    Tried the strawberry soufflé and it was really soft and yummy with real strawberries and a tasty yogurt (?) cream. It's pretty pricey ($16-$17), but worth trying at least once. There are various flavors to try and the drinks are the same - variety of flavors. We ordered a brown sugar boba milk tea before realizing how many other choices there were. It's not a very big place and the decor is typical of a drink/dessert place. It got really busy -probably because it was Friday night and people like to hang out. There was a line out the door, but it moved surprisingly quickly. Drink orders came out fast but you have to wait a bit for the soufflé. If it's busy, finding a table might be a challenge, but getting things to go seemed fine. It's in a plaza so there's parking, but it's a busy plaza so you might have to park underground.

    My favorite souffle pancake spot! I accidentally posted on gram cafe and realized 7 months later because i tried them around the same time. But motto is def way better. I dont get sick of eating it whereas gram i was starting to get bored of the taste. This one is sooo airy and soft and doesnt taste too eggy. The drinks are alright though nothing special

    Sure you can order a bubble tea here, but at Motto Tea Cafe, I think the big question is how long does it take to make a souffle pancake from scratch? When I visited, they were taking about 20 minutes. Mango Sunshine Soufflé Pancake: This really is a triple stack of golden sunshine. Like many have said, it's jiggly and fluffy. When they set the plate on the table, the stack wobbles for a moment. The cake is soft and squishy, definitely entering the classification of a souffle or pudding. The pancake melts in your mouth. Is it a cloud? It's so light and airy. Does it contain meringue? It's also a bit spongy. The stack is topped with a sweet cream and mango sauce. Sweet pineapples, strawberries, and blueberries form a perimeter around the pancakes. Parking: The u-shaped lot is big and it also has underground parking.

    Delicious souffle pancakes with great fluffy texture and flavor! This location can get quite busy so there are times it's difficult to even find a seat, and when you do come during busy times, expect to wait 20-30 minutes for your pancakes to come out. They also have a good selection of drinks which are a great pairing to your pancakes. It's definitely a great dessert spot as you get your fix on both small bites and a drink. I got the Mango in kyoto which was nice and sweet from the mango balanced by the matcha flavor! Ambiance is casual, can get quite loud again during busy times where it's hard to hear conversations.

    Great souffle pancakes for a reasonable price! They're delicious, fluffy, and the cream is a perfect addition. They come out in about 20-30 minutes during non-rush hours but can take longer when more people are around. The tea and drinks here are also really good. Its cozy, with lighting that isn't too overwhelming and a good amount of indoor seating. There are two kiosks to order at and you get yourself a table number. They bring the pancakes out to you! There is music playing at a nice volume that isn't distractingly loud. There is also a clean bathroom inside if you need to go. Overall, rate this location a 8/10!

    Sesame drink with tofu pudding on their menu? I'm definitely stopping by. The big self order kiosks were convenient. Status was notified through text message. Sesame was nutty and creamy, not too watered down. I chose it less sweet but was sweeter than I hoped for, prob from the boba that I accidentally added. Tofu was silky but wish there was more since I got this drink mainly because of that. All the indoor tables were taken on a Sunday afternoon since people ordered their signature crepe cakes and fluffy pancakes. They do also have some outdoor seating. Will want to try the soufle pancakes next time I come on a weekday and hopefully it's less crowded

    It's been a while since I've had Motto Tea. There's so many boba places in this vicinity. It was a warm day so I decided to go back to Motto and get myself a cheese mousse Jasmine green tea. I forgot how good their drinks are. The Jasmine was extremely fragrant. And the mousse was the right consistency. I ordered 25% sweet with boba and it was just perfect. I have tried their cakes before in the past and remember them being good. I haven't had a chance to try the pancakes yet since there's usually a wait.

