This is a cute little spot with unique comfort food. I got the spicy rice cakes with seafood in sweet pumpkin - I've never ordered anything quite like this before, but I enjoyed this as it was comforting yet filling. The pumpkin helped balance out the heavy parts of the dish like the cheese and rice cakes. I also tried some of the chicken quesadilla, which I thought was decent but nothing special. Service was average - I have no positive nor negative comments. We went at dinner time, and the restaurant was dimly lit. It was quiet inside and good for a small group of people or dates. I can imagine it gets brighter during the day and can see people coming here to study, as I believe their menu also turns more into a cafe during the day. Would recommend giving this small business a try! read more

Coffee was really good especially the hazelnut lattes. The environment was pleasant and beautiful flowers everywhere. I discourage ordering the Hawaiian pizza. It was more like a big nacho covered with cheese sprinkled with ham chunks and canned pineapple , dominoes does it better. read more

I ordered flowers from Cafe Scent for my wife yesterday for very special occasion. Today is our 42nd wedding anniversary. I know it's excellent reputation cause I heard from many different people including my close friends in K-Town. I picked it up at 11 am at the shop and it was waiting for me. I was so glad I didn't have to wait for it. Because I had a lunch appointment with my wife at noon at Chinese restaurant in Simi Valley. When I arrived at the restaurant with this beautiful flowers the customers and servers all praised how beautiful flowers were. Let me tell you about this flowers. It is not ordinary flowers but it was a piece of art. It was not like common flowers but ART itself. When my wife saw it at the restaurant her face lightened up with joy. I'm so glad I picked Cafe Scent to prepare my 42nd wedding anniversary this gorgeous flowers. I strongly recommend Cafe Scent flowers to anyone who wants their special event even more special. read more

I ordered several items and overall really enjoyed my lunch here! ~ Unfortunately, I couldn't get a photo of the chicken quesadillas -- they were my favorite! The other dishes were great too. The place wasn't crowded when I visited, which made for a relaxed experience. And I think the prices are very reasonable~ My server was nice as well. I'll definitely be coming back! read more

I tried those two dishes that my companion recommended. They were both very tasty. The spicy rice-cake was not that spicy but rather sweet, and gabocha pumpkin added its own sweet-potato-like flavor and texture to the dish (I have a sweet tooth). The seafood udon was very good as well, but I personally liked the rice-cake dish a bit more. The indoor parking on the first level of the same building (with an entrance right next to Cafe Scent) was free with validation - for up to 2 hours, from what I heard. read more

I visited this store two weeks ago. I ordered some hot water from this store, but a fly came out. The server may have found this water, but the hygiene here is worse than you think. If you order hot water, there are fly flies on lemons, so be careful. also there are a lot of dusts in this store. read more

it's always a gamble to know if i'll have a good experience at scent. i've been to cafe scent for over 10 years now and it was a solid place but these days, it's really a hit or miss; the flavors are inconsistent. great ambiance; it's ideal for meetings or dates. for parking, i'd say street parking is your best option. they have a variety of korean fusion and other cuisine. their hamburg steak sometimes REALLY hit and sometimes REALLY misses. their other menus are similar too. i'd say when it's really good, it's really good but other times, it's just greasy. i wish their food was consistent because it is good but yea, had to tuck away two stars for that. read more

I am beyond disappointed with my experience. They claim to make bridal and wedding bouquets for every occasion, but it's shocking that they think it's okay to charge such high prices for OLD flowers! The bouquet I received was wilted and far from fresh. If the flowers had been top quality, I might understand the price, but that wasn't the case at all. It felt like a complete rip-off. For what they're charging, I expected something beautiful and fresh, not something that looked like it had been sitting around for days. read more

Came here while I was getting my car washed around the corner! A super cute, quaint setting with current hip music on the speakers :) servers were kind & service was nice! Very sweet community.

