    This coffee shop is located on the corner of Zelzah and chatsworth, plenty of parking on their lot or street as alternative. The coffee shop is small inside yet cozy and quiet. Ambiance includes dimmed lights which are helpful if you are using screen time or reading. I walked in and was greeted by the girl at the front and I proceeded to place my order for a mango matcha latte; iced. The bottom of the drink contains sweet mango jelly which I thought to a pretty creative for a matcha drink. Once mixed, the flavors balanced and it was not overly sweet. Matcha flavor was just right. I also bought a Labubu jelly. It was a delicate sweet treat paired up with my drink. I'd like to try out the coffee flavors next.

    After shopping at a nearby store I came here to get coffee. Found them on Yelp of course. They have boba as well. I ordered the Vietnamese coffee and asked the barista to make it less sweeter than usual. He was so nice he went and got a sample of the coffee and asked me if I want it less sweet. I said yes and sure enough he made it perfect. I enjoyed every sip. Really delicious. Now that's what a great customer service is. They have indoor seating and a bench outside. Great place to stop by, many drinks to choose from. Ambiance is chill.

    Solid coffee spot in Granada Hills! Parking lot is small but there is street parking available so it's not too bad. There are tables to sit inside. I like the menu because they had a lot of different matcha options. I opted for the cocoa matcha which I give them 5/5 for creativity. I've never seen matcha and cocoa combined before. I was a little disappointed that the only milk option was almond. But you can customize sweetness levels! Drinks came out fast and flavor was good! The Vietnamese coffee was good as well but since my husband got the tiramisu Vietnamese coffee, he said it was too sweet. I'm looking forward to trying more options next time!!

    Nice little boba shop! I've only been to the last one a handful of times before they got replaced by these guys. The parking lot is extremely tiny but we've gotten lucky the past two times we've been here! A few customers, not super crowded, cute seating inside with a few tables as well. Drinks are made super quick which is nice. Their Vietnamese coffee is strong, as it should be! The boba however is just okay. The second time we visited, the chewiness was much better. The first one wasn't as chewy and almost as if the just microwaved it, that's the kind of texture it had. Overall their drinks are great and love the cute rounded cups! IG: @ammysalamii

    I was craving some matcha and saw this place was down the street from where I was earlier. It's in a small shopping center, minimal parking up front otherwise it's street parking. Inside is tiny, some seating but it's more of a grab and go kinda spot. I got the strawberry matcha with almond milk to try out (no boba) and it's more on the bitter side of flavor. I like the "grassy" flavor of matcha so to me it was good, but if you want it a little sweeter have them add in honey or a syrup. Drink was made to order, came out quickly even with a few people ahead of me. Service was great and all the baristas were friendly!

    Amazing service! I was indecisive and asked for a recommendation. The barista suggested the crème brûlée and it was better than I could've imagined. Sweet like the dessert and strong without a bitter taste.

    I saw how fun the drinks looked and sounded so I couldn't wait to go and try. I ordered two different drinks to try. They were just ok to me. I wish it was a little sweeter with more flavor. When I went, I didn't see the fun toppings that were in a lot of the yelp photos. It's a tiny coffee shop with just a few tables. The setup could be different to utilize the space more. When I go for coffee with friends we like to go and stay for an hour or two and catch up, but I noticed no public restroom. This is not a place I would frequent because of that and catch up with friends. I would probably go again and give this place another shot but it won't be my go to daily spot.

    This is a nice hidden gem for coffee! Parking was easy, plenty of parking mid day. The shop is small but still has seating if you want to hangout. The baristas were so friendly and made my drink super quick. I got an iced Saigon street coffee and it was so flavorful and delicious, and it woke me up! I will definitely be back!

