food: the soosoo matcha was very flavorful and really strong, especially for matcha lovers. however, the matcha overpowered the sweet corn so it was very hard to taste the sweet corn flavoring. the soosoo latte had really strong taste of coffee even though it was decaf option and the corn ice cream was really tasty. it was almost like an actual corn shell on the outside with the inside being the creamy corn. however i couldn't quite taste the sweet corn. ambiance: lots of warm lighting with very cute decor and free harucake stickers. very good spot to hangout out with friends especially when they have a printable photo machine! not that many seating however so seats could fill up fast! service: the service was very fast with no wait for a thursday at 4pm. the server was super friendly and gave lots of good recommendations about the cakes and drinks, even sharing there was a decaf drink option!
The soosoo latte is delicious, every single time. They make the best corn flavored coffee. The right amount of sweetness and a strong coffee. I love coming here for their little photo booth. It's so cute to have a coffee and leave with a little free souvenir. They make the cutest little cakes, it's $34 each. Parking is terrible, it is valet only but sometimes the valet guy will let you park to quickly go in.
I've been hear before but this time I decided to try their drinks. I ordered the SooSoo latte and it was pretty good. It wasn't too sweet or bitter. My only thing was the cup size was pretty small for the size. It was maybe 5 sips before it was just filled with ice. Staff were super friendly and nice!
OMG! SUPER CUTE Korean cafe!! But so expensive at $14 per slice of cake! Yes, you read that right. Per SLICE. And yet, I still enjoyed my experience and I'm glad I tried it! The cakes are all SO pretty and SOOOO cute!! The whole cafe is Instagrammable. My friend and I shared the following slices: - Mugwort Injeolmi: unique, earthy, and delicious! Great texture! Highly recommend trying this one if they have it. Tends to sell out. - Green Grape Yogurt: tasted fresh but too sour and tart for me - Chocolate Earl Grey: yum! my favorite slice! If you like earl grey, get this one!! - Pure Milk Cream: I got this for my daughter because it was SO irresistably cute with the dog picture on top but the flavor was just okay and tasted like any other Korean milk cream cloud cake. Soosoo Latte: I tried this latte iced but the corn flavor was a little too subtle for me. I prefer a stronger corn flavor. Super cute though with the mini corn floating on top. But my favorite thing here was the... **Dubai Mochi Ball**!! DEFINITELY try this! This was the best thing there, better than all the cakes in my opinion. Especially if you're a textural eater, you will definitely enjoy this. The slightly bitter chocolate powder on the outside with the chewy mochi and the crispy phyllo dough interior was seriously the best combination! Let it sit for 30 minutes at room temperature before eating or alternatively, you can microwave it for 3-5 seconds. OMG. SO GOOD! They also have a free little photo booth on the side that prints out paper photos in black and white. So fun and cute! Parking: valet in plaza or street parking
Super cute korean cafe! I loved the minimalist aesthetic of the cafe. Each table had a small lamp that added to the ambience. There was upbeat guitar music playing while I was there. This cafe is definitely on the pricier side with each cake slice being $13-14 and the matcha einspanner costing $9. I decided to get the pure milk cream cake slice to go with my matcha einspanner. I would give the pure milk cream cake a 3/5. The cake wasn't very sweet but it also lacked any distinct flavor. I was hoping for a milkier taste because of the name but it honestly just tasted like plain whipped cream. The cake was also on the denser side despite being moist. For $13 a slice I was expecting more. I couldn't finish the slice since the cream felt very heavy as I continued to eat it. I would rate the Matcha Einspanner a 4.5/5. Each cup of matcha is hands whisked by the baristas. The drink is a very vibrant green color, which I love to see. It's very creamy and nutty, it's only slightly bitter. The baristas did a good job preparing the matcha, it wasn't grainy at all. The only reason I didn't give it a 5 was because it was $9, a little steep for a cup of matcha in ktown. The flavor is on par with other cafes in the area. Koreatown has an abundance of cute cafes and places for you to get matcha. I won't be craving the matcha from here, but i am interested in trying the other cakes here, maybe I chose the wrong slice to try.