Beautiful little gem tucked away in Koreatown. My girlfriend's and I met here for our first get together in 2 years. Our server was new, I believe his name was Terry. Young guy, very sweet. He grabbed a notepad and took our orders. One of my party had recently removed wisdom teeth so she was a little particular about her food and asked for a cup of hot water to rinse her mouth. He ended up bringing two cups of hot water just to be sure. The jujube tea, citron tea, and ginger tea were all delicious. Served warm not hot, which enabled us to enjoy them right away and didn't hurt my friend's mouth. There was a little white dog in the middle of the restaurant, far from the kitchen and far from the tables, but close to the restroom. She was hilarious and let you pet her when you walked by. This was the first public restroom I've ever see with a bidet! I didn't test it out but I was curious. The atmosphere takes you out of the city hustle and bustle and tucks you into a secret garden style botique eatery. All our food was delicious! My rose Pasta flavor was similar to a vodka sauce at an Italian place. Very flavorful! The spicy pasta my friend had was not spicy but it's possible they toned it down for us because places tend to do that with people they think are not aquatinted with a culturally spicy dish. Who knows? Whatever the case, if you go to a restaurant because you like a more nich style atmosphere and feel with a down home vibe, check it out. read more

We were looking for a baby shower venue but we had an idea that only Cafe Scent could execute. We arranged a meeting with the owners and they accommodated our every request. Our baby shower was pumpkin themed because it was on Halloween wknd and we wanted to make pumpkin vase floral arrangements. The owners prepared a beautiful assortment of loose flowers for us to cut and arrange into our floral foam and pumpkin vases during the event. They also made us a gorgeous centerpiece ahead of time. We were happy they already had pumpkin dishes on their menu to match our theme like spicy rice cake with pumpkin, sweet pumpkin almond pizza, and sweet pumpkin mixed green salad. We also pre-ordered spicy pasta with tomato sauce, bacon pasta with cream sauce, Italian pizza, chicken quesadillas, oven baked chicken wings, chicken Caesar salad, and a variety of drinks. It was perfect because we had a mixture of Korean and American guests so the fusion of both cuisines fit everyone's palate and was really delicious. Cafe scent is amazing because they fulfilled our venue needs for florals, as well as provided flavorful food and drinks. They were attentive to our needs the whole time and even were generous to let us use their space when we went over on time and clean up our floral mess afterwards. Everything went seamless thanks to Cafe Scent. Thank you for the most beautiful and perfect baby shower! read more

For the first time this place. We passed by this place and wanted try someday. Finally I got to chance to try but it was totally terrible experience. Food(1/5)- I got a coupon when I checked in on yelp for free drink if order any of entree. We ordered tuna tartare but I didn't eat raw food. I recommend that menu to my friends and I asked to the waitress how tasted that and she said its good. Food came out pretty but my friends said tasted so funny. They said they thought eating raw fish bibimbap without rices. I tried tasted only kiwi dressing but it really good but Tuna smell like a gochujang. We definitely not recommend that. Drinks(3/5)-we ordered ice americano, ice plum, milk tea, kiwi mojito(no alcohol). Ice americano and ice plum tasted just ok but a lot of drink. Kiwi mojito was amazing tasted you would like that if you like herb tea. When I drinks that my mouse was got really fresh from mint herb. Only I can recommend kiwi mojito. Service(2/5)- we requested changed our sits when they have a empty table. It was little busy there when we went to there and no tables. We sats at bar and just waiting to move our sits while drinking. But they forgot that and they just moved other people. The waitress was nice at the first time but I didn't know why she got a bad attitude to us maybe from busy?? I really disappointed this place when we asked for the check. Our waitress asked to us need to parking stamp and we give her our parking ticket. When I looked at our check parking sticker $0.35 without any explanation. If have to pay for that they should told to us about that.. we thought nothing extra pay for that but it wasn't. You need pay $0.35 for parking stamp. I thinking it would nice to let us know first that and we don't have reason to feel bad from that. Only $0.35. Who's going to not paying even they explain to you that. Ambience (4/5)- i was happy to found new pretty cafe in this area and they have a sent store too so smell so amazing good from flowers. I like their interior. It was romantic place with quite place. You can outdoor seat when nice wether. Outdoor seat area was pretty too. read more

Friendly, clean, tasty. This is a cafe that serves above average food, especially for a cafe. They are a good place to meet and catch up with a friend. Plenty of quiet corners to chat over coffee and/or lunch. I ordered a BLT, and it was solid. Crisp, thick bacon, quality bread. A bit heavy on some sauce they use, but overall, the location is better than one would expect from a nondescript cafe. read more

