Millet Crepe - Little Tokyo

Millet Crepes in Japantown (Downtown LA) is one of those spots you stumble into and immediately want to come back to. The menu is loaded with toppings — fruit, chocolate, ice cream, nuts — basically anything you can dream up on a crepe. But the real star is the crème brûlée crepe. They torch the sugar on top so it gets that crackly caramel shell, and inside it’s super creamy and rich without being heavy. It feels like dessert and breakfast had a perfect baby. The place has a chill vibe, service is friendly, and it’s great for a quick treat after walking around the area. Totally worth a stop.

The crème brûlée crepe was so good! Loved the crunchy caramel top with the creamy filling inside. The crepe itself was light and perfectly cooked. Definitely a must-try if you have a sweet tooth — I’d order it again!

Tried Millet Crepe for the first time today, and it was a delightful experience! The crepe was light, fresh, and not overly sweet—perfect for a light dessert or snack. Loved the unique texture of the millet flour. The presentation was beautiful, and the staff were friendly and welcoming. I’m giving it 4 stars only because the pricing felt a little on the higher side for the portion size. Still, definitely worth trying if you’re in Little Tokyo and craving something different and wholesome.

The crepes are so good, well executed! The entire process is very limited person-to-person interaction, and the items came out quickly. We got original creme brulee and tiramisu, and both were yummy! If you have a sweet tooth you’ll love it.

The Crème Brûlée Crepe was absolutely amazing! I never expected to find such a delicious crepe in LA. The caramelized sugar on top was perfectly crisp with a slight bitterness that paired beautifully with the rich vanilla custard inside. I also tried the Nutella Crepe, and it was just as satisfying Nutella works so well with the soft, warm crepe that I couldn’t stop eating, even though I was already full. The shop itself isn’t really designed for hanging out, but you can enjoy your crepe outside, and the location in Little Tokyo is super convenient. Each crepe is made fresh to order, so there’s a short wait, but since the place isn’t overly crowded, it feels completely worth it. Definitely a must-try dessert spot if you’re in the area!

Great crepe in the middle of Little Tokyo! They have all kind of combo and we got the Creme Brulee one. It was perfectly sweet burnt caramel on top. We have came back and gotten this twice. Overall I would highly recommend.

Amazing ice cream and pastries, so delicious. The little pig design is too cute. Never had anything like this before. Will gladly return. The location is very small and gets packed very fast due to how popular the place is. Crepe in a cone up is such a brilliant idea! Can't wait to come back.

Delicious dessert that is really satisfying and does not leave you feeling terrible after eating it. The crème brûlée is the most popular and for good reason. Although it is quite sweet, the combination with the crepe means it is not as overwhelming as other desserts. Order on the tablet and the crepe comes out a few minutes later. You can add ice cream and toppings as well. Decent amount of indoor and outdoor seating, and friendly staff.

Always a must to visit while I'm in little Tokyo. It was a nice little dessert after eating some Katsu chicken. The menu has a variety of options for fillings and toppings, but I chose the most popular one. It was a strawberry and banana with Nutella. Stuffed with ice cream and finished with a crème brule. Service was fast and ambiance felt like it was quick to make!

I'm not much of a dessert person, but I seem to gravitate towards this establishment when I'm around little Tokyo in Los Angeles. The crepe itself is done well. Thin, chewy, and rolled up to a decent size. The fillings are equally simple, with an added layer of luxury via the creme brulee top. It's interesting that the one thing I hate about this is that the creme brulee layer of the dessert ends too quickly, and what's left underneath is cream and whatever filling you choose. The latter bites are still fine, but the crepe was almost rolled in a way where it is almost impossible to save the best for last. Ambiance: It's a small shop that seats 8-10 people. Most people just stand outside after ordering, which isn't a problem because the desserts here are very portable. Service - You order via tablet, pay via card, and wait for your number to be called. Not much service to analyze. Watching the staff work on the orders behind the glass is a nice touch.

