    Vietnamese Coffee with Salted Foam and Taro Milk Tea with Taro chunks
    Komal R.

    The vietnamese coffee here is legit! So strong and slightly too sweet but add the salted cold foam on top and it is perfect!! The Taro milk tea was delicious and mildly sweet - they use Jasmine tea which added a subtle fragrance to the drink. You can add any toppings you may like, we just got the Taro chunks and it was so yummy and filling!

    Passionfruit Green Tea Coffee Frap
    Cheri S.

    Cute little shop on Washington Ave. I walked passed it often and decided to give it a try. The drinks were reasonably priced but I didn't enjoy my passion fruit tea as much as I wanted to. I got 50% sweetness and it tasted like 100%. Despite that, the ice blended coffee was good. Also small detail, they never called us up to tell us our order was ready... so we sat there for a while waiting before we got up to ask about the drinks. The tables and chairs were also very sticky and could use a simple wiping down. Overall I would try again just get something different.

    Grilled pork banh mi and coconut Coconut Coffee Latte
    Jess M.

    What a great place! Coffee was amazing just the right amount of sweet and the banh mi had amazing flavors and tasted very fresh! Service was so nice and helpful! Picked up some pokemon cards at a decent price as well. Would definitely recommend and come back! Thank you!

    Salted Foam Coffee
    Thuy H.

    The coffee was soooo good esp with the foam on top. I didn't think it was overly sweet and packed some punch to it. Space was very clean and service was nice and fast. We came in a large party of about 9 people. Didn't wait very long for our drinks at all.

    There's an ordering station if you don't want contact. This is my new Viet coffee spot. Love the egg foam coffee with egg pudding. Also ordered the Viet coffee with condensed milk with coffee jelly. I came back another day and ordered the green Thai tea and red Thai tea which both were good but the green Thai tea surprised me. The green Thai tea was earthy and I came back the third day to order the green Thai tea and avocado smoothie. Spot is still in its soft opening so there is a huge open space which can be filled with more tables and chairs when business improves.

    Pennywort and Mung Bean
    Vinson G.

    Tucked in the same plaza as Ba Le and Grand Palace restaurant, Levien Cafe caught my eye as I walked past due to their decor. The place is nice and spacious, with Halloween decor everywhere when I went. The fixtures were modern and there was even a small shop within this cafe that sells Pokémon cards. The menu is mostly Vietnamese style coffee, with other drinks such as smoothies and teas. I decided to get the pennywort and mung bean drink since I was parched and this sounded the most "healthy" drink on their menu. This drink is known as a herbal drink that has good health benefits. Although there was no one in line, the drink took over 40 minutes to come out! Everyone in there was already seated and well situated but I guess the speed the drinks came out in general was slow as people were barely starting to get their drinks a while AFTER I ordered. The drink was a bit below average. I have had this drink before and it did not taste like this. I saw they don't use fresh pennywort so that could be the main contributing factor. It came out of a bottle that looked like what I could buy at the grocery store across the street! I also noticed the fruit syrups they used so be aware that their fruit drinks do not use fresh fruit either! Overall, I would say try their coffees as that seemed to be their most popular drink items, but avoid their "fruit" drinks.

    Cold cut banh mi
    Nary K.

    This place is in the same spot as the International All You Can Eat Korean BBQ Buffet (all my millennials know) from back in the day (early-mid 2000s). Their Vietnamese iced coffee is delicious and I can't wait to try the salted foam coffee. Their wings and fries have good flavor but I do prefer my wings a little crispier. But you can't beat the price. I also tried their traditional banh mi and it was very tasty as well.

    Egg Foam Coffee
    Sarah H.

    Popped into this cute viet cafe in South Philly and I came back a second time because the egg foam coffee was really good. I think it has a good balance between the sweetness and strong bitter coffee taste. Definitely kept me caffeinated throughout the day ‍ They have a couple of tables which is perfect for a work sesh in a cute cafe!

    Iced Coconut Coffee
    Valarie D.

    I got the iced coconut coffee which had the perfect amount of sweetness and server/cashier was super welcoming!

    [LEFT TO RIGHT] Lychee Green Tea with Lychee Jelly, Salted Foam Coffee, Pink Guava Green Tea with Egg Pudding, Jasmine Milk Tea
    Julia T.

    I recently visited Levien Cafe with my family and I'll definitely be coming back to try more of their drinks/food. I got their Jasmine Milk Tea, which they made with just the right amount of sweetness and a nice tea-to-milk ratio. The ambiance of the cafe was cozy and welcoming, making it a great spot to relax and enjoy a cup. Service was friendly and efficient as well!

    New fresh bubble tea store just open about one week. Store clean and spacious! The sea-salt coffee is good to try! My baby and I love the Levien egg pudding in my Pink Guava Green tea.

    I'm actually really upset that I stopped by this café... and let me tell you why…read more I'm not from the area--in fact, I live in Los Angeles, about 2,700 miles away. My family and I were in Philly for a World Cup match and decided to stop in for a chai latte and a coffee. There was a short line, and when it was our turn, we were greeted by the sweetest employee. She was incredibly welcoming, patient, and took the time to explain the different coffee blends they offered. We ended up getting the Colombia blend, which my husband absolutely loved. Now, why do I regret coming here? Because this was, without a doubt, the BEST chai latte I have ever had in my life. It completely ruined every other chai latte for me. The bar has been set so high that every chai I've had since has been a disappointment. I can't wait to make it back to Philly!

    Industrial-esque decor, a little tucked away in an alley and I think it fits the vibe of the…read moresurrounding area! People come here to work a lot it seems. Inside AC is blasting (in a good way) so if you run cold, bring your jacket! I don't think the chairs are that comfy to stay long, and not very suitable to have a coffee yap with friends. If you buy their coffee beans (which is so economical!!) you'll get a free drink of choice!! I had their pumpkin spice latte w oat milk and it was tasty! Not overtly sweet and tasted like autumn and crunchy leaves! The staff seemed very nice and knowledgeable, not pretentious!

I got an iced latte, the Jerusalem Bage withl Smoked Salmon Scallion Cream Cheese, Cucumbers, Pickled Red Onions it was incredible. Jerusalem bagel incredibly fresh, not too much cream cheese and the pickled red onions were a great twist, cutting the deep fat of the cheese and the salmon. I would highly recommend this place. The woman at the counter was helpful and the service was pretty fast for a Sunday morning.

The inside is really modern and aesthetic, while still giving off a cozy cafe feel. Service was nothing crazy, but nothing bad either. The Yemenite Latte was a 4/10 for me. The flavor was spot on and tasted like milk with Yemeni spices and just a hint of espresso. I really wish the espresso came through more because I think that would've made it perfect. The Pistachio Sticky Bun was an 8/10 and definitely worth the hype. It was served warm and had the soft, pillowy texture of a cinnamon roll, but with a syrupy pistachio flavor. It practically melts in your mouth. The Grilled Cheese Jerusalem Bagel was basically a grilled cheese, but I loved the thin, slightly crisp shell and all the sesame seeds on the bagel. The cheese had almost a pimento cheese flavor, which I really liked. 9/10.