    Another great independent coffee and boba shop has opened in the valley and this place is great for studying, catching up with a friend, or to just chill and read a book. I had the creme brûlée Vietnamese iced coffee and it was perfect as is. Vietnamese coffee is known to be sweetened with condensed milk and strong. It's the only coffee that keeps me up at night and this cup definitely kept me tossing and turning all night. I went during Granda Hills holiday parade event on a Sunday afternoon so they were definitely slammed with parade goers but they were very efficient with the rush. Service was quick and friendly and parking in a small lot with other small businesses.

    My kids love this place. I thought they would want the Labubu topping but they actually went for the baby dragons. The staff was super sweet too

    Sea Salt Coffee with chocolate chip Labubu and Green and Brown Coffee with chocolate chip Labubu.

    First time at Urban Strip and so glad we stopped by to try them out. One of our friends told us about Urban Strp as they know we love specialty coffee drinks and milk teas. Urban Strip specialty coffee and milk tea shop is so cute and welcoming. As soon as we walked in we saw the cute Labubus at the order counter. The setting of the place was very modern and open with huge glass window and bench style seating. The cashier was awesome and provided excellent customer service. We ordered Green and Brown Coffe and Sea Salt Coffee with chocolate gelatin Labubus as toppings. Love the Sea Salt Coffee. You can tast the Vietnamese coffee and sea salt. It was a good balance as one did not overtake the flavor of another. The sea salt foam was a perfect balance to the strong Vietnamese coffee. The Labubu chocolate chip gelatin was a good blend to the Vietnamese sea salt foam. The Green and Brown Coffee was delicious and a superb blend of Vietnamese coffee and matcha. Can't wait to come back to try other items on the menu.

    Creamy Thai Tea with Boba

    This is a whole on the wall boba joint in Granada hills. They have a few drinks on the menu and The creamy Thai tea with boba caught my attention. The drink was the perfect sweetness. The boba was perfectly soft not too chewy. The staff was friendly and was able to answer questions about the ingredients on some drinks. I will definitely be coming back to try their matcha.

    Service is quick, coffee is good and plenty of inside seating ( no outside) Located on the east side of zelzah with plenty of party. Option to get a lebubu for additional $2.50 added to the drink. Inside is modern and well lit

My friend and I stopped by on a Saturday after Pilates class and it was quite packed. If you can, I'd suggest visiting on a weekday or very early in the morning to beat the crowd. We were excited to find that even the small bowl $12 plus tax, offers so much variety. You get to choose your base, toppings, drizzle, and "mix-ins" like bee pollen, granola, chocolate chips, and fresh strawberries. My bowl with strawberries, pudding, bee pollen, and honey was delicious and surprisingly filling! Beyond the bowls, they have freshly made empanadas! We shared a chicken empanada and it was incredible--served steaming hot with a crunchy crust and a moist, flavorful traditional filling. It also came with hot sauce and chimichurri on the side which added a great kick. The atmosphere inside is brightly lit with plenty of tables and even games to play while you eat. The customer service was very polite and despite the constant flow of people picking up to-go orders, everything ran smoothly. I'm already wanting another bowl! Highly recommend checking this place out~~~

Street parking is free but extremely limited. Venue 4 stars: Nicely appointed, inviting, cozy and homey, medium sized venue with indoor tables and a couple of small outdoor tables and stools.

You can order one of their signature Acai creations or customize your own. We had the Ubatuba Bowl customized as (1) strawberries, bananas, honey, granola, diced almonds and shaved coconut and (2) strawberries, bananas, honey, granola, Nutella and mangos. Both were excellent and highly recommended. The Bottom Line 4 stars: A great choice when craving some good Acai. Highly recommended!

