    Brought my girl here for her birthday. We live in Lancaster, so it was a big deal for us, but we felt the food was absolutely amazing. I loved the setting. Beautiful view, and I love dark places and relaxing music. The service was top tier. Everything came out very quick. It was perfect, for us, and we plan on going back sooner than later.

    literally the best place ever!! if you want your life to be permanently changed with the power of moe, please stop by asayoru cafe!! most fun, magical place in the world. every girl is so so so nice and everyone is trained very well in providing wholesome fanservice. some of my friends ive taken worry that itll be a bit awkward since theyve never interacted with "cuteness" on this level before, but all the maids are so professional that they can adjust to everyone's level. ive had almost every maid and every single one always made everyone feel smile, laugh, and most importantly feel comfortable. on a more personal note, this place honestly helped me get over my issue of talking with people one on one, specifically with girls! i am much more confident in public now and it's definitely partly because of how kind the maids are here. i think my favorite part of asayoru cafe is seeing maids come up to you and ask about your hobbies, likes, your outfit, etc. it's really wonderful! new menu is so delish and the desserts are to die for! chekkis are so fun, especially homework ones!! and performances always get the whole cafe together as one!!! there's nothing like this place... please support this amazing cafe!
