Was excited to try out this shop after seeing good reviews. Walked in and the baristas didn't feel that welcoming. My iced vanilla latte was a little too milky and didn't feel worth the $7.25. The shop itself was cute but I left feeling disappointed by the service and my latte. read more

Came by Thursday morning before work to check out a nearby matcha spot and I was pleasantly surprised by the ample seating! It definitely fits the vibe of a hidden gem considering there's only street parking and the store front hides a beautiful courtyard in the back. I ordered the turkey and provolone croissant which was delicious and filling, and the barista was so kind in helping me decide what to order for a drink. I tried their guava matcha with oat milk. The matcha was not as strong as I'd hoped for but the guava flavoring was delicious! I also appreciated that they had simple syrup on the side for customers who like a sweeter drink. read more

Cute cafe with large outdoor seating area where you can soak in some sun while enjoying your morning or midday caffeine boost. On the hunt for different flavored matcha lattes and heard about the guava matcha so had to try it first myself. The guava fruit is not so sweet to begin with so didn't expect a sweet matcha tea. But overall felt underwhelming with not much flavor to it. The matcha itself was decent but nothing special. Also threw in a vegan croissant (yes you heard correctly). A little bit more on the drier side compared to the regular croissant but pretty good. Overall gave a 3.5 out of 5. More of a reflection tif the guava matcha but it could just be my personal preference I'm terms of the type of fruity flavor. The staff was Avery friendly and the service was otherwise fast and awesome. Plenty of space to do some work if you're looking for a place to chill. Wouldn't mind stopping by again to try other drinks in the menu. read more

Seeing all the amazing reviews, I made a point to swing by on a Saturday morning. Honestly, the location is a little hard to find-- there doesn't seem to be a dedicated parking lot, so street parking it is! However, there's also not a lot of street parking either. I ended up parking in the neighborhood, but it was one of those 4 parking street signs layered on top of each other, designed to confuse the heck out of you. I ended up taking a photo and running it through Gemini to make sure I was safe to park. Okay, parking aside, mu.so is located in large black office building-- they do put out a little "coffee" sign on the sidewalk. When you do see it, the actual coffee shot is small, but there's a whole backyard patio area with plenty of space for you to hang out. Anyways, I went with their iced americano with lavender cream top. I've been to a lot of coffee shops, but haven't run into a lavender cream top-- so of course I had to try. I thought it was pretty good, the cream top was a good pairing w/ the americano-- it sweetened the coffee, without making it too sweet or heavy. The lavender brought a light floral flavor to the coffee. While it's nothing life changing, I did think, it's a solid cup of coffee, it's worth a try, but probably not worth a dedicated drive over. I also picked up a blueberry muffin, because honestly, I love everything blueberry. I'd pass on it, but I'd recommend trying something else-- like the crossiants, which looked tastier. Overall, I might come by again and try one of their other drinks. While it wasn't bad, I expected a little more from a "signature' drink. read more

Good coffee and great eats, I thoroughly enjoyed my cold brew and turkey provolone pastry, although it could have received another minute in the toaster, the middle was cold. I specifically went here because they have an outdoor seating area, I prefer not to be cooped up inside. With that being said, stay away from the back corner, you will get eaten alive by mosquitoes. read more

Zoomed here for fruity matcha pick-me-ups! Lucky us, we found parking right in front. The café immediately caught our eye - it sits in the corner of a brutalist building with a clean industrial aesthetic indoors. The overall space feels surprisingly relaxing! The Lychee Nectar with Matcha Cream Top was pretty tangy and got better once the matcha cream was mixed in. The Iced Guava Matcha Latte tasted super tart. I appreciate the self-serve sweetener for guests adjust drinks to preference. Might try a lavender specialty next time~ read more