Went to grab a New Year's Eve cake - and of course they were all sold out of the mugwort ... and all their normal cakes. However, they did sell a roulette style cake situation where you pay for a cake and you get a random cake. I was already here and drenched from the rain so figured to give it a shot. Ended up with a biscoff type cake. Was really good! Definitely will plan ahead next time for holidays.
TLDR: super cute cafe, photobooth thing, overpriced, scone is not good I got a lemon earl grey scone and the scone was flavorless with all the flavor coming from the meager glaze on top. The cream is high quality but is just whipped cream with a scant amount of vanilla extract. No sweetness, no lemon or earl grey flavor.
3/20/2026 1 Star taken off for valet parking. High prices of cakes and other pastries. First time at Harucake! Queued this place for awhile now! MUGWORT INJEOLMI Very subtle mugwort flavor and injeolmi flavor. Cake itself was light and not too sweet. There were bits of mochi balls inside, which reminded me of mugwort rice cake and injeolmi rice cake. Crunchy topping was good and had that buttery nutty flavor that did taste a bit like injeolmi cake. The flavors together brought this nuttiness to the cake as a whole. I love how they incorporated both beloved rice cake flavors into one cake! Wish the mugwort and injeolmi flavors were stronger to make a statement. I felt it was neither here nor there. I could taste both flavors, but still very subtle, reaching flavors. If it had stronger flavors of both, I think it could be such a unique and fun cake to eat! BISCOFF MOCHA Very good! Biscoff flavor all around! This is for the biscoff lover! The mocha cake had a light mocha flavor and complemented the biscoff cream. The cake was soft and fluffy, cloudlike! The outer chocolate coating was really good with the cake. The biscoff flavor is big in this cake! It is exactly what I thought a biscoff cake would taste like! Very well done! Enjoyed every bite! I would order a whole cake for a special occasion! GREEN GRAPE YOGURT Beautiful vanilla sponge. Fluffy, cloudlike and light in texture. Just dreamy! Cream tastes like light plain yogurt and a bit lemony in flavor. Still, very light and subtle in flavor for both. Green grapes are fresh and had that juicy fresh crunch. I guess the fresh green grapes stand out the most because that is the main texture. However, I wasn't a fan. I appreciated the cake, but wouldn't order it again. PURE MILK CREAM The vanilla sponge was good, fluffy, but the Green Grape Yogurt cake had the best vanilla spongecake out of all the cakes I've tried. Still, very good texture. Vanilla cream was creamy in flavor. It had an extra milk creaminess in flavor. I couldn't quite place it though. Just more creamy milk flavor, not whipped cream flavor. However, that is the main flavor, so it may not be for everyone. CHOCOLATE EARL GREY Three slices of cake were in one box, so this cake got smushed on the side. Cake was a light cocoa and Earl Grey flavor. Chocolate pearls throughout the cake which brings a chocolatey crispy crunch with each bite. The outer Earl Grey cream does have that Earl Grey flavor. However, it did taste too milky in flavor. Wish it had slightly less cream. I think the inside cream may be the same as the outside, but due to the chocolate pearls and Earl Grey sponge cake, I felt the Earl Grey flavor was more prominent. This cake slowly started deteriorating due to lots of cream and chocolate pearls. So please eat the cakes as quickly as possible. I ate it within 24 hrs. which is a long time for a fresh cream cake to be sitting in the fridge. Still, the fresh cream was still fresh and light in texture. It was good, but wished there wasn't any chocolate pearls in it. The texture was a nice addition, but still would have preferred without it. EGG TART This was eaten the day after, stored in the fridge. I ate it slightly at room temperature, although the custard was still cold. The outer layers were still flaky and a bit crispy, given I ate it the day after. The custard had a good vanilla bean flavor and did not taste eggy at all. I liked the overall flavor, but still I recommend the cakes over the egg tart. NUROONG LATTE Could not taste the nuroong flavor. Only the crunchy toasted rice on top added the toasted rice flavor to the coffee. I would not get this again. It was not what I thought it would be. My favorite cake: Biscoff Mocha I think the biggest shock is that the cakes are all expensive! It was $13-$14 per slice! The egg tart was $7.5! I rarely mention prices on reviews, but I had to on this one. It is absolutely ridiculous. But