Anteiku Cafe — Restaurant in Baldwin Park

On my trip to Hollywood Horror Nights, I stopped by this cafe and was instantly blown away. The drinks looked phenomenal online but you know how deceiving photos can be. Surprisingly the drinks looked just as beautiful in person as they did in photos.

The cafe is clean, open, welcoming and cozy. I’m not a big fan of anime myself but the way it was beautifully showcased in the cafe was intriguing to explore while waiting.

The drinks are so beautifully crafted and authentically catered to what the customer would like. The owner, Luis, has to be one of the most inspiring people i’ve ever met. He took the time to educate me on the craft to make a delicious creamy matcha, which I struggle making at home. His values and beliefs as an individual also showcases so beautifully within his business and how he runs it. The conversations were refreshing, educational and engaging. His customer service skills are outstanding.

I ordered a Haisens Coffee (which Luis makes his own horchata by hand , himself) and a Gomu Gomu Matcha. My sister ordered an All Might Smile. All of the drinks were flavorful, creamy and have the perfect amount of bitterness and sweetness.

I will be visiting everytime I pass by LA. I hope my experience influences others to try it out as well. You will not be disappointed. This cafe sincerely deserves all of the success it...

The first iced matcha latte I've had here tasted too light but Luis made it stronger this time around I was able to taste the earthy, grassy notes. Smooth, not grainy. Had it on an empty stomach both times, but got a "tea high" this time around. It's definitely an acquired taste and recommend first timers to try it with a syrup.

The lemon posset came in a small lemon bowl. It was my first time having it and would describe it as a sweet and sour yogurt. Small, refreshing treat on a hot day.

The place is very clean--including the bathroom! There's a shelf with manga I've yet to look at. And, I got a couple of stickers from the treasure box by the register after paying.

Lots of interesting items on the menu I'm looking forward to trying. And, excited to see how the...