    Making the souffe pancakes

    We came here to cry the infamous souffle pancakes and they did not disappoint! This location had a few tables for seating and a couple fo outdoor seating. Easy parking in the plaza. There are a few seasonal flavors for the souffle pancakes - we ordered the strawberry soufflé pancake. The pancakes are the jigglist, fluffiest pillows of joy. The strawberry was not too sweet either and gave a nciie freshness to the plate. Be prepared to wait a bit for these pancakes. There is a glass window to see them making it, but you can tell the pancakes are a little finicky to cook just right that requires staff to keep attention on it. The first batch they started were burnt so they did have to start again which we waited about 30+ minutes to finally get, but devoured in 5. Price was around ~$17 in person but ordering on online delivery apps is a little more. One surprise star of the night was the pork sung taro mochi mini cake. The sweet and savory-ness blended so well together and the mochi filling inside was nicely chewy! Price is on the higher sde, but was delicious!

    With so many boba shops in the SGV, I had to see how Motto Tea Cafe compares to all the others. I am glad to say that it is a decent boba spot. The Osmanthus Oolong Milk Tea was smooth, creamy, and delicious. However, the boba topping was hard and undercooked. I also quite enjoyed the White Peach Moonlight Milk Tea, which had just the right amount of artisan white peach flavor. I highly recommend adding either the cheese mousse or matcha mousse to the milk teas. If you want something that is both fruity and milky, then you can't go wrong with the Messy Berries Latte. This is a fairly small shop without much seating inside and a bit of outdoor seating. There are 2 ordering kiosks at the front. Service is pretty nonexistent here. Instead of calling out your order when it's ready, the employees just leave the drinks at the counter. I always have to go up to ask for my drink, so this is something to watch out for if you are visiting. In addition to drinks, there are many cake, souffle pancakes, and dessert options available. Parking here is sufficient, plenty of spots and shouldn't have any problem finding parking.

    Omg this place is delish! My parents love coming here to grab a sweet treat after dinner, but it was my first time here. When you walk in, the place is quite crowded but my mom was able to secure a table luckily. You order from a kiosk which had too many desserts to try. We got the Christmas soufflé pancakes since it had pistachio and raspberry cream with strawberries and blueberries in each layer. It was visually stunning and also tasty! I'm not a fan of sugary sweet desserts but this was perfectly sweetened. The soufflé pancakes were fluffy and moist! 5/5! The black sesame tofu pudding frost was also delicious. I got less sugar and substituted soy milk. It was very black sesame forward, which I really appreciated! Also 5/5. I'll definitely be back again with my parents soon!!

    Absolutely loved the strawberry pancake. I think nothing I've ever had before. It's so fluffy and light and delicious. We ordered at the kiosk and got our number and sat down. We even added a tip on the order. The only bummer is when they brought us the pancake, they told us "forks are over there" which we had to get up and get our own fork. I feel like if you're tipping, they should at least bring your fork to you. No big deal the place was delicious and very clean.

    When I think of soufflé pancakes I think of Motto Tea Café. Their pancakes are so delicate and fluffy with the best topping options and best drink options as well. You see how I devoured my plate? Yeah. They also have really nice "not too sweet" desserts that I adore. Decent seating, good parking and very kind staff.

    matcha mochi white peach oolong
    Natasha M.

    love this cafe and the variety of souffle pancakes, desserts, and drinks they have. there is a bit of a wait as they're freshly made-to-order, so don't come hungry! love that they have plenty of seating, including the patio. parking does get tricky on ground level but the plaza offers underground parking. i've tried their king grape tea (blended grape w cheese mousse and grape jelly), taro storm BMT with choice of tea, mango yuki (blended mango w choice of foam, i chose matcha), and matcha mochi white peach MT. their drinks have all been solid. however, boba quality is just ok. the most memorable and delicious drink i've had was the taro storm with my choice of tea. get it with the osmanthus tea!! the tea is so fragrant and lightly sweetened that it works really well against the earthy taro paste.

    the store was trying to move unsold inventory.

    Are there any gluten free options? I don't see any notes on the menu.

    No not that I noticed. Just the teas but no food items.

    Has anyone ordered the soufflé to-go? Is this still as good?

    Personally, I think it is better when it is fresh and in person. When you take it to go, it is still tasty but it's not as fresh or as pretty.

    Do you need reservations?

    No reservation is needed. It's a Cafe like Boba shop. They use (touchless) online order onsite.

    Are you doing soufflé pancakes regularly now or still just weekend?

    They serve everyday but cutoff for souffle pancake order is 8pm

    Soufflé pancakes are only on weekends?

