Cafe Knotted Westfield Century City

One of the best donuts in LA—Cafe Knotted Century City nails it! Originally from South Korea, they’re famous for their soft, cream-filled donuts, and now I’m a total fan. Service was fantastic: super welcoming team, helpful with suggestions, and fast even during a busy afternoon. Grabbed two drinks, 8 donuts, and 2 cookies—each one was fresh, pillowy, and bursting with smooth, not-too-sweet cream. The cookies were a tasty bonus too. Delicious all around. Can’t wait to come back!

Whimsical, donut-centric and not overly sweet!! Cafe Knotted is a beloved dessert cafe from Seoul that’s now open in Los Angeles at Westfield Century City and soon in the Arts District. They’re known for its hand-crafted cream-filled donuts, fresh milk cream, and playful design. Handmade daily We tried… Donuts: Pumpkin Spice, Dubai Chocolate (MY FAVE - standout with that extra crunch), Black Sesame, Milk Cream, Roasted Sweet Corn, Biscoff, Tiramisu Cookies: Miso Toffee and Matcha White Chocolate Drinks: Chestnut Tiramisu Latte and Knotted Strawberry Matcha Latte with Cream Top

I really like this place. I always love a good donut. I like where they are located too. They are not on top of other places like some spots are. Staff here is really friendly as well. I would definitely recommend and am coming back!

The overrated reviews from tiktok brought me here and wasn't impressed. The best pastry was the oreo filling and the rest were meh. Nice atmosphere and disappointed at employee who doesn't greet guests as they walk in. Maybe she was sick or in a bad mood but at least acknowledge with a smile. I greeted 2x and was ignored. You would expect above and beyond service from its location but then again its century city. Oct16/1:30pm

Finally, made it to Cafe Knotted & love their donut! I only tried the orginal cream filling and their cream wasn't too sweat at all! Their doughnut was soft enough that keep you want to bite more! Honestly, one was more than enough and price was reasonable! Parking at the mall is free for 1 hour and plenty of time to go to the little cute Cafe!

This is my third visit to Knotted. Now that the opening hype has calmed down, I finally tried their donuts. Honestly, I wouldn’t waste my carbs and calories here. I ordered the Dubai Chocolate and the Matcha. The pistachio donut was great, probably better than most dubai chocolate pastries I’ve had. But the matcha donut? Just sweet bread with cream & zero matcha flavor. Hard pass. Service was just okay. Maybe it was near the end of their shift, and the staff was tired, they had uninterested look. And the price $12 for two egg-sized donuts feels steep. There are definitely better spots I’d recommend first.

We had visited the mall about 2 weeks prior to trying it because the line was so long the first time we saw it. This time we were among the first customers in line on a Sunday, we had lined up about 15 minutes before opening. We tried several flavors: the Strawberry Milk Cream, Dubai Chocolate and Raspberry- all were good- not too sweet. The only criticism I had was that because it's a cafe and we were with a couple of younger kids, it would have been good to have a few more drink options. Overall it was a yummy experience.
