    Cold brew was okay but matcha was really tasty prices feel reasonable and cheaper than some other shops. I like that flavoring/sweetener is just $.25. I also got a pup cup and love that they donate the cost (optional) to a local nonprofit for animals. Cute indoor and outdoor seating.

    Great coffee, delicious croissants and nice seating options. Friendly and helpful barista and overall good vibes.

    Kind Grounds has a solid flat white! I do recommend it. Very tasty! Both indoor and outdoor patio seating available as well as restrooms. Many come to pick up and go or stay with their laptops. Parking can be tricky - there used to be parking out front but it's prohibited now and only neighborhood parking available.

    Love this small little coffee shop! There is a cute little garden patio, but it is quite small. Tables are very close together and you'll likely overhear conversation conversations haha. There is indoor seating, I saw some people working from their laptops as well. Drinks are tasty and the staff is very kind. Would def come back for a coffee date with my girlfriends. Street parking only but there's ample sidewalk space in the surrounding neighborhoods

    Matcha Latte and Strawberry Vanilla Latte

    Ordered a strawberry vanilla latte with espresso and a matcha latte. Their coffee is great, but the matcha is lacking in strength and flavor. There is a cute patio in the back with pretty foliage, and the inside is quiet and clean. The barista was so sweet and knowledgeable. She was enthusiastic to answer all our questions!

    There's limited spots to park on the side of the building. Friendly baristas. Got the unsweetened rosemary latte and it was good. Definitely don't like the lattes too sweet. :)

    Really cute coffee shop with a chill vibe and friendly staff. 3 stars is only for their iced oatmilk latte. Not sure what kind of oatmilk they use but it tasted like water. It didn't have the usual oatmilk creaminess to it. Maybe it was a mix that needed to be shaken up a bit...dunno. But I wish I had enjoyed it because that's the only plant based milk I enjoy. Doubt I'll be back.

    This coffee shop was so aesthetic inside and had really nice seating! I would have loved to stay and read a book in the coffee shop. I grabbed a coffee to-go from here and the espresso was incredible. They also have parking in the back which is always nice.

    Ambiance: 10/10 Parking: neighborhood parking found in 5 min Prices: not great Seating: About 2 tables inside and 2 outside open at 2 pm on a Thursday. The strawberry matcha was good but it was strawberry nesquick lol and they charge $7.50 for a medium + 25 cents for "light ice" that's insanity.

    I've been here twice now and have been impressed both times! I got their seasonal drink, which was their twist on an orange dreamsicle coffee. Their pricing isn't cheap or unreasonably expensive either, so for the quality and consistency, I would say it's worth returning. Last time I got their strawberry espresso latte. They are really good at making their flavors come out. I prefer less sweet drinks so I consider their drinks to be on the sweeter side for me, but I wouldn't think the average person considers them to be too sweet. Parking is usually fairly easy on the street right out front. It's pretty tough to find a place to sit, but the line moves fast. Really small but cute space!

    Very very disappointed. This is a place that I love to stop at to get an iced Matcha whenever I'm in the area This time, I asked for a Matcha with honey, but she made me a latte with honey, and when I kindly corrected her that I asked for a Matcha and not a latte - she remade it without apologizing and handed me green milk. A tasteless bland, honey Matcha latte..

    Such a hidden gem! I got an iced oat milk latte and a sandwich, and both were absolutely delicious. The latte was smooth and flavorful, and the sandwich was so fresh and satisfying. I really appreciated that there was parking available- always a nice bonus. The interior is super cute with a cozy and stylish vibe that makes you want to hang out for a while. It is a bit on the pricey side, but honestly, totally worth it in my opinion. I will definitely be back!

    a cute little (maybe more like medium sized) coffee shop!…read more for ambiance: there are a handful of tables (that can fill up quick), a bunch of natural lighting, and nice music in the background that's not too distracting. it can get a little noisy in here at times, but for the most part it's okay the staff who helped me out is pretty nice as well! i asked them for recommendations as well, which led me to getting an iced vanilla latte. it has a nice coffee flavor, but it is a tad bit on the sweeter side overall, super pleasant experience!

