Reviews for Matcha Cafe Maiko in Charlotte, NC
I love the intense flavor of the ice cream!!! I tried matcha and hojicha and they are both wonderful. But personally I don?t... like the maiko special - the texture of cereal, red bean etc doesn?t match well Read more
Once you walk in you will smell the heavenly waffle cone. The soft serve is as delicious as it is pretty to look at. Fast and... friendly service. Place has a lovely decor! Read more
Really good, lots of options. Waffle cones made fresh there. Matcha and I've twist cone was good. Sunday evening so they ran out... of a few things but still had a nice time and didn't have a huge sugar rush at the end. Try it, you will not be disappointed. Read more
INTRO: A unique Asian cafe that specializes in matcha desserts, Matcha Cafe Maiko is prepared to bring some matcha into your... life. I can guarantee that this special experience will make you say "I love matcha so matcha!" after finishing your firstdessert. I normally get their matcha soft serve, but you also can't go wrong with their other desserts and drinks on theirmenu. DESSERT 1: Golden Shogun ($9.50) - This is the ultimate flex move. A soft-serve flavor of your choice (matcha, hojicha,seasonal) topped off with a 24k edible gold sheet in a waffle cone will make you feel like a millionaire. The matcha flavor ispresent, but it's definitely not one of the strongest I've tasted. I've made stronger matcha milkshakes at home. WORTH IT? YES,it's worth it for the experience and whenever you're in town (Overall 7/10) Read more
Really good Matcha, try the early grey lavender latte and the Ube latte both really yummy and the aesthetic here is really nice.
I ordered the Matcha special and shared with my husband. Cost about 8 dollars. The presentation of the dessert is really good... and the ice cream at the top tasted amazing. Very strong matcha taste. However the things at the bottom, like the jelly andcereal just tasted ok. I would just order the ice cream next time. The decoration and atmosphere of the shop is really good tho! Read more
This cafe is a great spot for matcha lovers! I got the matcha soft serve swirl and it was great. The waffle cone paired well... with the ice cream. They have other items if you don't like matcha as well Staff was very nice and accomodating. Would recommendif you're in the area and looking for a good desert spot! Read more
Three stars because I love most things about this place (friendly service, clean space, quality ingredients) BUT I got the... avocado toast today and I was shocked & horrified that it was really sugary!!! They add ?cream cheese? which is actually whippedand sweetened to be just like whipped cream! Or maybe they accidentally used whipped cream lol. It was not a nice combo and Iwould highly recommend ordering the toast with no cream!!! I would really consider revising this menu item? Absolutely no oneorders an avocado toast wanting a dessert. Otherwise a lovely place! Read more