But this one deserves a bit more detail for the 3 stars. We came here at my husband's cravings for eggs Benedict for his birthday brunch. It was a Saturday around 1PM. There were crowds, but it didn't feel overwhelmingly busy. I will say they seemed well staffed, which made service feel prompt and welcomed. Everyone in the team appeared friendly. The person who made our lattes also made an effort to clarify our order (lattes with Oatmilk with cream foam - which u know can be confusing. I'm giving up whole milk for the fats and lactose, but a little bit of cream won't hurt). We chose Mari Vees over other nearby spots mainly because of the style and ambiance, which truly delivered... beautiful, modern, and inviting on Yelp. We ordered the iced Spanish latte, iced matcha latte, classic eggs Benedict, and chilaquiles with beef. As soon as the plates landed on our table, before we even had a chance to taste anything, a well-dressed gentleman (who seemed more senior than the rest of the staff) came over and asked how everything was. We felt compelled to give the automatic "everything is good." To be fair, the flavors did hit the spot. The lattes were yummy (and shoutout to the cute aesthetics), the chilaquiles were perfectly savory, and the sauce on the eggs Benedict was rich and creamy. However, the reason this lands at 3 stars is the eggs Benedict itself. The poached eggs were overcooked. Poached eggs should be runny and creamy, not firm. We brought this up to our server, Jeremiah, but he responded that it was "poached hard." I was confused... was that intentional? I checked the menu again (good thing I take pictures), and it simply says "poached eggs." Later, when we were paying, the same gentleman returned, who I inquired and learned goes by the name, Victor. This time, he didn't ask about our experience, but I knew I had to say something. I shared praise along with a lighthearted and humorous question about the overcooked eggs. He admitted they should be runny and said "we should have told them"... BUT WE DID! I debated addressing it in person versus sharing here on Yelp. Unfortunately, it felt like the team wasn't equipped to properly handle feedback. Instead of acknowledging the issue, we felt dismissed and gaslighted. I still gave a 18% tip (our total was $60+) , slight lower than our usual 20%... but I know everyone works hard in there. Overall, it had the potential to be a great experience, but the mishap left a sour note and pretty much ruined our afternoon. Not sure we'll be back.

I was leaning towards the spam loco moco cause I didn't really want something fried but it was the same price so I figured the katsu was a better deal cause it's more skill. It was such a large plate. Like easily two people could share it and maybe a third. The gravy was solid. The chicken wasn't dry and was good. Spam musubi was good but I wish it was fully wrapped cause my rice broke off towards the end. I got a guava toffee French toast to go for my daughter and she said it was good but it literally just tasted like cooked bread which I guess is what French toast is but I guess when it's done right it's transformed more. This wasn't the case. She also could barely taste the guava. All in all I'd come again if someone else wanted to try it but it's not something I'll be craving or coming to when I miss the islands.

Not even 30 minutes later the whole place was packed. I ordered the Benedict Pancakes ($22) and the seasonal Biscuit souffle pancakes ($18). I also tried the Tonkatsu Curry ($16). For a drink I got the pot of Peach Momo Tea ($6). My benedict pancakes came out first. The souffle pancakes and the tonkatsu curry came out at the same time 30 minutes later. The benedicts weren't bad, but I probably wouldn't get them again. The yolk was solid and not runny and the pancakes were just normal flat pancakes, and they were kind of dry. The tonkotsu and the Japanese pancakes were way better. Both were very flavorful and nice and hot. For the tea pots you also get refills, so we got a lot to drink with that. For a two-person table, it was definitely too small to hold everything that we ordered. Luckily by the time the curry and the pancakes came out I was already finished with my benedict pancakes and was able to give it to them to clear out to make room for the other dishes. Service was good, the wait for the food was long but they were still attentive enough to get us what we needed. Once you get your food they try to get you out as quickly as possible since the longer it went the longer the wait outside was for a table. Overall it was a nice breakfast/brunch experience. It is a bit pricey, but some dishes are better than others. I would come back either for the Japanese pancakes or the curry. The tea was great too. I would probably skip the eggs benedict next time though.