This has become one of my go-to study spots to do work at :D I really like how they have a ping pong table to play at whenever there's a small break in between work sessions. Cute little shop that has great parking options and a lot of seating (both indoor and outdoor). I've gotten their matchas and their coffees. Their matchas are fine, and their coffee is nice. We had one time the mocha was not particularly tasting like coffee at all, and the barista was happy to fix it for us. Friendly service :) Love introducing this place to friends. Thanks for the fun and great study spot! read more

Super friendly and cute coffee spot. Keep in mind parking is strictly on the street the valet is not for the coffee shop. Kinda secluded but still amazing and worth the trip. I tried their Americano with thick lavender creme and it was subtle yet nice. Never had an Americano like that and I didn't hate it. I say that because I normally do take my coffee on the dark side with zero to a splash of milk. But this did look appealing so I said why not be different today lol They also had food tried the bulgolgi burrito it was okay very hearty on the meat and had two eggs on it but I felt something was missing? It wasn't bad def massive and I felt like I had enough for 3 total meals lol Ventured out here after taking Ruby out to the vet hospital and needed to kill time for pick up. Def would be back again. You could see they knew the locals as many frequent this spot as a grab and go coffee joint. Great vibes and massive outdoor patio with lots of seating for working as well! ! read more

My impression of the place is that it's airy, with large windows in an industrial modern looking building. Immediately entering the shop, I was greeted with the smell of fragrant coffee. The barista was helpful in sharing all the matcha options I could get so I chose the matcha with lavender syrup. The matcha had a deep green color and blended nicely with a hint of lavender so it wasn't too sweet. Price point felt a bit higher for the flavored matcha options. Easy street parking in the neighborhoods. Went in the afternoon so it wasn't that busy. The outdoor patio was gorgeous, spacious, and had a really cute aesthetic. Would totally meet up with some friends here since it's a friendly vibe outside. read more

It's my new favorite, local cafe. The service is always kind and friendly. They are exceptionally quick with service and getting your drink to you. Always helpful. Always personable. It gets busy in waves but somehow I always find a spot to enjoy, relax, and write. I will typically get an espresso tonic or Iced Americano with a lavender cream top if I'm feelin fancy. Their lil almond joint pastry in the photo is amazing as well. read more

I don't know when Muso opened in West Adams but I made it here in January 2025 and wish I'd discovered them sooner. I came here around 9:30 am on a Sunday morning and the coffeeshop was super quiet. There was no line to order and the staff who were working were friendly and welcoming. There are a couple of seats inside the coffeeshop but it's very tight inside. Most of the seating is outdoors, and there are a mixture of low tables and chairs, as well as benches that are more optimal for anyone who wants to work on a laptop. I got two drinks, which came out very quickly. I got the coconut matcha cream top and the chai latte. Both were excellent. The coconut matcha would be a refreshing drink on a hotter day. The chai latte was comforting, and not super sweet as they can be sometimes. I'd rank this as one of my favorite coffee shops in LA and will be back. read more

Note: this is a review on only one drink and I will provide an updated review as I try more drinks. Previous yelpers mentioned that this coffee shop is kind of hidden while lots of patio seating and little indoor seating. Upon glancing at the menu we were drawn to lychee nectar matcha cream top. We decided to give it ago. We also wanted to try the breakfast burritos but they were sadly unavailable. Upon receiving it, we noted it had a a citrus taste - kind of like orange Yakult with a strong kick of matcha. It was a unique taste - but not bad at all, I would get this again. I want to come back and try the dutch mocha along with a standard latte and update this review but for now this gets a 5. read more

mu.sō Coffee is such a beautiful addition to the West Adams area. The space is clean and modern, with a calm, welcoming vibe that makes it a great place to relax or get a little work done. Although the shop itself is on the smaller side, there's a large outdoor patio that gives you plenty of space to sit and enjoy your coffee. Dogs are welcome, and you'll usually see plenty of them on weekends. The coffee is consistently delicious, and I love their creative cold foams, which are usually seasonal and always fun to try. The chocolate chip cookie is also a must. Customer service is great. Street parking only, but it's usually manageable. read more

