    Patio
    Lily Q.

    What an interesting place. Elorea is both a perfume shop and a cafe, located on the third floor of an ornate building on 6th St, across from Chapman Plaza. We took the stairs but there should be elevator access around the corner. The store is a large, open, minimalistic space with black and white tones. Definitely very aesthetic. There's also an outdoor patio with a few tables/chairs and some shade with good views of LA. We parked in a lot several blocks away but you can get lucky with street parking too. Staff is friendly and attentive, explaining the store concept, the scents, and the different products. I was really drawn to Heaven and Hazy Blue but ultimately did not end up buying because I should probably get through the ones I have at home. We did end up getting cafe drinks and heading to the patio. I got the matcha (paired with the Heaven scent) and thought it was pretty good. It was the perfect sweetness for me, which probably means it'll be a bit too sweet for many others. Pricing is about what you'd expect around the area. Overall, unique concept and a cool spot to spend an hour or two. I won't be regularly returning for the cafe portion but if you're into fragrances, I'd recommend coming to check it out at least once. It reminds me of To Summer in Shanghai.

    Since I am a huge collector of perfume and I love drinks, This place was meant for me. (Also, I am a rooftop girl, and this place has a gorgeous one) Slight bummer they do NOT take reservations and they do not even have a phone number. I had to email them about booking for a birthday. They got back to me very fast, though. So bonus points for that. They only take walk ins and said it gets very crowded on the weekends. So come early They have this online giving out a parking tip -Parking Tip. I parked in the H mart parking conveniently located across the street. The parking entrance is on Mariposa. And you can get it validated at H mart if you make a purchase. We had to type in our license plate number Or if you get lucky there is street parking right outside. You have to take the elevator up to the 3rd floor for Elorea This was an incredible experience. It was a sip and smell Ashley, was showing us around the perfume. They have 16 different ones and they are nicely displayed. The whole place was clean and they had someone wiping down the perfume display constantly (The perfume is unisex) Everyone here was extremely friendly. I loved the look of the place. It was upscale yet minimal. The only downside is, I wish they did serve cocktails. It is regular drinks / coffee only. Our group ordered a bunch!!! (My favorite was GIT. It had lychee and aloe in it) and it matched their GIT perfume scent (without it tasting like perfume) -Git -gentle showers -hazy blue -silk bouquet -cloud daze -earth -heaven -Jang -Bae frais At the end, I caved in and bought 3 of their perfume. There was a deal going on and I got one hand cream and two travel size ones for free. Ashley and Cortland helped me out with these. I came one day early, when I purchased the 3 bottles of perfume, Ashley informed me the next day they were having a bottle engraver come in (free when you buy a bottle) she said they could of kept my purchases and then shipped them to me in the mail. But, I was greedy and wanted to take them home vs waiting. I do regret this lol. I can't stress enough how much I loved this concept and how I have never been to anything like this before. This was such a cool get together with friends. (So glad I had a bunch of my favorite people with me) 5 stars for service 5 stars for ambience (it was giving New York vibes) 5 stars for the perfume 5 stars for the whole smell and taste concept Only downside? The parking can be tricky. You can also sign up for emails and order their perfume online. (It's way better getting it in person though)

    I was with two friends who were visiting from out of town and wanted something that felt uniquely LA, but not touristy. Well how's a Korean perfumery with a cafe attached to it (and an ice cream pop up the day we showed up lol). We didn't try any of the drinks, but spent a solid hour trying scents, talking to the staff, and eventually buying something hahaha. We opted to get ice cream from the pop up they had outside and sat on the outdoor patio. I wish they had a bigger awning to accommodate the seating they had outside, but it was only partially covered. The price of the perfumes felt reasonable as an independent fragrance brand and the cafe pricing wasn't too bad either (I think their mocktails were slightly cheaper than a bar and the coffee was about the same). Ambiance was great and it was a nice way to kill some time while in ktown.

