    Initial D merch (Mar 2026)
    Luke L.

    *** Fujiwara Tofu Cafe will be closing its doors in March 2026 & focus more on merch via the online shop *** Fujiwara Tofu Cafe is an Initial D themed cafe located in El Monte (not formally endorsed by Initial D's creators) and the cafe has been hosting movie nights & dog gathering events. Unfortunately the cafe is closing the physical cafe in March 2026 and I decided to give this place a visit before the shop disappears. [Parking]: Usually the parking lot is pretty empty, but Fujiwara Tofu Cafe hosted the very last Park & Bark event (cars & dogs meetup with the shop's corgi - Hachi) so the lot was packed with customized Japanese cars. I came early enough & found one available spot to park. [Atmosphere]: S-tier interior decor as the entire cafe went all out on the whole Initial D theme from chairs, tables, countertops, merchandise, posters, signs, and glass cases of memorabilia. They even had Gashapon machines ($2.00 = 1 Gashapon token) and two Initial D Arcade Stage Version 3 machines (one machine was out of service). [Ordering]: Customers must order via kiosks and the shop only accepts credit cards (the shop does not accept cash). I came on a bad day as the Park & Bark event attracted a small crowd and I waited 40 minutes before my ordering number was called. The staff said they ran out of specific ingredient for tofu pudding and I ended up requesting to cancel my tofu pudding order. [Menu]: Yelp's top highlighted items are Fried Tofu and Brown Sugar Tofu. They offer Fujiwara Tofu Cafe paper bag for an extra $0.25 if customers need their items bagged. *** Fujiwara Fried Tofu (came with sweet and sour sauce - $6.86): Tofu pieces were actually fried quite nicely, but portion was pretty small. Fujiwara Plain Soymilk ($5.86): Soymilk itself tasted alright and didn't taste very concentrated, but I was disappointed that the plastic cup didn't have the signature "Fujiwara Tofu Cafe" logo on it. *** While I am a huge fan on the overall Initial D theme decor and merchandise, I have to give a big thumb down on slow service + small snack portion + ran out of multiple food/drink items.

    A great hangout place. It is located right next to the 10 freeway. You can take the rosemead exit or baldwin exit to get there. Fedex is right next door and there is a starbucks right across. The theme of this shop is based on the anime initial D. Not your typical boba shop place because majority of their drinks are soy related. They also have initial D arcade machine for people to pay and play. It closes around 10pm everyday however it tends to get quite by night because alot of the store in the plaza closed early and the area is surrounded by office buildings and businesses store that close early. Their have soy related drinks and tofu pudding which its high recommended! Hot or cold regardless is one of their signature things to order!! Be aware though because sometimes they will host car-meet and on those days / nights, the plaza and surrounding streets are usually packed with cars so you won't be able to find parking.

    Cute lil shop in a really empty plaza. I just came here after getting my tooth pulled. Dentist recommended me to have cold soft foods, and I was craving for tofu pudding...so it's a win win! I got the butterfly pea soy milk with agar boba and tofu pudding with black sesame paste (cold). Everything is sooo good! Hits all the right spots. I'll definitely be coming back.

    Let me preface by saying I'm not a car enthusiast so car meet ups does not interest me. I came here to try their tofu dessert items and pick up some merchandise for a friend. I went the weekend of their 4th Anniversary (Congratulations, btw). The place is small. It's definitely not suitable for a large group to meet and catch up on life. You walk in and order from one of their two kiosks. I was never greeted by any employees here. I wasn't even sure how their pick up process operated. After I ordered from the kiosk, I waited nearly 15 minutes for my order. I only ordered one drink. Nobody from behind the counter called out a name or number. Customers would basically walk up to the pick up window and give them their order number. It was only until then, their orders were passed over to them. It was nice looking at the memorabilia they had in store. They also had two arcade/video games, but one was out of service. Inside the establishment was very stuffy and hot. It was a hot, sunny afternoon when I went and the sun was shining directly into the business. I wished they had shade or blinds to reduce the brightness and warm temperature in there. My drink wasn't very good. I can't even remember what it was, but it tasted like watered down soy milk. Maybe most of the positive reviews were from those who attended their night meet ups because based on customer service and food alone, it wasn't anything to brag about. I really hoped for a better experience. Not sure if I'll come back again.

