Airoma Cafe
8315 Garden Grove Blvd, Garden Grove, CA
Crema's Take
“Airoma Cafe is a matcha destination that's earned its reputation through consistency and creativity, with the Matcha Einspanner emerging as a standout that balances silky richness with bright, grassy notes. The team here genuinely engages with customers to guide them toward unexpected combinations like the pandan-matcha pairing, where nutty vanilla sweetness plays beautifully against the matcha's edge. Just note that customization requests like ice adjustments should be communicated clearly at the counter to ensure they're executed as intended.”

The matcha here is consistent. I always ask for less ice and they literally give you a cup of ice! Please actually do the adjustment if you’re going to allow customer requests.
This place is hands down one of the best places for Matcha. I was recommended this place by so many friends and right they were! I only ordered the Einspanner matcha and the Ube Matcha. The Einspanner was the best I have ever had--with a thorough, robust matcha flavor. It is obvious that the matcha is pure and high quality. The crème that tops the Einspanner is also finely crafted--sweet, and fluffy in texture. When stirred the drink makes a great, almost pleasantly addictive mixture. The Ube was also a good drink, especially since the Ube also tasted very authentic and un-compromised. However, I would definitely recommend the Einspanner matcha as its flavor and composition is fairly unique to Airoma and no where else. The interior was modern, well kept, and organized. Though the place was slightly busy when we came, the cafe was quite spacious and--despite the high number of people present--did not feel crowded. The workers are very efficient and quickly take orders and put out drinks. Even with a long line upon my arrival, I moved quickly through the line and I was in and out in less than 8 minutes.
Delicious matcha and great customer service! When I got up to the counter I still hadn't decided on my order so I asked the worker for a recommendation between the matcha pandan and einspanner. She let me know the einspanner was the less sweet of the two, so I went with the einspanner. The einspanner was delicious, super creamy, but a touch too sweet for my taste. They have some tables, chairs, and outlets but if recommend arriving early if you want a table. I arrived just before noon on a Saturday and every table was already taken
was not expecting this pandan-matcha alliance to actually work; the pandan brings a nutty-vanilla sweetness to the matcha's bright grassy edge in a silky blend, but the matcha does kinda take over after the first couple sips. and side note, my friend's ube matcha looks hella yuck but the tastes were spot-on across the board 🥳
Just visited Airoma’s second store in Garden Grove and it’s a matcha lover’s dream come true. More room to vibe, same iconic flavor. My go-to? Matcha Einspanner & Double Matcha—still undefeated. I’ve traveled to Japan many times, and this matcha is the closest I’ve found to what I had there. Smooth, deep, and absolutely worth the hype. • Spacious, minimalist, and aesthetic—finally a place where your drink and outfit both get their moment. • Same signature blends—matcha still hits like a love letter to your taste buds. • Double the matcha, double the joy—Einspanner’s creamy top layer + earthy depth = perfection.
