This place is so shady! As soon as you walk in your greeted by the smell of cigarette smoke, even though there is a no smoking sign posted. The drinks are incredibly overpriced. $ 6 for a lemonade and $ 5 for an iced coffee, which both were not that great taste wise. The menu is not current and there are a shady group of men sitting in one of the corner tables. The only convenient thing about this place is that’s it’s close to the laundromat but, even so, I will not be going back in there.

Give it a full star rating because the girl who works the front is beautiful and she gave me free ICE. She was nice and courteous.

Sigh. 6 dollars for avocado smoothie 5 dollars for iced coffee… I know times are hard but at least make your drink worth the money. Typical Vietnamese coffee shop with out the hootchie mamas.

What the heck did I walk into? You walk in and greeted by a staredown of aged asian men that make you feel unwanted. Waitress approached us at a friendly attitude, the second positive thing about this place. I asked, if they carried a menu and she responded, that it’s written on a whiteboard towards the side of the café. Come on, really? At least mark some proffessional ambience to the place. Especially one that doesn’t reek of smoking when it CLEARLY shows 5 small signs of NOSMOKING on each wall of the café. I think there is more to this business than what meets the eye because for one reason it’s full of old asian men so, don’t think it’s your typical hip hangout spot. Second reason, why would a waitress wear a skimpy little skirt in 60 degree weather? Yeah, I’m thinking sex trafficking site for young girls. I could be wrong but my eyes don’t fool me. One star for the coffee only because it tasted decent but strong. As soon as, I got my coffee, I paid and jammed out of that place like lightning. Also, the tip jar was half full which even made more suspicion back to my idea on the sex trafficking. The local tea bar(i.e. Honey badger) doesn’t even have tips like the one this business has here and they don’t get that much customers like Honey Badger. Hm. crazy! They don’t have a business grade posted at the restaurant and including a sign stating they don’t accept major credit cards or a CASHONLY sign. How are people going to know that after they purchased? For sure, I would report this business to health department for unaccurate business attire.

I walked in and the waitress gave me iced tea for free(1 Star). I ordered a black coffee for $ 5.00. It was delicious!(1 Star). They only accept cash(–1 Star). The waitress was sweet, and when she saw my laptop, immediately gave me the wifi information(1 Star). Best part: Hospitality Worst part: This place is a hub for old Vietnamese men and wanna-be gangsters; and it reeked of stale cigarettes(nothing like the aromatic smell at a cigar shop).

Perhaps their«open» hours need to be changed. I work nearby and dropped by, thinking this was a Vietnamese café. When I walked in, the place reeked of smoke. I looked around and there was a table of four men, smoking. They looked at me questioningly. Another man was sitting at a table, drinking iced coffee, watching TV. I stood at the counter for a few minutes, quite uncomfortable. After no one acknowledged me for a few minutes(except for looking at me oddly), I walked out. It’s really surprising to see people smoking indoors at a public place nowadays. However, I guess that’s the kind of place this is… Except it’s supposedly cooler and sexier at night.

Walked into this place to see if it matched the Unilocal reviews or not. Thought it was going to be comparable to the cafes in Garden Grove. Errr! Wrong! Only guys with caps hanging out in a room. No girl servers. Drinks were okay. Nothing happening here. Good place to hang out if your a thug or wannabe gangster.

No. Granted perhaps, I am not in the demographic Café Cau Vong caters to, but I don’t see any reason to come here for anything. Well, perhaps I «see» one reason: the ladies are gorgeous and sweet. But other than that, it’s a big room with a very, very limited drink menu. Coffee with milk is $ 5, and of course you have to tip the lovely ladies! So $ 6 for less than 12 oz in a styrofoam cup. It was pretty good, but nothing can prompt me to return.

tip: come here for nba playoff games. Great little café with sports inside. People were smoking inside even though no smoking signs are put up. Other cafes in the area don’t have as much tv ‘s with sports. Has games and computers, free wifi. Laundry is nearby if you need a place to sit down and wait. waitresses are all very friendly.

Came here tonight after passing this place multiple times with a couple of friends and decided to check it out. Place is really chill and good service from a waitress who’s working by herself. Ordered a ca phe sua da and it was really strong. Just the way I like my coffee. A+ to that. Only giving this place a 4 stars because there were no girls.

Not sure what the heck the last guy was talking about, but the girls took my order the second I walked in the door. And they gave me my avocado shake within the next minute! That’s awesome service. It was hot and I needed that drink fast! Not only that but they kept refilling my iced tea and always asked if I needed anything else. There’s plenty of space in this place so you never have to worry about bumping into other people’s chairs when walking through and what not. There’s also an abundance of game machines(which I’m highly addicted to). Plenty of flat screen TVs around for you sports fans(although I’m not much of a sports person myself). And the music is mixed so you’re not stuck listening to one type of genre the whole time you’re there(the owner’s also really nice and will change the music if you have a request). So if you’re looking for a place with a laid back environment to chill at, I’d highly recommend coming here.

The girls here are pretty hot and attentive. They do a good job of refilling and being friendly. Be warned though, this one girl(not gonna name names to protect the innocent) likes talking smack so if you end up talking to this girl, do not get offended by her rude comments. i think she’s just being friendly in a mean sort of way. Good drinks, lots of tvs and girls — i think i’m coming back here tomorrow.

Advertisements of «beautiful young waitresses» hold mostly true. There are a few machines here, which makes it more addictive than the OG cafes in GG, but good GAWD this place is ghetto inside. I mean, I know showing up in FOB sandals and wife beater makes you feel like you’re in Hanoi, but… it’d be nice to bring in a bit of class to S. El Monte. And dudes, there were no chicks wearing butterfly wings. Have no clue how the ca phe /shakes taste since the hostess didn’t bother to visit/take order. Still, support your local tittay café. err. I mean, coffee café.
