    Coffee options definitely hit. Matcha was eh, more on the lighter/milky taste. The salted cream on top was good though. Service was nice and quick. Place is cute and small.

    Creme Brulee viet coffee
    David L.

    I had been hearing a lot about this place and finally got a chance to try it, last time I stopped by, I didn't realize they were closed on Monday! I asked for a Creme Brulee Viet coffee, and my coworker stopped by to grab one for me. He said the place wasn't too packed when he went, and the service was quick. I looked at the coffee and thought it looked pretty good already, mixed it up a bit, and took a sip, and wow, what a combo of the Creme Brulee with the jolt of the Vietnamese Coffee. I enjoyed the flavors that it brought and wish I had finished this earlier in the day, rather than later in the afternoon. Truth be told, I had a harder time sleeping that night than when I normally have my regular cup of coffee ;D.

    Banana Matcha with extra Matcha Shot
    Jessica N.

    Such a cute cafe near SFSU, when I went parking was easy to find. Going into the Cafe it's super easy to order, drinks are made per order but service is quick. It's a nice place to sip on some matcha and chill, I was there for a quick break before heading out to the city. Great pick me up and the banana matcha had a natural banana flavor! I know some places can taste a bit artificial and I didn't taste that here. I also like the option to add an extra matcha shot to make it stronger. I totally want to visit again when I'm down in the city again.

    Tried this spot for the first time, my friend ordered through doordash. First of all, it came in a super cute cup with a cute sticker. I decided to try the banana cream matcha (regular sweet), I felt that the matcha and cream ratio was very good. I also liked the fact that the banana didn't taste artificial like some other cafes. Matcha was strong enough that you can taste the matcha which I really enjoyed. Overall, it was a very tasty drink. I would like to try the salted viet coffee next time or the creme brulee viet coffee.

    Crème Brûlée Viet Coffee

    I tried their banana cream matcha latte and it was really good! I'd definitely come back again to order an iced matcha latte. I also tasted their crème brulee Vietnamese coffee and loved the flavor. I feel like you can't go wrong with any of their drinks.

    Being a campus type of business that caters to mainly college students, the boba was decent. Not the best but not the worst. I like how transparent they are when it comes to how many grams of matcha is used per drink. Lots of seating and parking can be hit or miss. service was really great and interior settings was dark but pleasant.

    Banana Cream Viet Coffee
    Scott L.

    Found a place that has good Viet Coffee. I am obsessed with their Banana Creme and Salted Creme Viet Coffees. Nice STRONG coffee as a base.

    The cutest shop in a little strip mall serving up the best hand whisked banana matcha lattes. You have to check it out. Such chill service. Seating inside but none outside!

    Parking: Medium size plaza decent amount of spots. Lot was packed but there's also street parking. Interior: Limited seating for medium size groups unless you combine all the tables. Not too buys. Clean and nice ambiance. Good study spot. Wait Time: 5-10min for drinks. None to order. Items Order: 10/10 Black Sesame Coffee $6.75 - black sesame flavor was strong and on point! coffee was also strong and sweet and creamy. WOULD REC 6/10 Strawberry Matcha $7.5 - very mid overall with the matcha and strawberry compote. would not recommend the matcha here

    Cafe phin for slow drip coffee

    Was looking for Vietnamese inspired coffee like Da Vien in SoCal and stumbled across Jade and Java. What drew me was the banana and sesame Vietnamese coffee, which isn't something sold at most coffee and boba shops in the peninsula. Ordered the pistachio and sesame Vietnamese coffee. The coffee is strong! Can customize ice and sweetness levels too. Parking can be a bit tight as the lot is shared among many other shops and it's in the middle of Park Merced so can be a bit difficult to find. Ordering was a breeze and if you have Snackpass, you can earn rewards by continuing to shop there. At 7-7.50 a drink, it's about in line with other boba/drinks now so I think it's good value. Especially bc the coffee is strong! Will come back to try other coffees and their matcha drinks too. Matcha drinks look to be handmade upon ordering (not mass produced ahead of time, which is nice to see)

    Banana cream matcha, creme brûlée matcha
    Andrew M.

    A cute little cafe located right next to SFSU that has both coffee and matcha for everyone. I've tried them through DoorDash and going in person and I can say their drink quality stays the same for both. Unfortunately, the last time I went I felt like the matcha taste was too strong for my liking but my wife loves their drinks. Drinks come out fast and the baristas are super nice. If I need a quick pick me up this place would definitely be up for consideration

    Very cute little coffee shop near the SFSU campus, and open late, until 7 PM! They specialize in Vietnamese coffee and matcha drinks with unique cream toppings, and also have some fruit tea options. You order at one of two kiosks in the front. There are small tables and a bench for seating, and a bathroom in the back. I could see this being a nice place to catch up with friends over drinks! I got a banana cream matcha with oat milk ($0.80) and an extra shot of matcha ($3). Everyone else got Vietnamese coffee and between all of us we tried the salted cream, banana cream, and black sesame cream coffees. I loved my matcha and the banana cream had such strong banana flavor. I'm not sure if I would've liked it as much without the additional shot of matcha, but I'll have to try it next time. I also thought it was a pretty reasonable price for a matcha latte, starting at $7.25 - some places are getting up to $10+. I'm not a coffee person, but heard that the coffees were strong and flavorful. Seems like a really nice addition to the area, especially for students. Would be even better if they could partner with a local bakery to offer some pastries, and a few more non-caffeinated options since there's only one on the current menu.

    I've tried their drinks multiple times, but it's my first time visiting their actual location. I really really love their matcha here. The ratio of matcha to the other ingredients is perfectly curated to my taste. It doesn't taste like grass LOL. The banana cream matcha is mt favorite. Nothing too special with the ambiance inside. Overall, this is one of my go-to matcha spots.
