    Matcha Horchata
    Mary A.

    Placed an order for pickup and it was ready almost immediately, which was super convenient. I do wish the website let you schedule a pickup time instead of defaulting to ASAP though. I got a medium matcha horchata ($7). The cup size felt a bit small for the price, but the drink itself was delicious! Very cinnamon-forward and creamy. Definitely something I'd order again. The shop has a nice vibe and would be a great spot to study. Staff were also very friendly, and there's plenty of parking in the lot.

    Mazapan Latte

    It's time for a much-needed update! This is my most visited coffee shop. Jesse's Grind has a warm, inviting environment. It's the kind of place where you can comfortably grab a coffee and relax or chat with friends. The shop is always clean and well-kept. This shop is known for Latin-inspired drinks. They also offer breakfast sandwiches, matcha drinks, teas, pastries, and much more! My favorite drinks are the Dirty Horchata Latte, the Mazapán Latte, and the Abuelita Latte. I also like pairing my coffee with a coffee cake or a cheese danish. Their coffee cake has a very similar recipe to the one I remember from grade school. Let's talk about the Dirty Horchata Latte. This is by far my most favorite drink from this shop. In fact, it is hands-down my favorite drink overall in the entire valley. This drink consists of espresso, horchata, and your choice of milk. This shop makes their horchata from scratch and uses an authentic recipe. The drink is creamy, smooth, and sweet, yet well-balanced. I always recommend this drink to anyone who asks me about this shop. Next, let's talk about the Mazapan Latte. Mazapan is a Mexican peanut candy that is sweet, slightly grainy, and richly nutty. This translates to a comforting, peanut-forward sweetness mixed with espresso. This shop even mixes actual Mazapan pieces into the coffee! This is my third favorite drink. Now, let's talk about the Abuelita Latte. This is a specialty latte inspired by the classic Mexican Abuelita hot chocolate, which is made from rich, cinnamon-spiced Mexican chocolate. This latte blends those warm, chocolatey, and cinnamon notes with espresso and your choice of milk. It makes for a Mexican-style mocha. This is my second favorite drink. I've also tried their Matcha Horchata, although I'm a novice when it comes to matcha. This drink was earthy, creamy, and smooth. As mentioned above, the coffee cake from this shop brings back memories of grade school. Their recipe is spot-on with the one the LAUSD schools used. The coffee cake is always a safe option at this shop and pairs well with any of the coffees. The cheese danish from this shop is polished and indulgent. This is my backup choice when there's no coffee cake available. The service at this shop is excellent for the most part. The employees are always helpful, cheerful, and happy to answer any questions. As an added bonus for me, Jesse (the owner) and her mom always take the time to ask how I'm doing, the perks of being a regular. That makes my experiences even more special! Overall, this shop nails comfort & creativity, Latin-inspired drinks, cozy atmosphere, great service, and pastries that pair perfectly with their coffees.

    finally got to visit in person after a run club! ive tried their coffee out at a pop up and my client brought me a matcha before-- both really yummy! i loveeeeee the logo and slogan on the ground it looks amazing. they also have a new mural in the back thats vibrant and beautiful. theres indoor and outdoor seating, plenty of street parking and a small lot in the back. the drink options are great and i was shocked to see they had a full glass case of pastries! it all looked super good and i was eyeing a lot of the sandwiches/bagels they were making. i ordered "the jesse" and it was very cinnamon heavy and was the perfect amount of sweetness. i like their cups too lol the small is the perfect size for me. would love to visit again and try more off their menu.

    Came here today finally after hearing about this place, unfortunately came a little late for some of the food, so definitely need to go earlier in the morning. I ordered the matcha horchata and have to say it was so delicious, honestly I did not think those flavors would work together but they did. Can't wait to come back and try more of the drinks.

    Iced Spanish latte
    Stephanie B.

    Great service & super cute vibes overall. They have a variety of different specialty drinks that are Mexican inspired. I had the iced Spanish latte and my husband got the mazapán latte. We both got an extra shot in our drinks but they didn't taste like coffee at all. Good flavor but wish they used stronger coffee

    Dirty Horchata Latte ( Large )
    Javier R.

