    amazing place!
    Rosemary T.

    I love claw places like this that allows you to trade up! The place also has guarantee wins based on your spend which is amazing for kids! The owner knows my daughter keeps loosing so he gave her a few more coins to help her out. A place like this should have a nice owner who wands you to win! Every Friday they switch out the toys so the fun keeps coming. I would definitely come back here again!

    It's a cute little place to play arcade games. We like the prizes and I liked how we can get a guaranteed prize when you buy a certain amount of tokens.

    Love the various items they have for sale and the token-prize machines. Staff were friendly and nice. Ambiance is bright, airy and inviting. We"ll definitely be back!

    This store is super kawaii as what the name implies. The machines are brightly lit and you are actually guaranteed prizes if you spend 20+. The owner understands how hard claw machines are and actually explains you the concept behind claw machines and why they are difficult to win prizes. The prizes here also look pretty authentic compared to other stores. There's also a selection of blind boxes you can buy in the back of the store if you are looking for something else.

    More claw machines! Ranges from keychains to medium sized plushies.

    Super cute store! There's a good selection of claw machines with signage saying it's easy, medium, or hard. There's also a point system if you decide to trade up plushies on the same day. Attendant explains it all and is super patient. Lots of cute blind boxes and merch for purchase too! We just stopped in for a quick visit but will be back again to try our luck at a few claw machines.

    This place is super cute!! I went here randomly with my friends and Victoria was super sweet and patient with us explaining the token prices, point system and how they work with the guarantee prize. The prizes here are also cute. They have sanrio, chikawa and a lot of capybara stuff! They also have a section in the back of all blind boxes :)

    Came here after dinner with my friends and this place is definitely a must visit!!! I'll definitely be back here again soon especially since Victoria is so nice!! The atmosphere here and vibes are spectacular! If you guys are in the area and are looking for something to do definitely come here!! :)

    First time here. We had a great time. The employee was super friendly and even showed my nieces how to win and they had loved it.

    My daughter loves this place. It prizes are cute and I like it that they have the guarantee win. Although the prizes are pretty easy to win, the guaranteed prizes is still good. The staff is friendly, she would help us fluff up the prizes to make it easier to grab.

    This place is sooooo fun! You're guaranteed to win based off their system. The worker Victoria is soooo sweet. Would definitely recommend you go with your friends.

    Had a blast tonight on date night! We were on a winning streak and got to trade up for a pop mart blind box.

    Looking for a fun, cute spot to hang out with your friends?! Kawaii House is the place to be! Shout out Victoria for making my experience so much more enjoyable! The variety in blind boxes, plushies, and claw machines are too good! Not to mention how inexpensive it is too!

    owner " luck and skill" this is kawaii klaws with no help. Your "guaranteed prizes" says it all.
    Kathy N.

    We would like to respond to the owner. We understand crane games involve both luck and skill, but when we visit other arcades, we typically walk away with 10-12 prizes. ( kawaii klaws in picture witj no help ) In this case, the experience was very different. The existence of a "guarantee" policy suggests the machines are set to be extremely difficult, with low chances of winning through normal play. Customers don't come to crane arcades expecting consolation prizes -- they come to enjoy the challenge and win directly from the machines. Unfortunately, that wasn't our experience here.

They have a great variety, and the claw isn't weak, although it did take a few times on some machines to get a winning, I think that could be from the prize being a little heavy. Overall, I think the price is good a dollar per try, they had good music going on, a good amount of customers in there, even though it's in a mall that's slowly closing down. Me and my daughter had a great time, we probably spent over an hour there.

This is located within the Westminster mall, on the second floor occupying a pretty large space. I came to this location because the Groupon I had only worked here and not at the Alhambra location. The worker at the location was nice and took care of my Groupon. She gave us a basket for our tokens. She mentioned that this is probably the largest Kawaii Klaws location out of all the another areas. There are easily 30+ different claw machines in this location. There was enough variety in plushies among the machines, but I wish they had more as there were a lot of commonalities among Sanrio and a lot of bunny inspired plushies. We left with 4 plushies on this visit, the staff working their was friendly and she said she loved my bf's and my energy which I thought was so lovely of her to mention...I asked her name but forgot but she was really sweet. If you're looking for a place to kill time and want to try and score some cute plushies this is the place!

While making some plans with the nieces in OC we had to make the trip just to check it out! The place was a lil smaller than I expected. I did like the selection of prizes. Each game was 1 token. This arcade is staffed. They have trade in prizes. I do want to give the staff a shoutout as my niece constantly gets teased for being horrible at these crane games. The staff was kind enough to rearrange the prizes for a "for sure win", but niece was able to mess that up. lol The staff came back and assisted one more time. They were awesome and would definitely visit again if we're in the area. oh! I also realized they had a 1 year anniversary recently, Congrats! Parking: medium private lot VERDICT: Rinse and repeat

    Wanted to do something fun with the kid and remembered there was a video I saw about OkiDoki…read more Having no idea what an OkiDoki was or is, we headed over there on a Sunday and happened to be there when they opened. Place is much smaller than some may think, it's just a small shop but it has cranes around the walls and a few in the middle. The thing is that this is not what makes this place so great. The prizes were crazy fun, when we came in there were Pokemon all over with some random anime keychains in the smaller machines. I was told that they change out all of their prizes weekly making the return visit even more exciting. Prices are reasonable, $1 a token with extra tokens given the more you buy. Still not even what makes this place so great. In our opinion, what made this place so great is the customer service which we found to be so incredibly nice and accommodating. Like 180 deg difference from some of the bowling places or arcades in the area where the employees make you feel like you are totally bugging them and if they are personally paying for the prizes. They will help you out, talk to you about crane fun and ultimately they seem so relaxed and having fun with you. Got a bunch of prizes, some of which I will happily be donating to my Pokemon community ambassadors for kids but the Umbreon and Cubone are absolutely mine. What's an OkiDoki? I don't think this term will ever have a definition other than "Crane Fun" for me and my kid moving forward. Will absolutely, absolutely, for sure be back. Rarely offer five stars, this place and the people within well deserve it.

Thrill It is a fun little spot for kiddos - depending on how busy it is though - can be a hit or miss. Luckily, the place wasn't as packed when we stopped by. Prices are decent - you can pay per activity, or buy the Thrill Pass for $29 - which includes one of each of the activities they have, as well as either Arcade bucks, or Claw Zone tokens - I opted for the latter, since it gives me something to do while the nephews play. The claw machines are such a scam, lol. I get that they have to make money - and can't just give stuff away, but the claws barely have any grip! The prizes are pretty awesome, though - I wanted both a stuffed Yoshi and stuffed Pikachu... Anyway, nephews left happy - and we finished up with everything with just a few minutes to spare to make it over to our movie.
