This store is a small business owned by a woman who is trying to improve the environment. This store is located in small shop. Parking is street parking or small fenced in lot in back. They offered delivery and will bring your order to your car during Covid lockdown. I also was impressed that they had you wash your hands when you enter the store along with requiring masks. The staff was knowledgeable and answered my numerous questions. I met the owner and manager, both were very nice. You can buy or bring your own container to fill. I needed hand soap today, so I brought a big plastic jug and filled it with lavender and tea tree hand soap. The store sells many things to help you leave less trash. I hope to be more thoughtful with my use of single use plastics.

grapefruit mint shampoo from atwater farmers market
carolyn p.

this is a review of their atwater farmers market booth only since i haven't been to the brick and mortar spot yet. it's super convenient to be able to go to my regular farmers market and get staples like hand soap, shampoo and conditioner (EO brand). they also have laundry, dishwashing detergent, resuable straws, and more. they sell refillable glass bottles, but you can also bring your own. the only thing is the i hope their prices will go down eventually when they get more business. frankly, i normally buy less expensive products that aren't anymore toxic than EO products, so i am definitely paying quite a bit more to refill. refilling should be incentivized with lower prices. i'll still support businesses like this one as frequently as i can!

What an amazing resource for those looking to reduce their impact on the environment/other living beings. I came in looking for a zero waste alternative to my shaving routine. What I found was this gorgeous razor that will keep me smooth forever without contributing to landfills! Amazing! Something really cool is how the shop is curated to make zero waste accessible, fun and functional. The pink clay face soap is divine. The lavender restorative shampoo is to die for. Bring your empty containers to refill shampoo, conditioner, body wash, lotion, dish wash soap, hand soap, laundry detergent, multi surface cleaner, toothpaste, deodorant and more.. I have a feeling the offerings will continue to expand now that they have a brick and mortar.

Maneki Neko is the sister store of CATCH (which is on the 2nd floor across from Maneki Neko. You…read morecan take the elevator or stairs so they are super close to each other. The first thing I want to bring to your attention is HOW MUCH BLIND BOXES there are of various kinds. You've got some for newer popular anime series to older classic favorites, to several miscellaneous but ultra cute original characters (I'm looking at you, Baby3)! Watch out for end of season sales, although I'm not sure how often these happen, but I was in for a treat the last time I visited in mid-February. They had up to 50% off on select items, and they did not disappoint! One final piece of advice, other than if you're trying to avoid the crowd to arrive at opening hours and avoid the lunchtime, is to BYOB! This means bring your own bag (not booze)! Trust me, you'll wanna thank me later. :) I do recommend a bigger tote bag if you have one at home. The store does provide you with bags, but when your haul gets big/heavy, a nice tote will make carrying all those blind boxes A LOT easier. I went to 3 other merchandise stores including a Final Fantasy popup and ended up chucking everything in my one medium to large canvas tote. My palms thanked me for it. I'll include a picture of next haul since I wrote this review later than intended. Happy shopping!

Anytime I'm in Little Tokyo, I usually make a quick stop at Maneki Neko because it's always fun to…read morebrowse and see what new things they have in stock. The shop itself is on the smaller side, but they really pack a lot into the space. They carry a little bit of everything from snacks and blind boxes to household items and stationery. There's also a huge selection of Sanrio and anime merchandise, so it's a great place to find cute collectibles or small gifts. Whether you're shopping for yourself or looking for something fun for someone else, chances are you'll walk out with something. The staff has always been friendly during my visits, and while the store can get pretty busy at times, the overall experience is still enjoyable. Prices are fairly decent for the area which is definitely a plus. If you happen to be in Little Tokyo and enjoy browsing cute or quirky shops, I'd definitely recommend stopping by--it's worth the visit!

My family and I made a short stop at the Little Tokyo Mall in Los Angeles early one Saturday…read moremorning, just prior to leaving for Las Vegas. We were interested in stopping because it was our first time there and wanted to see it, however, we only had approximately one hour to explore. The shopping center wasn't too busy yet since it was so early, but also most all of the stores were closed as well. We did not get the complete experience of everything that this mall offers. A couple of bakeries were open when we visited and I am glad that we stopped! They allowed us to get some sweet treats and pastries, and they actually became one of the highlights of our trip to Little Tokyo! Although some of the stores weren't opened yet, it was great just to explore the area! All of the storefronts at the mall and surrounding Plaza were decorated for the holiday season. This brought an extra layer of charm to the shopping trip and helped create a cozy, festive ambiance! The quietness of the early morning hours created a amazing environment for us to walk through and enjoy our short little excursion to this beautiful shopping center! Although my visit was brief, I thoroughly enjoyed the experience. I would love to go back again, but next time during afternoon or evening hours when all the shops are open so I can finally see everything the Little Tokyo Mall has to offer!
