Ordered the Crème de banana and it genuinely did not disappoint - exceeded my expectations actually. Sweetness was just right! My partner and I have been to nearly every coffee shop in the area and throughout Ktown.. this place deserves way more flowers. While I agree that there should be more than 1 person working in the shop, I understand how hard it might be for a small business to do that. There are few tables/chairs so I would say this is more of a grab and go spot. Ultimately, would absolutely be back. Cant wait to try the TLS latte next.

This is a very cute little spot with unique organic treats. The service is great and very personalized.

Great addition to the Little Tokyo Coffee Shop scene because there is like NONE. Love the drinks and it's really cute inside. Not a place to do work but just a nice stop to chit chat with friends. Service is great.

This place is not in the best location and has very limited seating, so I would definitely order To-go or through a delivery service. However, if you're staying nearby like I was, this place is the perfect spot to grab breakfast. I had the TLA latte with oatmeal and it was amazing, not overly sweet and still felt like a treat. Sometimes when I order an iced coffee beverage, it feels overly sugary and watered down but this was not my experience at all here. It was very good and well made.

The cafe is quite small so you might miss it like I did but they have a sign outside. The interior is well decorated and has a lot of natural lightning but there isn't that much space. They also sell some pastries besides their drinks too. They have a wall where you can leave a post it note which I thought was so cute. The employee who made my drink was really nice, she remade my drink after forgetting my oat milk but the service was quick. I'll be returning! The signature latte with oat milk: 9/10!

Found this spot on accident and had to give it a try! I've had strawberry latte once before and had to give it another try. They use Korean strawberry milk and top it with sweet cream and freeze dried strawberries. It was balanced and not too sweet. I was served quickly not much of a wait and only a couple people in the store. I also enjoyed the sausage brioche served with a hash brown. Everything cost $19 This could be a place to get some work done if you don't mind mild music playing. Or perfect for grabbing something to go.

I give the latte shop a solid yes!! I have lived in little Tokyo for a while, but didn't get around to trying this shop until recently. I've been missing out!! The TSL latte (it has vanilla and cold cream) was not too sweet, a good thing in my opinion, and creamy. Next time I might ask for one more espresso shot to make it stronger. Service was decent. It took them about five minutes to make my latte, which is by no means slow. They have a little bit of seating, and the interior is pleasantly quaint. This café is off the beaten path of Little Tokyo, so I feel like it doesn't get the credit it deserves. I will definitely be back to try their food and more lattes.

Cute little coffee shop! I love their coffee and food most of all! Their staff is super friendly and welcoming. Parking is a hit or miss because of the area but that's typical in LA.