    New concept of a fragrance and coffee bar from Korea brand Elorea. Your senses are awaken by the inviting aroma from the coffee bar and the parfum samples. The layout gives a classy vibe, with black and white themed decor, it is elegantly designed. This a high-end, yet comfy and casual spot for a coffee date with friends or your significant other. In the center is a circular counter with fragrances displayed with accompanying Note cards describing the contents. Ashley was our Customer rep, she was professional and patiently explained the products, fragrances and lotions. All are paired with an coffee, tea or matcha-type drink (iced or hot) are available. It is not easy to describe the full essence and experience. I feel I ought to give a little more details. In our group of five, we ordered the following from the THE RESONANCE COLLECTION (in alpha order): - Bae Frais (Pear Cider) - hot tea, paired with a Light Fruity scent parfum. - Cloud Daze - Rice Creamsicle drink, paired with a Warm & Fuzzy feels parfum. - Gentle Shower - iced green tea paired with - a clean coastal scented parfum. - Silk Bouquet - iced drink paired with a Woody scent parfum. - Hazy Blue - iced drink - paired with a fresh Musk scent parfum. From the TIMELESS LEGACY COLLECTION (in alpha order): - Earth - hot coffee drink, paired with a Leathery, earthy tone parfum. - Git - iced with lychee, paired with a Woody, Pine scent parfum. Jang - iced Savory flavor paired with a Warm & Husky parfum. I was fascinated with the overall concept. The scents are made for both men and women. They are light and fresh to smell, not too flowery or overpowering. I am kicking myself now, for not diving in and buying a bottle of parfum. I guess that means I must return and take advantage of their monthly specials. Online ordering is available on their website. Seating areas: There are a few indoor seats, and an outdoor patio on the rooftop balcony with a view of Koreatown. Note 1: Entrance on 6th Street, take the elevator to the 3rd floor. Note 2: Parking in nearby lots or metered on 6th Street, two-hour residential parking on side streets. Sincerely, Rosemary

    This is my favorite thing we did on our recent vacation. The staff made picking a fragrance a really enjoyable experience and the Jang coffee was so insanely good. I think about that coffee nonstop.

    Friendly, amazing, & overall lovely staff throughout the tea bar and parfums. This place is unique because all their specialty crafted drinks are based off their parfums! Which smells fresh and great on their own! I tried the gentle shower and once served they ask you to smell the parfum before tasting! A very nice and luxe experience here smelling the scents. Very friendly reps as they aren't pushy or uncomfortable. They are knowledgeable on the story and history of the scents which I find really cool! I def liked the drink more than the parfum but next time I would wanna try haenyo drink (: as I did like how that parfum smelled! Drinks were def special and unique I would def comeback for just that as they were delish!

    What an incredible experience at ELOREA! From the moment we walked in, Earl made us feel so welcome. He immediately asked if it was our first visit (which it was) and took the time to walk us through every fragrance, explaining each scent without making us feel rushed. His knowledge and genuine enthusiasm made the experience so enjoyable. Once we narrowed down a few scents, Earl suggested we grab a drink, relax, and take our time before making a decision because, as he explained, many people end up changing their minds after enjoying the café. That was such thoughtful advice, and he was absolutely right to encourage us not to rush. The drinks, which are inspired by some of the perfumes, were amazing! I ordered the Jang, a coffee-based drink, and my husband had the GiT. Both were delicious, but the Jang was on another level. The coffee itself was fantastic, and the cream on top made it even better. Earl gave me a tip to drink about half of it first and then stir in the cream--and wow! It completely transformed the drink. It was so good that I ended up going back for a second Jang before we left! After relaxing, we went back to choose our fragrances, and Earl continued to be incredibly patient, friendly, and helpful. We even received a complimentary hand cream, which was such a nice touch. Overall, our first visit to ELOREA exceeded every expectation. The concept of pairing fragrances with specialty drinks is unique, the atmosphere is beautiful and relaxing, and the customer service was outstanding. Earl and the entire staff were warm, kind, and genuinely cared about making our experience memorable. We'll definitely be back--and I'll absolutely be ordering another Jang! Highly recommend!

    I came here on a whim after wanting to buy a new perfume. I briefly remember seeing Elorea in Seoul, but regret not checking it out. I'm glad I was able to visit the LA location during my visit! I ended up buying a 50ml bottle of the silk bouquet perfume, which was discounted at $112, I believe the original price was $130 or $140. It has a lovely light floral scent. My purchase also came with a free drink, which I opted for the cloud daze. My boyfriend and I were able to enjoy our drinks on the rooftop. We came during the weekday, so it was not as busy and was quite peaceful. The staff was very friendly and helpful, and the baristas were super nice. The drinks are super tasty and I would come back to check out their other scents and drinks!