I came here because I wanted to try their Guava Matcha latte. Unfortunately, it just did not hit for me. I felt like the combination was a little odd and the guava added a very grainy texture. I definitely prefer mango or strawberry flavors in my matcha. I also tried the Turkey Provolone Croissant which was pretty good. It was big and crispy/fluffy but the filling was definitely heavily in one area of the croissant. read more

I am a matcha lover downnn and this lychee matcha revived something within me. I expected the lychee juice to taste artificial but it tasted as if I peeled and ate a lychee fruit- it was so fresh and juicy. The flavor of the lychee juice and matcha was IMMACULATE. The matcha cloud had a nutty and vibrant flavor that meshed so incredibly well with the lychee juice. I'm so impressed. What a unique combination. The building gives hideaway secret cabin vibes! It's honestly really cool and has ample seating. The workers here are very welcoming and friendly. Overall-- loved it!!! read more

Coffee is solid, they have a court yard where you can chill and read or do work. WiFi is okay, I haven't tried video calls or anything but it seemed like you could browse the web on mobile and stuff. Service is friendly, there's a parking lot that cliffs of id uses for the overflow lot that's walking distance from this coffee shop. They used to have a discount for cliffs of id members, can't remember if it was temporary or not. read more

I checked out mu.so coffee in West Adams, and it's a cool spot. It sits right on the edge of Culver City and features an exterior design that catches your eye immediately. The space offers plenty of room to get work done, and the outdoor patio makes for a great setup to sit outside and enjoy the day. They serve fun seasonal drinks, including a pistachio cream top latte. The drink was pleasant and hit a very rich, nutty note. Give it a good mix to thicken up the consistency, but watch out for the small pistachio pieces because I accidentally choked on some. The barista delivered great service, and I will definitely be back to test out more of the menu. read more

The first thing that's undeniable at this place is how beautifully it's designed. I'm a big fan of the minimalist storefront and interior, while still maintaining personality through the fridge of offerings (never seen a fridge burrito in a cafe), cozy seating, and some books to flip through while enjoying your drink. The outdoor seating area of course is a huge up - great for studying, reading, or a weekend yap session with a good friend. Onto the drink - I got a Lavender Cream Top Americano. Drinks overall are on the pricier side and this wasn't an exception, but I could at least tell the coffee quality was good! The lavender cream is also quite tasty and and the shop doesn't skimp on the amount to allow you taste the drink as a whole rather then as two separate layers. The owner was prompt at taking our order and could tell the team was working efficiently together on a busy Saturday afternoon. Slight nitpick, but would've liked maybe just some info on the bag of beans for sale even if it's not a huge draw if the shop, even just stating it's the shop's espresso blend would be nice to know for those who might want a bag. read more

Great for large groups or for a solo trip! I had gone on a Sunday afternoon and it was not too crowded and fairly quiet. Love that they don't blast music.

Love the outdoor patio + the matcha foam lychee nectar!! We tried the iced americano with lavender foam + lychee nectar with matcha foam. The latter definitely steals the spotlight. The foam consistency is thick and creamy, paired well with lychee nectar. Most other cafe offers coconut water with matcha, so I was super excited to try with lychee nectar. It did not disappoint! read more

Truly exceptional coffee, prepared with care and precision, in a great and beautifully architected location. A stunning addition to the West Adams hit list! Operated by a few friendly barista/owners, who clearly have put a lot of thought and effort into crafting this experience. The pastries are pretty wonderful too, and they have some ready to go options in the fridge if you're in a rush. Parking can be a little funny but I've never had to search for long. Also there's a pretty rad outdoor space that really makes for a great spot to meet and mix with the community, or get some work done. Bring your laptop and get some work done, or bring your pup to mix with the locals, but either way, you're gonna get a wonderfully crafted, caffeinated experience. read more

