I went in as a request from someone in my group, I have never seen/read one piece so I don't get it…read morebut it definitely reminded me of putting a cartoon on the front of a cereal box. Though for many fans that walked in they loved it. I noticed some people just came in for a photo op and walked right out. Now the food, I had fried rice because there's nothing vegetarian on the menu, or at least nothing I noticed other than fries or fried rice. At my table there was popcorn chicken, a chicken sandwich, a burger and chicken cutlet over rice. All the dishes have a themed name which I don't remember. For the most part everyone enjoyed their plates except for the popcorn chicken it was said to be too spicy (seasoning not heat), salty and hard.

Cute spot! We only ordered the smore cookies. Quite good and surprisingly does taste like a smore…read more Just the right amount of sweetness for my taste. We got the Matcha, Red Velvet, Dark Chocolate, and Oreo! The Oreo is a fav so far. We were only going to get 3, but when we bought they had a buy 3 get one free deal! We went at night on a weekday and it was relatively empty and surprisingly some parking. Could be a nice spot to study. Would come back to try their other sweet treats. The atmosphere is pretty cute as well!

Stopped by after lunch next door, their cookies are THE BOMB I literally wanted some more after I…read morehad them haha. Ambiance is calm and peaceful and cute decor fills the place, starting with three big ole bear dolls sitting on a swing on the front window display. Would come back just to try more flavors! We got oreo, biscoff, hershey's chocolate, and blueberry cookies. They are just the right sweet, not too sweet and still flavorful. It's what makes the cookie eatable in bulk I say! Also got the Americano, it's very light which I love. The straw is a pink heart shape, so soo cute.

I love this place so much. A therapy session for both you and the kitties…read more Come 10minutes early and order a small bite to eat/a drink. 3$ cat treats to feed kitties is also fun. They have you take off your shoes but they have a some "socks" for ya and a shoe rack and a place to hang your purses. They really do care for these kitties so much and do so much work to help socialize them. Thumper was their newest cat when I got there and so if you see them please give them a huge cuddle! I love that they let the cats in the bathroom if they wanna hide or get some space (so put the toilet seat down!) What a great place to relax with kitties or come with some friends for a hangout

The cutest little cat cafe located on Melrose…read more Our family came in without a reservation, and luckily they let us in. You can choose between different times for a small fee to help the kitties. All cats are up for adoption $150 for 1 cat and $250 for 2 cats. Treats are available for $3 a pack. Super cute place

We definitely had such a great experience at the Hello Kitty and Friends Café! The service was…read moreamazing, and we were the first ones in line, which made the experience even more special. You really can't beat how incredibly cute all the food is! Everything was almost too adorable to eat. After enjoying the café, we went next door to shop for souvenirs and picked up some T-shirts to remember the visit. This was our fifth Hello Kitty and Friends Café experience, so I'm especially excited that we can officially check the Universal location off our list! Another fun Hello Kitty adventure checked off the list!

I'm not a huge Hello Kitty fan but I have friends who are so I decided to drop by this place during…read moremy casual stroll around CityWalk. Based on some of the photos I've seen of other Hello Kitty Cafes, this is probably one of the smallest and most bare bones one. No indoor seating. You order from a counter and there are a couple of tables out front. The good thing is that several of the tables had umbrellas attached that provided shade. The menu was very limited. Nothing stood out to me so I decided just to get the Strawberry Lemonade that had a hint of mint to it. It was actually quite refreshing on a hot day. The drink was pretty sweet but that is how I like my lemonades so no complaint there. The price was on par with the fact that it is a Hello Kitty branded cafe at a tourist location. All in all, the drink was decent but I wouldn't go out of my way to stop there. But at least my Hello Kitty loving friends got some photos and a kick out of me hanging out there.

This place is super cute!!…read more The chicken katsu here was really good -- crispy outside, juicy inside, not greasy at all. Sauce had a nice sweet-savory kick. Got the mango tea with it and it was so refreshing, tasted fresh not syrupy. Great combo together. Solid portions, quick service. Would definitely come back.

Japanese chicken was good but have to ask for sauce (they don't provide, otherwise) Staff - Kind, semi-attentive service. Enviance - Had to rush meal and leave cause it was so uncomfortably warm. Can't remember the last time I had to leave a restaurant cause of lack of AC.

Went in for a visit. Came out a cat dad…read more The Cat Lounge Café is the real deal. What immediately stood out is how well the cats are treated -- they have full freedom to roam, plenty of toys to keep them entertained, and they're well fed and cared for. You can tell this place genuinely prioritizes making it a warm, comfortable space for the cats while they wait for their forever home. It's not a shelter -- it feels like a home. The staff made the whole adoption experience seamless. Jude especially was incredibly kind, helpful, and knowledgeable -- exactly the kind of person you want guiding you through the process. The rest of the team matched that same energy, and it made everything feel easy and stress-free from start to finish. My girlfriend and I couldn't be happier -- we found our girl Pinky, and she's already stolen our hearts. 10 out of 10, would recommend this café to anyone thinking about adopting. Don't hesitate, just go.

