    Nice little shop. Seems like lots of locals. Sadly the mochi was just too sweet for me.

    Cute little mom and pop type of establishment serving mochi and other goodies. Unfortunately they're CASH ONLY. The lady behind the counter was very nice. However it was kind of hard to understand what each of the products were. It didn't really hit me until after I ate all my mochi that most were the same flavor-wise except for the beautiful design of the mochi on the house. Makes sense now why she said the mochi flavor is a plain inside. Beautifully crafted you can definitely tell they put time into their products.

    Amazing little hidden gem for fresh mochi! The outside is a bit hidden but it's right across the street from Azuma. Beautiful mochi designs that are seasonal.

    A friend picked up some mochi for me for my birthday. I liked that the mochi was soft and you could taste the high quality through the flavors. My favorite ones were strawberry and red bean. They have cute decorations, and the six pack came in a simple/cute box. Would recommend it as a nice gift or treat to try.
