    Another coffee review from another coffee fanatic. Donut included. I came before closing time at around 8:35pm. Another set of people strolled in after me. I ordered a chocolate donut with an iced cream latte. Donut was a 3.5/5. Mid. I specialize in chocolate donuts and this one did not exactly *wow* me. It was moist, decent chocolate flavor to it. It felt more generic than anything, no offense donut. The maple pecan donut my friend ordered was a 4/5 though. I enjoyed it more than the chocolate donut I had ordered, but pls dont tell the chocolate donut that. The iced cream latte? PHEW. That coffee was pretty amazing. It kept me AWAKE. Got the bowels moving for sure too. It is not sweet so just beware of that. Coffee flavor is ON POINT. robust, full of flavor 5/5. The service was not good whatsoever. I mentioned it was my first time there, and typically I would be informed about the establishment and their specialties and so.... but not here. Okay. well. next, the entire demeanor and attitude of the worker was pretty absent. Even when I would say thank you there was no response. I was kinda shocked ngl. It's all good though. I enjoyed my coffee and skidaddled. There is ample parking in the plaza with plenty of neighboring establishments.

    Been here a couple of times, but not really worth coming back. Nice space with a good vibe. Customer service is generally poor. Workers don't seem happy to be there or help. Interesting donut flavors. Very hit or miss. Almost everything is cream filled. Wildly overpriced. A dozen will cost you $55-60. Execution is good, but it doesn't justify the price. I think they forgot that at the end of the day, these are donuts not dessert. Type of place you try once or twice and then decide their gimmick isn't worth the price of admission. Too many other great donut shops in town for this place to survive with their current format.

    Came here around 8:40AM on 10/19/25.interior was nice and captivating; however, there was ZERO greeting/customer service upon arrival and we were the only customers in the donut shop. I also didn't know that you ONLY have the option to order on the kiosk? The girl working seemed like she didn't want to be there or interact any customers. So, we ordered on the kiosk and came to the conclusion that not every donut on the display isn't available on the kiosk. Most importantly, I received really bad customer service after I placed my order. First, I asked if they had knives and the girl didn't say anything but point to where they were. Second, There was a miscommunication with my order and the girl working gave me so much attitude! This is such a shame because the donuts we got (Raspberrry ring, butter pistachio, maple pecan, onion sesame, cream cheese, Chocolate roll) were all really good. I would've given 5 stars if the Customer service was better and had a decent experience. Luckily, there are several other locations to go to.

    Clean interior, friendly and patient service, lots of donuts to choose from. Seriously, what's there to complain much about? I liked the butter pistachio donuts I got but didn't like any other flavors I got. The earl gray cake donut tasted dry and stale. The chocolate cream donuts tasted too dense and cream inside too runny. It also tasted rather artificial. The peanut butter one was ok. Nothing to write home about. Parking is free and plenty. No bathroom available inside. No way to wash hands pre or post stuffing your face with donuts. There are seatings available inside and also kiosk to order donuts and drinks to simplify things. Would I return? Not unless I'm on my way somewhere.

    Oh bummer. This place closed for good. I will miss their Butter Pistachio Donut. It had a good run, but it was empty a lot.

    My box of goodies.

    Ever nice my first bite of the pistachio butter I have been hooked!!! I was in the area and got my box of their famous doughnuts. This location is fairly big and because it's in a huge plaza there is plenty of parking. As always, staff is great.

    The Service: There are two self ordering kiosks. The staff at the counter is very efficient. The store is clean & well maintained. Love the color orange, it's bright & welcoming. The Donuts: Their donuts are so fluffy! Love the chewy texture. Freshly made daily. The staff recommended Butter Pistachio flavor. OMG! Not only there are pistachios toppings, once I bite into it, there is buttery fillings too! Nice surprise~ Milk cream ball is my another favorite. The milk cream is refreshing and not overly sweet. If you are a latte lover, definitely try their Iced Cream Latte. Super creamy! Summer is here, we all need some refreshing drinks. They have this hibiscus & yuzu beverage. I can even taste the yuzu pulp! The Parking: Plaza parking lot (free)

