I'm a huge fan of any cream top, known as their "Clouds", which is why Q has been my favorite. :) (This is also my kind request to add a Banana Cloud line for both matcha and coffee, pretty pls..)

The shop itself is beautiful--very modern, clean, and aesthetically pleasing. It's definitely the kind of place where you'll want to sit and enjoy the atmosphere. The drinks are a little on the pricier side, but honestly, they're worth it. I ordered the Matcha Velvet Latte, which came with a really nice matcha cloud on top. The presentation was great, and the drink itself was delicious. One thing I really appreciate is that they carefully measure everything that goes into each drink, so you can expect the same consistent quality every time you visit. Highly recommend the Matcha Velvet Latte if you're a matcha fan!

There was a lot of natural light in the coffee shop, definitely a visually-appealing, 'aesthetic' place. I got an iced red tea and it was delicious. The tea was botanical, smooth and fragrant. Amazing experience! Excited to come back and try the coffee and pastries, which looked super fresh.

It seems like there's also an upstairs but did not get the chance to check it out. I got an iced latte with their almond macadamia milk, and they're also so nice to do complimentary cold brew! So we got an extra drink for free. Trying the iced latte, it was pretty disappointing lol. I thought it would be similar to like a Hawaiian style latte with macadamia milk, but it was a lot lighter than I thought. It was definitely very nutty, but it also just tasted like water down latte. Honestly not much going on with the drink, but it does taste lighter in general. Crazy have to pay $1.50 more to add on this milk. Overall, its alright. I do like the natural lighting coming into the shop, but nothing too special.

I noticed that they were super rude to them The staff made eye contact and purposely ignore them until they left. So unprofessional.

I thought their coffee was not quite as specialty as what I typically get, but they were able to make some modifications for me, which I really appreciated. Both the coffee and pastry I got were really good, but I would personally lean more toward their pastries than their drinks. They're definitely a very hopping spot, too. They had a lot of people coming in, and every time I walked by, they were completely packed. Overall, a cute spot with good pastries and coffee!

And I love that they allow you to bring your own cup and give a 75 cent discount if you do! They have a lot of seating inside and outside but it's quite a popular place (at least on a Sunday morning!) so it was hard to find an open table. The employees were very friendly and were happy to answer my questions about the various pastries they have.

Now, the coffee, it was ok and that's the rub. I went with something unique called the Yemeni Latte and idk if I liked that added masala blend. It might have been a very good coffee otherwise, but I couldn't really tell. They have a cool dessert display and I was tempted to get something. The baklava was fine. OMG, sugar overload, but you know that baklava is, so... :) Had my sugar fix probably for 1 week just from that.

One of my favorite matcha spots in the city!…read more Their matcha is beautifully rich and umami-forward, with a smooth, balanced finish. I especially love that they offer Hokkaido milk, which adds a wonderfully creamy texture without overpowering the matcha. A sleeper hit is their hojicha latte, which is absolutely sensational, with distinct notes of roasted chestnut and chocolate. Definitely worth trying!

Yet another TikTok find! I was excited to try Kiss of Matcha since their menu looked so good, but…read moreoverall I thought it was just okay. The matcha unfortunately wasn't very well blended, which is always a little disappointing when matcha is the main event. I also tried the soft serve and liked the flavor, but it wasn't quite as creamy as I would've wanted. The texture was actually a little grainy, which threw me off. There's also no WiFi, so just something to keep in mind if you're hoping to come here and get some work done. That being said, they have a pretty extensive menu with a lot of different drinks and desserts, so I'd be open to coming back and trying something else. Maybe I just didn't order the right things for me!

I made a terrible mistake by thinking the boba and the black sesame foam might be sweetened but it came out super unsweetened. I regret not having like 50% sweetness. It honestly tasted like herbal tea. The staff stood behind the counter making drinks so there was no interaction with the staff. The whole shop doesn't have any ambiance at all (they played music) so I recommend getting your order and drink elsewhere.

Very good cakes. My friend bought 4 pieces and shared them at dinner and they were all really good…read more I hope this review helps you better make decisions on selecting what flavors / types of cakes you wanna get. Early grey crepe cake- if you like earl grey tea and crepe cake this would be a strong contestant. The tea flavor was immense and I liked how the layered cream was airy and a bit foamy that makes the earl grey cream the main character of the cake. Passion fruit - really good!! The passion fruit flavor was deep and strong with real seeds in the cream. It has a very slight hint of tangy and a very well done flavor profile! Sesame basque - if you like a creamy basque cheesecake and sesame then this would be wonderful. For me, basque cheesecake usually isn't my go-to as I like something more light and airy, but the black sesame was very rich and tastes almost a bit savory. Flavor profile is a bit neutral and neither too sweet or savory. Pandan sponge cakes- pandan flavor stands out and I love how they use coconut flesh in between the layers. It's pretty creative! There's texture (soft pandan sponge cake + crunchy fresh coconut ) in this cake which is interesting, but when you cut the cake it might fall apart. I would say this cake plays more with texture and creativity and less on the perfecting the taste. Don't get me wrong it's still good! Not sure about service but my friend said she interrogated the staff so that she could select the best cakes for us :) Will Def be back !

This is a great place for sliced cakes, especially if you like Asian inspired flavors. They have a…read morereally nice variety of mille crepe cakes and other desserts, with flavors like pandan, matcha, ube, taro and more. I love that you can get individual slices instead of committing to a whole cake, which makes it so easy to try several flavors in one visit. The cakes are really pretty and have so many thin layers that each bite feels light and creamy. This is perfect if you enjoy lighter cakes. I think the Asian flavors are what make Sweet Glory stand out from a lot of other cake spots in the city. There are plenty of familiar flavors, but also combinations that you don't see anywhere else. The space is also surprisingly spacious, with plenty of indoor seating and a cute patio in the back. It's a nice place to sit down with a few slices and take your time. Great dessert spot if you want to try a few different cakes in one visit. The fact that you can order by the slice makes it especially easy to explore the menu without having to choose just one.
