Their strawberry matcha einspanner is also super popular and looked so good with a vibrant jam at the base! Their drinks are also so cute with a crescent moon on top! Service: The server was so kind behind the counter and spent a lot of time with me explaining each of their popular matchas and coffees! Ambiance: Wow was so pleasantly surprised by the parking lot in front of Damo with free parking! There are also five tables to sit inside along with some window stools, so it's a great cafe to study or read at too! There is also a bathroom for customers. Overall great spot to grab a cute drink and study or hangout with your friends! The parking is also simple! Hope you try!!

IT WASN'T TOO SWEET!! I loved how it had all the aspects of a mango sticky rice which really completed the dish. I wasnt sure if the rice was supposed to go in but I just went for it and had additional texture to the shaved ice. The mango was a perfect sweetness with the slightest tartness. The panda brick toast was also good but the mango sticky rice just took over!

I've only ordered to-go through someone, so I can't speak for ambiance but it's an extremely busy lot, so if you live near & want to enjoy in the comfort of your own home, it may be best to plan ahead, bring ice box, take multiple ppl so one can order/pick up & other can stay in the car if there's no parking. We've tried the mango stinky rice sundae (must order), Thai tea lemonade- basically cha manaow (can skip), mango sticky rice drink (pretty good if you're looking for drink version of the sundae but can be off putting texture to some), Thai tea shaved ice (melted so fast so wasn't very enjoyable), pandan toast (a lil dry but good w gelato), & gelatos: mango (good staple), coconut milk butterfly pea (yummy/creamy perfect w mango sorbet), jasmine matcha (good choice), pandan milk (strong flavor creamy yummy), earl grey Thai tea (top 3), hojicha crunch (#1), & Thai tea coffee (eh ok just coffee). All the gelatos were shining stars it just depends on preference; very thick, flavorful, & creamy. I've tried 3x in the past 2 months but will be back for more~

This is such a cute and aesthetic dessert shop! The space is bright, modern, and welcoming, making…read moreit a great place to stop for a sweet treat. We ordered the taiyaki and the black sesame anko and both were equally delicious. The taiyaki was soft and pillowy on the inside and lightly crisp on the outside. The black sesame anko was just as impressive. The shaved ice was incredibly fine and fluffy with a creamy, milky texture rather than being chunky or icy. It melted in your mouth, and the black sesame flavor paired perfectly with the sweet red bean. The desserts were not too sweet! Overall, this is an excellent choice if you're craving a little sweet treat.

I had the strawberry bingsu and it was super freshing, light, and not overly sweet like some other places. I also opted in to get the taiyaki. It comes in a set of 4 and I got the custard and nutella/banana. The custard is my absolute favorite. It was super crispy and warm in the inside. Also not overly sweet which i really enjoyed. The only bad thing I can say is that the parking situation is a little difficult but a lot of areas in koreatown are like that. 10/10 would come back

Pretty amazing that Fugetsu-Do has withstood the test of time, surviving through WWII, multiple…read morerecessions and riots, and even the pandemic. The oldest confectionery shop makes a variety of mochi and manju daily for about $2 a piece. Unfortunately, they don't make the best gifts as they must be eaten within a couple of days. They also carry some rare candy that can't even be found in Japan anymore. During my last visit, I got a few with strawberry, blueberry and chocolate flavored red bean filling as well as LA Dodgers imprinted pancakes. Chewy goodness! They can get pretty busy during the weekends, but weekdays are a quick in and out process. The staff are patient and helpful in explaining the treats. There's no seating. It's just a grab n go shop.

The historic shop has a charming old-fashioned feel, and the service was friendly, welcoming, and efficient. Every mochi tasted incredibly fresh, with a soft, pillowy texture that showcased the craftsmanship behind each handmade piece. **Sho-Mochi: 5/5** One of Fugetsu-Do's signature creations, the Sho-Mochi was a true standout. The vibrant blue mochi was incredibly soft and chewy, while the silky white chocolate ganache filling delivered a rich, creamy sweetness that melted effortlessly on the palate. **Strawberry Anko Mochi: 4/5** The strawberry anko mochi featured a soft, pillowy wrapper filled with a blend of strawberry and smooth white bean paste, then topped with a hazelnut chocolate ganache that added a rich, nutty sweetness. Unfortunately, the strawberry filling tasted somewhat artificial, lacking the fresh, vibrant fruit flavor I was hoping for. **Green Tea Mochi: 5/5** My love for matcha made this an easy standout. Filled with smooth white bean paste infused with matcha, it offered a pleasant balance of earthy, slightly bittersweet notes and subtle sweetness. **Mango Mochi: 5/5** Bursting with natural mango flavor, this mochi was wonderfully refreshing from the very first taste. Its springy chew created a pleasantly airy, satisfying texture, while the gentle sweetness rounded out the bright, fruity notes. Fugetsu-Do has earned its legendary reputation through generations of exceptional craftsmanship. From the incredibly fresh mochi to the diverse selection of handcrafted flavors, every piece reflects the care and tradition that have made this shop a beloved destination for decades. Whether you're visiting Little Tokyo for the first time or returning for a nostalgic treat, it's a timeless stop that's well worth experiencing.

Incredibly expensive for the lack of proper technique. I think perhaps the wave of social media…read morehype may have temporarily overwhelmed the team, or maybe the new hires weren't trained long enough to put out consistent work. They seemed kind of confused. My Man Go: 2/10. A trompe l'œil pastry designed to look like a mango, filled with fresh mango, mango mousse, and sitting atop a hazelnut praline cookie. For starters, the chocolate shell was soft and lacked the crispness of properly tempered chocolate. Either that, or it had started melting due to improper temperature regulation in the case. The fresh mango was overripe and had no texture; the mousse was similarly made of overripe mango and was room temperature. The praline was not made properly, and had zero structure. I don't really understand how all of these things can be true when it appears as though the pastries are sitting in a refrigerated case. What a waste of mango. Interior was standard, no decorations. TVs playing Tik Tok reviews. Tables were all dirty, probably because of the lack of structural integrity of the pastries.

The pictures don't lie. It's got that clean, modern coffee shop aesthetic, but a few quirky touches keep it from feeling like every other minimalist café. There's a photo booth in the back (which I assume explains the name) and a display of sunglasses that I never quite figured out. Also, no bathroom code. Always appreciated. Neither of us usually orders einspanners, but my wife got the vanilla and I ordered the mocha, both iced with oat milk. They were excellent. Creamy and rich and the coffee underneath was tasty even before mixing in the cream. The pastries looked beautiful and artful, although I was hoping for something simple like an almond croissant. The vibe outside on the patio was great. Lots of people working on laptops, plenty of room to settle in, and it felt more like a co-working space than a typical coffee shop. It's also super dog-friendly, has ample parking in its own lot and we even found easy street parking out front. Everything about this place just worked. We'll gladly make the 25-minute drive again.
