The vibes were immaculate.
Firstly, the service. The waiters were so nice, friendly and patient. They explained the menu well and treated me well. 10/10 awesome servers.
Secondly, the food. I. Love. Mochi. So I'm a bit picky, but overall I really enjoyed what I ordered.
1. The vegan mitarashi dango
2. The milk tart mochi (vegan)
3. Iced Americano
I didn't know what to expect with the Mitarashi dango but boy was I happy. It was soft and squishy, but also slightly crispy. The sauce was buttery, salty and sweet and basically everything just worked.
The milk tart mochi was super soft and squishy and the filling reminded me of milk tart, but not too sweet with a hint of cinnemon. The only negative I have to say about it was that it was a bit grainy, which I didn't like.
All in all though I'd definitely go again, and order again ^^
Feels like a bit of Tokyo, right here in ct. Clean well designed, Instagram friendly restaurant.
After eating a lot for lunch, all I could manage was the Japanese cheesecake and mochi with macha iced tea. Everything I tasted was just ideal, takes you back to japan in an instant. I will definitely go back here to try more of the menu.

What an excellent little place! Perfect for a light lunch, breakfast or snack!
My husband has been to Japan and always tells me he wants to go back for the food and we tried this place today and oh my greatnesss… the mochi! Excellent.
Amazing flavours, well priced and authentic (according to hubby) very close to what he was craving from Japan.
We sampled a few of the pan (milk bread) options, some matcha tea and bought a whole bunch of mochi. The pink nesquick flavour was our favourite. A must visit spot for some yummy unique treats.
Such friendly staff, quick service, great dairy free recommendations and just a cute place to try unique food!
I was in this place a few months ago, and I enjoyed it! The place is decorated very nicely, and the pretty-looking desserts only complete the atmosphere. I liked the matcha ice cream, and I highly recommend it for tasting! It was moderately sweet, and the delicious and sugary toppings in Oreo crumbles, motti and tapioca balls just complimented the whole flavour. The iced latte coffee, however, was rather mediocre. Mochi Mochi is quite a pricey place, as can be demonstrated by the small mochi balls, which cost R15 each. However, it is worth it. You will have an excellent chance to familiarize yourself with Japanese desserts and savoury foods. I will definitely revisit this place soon!
It really has a unique ambiance which in turn I loved. Certainly a place I recommend for anyone in Cape Town or visiting Cape Town.
I am without a doubt going back for the delicious treats and tasty foods.
Cutest little store. All desserts are a must try. What a beautiful experience!
Thoroughly enjoyed everything we ordered from the croque Monsieur to the hotdogs and truffles for dessert. Great little gem for some delicious different treats

Stepping into the space, creates a whimsical feeling, and everyone is welcomed. Loved that Mochi Mochi had a variety of vegan options. Which meant that the bill became pretty steep quickly 🤣. However, this experience was worth it!
The dessert mochi: the salted caramel stood out for me, as it reminded me of the caramel bars that you could store in the fridge, which I use to enjoy as a child.
The Japanese cheesecake: light and fluffy. The flavour of the cake is so delicate. The caramel sauce is an additional option. However, I found the sauce was too salty for me.
Dango: crunchy outer layer, airy inner layer, wonderful caramel/toffee like sauce. Bite size perfection.
Theonista Cream soda: very subtle. Next time I’d prefer soda/sparkling water, as this will assist to cleanse my palate between each dish.
The environment has many seating options, and are family friendly. The staff are friendly and helpful as well.
Please note: The space is pretty popular, and therefore brace yourself for the queue. The downside of a placed order, is that if you would like to try another item off their menu, you’d have to queue again. (Then cueing an internal debate, which would go as follows; how desperately do I want the item and do I have the luxury of time to stand in a queue again?).
Also, the earlier during the day you arrive at Mochi Mochi, you’ll be able to order from their entire menu, as the day progresses items get sold out!