    Come visit before they close down this Sunday. The owner said he's going to open another spot but doesn't know where yet. Follow them on instagram for updates. There's lots of parking and the inside has cute decor. I visited later in the day so most of the items were sold out, come early if you want the fried tofu items. Most if the drinks are tofu or soy milk based. It is not like the typical boba store.

    這是一家很有自己特色的茶店,本來我會過來是因為看到網路上有冰淇淋,但是來的時候也沒看見,會給三顆星是因為豆花還可以吃,但是茶真的不怎麼樣,還有服務員的態度沒有很好,當然不是很差,基本上不會笑,也完全沒在理客人的,如果要做服務業這個行業,他們的態度真的需要改進

    Cool little Initial D themed cafe! Luckily we were in socal when there was a car meet hosted in the parking lot. They have a variety of interesting drinks with soy stuff Emperor - my friend really liked it, good if you're into sesame Soy cream green tea - wasn't as good as i was hoping. The tea wasn't very strong, but my friend seemed to like it

    [July 30, 5:58PM] Dine-in order Order: - Fujiwara Tofu Pudding w/Osmanthus Pearl (3.5/5): The boba was chewy, and tofu tasted fine. Not really fond of the flavor of the flower that was sprinkled on top of the tofu. I had to ask for extra syrup because there was barely enough to go with the top layer of the tofu. Maybe the restaurant can give syrup on the side for customers to adjust to their liking. - Fujiwara Classic Spicy Tofu (4/5): Flavor is ordinarily good. Since the store uses paper bowls, I noticed that the soup/oil started to soak into the cup, leaving orange marks throughout the cup. I was expecting something more unique in terms for flavor, but nothing really stood out to me. -Fujiwara Zone (Black Sticky Rice Coconut Soymilk) (2.5/5): The store only offered 0%, 50%, or 100% sugar level, so I went with 50%. The drink tasted like unsweetened soymilk that you can buy from the store. Maybe 100% sugar would taste better. I like the vibe inside, the decorations are one of a kind but I don't really see myself coming back again for the food or drinks.

    Cute little tofu cafe. I went with the cold tofu with black sesame and it was great. It's well decorated and a fun place to stop by if you're in the neighborhood. Not quite somewhere I'd go out of my way for. Plenty of parking in the lot. Digital payment only. Fast service.

    kiosk and payment

    A little difficult to locate for my first visit. Coming northbound from Rosemead Blvd, my GPS had me go towards the I-10, but there is also a way by turning right onto Telstar Ave. I went yesterday, Wednesday, around 3 pm, and it was not busy. Parking was easy; it is located in a plaza. TBH, there's not much in the plaza aside from a Starbucks and Del Taco. Upon entering, we were greeted by a voice behind the counter. You can order at the kiosks or online ahead of time, and they do not accept cash. Very minimal interaction with the staff, except for picking up your order in the back. I ordered an Emperor (Black Sesame Soymilk w/ Tofu Pudding) with 50% sweetness, and my brother got Night Kids (Ovaltine Soymilk with Mochi) with 50% sweetness. Mine tasted like it was not sweet at all, maybe it's the tofu, but next time I'll try 100%. Apart from the sweetness percentage, the drinks are not customizable, so I couldn't add boba, which was a bummer. However, the selection of drinks is pretty unique, so I understand. The interior is predominantly black and white, inspired by an anime. There are a lot of car and racing themes. I definitely will be back to try their tofu snacks and desserts.

    If you like Cantonese dessert tofu, this place is for you! This is basically as close as it gets to being in Hong Kong. Quality of the tofu is amazingly smooth. The soup is sweet with a hint of ginger. They have a few varieties such as red beans or taro or black sesame if you want to get fancy. But for me the traditional ones is still better. Good for take out since seating here isn't exactly comfortable. But quality won't degrade even if you take it out which is a plus!

    Finally had the chance to check out Fujiwara Tofu Cafe in El Monte. I've been craving HK authentic tofu pudding for a while and this place is pretty good! They offer various toppings and even a fun drink menu. I got an original hot tofu pudding and a tofu pudding with red bean! Both delicious and their service is straightforward. You'd first order on their kiosks, and they even have a pup tofu pudding with no brown sugar and a cute bone on top! My dog loved it! Dog approved!! The store itself is super cute and anime car-themed. For all of my car enthusiasts, this is the spot for you--check out their car simulation games!

    Pam L.

