K MINAMOTO Century City Store

Just grabbed some castella and mochi from K. Minamoto at Westfield Century City and oh man, it instantly took me back to Japan 🇯🇵✨ The castella is legit — super fluffy, moist, with that perfect subtle sweetness and rich egg flavor. Not too heavy, just the right amount of bounce. I got the classic plain and it was spot-on, like the ones you find in every train station in Tokyo. The mochi? Next level. So soft and chewy, with generous fillings (the white peach and seasonal fruit ones are insane). They’re beautifully packaged too — makes them perfect for gifting to friends who love Japanese sweets. Yeah, it’s on the pricier side, but the quality is 100% worth it — feels premium and authentic. The little store itself is so cute and gives major Ginza vibes right in the middle of LA. If you’re craving real-deal wagashi without a flight to Japan, this is your spot. Already planning my next visit!

I got 2 peach cakes to go bc most of the desserts I was looking for were sold out and wouldn't be back for awhile. The sour raspberry didn't blend with the other toppings on top and the peach was so mild it was really an after taste. Wasn't great when you match the price, size and taste together. Not really planning on going back.

I enjoyed my visit to the K. Minamoto outpost in the Westfield Mall. Customer service was very helpful, and I enjoyed the variety of options - ranging from senbei to jelly’s to mochi desserts. Would recommend a visit!

Staff is great and explains what items are if you aren't familiar with the desserts. I was so happy when I found the sakura mochi here. I've eaten it years ago. It tastes so fresh! One piece was $4 bucks. They have an assortment of mochi's and other sweet imported desserts from Japan which can be a bit pricey, but it's oh-so-good

Amazing selection of wonderful Japanese sweets and treats. I love that they have individuals you can buy if you don't want an entire pack of cookies or mochi. Everything is displayed so nicely and open just like you find in Japan and I absolutely love that! Staff is friendly, but that's where and why I'm only giving 4 stars - the cashier didn't have a clue about this company or the store. I asked simple questions like which prefecture the store or owners originated, or even if everything is imported from Japan or if anything is made here in the US. He didn't know anything. Whether it's lack of training or the laziness from the cashier to learn, it's not a good look for the store.

Was honestly nervous to try anything here, but the sales person told me to try the white bean cake and that thing was🔥🔥🔥not super sweet, but just right for me. Definitely interested in trying some of the other desserts they have now.

Pretty pricey but this might be the only place that I’ve seen around here that specializes in such yummy jellies and sweets from Japan.

Great experience overall except for the guy with curly dark hair. He made me and my friends uncomfortable, but other than that, would come back !

Food : Flawless Service : Flawless Ambiance : Flawless! Try anything it's all a 10/10

Absolutely love this place. They have the best Japanese imported treats, beautifully packaged, authentic and delicious. A real treat that feels special and hard to find anywhere else.

Came here over the weekend to pick up some Japanese sweets. This place is definitely pricey but the sweets are delicious! I picked up a box of green tea mochi. They weren't too sweet and the perfect texture. Think authentic Japanese mochi texture and green tea powder. The staff couldn't care less if you buy something. Both girls working were on their phones with their heads down behind the counter and didn't help with any of the options. Also for how expensive this place is, not even offering a plastic/paper bag with your purchase is crazy. I had to ask for one and they said it costs $.50. I bought it since I needed one and the bag was the smallest cheapest quality paper bag I've ever seen haha. Anyways, come for the sweets. Don't come for the service or price.

If you're looking for exquisite Japanese sweets and impeccable service, you've found the perfect place. As someone originally from Tokyo, Japan, an associate professor of Chado Urasenke, a Vegan, I wholeheartedly recommend this place to anyone who wants to indulge in an elegant, sweet experience or find a stunning, delicious gift for someone special. Every treat here is as beautiful as it is delicious!

"Famous" Japanese sweet shop! Practically everything they made are beautiful and tasty. Of course, as expected, they are not cheap by any standard, even with the significant Japanese Yen depreciation. But sometimes we just need to treat ourselves because we deserve it!

This store is amazing!! This store is super clean & super friendly! Everything here is so organized & neat! There are so many things here you can choose from. The staff here all very sweet & kind and very knowledgeable anything that there. They have rice cakes, mochi flavored, red beans & and much more they are so delicious!! I will definitely be back to buy a lot more ha! I'll definitely tell my family & friend to visit!! Also just be mindful they don't expect cash so please make sure you bring a card of your choice.

