Absolute moe!! ° The maids were super attentive and made our party feel right at home. Some preconceived knowledge on maid cafes would definitely be helpful, and I recommend customers to really lean into the performance to ensure a fun experience! The interior was very cleanly and well decorated, with unique tableware, offering an adorably fun atmosphere! The food was accurate to menu and tasted very yummy. They offer pre-made cheki for you to buy, featuring custom designs made by your maid truly. I'll come home as soon as I can... whenever I visit LA again, that is. ´ ³ `） read more

I was really disappointed with my experience at this maid café, especially because I was there to celebrate my birthday. We had a reservation, but it took about an hour just for someone to take our order. To make things worse, they were out of almost everything we tried to order, but we weren't told until after we had already waited. What made the experience even more frustrating was seeing people who came in after us without reservations get their food before we did. We were left waiting with no food or drinks, and then, unbelievably, we were given the check before we had received anything at all. For a birthday celebration, this was extremely disappointing. I understand that places can get busy, but the lack of communication and the way our reservation was handled made the entire experience frustrating and not worth the money. I was hoping for a fun and memorable birthday, but unfortunately, this experience left a very bad impression. read more

Came here for my birthday back at the end of May with a group of 5 around 7pm. It was such a fun experience, and I would love to go back again in the future. We all got the combo with the food, drink, dessert and the cheki with our chosen maid. I did not have much expectations for the food, but the food was actually surprisingly good!! The maid were very attentive, and our maid, Moon, drew the cutest characters for us on the omelettes and drinks! read more

Definitely one of those places to try for the immersive experience and not the food. Some background on maid cafes would have been helpful as well, especially with the chants / various interactions they have you do with them and more. We went for an early-ish lunch, so the options were much more limited compared to dinner. One of our friends has gone for dinner before, and that was much livelier with a much MUCH better menu option. I did take this into consideration as otherwise lunch review for a Sunday would be closer to 3 stars. From outside the cafe to inside, everything was really cute. They have a mascot, which is shown outside and in as well. Enter, and there's a wall of merch you can see and buy. There was another door in that room that takes you to the main dining area, but before it opens, they tell you a lil chant with movements to do. Pretty cool! We were then seated and given our menus. There are combinations which included a photo with a maid. We ended up getting 2 food combos (meal, drink, photo), a dessert combo (dessert, drink, photo), and a drink combo (drink, photo) to all share. The menu had a lot of options, but the food wasn't actually available (darn, was looking forward to some maid drawn omu-rice!), as it was lunch and that was a separate menu. Some items from that were unavailable, so we were super limited with what we could order re food. We ended up trying the following - Miso Salmon - lol, not great. The sides / veggies were better IMO, but they were really small portions. Chicken Teriyaki - the other 3 thought it was pretty good, and I thought it was just mid. Lack of flavor, but chicken texture was decent. Matcha Parfait Dessert Thingy - forgot the actual name of it, but it was pretty! Our maid drew on this which made it special. Taste-wise was fine. Various Drinks - I got a cold brew with tiramisu foam, and that was quite enjoyable. She drew a dog on the foam. Cute! A friend got the coffee with sea salt foam and she requested a fish be drawn. The best LOL. Another got their magic lemonade which was pretty cool! The mixing and such was fun to watch. My daughter got the oreo oat milk drink and she requested a cat to be drawn. Our maid was really nice and explained things extremely well. For the photos, she helped us with standard poses and we all left with a lil polaroid with our experience. Many of the clientele when we were there were solo male, which was what we saw in Tokyo as well. Some groups too. There were a lot of similarities with this maid cafe and the ones we visited in Tokyo, and some differences do include quality of the frequent visitor card (actual plastic card in Tokyo versus paper card here) and the photo came in a frame booklet thingy in Tokyo compared to just the photo here. Would come back for dinner to check that out though! read more

Such a fun experience regardless. Though I heard dinner time is more fun since there will be more "Maids". Came here for lunch and our Maid was so sweet and kind. She explained everything and even gave out food recommendations. The hospitality here is great. The ambiance is clean, bright and exceptionally friendly. Because the Maids take such good care of you, this can be a solo date. You won't feel alone. You can order drinks, food and desserts. Some of them even come in packages so you can basically get a whole combo. Some of the drinks are interactive where you get to cast a fun "spell". For extra pricing, you can request for a fun silly dance and even take Polaroid photos that you can take home for a keepsake. Overall, very fun and entertaining meal. I got the tuna melt and it was heavenly! Only thing I didn't care for was the veggies as they were welted since it was a hot sandwich. Other than that, very good flavors! read more

