    Hands down, this is the best crane game spot I've been to in terms of value. They make it easy to win, and I can confirm this place has strong claws. I ended up buying $20 worth of credits (23 tokens) and went home with 15 prizes, meaning I won on almost every crane, with only a few extra tries needed on some of the harder, smaller machines. This was easily my largest haul from any crane game, so the claws are definitely fair. As for the prizes, they were pretty decent. I walked away with a full set of Minecraft characters, some Pokémon, and a few other fun items. The trade-up prizes weren't the best from what I saw, and the place itself is fairly small, but I really appreciated how helpful the staff was. They moved a few plushies to make things easier and even gave us a take home bag after we purchased tokens, almost like they knew we were going to win a lot.

    Amazing claw machine spot! I've been to a couple and this was my first time at OkiDoki and wow, some of the other shops might need to step it up a bit! Service was AMAZING. They were so helpful, attentive, and just so genuine with their service. It never felt like I was bothering them and they were always so good with just stepping in themselves to help without being asked. I spotted the workers helping out people who were struggling to win. This is the kind of place where you definitely leave happy and satisfied. I don't think I saw anyone leave empty handed! Lots of variety in claw machines and very cool that they also had a bunch of gachapon machines! Also so fun to see a machine with pokemon cards too! I definitely made an attempt, but failed lmao. I love that you can even swap out your gachapon if you get one that you didn't want ! I was shook. Definitely will return! Love that it's next to a bunch of other great shops too like Happy Lemon and Airoma Cafe, very convenient to play some claw games and then get a nice drink after.

    Okie Dokie Cranes is hands down the best in OC. My daughter has a broken arm and still won so many prizes. She especially loves being able to trade plushies up for bigger ones, even a Labubu. She leveled up to her second Labubu here and was so happy. We love coming as a family and actually winning prizes together, unlike other places. Highly recommend!

    Stopped by while I was in the plaza, and I'm really glad I did. The staff are incredibly friendly and genuinely seem to care about making sure customers have a great experience, something that feels rare these days. I'd happily come back.

    first time here and the worker dennis was so nice and chill. he helped us get the plushies we wanted. we ended up walking out with 2 mini labubus and 10 plushies. we're definitely going to be coming back soon :)

    We've been to a lot of claw machine places and this is honestly one of the few that doesn't feel impossible or rigged. The workers here are super friendly and patient with the kids, and they actually seem happy to help instead of just watching everyone lose money lol. The machines are surprisingly fair too... my kids were winning pretty consistently and didn't leave frustrated. We usually do the $100 package for 125 plays for our three kids, and every single time we leave with way more than $100 worth of plushies and prizes. The stuffed animals are also really cute and not the cheap tiny ones you usually see at arcades. The place is clean, bright, and organized, and the staff will even help reposition prizes sometimes or explain which machines are easier for younger kids. It's become one of our favorite family spots because the kids actually feel successful here instead of disappointed after spending a ton of money. Definitely dangerous if your kids love stuffies though because you'll run out of room at home fast

    I have become obsessed with claw machine arcades ever since my trip to Tokyo and Seoul. These have been popping up all over SoCal but I find them either too pricey per game and your money evaporates and/or it's too hard to win. Oki Doki DEFINITELY has a winning combo going on here. A good amount of machines, good deals for tokens when you buy more, and many machines with only 1 token needed for each game, even for the bigger prizes. They even have machines for pop mart blind boxes (5 tokens at the time of this review) and other ones for Sonny Angels and Mofusand cell phone figures! Staff is super friendly and helpful and even are willing to help out customers they see trying to get their favorite plush by trying to reposition certain ones. They also sell labubus and have some token and labubu deals right now along with a great selection of other accessories for labubus and other blind boxes. I left with 6 keychains and 4 bigger plushies and spent about $35. Had a great time, will definitely come back!

    My son buried in all of his plushie winnings!

    A small family owned business. Ray and his family are the most sweetest and most humble human beings ever! I always manage to win just a handful of stuff animals for my son everytime we go. You can never not walk out with nothing. Highly recommend coming to Okie Dokie Cranes if you want something to do. I would highly recommended coming here.. Guys.. Definitely take your partners here. They will love it!

    Check-in for free tokens!

    Oki Doki remains my favorite crane machine place even a year after their grand opening. Their plushie selection is curated with impeccable taste, with crowd pleasers such as Doraemon, Pokemon, Crayon Shin-Chan, and Sanrio. Labubus are available for trade up. Something I especially appreciate is the ability to trade your plushies in for tokens that you can save for another visit. This makes huge prizes such as the Angel in Clouds Zimomo actually achievable! The staff are also incredibly nice and helpful. I love Oki Doki.

    Went here on a Sunday and bought the $100 special that included coins and 1 single box of Big Into Energy Labubu. They give you 65 coins and you can play to win another Labubu or some of their really cute plushies. My kids really loved it there and we actually won another 4 plushies! Now I will have to say that when we got home we opened up the Labubu and realized it was a Lafufu. I contacted the shop right away and they were more than apologetic and urged us to come back to make it right and exchange it for a real Labubu! I was super surprised I thought we were just SOL. BUT They were so awesome how they handled this problem and my son was so happy to get a real Labubu! Their staff is fantastic and super kind. I will be coming back for sure! Oh and they sell really cute Labubu clothes! Highly recommend!

    Plushie overload! Love the variety of prize options!
    Alex U.

    We LOVE this place! We always stop by before going to KBBQ. Great location and amazing staff! Always helpful, friendly, and sharing great tips and tricks for the claws. This place gets new inventory fairly often and the plushies are quality! Love the option to switch/trade a plushie if you get one you didn't want or already have. We come here twice a month! Highly recommend!

    My Labubu gang !
    Phillip D.

    So was taken here on a first date , and was to my surprise it was fun, welcoming , inclusive and the location is cute . The staff was only helpful and knowledgeable on the games and the Labubu I now own 3 by playing the claw games and price point is really affordable and like the fact everyone really didn't leave empty handed. I would definitely recommend for kids party or date night or just to kill time .... Clean, organized, friendly and supportive staff, convenient parking , reasonably priced, kid and adult friendly. Definitely gonna be back so check them out...

    Labubu Claw Machine!
    Lucy L.

    Came here on a Friday evening at 9pm and spent $20. It was well worth it as my husband won a labubu on his first try! The staff is soo friendly and offered to reposition stuffed animals to make it easier to win. I love that they had big and small stuffed animal claw machines. I would definitely come back!

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.

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!

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.

I asked her to add a splash of blueberry since my friend had the Backwood drink, which tasted great, and I'm a fan of the blueberry lime combo. But when she brought mine out, it honestly tasted like straight water with pieces of mint. I'm not exaggerating.
