We visit every time they come back and they also had a SEGA one recently. This is located on the ground floor by Anime Jungle. Hard to miss especially since they advertise the hell out of it everywhere and there's a huge banner for it. If you're a fan of Final Fantasy, Nier, Kingdom Hearts, or even Dragon Quest, this popup is a must visit! Some of the items are released early compared to what you see online so this would be the place to get some exclusive merch! Love this place and always a fun visit. IG: @ammysalamii

They've done some high-end, prize-figure, and kawaii collectible pop up shops with some nice collectible bags and other goods, as well as always having cute displays and photo opportunities. They've hosted pop-up maid cafe's with real food being served such as the Oinky Doink Maid cafe themed and collaborated with the Akiba Maid War anime, as well as with local maid cafes, such as Dreamland Maid cafe. The venue is also used for live events, giving a fun and underground feel if you're into indie idols and the such (or if you've seen it in anime or manga). They've hosted live events for local idols/groups and even V-tubers, along with meet and greets or buppan (when you can purchase merchandise and cheki) afterwards! During these events sometimes there's a costume/cosplay contest and open karaoke too. Great small event to have fun at. The workers here are always super friendly too. Perfect event space for weeb-related activities when there isn't a con going on!

Wonderful pop-up exhibition to showcase amazing pieces inspired by mental health…read more Put on by the LA County Department of Mental Health, it really highlighted key issues in regards to mental health in the community. It was culturally sensitive and welcoming of all demographics and all ages. It takes between and hour and two to get through the whole exhibition. Light snacks and beverages were provided. Street parking or public parking available. Too bad it had a limited run.

(place close at 10) and there was no line (no online reservation is needed, a walk-in is good enough). There were a few IG worthy pieces, such as the Broken Road and the Dream Statue. Took us roughly 30 minutes to make our way thru the whole exhibit. All and All, I really love the message behind this exhibit and I would recommend this to those who are happening to be in the area. Parking was kind of an issue for us, however, we just ended up parking in some random spot behind the exhibit.

They have a lot of nick-nacks for sale, which I love! Their hats have original designs that I found tempting but had to hold off on. They also sell shirts, mugs and a variety of other sculptures. There was so much to see. I purchased a sheet of stickers for $8 and a ceramic cup I plan to use as a spoon holder went for $35 . Katie Kimmel, the artist/owner, was welcoming and engaging! She wrapped my ceramic cup in the cutest tissue paper! Overall, I enjoyed my visit and will be back again!

It makes it so much easier when you don't want to commit to just one type of food. I walked around for a bit before deciding what to get, and everything looked fresh and tempting. It's the kind of place where you can try something new every time you come back. Also great if you're with friends and everyone has different cravings. The overall vibe is lively but still comfortable, not too chaotic. It felt easy to just grab food and sit down without any stress. I'd definitely come back here when I want variety and a casual food experience without overthinking it.

Lot of vendors that have a history with the greater LA area, so it avoids the gradual rise of gentrification which can occur with most food halls and markets in the U.S. I like the open air concept where you can just chill inside or outside and enjoy some good food or brews. You could easily hang out here for several hours, but I had a busy day so that couldn't happen for me. Because I was walking distance, it was a must visit. Not sure if I'd drive into here, but do visit if you can get there via public transport.

They were offering free samples of the vanilla rose screamer flavor. It was so smooth and delicious! Very sweet. My husband bought a cup of that and I wanted to try the lavender screamer flavor. I'm glad I bought a cup of the lavender screamer flavor! It was so yummy! Loved the sweetness level and it was a strong or overpowering coffee taste. It was smooth and delightful. Service was great.

This is my first time trying these dubai chocolate pistachio strawberry cups and I would say…read morethey're a good sweet treat. However the flavor combination in my general opinion to this type of food is missed as you don't really taste all the flavors together well I mostly just taste the chocolate. However for this place the strawberries they chose and cut look and smell incredible. They were juicy. They even use gel ice packs to keep it fresh and I like that they keep it in a zip lock bag so that it doesn't directly touch the strawberries. The kataifi they use is amazing. The texture its absolute crispy crunchy perfection. Their proportions were very fair with the amount of chocolate, pistachio and knafee they put. I was able to coat the strawberries no problem. Parking here is good street or private lot. I would advise them to invest and get a bigger melting pot, we waited awhile when they had their long line for their free sample day. That was understandable though since there was a long line of people and only one person was working at a time. I know it's to help advertise them but for future business I would advise like an assembly line so that the process could go by faster if they have a line. Overall yummy and pleased. Also very cool how they are on uber eats and door dash. Also from what i've seen around fair prices

Every rack feels intentional, lived in, and full of personality. Nothing feels random. Each item has a story, and you can sense it the moment you start browsing. The bag selection alone is worth the stop. There are so many standout pieces that feel like true finds, not just resale. The kind of bags you don't see twice. What really makes this place special is the owner, Melynda. She's genuinely fun to talk to and clearly passionate about what she curates. You can tell there's pride and care behind every piece in the shop. Talking with her about vintage fashion and the stories behind the items made the experience feel personal, not transactional. This ended up being one of the coolest spots I stumbled into in the fashion district. If you appreciate vintage that feels curated and soulful rather than picked over, Quirk is a must.
