Sua
About
In CA, Sua is noted for its premium matcha offerings that go beyond the ordinary. Many note that the matcha cold foam and strawberry matcha are standouts among the selection. Guests point out that the Honey Matcha Latte is one of the best, rich and smooth with a hint of honey sweetness. While some find the prices steep, particularly for an extra shot, the quality just doesn't always meet expectations. Several flag the need to improve the matcha latte, which currently brings down an otherwise excellent experience. The vibe at Sua is modern and inspired by bold Chinese flavors and fresh California sourcing, making it a unique spot in Larchmont. However, the water temperature for tea can be too hot, and some find organic food prices overpriced for small portions. Overall, Sua aims to bring culture, beauty, and ease to your day with its curated matcha options and grab-and-go meals, though there's room for improvement in consistency and value for money.
