Note that I’m not a fan of this kind of desserts. I much prefer custard or cheesecake. But tasting these flavors were delicious. Also remember that mango is not a cheap fruit and so these desserts are not inexpensive. This isn’t the one dollar ice cream cone from McDonald’s most of the price point seemed about 5 to 7 dollars in cost my wife and children enjoy the different flavors the different textures and would highly recommend this location and looking forward to going back if you don’t like the flavor of mango this might be a difficult place to find satisfaction I love mango and so does the family so ice creams Jellies and all things mango and dessert were well received parking is difficult at this location because of the very busy retail shops and Great Wall of China grocery store although there is a parking structure just know that getting parking right in front of the store might be difficult. The cleanliness inside the store is OK. I always feel like they have a table or two that has a spill on it that isn’t yet being Attended to however, I always feel they’re short staffed as well just because there’s typically a pretty consistent flow of patrons.
This place gets crazy busy on Saturday night. We were lucky to find a table after placing our order. The line went out the door. I’m surprised since there are like 50 other boba tea places nearby yet everyone comes to this one. We ordered red dragon fruit icy, coconut jelly with mango, mango delightful, and durian pancake. I really liked all of the desserts. Durian pancake had a nice crepe like texture and was tasty. Durian smell not super prominent. Mango delightful had large, fresh chunks of mango. Coconut jelly with mango had a nice variety of goodies. You can’t go wrong with these items for dessert. Prices were good. Customer service was quick and efficient.
This place is packed in Sunday afternoon.The sample on the window display looks so yummy. You walk in the store, you will want to buy the beautiful drinks and snacks.I ordered Mango Pancake and Passion Fruit and Mango drink. They are light and delicious.
Truly an excellent experience! The guy behind the counter was very knowledgeable and helpful. We can’t eat pork/ gelatin and he gave us a run down of our options from the menu. We had the mango pancake and the J4. They were delicious!
For a chain, they done real nice. Mango sago, good. 4.5 star. The other one with dragon fruit in the pic is a 5 star.I enjoyed it — I think the last time I had it was in Taipei (Seattle). Both very good.
Some of the best desserts in Htown! If you love mango, come and check this place out. They have another location in the Galleria mall right next to the escalator on the food court level
So many tough choices, so hard to pick! Everything looked so good and I regret not coming back to try something else. I got the mango and coconut with sago and it was so delicious and fresh, it wasn't enough for me! The sago was cooked perfectly and it was a nice refreshing dessert to end the hot day.Customer service and the speed I got my dessert was on point too. Only downside is that it was packed when we went in, so no room for seating so we took it to-go, but I just saw it as it is a popular place and oh so worth it, and it definitely was.Will definitely be returning next time I am in the area.
Fresh Mango in every dessert item! There’s lots of options but staff is there to help :) Seating is tight but every item was carefully bagged to go. Everything we tried was a fave!
