    The restaurant has pictures of food on a banner on their gate that they no longer serve. They have pictures of food on yelp that they no longer serve. I felt tricked when I came and everything I had wanted to try was no longer on the menu. Even the things on the menu they had run out of so I ended up choosing a few things to taste. What we tried was yummy, but the entire experience was weird and overpriced since I had come for specific things. When I was sitting there other guests came to order and were told the same thing. Strange they wouldn't change their menu and signs to reflect their actual food. But the decor was cute and kitschy and there were a few parking spots which can be gold in busy ktown. I would say if you don't care what the food or drinks are but want a cute tea place, come here.

    What a super cute place with a very friendly owner. And, free parking! But also, metered street parking is pretty easy to find too. They have a special bread and it is so delicious. I also ordered one of the Korean tea sets, which was really nice.

    Matcha berry latte with vanilla bean cream top
    Mikaela C.

    Absolutely obsessed with this little spot. I grabbed a berry matcha latte with a homemade cream top, and it was honestly one of the best drinks I've had in a long time. The berry mix is made in-house with organic berries, and you can taste how fresh it is. The cream top, made with real vanilla beans, just put it over the edge. The owners were so kind, and the man who brought out my drink was so proud of his creation that it made me love the place even more. It's not the easiest place to find, but that almost makes it better, it feels like a hidden treasure. The inside has such cozy, inviting vibes that next time I'm definitely staying to soak it all in instead of taking it to go.

    Really good tea, I think they were shocked to see me there. Lots of older ladies chatting, lowkey place.

    I stopped by for takeout and instantly wished I had the time to sit down in this lovely café. The hojicha cream iced latte is absolutely delicious, the cream top is one of the best I've had in a long time and the ambience is so cute. It's cozy and eclectic, and the owner who helped me was incredibly kind and very clearly loved what he was doing. I would love to come back and spend a little bit more time in this place. Worth the slightly higher price point!

    Fresh baked organic bread
    Rizza D.

    Walked in this cafe and it's so cozy. The owner welcomed me with a big smile and so friendly. I checked out what they have and I found cute socks and of course I bought the fresh bread. It was delicious and healthy. Please try and check out this place they have different drinks as well. I will come back and hang out at this cafe.

    MY FAVORITE KOREAN CAFE/BAKERY! This cute little cafe is my favorite place to go to with my daughter went we are in the mood for a cozy fun little date. There is a big selection of coffee and tea, and their baked goods are sooo delicious and come with the yummiest butter. It can get busy but I've never waited long. Also, it's so welcoming and I've spent many hours just talking and lingering here. The owners and his son are so nice! Parking is limited but there are a few spots in the back lot.

    Great place to hang out. Nice decoration with old victorian European ambiance. It's a converted old house. They still live on second floor of the house. Ring camera all over the place. Keep greeting passer by. Service was fast and super friendly. The Korean couple are friendly and entertain you with the history and merchandise. About Spanish painter on the wall and her merchandise they sell. Most of their food is good and tasty. Their award winning bread is nice and fluffy. The strawberry cake is ok. Maybe cause we got the frozen one. The Italian Gelato is super delicious and yummy. Same with shaved ice. Interesting and tasty. The wild organic ciabatta bread is super good. Free sample from the owner. Only the strawberry cake is just ok. Maybe cause it was felt frozen/cold. Will come back for sure.

    Cheesecake, chamomile tea, and misugaru drink!
    Tiffany H.

    I loved this café. The furniture, decorations, and plating were very vintage inspired. I visited here on a Friday night near 9 PM. It was quite empty with only a few parties. I can imagine this place to be a nice café to study at or to grab tea and catch up with a friend. The service was also amazing. The one worker there, I think maybe the owner, was very friendly, energetic, and helpful when we were ordering. My friend and I got the misugaru drink, cheesecake, and chamomile hot tea. I will definitely be back.

    Macaron 6 Piece Gift Set ($15): Salted Caramel, Red Velvet, Earl Grey, Pistachio, Chocolate, Rose
    Angelica L.

    Overall: 4.7/5 (macarons only) Macaron 6 Piece Gift Set ($15): We go this as a gift from our cousin. The macarons came in a cute box and were packaged nicely. She got us the following 6 flavors: rose, red velvet, pistachio, salted caramel, chocolate, earl grey. We were so impressed that you can taste each flavor without them being too subtle or overpowering, specifically for the rose, pistachio, chocolate, & earl grey. The red velvet & salted caramel had more of a subtle flavor than the other 4 so I wouldn't get them again. My favorite in order was Rose, Earl Grey, Pistachio, & Chocolate. The macaron shell was also the perfect texture, making it really smooth to bite into. I wouldn't have stumbled into this tea shop on my own so I'm so glad that my cousin got this gift set for us to try :)

    This place feels like home. It's been a long time since I first came here, and I have so many great memories. The drinks, music, design, and the owners all contribute to an amazing atmosphere. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a high-quality and memorable experience!

    berry slice cake & cappuccino truffle
    Michelle Y.

    This is the CUTEST COZIEST MF CAFES I'VE BEEN TOO AND I AM OBSESSED!!!! I literally want to move to LA just so I can come here It's literally a friggin house, and the owners (who I think is this adorable older Korean couple) transformed the downstairs entire into a cafe. You can see how each section was originally its own room, and the tables and seats are all just classical wooden house furniture. Being at this cafe made me so nostalgic for when I used to tag along when my mom went to go visit a friend to drink coffee/tea and cake. We ordered a cake and truffle, the man who took our order was soooo sweet and the desserts came out quickly. They were so good, the berry cake was just sweet enough and would most definitely have any Asian moms' approval of "not too sweet" while the cappuccino truffle boasted deep flavors of coffee and chocolate.

