Might I say one of the best lattes I’ve had on my many visits to California. The banana latte was incredible. The banana matcha was pretty good but didn’t have a bang like the banana latte. It was still absolutely delicious. Oh and I really liked the structure of the sip lid. Will be back some day, thank you.

Friendly staff. Beautiful interior. The vibes are high here. The seating is comfortable and there are many spots. Great for working or getting coffee with a friend. Now let’s talk about the coffee. We got the flight to try different types. We got the ube coffee, pandan coffee, Vietnamese coffee, and a strawberry matcha. The ube and pandan was a cold cream on top of the Vietnamese coffee base. The Vietnamese coffee here is out of this world. It’s smooth and strong and delicious. Wow. I could drink this coffee all day. The matcha was also delicious. I love a good strawberry matcha. As soon as we finished, we wanted to order another one. It was that yummy!

This coffee was so delicious!!! I got the toasted marshmallow latte with whole milk and it was a 10/10. My cousin got a regular iced latte with oat milk. We also got a yummy chocolate croissant.This place is so cute too! Great place to study with a friend or get some work done!

Really enjoyed spending time with friends today at EM Coffee. Loved their drink flight and desserts, especially the bear-shaped mochi dessert. It’s not overly sweet. The environment is great as well. Highly recommend this spot for studying or chatting with friends.

Beautiful interior. Good vibes. Lots of seating but very full when I visited. Caramel corn latte was to die for. Notes on tables request customers to limit visits to 3 hours. Lovely spot. Would request cup lid to be more secure to cup.

Had a delightful experience! So many good options it’s hard to choose. The menu location isn’t the best placement. But the person at the counter recommended the white trufflemisu and it didn’t disappoint! Cute decor. Spacious and clean indoor seating. No line when I went Sunday morning @9:30. Ample parking. Definitely worth checking out if you like Vietnamese coffee!

Soft opening so some hiccups are expected. The service was very friendly, A+ there. That said, they didn’t seem to know the menu or point of sale system well, and made numerous errors while we tried to order. They also ran out of two out of the three drinks and we had to change our order after waiting for approximately 15 minutes. Like I said, this is a brand new store so we expected some growing pains. The drinks and quality of the ingredients are top notch and I’ll definitely be back.

This is NOT a review of the drinks, because I didn’t order one. The coffee shop is clean and tucked away in a plaza that isn’t too busy, although when I went on a random Tuesday morning the coffeeshop was still crowded. There are enough small tables, but nothing suitable for large groups. The place is nice and well-lit, and the barista is friendly and the WiFi is fast. The WiFi speed is about 400 Mbps down and 8 Mbps up. There are power outlets along the wall, and parking is easy to find. The bear cheese thing was also pretty tasty, which is what I ordered. Since I didn’t order coffee at a coffee shop, this is kind of a footnote to me. Maybe I’ll come back and try the coffee sometime!

Friends got the coffee flight with Viet iced coffee, milk tea, super coconut, and white truffle misu to share. Personal drinks were biscoff egg coffee and pandan cream. I personally really like the basic ca phe sua da and the super coconut ice cream from em creations; the milk tea was ok and the white truffle misu was too creamy for me. Would probably skip the coffee flight or any creamy drinks and just go for the basics next time. Viet iced coffee is best! ☕️

Finally checked this place out last night and it did not disappoint. They have a wide range of drinks to choose from and everything is so decently priced! Ordered the Em Coffee Flight and it was amazing. You get to choose all 4 drinks which is a big plus on this order and for the price you can’t beat it. The drinks we got all tasted delicious and were gorgeous, can’t wait to try more. It’s located in a good area and it’s roomy inside with a few tables but it does fill up fast. The girls working last night were absolutely friendly and helpful.

Enter into an oasis to delight the senses and leave the daily grind outside. Em Coffee House is pleasantly, simply elegant. From comfy tasty drinks and eats to comfy seats to friendly staff, this is a coffee home. Kudos to the tasteful displays. The drinks were beautifully crafted, the waffle bears tasty. Making this a weekly tradition.

