Wait time too long at boiling crab?!? Order to go and come here to cafe home with Mama! Great customer service and she will make sure you and your party are being taken care of! For my dodger fans she also puts the games on for you!! read more

Such a cute cafe next to the Boiling Crab! My friend and I came upon this cafe after eating at the mandu restaurant next door. We were intrigued by their soju cocktails and thought we would give them a try. The cafe is extremely spacious and the lady who took our order was very friendly. My friend and I both got the mango soju cocktail (at the nice lady's recommendation!) and it was delicious. They also serve boba, coffee drinks, and other alcoholic beverages aside from cocktails. When we got our soju cocktails the lady brought us a bowl of popcorn to have with our drinks. While drinking our cocktails we noticed that a lot of Boiling Crab patrons would come in for a drink while they wait for their table to be ready, and the cafe also allows takeout patrons to eat their seafood boil at the cafe, which I thought was very nice of them! read more

Great service! The ladies were super attentive and kind. Great alternative when boiling crab isn't taking more tables. Vibe was chill to get food and drinks read more

Nice people but steer clear. If you order boiling crab to go they allow you to sit here but each person in your party needs to buy a drink. If there's 6 people, 6 drinks need to be bought. That's no problem until you realize the drinks are no less than $8 each. I bought one boba & 7 strawberry lemonades for $65 complete complete rip off. We got our food from next for 30 minutes later, 10 minutes into us eating we still hadn't had our drinks, I had to ask her several times. Not to mention they have popcorn , so i asked to purchase some for my daughter who was with me waiting on food , they told me the popcorn is only for wine or beer and they get it free. Another way for them to charge you even more. I even offered to pay $4-$5 for a tiny bowl so my daughter can eat while we waited on they kept insisting they don't sell the popcorn. read more

Good but expensive! My cousins and I were looking for something sweet after dinner next door and we noticed Cafe Home. It was completely empty when we showed up and the woman behind the counter looked so sweet. We ordered 2 boba drinks and a dole whip...our total was $18.50! To me, that seems a bit outrageous for 3 items! I guess that's why the menu doesn't include prices... The taro milk tea was good and dole whip was refreshing...but not worth $18.50! Yummy, but wouldn't go back. read more

Love this place. Customer service was above and beyond. Not sure about these other reviews complaining about service. Of course folks are going to be annoyed if you dont buy anything. read more

They have Dole Whip if you're in the mood. I think you can still eat Boiling Crab when there's an overflow and just get a drink. It's a nice mom-and-pop type of spot. I'll drop by for boba every now and then before or after dining om K-Town. read more

The lady that was working, was so rude. I will not be supporting anymore. I can see why it's empty inside.

This place gives off mom and pop shop vibes, I came in on a sunday while waiting for boiling crab next door and decided to get the matcha tea with boba, I also got a mango peach slush with boba and a hot tea for a total of 20$. The asian lady behind the counter took our order she was kind of stern but we disregarded her attitude since we really didn't care... we were just waiting there to kill time lol. However, what caught my attention was that EVERYONE was eating boiling crab inside the establishment. So we asked another lady working there, who was very nice and accommodating to everyone inside, if we were allowed to eat inside with outside food and she said yes! She quickly cleaned a table for us and rest assured we canceled our spot for boiling crab and ordered take out instead and ate inside this cute little cafe. Overall this was an unexpectedly nice experience because even when we were eating outside food, inside this establishment, the asian lady who seemed younger than the first lady behind the counter took really good care of us. She offered us more drinks to which we said yes and we ordered a Japanese beer which she recommended. She later brought us the check to our table for the beers and we paid 21$ plus 13$ tip. Im not so sure but i think they charge a difference if you eat / drink there or when you take it to go lol i don't want to spread rumors but that didn't matter to me because i was so satisfied with the service money was no issue. I will definitely come back to this place even if it just to study! read more

