Wow! Such a hidden treasure. Very cute place with diverse drinks and snacks. The prices for snacks and food are very affordable compared to other close by cafes. I believe the format “to go” allows to keep them this way which is great 🙏🏻 This chicken salad sandwich was the best I’ve ever tried and I tried a lot since it’s my favorite type of food on the go. Love it!!!

Coffee (house coffee) tastes really good, which I did not expect at all!! I was just happy that I found a coffee shop where I could kill my time waiting for my family from visiting a clinic located next to this building. They seem to carry a variety selection of bread/pastries plus taiyaki that I want to try next time. It's a very small place only for takeout but there's a small sitting area in the lobby.

A small snack shack in a Hospital, now sells $3 taiyaki. Burnt, but fresh! Not a place for Children or Smokers or just hanging out. Sells scrubs for medical professionals

Love this place. Staff friendly. Love the varieties of other pastries/bread. Vienna latte and banana Nutella muffin sooo good 😊 wish they were open weekends or open early on weekdays.

The food and coffee tastes good… the only feedback is they don’t have pricing for all their item…

I ordered tea and pastries here. The tea is soooo good!! The space itself is clean, service is friendly, and overall easy process to order. I didn’t have to wait long either. Highly recommend this place✨

My first time trying the custard filled taiyaki ❤️ They were delicious and it goes well paired with a brown sugar milk tea with boba 😍 They were both patient with me answering all the questions I had. Thank you so much !

Worst coffee Ive ever had in my life. My mom thinks so as well. And we are not coffee specialist. We end up throwing it . I told the lady and she looks at me like she doesn't care. Worse customer service and attitude.

Sign says 4 taiyakis for $10. Ordered 4. Charged $3 each. False advertising. Watch out for these liars. They will overcharge you!

I have therapy in the building and decided to finally try this coffee spot !! So the drink gets sweeter as the honeycomb melts .. brilliant a little on the pricey side but absolutely worth it I added a shot to it so it wasn't as sweet ! Delicious

Great spot in a Medical Building for a coffee and a treat. I ordered a Custard Taiyaki & an iced oatmilk latte with Boba. Both were delish!

Stopped by after being inside the medical building. There's a parking lot in the front since it's located inside a medical building. What I tried: Jasmine green ice tea Taiyaki with red beans Jasmine green ice tea was light and good. Perfect and refreshing on a hot day. Red bean taiyaki were 1 for $2 or 5 for $10. I ordered 5. They were a bit under done. But, I liked that I wasn't overwhelmingly sweet. Freshly made.

They no longer serve donuts, but still serve bungeo-ppang/taiyaki with cream or redbean paste inside. Seems like they've updated their menu and the espresso machine! Still love their dalgona coffee and mixed multi grain frapp.

It's in a large complex across from a parking lot so it doesn't get much attention. But the taiyaki omg it's so delicious. It's perfectly crispy and toasted, and the inside is chewy like mochi. I got the custard kind and it was perfectly sweet and silky. Highly recommend.

Fast service that doesn't fall through, but nothing major for the foodie. Decent sandwiches and snacks... great for to-go orders. This establishment is all about getting food for hungry workers fast! They don't have anything for the foodie, but if your on a time crunch, this spot is perfect for a call in, take out lunch. All of the sandwiches I've tried here are pleasant enough, and will fill the stomach, but nothing you couldn't whip up yourself or crave. If you're on a 30 minute lunch break time crunch and just need something to fill the stomach, this is the spot!

This is a coffee shop inside medical building, has good coffee. Sometimes I drive by here to buy their coffee. Also they have healthy cold press juice. Small and decent ambient. Homemade BoongOhPang Fish Taiyaki is very fresh and crispy.

THE BEST authentic boong-uh-bbang (red bean filled fish shaped cake), this side of the Pacific! My parents brought it for me to try and I'm shocked that this exists outside of Korea at such a high level of authenticity! The red bean has whole red beans, not just the overly sweetened cheaper paste that you'll see in most places. Quality is A++!!! It's so crispy on the outside with the delicious lightly sweetened cake batter. I freeze mine and toast it at home and savor them. Must try!!!

Really just a place for a decent sandwich or coffee. Not certain how it got 2 five star reviews but I guess j expected more than 2 sandwiches available and no other drinks except hot coffee or hot tea (blender or something was not working) clerk couldn't really get off the phone to address it.

Stopped by here after my appointment with reneissance imaging center was complete. Ordered a matcha green tea frappe and it was yummy! The employee who took my order and prepared it was very kind and sweet, and very quick. Very cute tiny cafe with goodies and yummy drinks.