    Amazing atmosphere and amazing host! Super welcoming and super nice! European vibe with Korean touch and inspired tea

    Where do u park?

    We have parking spaces (for up to 4 cars) in the front lot where small patio space is located and a larger lot (for up to 12 cars) is located behind the building. You can access the back lot through the side alley. Street parking meters are another… 

    Is this place good for studying? Is there a healthy amount of power outlets? Is it too noisy?

    Not a good place for studying. A place to chat and come with friends for a cute tea 🐥

About 5 years ago we moved to San Fernando Valley, but I am still visiting this place at least twice / 3 times a month. I wish I could come more.

Mochi Twist ($5)-- Nice and dense mochi texture? I guess it's hard to describe but it's not hollow and airy like a typical donut. There's some chew to it. And it's not too sweet! Blueberry Roti ($4)-- Flaky crumble on top and blueberry jam?? YES YESSSS. I liked this so much I'd definitely go back for it. Blueberry jam is so underrated and it's rare to find it in a pastry! Makes for a good sweet lil treat. Hot latte ($5)-- Perfect!! No complaints. Not too milky, not too light. Good ratio. I was actually kind of worried ordering a latte because not every place does it right but it's good here! Iced blueberry matcha ($6?)-- I see lots of good things about this drink on here but ooooooof... it missed the mark and by a LOOOT too. It was green sweet cereal milk. Where's the matcha? Where's the blueberry? It was so confusing because I see the green and I know I ordered matcha... but it's just sweet milk! And it's not even blueberry flavored milk. Did they forget the blueberry jam? Syrup? Whatever they use? Because it just tastes like the milk after a bowl of Frosted Flakes or something like that. Very sad, very disappointing. Ended up tossing after a couple sips. ANDDD for those matcha purists this is NOOOT the place for you! They have it pre mixed in a milk gallon. So we just saw green milk coming out of a gallon into this cup like yeppppp ok expectations immediately lowered. Anyways, hot latte is good and the 2 pastries I got were good! Steer clear of the matcha!!!

Personally, I don't like that style, I was hoping the original would change that for me! Long story short, I didn't like the Walnut Chocolate Chip. I personally just don't like that style still, so I'll chalk it up as a "me" problem. The cooked part was good. The Rocky Road was cooked through. It was an amazing baked good with good flavor and add-ins. Between the roasted almond slices and fudgey chocolate chips, I was enjoying it immensely. A highlight of my day for sure.

It's relatively busy but the line moved swiftly. The Larchmont store was pretty lively with the crowded and colorful wall deco! It's pretty fun to see that they came up with more seasonal items lately and most of them nailed it well when they came to cookies. Previously the lemon one and the most recent was the Raspberry Pistachio which I was impressed by as I just fancied sweet and refreshing combo of white chocolate and raspberry. The pistachio added more texture to it for sure. Same as any Levain cookies, best enjoyed warm and fresh out of oven. The Cookie Milk Latte was actually the main reason bringing me here, yet I was bit let down by it as I was expecting more malty cookie flavor in the drink. I felt it tasted not much different to regular cream top latte with some cookie crumbles in it.

The pastries were fantastic, gooey, flaky, fresh, authentic and house made. I would love to visit again if I was in LA. I got a variety I split with my brother and enjoyed them. Our favs were probably the Passionfruit or the Elderflower Rubarb. If you have never had fresh, non industrial/store-bought croissants these are going to rock your world. The prices and freshness are fantastic. I expected to pay more than what we did and these are reasonably priced. There isn't really a lot of parking so be prepared to park elsewhere.

Ham and Gruyere Croissant: Fluffy, crispy, airy croissant. Kind of a basic ham and cheese but the croissant makes it a worthy breakfast choice. Iced Honey Latte: Regular iced coffee, nothing special.

There is outdoor seating area which is very cute but quite small. The inside itself is also small with no seating, so plan accordingly when considering to dine there vs take to go. Service: Polite/typical. Was fast for how busy it was. Overall a good breakfast choice, especially considering the variety of pastry options!

Downside is that I first tried the fish panini years ago and it was a bit better then, but it's still good currently. Other pastries I've tried here have been pretty good. They had some various buns with mochi inside, and those were great. Another one of my fave is their mentaiko salt bun. Great flavor, though I wish they would stuff the thing with more mentaiko. Their curry breads are good too. I took my daughter here and she got one with cute emoji drawn on, and she said the custard filling and the bread was tasty as well. I've tried some drinks here and they were alright. A friend was into their banana matcha when they have that in stock. Pretty simple layout here. Get in line and see the goods, then you reach the cashier and order and pay.

I got a sausage bbang, a chocopie, and a dalgona latte. The sausage bbang was soggy on the bottom and honestly tasted like it was from the day before. The chocopie barely had any filling, just a thin layer of marshmallow and jam. It honestly felt like they used most of the marshmallow for their Dubai choco cookie because it's probably more profitable, instead of properly filling the chocopie. If that's the case, it's better not to sell it at all than serve something like that. The dalgona latte was also disappointing. With ice, the drink only filled to the bottom third line of the cup marking. Clearly, they skimped on the milk. There was also a weird moment when I paid. My total was $15.25 and I paid cash, but I was given $4.75 in change. When I said it should be $5, she seemed confused and asked what I meant. I told her I literally gave you a quarter right now, and she questioned it before eventually giving me the correct change. I'll give her the benefit of the doubt and assume it was a mistake. I understand times are hard, but charging more for products that clearly had corners cut doesn't sit right with me. It just comes across like there's no integrity. Clearly the quality and portions are going downhill. I wasn't even planning on writing this review. I was going to stay quiet, but the chocopie really ticked me off. I'm not going to pay for food that skims on ingredients and shortchanges customers by charging more for less, so this will be my last visit.