    ELOREA is a different type of euphoria. It's a cool scent and sip magical trip for your nose and lip. Their perfumes are gender neutral and inspired by Korean heritage. The drinks are designed to complement the scents and I'm not going to go through all of them but I'll give you a quick example. One of their drinks that I ordered was called Earth which was a mocha latte that's actually smoked with a bit of Misugaru. Check out my video so you know where I'm coming from. We almost tried the whole menu except for the matcha but as for me I was good with all the different types of drinks and their flavors. A shout out to Ashley for walking us through their concept and her suggestions. The atmosphere is minimalistic but chic with a killer playlist that puts you in the mood. They have some seating inside and an alfresco patio area.

    ive seen this experience on ig and immediately saved it. saving it for a special occasion. welp, the squad met up for tesee's birthday celebration. i arrived around 1115ish but got distracted so didnt get to the rooftop til about 1130am. which is a good time to visit as it wasnt busy. it def picked up when we left, which was close to 2pm. elorea is beautiful and has a classic vibe. loved the b&w and minimalist decor. love the concept of scent and sip. all the fragrances are gender neutral. each note has a story behind it. ashley led our fragrance experience and walked us through each scent and explained how they came up with each one. it was all really beautifully organized and easy to follow. my heart was fluttering. okay the drinks: we ordered: earth gentle shower hazy blue git jang bae frais cloud daze silk bouquet guess we ordered all except the matcha lol - heaven my favorite was the silk bouquet and git. i love sweet and refreshing drinks. love the rooftop seating. it was really comfy and inviting. elorea has location in NY , CA and ofc Seoul. parking: street or you can park across the street in the structure of hmart, they validate for two hrs , with a purchase ofc. and walk over.

    This place is a really interesting Perfume/Drink place. It's kind of hidden since you take an elevator that you probably never take if you've came to this plaza before and it takes you up to the rooftop. There are stairs to come up here as well. The center of the building is perfume, different scents for you to smell and purchase. The people here are pretty nice and friendly. There is an interior piece and exterior section for sitting. The outside is just some seats with an umbrella and the inside is just normal seats. On a hot day, you want to be inside. They have a drink area on the east side of the building. The drinks are themed and they give you a card to smell. They told me to smell the card and then drink the drink. I have to say, these are the worst tasting drinks in the world lol. I could only manage taking a sip. For parking, you can park in the city center. If you spend 30 dollars at the Hmart your parking is validated. Overall, it's a nice place to visit. Drinks are nice looking but taste horrible.

    We like its nice vibe and decor inside as well as the patio. Their barista makes good lattes, and decorate it very well. They have nice cute patio which allows you to see the part of the city. Their perfume selections are really good. Definitely recommend this place to others.

    Heavenly matcha next to the perfume scent area.

Maneki Neko also operates a sister concept store called CATCH Little Tokyo located on the third floor of Japanese Village Plaza. [Parking]: As long as there are no special events in Little Tokyo, the Aiso Parking Garage (101 Judge John Aiso St) is your best bet. [Selection]: The shop has transitioned from primarily selling traditional decor / ceramics / cosmetics (which the shop still carries but in a smaller section) to focusing mainly on plushies and blind boxes featuring IPs like Sanrio, Pokémon, and other Japanese anime. Even though an officially licensed Sanrio store is located next door, Maneki Neko still has an excellent selection of Sanrio items that you can't find at the next-door licensed Sanrio store. [Conclusion]: This is one of those shops where I can probably find a Sanrio plush that I am willing to buy as a gift. It is a perfect example of a thriving shop that has learned to adapt by keeping up with changing consumer tastes.

