Super cute coffee shop! The service was AMAZING the two…read moregirls working were super friendly and very efficient. I got the Vietnamese coffee which was really good I feel like the powder gives it a bit of a different taste but a good taste! I also got a bagel and it was very tasty. Parking lot is big but some signs say 20 mins for certain spots. They offer wifi so I would recommend this place for work or study. They definitely had a good amount of regulars which made me realize I had made a good choice by coming here. They definitely remember the regulars which I think it goes a long way. This is a one off but while I was there somehow it was a small hiccup and someone got the wrong drink ( a genuine accident) when they realized they felt so bad but one of the girls ran to get the customer and made sure she got the right drink the girls were so apologetic. The customer was also very understanding. I thought that was great to witness! I would deff come back here!

Another shop with flavor options. I'm really one to enjoy flavorful fancy drinks but dang a drink…read morehere can cost up to $8. Most recently I got the mango sticky matcha and it's good marine need more of their mango sticky rice because once mixed the flavor is muted. I tried the turon and it's just alright. Felt like it didn't showcase the turon flavor. The Amari signature is a classic you can't go wrong and the Vietnamese coffees. They have additions you can add such as boba and I want to say I got it before and the texture was good but I may have to try again.

It's been three years since my last review so I figured an update is due. STILL my favorite matcha…read morespot and I have tried many around LA and OC. The quality is just amazing and I prefer the matcha profile here compared to other places. Another favorite is their hojicha lattes!! So umami and fresh and nutty. I'm addicted! Dare I say I might like it better than matcha?! Blasphemy right?! No no, that would be insane. I like them equally. Just depends on my mood. Also, I would like to think my review made them change their straws! They're much better now! Love a place that takes feedback seriously!

Yamari is a matcha shop located inside the Mitsuwa food court in Del Amo Mall. There is a new 2nd…read moreYamari location at the Mitsuwa food court in Cypress. Yamari specializes in Uji matcha straight from Kyoto. [Parking]: The parking lot for Mitsuwa can get busy during the weekend, but it is not impossible to find an open spot. [Ordering]: There was no long waiting line and I was able to get my order within 5 minutes after placing an order at the counter. [Menu]: Yelp's top highlighted items are Iced Matcha Lattes, Strong Uji Matcha Green Tea (sweetened), and Stone Ground Uji Matcha (contains no sugar or milk). They offer small, medium, and large sizes for their drinks. In addition, they also sell hojicha drinks as well as parfaits and soft-serve ice cream. *** Strong Uji matcha green tea (sweetened - small $4.50): The matcha flavor was strong alright. The drink did hit the spot and the sweetness level was about right. Mixed Soft Serve (half matcha and half hojicha - $6.75): Ice cream had a strong matcha flavor, but the texture didn't hit the spot. It would be nicer if the flavor was slightly less dense as this ice cream really made me want to drink more water afterward. The milk chocolate was a nice add-on, but I am not sure if it was really needed. *** I would stick with their drinks and there are better soft-serve matcha ice creams in Los Angeles (e.g. Meccha Matcha in Artesia or Tea Master Matcha Cafe & Green Tea Shop in Little Tokyo).