Asayoru Maid Cafe is a themed café experience that goes beyond a typical restaurant visit. We walked into a space that leans heavily into the maid café concept with a cute, playful atmosphere where the staff stay in character and create an interactive experience for guests. The interior is colorful and inviting, with themed decorations and small touches that reinforce the fantasy of stepping into a different world. It feels less like a place you visit just for a meal and more like a destination where the environment and performances are a big part of the appeal. The main draw is the experience itself. The maids are welcoming and energetic, and the interactions are what make the visit memorable. We had the chance to take themed photos, including Polaroid-style pictures that the staff decorated on the spot as part of the experience, adding a personal touch that you do not get at a standard café. The energy of the room shifts depending on the time of visit, with daytime feeling more relaxed and evenings offering a livelier, more performance-driven atmosphere. The special events and stage performances add another layer to the visit, making it feel more like an entertainment venue than a simple dining stop. The food is more of a supporting part of the visit rather than the main reason to come. The menu includes Japanese-style comfort food, desserts, and drinks, with items like omurice, chicken katsu curry, and parfaits that fit the playful theme. The omurice, in particular, is often presented with a cute design drawn in ketchup, reinforcing the interactive nature of the meal. While the food does not aim to compete with dedicated Japanese restaurants, it gives you something to enjoy while taking in the performances and interactions, and the portion sizes are reasonable for the café format. Service is where Asayoru really stands out. The staff put genuine effort into making guests feel comfortable, especially for first-time visitors who may not know what to expect from a maid café. They guide you through the menu, explain the interactive elements, and maintain the energy of the room without making it feel forced. The commitment to the theme makes the experience feel unique and memorable rather than just another themed restaurant. Asayoru Maid Cafe is worth visiting if you are looking for something different from a normal dining experience. It is best approached as an entertainment café where the atmosphere, staff interactions, and themed details are just as important as the food. Whether you go with friends or by yourself, it offers a fun introduction to maid café culture and leaves you with the sense of having experienced something that feels more like an outing than a meal. read more

You come here for the experience, not the food so make sure you lean into the vibes--otherwise, it's just not that fun. The cups and decor is minimal but cute. I liked the plates and the star cups, though the star cups are very impractical to drink out of without a straw. Honestly, the food is much too overpriced for the quality. The katsu rice was dry and tasted too instant for me. The maid service leaves much to be desired as you really just say their magic spell before you eat to make sure it is delicious. It was cute but that was the most interactive experience you get. You can take chekis (photo) with the maid which are pretty reasonably priced, but they can only accommodate (when we asked) a party of 5 in one large photo. read more

Asayoru is my favorite socal maid cafe and I've been to a few similarly themed maid pop ups and permanent cafes both in the LA area and in Japan and Asayoru definitely lives up to service you receive abroad. Staffing, food and outfits are where Asayoru excels. For a kitschy themed café the food is pretty decent and the parfaits are delicious. The maids are kind and entertaining, vibes are good. The only thing I would hope they improve on is decor, which is a little plain and the chairs are uncomfortable. The desk like tables, lack of sunlight and the bright overhead lighting makes you feel like you're in the waiting room of urgent care. Parking is free and there's a large lot connected to the building. read more

Asayoru Maid Cafe - Themed Cafes Near Me - Monterey Park, California

Wrote one of my most thoughtful and long reviews of Asayoru Maid Cafe, one in which I felt I addressed the decor and ambiance of the establishment, its food, and most importantly the gimmick service at play here, one of "maids" that serve food and take pictures with their patron "masters." I tried to imbue my review with a sociological commentary of the restaurant and the activity I witnessed and Yelp removed the review despite it getting many likes!?! Personally, I think someone from the management, owners, waitresses and/or devoted customers complained to get Yelp to take it down, so here is my leaner and less specific review in its place... Let it be known that an actual cosplay loving and anime devotee brought me here and that, while Asayoru was intended for people like her, the majority of patrons at lunch were men of a certain ADULT age and they were regular patrons fawning over their favorite maid-waitresses serving them expensive but subpar food, the quality of which can be found at most any 7-11 for a third of the price. (** The maid waitresses themselves apologized for the food in advance and explained the menu was being retooled so we should positively come again soon to experience the new one!) We had a traditional Japanese egg sandwich that was anything but proper and right as the ones I've had both in Japan and in restaurants about LA use the characteristically soft style milk bread and this was served in a stiff ciabatta roll that seemed old. It also lacked the characteristic flavors and seasoning of Japanese egg sandos. Our tropical drinks were fine enough, but nothing to merit their price either and the kitty kat sundae my date had was tasty enough but less so than anything procured at Baskin Robbins 31 Flavors Ice Cream Parlors. It was just cuter. Really what one comes to Asayoru for is the show, for lack of a better term. The performance by the nicely costumed and enthusiastic maids that take your orders, make you engage in chanting with them, and ultimately try to sell you "chekis," really just Polaroids with them that they mark up after they've been developed. It seems like it was designed for a younger audience, certainly not me, a man in his 50s, but the whole experience made me feel taken for the fool somewhat... and I really felt conflicted about a man in his early 30s I met at the restaurant who boasted that it was his 115 th time there, what with the thousands and thousands of dollars he must have spent on photos, merchandise, exclusive memberships they push, and the like. Asayoru played out in a manner that invoked Chippendale's or Hooters, sans nudity of course, and it really just was not my cup of tea. read more