    We stopped by to get boba next door and just saw this place. Korean donuts??? Had to try. They were sold out of many of the favorites but doood... they were all amazing! Mango ball (5): delicious mango crème. Dusted with some mango outside. Awesome. Hazelnut choco (5): chocolate glaze with some hazelnut filling. Delicious. Tiramisu (5): the consensus favorite of our bunch. Tasted like tiramisu for reals. The crème was amazing. Most things here have some sort of filling which really just kicks it up a notch. They open at 8 or so which is when they hit and fresh. Need to come by then to try it hot. What an amazing stumble!

    I found this don't place when I took my son to the boba shop next door. Their menu alone looked so delicious. A few weeks later I see an instagram reel introducing this place as a chain from Korea known for their soft, fluffy dough and delicious cream filling. I took some in for a company party but I was so hungry stole a piece of the butter pistachio and by far my favorite cream filling donut ever! If you're not into cream filling this place may not be your jam as 90% of their spread are filled either some kind of cream. Original, mango, strawberry, raspberry, chocolate filled donuts Their crème brule tasted a bit sour for me. As the reel suggested super fluffy dough Nice cream filling but not too sweet. Coworkers loved it! Can't wait to go back!

    I'm in love with their donuts. Never had bad ones. It's not greasy and not too sweet. I also love staffs there and most of them are very nice. My favorite is pistachio. Ohhh now I'm thinking about their donuts and I really wanna go again.

    Ryna D.

    I'm a fan! Don't be deceived by the Americana decor, this is a Korean import. The cream filled donuts are excellent and they've got all sorts of flavors. I tried the non-cream filled donuts as well but they definitely shine with the cream filled ones.

    It was one of those days that I realized that my dessert would be my dinner and I have no regrets. I stumbled upon this place after walking out of HomeGoods, and I am so glad that I did, this location, the service, the donuts and decor was truly what I needed to end my workday. This is truly a place that I would come back and just hang out, read or study or just chat with friends. The ambience and vibe is absolutely delight delightful and the service is supreme. I ordered a iced Matcha, a Boston cream and a hazelnut donut, and everything was absolutely exquisite.

    The flavor options
    Marcela O.

    The donuts taste so rich and high quality. This is the first time I try these donuts and now I'm a fan. I tried the raspberry, crème brûlée, earl grey and lemon poppy seed cream. I enjoyed the early grey most. The worker here was very polite and sweet. We came to the Torrance location and we were helped right away. The place looks warm and inviting. Well kept and clean. Soft music and the smell of donuts in the air. I love that they have mirrors to take pictures for social media.

The coffee shop recently had a collaboration with online influencer POV Husband for the POV Matcha pop-up in August 2026 and there was a long waiting line wrapped around the block. I came here on a casual Saturday afternoon and there was a minimal wait. [Parking]: Easy and free strip mall parking. [Atmosphere]: There are one long table, one bar table, and bench seating with about 20+ seats inside the shop. There are two small outdoor tables just outside of the shop. [Menu]: According to one of the posted metal plaques, some of the signature drinks are Chrome Latte or Matcha, Cream Top, Cold Brew Latte, Banana Cream Latte (Espresso or Matcha), Coconut Matcha, and Hojicha Cream Top. *** Banana Cream Matcha (matcha + milk + agave + banana cream + cinnamon - $7.25): Excellent banana cream as it had a really strong flavor. While the matcha portion was watery, the matcha flavor remained strong. Once the entire drink was stirred, the drink tasted a bit more balanced. *** A solid matcha shop in the South Bay, but their cream is quite sweet and I would get it at 75% sweetness instead.