Le Cafe Noir is located inside a medical building in Koreatown and I must say.. this is one of the nicest indoor business cafe's I have been to! The interior looks brand new and everything is well-organized and squeaky clean! All the organic fruit juices are squeezed daily (my fav grapefruit juice) and they only use the freshest ingredients for their sandwiches! My absolute favorites are the egg&tuna sandwich and the chicken salad sandwich which both are very filling and flavorful! Parking is free and great customer service! Tell them Crystal sent ya~!

This place is a tiny "cafe" located adjacent to the lobby of a mostly korean populated medical building. I got the Tuna and Egg Sandwich for $4.50 and it was honestly better than I expected. The Tuna and Egg salad was seasoned well and flavorful to boot. I could taste both the tuna and the egg and it was made with just the right amount of mayo. I kinda wished they used a couple toothpicks or maybe some kind of wrapping to hold the sandwich together, because half of it fell apart when I picked it up, but that was not a dealbreaker. The menu isn't that extensive, and I didn't try any of the coffee items, but more than a sit-down venue or an actual cafe, Le Cafe Noir seems to be more of a pick-up-and-go kind of place. Not a bad spot to grab a quick bite.

This is my agencies go to for lunch catering! We have an office of almost 500 hungry realtors and le Cafe noir never disappoints! Best sandwiches and drinks for those of you on the go 24/7! Their croissant sandwiches are so yummy!

Poor customer service pastry extra dry asked to warm in microwave employee put her bare hands all over the pastry and expected the customer to take it and didn't want to give us a refund... Tried to act like she didn't understand English and was very rude and unprofessional!!!!

Sandwiches are all made in store. Juices are freshly squeezed and they use intelligentsia coffee.... Nuff said

Coffee is great, service is great, food is great! I was waiting to get an X-ray done and I was starving. I'm very picky about eggs, but the egg sandwich is amazing. Also the Spanish latte is delicious. Great place when you are on the move and want something good. This place is inside the medical office. The service was also very friendly and fast.

in the mist of hectic Los Angeles, This cute little cafe is truly a diamond in the rough. the Cafe has surprisingly yummy sandwiches. The chicken salad Sammy was very tasty! The coffee was rich in taste and did the job to get my morning started. Service was great and handled with haste.

I had a great time! I picked up a meal between Census shifts and was happy to see this café feeding the health care workers. I have such a special place in my heart for k-cafés, it makes me so happy to see how much business this one is having during this time. Being in a Korean hospital building for me was a nice mix of visiting family in Japan and then being back in LA! There was a line and everyone socially distanced, the security guard for the building also takes your temp when you come in which I know doesn't do that much but I think makes people think seriously about Covid. Great turkey sandwich and signature Brown Sugar Boba, also picked up an interesting Roman inspired Lemoncoco drink that reminded me of my trip to Italy last summer. The lady at the register was so nice to me and I saw how much the regular customers liked being there even just for their quick interaction with her :)

1. all the sandwiches here are really good (Hannah is always willing to make more sandwiches). they have kimbap here too, but it runs out quick 2. location is great (inside Grand Medical Plaza Building 2) 3. large selection of drinks (ranging from teas, coffees, smoothies, slushes, fraps, and don't forget the fresh squeezed OJ in the morning) 4. friendly staff - Annie, her mother, and Hannah are the best

This cafe is located inside the grand medical center ii. The sandwiches here are fresh and delicious. I suggest the tuna or chicken salad sandwich. Also the orange juices are freshly squeezed! Nice , clean, and cozy place. The owner Annie is great!!!

Love, love, love this place. Talk about STRONG coffee and fast service. A quaint little spot that you can grab snacks, drinks, and things that are healthy alternatives than fast food. If only they delivered. Lol. Spoiled much?

I'm not sure if I had high expectations or what... But there was hardly any fresh food. I paid $18 for 2 yogurts, a muffin, a granola bar and water. Sad I wasted my time here

Coffe tastes sooooo good. I recommend their Spanish Latte. They also have nice bites for lunch or snack, including Korean roll, Kimbab. Try this place when you have a chance to stop by the Grand Medical Plaza. Ladies working there are very very friendly and good baristas.

I'm such a coffee fanatic and let me just tell you...their coffee is amazing! I'm so glad that they had such a good selection of other stuff to drink since I brought my daughter and mother in law along. My mother in law was amazed by the tea selection & my 6 year old daughter was all about the smoothies. We ordered some yummy desserts to go with our drinks...I think this place is my newest addiction.

Went after my dental appointment to get some cold drinks. The cafe is right in the front, got myself a cold drink to help with the pain. Great place highly recommended.

Whenever I need a quick snack in between schedules and I'm in the area, I come here. Hannah makes the best sandwiches. Made fresh daily. Possibly the best tuna sandwich I've ever had. Oh and make sure to try their lavender milk tea, and their olive tapenade! PARKING IS FREE.
