The Liquid Leaf — Restaurant in California

If I could give Liquid Leaf six stars, I would! This place is my daily sanctuary. I’m lucky enough to work at the dental office across the street, and Liquid Leaf has quickly become my go-to morning treat…and let’s just say, sometimes lunch too. Shhh!

The matcha here is phenomenal—truly the best I’ve had anywhere. The way they prepare it is an art, and they actually care about getting it right. They know I like it blended, not straight, and always double-check to make sure it’s exactly how I like it. They even know my name and my usual order by heart, which makes every visit feel so welcoming. Everyone is always saying hi Ryan before i get to the counter! This is so inviting.

The staff is as incredible as the drinks. The owner is one of the coolest, most professional, and friendly people you’ll meet. She has this elegant British accent and shorter hair, and she runs the place with so much care and attention to detail. I also often see this wonderful woman with glasses, who’s always quick with a friendly smile and seems to know my whole order before I even say a word. I wish I knew everyone’s names because the whole team here deserves recognition for their incredible service.

And the food! Don’t get me started on the sandwiches—each one is made from scratch, packed with fresh ingredients, and just as fantastic as their drinks. You can taste the quality in every bite. They’re so accommodating, whether it’s a morning pick-me-up or a quick lunch break treat.

In a world of chain coffee shops, Liquid Leaf is a true gem, offering not just incredible food and drinks but also a personal touch that’s so hard to...

Great atmosphere, amazingly friendly and welcoming staff, fair coffee. There just seems to be a lack of knowledge surrounding the traditional espresso coffee wares(which I realize is slightly a matter of opinion). I was given a dry cappuccino when asking for a macchiato and had to clarify a few times what was even meant by macchiato. The black coffee was not as light a roast as I would like but that is purely a matter of taste so no fault there. It wasn't bitter or under extracted so I can't fault the personal decision to select this coffee, nor would I want to. The massive diversity in roasting is what makes discovering new shops so exciting. The blueberry muffin was very good. Not overly sweet, medium density, subtle blueberry flavor which actually paired quite well with the black coffee. Was able to try the nitro coffee on my way out which was very good for those who like the texture this process brings but want a more nuanced coffee experience. Overall I'll be returning to this shop mainly because a.they are in a dry area for decent shops and b. The staff is worth the return trip making any other shortcomings easy...

I'm sad to give 2 stars especially since Liquid Leaf is so highly rated on google. I just moved to the area and I am in search of a good Matcha latte. With the amazing reviews I thought this must be the place. I'm so disappointed. I ordered a 24oz matcha latte with oat milk. I took my first sip when I got in my car and I have no idea what I was drinking, but it tasted like syrup! Unfortunately, I couldn't go back inside and complain since I was heading to pick up my kids from school. When I arrived to my daughter's school she took a sip (she's 11) and she knows how much I love a good matcha and she said woaaa that's sweet! I just got home and had my husband try it and he said what is this and what is it mixed with it's gross. I paid $16 for my matcha and a puff pastry filled with loads of spinach and hardly any cheese. There goes my money...