Crepes and crème brûlée?! I was sold right away. I have seen these crepes pop up on my social media time and time again. But the number one thing that kept me from going was that everyone commented the long wait times to get them. I wasn't super thrilled to wait in a long time for food, UNTIL I found out they had a second location in little Tokyo! I was sold! Parking is somewhat limited because it's all street parking. But if you don't mind driving around for a bit or paying for a parking garage then you are okay. The staff is always so nice and helpful. They have a pretty good size menu and they can let you customize pretty much anything to what you are craving. Now back to the crepes, the flavor of the crepe brûlée was exactly what I was expecting and craving. I added a scoop of vanilla ice cream to mine and it was best of both worlds. The shop is small and has decent among of sitting options but there is a lot more outside in the little plaza.

Millet crepes are hands down the finest crepes I've ever tasted! The customer service is exceptional; the staff is always friendly and eager to assist. The neon lights adorning the walls add a fun vibe to the place. I tried the strawberry shortcake crepe, and I can wholeheartedly recommend it!

The crème brûlée crepe was AMAZING! Got the rose crème, strawberry , and bananas. It's definitely matches the hype. I could eat 10 of these sooooooo good. One of those desserts you never want to end. Order from a tablet. Service is quick, inside is clean. Couple of chairs and tables inside and a couple outside. Parking lot next door and there's street parking. I would come here again to try their other deserts

Walked in on a hot afternoon to grab some delicious crepe for dessert. It was easy to place the order with customizations and lot of options to add on. I got the crème brûlée nutella banana strawberry crepe and it was out of the world I am not a huge brûlée fan but they just made it too good. The sweetness and everything was perfect and fresh. Service was quick and its a small shop with few chairs and tables. Not sure how they manage of it gets crowded. But crepe is well packed even for a dine it which you can take away

Got the Creme Brûlée crepe with matcha ice cream, custard and fresh strawberry filling. It was $9.50, a little pricy IMO, but tasty nevertheless. The crepe was freshly made, thin, and soft, but it was rolled in a way that sometimes your bite is all crepe with little filling. I was reconstructing bite after bite, tearing the crepe, moving the filling around, in an attempt to get the perfectly balanced bite, lol. I don't think this is something I will get every time I'm in Little Tokyo, but once in awhile, I will indulge.

Millet Crepe seems like it would be horribly sweet but actually surprisingly was not so! I split the fresh strawberry creme brulee crepe with a friend and it was rich but not super heavy. I really liked the fresh strawberries inside of the crepe, since the acidity and juiciness of the strawberries cut past some of the sweetness of the custard. There was a little bit of a wait and it was pretty busy at this location -- not a lot of seating so it might be a fight to sit down while waiting.

cute little spot in little Tokyo, tons to do in the near by area and very easy to locate. ordered a banana and Nutella filled crepe with crème brûlée topping and I defff would recommend this!

STEPH JUDGEMENT: Amazing dessert crepes. After lunch my niece and I were hankering for some dessert and happened to walk by this place. We were totally sucked in by the tempting photos! After much deliberation, we decided to share a crème brûlée crepe, which turned out to be VERY GOOD. Perfect buttery custard in a crepe cone with the trademark burnt sugar top--decadent and delightful!

During a recent trip to Tokyo, I noticed crêpes everywhere but didn't get the chance to try them. So, when I visited Little Tokyo in Los Angeles, I jumped at the opportunity--and I'm so glad I did! These crêpes were everything I imagined and more. The delicate crêpe was cooked to perfection, filled with a luscious cream that was both rich and light. The highlight? The perfectly torched top that added a subtle caramelized flavor, tying all the elements together beautifully. It satisfied every craving I had and then some. This spot is a must-visit, and I'll definitely be stopping by every time I'm in Little Tokyo!

It was just ok! Not worth the price In my opinion, but maybe it's meant to be shared. Would be an awkward thing to share though? It was also quite a bit run down and dirty when I went with random pieces blocked off but hopefully they improved since then!