The shop itself is on the smaller side, but they really pack a lot into the space. They carry a little bit of everything from snacks and blind boxes to household items and stationery. There's also a huge selection of Sanrio and anime merchandise, so it's a great place to find cute collectibles or small gifts. Whether you're shopping for yourself or looking for something fun for someone else, chances are you'll walk out with something. The staff has always been friendly during my visits, and while the store can get pretty busy at times, the overall experience is still enjoyable. Prices are fairly decent for the area which is definitely a plus. If you happen to be in Little Tokyo and enjoy browsing cute or quirky shops, I'd definitely recommend stopping by--it's worth the visit!

Every time I come here I always end up spending a couple hundred for big hauls because I want everything haha, but prices aren't bad at all. This last time I got a free diffuser as a gift with purchase! They also suggested buying these Japanese cough drops since I was headed to a concert (which - good looking out! was absolutely needed and helpful). They even checked the ingredients in Japanese to make sure that I wouldn't have any allergic reactions which was so sweet! Service has been consistently great every time that I've visited here. This last time I went was super early on a weekday though, so wasn't busy at all. It was shortly after they opened because I happened to have an appointment in the area and needed some beauty products for a trip. They were great with answering all of my beauty questions! The only con may be parking when it's busy or later in the day. I've tried coming here at night before but struggled to find parking when the lot was full and there weren't any spots on the street nearby. So definitely try to plan to come earlier in the day/when it's less busy.

However, I believe there is room for improvement when it comes to customer service. On multiple visits, I've noticed that one employee, who regularly wears a face mask, appears to follow me throughout the store while checking what is in my shopping basket. At first, I assumed it was a coincidence, but during my most recent visit, my friend noticed the same behavior. Being closely watched while shopping creates an uncomfortable experience and makes it difficult to browse at ease. As a person of color, this interaction was particularly unsettling. I hope management takes this feedback into consideration so all customers can feel welcomed and comfortable while shopping.

We were interested in stopping because it was our first time there and wanted to see it, however, we only had approximately one hour to explore. The shopping center wasn't too busy yet since it was so early, but also most all of the stores were closed as well. We did not get the complete experience of everything that this mall offers. A couple of bakeries were open when we visited and I am glad that we stopped! They allowed us to get some sweet treats and pastries, and they actually became one of the highlights of our trip to Little Tokyo! Although some of the stores weren't opened yet, it was great just to explore the area! All of the storefronts at the mall and surrounding Plaza were decorated for the holiday season. This brought an extra layer of charm to the shopping trip and helped create a cozy, festive ambiance! The quietness of the early morning hours created a amazing environment for us to walk through and enjoy our short little excursion to this beautiful shopping center! Although my visit was brief, I thoroughly enjoyed the experience. I would love to go back again, but next time during afternoon or evening hours when all the shops are open so I can finally see everything the Little Tokyo Mall has to offer!

I've seen Anime Jungle evolve and take over the entirety of the underground mall area. RIP to Fairytale Boutique, Fickle Wish, Xenon, and the day and age where Anime Jungle had their own dedicated shop for visual kei and J-rock. Never forget what you've lost. Other businesses have come and gone, like the mochi ice cream place. If you ever get mochi ice cream at the supermarket, it's likely from them and the macaron place that I loved, but alas, tis the world we live in. Other than the Anime Jungle that I go to and Little Akihabara LA for their pop ups and events, I also go to Monkey Pants, sometimes I swing into the Sanrio shop (they usually do the character meet and greets here, if not at JapanLA or somewhere egregiously far), Tokyo Japanese Lifestyle (they got staff POSTED there due to the thefts I'm sure, but I've gotten my bearded dragon keychain here and now I have them in all sizes), Catch (located on the 3rd floor and is MASSIVE for blind boxes and other goods), Neko Stop (I've gotten better deals here than the location in the Santa Anita Mall), and I've stopped in the Nijiya when I've been trapped there to get snacks or some bottled tea. Love the bakery there and the meat buns that they have (despite prices constantly rising due to the capitalist hellscape we live in) and the cafe to get affordable savory dango and takoyaki. The okonomiyaki place is one of the best, if not only places to get okonomiyaki at a place dedicated to the dish. Once in awhile they do a collab with multiple restaurants, not just at the mall too, such as Silent Hill F, Reincarnated into a Slime, during AX, Arknights, etc. Really drives the crowds and businesses here which is nice. Parking at the structure is a bit pricy and can get super fisted with bad drivers though, so keep that in mind.
