I was really excited to try this place and dirty matcha was pretty good but inheolmi latte was meh.. nothing special other than it comes with injeolmi and it just tasted like milk. I just don't understand when there weren't that many ppl at the Cafe why i had to wait over 30min to get my drink. And only cuz I asked about it. Def not going back especially when staff there was completely clueless about what we ordered n said they were waiting on waffle which we never ordered. im giving 2star only cuz dirty matcha was pretty good.

Prices were good for LA, I got the injoelmi mochi latte and it was SOOO GOOD. They had some kind of cream on top with three Mochi slices you dip into the cream. The flavor of the latte was amazing, flavorful, the right amount of sweetness too. If you like sweeter drinks definitely get the injeolmi mochi latte, and I got it with less ice which they accommodated well. The coffee shop has parking but it’s tight, a lot of people were there when we went on Sunday afternoon but there’s seating outside. The drinks here are original and creative and pretty delicious so I definitely recommend coming here to try if you’re looking for a coffee shop to chat with friends and drink.

Is it even fair to call Cafe de Mama a coffee shop? Because to me it's a dessert shop. I mean, you can still get an Americano or a latte if you want to, but you really don't want to miss out on those ridiculously intriguing special drinks.
I tried their mochi lattes and I'm a big fan. The cream top is extremely thick that the mochi bites can almost float on it. It's not just normal whip cream, it is blended with grinded grains or herbs to create unique texture and flavor. The Injeolmi mochi latte deserves the top spot of their special drink list. Injeolmi is a variety of Korean rice cake and is slightly sweet and sticky itself. As cream top, it goes superbly well with mochi bites and highlights the chewiness. I also had the mochi latte with Mugwort Green Herb cream, and enjoyed its combination of earthiness and sweetness.
I try not to go to Cafe de Mama often because it's a dessert shop! So I've only had one other drink, the black sesame cream latte. Unlike the mochi lattes, this drink does have double shots of espresso, so it tastes darker and more intense than their sweet cream or milk based drinks, although I would say it's still creamier and less coffee-like than similar drinks you get from other coffee shops.
In terms of the atmosphere, Cafe de Mama feels more like a boba tea place than a coffee shop. The interior is simple and even a little sterile, service is friendly and no-frills. They would give you a pick up pager for your order, even though sometimes you are the only one in the store.

We stopped in as we were waiting for dinner reservations. Such a cute cafe! Very spacious, just enough seating to not overwhelm my introverted daughter who loves boba. The photos of there product helped me make my decision on what to order. It took a while for our drinks to be made. Let me tell you, it was well worth the wait! Everything tasted fresh. Nothing tasted as if it came from a frozen pre-packaged anything. The flavors were amazing. I got an espresso based tea. The coffee was made right in front of me. My daughter got a milk tea. If you haven’t been here you need try this cafe!

I can’t believe how delicious their mochi latte is! Wow! It’s my first time and I ordered the mochi latte with a shot of espresso and I do not regret it at all!

there is a parking lot in the back across from the repair center that was free mid weekday.
a back patio offers outdoor seating
they have Korean specialty drinks like injeolmi latte, sook latte (mugwart), and black sesame latte. they offer non dairy options like oat ($.75 extra)
tried to sook latte while I worked (not sure about wifi since I hot spotted myself) and it was goooooood. not too sweet and fun bc it comes with some injeolmi on top to dip in the drink.

I asked them to use Almond milk instead. It tasted good! They also have a small parking lot behind the store. It’s easy to park. I would like to try another drinks next time.

They feel more like a milk tea/coffee shop instead of simply a cafe.
Ordered Injeolmi Latte and Persimmon Milk and I truly love both.
Will come back again to try more flavors.
