This is a great small shop that's known for its home made mochi of malt different varieties. My bro recommended it and did not disappoint... had the sampler, blueberry, chocolates, non filled rainbow and sampler. We got the day old non filled rainbow ones, and was still soft, squishy and yummy. The mochi was not too sweet, subtle sweetness. The chocolate was better than the blueberry. The prices was very reasonable, we got like 10 contains for around $60. We'll go back.
Delicious fresh mochi! Constantly craving this place!

Little store that is packed with good feels. The mochi are perfect in texture and flavor, and the strawberry filling mochi is seriously one of the best.

Traditional old shops, their factory is next to it, where you can buy the freshest Japanese snacks.
A must-stand place in Little Tokyo.😊

I arrived at noon on a Saturday and the line wasn’t too long. Service was very quick and friendly once it was my turn. Pro-tip: even if it seems like they have run out of a flavor, make sure to ask. Customers behind me asked about a couple flavors I had assumed were sold out and they did have some in the back. Doh! The mochi was delicious and not too sweet.

There was a long line so I was hoping it'd be good, but the mochis and red bean were too sweet and tasted artificial

Girl working the counter was so nice! Patiently explained all the flavors and made sure I had a great experience! I visited early today and it was great!!
It was an ok mochi shop. Vintage and old looking but many items didn't have prices which was constantly annoying to ask what are the prices. Mochi taste like any other mochi treat. I was disappointed that they use artificial dyes though

Review from my 2023 visit: Can't beat getting fresh mochi from the source. BF and I queued up in the line outside on Sunday night an hour before they closed. Due to rising COVID cases, they're limiting indoor capacity to 6 people max, so that definitely adds to the long line. It does move along, so the wait isn't too bad.
They have prepackaged mochi that you can find at various grocery stores, so we opted for the box of 20 fresh pieces instead ($40). Note that while the box of 20 is $40, if you pick certain mochi, they are considered pricier than the average $2, so your total will go up. And there was no signage or verbal communication from the store, so I was so confused after we went home and I noticed we paid $43 instead of $40. Apparently, mochi like the strawberry, blueberry or green tea are actually $2.25 or $2.50, so our 20-piece box was more than the advertised $40.
We decided to get two of everything and one of whatever only had one piece left. The employee helping us was very nice in asking if we wanted a second piece for the ones that only had one left in the display case, so while three mochi types only had one left, she went and got more for us, so that our box had two of everything. Out of the ones I tried, I like the blueberry gyhuhi, mango gyhuhi, blueberry anko, and strawberry anko the most. I usually like the rainbow suama as well, but the ones we got were a little hard on the outside and not as qq as it usually is. Minus one star for the quality of the suama and the undisclosed various pricing of the fresh mochi.
I believe they can also wrap your box up nicely with pink paper and white ribbon along with a nice Fugetsu-Do bag if you ask for it to be wrapped. Not sure if there's an additional cost as they didn't ask us if we wanted the box wrapped (we noticed the person in front of us was waiting for her three smaller boxes to be wrapped).
Jtown parking is never easy, so take your pick of street parking (good luck!) or structure parking.

Have tried a lot of mochi in my life, but Fugetsu-Do truly sets a new mochi standard. Highly recommended, our entire family was impressed by the Mochi Magic. 🙇🏻♂️