    Came here for the last weekend they were open. Really cute themed cafe with tofu drinks. The were having a car meet outside so parking wasn't easy but had lots of fun

The first time was back in May with a friend during a special event that had a costumed character and a pretty long line outside. I also came back recently to try their limited-time Captain Buggy dessert and stopped by about an hour before closing. The atmosphere is easily one of the biggest reasons to come here. The entire inside is decorated to look like the interior of a pirate ship, and the walls are covered with the characters' wanted posters. If you're a One Piece fan, there's a lot to look at and it definitely makes the experience more fun. Service was great both times. During the first visit, there was a long line because of the event, but the staff were still really friendly and helpful despite the crowd. The second time I came in right before closing, and the staff were still welcoming and didn't make us feel rushed. I was actually pleasantly surprised by the food and drinks. The first visit we ordered the matcha horchata, onigiri, katsu sandwich, and fried rice. Everything was better than I expected, especially considering this is more of a themed cafe experience. On my second visit, I got Captain Buggy's Carnival Crunch dessert, which actually tasted better than I was expecting! You'd think the fried PB&J uncrustable covered in fruity pebbles and topped with vanilla ice cream and sprinkles would be overwhelming, but surprisingly the flavors and textures went really well together! I'd honestly get it again. Overall, I really enjoyed both visits. The prices are pretty standard for an LA restaurant, so I didn't have any complaints there. Obviously, the biggest appeal is being a One Piece fan, but even beyond the theme, the food was solid and the staff were great. Definitely worth checking out if you're a fan of the series, especially when they have special events or limited-time menu items. I'll probably be coming back here next time I'm in the area just to embrace my inner otaku.

We never liked the "entrance fee" that I obviously know about and I stand by what I said: ADULTS ARE FORCED TO ORDER THEIR SUBPAR OVERPRICED FOOD FOR ENTRY aside from the entrance fee for their kids. The SGV eats post - I wasn't talking about one post. Geraldyne has posted several times and most of those times people have chimed in with their experiences and she removed her entire posts so people won't find the comments. Once again, trust the low star ratings. If you read them, you'll see a lot of them echo what I've posted here. --- If you have a toddler or a young kid, avoid this place. Read the lower rated reviews, because those paint a more accurate picture than glowing reviews from people who got discounts to this place. Adults are forced to order a meal as an entrance fee, and all the choices are subpar and overpriced. There was only one lovely staff member, an African American woman that unfortunately seemed to have left, because everyone else were not friendly nor helpful, and are barely present. The husband who supposedly cooks the meal made the driest, toughest, inedible steak salad and I couldn't even get help with my meal because there was no staff around to help, and whenever the husband came out, he would just be zipping in and out so fast I couldn't even catch him, and I couldn't leave my daughter by herself. The food choices for kids are also subpar. The play area itself is also subpar. There's very little options to play with, and whatever is there are mostly broken toys or have missing parts. The "separate" area for younger kids are always a huge mess to the point where it's safer for a 1-2 yr old to be in the general area with how disorganized it is. It's nothing but an afterthought, and bigger kids go there to mess up that area all the time No one really goes to clean up or check the play areas periodically, so even though it's part of their "rules", you see kids throwing toys at other kids, kids leaving messes around, etc. The positive reviews about these place are probably from people who've only been there once and have had some sort of discount. As a previous repeat customer who tried to give this place multiple chances, it is nothing but a cash-grab by greedy owners who care nothing about kids. The owner, Geraldine, also loves to promote her business on Facebook groups, and even whine about lack of "support" from people, but when previous customers try to make suggestions or anything remotely resembling a valid criticism, she'll remove the post so no one sees it. It's very dishonest, and shows what kind of people run this business. There are better places to go to entertain kids in SGV, don't waste your time and money here.