Discovered this little gem after our disappointing lunch. It's a cute little place tucked away across the street from the Little Tokyo Mall. It's self order and you pick up at another window. You can see them making your dessert and it smells heavenly. They are famous for their Crème Brûlée Crepe but we ordered the Hot Apple Pie. It was oh so yummy. Will definitely try the Crème Brûlée Crepe next time.

Creamy custard layered on top of fresh mango ice cream and juicy cubes of mango, paired with a chewy thin batter with a crispy caramelized crust! Served within 10 min by ordering through a kiosk, you can watch your crepe made with perfection! Servers are accommodating with cute photo-ops! Plenty of seating to come enjoy with family and friends, all in all a great stop for something sweet and creamy!!

This crepe place is 10/10 SOOO worth the hype! We got lucky and there was no line when we went but I've seen the line out the door many times. The creme brulee one is the best and is a must.

I absolutely love Millet and so happy they opened up one in Little Tokyo. The place is rather small and they have seats unlike the one on Sawtele. You place your order on their computers and wait till they call your name. I always go with the classic, crepe custard filling with strawberries, bananas, and nutella and I'm never disappointed. You can also watch them do their magic through the glass and see how they make them and torch them, all that. My mouth is literally salivating as I type. Try them out, you will love them =)

I was never willing to make the trip to Sawtelle, so I was excited to discover they opened a location in Little Tokyo! I decided to try the classic Creme Brulee crepe filled with just custard. The creamy custard had just the right amount of sweetness for my taste, and I absolutely loved the soft, chewy texture of the crepe. Next time, I'll experiment with other flavors and add ons :)

I'm sad that my rating isn't higher given how much I've anticipated trying their famous crème brûlée crepe. Ordering is quick at the kiosk and the crepe comes out pretty fast. Unfortunately for me, I enjoyed the first few bites but the rest became a mess and was too heavy. The crepe was limp, and the filling was almost all custard with very little strawberry or Nutella. The ice cream was a little icy and lacked green tea flavor. I don't think I would get this again.

Millet Crepe has been on my bucketlist for years, and I got to visit their Little Tokyo location for the first time last Saturday afternoon. The shop was crowded, but there was no queue to order at the kiosk, and most customers were chilling or waiting for their orders. I had minimal interaction with the staff, but I thought they were friendly and that service was quite quick. The shop has a casual vibe, and there's limited seating indoors and outdoors. I got the Creme Brulee Crepe with custard filling and strawberries. The crepe was fragrant, soft, and thin, yet held its structure. There was a good ratio of crepe to custard, which was light and not too sweet. The strawberries added freshness, and I wish there was more since I found just a few slices in mine. Also, there's a window in the shop where you can watch the staff make the crepes; it was satisfying to see them torch the sugar tops for the Creme Brulee Crepes. The caramelized sugar top was perfect and elevated the crepe! I'd definitely order the Creme Brulee Crepe again, but I also want try other crepes and combos on their menu.

4++ There seems to be always a huge line at the Sawtelle location, so when I saw that this location didn't have a long line at all when I was in the area I had to go. This place is known for their crème brûlée crêpes. Cone shaped, custard filled treats with caramelized tops and an edible crêpe container. The vibe was relaxed because everybody was seeming to have a good time while enjoying their desserts. Although there wasn't a huge line, the place was pretty busy. Definitely a tasty treat worth getting. Still not sure if I would ever wait in that long line at the Sawtelle location, but if it were available to me, I would totally get it again.

Crème brûlée crepe + strawberry and banana + nutella = $9 of bliss! Expect a long wait time and a crowd outside, but otherwise worth it.

Tried this place for the first time in their Sawtelle location. Now that I don't work in that area, I rarely go. They finally opened this location about a year or so ago and everything tasted as good as I remembered, but I feel like this time the crepe was a little on the doughy side and they skimped on the ice cream. But overall, good dessert place.

