Koffi Rancho Mirage — Restaurant in Rancho Mirage

A Hidden Gem with Room to Grow

I stopped by this spot on a whim one afternoon, and I have to say — my first visit was impressive. The service was absolutely impeccable: attentive, friendly, and fast. It felt like one of those rare dining experiences where everything just clicks. That alone was enough to bring me back for another round.

On subsequent visits, however, the service wasn’t quite as polished. While the staff remained courteous, the attentiveness and consistency weren’t quite at the same level as that stellar first impression. That said, food and drinks still arrived quickly, even during busier times.

Speaking of drinks — they’re worth trying, especially if you're looking for something refreshing to enjoy on the spacious patio. While I found them enjoyable overall, the consistency varied a bit from visit to visit. One day the cocktail was perfectly balanced, the next it leaned a little heavy on one ingredient. Still, nothing was ever bad — just a little hit or miss.

One big plus is the convenience: there's plenty of parking, which is rare and appreciated, and the outdoor seating area is a great spot to relax, especially on a nice day. Inside, the vibe is lively — it can get a bit crowded and noisy, but that energy is part of the charm if you're in the mood for a bustling atmosphere.

Overall, this place shows real promise. It’s got the bones of a local favorite: great drinks, fast service, and an inviting space. With a little more consistency, especially in service and drink prep, it could easily become a go-to staple for locals and...

This place is a local coffee house. I'm not a fan of coffee so I really can't review the coffee even though it smells pretty good inside. Mostly reviewing the food which is pretty good. It can get noisy and crowded and extremely busy so you want to make sure that you are very specific when you order. I ordered a toasted bagel with some cream cheese and I ordered extra cream cheese but they forgot to put it in. I didn't find out until I got home which was not the end of the world because I have my own cream cheese that I can use. It was just kind of a bummer because I paid for the extra cream cheese according to my receipt. I suppose it's my own fault because I didn't check their work before I left. I guess I will never learn to check the bag before I walk away when ordering to go food or food from a drive-thru. So if you order something to go just double check that they got it right because it gets busy and everybody's human. But for the most part everybody there seemed really happy and this place seems to have a loyal local crowd that goes...

I actually live on the road, and always strive to find unique places to satisfy my caffeine addiction.

This is one of the best places I have ever been. As a coffee connoisseur, and you can look at my travel posts to verify this, I love a place that pays so close attention to detail as to roast and make the perfect cup.

A couple in my group had various teas, but I opted for a light roasted espresso. If by chance you have never had a light roasted espresso, let me highly recommend that you stop by and get a drink.

The lighter the roast, the more caffeine there is. Also, the lighter a roast is the more intrinsic variability there is in the bean. Dark roast have a higher charcoal content. light roasts bring out the nuances of the bean and add a flavor dimension and complexity that is unparalleled.

I highly recommend that you stopped by this place for your dessert, meeting, or just to connect with Friends. There's lots of seating, and lots of choices of outstanding...
