    Came here on a Saturday morning for the BOGO biscoff matcha late. Who can say no to BOGO free drinks. The biscoff matcha latte was really good, I love the biscoff cookie, good matcha flavor and not overly sweet. Will definitely come back and try other stuff on menu

    Came by on a late Friday night. Only a few other patrons so we were able to find seating easily. Flipped through their extensive drink menu and decided on the sour sop tea, mango yakult, strawberry mojito (virgin), sea salt coffee, a macaroon, and a mousse cake shaped like a chubby hamster. Drinks came out in decent time and were very refreshing! Definitely enjoyed the sour sop tea the most! Plenty of fruit pieces to munch on after you finish your drink as well. The mousse was okay, but I would order again for just the laughs. There was a cute frozen bear on top of our mango yakult drink, which was a nice touch. Would be a regular stop for me if only we lived closer. There were plenty of food options, but we had just came from dinner so we didn't get to try them out.

    September has the most delicious Baileys coffee and I wish they were closer to home! It doesn't stop me from going though! I have brought over a couple of family and friends to try September out and every single person has loved it! It's a great place to study and the interior inside is really nice. There's areas that are more private for time where you want to study and some spots inside for hanging and catching up with friends. They have so many drink options such as iced lattes, hot drinks, blended drinks, etc. and they also have multiple food options as well! Their workers are very friendly and quick and they bring your order to you which is really nice :) I can't wait to go back! Parking: 9/10 (shared with other shops in plaza) Food/Drinks: 10/10 Service: 10/10 Interior: 10/10

    This place opens late and has a variety of desserts including ice cream, boba tea and dessert cakes. We got the flan, tiramisu, and mousse cakes since they had a buy 3 get 1 free on their cakes. The lady that helped us was super sweet and let us try samples of their ice cream flavors. Place was not too loud or crowded, great place to sip, munch and yap

    September Cafe offers an authentic Vietnamese vibe with aesthetic seating and unique drinks. The friendly and helpful staff helped us customize our drink's sweetness and strength. We tried the best-selling Sea Salt Cream Coffee, which was creamy with a rich coffee taste. We recommend bringing cash for a 5% discount!

    I'm not sure why but I thought the cafe would be bigger from pictures. That's not a big deal but just thought I'd point it out just in case others would think the same haha. Service: I would rate it a 4/5 and that's the main reason the rating is what it is. At first I spoke Vietnamese to the cashier but she didn't seem to understand so I had to speak in English. Then after I ordered, she talked in Vietnamese to the next customer :') I don't blame her though because perhaps it was on me speaking too low or not pronouncing the name of the food well. She recommended a drink for my mom that she said wasn't sour but it was still very sour for her. She was kind enough to offer to make another one or add in extra sugar. Food: It was okay. The egg cream toast is simple, so hard to mess up. It was alright! Creamy and not too sweet with not too overwhelming of an eggy flavor. Mushroom Carbonara was creamy and pretty good. Probably the best thing we ordered out of the three food items! Banh Mi Que was okay. The shredded pork filling, my mom said wasn't good. The bread on the outside is fine. The ham and cheese was loved by my niece! I'm sure if they had the pork belly, my mom would have liked that one. Drinks: Semi-decent. The sakura blossom latte was more milk than anything. I didn't taste enough of the sakura/cherry blossom flavor. Barbie yakult was good but also average and not wow. If you like flavor then the peach orange lemongrass drink is actually really good. My mom just isn't able to handle sour. Overall, I could have given a lower score as it felt disappointing despite the reviews seeming different. I don't think I'd come here again. I leave it at 4 stars, like I said, mainly because I'm at least thankful they seemed so willing to make things better for our drinks if we were not satisfied.

    Egg coffee girl dates

    I met up with a friend here early morning for some coffee and girl chat. It was easy to find there is a huge parking lot with plenty of space for you to park your car. There is also plenty of seating inside. The inside of the café is so beautiful and perfect for photos. It's very modern very shake. Service was great. The front desk and cashier was also very helpful in deciding what drink we should get helping us. Look at the menu and recommending their favorites. Go wrong with the Vietnamese egg coffee, and some chill vibes. Will definitely come back.

    This place has been my go to for avocado coffee and Vietnamese Coffee. The owner here is consistently nice and welcoming! Their food options are also great and the ambiance is great however I do no think this the place to relax/study as there are a lot of people that comes here to socialize. I highly recommend for you to try this place.

    Truffle Coffee
    Millena P.

    Sundays call for brunch aaannnddd coffee dates. I've had this spot saved for a while and finally got the chance to check it out. Parking: Free parking lot. There's a small/medium parking lot. Finding a spot can be easy. Ambiance/Environment: The interior is very cute. They have a decent amount of indoor seating. There's a small den with a booth-ish seating. There are regular-height tables and chairs and shorter tables and chairs. It's a studious environment but also a nice spot to hangout. Service: The cashier that assisted me was simply efficient. Throughput was quick after ordering. We only waited about 12 min for everything. Drinks & dessert: The menu can be overwhelming. They offer small bites, desserts, milk teas, coffee, fruit teas, teas, yogurt, blended drinks, etc. Although the photos of the drinks look appealing, the presentation doesn't match. I was told they no longer offer drinks in a glass even if you're dining in. All drinks are in to-go cups. I got the Truffle Coffee, Vietnamese Black Coffee (with no sugar), and Egg Cream Toast. If you prefer your drinks strong and bitter, then the Vietnamese Black Coffee will be perfect for you. The bear on top is absolutely cute. Make sure you drink this properly - always let Vietnamese coffee sit and don't slurp it in two gulps. Hence why there's a lot of ice. The Truffle Coffee tasted exactly as it sounds .. I thought the flavors were okay, but I believe truffle should only stay with savory dishes lol. The egg cream itself was thick and creamy. I was expecting some fancy french toast along side with it, but it's literally just toasted white bread. Pricing: More on the expensive side for coffee in OC. I'd come back to try their other drinks bc they all sound appealing. I wouldn't get the egg cream toast again.