There were only a few tables and benches inside a somewhat L-shaped shop with a very narrow hall and one all gender restroom available. To be honest, I don't know what the hype was about. I ordered a golden hour expresso tonic and the frozen matcha. Both were good, but nothing that was inherently unique from other coffeeshops. My matcha was smoothly blended but definitely more on the milky side. My husband's tonic was refreshing and slightly citrusy, but not different than tonics we've tried at other shops. Due to the small space and random amounts of people standing around and just chatting and hanging inside the shop, I wouldn't come again unless it's a quick grab and go. Even then, not sure if it's worth the line or wait, but I guess some people seem to really like this place.

The shop itself is super busy with people doing work in laptops or just hanging out. There's always plenty of seating outside regardless. They were sold out of the barley popping boba on Friday and over the weekend. We've come by a few times and the matcha and hojicha drinks were watered down. This time I opted for the Pink Berry and Phoenix Oolong Milk Tea. The pink berry is depicted as a yogurt strawberry puree drink. I got a drink that was mostly a smoothie of ice with strawberry flavor. The consistency was more liquidy and lacked any yogurt creaminess. Phoenix oolong milk tea was more on the milk tasting side. The tea taste was definitely there, but the milk and tea didn't taste like it blended well together at all. I'm overall mixed about coming here since it is a hit or miss on if the drinks will be watered down or not. Staff is always busy filling orders and it does take some time to get the drinks. IIt's a nice space to work at and hopefully drinks will improve.

You can tell they put a lot of effort into their food and drinks. As for the ambiance, it's perfect for those who want to hang out and catch up with friends/family or to study. When I visited, there were easily 5 other groups and individuals studying here. I have a big soft spot for banana flavored items. A BIG SOFT SPOT. Banana Cream Pie Latte - this one carries the biggest punch for banana lovers. Banana cream the entire way from start to finish. Not too sweet. Awesome foam top too. I highly recommend drinking these without the straw. Foam top drinks are best appreciated when you get a nice 50:50 ratio of the foam and drink. Banana Matcha Latte - the name speaks for itself. It's a nice mixture of both. So if you're looking to feel a little healthier with the matcha element, then go for it. This was probably the prettiest drink of the 3 that we had. Americano - delicious and got the job done here. I naturally enjoy Ethiopian and Colombian beans. I brew them often at home. I was definitely wide awake after these drinks lol Strawberrynana Waffle - If you LOVE belgian-style waffles like me, then you'll find yourself ordering this again and again. It wasn't too sweet but sweet enough to easily go through 2 or 3 of these plates if you're crazy enough. Banana Walnut Honey Bread - the best for last! I really loved eating brick toast growing up. There were so many stores back in the day that sold them, and now I can't find them as easily. In fact, Caffe Bene is the only place in the South Bay that I know that sells them.

La Cha x The Bowl currently has a second location in Hawthorne in addition to this flagship location in Torrance. The shop is known for its viral cracking chocolate shell boba cup. [Parking]: Easy parking within the plaza. [Atmosphere]: A very casual setup for this tea shop and customers can place their orders via one of two kiosks. One thing to note is that the tea shop plays fairly loud background music so it is hard to have a conversation unless you are sitting right next to the person you are talking to. [Menu]: Yelp's top highlighted items are Strawberry Matcha W/ Milk Foam, Strawberry Taro Milk Tea, and Caramel Cheese Latte. Other featured items include Popcorn Chicken, Biscoff Shake, and Chicken Teriyaki Bowl. *** Strawberry Matcha Milk Tea (100% sweetness - $6.20): The drink was slightly too sweet for me, but the overall flavor was there. Chicken Teriyaki Bowl (Charbroiled Chicken Teriyaki + comes with white rice, chopped lettuce, macaroni salad and grilled fresh pineapple - $13.90): The bowl was surprisingly better than I had expected. The bowl had a slice of grilled pineapple and decent macaroni salad. I was actually able to split the bowl into two smaller meal portions. It was certainly a lot better than the teriyaki bowl from Flame Broiler. *** A solid 3.5-star for the drink and rice bowl. I personally slightly prefer their rice bowl over their drinks and overall this is a nice neighborhood tea shop to grab a quick meal or get a-okay drinks as there aren't too many tea shop options in this part of Torrance (closer to the city of Carson).