My favourite store in the whole world! I feel like a child again stepping inside, and becoming fascinated by all the sweets on display. If I could I would buy out the entire store My favourite sweets? All of them! Think a peaceful afternoon, your favourite tea brewed, paired with a cute Usagi San (a bunny-shaped pastry with white bean paste and yuzu filling)... hmmmm... They've always been on the pricy end for decades. But their quality has not faltered. From the sweets to the packaging, everything is thoughtfully designed. Perfect for gifting. If you haven't been, what are you waiting for?

High-end dagashi Japanese sweets with elegant, fancy packaging perfect for gifts. They also rotate some of their sweets based on the seasonal ingredients and holidays. I believe this is the only physical location of K. Minamoto in Southern California, though I could have sworn that I've seen some inside Mitsuwa unless I'm hallucinating. If you're not hankering for eating an entire box yourself or want to save some money and want to try some of their sweets, there are individual packaged servings that can easily be shared between 2 or even 3 people if you just want to take a bite (truly revealing how much of a poor man I am but a good FYI nonetheless!) We got the: 1) Fukuwatashi Senbei: -This is a vanilla cream and soybean cookie. -Easy to eat and a cookie that is "not to sweet" that any older Asian parent/grandparent/adult would appreciate. -Not too dry, a bit soft, but not overly so. A delicate vanilla cookie that is good on its own or pairs nicely with some tea. 2) Seasonal Marron Soymilk Pudding: -Another smooth dessert that also isn't too sweet. Marron is chestnut and the taste is very subtle, leaning more towards more of a soymilk flavor. -A slightly firmer pudding that holds its shape. Reminds me of the Vietnamese jelly dessert (thach). 3) Gozenguri: -This is a mochi soft rice cake with chestnut. -There's some crispy rice bits on the outside for some texture, the mocha is very soft, with very little chewy texture. -Decent amount of filling and once again, subtle chestnut flavor. -Out of the three this was the sweetest dessert item, so if you're actually eating the entire thing yourself, this would go great with tea. If you know someone who loves dagashi or would appreciate some fancy high end dessert, this is a great place to get a gift for them. They do have an online shop to order gift boxes and their other items from.

Customer service is below zero. We were never greeted. No one came to tell me what is what, since it was my first time. Products variety of products is very different, interesting and delicious. The packaging is a great gift potential. I grabbed two things from the displays and paid. Hope they are good for the person I gave them too.

This is one of my favorite places to visit in the Century City mall. I specifically come here for the peaches that are wrapped and put in boxes for display. They're a fresh peach inside of a jelly! It's sooo tasty, I love it! They have many other snacks with Matcha and chocolate but the fruit snacks are my go to! Thanks for being amazing K Minamoto!

We originally came in here looking for a gift. The customer service was .... Subpar. Ambiance was questionable because of the overall service we received. When we went to check out the items we were interested in, one of the employees said "do not touch!" ..... okay.. lol. Why would I touch it? I'm not an animal.. How about a hello how can I help you / what are you looking for? Instead it felt like they were inconvenienced by us browsing. Overall it was strange. I personally felt like I was unworthy of their products and pushed away. If their desserts taste anything like their attitudes, I'd say it's all sour.. Absolute 1 star from me. Bye!!!!!

OMG. I always walked by this place pre COVID when I was at the mall, but never bought anything. My friend gifted me this chocolate thing and it was AMAZING. I need to go and buy more. :) So yummy. It's like choco pie, but better! It looks like the snack that Doraemon eats, but darker. LOL I need to try their other yummy goods too. :)

Pretty good selection of Japanese dessert goodies. Lots to choose from. Price is fair. Will definitely come back here again.

This place has very tasty Japanese style sweets and treats. Love the store, it has a nice vibe and extra clean. Every item in packages are displayed inside the glass shelves. Employees are very friendly and helpful to explain the ingredients of each treats. Love the presentation of the displays. Only downside is they don't have anything for testing/trying the flavors. Bought simple rice cake and dairy free red bean mochi. Everything sounds yummy! My favorites are the dairy free option treats. If you like to snack, try this place at the Westfield's Century City Mall.

So pretty and so good, I totally recommend this to anyone who wants a little snack or something to buy for gifts. Staffs are very helpful if you have any questions or need help with what to get. The place is so nice and so clean.