I've gone here several times and usually had a great experience, so overall I would recommend going. It is pricey, but the food is pretty good compared to other maid cafes I've been to, and you are paying for the experience of it. However, I would not recommend going to the morning service time. The website made it sound like it would be more like a tea service, but it was really just a limited menu without anything particularly exciting. It also seemed more short staffed. But it's usually pretty good so I still recommend the evening hours if you're interested. read more

Come for the Maids, not for the food. Every Maid served to perfection and made our experience so fun. We ordered the deluxe combo which came with drink, entree and dessert and a discount on the pics. The entree food was luke warm, but the desserts and drinks were good. Overall a super fun experience. read more

I had recently come to Asayoru Maid Cafe. One of my boyfriend's friend wanted to try this place. All of us live near the area and this is the first time I had come here. It's a very cute maid cafe and it reminds me of the anime called Kaichou Maid Sama. Servers were nice and explained the menu. The food came out in a timely fashion. My favorite dish would have to be the pop corn chicken (I know it's called something else but I can't remember the name of it). It was very crispy and tender. The matcha parfait was my favorite dessert as well. Definitely got to experience something new. read more

All the maids are cute, the ambiance is nice, we got the service treatment we wanted. The food and drink were fair for a maid cafe, but be wary, there are specific times for specific things!!

I love Asayoru Maid Cafe! This is my second time visiting, but my first time at their new home on N Atlantic Blvd. It was a little confusing finding this place at first because Google Maps kept directing me to their old location. However, I received an email from them to redirect us. I attended the Azure Lane collab event. The cafe was decorated so nicely and I loved the bunny costumes. I honestly don't play Azur Lane, but I'm a bunny girl for life. The themed food looked great and the taste was alright. My pasta tasted a bit bland. Although, it was fun having the maids decorate my plate. I also added a picture of my friend's burger because our maid was so funny when he asked her to draw a meme. I love the drinks, but I really just come here for the entertainment. If you want your food to be extra tasty then just make sure to cast the magical spell, "moe moe kyuuuuun"!!! The maids are very hospitable and fun. (Shoutout to Latte and Riri!) The head maid was an excellent hostess for the event. I really enjoyed the dances and interactive aspect. I went home with a lot of Azur Lane goodies too. They had a lot of items to purchase as well. I'm looking forward to coming back home. (´`Ʃƪ) read more

