Very cool take on Horchata and many unique drinks to enjoy. We ordered the Horchata Frappe and the Iced Green Tea Horchata, both turned out very good and enjoyable to drink. Also the Churro Sundae was very different and so delicious. Overall fun cool decor inside with Frida Kahlo everywhere which we love and amazing drinks! Also dont forget to check out their merchandise and shop online, really cool take stuff they have.

People make a big hype out of this place. I would never come back here. I got their Oaxacan horchata and it tasted watered down and their churros where stale and hard definitely not made fresh

The horchata was good, everything else tasted eh and they have exessisive packaging. We got a little twinkie sized pastry and some churros and left with a big box and 3 bags.. not sure why you need a whole bag just for spoons and napkins

It was mine and my husbands first time trying their items. We walked in and the employee said they were closed and to go through the drive thru. We proceeded and the menu in the drive thru only listed two sizes which confused us, and so we ordered their large drinks unknowingly. They said it was $9 each!? What the heck, that is more than Starbucks.Anyhow, we got our size reduced which the manager was really nice about.HOWEVER,My order (Horchata frappe w/o coffee) tasted like grounded up sand and it was very chalky! My husbands drink (Churro frappe) tasted like mediocre unflavored vanilla shake with cinnamon.I cannot believe it.. We are disappointed and that is why, today, we are going to Tierra Mia.

The Café de Olla is perfectly done. The location is clean and very inviting. The owners are vested in their products...great job!

It is as expected.The only thing is that the lines are huge.Was not expecting that at all.What helped it go faster was the fact that a person came out and took your order.

I been wanted to come here for the longest time and finally I got the chance to visit and it did not disappoint at all. Highly recommend the horchata latte. If you got the change to visit give them a try!

Review №25

No take outs but drive through was open. Long line and wait was almost an hour, but totally worth it. Oaxacan Horchata, iced green tea Horchata and traditional churros. Churros alone was worth it. Perfect crunch and not too hard nor sweet, soft inside. Worth it!

It was my first and only time coming here.My family and I were in the drive thru for 30 plus minutes . Two cars before the order windowA worker comes out saying they are closed and not taking anymore orders. That’s some shady stuff. Why wouldn’t they put a sign that no orders after 10 so that customer won’t waste their time waiting is line .It’s called common courtesy!!!

This is the new location for Horchateria. I drove over an hour to check this place out (freaked out when I headed over the old location, thank God it was only 5 min away) and was sadly disappointed as the experience was meh. Just like their employees. The guy that took our order was not super friendly or outgoing. Some feedback I would like to give this place is to have some photos of what to expect (like on the menus). There is a variety of items on the menu but don’t know what to expect. There are restrooms locating in the facility. The place is massive and the their wasn’t a lot of people on a Saturday evening, so it felt awkward. They had an extra room with what seemed like vendors and music. No signs to enter and browse once again very awkward. The staff could’ve been friendlier. The prices were okay... bought two drinks a small keychain concha, a sugar cookie, air freshener and pin for around $32. The place is massive and just very empty... kind of a let down. The moment you walk in you see a sign to head to your left and follow through a straight path... felt like I was in a maze... Needless to say would I drive over an hour again? No, I’ll pass and try something new. Ps. Horchateria you need to update your address in google maps... don’t give people a mini heart attack when they head over to the previous location to see black metal bars and a closed sign)...

Oaxaca horchata is really good as well as the cajeta frappe. Highly recomended place to sit an enjoy a cup of coffee

Review №35

Amazing place! I am so glad I tried this. The drinks were amazing and the price was fair for the quality of the drinks. I will say the cookies are too cute to eat. And honestly they werent up to par with the quality of the drinks. The cookies are also a bit pricey and not worth it for the flavor. Use your $5 for another drink instead (:

Employees were friendly. And it had a really cute vibe to it. Only complaint is the super long lines and there’s not enough room inside for people to sit down and enjoy their food.

We were driving back from LA to Irvine and accidentally found this place. I wish it was closer to Irvine! Churros are AMAZING! Coffee was pretty good too and their little shop has a bunch of cool stuff to buy.

Review №41

Churros and coffee are good but there should be a sign saying that dine in is close at 9 instead of 10. I walked in at 9:10 and a rude employee yelled saying “dine in area is close go through the drive thru” they should at least take orders to go even if you’re not dining in. The drive thru is open until 10 (if you’re in the car waiting and it’s almost 10 you might not get a chance to order because they will just tell you that they are close once 10 hits) so please Horchateria make it clear here and in the store what is open and what is closed.

There is alwayyyyyyyyys a line. BUT WORTH THE WAIT. Try something new here and you will only like it here. They have MASTERED specialty items that are now getting more popular in different states. Horchata and coffee is fantastic. The best Ive had, and I like to try it when its available. Concha ice cream sandwich was perfect! Check out their cute products for sale, support local artist and buy a one of a kind product. Trust me, I get compliments everywhere I go on my concha keychain.

I cant believe I havent left a review for this place yet as Ive been coming here (and their previous locale) for some years now, but after today and the experience we had at the drive thru I thought that I should. They got me my large order pretty fast and made sure we had everything we needed before we pulled away. And of course the drinks were absolutely delicious, as were the pastries. This place has always been good to me and thats why Ive kept coming here year after year.

The desserts are inspired by the Latino culture! You have books, art, stickers, key chains, cups etc that reflect Latinos culture. The desserts are delicious, creative & well-crafted! It is a small location so, it doesnt really work for big groups. Other than that, awesome!