    Food: I tried the 7 grain muffin before giving it to my 2…read moreyear old, and it was perfect for him! It barely had any sugar in it, which I loved because coffee shops usually never have healthier options. He also really liked it, which is a win! I also tried the vegan chocolate chip cookie and shared it with two other people so we could all give it a try. We all loved it! I got the Iced 7th Inning Stretch, and mannnn oh man, it really shocked me with how unique the color and the taste were! Like I've said before, sadly some coffee shops have the looks but not the taste. This place has both, win win again! My boyfriend got the hot mocha latte, and that was really good too. Service: The cashier was super nice, and I told her it was my first time visiting. She explained every seasonal drink they had and even let me know one of them had peanut butter in it in case I had any allergies. I really appreciated that! Good thing I gave it a try because I usually don't like peanut butter, but this was so good (honestly, I couldn't even taste the peanut butter for anyone who's like me). I ended up going back and ordering another drink. This time it was another cashier, and she was just as nice! I asked for it without ice and explained how I still wanted it to taste really good and not watered down. She said she'd do me the favor of separating everything into cups. That kind of service is definitely memorable! Ambiance: Inside was super cute. I loved that there were small tables for people coming alone, and there was also a huge table in the back near the restroom with a big window that could seat at least 5-7 people. They had music playing but at a nice, comfortable level. Parking was super easy to find outside. I didn't ask if they have a parking structure, but they might. The only thing I didn't like was that there were no toilet seat covers in the restroom. It was super clean, but I always like to use those just to be safe. That's the only thing I'd say needs a little work. Overall, 10/10 for customer service, ambiance, and food/drinks! I will definitely be coming back!

    As the Pastor of Venice Free Methodist Church in Del Rey (right next to Playa Vista), we were…read morepreparing for Easter with the theme "Come to the Table"--centered on the invitation of Jesus in Bible (Revelation 3:20), where He welcomes all to dine with Him. As I was working through my message, I had the idea to include a visual illustration--a charcuterie setup to represent the abundant life Jesus offers. Right away, I thought of Alex and Olivia at Joliet Cafe. I've enjoyed Joliet Cafe for years-- whether I've come by in the day to get delicious coffee, or enjoyed the restaurant on a romantic night out with the wife - the food is always outstanding. Alex is truly a masterful chef! So just a couple of weeks before Easter, I reached out with this idea. Not only was he open to it, but he took the time to understand the vision and bring it to life. On the day of, Alex arrived early and prepared a beautiful, abundant "feast" that fit the message perfectly. It didn't just look incredible--it tasted amazing. After the service, we placed the charcuterie next to our lunch table, and it was gone quickly! So many people commented on how delicious and well-presented everything was. I share all this to say: Alex's professionalism, creativity, skill, and flexibility make him an incredible choice for charcuterie boards, catering, or any culinary service. He truly delivers--and you will not be disappointed. Thank you again for helping make Easter such a meaningful and special day!

    Menotti's coffee stop - you sure have me stopping by as a regular!…read more I feel like most coffee shops are a one and done for me considering how picky I am with my coffee, but this spot is always a must-visit after my Pilates session. They have a few shops in Los Angeles and Tokyo (with one opening dangerously near me in West LA), and I'm always drawn back to try their new, innovative seasonal drinks. While their coffee is a bit of a lighter roast than I prefer, their current spring special - a Sakura black sesame Hojicha latte is easily one of the BEST Hojicha drinks I've ever had, and I hope they keep it on the menu or introduce more Hojicha drinks to the lineup. Highly recommend checking them out if one is in your area (or if you see them at Coachella) for unforgettable cafe drinks!

I also got a chocolate chip cookie which -- on the advice of my server -- I warmed up when I got home (I bought it as an after dinner treat). Damn, that was a good cookie. And I thought it was big because, well, it was, but it wasn't super heavy or anything. As for the place itself, it was nice and spread out and airy. There were a lot of chairs, though it didn't have any outdoor seats. The staff, as I alluded to, were very friendly, and my drink was ready right away. As for parking, there's meters out front, but nothing on the side streets. But that's pretty typical for the area.