had to try it! I think this may be why there are so many mixed reviews. CUSTOMER SERVICE It was good. They were getting busy yet they did their best to smile and give good service to customers. AMBIANCE / SEATS It is a cute place. The space is much bigger in person. Quite a bit of tables and seats and a clean bathroom too! PARKING As always, parking in LA is pure hell. So when Harucake's strip mall offers valet parking for $3, I will take it! Street parking was too hard to find and driving around and around is just not worth it. $3 is for lunch hours. Dinner hour would go up to $5. Once you park inside Harucake's parking lot, you cannot leave the premises on foot. They will ask you to pay $15 for all day parking. Honestly, inspite of their high-priced cakes and pastries, I would return! I haven't had delicious cakes like this in a long while! I truly enjoyed trying their cakes and as a dessert lover, Harucake takes the cake, literally! I will definitely buy whole cakes for special occasions in the future.
Harucake offered a variety of cakes and drinks to choose from. We came a little later in the evening and closer to when they close the store and so there was only one flavor to choose trom which was Biscoff Mocha. It was honestly so so good and piqued my interest even more. Harucake is also and first come by basis; meaning, you can purchase per slice or the whole cake itself! Warning: they run out quick! They also have a fun free photo service station where you take a picture and it prints a b&w receipt esque picture! I'm already wanting to plan my birthday (which is in September) to have a cake from Haru! I want the standard cake which has 6 for their signature flavors!
Food Delicious cakes with Asian inspired flavors. They're not too sweet and are very light but you can easily share one slice between two adults. They also have a new Dubai chocolate mini which is delicious but not for those who prefer milk chocolate over dark. Also tried the banana matcha latte and it was a really sweet. Maybe too sweet for my tastes. Service A quick order and go shop, so there's not too much to say about service. Ambience Very cute and it reminds me of the cafes in Asia. However there is not much seating. What little seating they have is meant for small groups.
Haru Cake in Koreatown is a splurge-but worth it. We tried the Biscoff Mocha, Chocolate Earl Grey, and Banana Choco cakes. Yes, it's $14 a slice, but you can taste the quality-perfectly sweet, soft, and made with premium ingredients. The Biscoff Mocha was my favorite, but all three were excellent. The SOO SOO Latte (a corn latte) was unique and good, though the cups are on the smaller side. The café is cute with a little photo area, but seating is limited. It's a treat-yourself spot-pricey, but you'll understand why. We'll be back for more flavors- when we're ready to indulge again!
I arrived here on Wednesday morning. The cafe has a parking lot, and it wasn't busy at all, which was nice. The place is very clean and has a cozy atmosphere. I absolutely loved all the desserts on display -- they looked so tempting! I decided to try the most popular drink, the Soosoo Latte, which is made with corn coffee. It's recommended to drink it without a straw, and I'm glad I followed that suggestion. The first sip was absolutely delicious, and it instantly brightened my day. I also tried two pastries: the egg tart and the lemon Earl Grey scone. Both were incredibly tasty. The egg tart had a thick, buttery crust, which I really enjoyed, and the filling was rich and smooth. The lemon Earl Grey scone had a perfect balance of flavors -- the citrusy lemon and fragrant Earl Grey combined so well together. I'll definitely be coming back to try more of their offerings! read more
Harucake blew up on social media a couple years back for their Corn Latte, but for me, the real star has always been their cakes. In addition to being very cute, the cakes are also absolutely delicious. When I first came here, the line wrapped around the plaza and was a two hour wait to get inside. The hype has died down since then, but I still love frequenting this cute and cozy cafe. There is very minimal seating inside, but somehow, I have always managed to snag a seat. The interior is aesthetic and has chill, lowkey vibes. I enjoy coming here to have a slice of cake and bask in the melody of the cafe's acoustic playlist. My favorite cake to get is the Green Grape Yogurt Cake. The yogurt cream is tangy, unique, and addicting. I would, and have, go out of my way to have a slice of cake at Harucake. I would really like to get a bento box cake from here one day. read more