Review №55

I was excited to try this place but I was a bit disappointed 😞. The frappé I order didnt have the consistency of a frappé. It was more like milk. It was ok.

Ed
Review №56

Cute shop but if your main dessert is churros I expect good churros.. The churros didnt have enough cinnamon sugar on them they werent hot even tho it says they fry them per order. Also the texture wasnt soft and fluffy inside they were kind of dry. I got the mazapan frappe and I could taste the mazapan. But, it got watery and I couldnt taste the coffee in it.

Review №57

I really want to give this place a one star but I’m going to be generous because this isn’t usually happen but I waited 35 minutes in the drive-through for one drink they need to move a lot faster I see them talking inside all the time and they have all this food and drinks behind them and don’t have my drink ready. This is a drive-through not a park and wait for half an hour they need to park people whose orders are big And just got faster in general so disappointed and bothered tonight did not end well.

Review №59

Disappointed that they dont have brewed coffee or drip coffee however you would call it ready to go I mean 9 am isnt so early and it would be good to have all coffee available and ready to go by the time the place opens, sometimes people like myself have no time to wait for the person to start making the batch of coffee this is the only place that has told me I have to wait until the make it most places are ready to go unless they run out and have to make more thats a different story

Online orders unavailable & staff informed us that phone in orders were not being taken. We decided to make the 30min drive to the store, and upon arrival were told the 8 orders would take an additional 30 minutes.Great product & staff. But management needs to address customer service issue. Best churro in the area, the entire family was disappointed.

Wow what a great fine. A better coffee shop than any big name spot. Horchata frappes, churros with horchata ice cream, concha ice cream sandwiches, and all the regular coffee options and Mexican coffee options.

Review №68

Horchateria Rio Luna serves up the greatest Cafe de Olla. Lightly sweetened with a hint of cinnamon. Pair that with some fresh Churros makes for greatness. Not a huge place, does have seating inside, but gets busy quick. Plenty of parking outside as it is located in a strip mall. Id give this place 10 stars if I could.

I can not get over how amazing Horchateria was! The freshly made Churros were to die for and the Horchata latte was delicous!So definitely a 10000/10! If you live in the Los Angeles area, go go gooooo! There will most likely be a line, but theres a reason why! Its worth the wait!

Do you want to be reminded of how much you love Mexico and everything Mexican? Do you want to stuff your face with some amazing pastry ice cream combinations? Do you want to have a Horchata Frapuchino? Of course you do!!! How some one has not put such an amazing combination together before is beyond me. Tons of art and Mexican nostalgia. Great ambiance, super friendly people, great service are just some of the things awaiting you at this local family owned business. Its not a franchise, but if it becomes one its literally going to take over the coffee/Arthouse/ generally having a great time and hanging out business.Do yourself a favor and go try it. It borders on a life changing experience.

Review №72

Food and drink were great. I think that maybe they could be a little more organized and work a little more efficiently. We waited for over an hour in the drive thru and the cashier was standing around watching the other employees scramble to get the orders together. They got me my churros and I waited another 15 min for my latte. The entire 15 minutes the cashier was standing and watching. The other employees were getting other orders together and one of them finally remembered that I was waiting on my drink.

I found Horchateria Rio Luna on Facebook. There was a video that had gone viral about the place, and the next time my family visited the LA area, I thought, I have got to try this place. And so we did. Apparently, we got lucky visiting in the middle of the day during a weekday because there was no line. We got a churro sundae, an horchata, and a concha ice cream sandwich. The concha ice cream sandwich was my FAVE - so DELISH! & the shopping, way cute stuff - very cutesy, boutique Mexican. The place is in a shopping center, so plenty of parking. If youre in the area, go check this place out. ;)

Review №76

I came here because I head of it through Instagram so why not try something new! It was okay, the concha is good 😜 I waited like 20-30 mins in line to order on a Saturday so it does get packed. I ordered the concha with ice cream and an horchata iced coffee (I didnt really like it) my boyfriend got the horchata frappe and it was better than the coffee. Anyways, just give it a try it if you havent yet, maybe youll like it or love it but for me its not my omg this is my new to go place. P.S. My boyfriend said que le encanto 😉👍🏽

Delicious and awesome place! I had waited almost 2 years to finally make a visit to California and come here. Great menu and awesome variety! I ordered the small concha ice cream sandwich along with the Horchata Oaxaca, which had pieces of cantaloupe, walnuts, and served with pitaya sorbet. Nice space and feels open. Aside from their food menu, they carry many products from local and Latinx artists...which is a very nice touch. From Latinx food themed pillows and housewares, to mugs, childrens books, and so much more. It really is a place for Latinx community to appreciate and feel represented, as well as for other people of different heritages to appreciate what it means to be Latinx.

This place is amazing! I went twice while visiting and if you can swing an early morning, thats really the best time. We got there when the doors opened and had the place to ourselves.

Vegan churros are every vegans dream! The server recommended the strawberry and guava drizzles and they did not disappoint!

The place is very unique along with the flavors and desserts. I was excited to try it out. And I can say that it meet my expectations. The churro sundae & the concha ice cream sandwich were very good desserts. And the frapuccinos are delicious. I dont know about any other place where you can get a horchata frappe, mazapan frappe & cajeta frappe. I love the decorations.

Luckily we were driving through this part of LA and made a stop. So worth it!! I loved the horchata iced coffee, but I am glad my friend and I split a churro sundae with horchata ice cream. INCREDIBLE. My friend (who is Mexican) had been craving churros, and these were the best kind - fluffy but still crunchy, and not greasy. Everything had great flavor and the folks working there were so friendly.
