Mj did great service, always a joy having her! Beru quick with the drinks. Great addition to the team.

The premier Ktown bar in Ktown! Stocked with just about anything. Korean and American food available made to order. Great wings and several kinds of pasta. I love the kimchee pasta. Bartenders here take care of you and the atmosphere is casual. They also have 6 screens showing all kinds of sports. Ask for Q the bartender. She is sweet and she will serve you whatever you ask with charm and dedicated service. Cafe Bleu in Ktown. (Not to be confused with Bleu on Sawtelle!) read more

Cafe Bleu - What is that?? - Sports Bars Near Me - Los Angeles, California

The problematic bartender is gone. Everyone here is still chill and the new bartenders are all nice.

Every single time i come in MJ already knows what I want to drink! Amazing bartender! and they also have an awesome happy hour!

Great atmosphere and music - perfect for stopping by for a drink every now and then. They have a wide variety of drinks to choose from, which makes it even better. Bartender MJ makes this place extra special with her friendly and professional vibe, and she always makes you feel welcome. read more

Great staff and plenty of seating options. I've had nothing but good experiences here.

Love this place! Great food, great drinks, great staff (especially Cindy!!!) Where else can you find a bar with happy hour that goes until 9? And I challenge you to find a better $10 tri-tip sandwich. HH beers are 5 bucks. Skewers are 3-4. Bathrooms have Japanese toilets. There are lots of TVs and comfortable places to sit. What are you waiting for? Get your butt over to Bleu ASAP! read more

Cafe Bleu is my favorite bar in KTown (and that's not just because I live in walking distance). I was worried that the place had closed down because they were closed Memorial Day weekend. Seems like they were closed for renovations but not gone! Thank god. The place generally has chill vibes. Not to say you won't get some good loud music, but it's a place to sit and enjoy some drinks and chill. It is rarely ever crowded, which is my favorite. I've never had trouble getting a seat. Despite being in a very crowded and popular area, the entrance tends blend into the space, which I love. It makes the place feel like a hidden gem despite it not being hidden at all. Every time I take friends, they're surprised the place exists. "I've been to this area countless times and never noticed it there." Everyone should go to Cafe Bleu - but not all at once. I still want an easy seat. read more

I had the BEST time here!! Met some friends for a drink and the servers were amazing, and the crowd was so chill! The food is bomb and so are the drinks! Couldn't recommend this place enough! read more

Reliable Ktown standard: good food and the friendliest, fun staff in the neighborhood. Relaxed and chill ambiance. Go!

Cute bar with food options in ktown. I've been outside of it half a dozen times while waiting in line for sun nong dan. Parking is terrible but you already knew that. This is a sports bar with a lot of plush booths set up, a complete 180 from what I was expecting (a loud nightclub with servers ignoring everyone... it's actually really low key in here)-- we were seated straight away at a big booth and were helped by multiple people during our short visit. Prices for typical cocktails weren't listed on the menu, but a Moscow mule was $12 plus a $2 surcharge for substituting the well vodka (waitress informed us of the extra cost) and it was delicious. The "small" soju cocktail drink was ~16 or so dollars and was also pretty big, way more than I expected and could serve 2 (or 3 light drinkers). The fries smelled so good but unfortunately we passed on getting food this time, but looking forward to trying at a later date. read more

Wow. I thought this place was just for drinks but damn they have some good food too. Menu had a decent selection too but I went with the BLT and the wings. Let me tell you its probably one of the best BLTs and wings Ive ever had in LA. Like no joke. You have to try it. read more

KTOWN staple. great food, great bartenders, great ambience for whatever vibe ur looking for.

Bafe Bleu should be a protected landmark. Back during the prohibition this was the first Asian speakeasy that served bootleg rice wine and dried sea rat and squid. It was. It is. And will be here for the neighborhood, all the long time regulars and the new faces that walk in on their way to becoming regulars. Cheers Ray! Thanks again read more

It's a nice bar with its own type of atmosphere. For anyone that becomes a local or visits Ktown often this is what I would consider a staple. read more