Creme Brûlée Millet with Matcha Ice cream inside was very good. Small hole in wall. Limited hard seating. Service could be friendlier. Homeless guy outside. Parking challenging. I would go back.

I was referred to this place by a foodie friend and was told if O was in the area, make it an effort to stop there for the "Creme Brûlée " cone crepe. I had found this place o. Japan town and definitely headed right to this place 1st thing in Japan town. I also had ordered a Warm apple crumble crepe via the self kiosk. The customized choices made it easy to select how you wanted your dessert. It wasn't that long of a wait and it was cool to watch them torch the sugar to crystallize the top of the crepe. I selected ice cream with Nutella strawberry and Caramel crunches in my crepe. The Apple dessert I selected cornflake crust. It was so good but not too sweet but it hit the sport. Worth the stop and will definitely go again if I'm in the area or Sawtelle if I'm tin the area of Santa Monica.

Creme brûlée crepe? Yes please! Such a cute spot in Little Tokyo. You can choose a variety of fillings. The best part is watching the crepe being made and of course, the beauty of the torch turning that sugar on top a perfect golden brown! It's contactless ordering. There are two tablets in the front where you place your order. Service was pretty fast! What we ordered: Creme Brûlée with mango ice cream and mango fruit bite sizes Creme Brûlée with green tea ice cream and Nutella It'll definitely make you say, "Oh Crepe, that's delicious!"

I came here on my friend's recommendation and WOW I was blown away!! I ordered the crème brûlée crepe and everything about it was *chefs kiss*--if you're a fan of crème brûlée and a fan of crepes, you will absolutely love this! It's decently large so it's a perfect size to share with someone. The line to order and get your crepe is decently long, so be prepared, but it's definitely worth it! The store is on the smaller side so finding a seat to sit at is a bit tough but a lot of people also take their crepes to go to eat, so that's an option. Service is limited because you only really interact with an employee when picking up your order.

有時候，你我就像滄海一粟，走得太遠了，都忘了當初為何而出發～ 如果你跟我一樣，是螞蟻，喜歡吃甜甜的甜品，那這一家焦糖可麗餅，千萬別錯過，在小東京的名店，我想很多人都知道，在角落裡，一點都不起眼，但是生意好的很，非常受年輕人喜歡， 他們也有很多很有花樣的可麗餅，但我覺得還是這最original 的焦糖可麗餅，最得我心

If there was a grade higher than an A+, we'd give it that. Millet Crepe delivered to the sweet-tooth at 100%. I got the Nutella Crepe and my girl got the Crème Brûlée Crepe... Unreal!! One of the best desserts I've ever had. The ice cream, fruit, and presentation were top notch. The location and team members make the saying hidden-gem come to life. We'll for sure be back!

(Food IG @foodwithdeni) Finally tried the popular Creme Brûlée crepe from @milletcrepe !! This place was on my list and ran into their Little Tokyo location so ofc we had to try it! *We ordered their Creme Brulee Crepe w/Nutella + Strawberries filling and I understand why it's so small...it's so sweet for me but delish! *You order on a kiosk and then wait for your order. It was a bit busy when we visited so be prepared to wait. I recommend watching them make the crepes to see their process! I personally like it when they torch the creme *They also offer Premium Custard crepes w/fruits+sauces, traditional crepes and animal shaped crepes! *It's hard finding parking at Little Tokyo esp during the weekend so I recommend street parking if the parking structures are full!

This spot was opened during pandemic in LA little Tokyo. I am from SF and I love making a trip to LA for foods etc. I stop by this cutest spot and order. Custard with whipped cream and mochi bites. It was freaking delicious. I'm hooked like a crackhead lol Now I only want custard only plus Mochi bites and nothing else besides cornflakes (so a great way to give it texture). You gotta try it!!

Service was quick even though it was busy. There isn't too many seating options but it's a perfect snack to go walk around with. & the crepe was super yummy!