This shop is so cute and the baristas were all really friendly and kindly explain how to enjoy their latte properly and their cake ordering system. The soosoo latte tastes so good OMG, especially after the corn ice melts, you can sip up the corn skin from the drink. Imo their corn latte is slightly stronger than Series A, like you can taste more of the espresso and the sweetness and may only wanna take a sip once in a while, whereas Series A has a more mild corn flavor that will make you wanna have more. read more

The line was quite long. Mugwort cake: 10/10. - This was very good. I liked the cream of the cake. It's not too sweet! It also had bits of mochi inside the cake that was good! Green grape yogurt cake: 4/10. - I personally did not like the combo of sour yogurt taste with cake. But the actually grape was really good and crunchy with hints of sweetness. They are packed. There's a camera booth that prints out your picture. A thermal printer and it prints quick. The tables are very limited and quite small. But the concept of the place is really cute. I would definitely try other cake flavors ! read more

We ordered their holiday cake. It's so cute! Pick up was easy. We always do street parking. The cake was delicious, not too sweet. I love their cream in their cakes, it's not too heavy, it's such a light texture where you don't feel bad eating it. Their service is always great, always willing to answer your questions. read more

I love the aesthetic of this cafe. There are many drink and cake options. My friends and I got 1 slice of the milk cake and we shared it between 3 people for $14. Cake prices can definitely be expensive but are worth it if you want to try with friends. The wait was not long at all for a sunday afternoon. They also have a free photo booth you can use while you wait on line or for your food. Seating is pretty limited and cannot support large parties at one table. Looking forward to trying more cake flavors and drinks in the future. read more
This is a very cute Korean cake shop! We got there at 3pm and got the corn latte drink everyone is raving about! It has a bit of espresso but the corn flavor is strong but in a good way. We also tried the green grape yogurt cake. The frosting was fluffy, whipped and light and it had slices of grapes in each layer of the cake. I got the biscoff mocha cake and it was very sweet. I almost couldn't finish it because of how sweet it was but im glad I got to try something out of my comfort zone. The jnterior was minimalistic. There was a photoshoot section, a mirror for mirror photos and a couple of merch items on a shelf. They have certain cakes each day and for bento boxes, you have to order those in advance apparently. Something to note is that they don't have the entire menu each day so only a few select number of cakes are there for you to choose. I'm so glad I got to try this on a rainy day. Would come here again to get a bento cake!!! read more
Harucake was on my list for a while now and I'm so happy I finally got to try her out ! To start off I loved how immediately walking in there was a cute little photobooth area -- complimentary too. The shop itself is a bit small and it took a while for me and my friends to get a table (there were 4 of us). We ordered the strawberry milk, soosoo latte, banana matcha, and we shared the mugwort injeolmi signature cake. Out of all the drinks we tried my favorite was the strawberry milk drink. I was looking forward to trying the corn latte but was a bit disappointed. I am usually a huge fan of corn but felt like the corn flavor was lacking a bit... and it was kinda overpowered by the expresso. As for cakes we ordered the mugwort injeolmi cake. The mugwort injeolmi cake was SOOO yummy ! The cake flavor had earthy notes with mochi. I'm a textures girly & love how there were chewy mochi bits in the cake. If you love bean flavored things (red bean ... mung bean) you will love this. It was also not overly sweet which is perfect because most cakes are overly sweet. I would give it a 5 star if I didn't try the drinks. The drinks imo were a little bit overrated but this place is def worth the wait for their yummy quality cakes. I will 100% be back soon for the cakes & I'm so glad I finally tried out Harucake. read more
Love this place. This is definitely my top 1 coffee shop in LA. Went here twice in the same day because of their famous coffee corn or Soosoo latte. It's sooo damn good. Corn egg tart is very interesting but I really like it. It reminds me of that Filipino dessert maja blanca but in an egg tart form . Scones are so cute and so good. It's very different from regular scone because this one has cream on the middle. Highly recommend to get this! All the cakes are so pretty and I just want to order all of them. I also enjoy early grey cake, getting that again next time. The only problem in here is the parking. It's in the middle of Ktown so if you go on busy hours for sure it's hard to find parking. read more
We came when it first opened so there was no line. We loved the cute photo booth that was near the entrance. It is free! We got the injolmi mugwort cake since it was a best seller and it was perfect sweetness. There are also chunks of mochi throughout the cake and the layers make the texture amazing. I would definitely come back to try their other cake flavors. read more
i've seen cute desserts from this spot all over my feed so i was excited to give it a try while i was in the area. first mistake was coming on a saturday afternoon right before the blackpink concert (i didn't realize it was happening the day i went). the wait to order took about 40-50 mins, and the line was well out the door! a lot of items on the menu that i wanted to try were also sold out. however, that was my mistake since i did choose a super busy time to go. valet parking was also required. i think my favorite treat had to be the strawberry milk. the strawberry taste was super fresh and had a natural aroma. it had the right amount of sweetness and didn't taste artificial like many other strawberry milks that i've tried. i got a couple of other desserts including the matcha berry slice & strawberry scone. everything tasted great but the price range is definitely on the higher side, especially the cake [slices]. they're super cute though! read more

