Order their mango matcha or chocolate foam matcha. You wont regret it :) ### mariko.sama — 5.0/5 · Apr 22, 2024 Great Matcha quality Einspanner here at Damo. Best in town. ### anneats — 5.0/5 · Dec 20, 2024 My favorite Korean coffee shop! Drinks are a bit pricey but they are unique and delicious. Line is always out the door but the service is really fast ### user_251757324 — 3.3/5 · Jan 5, 2025 It was alright ### lafoody — 5.0/5 · Jul 18, 2025 Long line and expensive but tasty! ### the_kat — 4.3/5 · May 15, 2025 I stopped by here to try their matcha cream top with oat milk, it's the best I've had!! very clean interior and good service!! ### kamsterrrr — 4.3/5 · Jul 7, 2025 Heard they were known for their matcha. Got the strawberry matcha and eispener latte. Both tastes alright. The price is kinda pricey. ### frankiedkk — 5.0/5 · Aug 27, 2025 Good cafe, matcha is good ### janna_panna_cotta — 5.0/5 · Aug 29, 2025 DAMO does cream tops so well and makes an amazing strawberry puree! I’ve tried their strawberry einspener and strawberry tonic, and they were both so good. I’ve also had their other lattes and seasonal chestnut einspener, which always hits. Sometimes it’s busy, sometimes it’s not busy, most of the time it’s busy. The plaza has a parking lot, but again, it’s Koreatown so parking can get bad. ### justeatit — 5.0/5 · Sep 12, 2025 We got the flight board of delicious snacks and the matcha was all handmade! I got the hojicha which I really recommend. It’s like a toasted matcha. More mellow and wasn’t too sweet. It gets very busy though!