Finding the entrance was a bit confusing and could be considered a speakeasy if you weren't trying to look for the bar. The front door doesn't look like a restaurant at all which is cool when you realize what it is. I came on a Friday night around 10:30-11pm, and was seated right then and there. You could tell it was the bar you go to after you hit all the other bars and finish off the night because it was pretty empty. Later on more people started coming in, so I would recommend coming around 12 and after. The tables are mostly sofas and meant to be comfortable for larger parties. They were playing 90's rap & the vibe was cool. The staff was very chill, almost too relaxed considering they forgot to bring us a dish and a waitress was hitting a vape in the corner nonetheless still nice and friendly. We ordered the pineapple soju cocktail which was perfect for 2 people. I think the peach cocktail would've been better tho! Then we got the Bleu chicken wings which are a must have, and I'd rank the kimchi fried rice last. The total was under $60, not the best but not the worst either. I'd come back for the atmosphere, the cocktails, and wings with a bigger party later at night. read more

If you don't know Cafe Bleu, you don't know Ktown LA. THE CHEERS Bar of Ktown where everybody knows your name, and they're always glad you came. Great drinks, great company, and some of the best memories of my life. Pedro and Yewon are the best. James hyung is the OG. I LOVE CAFE BLEU FOREVER. read more

Korean BBQ Hack: Put your name in for the hour long wait at Quarters or Kang Ho Dong Baekjeong, and hop across the street to Cafe Bleu for their happy hour from 5-9pm daily (even weekends!!!). We've done it a couple of times and it's never let us down. Jameson and Johnny walker black we're on happy hour for I think around $7 and that night Altos tequila was on sale too. They have a beautiful bar and the atmosphere has a sleek lounge vibe. The drinks came pretty slow from the bar and there was a minor confusion with our tab, but the staff was great and our server was amazing. She apologized for how long everything took, quickly cleared up questions about our tab, and allowed us to order a last round right after happy hour because the first round took a while. She was truly the MVP that night. When other places in Korea town are super crowded, this place normally has a seat for you. Possibly because it's through an unassuming door in the corner of their lot. I personally love it, cause who in their right mind likes a crowded bar packed like sardines!? If you validate your ticket at Quarters, you can valet your car in their lot for $5, but if you try to park in the Cafe Bleu lot, it's normally chaos and super crowded. As far as additional parking, you can always find parking on the street or at one of the parking structures, but that can be expensive and tedious. read more

Tucked in the corner and although unassuming from the outside, you'll find a dark and well-dressed environment inside. Welcome to Cafe Bleu. On my most recent visit, we ordered the happy hour bottle of Johnnie Walker Black along with two sliders. The price was very reasonable for the 750 ml. The two beef sliders were most like hamburgers and the patties were tasty and tender. The buns were toasty and the lettuce was fresh. I would definitely order these sliders again. You'll find the traditional bar seating and plenty of lounge seating arrangements. On some nights, looks like they have live music. Service was very attentive and friendly, especially the two bartenders who were working that Wednesday night. read more

Been coming here for few years now. Excellent food. Excellent services. Reasonable price for all the drinks.

Good place, been going there since 1991. Great vibe! Cons: The management told me not to come back. It was my fault I thought this dude was Chris Davis from last night. This is what two hours of sleep will do with heavy drinking during dinner / bar at other establishments the work I do taking care of my mom w dementia and daughter had me compromised w stress. The management never ask me what happened he only believes the other party. I've only talk to the guy did not swear or acted inappropriate ly. Well wrong Chris Davis looks just like him with same build and long beard. The guy left swearing at me for some reason wanting me to pay for his bill and I said no just wanted to sit on the sofa as I was extremely tired. I thank the Lord and the manager as I need to quit drinking and smoking. Thanks Will for baring me at bleu. You will never see me going to this establishment again. Its been a great 33 years at Cafe bleu. Your action with unfairness gave me strength and courage to quit bad habits. I need to focus more on my family and be the man as God has intended us to be and follow his word in lieu of reality that we humans had made. God's creation is Good we are the *uck ups. Again Thanks Will for kicking me out of the establishment. Too much Testosterone atmosphere anywaze. I'm done and I feel good in lieu of being angry or dismay. James the owner always greeted me with mutual respect. No more drinking for me. Again Thanks bleu! read more

This place was overpriced, food was under seasoned, the service was mid, vibe was ehh. Dried squid for $25? I'll pass. The flavors within the dishes were unbalanced, some flavors didn't work with each other. Some dishes flavors were either over powering or under. I will definitely not be returning and do not recommend this place to people who wants a decent meal. read more

My favorite place in Ktown, LA. My second home. Its the "Cheers" Bar of Ktown! Extensive selection, GOOD FOOD (The Tacos and Burgers), chill loungey vibe, tons of screens to watch sports, friendly bartenders, shout out to Pedro and the staff, and great people! I've always had the best time at Bleu. read more