This is a review for 두쫀쿠. I'm not sure if it was because I went later in the day (around 4pm), but the 두쫀쿠 was not chewy (쫀득) like it's at all, nothing like advertised. It was actually pretty hard and much smaller than expected for $10. The flavor was good, though. Maybe old batch? We came from oc just to try this. I was raving abt it to all my friends, so it was a bit disappointing experience. I guess gotta go earlier for fresh batch :) Cute cafe, cakes are cute. Staffs could be a bit more welcoming. read more

Harucake is a cute cafe with extremely beautiful cakes and drink, but the tastes don't quite hit the mark. Expect a line, but it does move decently fast. We ordered 2 cakes, the earl grey and mugwort, and 2 drink, corn hojicha and matcha hojicha. The cakes felt a bit too heavy and the flavors were one dimensional as each element, from the sponge cake to the cream to the toppings, just felt like sweet on top of sweet on top of sweet. Perhaps, we tried the wrong cakes, but towards the end, my group of 3 grew sick of the flavor and couldn't finish. The drinks were alright - on par with other matchas and hojichas from LA cafes. Each slice of cake is $14 which I wouldn't mind paying if it tasted good. I will say the cakes are beautifully decorated, but unfortunately, beauty does not translate to tasty. For a very mediocre-tasting cake, the price is not justified. read more
I visited the shop on Saturday, and it was packed with a long line outside. I ordered a six-flavor cake set -- the cakes were incredibly soft, creamy, and delicious. However, they were quite pricey at $14 per piece. I also tried a drink called the Sosoo Latte, which came topped with a tiny corn. It was both tasty and beautifully presented. Altogether, including waiting in line and getting the cake, we waited for about an hour. read more

The cafe was really cute! They had a free receipt Photo Booth. I got the SooSoo latte which was coffee and corn cream. The coffee was good but the star of the show was the corn topping! It had the consistency of ice cream and had real corn bits inside. I also got the Mugwort Injeolmi cake. It was light, fluffy, and not too sweet. I'm not sure how to describe the taste of mugwort besides saying that it's Earthy and has a tea like taste. But it was definitely overpriced... One small slice was $14. This is definitely a sweet treat for the moments you want to treat yourself out! read more
We went around 12 PM and the line was pretty short. Parking was easy, and the shop is cute and cozy. There's a decorated photo spot inside too. It's not really a place you'd go to study, but a place to catch up with friends. The staff were super kind and patient. We tried the mugwort injeolmi cake, it was delicious and not too sweet. Definitely coming back again! read more

I've been wanting to try this cafe ever since my friend saw it trending on tiktok, and I'm so glad I finally did!! What a cozy little nook in ktown(: They are primarily known for their soosoo/corn cream drinks, but I elected for their banana cloud matcha which was light and perfectly sweet~ The matcha flavor was pretty bold, so I highly recommend! The injeolmi mugwort cake was delicious as well,, so creamy, nutty and airy (the price was a bit too steep to justify though, $14/slice). This place is tucked away in the corner of a small plaza. The parking lot out front isn't very big, but it was basically empty when I went there early on a Saturday morning. However, they do valet-only parking during certain hours which seems to be $3. There wasn't a line at the time, but I've heard about suuuper long wait times during peak hours. The staff were really friendly and the atmosphere here was so welcoming. There is also a restroom in the back. I especially love the little picture wall, which is free for patrons to add to :3 Will defs be back with some friends and family next time~~ read more