    I used to be genuinely obsessed with this place coming 2-3 times a week even though it's not close to me. My go-to was the iced large horchata latte (which was already on the smaller side). Now they've taken the large off the menu completely and only offer small or medium. I totally understand inflation and rising costs, and I would've happily paid more for a large. It's just hard to justify almost $7 for a medium in the San Fernando Valley. I stopped going to big chains to support local Latino-owned shops, so this one stings a little. Respectfully... us Latinos aren't Barbies. We like our coffee how we like our culture: strong and in larger portions. Still rooting for this place, just hoping one day the large makes a triumphant return.

    I have so much to say about Jesse's Grind. I've been coming here since before they blew up since I only live down the street. They are amazing. Period. The most beautifully decorated coffee shop you'll ever see with an amazing mural painted inside. The layout, the plants, the fact that you can basically see their entire kitchen area (VERY clean) Everything just makes sense. As for the people, everyone is so lovely. So welcoming, always with a smile. Jesse is amazing, LOVE JESSE! I always come with my dog too and everyone always gets so excited and they always offer my dog a little pup cup. Their menu is incredible. So unique and all the flavors work so well as lattes. I never knew that my favorite mexican candy can turn in to a drink. Some of my favorite drinks I need to mention are: Dirty Oatchata, Mazapan Latte, Honey Oat, Blueberry Latte (seasonal), and their Rose Latte. Honestly, you can't go wrong with any drink. Also honorable mention is their breakfast bagel. SOOOOOO yummy! I highly recommend coming here for a new and unique taste!

    This might be my favorite of the recent coffee shops I've been to around the west valley. The vibe here is just right. It feels effortlessly cozy. The folks working here seem like they're locked in with the community. The coffee itself is on point. The roast had a perfect balance in flavor. I ordered a latte and it was served at the perfect temp. There's a nice area to study and plenty of seating with an appropriate ambient noise level. You won't fight to hold a conversation.

    Had to run it back! The cloud honey and Mazapan Latte are fire! Service is always great!

    That dirty oatchata is yummy!

    I was first introduced to Jesse's Grind when my sister hired Jesse for a private birthday event, and let me tell you, it was love at first sip! My family and I are big iced coffee lovers, and her iced coffee was delicious, smooth, and not overly strong (just perfect!). When I found out she had her own shop, I knew I had to support. I started making the drive whenever I could, and it's always worth it. The shop is super cute, and one of my favorite parts is seeing Jesse's family there, all working together and supporting her dream. it's inspiring to watch people truly "make it happen." The staff is always friendly and welcoming, and the vibe makes you want to come back again and again. If you're looking for a recommendation, do yourself a favor and try the iced Dirty Oatchata. it's my go to every single time. It does get busy sometimes and parking can be a little tricky, but just circle the lot and you'll find a spot (totally worth the wait). And now with a second location opening soon, I couldn't be more excited to see this business grow. I'll always recommend Jesse's Grind to my fellow iced coffee lovers, pull up and thank me later!

    I was in the area for the weekend and of course I'm going to hit up a cafe. I am so glad we got to visit Jesse's Grind because there was a lot to love! I appreciate that their menu offers a spanish flare. I wanted to try everything but we settled for the Abuelita latte and the Vanilla with Canela latte. Both sooooo good! I absolutely loved the customer service - he was patient with me as I couldn't decide what I wanted. He was patient enough to explain the differences and was super accommodating. I also loved the ambiance - super cozy and inviting. There's space to sit and get comfy to either chat it up with friends or sit and do some work/homework. I also appreciated that their was merch available! I would definitely recommend!

    S'mores Latte (L) Galleta Latte (R)
    Jackie E.

    I like their: Breakfast bagel sandwich So good! All ingredients taste nice and fresh. Very filling. They don't skimp on quality. You're getting real eggs. S'mores Latte AGAVE MOCHA, ESPRESSO, ROASTED MARSHMALLOW CREME ICED Seasonal but so yummy! I'm a sucker for anything s'mores. Service is so great. They're small business, but provide great service. They seem really clean as well. It's a small cafe so it's perfect for a coffee date for two but you might have trouble with a larger group. Jesse's is great and a good alternative to the if you don't mind getting out your car to order.