I love Vietnamese Coffee. They got old schools and new school coffee. Robusta and Arabica. The first thing that caught my eye was the beautiful paint color and European-inspired decor. The dishes are vibrant and visually appealing, clearly catering to a younger crowd, though the prices are on the higher side. The cafe also offers a nice selection of European teas and strong Vietnamese-style filter coffee, with both Robusta and Arabica options. There’s plenty of seating inside and lots of parking outside, making it a convenient spot.

I got the banana bread matcha and it was probably the best matcha I’ve had in my entire life. Not to be absolutely dramatic, but it was life changing. Was it $8? Yes. Would I spend it again on this matcha? absolutely. I’m so picky when it comes to matcha and that was amazing. 10/10 will be bringing all of my friends here.

Delicious coffee!! And that mint green foam 🤤 so, so yummy. If you haven't gone, try them out. I'll be back for sure. ♡

Our reason for coming here was their coffee flight! ☕️ My sister-in-law and I are avid coffee enthusiasts, so we dedicated an entire day to exploring new coffee spots we hadn’t tried before. The only thing we regret is not getting to try their “Bear Waffles” — we didn’t notice it on the menu until later! Getting to sample four different coffees was such a treat, and honestly, I’ve never seen a flight that wasn’t for alcoholic drinks before — So this was a fun twist. The vibe here is friendly and comforting, perfect for hanging out with family, friends, or even your coffee buddies (yes, that’s totally a thing!). If you ever need a coffee buddy, invite me — I’d love to join your next outing! 🫰🏼

I have not been in the physical store but I have ordered DoorDash multiple times and I love their coffee!! Their coffee is really smooth, the right amount of sweetness and milky for me. I have gotten the Marble Latte each time with also adding Matcha foam to it sometimes. The Matcha taste like good quality matcha and not overly sweet. I also recommend their Banana Bread!! They also have pebbled ice - 10/10.

Vietnamese coffee! Always on the search for some yummy Vietnamese coffee (Caphe Sua Da)and we found this wonderful place. Their Caphe Sua Da was delicious! The coffee was strong with good flavor and not overly sweet. We also got their Ube Babe which was sweet and delicious. I also came to their cafe during their one year anniversary celebration and got myself a free tumbler. It is so cute! Can’t wait to use it 😊 They had a nice festive backdrop also. We will return soon to try more drinks.

Nice place for studying and strong Vietnamese coffee. I love their bear waffle with custard. I tried their egg biscoff brûlée drink today and it was way too sweet. Not sure if I like it. Got a bunch of custard waffle bears though!

This is quite a popular new Vietnamese coffee shop. I think they are still in their soft opening when we went and it was already packed on a weekday afternoon. The coffee was very strong but tasty. Ordered the phin coffee special and the affogato with vanilla ice cream. Will have to come back to try the affogato with coconut option next time! The coffee flight also looks very good and am looking forward to coming back to try that. But maybe with more people to help since portions were large and all that espresso will guarantee a bad night of no sleep for me. Lol Cute decor inside and lots of little tables. We were able to snag a table after waiting a few minutes.

Vietnamese coffee seems to be the trend now. Definitely like the flavors. Don't like the calories though. They have a good selection here. Sometimes there's a bit of a wait as there is always a line here. I'm very glad that this business seems to be thriving here. As the previous business is here. Never stuck around. I will come back and give support.

Ordered the Iced Caramel Macchiato and it costed me $6.73. Too much milk taste and not enough coffee. Inside looks pretty good but all available seats and table are dirty. Overall, price isn’t bad and coffee is decent. I wish they would clean the tables.

Come here for the aesthetic. Seating is often full and half the tables have outlets, which makes it a great place to get work done for a while or catch up with a friend. I wouldn't take a large group here to dine in, or plan to sit inside for longer than an hour or two. It's pretty inside, and the cups design and drink presentation are very pretty and thoughtful. There's wifi, a restroom, a handful of outlets, but it's moderately busy most of the time I've been in Though the iced drinks are delicious, I have gotten less and less of it in my cup each time. Particularly the iced coffees and matcha einspanners are yummy, but even asking for less ice, I've opted to stick to the hot drinks lately because of what I see in my cup. For how much it is, and the local competition, I like this place best for quick study/work sessions, coffee, and treating a friend out