Another day, another matcha. I always enjoy the soosoo latte but love matcha more so i was super excited to try the soosoo matcha. As always, it was delicious but you do have to enjoy corn since there are corn bits inside the drink. Even after moving away from ktown, I try to stop by haru cake to grab a drink and slice of cake. read more
Fell in love with the Soosoo Latte at this cute little shop inside Korea town. The workers were nice and thought the picture taking machine inside was a nice touch! Not the cheapest place with the egg tarts costing $7.50 each but I am there for the Soosoo Corn Latte. Great blend of corn, milk and espresso taste. I am hooked! The egg tarts weren't spectacular especially for that price but it is always sold out. The cake slices are definitely not cheap either at $14 a piece and I thought they tasted only ok as well but they are beautifully decorated and an IG must! read more
- banana matcha cloud: the banana cream on top was solid on its own, but once mixed with the matcha, the banana flavor kinda disappeared. wished it stood out more, but overall not bad! - mugwort injeolmi: their best selling specialty cake. soft, not too sweet (the best compliment lol). those injeolmi rice cake bits was my fave part of the cake. when I heard harucake dropped new matcha drinks, you know I had to try it. harucake still reigns supreme with their soosoo/corn latte, so I'm already planning to come back for their soosoo matcha latte next. read more
Somehow this place makes you wait an entire 10 people drink order in front of you when you order a slice of cake which can be just taken out since its premade. Its such an inefficient system. When you're paying 33$ for 2 slices of cake and you have to wait so long just for them to take out the cake from the fridge, you probably don't want to come back. read more
As a huge fan of corn, I loved the soosoo latte! It's a corn latte -- corn ice cream, corn cream, espresso, and milk! It was perfectly sweet and creamy. The service was friendly but the wait was about 10 mins for our drink. Be wary of wait times during busier hours! This drink made it all worth, and I'm looking forward to coming back and trying other drinks! read more

Came to check out both their cake and their corn latte. This place got hyped up a lot the past few years. We got the Pure milk cream cake. It was decent. Pricey for what it was. Nothing spectacular but not terrible. I think Lady M cake layered cake is better though. Also got the the soosoo corn latte. That was pretty good. Very solid espresso flavor and strength. If I came back, it'd probably be just for the coffee. Cute lil spot though, but gotta deal with Ktown parking. read more
I'm obsessed with Harucake. It's THE spot for a little sweet treat! Cute ambiance and I love that they have a little photo section for a souvenir. But their coffee / other drinks are incredible. Their corn latte (sorry forgot the proper name) is phenomenal and one of my favorite drinks in LA. Their other drinks are just as good too! I haven't yet tried their cakes yet but they look phenomenal. If you're looking to get a cake though I'd recommend going earlier in the day as they do sell out! read more
3.5 stars for me. The place itself is located in a shared plaza with other business and very limited parking. Luckily I found parking like 2 blocks down near H Mart and walked over. The service was polite and the interior is cute / Instagram worthy. However, not much seating, especially when it gets busy. Luckily, I was able to snag a seat near the wall. Not a coffee shop to hang out for a long period of time. They sell adorable cakes and drinks. Since they have a good following on Instagram, they seem to have items on pricy side. I ordered the infamous Soo Soo latte, which I thought would be slightly sweeter because of the corn ice cream but it wasn't. I'm not a huge coffee drinker so I thought the drink was ok. Not a prominent corn flavor as I would have liked. Overall, I'm glad I got to try at least once. read more
So good. Really a gem. The inside is also as cute as the desserts themselves. Obsessed with all things kawaii and omg the level of cute and attention to details on these desserts are next level. Not only do they look adorbs but they taste amazing. Soo Soo latte- SO good. It tasted like sweet creamed corn soup whipped cream with coffee lol and maybe that sounds odd but it's delicious. The cream is so fresh and there a cute little corn shaped corn ice cream on top. Def now in my top 5 fav drinks. Mugwort Injeolmi slice - Fav! Mugwort is like an herb and injeolmi is roasted soy bean. Earthy flavors that reminded me of the warmth of like a coffee cake or cinnamon cake. Green grape yogurt slice - Would never think of combining these flavors in a cake and wow delish. The cake was a light lemon flavor, the filling inside was yogurt cream with the grapes. So good and unique. I also tried a black Americano... wouldn't go with that. It wasn't bad but if you like Americanos typically I would pass as it had a very light flavor. Will def be back any time I'm in Koreatown. Prices are higher than usual for some things (cake slice $14) but they use organic milk and once you see and taste the quality the price is def worth it. read more

