"A lovely place to spend your Sunday morning with a cup of high-quality coffee. ☕️ Interiors design is modern and spacious with plenty of sunlight coming through large windows. Perfect place to journal or meet with your friends before or after heading to a workout."

"Espresso Cielo was the perfect little coffee stop after our beach day, and I’m already thinking about when we can go back. We walked over from the pier and loved the cozy, relaxed vibe the moment we walked in. It feels like a true neighborhood spot – warm, inviting, and not overly “chain” or corporate. I ordered a matcha latte and it was so good – smooth, not too sweet, and you could actually taste the matcha instead of it being buried in sugar or milk. It was one of those drinks you slow down to enjoy instead of just chugging on the go. We also got a cortado and loved it so much that after we finished, he immediately wanted to go back for round two and ordered a cappuccino. That alone says a lot. The espresso tasted rich and balanced, not bitter or burnt, and the milk was textured really well. The staff was kind and efficient, and even though they were busy, the vibe stayed calm and comfortable. It’s the kind of place you could grab a quick drink or sit for a while and people-watch. Overall, Espresso Cielo is exactly what you want in a local coffee shop: great drinks, warm atmosphere, and the kind of quality that makes you wish it was in your own neighborhood."

"Had a lovely morning at Espresso Cielo! ☕️ The house-made cinnamon latte is a must-try—super smooth. The avocado toast with smoked salmon had amazing flavor, though the toast itself was a little on the hard side. Definitely coming back for the caffeine fix!"

"What a great place to enjoy the morning. The coffee's we had (Spanish latte and Vanilla latte) were so flavorful and smooth, which complimented the tasty egg croissiant with light salad. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Can't wait to visit Santa Monica again and enjoy this hidden jem !!"

"I had the cardamom latte in the morning & came back for a strawberry matcha later in the day and they were both top tier. The matcha was the best I've had in awhile!! 🍓🍵 food was okay, donut was bomb, service is standard. Definitely recommend!"