Cafe Bleu da ba Dee daba da. Cash only at certain hours. Environment: this spot is open late and great for being drunk. The entrance is on the corner of the popular plaza in Korea Town. You will be greeted by a low lit atmosphere and vibes. The lighting is LED based and there is plenty of space. Bathrooms are to the left, dining areas to the right Food: we ordered the seafood soup. Probably the most zesty and tastiest soup I've had. It literally rates like the ocean. It's pricey but split amongst 6 it's worth it. We also ordered a lot of soju. Service: good service. Drink with the waiter he'll give you a bottle on the house! Very attentive and nice. You can also press a button for quick attention. Summary: it's blue and it's a rainbow. Nice spot to hangout and eat. I give it a 10 TASTES LIKE THE OCEAN out of 10. read more

This is a home away from home where everyone knows your name. Love their kogi tacos, garlic fries & heavy pour on drinks. Pedro is my favorite bartender there but the other girls take very good care of you too. I rotate between soju, wine and whisky. On fun frisky nights I'll drink tequila and usually there's a good crowd that will take shots with me there. I like the lighting inside, blue which keeps the atmosphere cool. Always chill vibes and I always come back after a long day! read more

What is it about Koreatown that always makes me want to have a cocktail? After having a great meal at Quarters, I wasn't ready yet to go home and face reality. I WANTED A DRINK. So, my bf and I headed over to Cafe Bleu. Located in one of the many strip malls of Koreatown, Cafe Bleu is definitely becoming of my quick faves for a cocktail when I am in the area. I have only been here on Tuesday nights. During this time the place is super mellow, playing nice music,with some sport playing on the big screen in the background. I'm positive that a Saturday night here is wild. We made it to Happy Hour, stayed for about an hour and enjoyed our drinks. PRO TIP (for me at least): Their house tequila is Casamigos (my fave) Esther, the bartender was great! Looking forward to another drink here soon. read more

Great food & services. They have the best bar food in K town. I've been coming here for over 15 years and always had fun drinking.

Cafe Bleu actually has a special place in my heart, as they feature some great underground and upcoming musicians/groups that perform wee into the night (check out their FB page for artist listings). This restaurant and lounge has been around since '01 and is a favorite among the locals. They offer an extensive drink menu as well as a dinner menu (food items that include garlic fries, nachos, tofu dumplings, wings, burgers, pastas, noodles, rice dishes, and soups). There is a lot that is shared by all the stores in the plaza, so it can be a little tight. Definitely a cool place to check out if you're in the K-town area :D +features underground/upcoming artists :D read more

I've been to Cafe Bleu twice now and Peter was working the bar both times. He's provided awesome service and is fun to talk to. Great conversations and he makes an awesome old fashion. I appreciate the deep culture the bar has and the patrons there seem to as well. Definitely a great spot to spending your bar night at! read more

Server/bartender was great and very attentive, but the prices on the menus are inaccurate and charge way more than listed.

Great customer service and drinks. Definitely recommend for a quick getaway to drink eat and watch some sports

Came here on a Friday night with 5 other friends and was not all that impressed. One friend got an order of garlic fries, or should I say a plate of crushed garlic with a side of fries. After finishing off two bottles of yogurt soju, two bottles of regular soju, and two bottles of beer, and two glasses of coke I could still taste the garlic in my mouth after we left. They were good fries nonetheless, and we still killed the place. Maybe the chef just has an unhealthy obsession about fending off vampires. Besides the food, the service was pretty spotty. My group oftentimes felt forgotten due to the fact that we were in the lounge area off to the side. At one point I had to get up and wave someone over to get more alcohol. The waitress that served us also forgot several of our orders and we had to remind her on multiple occasions what we ordered. To top it all of the music choice was very questionable. I will never understand a bar that plays music so loudly you have to scream to talk to someone who's a foot away from you. Are they trying to overcompensate for something? I'm not too picky about song choice, but whoever picked them here clearly did not know how to make a cohesive playlist. At one point it jumped from CL's Hello Bitches to Adele's Hello. Although I can see the word-to-word relation, it did not play out very well. Overall, this place was decent. I know I kinda complained a lot, but there wasn't especially bad that happened while we were here that made us want to not come again. Maybe we just came in on a weird day. Regardless, not a bad place to check out! read more