The first time that we visited K.Minamoto store is in San Francisco. They offer the high quality Japanese sweets. I am happy to see the have a store in West field Central City. I just love their package, it's so creative and pretty. Their store interior design and all decoration are very unique and beautiful. This time, we tried their White Peach Mochi and Green Tea Mochi. They both are good, it's even better if eat with tea or coffee. We will come back soon and try different sweets.

The most amazing mochi ! Like everything Japanese delivery is everything ! A beautiful box wrapped in origami like paper . When you buy it they ask if you wanted to be gift wrap . No we're going to eat it lol. So I assume it's a really great gift . Japanese custom whenever visiting someone's house always bring a gift. Please anytime you're coming to my house I'll gladly take a box of mochi from here !!! Five star mochi in Beverly Hills this is your spot !

It's always a good day when you spot a Minamoto Kitchoan. Tried these Japanese sweets (Wagashi) for the first time when I lived in NY. It was love at first bite. So delicate, flavorful, not overly sweet, and made with quality ingredients. While walking around Westfield Century City Mall, we came across Minamoto. Employees were friendly for the most part. Not the warmest at the beginning, but our goodies were wrapped up neatly. The store is neat and organized. They offer all sorts of Japanese confectioneries imported directly from Japan. I've always liked their packaging. Overall, this girl right here is a fan!

Wow - this is an authentic Japanese confectionary. They have 7 stores in the US located in New York, Hawaii and California. This is currently one of the two stores in California. I had to look up the word Wagashi, which is a symbol of traditional Japanese culture, is also a Japanese confection made from simple ingredients - bean, rice, wheat, sugar, agar and fruit. Their selection changes with seasons. Every single piece has an amazing appearance, shape and flavor. Their flagship store in Tokyo' Ginza area should be on your list when visiting Japan, if not, don't miss visiting this store in Westfield Century City shopping center.

K.Minamoto is a small shop that offers japanese sweets. Located on the second level doors away from Macy's and across from Eataly. "MINAMOTO" as Origin of "WAGASHI". "KITCHO" meaning Signs of pleasure. "AN " meaning Places people gather...kitchoan means places of gather, very much like your home kitchen, a place you gather. It is said that in the past, the term"WAGASHI" (Japanese-style Confectionery) originated from the term "KASHI", which means fruits and nuts. Later on, in the Yayoi Era, Japanese-style confectionery transformed from a part of regular meal into luxurious food that was called "WAGASHI". K Minamoto has several international locations. While this shop has been here a couple years, I recently reacquainted myself with these addictive sweet treats and it's become my latest obsession among others... Over two years ago, I resided at the Ritz Carlton in DTLA and close to DTLA's japanese village, where one of the oldest japanese sweet treat shop, Fugetso-Do is. I love all the variety of mochi, jelly and other japanese treats and miss going there, but going to very urban DTLA during these troubled times was a deterrent. During my times in DTLA, I was often locked in due to street closures from marches, protests of crowds of people, who sometimes had a permit to protest and often times, no permit and just an excuse to cause chaos by congregating in the freeways blocking drivers and making traffic horrific. Those crowds would affect areas of City Hall and the Japanese village was close by and subject to road closures. While I miss my visits at all my past frequent spots I like, I don't miss the chaos and upheaval from the angry crowd. I'd make a greater difference and rather vote. Peace to their cause though. Currently, residing in a safer, heavily patrolled with public and private security in Beverly Hills and I am so delighted this shop, K.Minamoto in the Westfield shopping center located in Century City is less than 5 minutes away and I can satisfy my sweet tooth. Have frequently visited the last week and the lovely staff Mizuko was always friendly and helpful. She always wore a face covering and gloves and the shop is very clean and organized. She explained details of each confection with patience to very curious me, because I want to know the contents of what I'm eating. There are varieties of sweets, cakes, crackers offered boxed or some individually wrapped. I particularly like the mochi and jelly. Each tastes delicate, subtle flavors and not too sweet...which makes me crave more. Every time I come in to 'just look' I end up buying a boxful. My gym Equinox is steps away, and so don't want to spend more time working off these sweet calories, I limit myself to one treat as it's so addicting. Just when I think I have a fav flav, it changes to another flav. My furbabe Fendi absolutely loves all the mochi and jelly, but is only allowed 1 treat, which she practically inhales each piece, so cut a mochi into a few pieces for her to enjoy. These sweet treats are wonderful but $$$$ spendy and make a nice gift even if it's for yourself, because you are worth it! Recommend

