Café Mak - Los Angeles, California

Anish Thakkar (Doc Thakkar)

Had a wonderful time here attending a Japanese conversation meetup that’s regularly hosted here on Thursday evenings.

I enjoyed the free / safe parking, the overall studious vibe, and the service. The chicken avocado sandwich was tasty, and the evening went smoothly. I’ve had their coffee in the past - solid - but didn’t go for it tonight.

Would definitely recommend this place for a date, a study date, or general hang!

Comfortable library workspace aesthetic. Warm lighting with beautiful decorations. Delicious variety on their menu (most items are pricey, however). Friendly staff, large selection of seating options, clean restrooms and plenty of charging outlets. And they're open until midnight! Only negative is their internet frequently goes out (can be really annoying when you're working). Overall, no complaints. I've been coming here for a year and I've enjoyed all of my experiences. Would highly recommend.

Awesome place to study, more so of a study spot than food it seems. However I haven't tried much of their menu

매우 친절한 서버(?)

LA도 미국도 차음인 여행자라서 영어도 팁 문화도 잘 몰라서.. 한국어로 어버버 주문했는데..
친절하게 주문 잘 받아주셨습니다. 카운터 봐주시는 분 정말정말 감사해요!!!
한국식 카페에 익숙해서 실수를 많이 저질렀습니다. 죄송해요🥺

내부 자리에 앉아서 벨을 누르면 주문받으러 오십니다.

티 양이 많습니다. 차를 뜨겁게 유지해주는 잔이 특이하게 생겼어요.

*내부에 에어컨은 따로 없는 것 같습니다. 건조해서 그늘에만 있어도 시원한 LA기후 특징 때문인 것 같습니다.

The female worker was rude during the time I placed order. Visually the coffee doesn’t look presentable if you dine-in. I ordered 3 coffees and 3 slices of pastries. The total came close to $60. But the pastries was dry and hard to scoop out with a spoon. And they served the coffee in a to-go cups. The atmosphere was nice but I do not recommend this location. The parking is tough too. There are other coffee stores with better service and food around the same neighborhood.

If you want quiet, this place might not be it. People get into lively conversation that can a bit loud. Food was good and prices remained somewhat stable in comparison to other similar restaurants/cafes. It has this library and beginning of 20th century Victorian decor. Food offerings are mostly sandwiches, coffees, teas, and korean food (semi fast food).

One time a friend took me here when I was super hungover, and the vegetarian flat noodle plate was the best thing I’d ever tasted. Their garlic bread is super yummy, too!!

If you’re not here to eat, a simple cup of espresso is perfect for lounging and soaking up the vibes. This feels like a hidden paradise right in the middle of downtown LA. The vintage/antique mismatched furniture is also delightful.

This cafe deserves a 3.5 and mostly because it is cute and quaint. The outside dining area is cute and has large bougainvilleas. The iced soy milk latte was ok. They don’t have oat milk. Their coffee pastries are very limited. I chose a decent chocolate cake that looked like someone’s birthday cake lol. They serve meals after 1130 am so this may be what makes this cafe popular. The lady that took my order was nice. They have ample parking in the rear.