HAPPY 2000th REVIEW! In honor of this milestone, I have to give an updated review on MY FAV BUSINESS & 2023 SERVIES BEST FRONT OF HOUSE STAFF WINNER, ASAYORU MAID CAFÉ! Just in time too because they moved to their new physical location in MPK. As I'm writing this they'll still be in soft opening (hehe, my 1st review for them was also during this phase), but they'll be having their grand opening soon! You can see from driving past how absolutely CUTE everything from their window & door displays facing the street featuring their café mascots. Everything is themed so very nicely (I'm a huge sucker for this) from the water cups, the interior windows, the amazing new stage that they have, & even the restrooms! I gotta say, their restroom is cutest in all of SGV! They have more hours & days open now. You can have your dose of moe in the morning or at night! They have a morning, "Asa", shift where it's more chill & relaxing & the maids wear their elegant long maid uniforms. There is an hour break & then they open for their evening/night "Yoru" shift where the maids don their iconic fits. Events, performances, etc. generally occur during this time period! From the start you are welcomed in through their magical door via casting a spell & the maids welcome you home. There is counter seating & table seating available. If it's your first time there, there is a discount! Just make sure to let the maids know! You can also ask for the maid menu to see which maids are on shift that day, what their special performances are, & to help you choose who to take your cheki (commemorative, hand decorated Polaroid photo) with. They also have one shot cheki where it's only the maid if you're not one for photos as well. When you're ready to leave, the maids will say their "see you soon's" to you as well. From their menu, you can choose a wide array of entrée, appetizer, drinks, & dessert dishes, but it's highly recommended to get a combo since it comes with a cheki. Make sure to order something with the little Kon star next to it for some maid magic where a maid can hand draw some chocolate or ketchup art on your dish or you can help cast a super special spell on your food! Definitely makes the experience much more fun. I've tried a good chunk of what's available on their menu thus far, but since it's soft opening, it's only a matter of time before we'll get even more! I also have to say that the food is a big improvement on when they had to share a venue space. Portions are MUCH bigger, & everything is quite tasty. Deluxe combos come with a side of salad or soup (the miso soup is pretty good), the curry now comes with an extra little bowl with more curry (with potato & carrots), the pieces of karaage are quite large, the parfaits now have coconut whipped cream & the Matcha Meido & Mango Sorbet ones come with a cute little laminated decoration you can take with you as well. Alright, now if you are not a normie visiting for the first time or a casual, or maybe you became hooked after your 1st visit, & want to dive more into the world of maid cafes, you MUST open a FREE membership with them. This is all done digitally & with each visit you can work your way to upgraded membership levels that come with new added rewards & benefits! NEXT, you HAVE to go to one of their events. Either make a reservation for their non-ticketed event day or make sure to book your ticket for an event that requires one. For ticketed events, there's usually a special themed drink & dessert. These ticketed events also come with goodies such as a stamp sticker for your Asayoru passport (if you collect 4 you get one for free!), a button, signed bromide, & much more. Events have special performances, maids may have different outfits/accessories, & there's usually some event limited merchandise too. Follow them on social media to get these updates as some of the events & goods sell out quite quickly! NOW, I hate that I have to put this disclaimer but due to some cringe individuals, I gotta. I ALWAYS speak highly & share how amazing Asayoru is to everyone, & especially during my con panels to the community, but I always put in a caveat of making sure to make a reservation & to be wary that they do get busy some days. On those busier days, there will be a wait. Either use that time to catch up & hang out with your party or idk go play a mobage or something. The maids are always doing their best & if you're malding about that, then maybe you're just a big baby!! Asayoru Maid Café is truly a passion project & manifestation of the love, effort, & dreams of all the maids & staff involved. From the merch, artwork, designs, small details that go into the decor, everything is done by the maids if not credited to anyone else. That is insane! Immensely admirable & inspiring to see their journey from the start, present, & into the future! Absolute MUST for any anime fan & even if you aren't, you gotta try it at least once! read more

I've been to Asayoru Maid Cafe a couple of times, and I really enjoy the ambiance and welcoming atmosphere. It can be a little intimidating to visit a maid cafe at first since there's a specific process for ordering and receiving food and services, but the maids are very sweet and take the time to explain everything to newcomers. Parking is easy--there's free parking available in the plaza's parking structure. The hours are straightforward: Asa (morning) runs from 11am-3pm, which feels like a cozy lunchtime vibe, and Yoru (night) runs from 5pm-9pm, more like a dinner hangout. Each time slot has its own unique vibe and menu, but the same cute and thoughtful service. Personally, I like coming in the morning because it feels more like a traditional cafe, complete with cute background music. I can even bring my laptop to work or a notebook to journal. The maids are super friendly--even when I don't know what to say, they're always kind and welcoming. At night you can see the maids sing and dance, and sometimes they even have amazing collabs! The food is typical cafe entrees, but I recently had their caprese sandwich and it was delicious! Of course, the main highlight is really the service and ambiance. I'd highly recommend visiting--whether you're going solo or with a group of friends. Moe, moe, kyun~! read more

Me and bf talked about dining at a maid cafe for shits and giggles. Bf is a normie and I am a weeb. We've heard about Asayoru being at Barcadia initially before relocating in MPK at the Atlantic Time Square plaza. We didn't really know what to expect since it was our first time ever giving this place a go. The experience is superrrrr kawaii! Staff are always in character and really fun to interact with. They draw cute little things on your food and tailor it to your experience. Sae, Poyo, and Latte were there for the day. Ended up getting a cheki with Latte since we interacted with her the most. While the food didn't wow me, the overall experience and hospitality is super fun. I got a mango green tea with star jellies and surprisingly it wasn't too sweet. Latte gave us some lore about Kon and their maid mascot Milky. Everything is so brightly lit and nicely decorated! There's additional things you can order like games or requesting for a performance. There were even people studying and have their favs they interact with the most. You can defo tell who the regs are lol. This is a really unique experience to try and sgv is blessed to have a gem like Asayoru. They really do know their demographic and their niche. I'm returning since I haven't tried their desserts yet, but my bigger weeb sister is coming with me. Moe moe kyun :3 read more