Harucake has been on my radar since I've seen it pop up on Tiktok and since I was in the area hanging out with a friend, I had to try it! We waited around 30 minutes to get inside and order. It went by quick, but the wait was long to get our drinks and cake too. It was such a cute aesthetic inside. They had cute merch and a photo booth where you're able to take instant photos. I do wish there were more seats and chairs inside because it can get crowded with people waiting inside for their order. We decided to order their SooSoo Latte, Honey Einspanner, and Strawberry Milk Cream Cake. SooSoo Latte- 3/5: Had to try it since it is the most popular drink. Cute presentation with the little corn ice cream. I thought it would be sweeter with the ice cream and corn cream. It did have some texture from the corn kernels. I love my coffee drinks sweeter so, this did not hit the spot for me. I would recommend trying it since it is something different to give it a shot. Honey Einspanner- 3/5: My boyfriend did enjoy this more then the SooSoo Latte. Tastes like Vietnamese coffee with extra cream. Strawberry Milk Cream Cake- 3/5: Honestly wished I enjoyed this more especially since it is $14/slice. All the cakes looked incredibly yummy on display, but the taste was just ok... I wish the cakes were more moist and the fruits weren't sweet either. Overall, for the wait and the price, I don't think I would come back especially since what I got wasn't amazing. Maybe I give it a shot next time if friends want to come try it for the first time, but I'll probably order something different instead. read more
Harucake went viral online so we had to pop in to try the soosoo latte! The parking situation can be difficult if you come on the weekends, but there is street parking and a few lots if you're lucky. The interior is very cute and clean; there is virtually no seating though. The seating is very limited and does not look comfortable. The employees were all very kind and sweet. We ordered the soosoo latte and I LOVED it! It was creamy, had slight corn taste and good espresso. The prices for the desserts are quite high but I guess that is typical for LA. Would definitely be back and want to try their cakes next time! read more
Wow a place in ktown where you can get some good quality desserts, cakes and coffee. I visited this place after some tiktok videos and was curious about their cakes. Expectations were low because how can cake be better than any typical cake out there? Definitely was wrong. The cakes here are not just pretty but they are some delicious cakes that you can get in ktown. They open early but cake slices can only be purchased after 12pm! They offer so many different kinds of cakes it was very hard to choose but if you go with one of the signature ones, you can't go wrong. Recommended Cakes: $14 a slice -Injeolmi cake 9.5/10 (so delicious and light and everything that I want in a cake) -Strawberry Cake 7.5/10 (good but taste like any other strawberry cake) You can order whole size cakes online and pick up for around $84 Got their honey einspanner, which was also really good too! Definitely will be back and will be getting the cakes on special occasions! The workers are so nice and inside there are limited seats and tables, but it is a really nice aesthetic to the café read more

This is a little tucked away gem right in the heart of town. The vibes are very much taken straight from places like Tokyo, while very minimal it's also very cool. The shop is very small without much seating or natural lighting, however you make up for that they have a lot of cool spaces for photo ops including a camera for guests to use. I ordered both the soosoo latte and soosoo matcha which are both corn based and really delicious. The corn flavor balances out really well in the latte, and while the matcha is tasty I feel like without the corn flavored cream the matcha is a little too intense. The drinks came out really fast and everyone was really chill and helpful. Definitely will be back read more