I was lured in by the promise of pineapple Dole whip! I am a huge fan of pineapple Dole whip from Disneyland. It was risky giving this one a try without a sample, but I decided to take that chance anyway. $5.95 I believe for a regular-sized Dole whip. I went straight to the back to order. It was a little awkward though standing around and waiting for my order. I felt like I was in the way of the people working and serving tables. They should have a designated area for to-go orders. After about a 5 minute wait, I got my Dole whip. It was pretty tasty! Not 100% Disneyland status, but some of the closest I have come to it. The size is a little deceiving--like most soft-serves, they swirl it so there ends up being a hole in the middle. But the size is still pretty large considering! I also think it's a good option if you don't want to wait that long for Boiling Crab. They will allow you to sit down and eat your Boiling Crab to-go order if each person in the party orders a drink. Not a bad deal. read more

Nobody was behind the counter when we came in. 3 people were in line. When the old Asian woman returned to the counter, I made my order. My friend walked up, saw that the ladies' room was blocked by trash bins and asked if she could wash her hands. The woman said no. I told her to use the men's room which is what I did. The old woman told her she couldn't use it and not to go in there. When my friend left, I asked the old woman why she couldn't use the men's room. She replied, "She's not a customer." I said, "She IS a customer. She's going to buy something." She said, "No. She has to buy something first, then she can use the restroom." Well, she didn't communicate that! I used the men's room bc the woman wasn't there BEFORE I bought anything. I told my friend what the woman said as she walked up to the counter, but she didn't use the restroom. Amount of Boba was chintzy for $6.50. My friend got several slices of Dole pineapple and mainly whipped cream for over $6. Not worth it. Five of us who bought food from her establishment sat outside at the table and talked. Later the old woman came out and told us we had to move because she had to do something with the table and that we had ordered to go. We got the message and left. The cafe was empty inside. This was about 2:30pm on a Sat. We left feeling unwelcomed and vowed to not patronize this establishment again. Prices were expensive, establishment was out of a lot of things on the menu, the old Asian woman was rude and unfriendly. BTW, we were all Asian woman. read more

Three of us were waiting to be seated at The Boiling Crab (TBC) but one person is handicapped and had a crutch with her. In absence of seating, she was the only one to sit on green planter boarder and the lady came outside and smiled, wrote "Do Not Sit" on both sides. I felt she could have just told us and we would have gotten off. I stayed outside while the remaining two people went inside trying to purchase one drink so the handicapped person can sit but the lady said the two people would have to purchase a minimum of 3 drinks. This is not the first time they have purchased from the cafe because the wait time for TBC is usually long - they get an average boba drink but after this passive aggressive approach the person took, we will no longer be supporting. They get full from customers who take TBC to go. It is important to emphasize 1 of 3 people were sitting on the green planter box... not 3 of 3. read more

The little old lady is by far the rudest lady. As soon as she saw me and my kids come in she right away asked me to buy them drink as well in order for me to sit down in the restaurant. I looked around to see if it was the same with other people and NO SOME PEOPLE HAD DRINKS AND SOME DIDNT. read more

As soon as my family and I walked in we were welcomed with a big smile from the lady that's serving the tables. She led us to where we can order and was very sweet about it. I ordered an ice cream from there and it was super sweet and yummy. The ambiance was really nice we had a nice big projector to see the tv which was awesome. 10/10 service read more

Great service! We were greeted in a super friendly manner and they go above and beyond! Will come back

Came here for a drink while waiting to be seated for dinner. Got the Peach tea and the Arnold Palmer, amazing!!! The lady working was extremely sweet and had amazing customer service, and constantly cleaned everything. Will definitely be returning! read more

Years ago it was hard to find Dole Whip except for Disneyland. It's easier to get these days. Café Home right next to Boiling Crab in KTown serves this tangy fluffy pineapple delight. After being disappointed at Honeymee, the rest of the Yelp crew found our way to Cafe Home to get some Dole Whip to share. This restaurant is deep so finding the cashier to go will take you to the end of the restaurant. Craving for Dole Whip in KTown? You found your spot. read more

