dry as a bone, and thoroughly overcooked. I didn't eat a single bite of it. My wife's steak arrived medium-well, and her side of rice was completely dry. The bottle of red wine we ordered from their very small wine list was served warm. When we declined having the steak re-fired or free dessert, we finished our wine and asked for the check. The $62 inedible steak was still on the bill, so I asked to speak with the owner. When I calmly explained the issues, the owner became angry that I didn't want the steak redone and walked away mid-conversation. He eventually came back, removed the $62 steak, and told us he didn't want us back in his restaurant. To top it off, for an establishment charging fine-dining prices where guests dress up, the owner was wearing shorts and sneakers. One chance is all a restaurant gets to make a good impression. Lincoln House missed the mark completely. We will not be returning.

You'll be sitting there clearly waiting for service while servers walk by repeatedly without checking in or seeming to know what's going on. At this point, you're honestly better off just walking up to the bar and ordering your drinks yourself rather than waiting for someone to come to your table. I really want to like this place because the atmosphere is great, but the service seriously needs better organization, training, and attentiveness. It shouldn't be this difficult to order a drink.