We have loved Minamoto Kitchoan for years, ever since my sister-in-law first introduced us to the chocolate mochi in NYC. A couple years later we were thrilled to discover they had a branch in Torrance and now we're even more ecstatic to see they have opened a storefront in Century City! This is your prototypical elegant Japanese mochi shop, with everything beautifully and individually wrapped. It's not just presentation, though - the mochi is far superior to anything you'll find at Nijiya (or even, dare I say, Fugetsu-Do). Customer service was very attentive and helpful in answering questions when we were there. They even offered us samples of their white peach and green tea mochi (as in, an entire piece of each, individually wrapped, of course). The only downside to this location is that it's pretty small, so selection is somewhat limited.

The two girls that were there were super friendly and not pushy at all. There are so many treats here like mochi, cakes, jellies, etc. It was so hard to choose between all the variety that I ended up getting one red bean and chestnut cake (looks almost like a mini moon cake) and one red bean mochi. Both were yummy -- not too sweet. If you've never had traditional Japanese desserts, then just get one to try before getting a whole box set though they are beautifully decorated.

Piss poor customer service. I was looking forward to trying and buying multiple pastry and dessert items, and I waited patiently for the store clerk to finish with the customer before me. Once that sale was complete, she proceeded to ignore me, making a bee line to the customers that just walked in the door.

Love all the authentic Japanese sweets and snacks. The candied yuzu peels are a must, but they might be seasonal. Also recommend the red bean dorayaki pancakes and the chocolate ones too. Love the baumkuchan and honey castella cakes as well. There are expiration dates sometimes within a couple weeks so eat accordingly! Prepare to spend some $ for yummy snacks fresh from Japan. Perfect for gifts and special treat. They also have locations such as Green Park area of London and San Francisco.

So so good. Very unique, with amazing flavors. My family has loved it since discovering it in London. They used to have more stores but this is the last one in the area. -So many good options -Everything with red bean and green tea are my favorites -I would recommend trying it all -Sign-up for their points, it's definitely worth it -The workers can be either really nice or kind of rude -Not a huge fan of their jelly candies -Pretty expensive, but worth it This is one of my go to places for unique candies and snacks. I love it.

Beautiful little shop with sweet Japanese treats! I stumbled upon this shop on my way to Eataly and I've been back each time I've been to Westfield Century City. The matcha senbai cookies are my favorite! They are so decadent and rich - perfect for a matcha lover. These confections are pricier than average, but for good reason. They're high quality (different from the treats at Marukai/Tokyo Central), the packaging is beautiful, and each treat is like a little gift. I buy some for my dad each time I go, and he tells me that it's like a little piece of Japan. His current fave is the green tea mochi. The store is located on the second floor next to Macy's & Eataly, just a short walk from the parking structure. I had to dock one star because each time I've gone in, the customer service has been basically nonexistent. The staff has never greeted my party coming in and has never asked if I have questions. When I have asked a question, the staff have sounded almost bothered that I asked about the ingredients. So now I just browse, go up to pay, and that's about it. Besides that, I'm a new fan of K Minamoto - amazing quality!

Minamoto is a high end traditional Japanese dessert shop serving a wide variety of different Japanese desserts it is a bit pricy but there are things you won't find anywhere else. The mochi here are softer and easier to chew and seem to be of higher quality than others I've tried. I got the gozenguri which is a chestnut mochi with chestnuts on top and chestnut flavored filling. It was pretty good but very sweet and cost 6 for a piece. The desserts here is something to try and the service lady was super friendly. The shop looks very enticing and I was attracted to its allure .

Received a box of Japanese cookies and mochi stuffed dates as a birthday gift and it immediately took me back to my visit to Tokyo last year. The crispy matcha cookie and cream filling was light, not too sweet and so delicious! The mini peach mochi they are selling here were similar to the ones I brought home last year and I can't wait to get to the store!

K. Minamoto is a little dessert shop inside Westfield mall in century city. I believe everything in here is imported from Japan. All I've tried from them is the matcha mochi and it was damn good. It's got Plenty matcha flavor and it was oh so soft. The red bean paste inside of it wasn't overly sweet and i could taste the ingredients separately from each other which was cool! There was a lot of items I was unfamiliar with so I didn't get much. I will say that they all looked so unique and were all wrapped up beautifully. I gotta get out of my comfort zone and try some of these Japanese desserts because I could be missing out on some delicious foreign yummy stuff :)

Customer service is below zero, even if it's due to shortage on labour market, sales person's attitude is unacceptable. Never going back. Products variety is very different, interesting and delicious.