The only reason anyone ever comes here is because they need a place to eat Boiling Crab to-go orders (because the actual boiling crab restaurant is usually an hour and half wait). You need to order a minimum of 1 drink per person, which is fine, but their mediocre drinks are $5.50 and up and its just for plain hot teas. Iced teas are $6.50 and up. I came here with my sister and my niece, we showed our boiling crab receipt & sat down on a table outside (the nice young gentleman sat us). We ordered one drink each and I went to go check our togo order right next door from boiling crab, there was a wait for pick up :( so it took about 10 min. When i came back with the bags of boiling crab, the Owner (a middle aged lady) was shooing my sister and niece out. She assumed they werent paying customers, even though they explained theyre waiting on me to come back with the to go order. Anyways, the kicker wasn't even her rude attitude for trying to kick us out, she of course didnt apologize. She sent a server out in the middle of us eating, and the server took one of the extra table covers from OUR to go bag!! Literally hunched over to the corner of our table and without even saying anything digs into our bag and took the table cover. WTF???? Boiling crab did them a huge favor for bringing business to those who are waiting, but good god will i ever sit here again read more

Oh yeah! This is a place where you want to eat your shrimps, crabs, crawfish and oysters from next door, Boiling Crab. Wait time's max is half an hour during the busy hours of dinner but that's better than a 2-hour wait! Be ready to get dirty, be who you are and have fun with the food. They have big screen TVs and if it's a game season, that is what you are going to expect. Otherwise,a Korean show will be on their screen all day long. This is where I get my sweet potato latte. It's really good although the price is $5.00 for a cup. They also serve draft beers and other drinks to wash down your BC goodness with a bowl of popcorn. That's cool. With the staff, they're attentive and I have not experienced any rudeness. This place is clean and have a relaxed environment. I have visited this place so many times. The bathroom? Think of a spa. Super clean! read more

Cafe Home is cafe that serves beer, coffee, and boba. They also have tvs to watch games. I ordered a hot Taro boba and my sister had the almond boba. Both were really good! What's really awesome about this place is that it is right across from Boiling Crab, the super delicious Cajun-spiced seafood restaurant that has a long wait. Cafe Home is really nice about letting customers bring in their Boiling Crab take-out to eat here. *All you have to do is have each person in your party buy a drink. They even help you set up the table! Really great service! read more

First the owner lied to us and stated we have to sit here when there was free seating available, not being from the area we were naive and believed her. She then stated we are forced to purchase a drink from their menu and pay $5 for seating. After being frustrated and stating yes to her irrational conditions; at the end of the dinner she tried to make us pay for more than what we were forced to order. Terrible place with terrible management, I would not suggest this place to anyone, avoid if you can because you are going to be ripped off! read more

This place had fresh squeezed KIWI JUICE!! Amazing! Never in all my years did I even think such a thing was possible. It was extraordinary. A giant glass....of fresh pressed kiwi. I don't know if you heard me - kiwi juice. It was smooth and sweet and sour all at once. They must have used 20 kiwis to make this one cup of juice. I WILL be coming back. Only in K-Town..... read more

You can eat your boiling crab here. But in order to do so each person in your party must order a drink. I'd rather purchase a drink than wait an hour or even more to dine in at boiling crab. What about you?! If you choose this option simply what you do is ask Cafe Home if they have any tables that you can eat your boiling crab at. If so place an order with the to-go boiling crab and enjoy your food at Cafe Home! The drinks were pretty decent. The taro tasted pretty good despite it being made with powder. We also got a strawberry smoothie that was alright. The service at Cafe Home was great. They did everything for us from putting our boiling crab bibs on to cleaning up the aftermath. They even gave us ketchup because boiling crab didn't give us enough for our Cajun fries. read more

Bought three bottles of water (costs more than some menu items AND tipped) and was not allowed to sit down inside and asked to leave.

