The cashiers were so friendly and inviting. It was my first time and then I saw the word dirty and asked what makes it dirty?! lolI left with a lot of laughs, trying a new drink - dirty matcha latte and a really good muffinI did not prefer the matcha. It wasn't bad but I like mine to be more sweet to not get the bitter aftertaste. Otherwise the crumble muffin was a treat. Just would have liked it warm but it was the middle of the day.My son enjoyed his ice cream. It was big and he didn't want to finish it...so I did! Delicious!

Super cute spot. Ordered Matcha Tea (semisweet) with a Matcha Roll. Cost me $9.47. The matcha tea was bitter to me. However, I believe, this is how proper matcha is to taste. Matcha roll was good, not too sweet. Seems like the soft-serve is very popular here. Will have to try during my next visit.

I've been waiting to try this place; honestly, it did not disappoint. Service was friendly and prompt, and the ambiance was super cute and bright. It would be a great place to work or study. I ordered the matcha soft serve in a cone, which was so good. It's not too sweet and comparable to my matcha soft serve in Little Tokyo in LA. I am so glad I finally made it, and I look forward to returning. If you're a matcha fiend like me, this is your spot.

The strawberry cream sandwich and the Matcha Kuromitsu Kinako latte were amazingly delicious! I can't recall all that was in it but I know that I thoroughly enjoyed it

The matcha is great, but this is the second time I've shown up after 11:30 and they are not open. I wish they would arrive on time or even open the store earlier since so many people wait to get here.

My boyfriend and I decided to try this place on a whim one day when we were in the plaza. I was very curious to see what they were all about since I am a matcha fan. Matcha Cafe Maiko is very unique and unlike any dessert establishment I've been too. After reviewing the menu, we settled on sharing the Maiko Special. The look of this treat reminds me of the Filipino halo-halo. The Maiko Special was refreshing and interesting; two words I wouldn't typically use to describe a dessert. It wasn't very sweet though, which I do appreciate. My boyfriend didn't love it, but he tends to lean towards desserts that are very sugary. I can't say that this is something that I would want to eat all the time, but it's a treat that I'd indulge in again. I look forward to visiting again so that I can try some other menu items. Something that I did love was the ambiance. There was a cozy, coffee-shop feel with natural touches like plants that just made it feel very welcoming. It feels like a good place to slow down, enjoy a treat and read a book or chat with a friend.

I've been meaning to come here for a few months now and I'm so glad it lived up to my expectations. The interior is cute and the staff was nice and helpful. I'm a big matcha fan but my mom who I went with isn't. I got a strawberry matcha latte with oat milk and a chocolate muffin. It was a solid strawberry matcha. The matcha was pretty mild in flavor and the strawberry made up for that. It was a perfect amount of sweet. My mom got a gingerbread latte so there are options for people who don't care for matcha. I will definitely return when I'm in the area.

The soft serve and the matcha drinks are super good!! But DO NOT get the Maiko special!!!! Probably one of the worst things we've tasted. We couldn't even finish it and it was almost $10 :(