CatCafe Lounge is a wonderful place to visit and spend time with cats. However, if you are hoping…read moreto adopt one, be prepared for a very selective adoption process. My wife and I have been married for 50 years, and throughout our marriage we have had all kinds of pets--dogs, rabbits, and cats. We have always loved and cared for our animals, and they have all lived out their natural life spans. In fact, we currently have a one-year-old cat whom I brought home from a shelter last year. Last week, I visited CatCafe Lounge and immediately fell in love with one of the cats. I wanted to give her a loving home. We own our home, already have a well-cared-for cat, and have a long history of responsible pet ownership. Nevertheless, my adoption application was rejected without any explanation. When I asked why, they would not give me a reason. I can only assume that our age may have worked against us. As you might have guessed, my wife and I are senior citizens. I find it disappointing that our age could be considered a reason to deny us the opportunity to adopt, especially given our long history of loving and caring for animals. CatCafe Lounge is certainly a wonderful place to visit and interact with cats. But if your intention is to adopt, be aware that even with a stable home and a long history of responsible pet ownership, there is no guarantee that your application will be accepted.

Absolute moe!! ° The…read moremaids were super attentive and made our party feel right at home. Some preconceived knowledge on maid cafes would definitely be helpful, and I recommend customers to really lean into the performance to ensure a fun experience! The interior was very cleanly and well decorated, with unique tableware, offering an adorably fun atmosphere! The food was accurate to menu and tasted very yummy. They offer pre-made cheki for you to buy, featuring custom designs made by your maid truly. I'll come home as soon as I can... whenever I visit LA again, that is. ´ ³ `）

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!

Power Up Cafe for some Super Mushroom Fizz and Fire Flower Pretzel with Chipotle Cheese, Mustard…read moreand White Queso dipping sauces. Excellent customer service as our wait was only a few minutes wait. Enjoyed the refreshing Super Mushroom Fizz lemon lime soda with strawberry popping pearls at the bottom. It also came with a dissolving strawberry flavored "Super Mushroom Power Up" candy. It's was yummy. As for the Fire Flower Pretzel, we received it fresh from the oven. It was soft and went well with the Chipotle Cheese, Mustard and White Queso dipping sauces. Can't wait to come back to try the other Super Mushroom Fizz flavors.

I went to universal studios because I had a preview for the ride fast and furious which allows you…read moreto go on this new ride once. I've been to universal studios plenty of times but always missed going to this place. It is a wonderful place to frequent if you have the time and have a season pass like I did. The food ordered were the 1-up green mushroom hot pocket vegetarian. It actually tastes like this hot pocket microwaveable pizzas you would otherwise get at the grocery store. But, the design, look and uniqueness of the food was delicious looking. I also ordered a pretzel with three sauces. This item was their best deal for a snack as it was about $10 and with the discounted season pass about $8 or so. It was cheaper than the mushrooms and drinks here. Also less fattening and less unnatural ingredients. I thought service was average and to be fair, isn't a pleasant job. The ambiance is cute and nice to look at. Great interior and exterior design throughout. The overall appeal and decoration were spectacular more or less. Good meal to have to keep you from getting lightheaded in this heat. For some reason, always crowded with tourists and locals. The lines even on a Friday morning were ridiculous. However, the lines even for this place was sort of okay. I rate the following below: 1-up mushroom 3/5, it was a unique looking hot pocket more or less Pretzel with dipping sauce 4/5, better value better taste simple and came with three decent sauces to overcome this bland taste by itself of a pretzel. There wasn't even salt on the pretzel. It was bready, but the sauces were great. Good comeback to bland. I would come back just to get the pretzel for its value and the three sauces that make up for the blandness the pretzel had anyway. It tasted fine texture wise, not too hard and not too soft.

I went to Damo around 2pm on a weekend, and the line was already starting to form out the door…read more Unfortunately, the line takes up a majority of the cafe space, along with the few sitting tables, so it was pretty difficult to find a spot to wait for my drink after ordering. The pickup area can also get blocked by the line or waiting area, which can make it a little awkward when you're trying to reach over someone to grab your drink. I ordered the Coconut Hojicha and the Matcha Einspanner. The Coconut Hojicha was refreshing, nutty, and definitely the standout of the two. It's such a fun twist on the typical matcha coconut drink, and I have to give Damo their flowers for creating something that feels unique. The Matcha Einspanner wasn't particularly stand-out compared to some of the other cafes in K-Town, but it was still a well-balanced drink with a nice mix of bitterness, sweetness, and creaminess. I can definitely see why so many people consider Damo one of their favorite cafes. Despite the crowded setup, the drinks are creative and thoughtfully done!
