Little Tokyo

Nestled betwixt Downtown (proper), the Arts District and, ahem, Skid Row, to form a misfit tetrad of walkable neighborhoods, Little Tokyo is home to your next favorite restaurant coffee shop bar spot. Est. 1886 (i.e. in LA terms, pre-historic), it’s one of few remaining US Japantowns, and the well-documented taciturn cultural pride has protected its authenticity, skewing it less tourist-trap and more Taste of Tokyo.

With excellent coffee and none of the pretension, Demitasse offers a wide variety of standard drinks and signature specialties. A few standouts include Kyoto cold brew drip, lavender hot chocolate (served with toasted marshmallow), and a delicious minty "iced cubano." The pastries here are also quite good, made fresh daily by Sugarplum Bakery. The decor is modern and warm, and there's room to sit. Try the coffee flight for a unique Demitasse experience.
