Miss F.

Have not gotten to visit here in a while. What a treat. Especially the pumpkin spice chai. Clean, enjoyable, friendly warm place. Highly recommend and I will continue to support. Thank you

Berry scone and cafe au lait
Maria O.

This place has plenty of parking so it's pretty accessible. I was warmly greeted and my questions were answered gracefully. The interior is decorated with origami cranes and Japanese art. I ordered a cafe au lait and a berry scone. The scone was baked perfectly and went well with my warm beverage.

We ordered the vanilla latte and matcha latte. The matcha was high quality and tasted what matcha should taste like. My husband enjoyed his vanilla latte. We also ordered the almond croissant and asked for it heated which made the filling overflow and the croissant a bit soggy since it was heated in the microwave. Not sure if it was in the microwave seconds too long, but next time we will not ask for the pastries to be heated. But the almond croissant was still tasty just very messy. Customer service was very friendly.

Visited one coffee shop and now I'm debating moving to Los Osos. Yokoso is everything good about the small coastal town of Los Osos. This cafe is so cozy that I almost canceled my plans to soak in the neighborly vibes. I visited on a road trip up the coast of CA and grabbed a sweet pastry and an iced matcha latte with vanilla to-go. My only mistake was ordering a small. The drink was gone in minutes. I'd easily return and order this matcha by the gallon and I suggest you do the same.

Cortado with oat milk. Perfect. Can get with a matcha flavored Pocky (Japanese cookie stick). $5.50.

These are the sweetest, most welcoming people! The coffee drinks are top notch and the hang is good for socializing or working. I enjoyed a delicious ham and cheese croissant. Decor has a Japanese theme. WiFi is medium-good; had a few issues with a dropped signal. Pups welcome at outdoor tables. Seating is mostly tables with some soft seating in back. Will return!

Hair in the bottom of a pastry liner

The pastries were a big miss for me and the matcha latte was mid and tasted diluted. The orange cardamom bun was dry and the spinach danish was soggy. There was a hair in the bottom of one pastry liner.

Quiche Lorraine
Wells C.

It felt like going to a friend's place to hang out. I loved the ambiance with the wood furniture and art decorating the walls. The owner came by and chatted with us. I ordered a matcha latte, pour over coffee, a quiche lorraine. It was delicious. I will definitely visit again.

Matcha Latte

Yokoso Coffee is again a wonderful place to go! They often add new pastries, including pies and cakes. I can't recommend their Matcha Cake enough. Balanced, light, fluffy, and a joy for my taste buds! And as always, the service is excellent, and Michael and his team are very kind-hearted.

Ceremonial Matcha Latte.. simply delicious!
Dug S.

That time, I tried the spicy miso ramen and omg, I think I loved it even more! It is pretty spicy though so keep that in mind when ordering. I love the pickled ginger and green onions in the ramen I just wish the soft boiled egg was included but you have to pay a few bucks extra for that. Overall, this is definitely a spot to hit up every vacation.

The overall vibe felt like the employees didn't want to be there. Service was extremely slow, and it seemed like they were short-staffed. At one point I went inside for a soda refill and saw one of the employees with her purse out counting cash tips. A few minutes later she was serving food, which wasn't something I expected to see. Our food came out in 15-minute intervals instead of all together, so some of us were finished eating before others even received their meals. We also got drink refills with no ice, which was just another odd detail. To top it off, everyone in our group developed diarrhea just a few hours after eating there. I can't say for certain what caused it, but it was enough that none of us will be returning. Very disappointing experience overall.

Stopped in for lunch while on a day trip to SLO. It's in the back of the creamery complex, we had a…read moreslight problem finding it. There is handicap parking (and other parking) right outside the door in the lot off Nipomo St. We arrived before noon and it was already filling up, we sat at the sushi bar. Ordered a range of things - broiled mackerel, a natto hand roll, their Hamapenõ roll and a vegetable roll. I guess they don't get too many natto orders because a nice woman came over to me to ask me if I knew what natto was, which made me laugh. I wouldn't recommend anyone take a big bite of natto if they aren't familiar (it's unusual to American palates, but I love it). It would be kind of like taking a big bite of blue cheese if you've never had it before. You don't see broiled mackerel in many American restaurants (I don't see many American based Izakayas outside of Honolulu)- it's a strong tasting fish, this mackerel was delicious and well prepared. They also have hamachi and salmon collars, which I'll try on another visit. I like vegetable rolls, but in most places they're not executed very well. This was an outstanding vegetable roll - nice crunch on the vegetables, great assortment. The hamapenõ roll was next level good. Not too spicy, but a fantastic range of flavors and textures - including ponzu jelly on the top, which was savory and sweet simultaneously and a perfect foil for the rest of the roll. There was a lunch menu which would cut down on the cost - and you should also scan the code to see the daily specials. I missed that until I was finished. Unfortunately for me, I did not order my spare stomach from Amazon in time for that meal. It's a three- hour round trip for us, but we will come back because it's that good - and it's a pleasant drive from Santa Barbara. SLO itself is nice too. Service was kind and attentive, the restaurant is clean and nicely decorated. A+. FWIW, nobody asked me to write a review, and I did not tell them I was Yelp elite.

To eat I had the Kanpai Boat for which comes with miso soup, cucumber salad, rice or salad, 10 pc nigiri, 2 or 1 roll(s) of your choice, and 8 pc tataki or sashimi. Everything I had was fresh and was good quality. For $48 (minus tip and tax), this was such a steal! They sat me at a sushi bar with other solo diners. Everything was clean and I had enough room for my sushi boat. The service here was also really good. Overall, I'd recommend this place to anyone visiting SLO looking for good quality sushi at good prices.

There are several things that are super special to me about this place, starting with the…read moreincredible freshness of every bite I've ever eaten here. I especially love the house made dressings on the bowls. My favorite is the Yuzu Ginger dressing, which I always order on my Chowa Okie (Poke) Bowl, instead of the spicy mayo. I love it that one can choose brown rice, white rice, or greens as the base to the bowls, or any combo of the above. The pickled veggies in the Poke salad are so special to me. I also really love the Bulgogi Rice Bowl with filet mignon and their yummy house made Gochujang glaze dressing. They used to have outdoor seating only, but have an indoor dining area now. I enjoy the ambiance very much, with the most fantastic Japanese mural on the wall, and these charming parasols hanging from the ceiling. When you walk in you order at the counter at the door, then grab your silverware and napkins and take a seat anywhere you like. At the end of the meal, guests bus their own dishes. I highly recommend Chowa Bowl in Morro Bay!

Cute little place with lovely decor- very inviting. You order the minute you come inside. It's very casual and when you are done you put your empty dishes away in the back. If you order a drink it's self serve as well. The poki bowl was abundant and I got half rice and half greens, the cubes fish was fresh. I just wished couple of sauces were offered such as eel or teriyaki sauce, ponzu sauce, or spicy mayo sauce on the side. The sauces would have given it the extra life. Now the ramens....complete passes on both. Noodle texture was probably the best thing for both ramens. Both broth was too sweet and it didn't pass for me as a tasty ramen of any sort. Edible...sure, but I wouldn't come back to eat this.
