There were a few parties entering throughout the time that we were there, but it didn't get very busy. Really the hardest thing was finding a street parking spot, given the Little Tokyo location. Also FYI there are some shady areas at night a few blocks away from this (away from the action of LT), so may want to be careful where you park, especially coming with kids. He didn't feel like eating so just had a drink, which was surprisingly really good. Came in an interesting one piece cup.

As a fan of One Piece I was looking forward to coming here. I don't know what I was expecting but…read moreit was a little disappointing for me. The cafe is small and sure it was decorated but if you compare themed cafes in Japan to this it's not that impressive at all. Unfortunately I didn't get to try the food as most of it was sold out when I went so I got Robins drink which was recommended by the staff. The pricing seemed decent for most of the items. It was sweet but very watered down, to me it tasted like a grape propel drink....not my favorite. I noticed a lot of the drinks were premade into cups already. I don't know how I feel about that as the freshness aspect isn't there but maybe they were slammed when they first opened and that was the best way they could get peoples drinks out. The souvenir cup was a nice touch but I personally wouldn't come here again.

You are 100 PERCENT going here for the aesthetics, decor, and the dining experience. Unfortunately,…read morelike most of the other food that I've tried at Universal, the quality is pretty mid and standard all the way through. Definitely make a reservation to ensure that you can speedily go in and order, grab, a seat and get your food ready ASAP so that you can enjoy the rest of your time at the theme park. You can do this through the Universal Studios app and it's pretty straightforward. There's a grace period, as with most reservations, and unlike Disney, they don't charge your card if you're a no show (at least I don't think they do). My group went during Fan Fest nights and the reservation made a faster check in than what I think usually goes on (there was a line and the restaurant was packed, but we were able to get a seat and our food in decent timing). I let the staff know that I had a reservation, was promptly instructed to go to the cashier to order, worker was super patient and friendly, got in our order, was given a buzzer, then checked in with the front of house staff to be seated at a table, food came out first and then one of our drinks that took a bit longer. Pretty seamless and they're great at accommodating their guests and making sure things run smoothly. Hands down, breathtaking experience and amazing attention to decor the entire visit. There's Chef Toad cooking in the queue, the back drop area of the cashiers was cool, and the dining room area is incredibly impressive. Each wall has panel screens showing what's going on in Mushroom Kingdom from the Toads having fun and hanging out and when the big bad swoops in and causes havoc (which I think is synced to the other screens throughout since they don't show the same scene for each one). For our visit, we got the: 1) Super Star Lemon Squash: -This is a standard honey lemon soda with mango stars and tropical boba. 2) Yoshi's Blueberry Ube Smoothie: -This is a Fan Fest limited menu item and not really a flavor I'd go for but I figure I would since it's the most unique (though thinking of it, I really should have done apple melon, but somehow it didn't click). -Very cute, comes with whipped cream on top and some flavored drizzle, a sprig of mint and it's in a Yoshi cup. -Extremely BIZARRE taste. Not sure why but it tasted like coconut (probably the ube) banana with specifically grape Nerds. Maybe it's just my taste buds. It wasn't bad, and someone at our table said it was good (another said it was gross because it was too sweet), but it's not something I would like normally so I was powering through it. 4) Super Mushroom Soup -Comes with the classic toadstool red mushroom plastic bowl and lid. They even give you a power up block to store it in and the characters you meet also use it as a point of interaction. Very cute. -I like that the soup came in it's own little aluminum container so it doesn't sauce up and stain the bowl. Very nice! -Soup has some mushroom crackers on top, resembling the red toadstool mushroom. Very cute. Decent creamy mushroom soup. Not the biggest serving but hits the spot on a chilly night. 5) Bowser's Fireball Challenge: -Heard good things about this from someone who went to the Orlando park. You can also pay an extra $10 to keep the souvenir bowl. Since it was sauced up, we asked staff and we got a completely new one in a box and in a Super Nintendo World bag. Quality customer service and glad we didn't have to wash it out. -It's a huge meatball with mozzarella cheese and mushroom marinara sauce. Bowser puff pastry on top, brings together the look and adds a bit of carbs. Definitely mix in the hot sauce and marinara together. -Simple dish, but easy to eat and the sauce went great with the fries from the Mario burger another friend ordered. And since my boyfriend was dying from the long day and the longer night ahead, he got himself a hot coffee. Standard hot black coffee but it came in a cute cup. Not the finest dining out there, but the experience alone is worth it. This is what themed dining should be like. As a consistent Disney goer, I feel like Disney tries, but it still always feels like I'm still in a theme park (even in Galaxy's Edge), so it's either the IP or the actual attention to detail and stage set that truly blew me away here. I'd come back for sure.