I come here all the time to indulge in my boiling crab, usually we order a pitcher and go to town. they have tvs so you can watch the latest game, beer , wine , soju, and desserts. I really like the pineapple dole whip, super delicious . very friendly staff but unfortunately especially on the weekends they are understaffed and it gets a little crazy. I feel bad for the only server that is working. the ladies in the back making the drinks. regardless I willl still come and support the local family run business. read more

This restaurant lets you bring your Boiling Crab orders and you can eat here provided you order drinks or any of their desserts. I met a server who's commonly called, "Mama." We love her! She opens the boiling crab bags for you. She makes sure you have everything you need to enjoy your "crustaceans." When I asked her to take a photo of me and my friends, she noticed my cel's running low on battery. She immediately asked what kind of phone I have. She then took my cel and charged it. Wow! Talk about service! She's really nice and the rest of the staff were so helpful. read more

Love bringing boiling crab here. The tap beers are delicious and you get free popcorn!

This cafe is located in a crowded plaza, so parking sucks. I was a bit confused on the atmosphere of the place, since it served alcohol, coffee, boba, and had people with Boiling Crab there. Long-story short, the owner is the same one for Boiling Crab and allows you to eat your to-go orders there if you purchase a drink. Service: it lacked attentiveness. Of the 3 different servers, there was 1 that seemed like she hated it there and projected that miserable tone when assisting us. Aside from that it took time to get seated, to order, to get our stuff, to get more water, and to get our check. Food: if you ate and didn't feel completely full, then this is the place you want for dessert and alcohol. The "waffle" was $7.50 (seems overpriced for just a waffle). The server didn't really do a good description of it and made it seemed like it was a generic fluffy waffle with whipped cream. However, I'm pleased to say it was an understatement. It was a warm, thinly pressed waffle, drizzled with just the right amount of maple syrup, topped with French vanilla ice cream, strawberries, kiwis, whipped cream and another drizzle of chocolates fudge. It satisfied the sweet tooth and big enough to share or fill that extra spot in your stomach. Overall, seems like a cool place to chill/eat Boiling Crab, but bring lots of company to make the wait go by. read more

This is more of a three and a half star place like the ratings suggest. Dole Whips here and relatively close to where we are staying make my boyfriend extremely happy. Even though it's $6 per Dole Whip, he loves them. This place was hard to find at night for us, despite it saying that it's next to Boiling Crab. Park on Alexandria and look around Pieology. read more

Me and my family came here to order some drinks and we waited for what felt like a long time. The lady, im pretty sure that shes the owner, knew that we were standing there waiting to get our order taken but it was as if we were invisible to her. When she did make eye contact with us she let out a sigh like if she was annoyed that we were there. We have came here before to ask for a table to eat boiling crab because it gets packed at times and there isn't space to eat inside. She makes you buy something which is understandable but shes so damn rude about it. I've been there a couple of times and it seems as if she always has a nasty attitude towards my brother. Her drinks are good but still. I usually don't write reviews unless the place is really bad, which it is. If your gonna be rude to customers, don't have a business. read more

Tonight was a such a horrible night for me and Cafe Home made it much better. I wasn't feeling well at all, after having one bite of that Boiling Crab shrimp I ordered and brought over here to dine in and eat. The young lady here assisted me while I felt overwhelmed in dismay at the table. She gave me a cup of hot water. The Milk Tea boba I ordered made me feel better as well. Thank God for her because this was the nicest thing someone has done for me throughout the entire day. Every time I dine in here, I feel highly welcomed and taken care of. I love it at Cafe Home. The name speaks for itself. read more

There's an ATM machine here and you can play with board games like battleship, scrabble or monopoly with your friends. Ok..I better go because I could smell someone's smoking....*coughing* 3.5 stars!! Cafe Home is kinda yummylicious!! read more
