Javista Hollywood

STAY AWAY!! (Tl Dr at the end)(see photos for disgusting food) I wanted to like this place, in fact I’ve ordered from here maybe 3-4 times. The food WAS decent (small portions for the price) the coffee is good but I’ve got to be honest. The service is…strange. It’s almost welcoming, half industrial, half cliche baristas who kind of ignore you. If you order online, I can confirm a 20-25% upcharge on menu prices. I can’t tell if they need to hire more people, or change their layout. But if you’re like me, and try to skip lines by ordering ahead, be aware of the increase in prices and the lack of expediency. I went in for my order today, it wasn’t fully ready, that’s totally fine. Having worked in F&B I don’t like to be one of those delivery guys who stands in the way phone out. So after being told it would be a few minutes I went to sit, well within eye-line. Literally 2-3 steps away on a stool. They had two guys working the counter and I believe the owner was sitting next to me. They proceed to finish making my coffee, take my food out of its bag for some reason and set it on the counter. The guy who helped me originally went back to making food and the other guy just totally ignored it. I wasn’t 100% sure if it was my order so I waited, even tho it was not busy. (Practically empty). A new customer, waiting for their online order walked right up, fully picked up my coffee, touching the lid with their entire palm, inspecting it before putting it back down. That’s where I’ve got to draw the line. It’s one thing to leave an order that is ready to go, (which is already suspect, why not tell me?) but to let a stranger touch where I’ll be putting my mouth? They then served her and a few other people. I had to get back up, mind you my seat was literally 2 steps away, and start the process again, get it re-bagged. I wasn’t going to make a scene but I was really grossed out a stranger unhygienically touched my drink all over. At least keep orders somewhere safe if you’re going to let them sit…which you shouldn’t be doing. On top of that check out how my Burrito came out… I picked this up myself and it was handled with care. It’s completely inedible, or looks like it was stepped on. Tl Dr: food was decent, coffee is okay, service is horrendous, upcharge for ordering ahead is wild. Check your order before leaving. Plenty of other cafes in hollywood for you to go instead. Parking is terrible since it’s on Sunset, just as an fyi

The ricotta toast and lavender lattes are completely to die for for. I mean, I’m obsessed: ricotta, dates, pistachios, pomegranates, rosemary, and honey. God. I mean , seriously.

This place is amazing. Delicious food, friendly people and really nice atmosphere. I recommend this place to everyone! There is a lot of very good food, drinks are also amazing. I'm very satisfied :)

Not a green tea fan, but have heard throughout my life about the benefit of it. I had to stop by to make a video call. I chose this spot just randomly. I am so happy that I did. I didn’t know what to get, and I looked around to see what other ppl have for themselves.There was one table right in front of the counter. Looks like it was a mother and daughter date. They had this pretty drink so I pointed that to the Barista. He said it was a matcha green tea, and I asked for the cold version of it. Maybe they could only do cold…who knows. I was like Matcha…urgh…not my thing, but just happened to say yes for it and he asked me if I want sugar in it. I asked for the one with no sugar. I….loved it. They have a really nice space on the back area where you are unbothered and left alone. The customer service is great. Thank you for creating such a beautiful place.

Fabulous breakfast spot, sandwiches and bagel were amazing, so is the matcha iced tea. We tried the mortadella sandwich and turkey-avocado sandwich, both were so delicious, they prepare fresh. Staff is very friendly and welcoming. Thank you