I can't get behind these prices. I'm not above spending $9 on a caffeinated drink, but usually it's more than 5 oz of liquid. I've had their matcha latte and their lychee matcha drink and each time it's been a max 10 sips for $9+. Service is also so off putting as the employees have been quite cold each time. Response to owner: I did not say any of your coffee drinks were $9. My review specifically referenced your matcha drinks. Cheers. read more

mu.so coffee is a very cool and modern coffee shop in West Adams with some unique drinks. To get here, they do have their own small parking lot or a good amount of street parking all around the area. Inside, they have a couple tables for seating or a lot more seating options at their spacious patio. For their menu, they have a nice selection of different pastries, coffee, and matcha to choose from. I ended up getting the Lychee Nectar Matcha Cream Top and it did not disappoint! This drink is chef's kiss forreal. Overall, I enjoyed my drink and the vibes here. All of the staff are very friendly and welcoming.

Beautiful location. Shop itself is pretty small, but there's plenty of seating outside. Drinks menu was straightforward with some unique flavors and staff was really friendly. Got the lychee nectar matcha cloud, Guava matcha latte, and brownie. Drinks were both pretty solid in terms of matcha. Their elements could be a tad more sweeter for me. Lychee nectar has that sour profile so I wished the matcha foam was a tad sweeter to negate that. And the guava puree was on the tart side as well so I wished that to be a bit sweeter too. Brownie was really good. I recommend getting coffee if ordering that. The texture of it basically melted away inside your mouth. read more

last week I went here with my coworker to try out some drinks, and I had my eye on the guava matcha. the place itself is very nice inside and outside too. there's a lot of tables outside that get the right amount of sunlight and it's a bit tucked away from the street view which is great. they have a bathroom downstairs that I believe they share with another business, just ask for the key. street parking is available around the cafe. so I ordered my guava matcha while she ordered the dutch mocha, and then we both got the Virtu protein bowls which I have had at another cafe (I think Virtu makes their bowls in an unknown location then sells them to cafes), it's always tasty just expensive lol. the matcha was honestly not my fav! the guava flavor at the bottom was delicious and fruity, but the matcha had no sweetness whatsoever so once the guava was mixed in, the drink tasted like nothing. I had to add some simple syrup at their little drink station but I wish it already had come a bit sweet. my coworker did enjoy the dutch mocha but she also had the same complaint as I did, it was barely sweet. that's really the only downside but I suppose it's good if you like your drinks without any sugar at all lol. read more

Came here for their famous guava matcha latte since I was in the area and had a few hours to kill. They do have their own parking lot in the back but I found free street parking the block prior and walked over. The entrance is slightly hidden but there is a sign marking where to head into. There is a bunch of outdoor seating, both in the front and back of the cafe, but limited indoor seating. Because it's further close-ish to the ocean, it can definitely get chilly here with the wind even on sunnier days so I definitely recommend bringing a jacket. Service was super quick. Guava matcha latte 2/5, I am so sad to report that this is not good :( the guava by itself is sweet and tastes great! the matcha by itself is bitter and a more traditional matcha! but together?? unfortunately they just did not blend well for me :( With all the good reviews, I would recommend getting a regular matcha instead. read more

Stopped in this very modern, sleek coffee shop on a Saturday morning looking for a matcha. There was plenty of street parking with thankfully a short line. I was planning on a simple pure matcha which I rarely see out these days, but when I saw the option for a guava iced matcha latte I had to try it. The guava added just the right amount of sweetness with a fruity twist. If it wasn't so cold, I would've sat outside in their spacious patio area and read. I definitely will be back for a simple matcha! read more

Their espresso is good and their staff is very welcoming as they engage with each customer that has a story to tell and maintain a relationship with their regulars. However, their matcha isn't worth trying and I expected more from the guava as it leaned towards more of a smoothie texture. read more
