"Another finding in Ktown, with tricky parking given it is located right by the main road. The place has more dim lighting that I thought but still quite accommodating space for working with plenty of seats and some power outlets. I arrived mid afternoon and they only had very few pastries left on the showcase. Initially, I was eyeing their taiyaki, which was disappointingly not available as the machine was down. I ended up getting the chocolate custard muffin, which wasn't my favorite not to say it's bad but just not wow. As per the barista's recommendation, I tried the Spanish latte, which was interestingly served with not only cinnamon powder, but also cinnamon stick inside the cup. I loved that I could feel the cinnamon hint but just at the right extent that it was not overpowering the entire coffee taste. It was a bit too sweet vs my preference, but overall I was still enjoying it. I wouldn't say this would be my favorite place to go, but surely could be an option when being around the area."

"I have been here for years as a local. It is the most reliable coffee shop in the area in my opinions. The coffee is always delicious, the atmosphere is perfect for working, and the vibe is relaxing. Occasionally, you can hang and chat here but I feel it is more compatible for getting work done. I have never heard loud music in Sharp. Highly recommend!"

"Sharp Specialty Coffee is an absolute gem nestled in the heart of Los Angeles. I ordered a latte during my visit, and I could instantly tell the difference that sets this specialty café apart from the rest. The rich, smooth flavor and expert crafting of the drink were evident with every sip. The cozy, quiet ambiance offers the perfect backdrop for studying or working, complemented by industrial-themed decor that gives it a unique touch. I loved that the space is dog-friendly, welcoming both two and four-legged visitors with open arms. Although parking can be a bit tricky, the exceptional quality of their beverages and the warm, friendly service make Sharp Specialty Coffee a must-visit spot for anyone passionate about coffee."

"Sharp is a classic Ktown cafe neighbored by many Ktown cafes. I got an iced latte, and their coffee is chocolatey and smoky but a little watery. I can’t tell if that’s the nature of the espresso or if they use 2% milk. The barista was very friendly and let me take my time to go through the menu, although in hindsight I probably should’ve tried the cold brew because they seem to be more well-known for that. They’re also known for being extremely studyable, although the non-picnic tables are stupid high compared to the chairs and it’s a little too dark. They have lots of outlets and tables, though."

"Stayed here to study with some friends, and it was a great place to study and socialize over some pastries and great tasting coffee. It was also very clean and organized 👌 And had charging ports ! Which is rare for cafes in LA. Very reliable. Personally had a Carmael Spice Iced Lattee"