Loveeeee Millet Crepe! Animal Crepe with ice cream is my go to. Get the custard filling inside it's sooooo good. Great service, clean atmosphere, kinda small very limited seating but still worth the visit!

My favorites crepes. Got to know them from Yelp, at first went to sawtelle location. I have to drive over 40+ miles just to get crepes. LoL Recently just found out they open at little Tokyo, so happy, it's closer and they have some seating inside. Came at Saturday night about 9 pm, busy a lot young peoples come in line. Always love their cream brûlée crepes will be back again!

My first time trying the Creme Brûlée Crepe and it was delicious! We ordered one with custard and fresh strawberry filling to keep it classic. It was the perfect level of sweetness, although I did wish that the brûlée was torched a bit more so that the top would be crispier. The caramelization is the best part! Our crepe was around $9 and big enough that it can be shared amongst 2 people. You do have the option to add other fillings such as banana, Nutella, ice cream, whipped cream, etc. They have a few tables both inside and outside to sit and enjoy your crepe at. Cashier is a Self-service tablet, so they only accept card, no cash. The crepe was prepared quickly and they call your name when your order is ready. Parking is a bit of a pain and we had to drive around for a bit before getting lucky with street parking.

I came here on the day they revealed the Ohtani mural on the side of the miyako hotel. The streets were busy and bustling with people it reminded me of how little Tokyo looked in the summer time. When I arrived all the tables were full, inside and out. We took a minute to look at the extensive menu and then ordered at the self order tablets. After placing our order you can see them make the crepes in front of you through the window. The crepes were made pretty quickly and by the time we got out order the place was empty so we were able to sit. The crepes were nice and warm and the crepe brûlée top was crunchy and sweet. I really like how the custard is thick so it doesn't drip or run when eating it's the cone shaped wrapping makes it easy to hold and eat the crepe without a mess. I even had ice cream in mine and had no trouble with a mess ! This place was mildly sweet so I would come here again depending on the sweet tooth I'm feeling on that day !

Not big on custard so I decided to try their cinnamon sugar crepe. It was pretty good until I got to the halfway point and bit into huge pockets of just cinnamon powder. Coughed up a bunch of cinnamon all over myself and tried to remove as much of it as possible but couldn't salvage it. Not sure if this is normal or if whoever made it spilled a bunch into my crepe but it was basically inedible. Left disappointed by my friends seem to have enjoyed their creme brûlée crepes so leaving 2 stars instead of 1.

We used self-service. It was made to perfection in a short amount of time. We are impressed. We ordered the matcha mochi with strawberry cheesecake omgggggg....top tier! Crowded up in here!

It's a little hidden away off a side street, so it's best to park and walk. There are only a few tables fitting maybe 2-3 people max at each table. You order through an online kiosk and then pick up at the counter. Overall, it's very much a "take and leave" establishment as far as ambience goes. I got the crème brûlée crepe and had Nutella added to the center. It was so good! My friend got the regular crepe with Oreos and chocolate and said it was great too. I think this is a great stop if you're just casually meandering through Little Tokyo and want a sweet treat.

I've seen millet crepe, walked by and heard of it so many times but never thought it was worth it to try. Their sawtelle location is a super far drive out for me but I did not know it recently opened in little tokyo! I was in little tokyo's somi somi, looked out the window and was so surprised to see a millet crepe. I immediately told my friends, pointing "I want to go there"! Recently a coworker recently mentioned this is one of his favorite dessert places so it was also on my mind. The creme brulee crepe was soo good!! I got the recommended nutella and strawberry filling which was perfect :) it was surprisingly light and not too heavy and I mostly finished it on my own even though i was full to start off. definitely can share it with 2 people for a dessert. Wish i got to eat it slower and savor it but it was late in the evening and we were running out of time for the parking structure. Will definitely come back and enjoy it a 2nd time slower!