Orders are taken when you arrive at the front counter, you pay and then someone seats your party. I was with a huge group. Made a reservation. They won't let you come early so don't try. The area it is in is very far from the park entrance so keep that in mind when planning. I ordered the short rib and it was awesome. Everyone loved their meals - even the picky ones. The specialty boba drink was great and unique. Very sweet and yummy. Would come here again in a heartbeat. For theme park food it is bomb! Like rainforest cafe they play a little clip on the "windows" of the restaurant every 15 minutes with thunder and stuff. The video is of Bowser invading and all the little toadstool dudes get scared and run away. It's very cute. The rest of the time the windows play toads just walking around being happy.

Such a cool and fun experience! Central Perk is not just your typical coffee shop. They have the…read moreusual coffee, tea, and hot cocoa as well as a bunch of themed drinks named after the Friends cast. I got the Chandler (which was like a caramel macchiato with hazelnut instead of vanilla) and it was so good. They have a nice variety of sandwiches and salads in the cold case as well as hot items you can buy as well (pizza and hot sandwiches) I got a turkey sandwich which was good and my son got the grilled chicken pesto which he really liked. The staff was great and we got our food and drinks really quickly. Loved that the seating and surrounding areas are just like being on the set of Friends. Plus they have a store with lots of fun souvenirs (mugs, shirts, and even frames based after the iconic framed dorr peep hole). You can only access if you take one of the Warner Bros tours. We had the deluxe tour which included lunch at Central Perk (which included any main in the menu, a side/including bakery item, and a drink/ any drink, any size). We felt it was a great deal and the food, drinks, and bakery items were all very tasty. Such a fun, different way to spend a Saturday afternoon!

This is a nice Friends-themed cafe which is a pit stop made during the Warner Brothers Studio Tour,…read morebefore viewing one of the exhibits. It's definitely a tourist trap, but if you're a Friends fiend, this is the place for you. There's plenty of photo-ops - Joey and Chandler's apartment with the foosball table and BarcaLoungers, the Central Perk bar and couches, and Monica's kitchen. There's also a gift shop which had surprisingly reasonably priced items. The cafe itself has grab-and-go items as well as hot food items like pizza for sale. They have drinks named after the characters, but everything is pricey (tourist trap alert). I'm not a coffee drinker, but I had to partake in the "Central Perk" rite of passage, so I ordered the chocolate ice-blend drink (~$8 after tax), which is a pretty steep price for a drink that's essentially chocolate milk. For some reason, my order got lost in their system, so I was waiting and waiting for my name to be called. After approaching the counter and asking, they made it right away. They don't serve the drinks in the signature large coffee cups (but the cups are available at the gift shop), so I'd say you can skip the overpriced coffee and go straight for the photo ops (which are free/included in the price of admission).

This little cafe makes some of the best lattes around, and all for extremely fair prices!! They have the most alternative milk options I've seen which is perfect for lactose-free girlies like me. They also have a WIDE range of Matcha drinks beyond just a basic latte with flavoring. Their matcha is a vibrant, rich ceremonial grade. The vibe is pleasant and bright, with lots of seating options and great music. Not too loud, not too quiet. Koffeeski has a parking lot that it shares with other businesses. In the morning, it is extremely easy to park at. If the parking lot is full (usually in the evening), there is safe and easy free street parking around the corner in the neighborhoods.

While they have a small lot in the front, parking is easier to find 1-3 blocks away, either paid or in the residential area where it's more plentiful. At the time of visit, a gentleman had taken my order, and it was a rather plain and unwelcoming experience. I had my usual iced latte. When asked about receipts, I mentioned that it was okay but was keying in my information for the Rewards Program. After making the drink, he nonchalantly looked at the tablet and CANCELLED my information, then made eye contact with me - rude! What's the saving grace of this place? The espresso for sure. The iced latte is one that I'd rank fairly highly in my list of Ktown cafes. It's a fairly minimalist spot with Wi-Fi and comfortable decor. The benches are lightweight and will move if you're not too careful, barely on the narrower end, too. If you visit, may you never have to deal with the service by this gentleman with the earrings - utterly horrid.

It's honestly one of those places that never disappoints and is always worth visiting when you're in LA. Even on a weekday which I feel most ppl wouldn't expect. The staff is great, but one tip: order both of your drinks right at the beginning of the show. Once the comedians come out, service can slow down a bit, and you'll definitely want your drinks ready so you can just sit back and enjoy. I come here at least a few times a month and it's always worth it however because I come often I sometimes wish they didn't always have a 2 drink minimum.

The sound system could use improving as well. When the comedian gets loud the sound got staticky at times. Overall, it gets the job done but don't have high expectations.