I love this. The staff is very pleasant and helpful. The desserts are all fantastic. I especially like all of the jellies, but I always try whatever's new! Right now they have these really cool grape jellies with tiny inside, super cute and delicious . Stop by and try something new!! Omg, also try the pancakes cuz they're super fluffy with smooth filling. I want more

Traditional Japanese gourmet Mochi imported from Japan! The store feels very Japanese. Everything is neatly displayed, easy to navigate and high quality. Minamoto is famous for their mochis. It's not the ice cream Mochi but the other style that is room temperature and soft. For being an imported item I think it maintains a reasonable price. Also the price you see listed is the price of the product with taxes included. Their products come gift wrapped and also in nicely designed packaging. Located right by the Eatily entrance on the second floor. Makes for a nice casual gift.

I was in the San Francisco store a lot whenever I went up north. They had one in Torrance, too. That was closer, yet still too far from West Los Angeles. So, naturally, I was doing my happy dance when I found out a Minamoto Kitchoan was opening at my local mall. They've tweaked their name to K.Minamoto, but it'll always be Minamoto Kitchoan to me! When it opened, this store was pretty bare and stark, but it's filling up nicely now. Lots of Japanese sweets (wagashi) and crackers coming in weekly. I absolutely love how their sweets aren't too sweet. And the artistry and packaging is unparalleled. If you're looking for gifts that go beyond your typical pastries, you have to come here. Everything is so beautifully made. Especially the fruit jellies, which have whole fruit encased in soft, juicy jelly. Try the whole peach one! The other thing that I love about this place is the staff. Fully attentive and so cheerful! If you've been to Japan, you'll know what I mean.

Japanese confectionary at its best! Yes this place is expensive but it's so yum. They don't have samples here so you have to gamble that but it's worth it. Their speciality is this big peach fruit with jelly. It's absolutely divine but cost a pretty penny. Since I went around Mother's Day, they even had cute premade packages including various peach confectionaries. All of them were amazing delicious. Plus their packaging was Uber cute! I'm not surprised because Japanese are so good at that kind of stuff. This place is located at the Westfield Century City mall.

This is for the Japanese treat lover in your life! It's so authentic, it took me back to the underground shopping malls in Tokyo where you're find little confectionery shops just like this. The packaging and paper they wrap everything in is so authentic. You'll love their jellies, candy and red bean filled cakes, it's the perfect gift or treat. If you're not sure what to get, I suggest getting the premade combination gift that has a variety to try. They even have original Japanese wedding cake, you never see that! They're located next to Macy's on the second floor, this store is a must try!

Yes it is a cute store, but: if you have an issue Customer Service is ABYSMAL. Just terrible. I purchased some "matcha chocolate" sweets (matcha powder on the outside, chocolate cream on the inside. But it turns out that the cream on the inside is not chocolate. It is a white cream that has NO flavor of chocolate (no, not even white subtle chocolate) So I call and at first the manager says I can do an exchange, but when I called to confirm the date to come in, he decided that they indeed WILL NOT honor an exchange or return of the inaccurate product. Here's what's funny (not funny, sarcasm): Manager tells me that "chocolate in Japan does not taste like chocolate" as we know it here. Apparently I was *magically supposed to know this* before purchasing a box that says CHOCOLATE quite clearly and in a CHOCOLATE colored package. If you know that there is a cultural / taste difference, perhaps that should be CLEARLY INDICATED on the label, or somewhere nearby or by the salesperson. Not the best way to conduct business. This review does not taste like chocolate by the way...

This is a great spot for some traditional Japanese sweets. They sell some items individually or in a box. The items are a little bit on the pricier side but it's worth every cent. This is an authentic Japanese shop. I wouldn't recommend someone that's never had true Japanese sweets to buy a whole box. Try one first. Some people might have issues with sweetness level or the chewiness. (Japan doesn't make their desserts overtly sweet). Customer service was on point. Informative and understood the regions of Japan. For example, I wanted something for my father in law who is southern country and my mother who is big city Tokyo. She found two items and both people were very happy with their gift. They also do complementary gift wrapping. And like true Japanese style the wrapping is like an origami master piece.