Asayoru Maid Cafe - Kon's meteor conquest - hamburg steak - Themed Cafes Near Me - Monterey Park, California

Came here on a Thursday night with my girlfriend (who loves Japanese culture) , and was greeted by a very nice maid! Then we were taken inside, which seemed like a hybrid of a cafe/school table setting. Since me and my girlfriend were hungry, we decided to get the food combo, which comes with a drink, entree, soup or salad, and a Polaroid photo with a maid. I got the karage, and honestly, it was just ok. I have had way better karage elsewhere. Nothing special about the miso soup too, but it was good on a cold day (hard to screw up miso soup though). I think if I were to come back, I would just get their dessert combo after having a meal elsewhere. However, I would say the main attraction here is the service from the maids, and probably the best service I have ever gotten. They were very friendly to me and my girlfriend, and they were very interactive. Their energy was very bubbly for sure. I also loved the Polaroids that they took with me and my girlfriend. Overall, I think the maid cafe was a fun experience. Their food is very average, but the maid's service was phenomenal. So that comes out to be a 4 star experience for me. read more

The food was fine, only small bites were available at our visit (probably understaffed at the time) so theres not to much to judge on and my group enjoyed our drinks and dessert, they even draw little designs on the dessert! The service here was really good, we went for our friends birthday and they gave us a little scoop of icecream. Our maid Saiki was really fun and nice! The performances and services were a little pricy but thats to be expected for a themed based cafe where the focus is on the maids. Only issue that set us off is that we were a group of teenage girls + our little gay friend and the whole cafe was filled with men with questionable hairlines and of a certain well personality for most of our visit. It was clear we were not the regular audience and it made us feel a little uneasy towards later in the night. Some reviews claimed that the maids didnt meaningfully interact with them but maybe when reading those reviews consider who these people might be, because theres a no touching maids rule for a reason... read more

I hope this doesn't sound like a rebuttal to another review but I just want to praise this cafe and how well it has been operated. I think they moved to the current permanent location at Atlantic Times Square plaza in December 2024, that's when I had my first visit but they were at a previous location before in Arcadia. They recently had their official grand opening and the Monterey Park city council and many San Gabriel Valley elected officials were also there to celebrate this momentous occasion. They are truly becoming a pillar of the community especially with their idol group MoeAge. Before Asayoru, I've only been to one other maid cafe, so I was not very familiar with the customs and magic of these type of cafes. I always thought you have to go to Akihabara district in Tokyo, Japan to experience this. But Asayoru really did a fantastic job of bringing the magic and authentic experience here. Of course they offer their own unique twist and an American flavor, but it only adds to their charm. There was a patron that told me that she visited one of the most well known maid cafe in Akihabara and Asayoru actually has better food. So far, I have only positive experiences and everyone that comes here are wonderful people as well. I really admire their loyalty and dedication to supporting this cafe and all the maids. So it is a bit sad to see disparaging comments about other patrons and to insult the people that work here. You can generalize and compare this to other types of establishments (I have nothing against those establishments and I find them enjoyable too) but they are a totally different type of experience. The maids here truly believe in the fantasy and magic they provide and they put a lot of work in their craft. If you have complaints on their food and service, we all welcome your feedback on this forum. As much as I love this establishment, I too think they have room for improvement. But we shouldn't judge others that come here. You post pictures of the cafe on Yelp so you're obviously curious and drawn to what they offer. There are people that go to every Taylor Swift concert and there are passholders that visit Disneyland everyday, it brings them joy, so why are you belittling them? Asayoru has build a positive relationship not just with their fans. If you attend their monthly Hyperstellar show and Milkyway Marketplace, you can see they have a constructive and amazing collaboration with other performers and the community. That is something I truly respect, because they are not just here to promote themselves but others who share their passion. read more

I stopped by this Cafe tonight while waiting to meet up with a couple friends before a movie. We had seen some decent reviews and figured, hey, why not check it out? I got there a little earlier than them and just walked in. Nothing flashy -- I was dressed normal and just curious about the place. There were a few people already at the front, talking to the staff, so I waited. The girl at the desk asked if I had a reservation, which is fair, but the vibe was off. It wasn't welcoming. It felt more like "Why are you here?" than "Hi, welcome in!" As soon as she asked, the group in front of me turned to look, and it honestly felt like I had walked into the wrong room or something. I asked if they had coffee, and the answer was basically: Yes, but only if you dine in. Again, fair enough, but the energy was weird -- like I didn't belong there. That was enough for me. I stepped outside, called my friends, and told them we should go somewhere else. Maybe others have had better experiences, but this just didn't feel like a place that actually wants new customers walking in off the street. read more