    Pandan Ice Cream
    Long T.

    Craving dessert randomly late one Tuesday night and stumbled upon this nice dessert cafe while on the area. It's a nice sized store with plenty of tables inside and some stool seating that faces out to a busy street which is always nice to watch cars drive. The vibe was very chill and mellow at the time i went, great for reading a book or bringing your laptop to study. This place offers a variety of teas, coffees, ice creams, cakes, and croffles on their menu to name a few. I went with a single scoop of their Pandan Ice Cream which costs $5.50, but you get 5% off if you pay by cash or venmo. The service was very quick and the server who brought my ice cream out to my table was friendly. The single scoop was a generous portion and it came with oreos which was a nice surprise. The flavor was right on point, not too sweet, but you can still taste the pandan in each bite. I'll have to come back next time to try their other desserts!

    Pandan Delight

    I tried the pandan delight in the first time and so impressed the taste. I highly recommend this drink. They also have nice service!!!!! Always ask usk if we need to help.

    Hot coffee
    Nick N.

    Came here with my dad for some coffee after lunch on his recommendation. Now my dad is very hard to please when it comes to food and drink - particularly Vietnamese coffee. He spoke very highly of this place which is all but a guaranty of quality. Sure enough, I was very satisfied with the coffee, it's on the stronger side which is perfect to me. I had iced while he had the hot. We were helped by Alisha who was very friendly. Very cozy, classic coffee shop vibe. Pay with cash / zelle / venmo for 5% off! Also free wifi so come here and enjoy some good coffee and desserts to relax or do some work.

    Ask the Community - September

    Do they have plugs for laptops?

    Yes, there are charging stations in the walls. Please ask for assistance if you need help locating.

    Do you guys offer an alternative for milk, so instead of whole milk, can we replace it with oat milk?

    Yes they offer oat milk, almond milk and soy milk for alternative

    Is this place dine in only or is to-go available?

    Both, dine in and to-go

    Do they accept cash?

    Yes they do!

    Does the place still sells the "ice cream hotpot" if so, how much is it? Because I can't seem to find it on your menu here

    I went 23 days ago (and left a review) and they still had it then! It was about $30, I believe.

    Do you use any peanuts/peanut products in your drinks/food?

    We are a peanut free cafe. However we do have almond, so almond was processed in the same facility as peanut.

    Good place for studying? Any plugs?

    There's a lot of seating that would be great for studying but there are not many outlets.

You really can't go wrong with the flavors here and each week, they have new swirls (two flavors mixed), and they also have seasonal flavors. For example, in August, they launched their banana milk flavor which was so good if you are a fan of that banana candy flavor! For filling, I usually order the custard, but the Nutella is so good too! Service: The servers are always so nice and allow you to get as many toppings as you want at the end on top of the soft serve! Ambiance: Somisomi's are usually pretty small with no tables to sit. However, there are usually tables outside the location. The stores are always well lit, fun, and lively! Please try this for a sweet treat on a hot day that you can't go wrong with!

    SomiSomi!!! Hmmm where to start??…read more My go-to order? Cookies & Cream soft serve with Oreo crumbles, coconut flakes, and Nutella at the bottom. If happiness had a flavor, I'm pretty sure this would be it. The ah-boong cone is already amazing on its own, but adding that Nutella surprise at the bottom feels like finding money in your jacket pocket except better, because it's chocolate yay.. Everyone is incredibly friendly, patient, and always willing to explain the menu.. Parking at this location is surprisingly easy, which is a "W" given the OC life.. There aren't a ton of tables outside. But honestly, that's part of the charm. You'll see people hanging out.. chatting..standing with their ice cream or eating it in their cars which is the full immersive experience Inside seating is available, but when it gets busy, the place has a fun energy with people coming and going, all united by the pursuit of excellent soft serve. If you've never been, do yourself a favor and go. And if you're wondering what to order, Cookies & Cream with Oreo, coconut flakes, and Nutella is a life decision you probably won't regret.

We ordered three things; mint chocolate chip, rose, and milk and cereal. All with a bubble waffle cone. The service was disappointing, the guy who worked there seemed like he didn't care and it was just another job. No life to him and was just rude about asking the code for the bathroom. The mint and chip is basic. Nothing too much about it. My kids like it, so I got it. Average 3/5. The rose ice cream tasted like a rose, it was pretty good and very floral. The disappointing part is I was hoping the ice cream would be shaped like a rose as depicted on the picture. Nope, just a scoop and left it as is. 5/5 for taste and 0/5 for presentation. The milk and cereal one was actually pretty good. Especially with Frosted Flakes in it. It literally taste like cereal. 5/5. I would give it a higher star if the service complimented it and th presentation of the rose ice cream did.