    Abuelita Latte
    Arianne M.

    First time stopping by and I was craving some Mexican hot chocolate-like drink. Front of the house rep recommended the Abuelita Latte so I got the smallest size 12oz, 2% milk, easy ice for about $6.25? A bit pricey for a 12oz, but dang the drink is creamy, cinnamon-y essence, with those Mexican flavors. I'll come again if I'm interested in a sweet drink/pick-me-up.

The deli sandwiches, pesto chicken panini, and vegetarian wraps were all incredibly fresh and generously filled with high quality meats, cheeses, and perfectly baked bread. Each sandwich had its own unique dressing, which elevated the flavors to another level: bold, well balanced and anythng but ordinary. The potato salad and mac n' cheese salad were creamy, rich and full of flavor, making them the perfect savory side dishes that trully complemented the meal. The fresh fruit and salad platters were impressive on their own: vibrant, crisp and prepared with top quality ingredients. Everything tasted fresh and made with care.

While the exterior might be unassuming, stepping inside is a delight.

The background music was perfectly chosen, setting a wonderful tone for the meal. The warm hospitality started immediately; every staff member, including our wonderful server, Savannah, greeted us with a genuine smile. The menu offers a fantastic variety, but the food itself was the true highlight. We shared three items, and everything was executed flawlessly: * Belgian Waffles: Simply perfect. They maintained an incredible crunch, had the ideal level of sweetness without extra syrup, and were truly loaded with fresh bananas and berries. * Spinach, Queso Fresco, and Mashed Avocado: A perfectly balanced and fresh combination. * Chimichurri Steak Quesadilla: Absolutely heavenly. A special shout-out must go to their side of potatoes--they were the most perfectly formed and flavored potatoes I have ever had! We loved the food so much we immediately ordered another side of potatoes and another round of waffles. The service from our server, Savannah, was A++++. Her attentiveness elevated the whole experience. I am already planning my next visit and will be enthusiastically recommending Main Kitchen Bar and Grill to everyone!

I usually order this same meal and genuinely love it, but today just felt like a miss. The toast was extremely thin and hard--almost more like a crisp than bread. I asked if there was another option or even just a different slice, but was told that all the bread was like that, which was surprising since that hasn't been my experience here before. The house-made jam was also off today--it was much more watery than usual and didn't have that same rich texture I'm used to. The potatoes were underwhelming as well--lacking seasoning and slightly burnt. I will say, the server was kind and did bring out a vegan date pastry after I had already received my bill, which I appreciated. It just wasn't something I would typically choose, and nothing was adjusted on the bill. For the price, I just expected more consistency and care, especially from a place I usually really enjoy. I don't mind paying for a good meal, but today it just wasn't up to par. I'm hoping this was just an off day because I've had much better experiences here in the past and would love to see them get back to that.

Weekends will be busy and there will be a wait for a table, but I ventured in with some friends on a Wednesday, and we were quickly seated. On this occasion, our server took a fairly long time to come to our table, and was very low energy. One got the sense that she may have been preoccupied with some things, but she was still professional and did everything that needed to be done, so let's just chalk up the lack of enthusiasm to a Wednesday blues. I ordered the Hash Benedict, which replaces the traditional Canadian bacon with Corned Beef Hash but otherwise has all the usual Benedict elements. The eggs were poached nicely, with just the right amount of "runniness" to them, and the Hollandaise sauce had a pleasingly acidic bite and an enjoyably light consistency. The corned beef hash, however, was unmemorable. Not much flavor and perhaps a bit too heavy for adding so little taste to the dish. One friend ordered the Fort Lox, which is the Nook's take on the Jewish deli staple, Lox, Eggs and Onions. It was a generous portion, expertly scrambled, and served with properly browned breakfast potatoes. He ate every bite, and enjoyed it. His wife ordered the Big Mamma Omelette: eggs whites folded over spinach, veggie sausage, garlic, jalapenos and mushrooms, then topped with melted mozzarella. This was also a very generous portion, again served with nicely browned potatoes. Lots of ingredients, lots of flavor, and lots of satisfaction. All in all, this was a good, mid-week breakfast, though I'd not order the hash again (that's a personal thing), and I hope our server finds some bliss in the coming days.
