Tried a mango cream donut. Slightly sweet and sour. They tried their best to bring it close to a real mango flavor. Cream filling was light. Service was quick. Nice ambience, few tables to sit and eat outside to enjoy the

I can die in peace after getting the Vietnamese iced coffee. The heavens are already awaiting me, and those cake jars omfg, I have found peace. My soul is ready for rapture.

I had their Tiramisu cake slice. Kinda dry. Staff was more interested in having their own conversations than taking my order. I felt like I waited forever but probably was more like 5 minutes for them to finally take my order. I also had their chocolate chip cookies. Definitely delicious.

Banana matcha latte and a Kobu kuma is my personal favorite. I love this place, and everyone who works here is so nice!

This spot is adorable. There isn't too much seating but there were bar stools with a counter all around (I'd estimate maybe 12 of those bar stools, but actually paying attention to the number of things isn't my strong suit). My drink came out pretty quickly and the person at the register, as well as the person who handed me coffee were friendly. I ordered the Dulce latte iced with almond milk. For me, it's the right ratio of ice to coffee so I was pleased. Normally I order the Oreo donut because I love all things Oreo. The donut/pastry selection looks amazing, so I'll definitely be back to try more. Side note: I came on a Sunday. It was hard to find street parking and the Japanese Village Plaza Parking was full, so I parked at the Aiso Parking garage on San Pedro St between 1st and Temple.

Jasmine tea latte and their rottis! OMG we drive all the way from Riverside just to get that bread and those pastries! Very delicious

My only gripe is that Cafe Dulce bases off of assumption, this could be an issue if you're not one to speak up and ask questions. Menu: The menu is not really visible, and with a long line behind me I felt some pressure. I quickly made an order to get out of the way; the cashiers were wonderful and quickly assisted guests. Having a full visible menu speaks for itself, relieve some stress for the team and help add items to the point of sale. Honestly I would've spent more had I known there was a menu, I didn't see it until I was leaving. Sweetener: My coffee was strong and I honestly didn't know what the bottle was, because it looked like a clear bottle of idk. Haha. Seating: it's small, but it is what it is. I'd move the trashcan away from the seating for a more comfortable enjoyment. Would I recommend this place? Yes.

The guy at the register was cool. The people in the back though .... I was the first to order and last to receive my order lol they waited until it got busy to make my drink... and at that they got my order wrong lmao. Ordered a London fog and got a Hong Kong. Nobody apologized nor did they replace my drink. First and last time I come here . Don't get me wrong the tea was good but the employees... incompetent. Except for the tall guy with the glasses who worked the front . Literally all it took to ruin my experience after he had given me such great help when I was asking about the teas. Make sure to verify your order cause once they make it they won't switch it out :) . I give it a few months before this place gets shut down :)
I was wandering around little Tokyo after I got off of work this morning and found Dulce cafe! I got the fruity pebble buttercream donut hole, a blueberry matcha latte and also got one of the best breakfast burritos I’ve ever had all for under $15! This place might be my new jam everything was really good! Flavor, texture and freshness! The guy who took my order was friendly, patient and helpful when I couldn’t decide what I wanted to drink instead of coffee. I will definitely be back!

I've been coming here for the fruity pebble donut holes for years! So many yummy treats, it's hard to choose. Expect a line and a good crowd as it is located in the Japanese Village of Little Tokyo. So worth it imo

A cafe located in Little Tokyo/Nihonmura Plaza. It's a local cafe that doesn't seem to have any connection to Japan.It's open from early morning, so I stopped by for breakfast while walking around Little Tokyo.There were no Japanese people, so I couldn't speak Japanese, but it was crowded. It's a popular store.Indeed, the food and drinks were excellent.(The only thing that happens when you order a burrito is that there is cilantro in it, which I don't like. It seems that the standard recipe for authentic Mexican burritos is to include cilantro in it.)The pastries looked delicious too.We had a relaxing morning on the terrace while looking at the lanterns.Thank you for the meal.