I've been pretty fond of this hidden gem of ktown ever since I got to try their seafood spicy rice cake with sweet pumpkin, the black rice burrito, and the sweet potato pizza!!! Literally bomb.com I could eat them any day everyday. I want to praise this place in this review particularly for a bridal shower I got to host this past weekend. After comparing couple other cafes in ktown, (Giverny, Heyri, and Concerto) I mainly chose this place for the romantic vibes and the AMAZING FOOD at a very reasonable price compared to other venues. We regretfully forgot to take pictures of the dishes we had, but we surely enjoyed all the items (seafood spicy rice with sweet pumpkin, sweet potato pizza, hamburger steak, bacon pasta, and mandarin salad) and cleaned them out. The kitchen staff were very kind and made the presentation nicer than usual :) The cafe was also very lenient in how we rearranged and decorated the place, which allowed all the guests, and the bride-to-be esp, to enjoy every decor and details of the event!! The servers were attentive but not tooooo much, so we enjoyed our programs without being bothered. So extra points on that! Didn't think we would be able to pull off such beautiful and fun bridal shower at a small cafe in ktown, but cafe scent made it possible! read more

Rip off... paid $190+ tax = $208... for low quality... just because i knew the price beforehand do i have to accept the QUALITY of the product because i already knew how much it costs???? I'll leave it up to the readers if im being unreasonable... i might be..? But as a friend preparing this for a friend i was embarassed... also another friend ordered for me via dm since i wasnt good in Korean but looking at their conversation.. very rude @David J. Manager would love to meet in person to discuss the whole situation. I believe you or the employee or the owner has my contact information since it was provided at the time order. Lastly would like to ask.. have you checked the message conversation that took place? If you approve that type of customer service I have nothing to say to the service portion.. i can upload also our the dm conversation as well... again.. maybe im being unreasonable.. I am really looking forward to discussing the quality of the product I received.. read more

I loved cafe scent even before i learned how to drive to go there on my own. I don't know why I never wrote any reviews ! Anyways they're food choices are great. I saw some people complaining about their food choices.. well it is a cafe rofl !!! They have so many different drink choices. Plus, one tip I have for people is that if they have so many food choices, you should avoid it because some ingredients might be old ? I forgot the real reason rofl . Anyways I always return to cafe scent and I will always love the place. Parking : they give validations. One other info: they sell flowers in the store and I'm going to have them do my wedding this year read more

Sometimes I just want to hang out at a place where I can bring my computer and be productive. But on the tuesday night that we were there, it just was not possible: - lighting is a little on the dim side (which is good if all you want to do is relax) - the K-pop music is played a little on the loud side that even my ear buds couldn't block it out - sometime after 9pm, groups of chatty people showed up and the place started getting loud. Oh well... our productivity jam was cut short. I think the evening time is for socializing :) Brian I. did mention that during the day, the place is better for studying/working. So I'm not hating on the place. I like that there is a flower shop inside so there are fresh flowers all around. There's also easy to access outlets for your laptops depending on where you sit. And they do make a tasty Fresh Watermelon Juice: http://su.pr/1XY2ty read more

This is a cozy and romantic place. Good place to take your honey or date. Plenty of ample seating, long tables and comfy booths for small groups. If you're looking for pretty floral arrangements or plants, in the back of their restaurant, they sell flowers and plants. The drinks are good and the food was decent. I ordered spicy rice cake - it was spicy but a bit on the sweet side, but I didn't care for cheese or pumpkin in it. Their spicy seafood pasta is good. They also have outdoor seating enclosed with pretty flowers and plants. read more

The parking is not hard to find. On top of that I like how they close late at night. On the other hand I did not like that they only have 2menus and its super tiny too. The food is way tooooo expensive we spend $96. Lastly they only have few choices for the desserts. I don't think I will be coming back anytime soon. read more

Very Cute Cafe!! Let's start with the name, it's a CAFE. They have a variety of korean foods, sandwiches, desserts, pastries, frozen yogurt machine, shaved ice, and very tasty drinks. For a food establishment it didn't smell like food was being served in there though. For your typical korean cafe, it's got reasonable prices for teas and coffees. Averaging about $5-$6. For the food, it's a bit over priced. Kudos on presentation though. The food, the decor of the restaurant, and the outside are VERY VERY CUTE and very well thought out. (That's kind of the downside with korean places, usually the best food places are hole in the walls that you don't want to use the bathroom.) I had the sweet potato latte. A very unique drink for a korean cafe. It was sweet, milky, and warm. So great. A very romantic setting, lots of sitting area. They have long tables for groups too. This place has a lot of character. The outdoor seating only sits about 15 people max. read more