Cinnamon French toast - crunch like it sounds, delicious and really resembles the cereal as well as a churro texture Cowboy burger - what can I say, a burger from the west, big juicy patty, bacon and egg topped with their delicious sauce, perfectly paired. Boiled pork omelette - you'll need a big appetite for this one. Don't be fooled by its size, it's more food than one can probably eat alone. Big flavor, pork was seasoned well and bbq sauce was a nice touch in the eggs. Potatoes were also on point! House French toast - almost as good as the cinnamon French toast, it has the crunch, flavor and doesn't require any syrup, already sweet as it is! Chicken sandwich - juicy, tangy, not spicy for me (got a level 2 of 4, I think) but if you like flavor, it has it all. The mini spice kick and the mixture of the egg yolk that just fills your mouth with fun! Will surely come back. Their seating is limited so be sure to have that reservation guest list ready as soon as you arrive.

The set up: you order up front, pay, take a number & find yourself a table & food will be delivered to you. Easy peasy! Hubby ordered the Classic Benedict & of course I ordered the star of the show- Ube French Toast (Ube condensed milk & coconut flakes on the side). Additionally, I ordered a side of grilled chicken. Alexis, the order taker brought our dishes separately & Hubby cannot wait so he dug right in before mine arrived. I know it's not intentional, but I noticed that bigger table (6 patrons) had arrived after we did and they received their food very shortly and all at the same time. Not digging that. In any case, my food finally came & the anticipation was tingly. It's the best part, the toasts were crispy crunchy on the outside & moist on the inside-- so good! Well balanced sweetness, I had control over how much ube condensed milk was poured- that's a plus. Hubby didn't like the muffin of his eggs Benedict because he said it was "tough & stale" but the potatoes & eggs were good. We finished off the French toast in a heartbeat. Background music was too loud for our taste (and ears) to enjoy brunch, the aesthetics were on point. Parking is very tricky, so glad we found one a block away (free city parking structure). It's worth returning for the one French toast.

Hubby ordered the breakfast burrito ($11.50) & I opted for build your own omelette $11.50 for a 3 egg omelette & choice of two items- mushroom and bell peppers accompanied with breakfast potatoes, and chilaquiles ($13.99) to share. The patio seating is fresh, airy, there are tables, outdoor furnitures (sofas) and bright orange umbrellas for shade. My photos captured these elements. The food arrived shortly, although not all at once. I didn't mind it all because the ambiance was so soothing with the sound of birds chirping away and the background of other patrons talking. The only complaint from Hubby was too many pototo chunks in his burrito. My omelette was hot, fresh ingredients, delectable & the potatoes were mixed with 3 colors of bellpeppers. Oh and the chilaquiles? Pretty darn good! The tortilla chips were crispy, perfect amount of green salsa, freshly diced onions & a sprinkling of cotija cheese. Was I famished or was it that good that I devoured everything? What's left was Hubby's potato chunk discards. Giselle returned a few times to ensure our experience is to our satisfaction & another staff also stopped by to check on us. Such a perfect meal & day-- I'm so happy with this visit. Parking is plentiful & free.

    I've heard great things about Aloha so I knew I had to give it a try. Aloha has a small parking lot…read moredesignated for customers, the interior is very cute and homey with an authentic island feel. I ordered the kalua pig lunch plate and spam musubi. Their serving sizes are soooo generous. The plate includes vegetables, rice, and macaroni salad. I came with two others and all the entrée choices were so delicious, you can't go wrong with anything. The spam came with 4 pieces and had a yummy sweet sauce to compliment the spam. So delicious!! One thing to note is they stop taking orders 30 minutes before closing so make sure you come on time to place your order!(:

    I'm visiting my good friend in Alhambra and he took me to Aloha Food Factory…read more We tried the beef short ribs, loco moco, and garlic shrimp plate, and honestly everything hit. The short ribs were rich, savory, and was pretty tender. The loco moco was pure comfort food with that gravy over rice, and the shrimp had a ton of garlic. All dishes were large in portion size. Sides were on point too, especially the mac salad and veggies. I'm a bit disappointed with the staff. We just did not get a warm Aloha welcome. If you're in the SGV and craving Hawaiian plate, this spot is worth a stop.