Staff was so friendly and attentive. This was my first time here and the crème brûlée crepe was soooo good! I'll definitely be coming back :)

Hands down my favorite crepe place of all time. It's very addicting and i always go back for seconds when I'm here. Everyone i introduce this place to is immediately hooked and in love as well. The place itself is small and a bit hidden away but the atmosphere is very cosy and cute. The service is very quick and accurate despite the very long lines. i'm obsessed with their custard cream it's so light and not too sweet. Every crepe i've tried is amazing.

Been seeing this all over my social media for years and finally tried it. Got the best selling creme brulee crepe with nutella/strawberry/banana + vanilla ice cream (my fav combo) and oh boy, did it satisfy my craving. Honestly when I first ordered it I thought I wouldnt be able to finish it because it seemed like it would be overly sweet. But, the creme brulee was not as sweet as I thought it would be! And yes, I did finish it with some help from my bf who also said it was delicious. Besides the fact that I did not taste any bananas in my crepe, I think this is a solid spot for some after-dinner dessert. I would come back again to try other crepes!

I've always seen a huge line at the Millet Crepe on Sawtelle, so I wanted to give this location a try while I was in the area. I came close to closing time and there was no line at all. Super easy to order on the tablet, and food came super quickly! Taste was good, but I would have liked more strawberries and Nutella. Honestly, I'm not the biggest custard person, and the crepe was almost full custard, so be aware of that if you order a filled crepe lol. I don't get the hype. The crepe was good but honestly, I still prefer somi somi nearby.

If I were to have the worse day in the world , there would be nothing else that can make it better except Millet Crepe. It brings me happiness and joy and even if they have a huge line which is majority of the time. Their service is quick and easy which makes it worth waiting. There has been not one time I've gone where I've seen a customer complain because the environment, the food, the people are just great. I always recommend everyone here if there ever in need of a sweet treat. They always end up coming back. My go to order is the Crème Brûlée Bear with Chocolate Ice-cream with custard ;) and corn flakes .

We came here for dessert! It was a great portion and it was sweet. It's fresh and good in flavor. Once there you order via kiosk and pay with card. Employees were informative and quick. The place does need up keeping- the last couple of times we went it was messy. Other than that we love it.

Parking: There are several parking lots nearby. Like most parking lots in LA, none of them are free and they do get pretty crowded. Exterior: There were a few tables out in a patio area for outdoor seating. Interior: The interior was very small and crowded. There were a couple of tables available but nowhere to actually line up so the line basically snaked through the tables. Service: You order on a kiosk on your own. They will call you when your order is ready. It is extremely busy so we didn't expect much from the staff. Food: I got the Apple Cinnamon Crepe. It was pretty big and had plenty of filling (including lots of apple). Overall it was pretty good. My advice is to eat the crepe quickly if you get ice cream with it. I ate it too slowly so the ice cream melted and got all over my hands. There are no public restrooms available in the area so I had to go about with sticky hands :(

I'm so surprised and happy that there's a second location closer to us! We first tried the famous Creme Brule Crepe down in Sawtelle and have been dreaming about them every since. The spot in little Tokyo is off to the side, and I true DTLA Culture, a little meek interior with a more hands-off approach with service. Once we walked in, we weren't acknowledged by the staff but nodded over to the iPad to order. We sat down and made ourselves comfortable between the 6 available tables. Wait was super quick and efficient. Taste just as magical as the first time we tried them. OBSESSED with the custard and crepe combo! They sit at around $8 each. Totally recommend!

Very unique and photogenic crepes, plenty for the matcha lover and can customize. Creamy and not overly sweet

this is a little corner store in little tokyo, but this location is bigger and air conditioned than the one on sawtelle. the service was quick and there's 2 self serve kiosks. there's also plenty of seating outside for families and groups. this time, i got the crème brûlée crepe with a cookies and cream filling along with a combo of an iced milk tea, which was a dollar or so cheaper. this is a great way to snack and chill under the sweltering heat and bustling of little tokyo. if you like sweet or not so sweet dessert, you have to try the custard! add other toppings or fillings to make it sweeter, and the custard is so delicious!