    Visited: 4/1/26 & 4/26/26…read more DRINKS Dalgona Matcha Viet Coffee ($6.25) - 7/10 This drink was enjoyable overall, but the matcha didn't taste very high quality. It leaned more on the milky side rather than having that deeper, slightly earthy matcha flavor you'd expect. It still had a nice sweetness and was easy to drink, but if you're someone who really appreciates strong, authentic matcha, this might fall a bit short. Viet Coffee with Sea Salt Foam ($6.25) - 7.5/10 My sister ordered this at 50% sweetness, which ended up being a great choice since 100% would likely be overpowering. The sea salt foam added a nice creamy contrast that balanced the drink well. However, it didn't quite capture the rich taste of traditional Vietnamese coffee and instead tasted more like a sweeter, standard iced coffee. Still good, just not very authentic in flavor. The Nutty Latte ($6.75) - 4/10 This one wasn't for me at all. The texture was extremely thick and chunky, making it difficult and honestly unpleasant to drink. It felt like drinking straight peanut butter mixed with milk, and the chunks would sometimes get stuck in my throat. It also didn't resemble a latte in either texture or taste. Iced Rose Latte with Cheese Foam and Honey Boba ($6.25 + $0.85 + $0.85) - 7.5/10 If you enjoy floral drinks, especially rose, you'll likely enjoy this one. The rose flavor is definitely present without being too overpowering, and the cheese foam adds a slight savory contrast that keeps it interesting. The honey boba adds a bit of extra sweetness and texture. Overall, it's a solid drink, just nothing particularly standout compared to other rose lattes. FOOD Mozzarella Cheese Sticks ($5.25) - 6/10 These come with your choice of sauce, and I went with ranch. They're very standard mozzarella sticks, nothing particularly memorable or unique. The cheese wasn't as melty as I would've liked, and the breading was noticeably thick, which made them feel a bit heavy. They're fine if you're craving something fried, but not something I'd go out of my way to get again. Okonomi French Fries ($5.25) - 7/10 The sauce is definitely the highlight here! It has a slightly sweet flavor that makes the fries more enjoyable and adds something different. Unfortunately, the fries themselves were a bit underwhelming. They tasted slightly stale, lacked seasoning, and weren't as crispy as they should have been. Chicken Wings ($7.75) - 8.5/10 This was surprisingly the best item! The chicken was fresh, hot, and had a really satisfying crunch. While they weren't heavily seasoned on their own, the texture and freshness made up for it, and the ranch dipping sauce helped add more flavor. Definitely a solid choice if you want something savory alongside your drink. How to Order: Ordering is done through a touchpad system, which makes the process quick and easy, especially when it's busy. They also have a very wide variety of drinks on the menu, so there's something for pretty much everyone, whether you like coffee, tea, or more unique specialty drinks. Seating: This is a great place to study or hang out for longer periods of time. There's plenty of indoor seating along with accessible outlets, which makes it convenient if you need to get work done. However, it can get very loud and hectic during the week since a lot of students come here, sometimes to the point where it feels chaotic with people talking loudly or even yelling. Weekends are generally a bit calmer, but the music is still played fairly loud, so it may not be ideal if you're sensitive to noise unless you bring noise-canceling headphones. I didn't mind it at all and could work normally. Atmosphere: One big plus is that they're open late until midnight, which makes it a really convenient late-night spot whether you're studying or just want somewhere to relax. The shop itself has a modern, casual vibe, and the high traffic gives it a lively atmosphere, though that can be a downside depending on what you're looking for. Parking: It's located in a plaza, so parking is relatively easy and accessible. Restroom: The restroom requires a code to access and is relatively clean, which is always appreciated.

    So my actual drink was good but my experience ordering wasn't good :/ I ordered ahead of time so…read morethat when I got there I could just go in and grab my Honeydew Slush but after 15 mins, my order wasn't ready yet. I started to wonder if there was only one person making all the drinks? There's one kiosk where you can order and every now and then someone will come out from the curtains to bring out orders. Just a weird set up and very slow service. The place is busy with CSUN students which is cool but almost 30 mins for 1 drink is way too long! Especially when I ordered ahead of time. People who were ordering from the Kiosk inside were getting their orders before me? haha I'm sure it's a good place and I just had a bad experience today!