I've visited this place a few times for coffee, have to say that the staffs here are often unfriendly and don't acknowledge you until you order. Today, I came to pick up a cake I ordered online. I saw at least five staffs member there, but I had to wait for them to notice me. The young lady stamping the logo right at the front, didn't make eye contact or greet me. I approached the cashier and have to ask them that I'm here to pick up my cake and order my coffee. At least that lady who helped me she was friendly! She brought out my cake, explaining how to drink my Soo Soo Latte, which other staff members hadn't done! which make up another star for my review today! Your drinks and cakes are great, but the staff should acknowledge customers more. A welcoming attitude is important. We love your drinks and cakes and we are willing to pay the prices(even the price is quite pricey), but a better customer experience would make a big difference. Just sharing my opinion--still love your business and hope to see improvements in this area. read more

Very cute little dessert spot. Cute candle display, cute minimalist decor and cute cakes. Love the drink except I prefer without soda on mango yuzu aid. Tried this place out, parking had to be valet $3 for lunch and $5 for dinner. Not too convenience read more
Wow the hype is real for so so latte. I got it with whole milk and it was out of this world! I can say it was the best corn cream latte I've had in my life. Perfect sweetness, well balanced, and you can taste and chew corn kernels in your coffee. However, strawberry milk for my mom was too sweet. A slice of strawberry milk cream cake was good but a bit pricey for me tbh. I would give 1000000/10 for so so latte only but for everything I gave 8/10 read more

i've been wanting to try this place for a while and it did not disappoint! free parking lot until 11am, then it's valet. went on a wednesday morning and it wasn't busy. pretty limited seating so would mainly come here to grab n go. they also have a cute camera that prints paper photos (for free) that you can stick on the wall or keep -soosoo latte (4/5): good flavor and good balance of coffee and corn! there's also some corn bits in the drink overall, super cute cafe with good drinks and an interesting menu. would come back to try their other drinks and their scones/cakes. i knocked down a star since it was pricey read more
The cake here is awesome $14 for most slices. A little pricey to me who suffers from need money syndrome but it's good quality. Service is friendly and ambiance is wonderful. Really good decor and music also the dog drawings they have around are adorable. Valet parking most of the time but the first time we went I think they just forgot or something. Street parking isn't too bad. I went here with my buddies after finishing our last exam and it was cool. I also went here with my sibling after our dog died (not cool). The dog mascot made me cry in the bathroom a lil. Alas the sorrows...at least there is cake read more
8/10 - Mugwort & Injeolmi Cake Came on a Saturday and enjoyed a slice of the mugwort and injeolmi cake! While it was delicious, the price was a bit steeper than I anticipated. Definitely not an every day purchase, but nice for a treat yourself day. Service was kind, but took a little bit due to the long lines. Overall aesthetic of the store was super pleasing! read more
I was flabbergasted with this place. From the vibes, to the drinks, and above all, the cakes. They took me back to Japan the moment I took my first bite. First, parking can be challenging since they're located in a plaza alongside other businesses and restos. Mornings should not be busy yet, though. Valet is available for your convenience. Second, mornings/weekdays are the best time to visit. Expect a long line and wait on weekends. Next, customer service. You won't get the happy/energetic welcome. People are chill and steady but that's just how they are. They're nice, accomodating and will answer any questions you may have. Now the vibes are giving typical Japan aesthetics. The simple modern, cute and minimalist designs of both their interiors and their products capture the customers' hearts! And of course, their cakes and drinks. Yes, they may be on the pricey side but as what they say, they take pride on the quality of their ingredients and their love for their craft. I'm in love! Can't wait to try all the other cake flavors. So far, my faves are the green grape yogurt and strawberry milk cream cake. As for the drinks, i'm a matcha girly but this time, it's the soosoo latte for me. read more

Cute little cafe. Very IG worthy with simple and minimalistic decor. Our matcha drinks were exceptional. I usually go for simple and plain matcha, (no sweetener) but I tasted the strawberry matcha and will definitely order that drink the next time! There was a steady flow of patrons but the staff was efficient and got us our drinks in a timely manner. This will be on my regular stops when I come into K-town. read more
