Somo T
6760 Aloma Ave, Winter Park, FL
Crema's Take
“Somo T is a warmly run Vietnamese café where the owner genuinely knows his regulars by name and creates a real sense of community alongside expertly crafted specialty drinks like their beloved Uber Coconut Vietnamese coffee. The kitchen matches the care behind the counter with fresh, reasonably priced banh mi and other light Vietnamese fare that pairs beautifully with their house-roasted beans, making it an ideal spot to linger with friends or settle in for an unhurried morning.”

What a wonderful little coffe shop. The owner is notable, he is smart and inquisitive. He cares to know his customers and he is constantly greeting regulars by name as they walk in. He asks them questions that show he talks to them and cares about their story. The Vietnamese sourced beans as espresso was new for me. The owner was able to explain why he pulled the shots the way he did and why he was targeting a specific flavor profile, it allowed more appreciation of the experience. I also had the standard Banh mi / Vietnamese sandwich. It was delightfully simple. The flavors and ingredients all played nice together and nothing was overpowering. I highly recommend giving Somo T a try.
I got the Uber Coconut Vietnamese coffee and it was really good and not too overly sweet. The flavors mixed well together. I also called the Lemon Grass Chicken Banh Mi, and that was insanely good with the sriracha.
I love this new Vietnamese Cafe in Winter Park! Everything was fresh and delicious, reasonably priced. Yummy Banh Mi! The owners are friendly and it's great to learn that the coffee beans are roasted fresh daily, tasted great and totally satisfied our cravings! I actually like it better at So Mo T than the Vietnamese coffee in Vietnam
First time visiting and the staff were super kind! I’ve had cá phê from a bunch of different Viet cafes and restaurants but I enjoyed it the most here! Reading the other reviews, it’s apparent that not many people know what to expect when ordering Vietnamese Coffee, expecting it would taste like espresso not knowing it’s brewed and prepared differently. When I told the barista that this is my first time visiting they offered to dilute my drink if I didn’t enjoy it since it seems that not many people tolerate the strong taste of coffee but the cá phê was delicious!! In the photo, I ordered the Ube Coconut Iced Coffee and would highly recommend. If you are the type who has never had Vietnamese coffee or is not a huge coffee-drinker in general, I would recommend the White Coffee variant of the drink. They also have milk teas and other non-coffee menu items.
May 10, 2025 I recently visited the service, which is always wonderful. However, the prices for the coffees are not worth the quality of the beverages. This is the second time I have visited, and the coffee is essentially ice with a small amount of coffee and a lot of foam, which is quite disappointing. On the other hand, the taro tea is delicious and plentiful, and the avocado ice cream is exquisite. The cream and bread are unfortunately awful. The bread is thick and has only a little cream, and it is not even warm. Despite these minor flaws, the place is charming. It is a great coffee shop next to where I get my nails done. When I come to get my nails done, I can stop by and get a coffee. The decorations are cute, the chairs are clean and comfortable, and the staff is friendly and pleasant. The drinks are amazing. We tried the tiramisu coffee and mango smoothie. The coffee was very smooth, sweet but not too sweet, and it had hints of chocolate and tiramisu, which was delightful. The mango smoothie was blended to perfection with a great mango flavor.
