Trung Nguyen E-Coffee — Restaurant in Long Beach

Extra Ice Problem Solved!

My first initial review of this place boiled down to: this place put too much ice in their egg coffee! And I cited other patrons expressing similar sentiments in their reviews as the evidence that I am right. I am so glad I returned to this place and gave them another chance. Here is how to solve the lots-of-ice problem: order your egg coffee 30 minutes before. See -- I came to this solution by accident: I called ahead [30 minutes] and ordered an egg coffee. By the time I arrive, the extra ice have melted. This place has a sign near the cash register explaining why their drinks have so much ice; their explanation is actually The Truth. Their egg coffee drinks are Very Thick; give it 30 minutes to melt the ice ---- then a customer will get a fair amount of drink, without the extra ice. Their egg coffee is truly extra thick that with ice melted ------- still tasting great!!

Okay: Trung E-Coffee, I solve your mystery! And I saved your reputation!

A free egg coffee for me?

Just...

I ordered a large hot hazelnut cream. As you can see from the photo, it is not filled to the top and the top is foam; not the actual coffee. When I asked why, they said everything is poured to measurement. Really?! I commented "why order a large if I'm going to get a serving of a small cup?" She shrugged it off and said "there's less coffee in all of the cup sizes." Seems like a bait and switch tactic. Vietnamese coffee places are always cheating their customers on serving portions. A large portion of your customers come from the hospital across the street. Developing a bad reputation is not good for your business. Don't be cheap. Do better and provide good value for...

Been in town for the past week to visit family and explore LA and I gotta say, this place has been THE go-to. We’ve been to multiple coffee shops from LA down to Long Beach and it’s been our favorite. This is the third day in a row we’ve been lol.

We’ve tried 9 different drinks so far and they’ve all been great. Our favs: Salted, Egg, Black Sesame Espresso, and Pistachio Espresso.

The specialty coffees are definitely on the decadent side, so just keep that in mind.

Might have to come back tomorrow for our last coffee before we head home haha.

Also, really kind folks behind the counter!

Pls open...