I'm more than a bit out of my depth when it comes to wagashi (和菓子), or Japanese confectionery. When I had my first try of a Japanese confection nearly two decades ago ― the common daifukumochi (大福餅), that ball of bland white stickiness surrounding a gritty ball of paste that is vaguely sweet and unmistakably bean-y ― I was terrified and disgusted: What kind of culture could consider this a "sweet"? As the years have progressed, I've learned that this is just the tip of the iceberg on the endless parade of Japanese cuisine horribles ― shirako (白子), basashi (馬刺し), mayonnaise on everything ― while coming to an uneasy truce with daifuku, but I still find myself scratching my head over wagashi. Agar jellies, azuki beans, and the like are tastes and textures I just don't see myself ever quite warming to fully, so in that respect, I must recognize that I will never really be able to appreciate a Japanese confectioner like K. Minamoto to the fullest. K. Minamoto is a very traditional seller of very traditional wagashi; individually-wrapped items come in pre-packaged sets for giving as omiyage (お土産), the gifts or souvenirs that are ubiquitous in Japanese culture. The wrappings are often very beautiful, and the presentations are handsome, appropriate for business gifting or formal occasions. They sell European-influenced desserts commonly seen in Japanese markets ― langues de chat from Austria, baumkuchen from Germany, castella from Portugal ― and traditional large senbei (煎餅), or rice crackers. I purchased sets of something also called senbei, but they are sandwich cookies rather than rice crackers; one set was vanilla, the other a deeply-flavored matcha. Both versions were excellent, and the friends with whom I shared them enjoyed them as much as did I. I would definitely consider getting a box of six (less than $20) for gift-giving. K. Minamoto's products strike me as better quality and more attractive than similar omiyage sets one sees at Japanese supermarkets like Marukai and Nijiya (and I suspect the products are fresher, too). Sadly, the one wagashi I absolutely adore ― those beautiful little multicolored sugar stars called konpeitō (金平糖) ― were nowhere to be seen. I'm tempted to return and maybe try to edge out of my wagashi comfort zone slowly. I didn't have as much time to spend in the store as I would've liked, and the one employee was occupied with another costumer's larger order, so I couldn't ask questions before I needed to move on with my day. I hope to return when I can have a more leisurely visit, learn more about K. Minamoto's offerings, and maybe get a little more comfortable with the world of wagashi.

The name Minamoto Kichoan, not sure if related to the Minamoto clan from Kamakura or just took up the name Minamoto because wagashi was developed in the Kamakura area where the Minamoto clan flourished back from 794ad . Wagashi sweets are some of the most intricate and are definitely beautiful edible creations. I didn't know, but gashi comes from kashi which means sweets but comes from the original intention of sweets from fruits and nuts. So a lot of desserts here use a variety of fruits and nuts like chestnuts. But these desserts, usually served for guests with some really good fresh green tea or matcha. The one i tried today is the suikanshuku, which is a seasonal dried persimmon. Looks like the hachiya type with the white bean in the center and red bean coating the outside, with the dried persimmon in between. So delicately sweet and smooth flavors, the hint of dry persimmon and white/red bean go well and mesh perfectly with dried and slightly chewy dried persimmon. And wagashi uses some really refined smooth sugar as it has super mild sweetness and doesn't distract from the overall intention to highlight the persimmon. This one is must try here.

Beautiful high-end store with multiple kinds of Japanese confectionaries. The sales guy was great - he steered us toward the intro products of single serving mochi. He turned us from very casual browsers into buyers who now very well might return and buy the $18 fanciest peach jelly or the boxes as gifts.

Always super friendly staff! This is one of my favorite stops at the Century City mall. They have great authentic Japanese treats that are perfect for gifts! If you like Japanese snacks and treats, you should stop by!

Looks cute but Overpriced. Not worth your money. You can find similar stuffs at any Japanese market. And they dont offer any samples.

K. Minamoto serves the best mochis I have ever had. Although they can be pretty pricey, the taste and quality is reflected! These Japanese treats are perfect for gifts.

Absolutely the go to place for Japanese sweets! So happy we don't have to go all the way down to Torrance anymore.

Some of the best mochi I've ever eaten. Cute little gift boxes if you want to gift it to someone. The strawberry mochi is my favorite so far

Zero for customer service, the place was empty, staff was rude and condescending did not make my wife and I feel welcome at all. We felt like we were disturbing them even though we are the customers.

Everything is a work of art! What a beautiful store and amazing delicacies.

Beautiful presentation, delicious confections. They were so fresh and delightful.
