    We live quite a distance from this cafe, but if we get a chance we will drive all the way here for delicious Taiwanese food. I love how the owner remembers us over more than 10 years. :). She is so sweet and remembers her customers. We especially love the popcorn chicken with veggies, egg, and rice. Boba is delicious too! There is a little gift shop there with things that are handmade. There are lots of tables in there.

    The woman who works here is such a warm and kind person. She completely made my day. Its a cute little cafe...Would never expect such a great place to be here. We ordered a Turkey Croissant Sandwich, Vietnamese Coffee, Banana Milk Tea and a Lavender Earl Gray Milk Tea. Every single one was great for an even better price. Boba is a good texture too! I have been trying to find a Vietnamese coffee that reminds me of the one I would have with my sister years ago and this one hit that nostalgic point I was hoping for. Everything is great. Many other places charge twice as much for a less appealing drink so this is a hidden gem and now my new favorite spot.

    The shop is super cute and the service was quick and friendly! I enjoyed my milk tea with boba, it wasn't super sweet and had the best boba I've had in a while. It was chewy and the texture wasn't sticky! Definitely a must try if you're in the area.

    We stumbled upon 118 Cafe on a Thursday evening and thought we'd give it a try. They honored the Yelp check in special (free regular drink with purchase of 2 large drinks). Service: very friendly staff. They realized the menu was overcoming us, so the they were patient and gave good descriptions of the items on the menu. Venue: very cozy and inviting. It has a warm feel of a coffee shop in a book store, but with the sofas and decorations, it felt like we were in someone's living room. The parking is plentiful and it's quiet enough if you want to do some major studying. Food/drink: drinks were good. They all had good flavor, but the boba was not as soft as I'd like it. The food came out warm and was served in a very simple way, nothing fancy like you'd see in a restaurant. The menu is very large, so we would like to return to order other items. This is a nice place for a small dinner and spending time to study, read, or play board games. If you want a full meal, look for a restaurant. But this is a great place in Simi.