    HAPPY 3,000th REVIEW!…read more In honor of this milestone (like I did for the last 1k), I HAVE to give an updated review on MY FAV BUSINESS & 2023 YELP SERVICES BEST FRONT OF HOUSE STAFF WINNER, ASAYORU MAID CAFE!!! 2 years have passed since my last update, & they just keep getting better. Check my 1st review & last update if you want to see how far they've come. They finally had their grand opening this year, & from soft open to grand opening, the location has evolved once again! From start to finish, the attention to MOE detail & decor is to die for. Since this is an updated review, I'm focusing on the big & new, so feverishly points below LOOK AT MY OLD REVIEWS IF YOU WANT BASIC MAID CAFE & ASAYORU REVIEWING!! The events they host are SO, SO FUN & unique. Some are ticketed, while others are special shifts reserved through Yelp. The theming is always fantastic, whether it's a maid birthday, costume event (office day, shrine maiden, flight stewardess, etc.), or Maid with Love event, where a maid chooses a special menu for that day. These are GREAT! Where else can you have lomo saltado, nasi padang, & super-caffeinated drinks prepared 4 different ways at a maid cafe??? I also LOVE the events featuring guests & talents, including overseas idols & V-tubers. I normally wouldn't listen to this genre or become a fan, but I've discovered so many groups & artists simply because I attended an event or collab at Asayoru on a whim. I'm grateful they've expanded my horizons further into otaku culture (every day I become less of a normie & more powerful, thank you). They also have seasonal limited menus, plus menus exclusive to Asa morning & Yoru evening shifts. I'm not a morning person, but I NEED to level up & attend Asa shifts for the morning food, relaxing atmosphere, & Asa chekis with the maids. (The long, elegant maid dresses are TO DIE FOR.) This part is for the people who actually read this far & are okay with my denpa schizotypical ravings (I know like 1 GUY WHO READS THEM). This isn't for everybody. But if it isn't for you, can you really say you're enjoying life? What are you doing besides being a surface-level NPC? But I digress. All the maids are incredibly nice & fun. Getting to know them is one of the best parts, & if you're cool enough, you'll eventually have a favorite (oshi). THAT'S when the cafe gets SUPER fun!! The maids have image colors, so you can get pen lights, order an oshi float in their color, buy merch, cheki, bromides, etc. to support your oshi. You can take pictures of your chekis (Polaroids) or merch with your food or during outside adventures & tag them. It's SO fun! Asayoru is also a great window into oshikatsu culture. If you haven't experienced the true & pure love of having an oshi, visiting Asayoru is a MUST! Your life will change for the better! Trust! Which SEGWAYS into the merchandise. CHECK IT OUT IN THE LOBBY! Almost all (like 95%) is designed & produced by the maids themselves. Acrylic stands, keychains, stickers, buttons, bromides (THE PHOTOS ARE AMAZING), apparel, bags, towels, & much more! Instead of supporting a K-pop idol who will never know you exist, support an Asayoru maid! (JK, don't crucify me.) LEADING ME TO MY NEXT POINT: Asayoru also hosts Hyperstellar, a maid showcase modeled after Japanese idol taiban shows. The maids perform solo or in groups, sometimes with themes or fun costumes, alongside idol groups. It's a great intro to idol culture or simply a fun concert experience. Afterwards, there's buppan, with cheki Polaroids & meet-and-greets. You can also attend Milkyway Marketplace at Atlantic Times Square, hosted by Asayoru. There's an Itasha showcase, participating plaza businesses, anime-themed artists & vendors, a stamp rally, & an outdoor stage with performances all day. Also, to everyone who goes here after I recommend Asayoru at my panel or elsewhere & then malds at waiting (or at me specifically in your review): open a mobage, read a VN, talk to your friends, or SOMETHING. The maids are working hard & doing their best. I wrote this before & want to reiterate it: Asayoru Maid Cafe is truly a passion project & manifestation of the love, effort, & dreams of all the maids & staff involved. I will always love Asayoru Maid Cafe. I've supported them through years of growth & change, & I can only hope to update this review again for my 4,000th review & see how much they've changed by then!

I fear full sweetness might be a little much, but I'm an old Asian who believes desserts should be "not too sweet." Lololol Service was friendly, the shop is cute, and I loved the cute lighting and tea wall. I live about an hour away and I would genuinely consider making the drive back JUST for this tea!

    This is usually my go-to for boba when I seek it out on a quarterly basis, but recently I noticed…read morethat both locations (Alhambra/ Temple City) keep their temperatures quite high on a hot day so even when it's 6pm (and 90s outside), you still won't feel that comfortable there. FYI- There are some charging ports at Formosa but not all tables have an outlet. (+)- there are weekly BOGO deals (tip- check Instagram as it varies from store to store) I also visited Summerfield near Rosemead/Valley that same weekend and felt that it was more comfortable / had more seating albeit they do not have a BOGO deal like Formosa does.
