    Alex's Churros is a street side Churro Stand right next to Secret Tacos on San Gabriel Boulevard at the corner of Awesome Churros Fried to order right on the spot! We happened upon this place when we came by to eat at Secret Tacos just next door on the same street corner! These guys are totally focused on churros prepared several different ways and other deep fried desserts including fried plantains, deep fried oreos and even funnel cakes! To make things easy to order, there is a giant banner of a menu posted with prices and pictures. We loved our fresh and crispy churro order, and look forward to trying out the plantains too next time. Not sure how we missed that! LOL!

    $8 for crispy, sugary, freshly made churros! Literally feet away from Secret Tacos across the street. So glad I don't have to go to Montebello for churros anymore :)

    Pretty legit new dessert shop! Love anything taro & yam ball related so I tend to beeline to these…read moreplaces. Went twice in one week already. Desserts are single person portioned and not overly sweet. Lots of coconut based desserts and more "healthier" options. Flavor was pretty on point too. Bought their SPECIAL the first time and it had "the works"~they allowed me to take out beans I don't like so that was nice. Jellies were chewy and everything blended together nicely. Went a second time and only bought the mango sago with less sugar and it was PERFECTLY REFRESHING. Mango was super sweet. If you go at night it can sometimes get super busy. No tables the first time I went but pretty empty during regular weekdays. Workers are always pretty polite and helpful. Parking lot also has reasonable parking.

    I give this place an overall 3.5/4…read more Mango Black Jelly Coconut Milk: Nothing unique and particular, just mango and black jelly. The mango is sweet but very stringy. Signature Taro Balls and Grass Jelly: the staff recommended me this after knowing I was looking for something warm, but turns out they ONLY serve this COLD. Luckily the red bean, glutinous rice balls and sago, were warm, so it saved this dessert a bit. I asked for no peanuts. It came with another type of clear jelly, it was very sweet. I didn't really enjoy it. The glutinous rice balls look like they are store bought very uniform. The price itself is nice, but the portion/bowl is kind of small. But if you ordered something with glutinous rice or some sorts of carbs in there, you will still feel full. Service was just alright. When I caught the mistake that my dessert is served as cold on the receipt, I immediately went up but was told that they have started making my order already (only about a minute since I made my order). The place itself is very cute, got great decorations. We went on a Saturday night and they were super busy, but they make their orders SUPER fast. It would be EXTREMELY helpful if they can list out the ingredients so people know what they are eating, and which ones can be served as hot to avoid confusion. Overall, I think it is not a must visit place, but if you are in the area looking for Chinese dessert then it's one of the few places to try.

    The soufflé pancakes never fail to impress, and it's nice that they have new variations seasonally…read more I don't know why they retired the No. 5 Milk Tea long ago but the No. 9 has been good so far. Finally tried the Uji Matcha Latte, which tasted as it should. Underground parking is always convenient here, and the atmosphere is great for just hanging out with a drink, nice and bright with comfortable tables. Just wish they were on Hungry Panda!

    I had a lovely experience at Motto Tea Cafe (San Gabriel). I ordered the Creme Brûlée Soufflé…read morePancake ($17.50). It's a fluffy, jiggly pancake topped with creme brûlée and glazed sugar. WOW! Each bite felt like a warm, decadent cloud. (Important Note: These Pancakes have a LONG wait. Each Jiggly Pancake had an expected 20 to 30 minute preparation time. Also, I recommend eating it dine-in. If you wait too long, these fluffy treats promptly get mushy.) I arrived at Motto Tea Cafe (San Gabriel) on Wednesday (11AM - Opening Time). Parking is easy. There's an underground lot for extra parking. Customers primarily order at the self-service kiosk. Customers must pay with card and insert phone number in the kiosk, but Customers can pay cash at the counter. Dine in customers grab a metal number that's stacked between the kiosks. Staff spoke limited English, but Staff is professional, diligent, and accommodating. My order took 24 minutes. As mentioned, I love the Creme Brûlée Soufflé Pancake ($17.50). It's plated and presented lovingly and seductively. It's memorable. With each motion, I bit hard onto its fluffy, lightly sweetened body. I savored how the creme brûlée's creamy sauce dribbled. It's layered, supple, and thick. I shake the plate. It dances. On ambiance, Motto Tea Cafe (San Gabriel) is comfortable. There's about seven interior tables and two counters. The music is slow-tempo and gentle. And it's clean. There's also a gender neutral restroom for customers. Overall, I created lovely memories at Motto Tea Cafe (San Gabriel). The wait is extremely long, but I found contentment at this journey's end. If you love wiggly pancakes & have plenty of time to spare, this is an easy recommendation. 4.8 out of 5

The matcha w/ red bean taiyaki is good, but it doesn't need the extra flair, honestly. So tasty on its own. I'm not a huge ice cream fan, but this was really enjoyable. Service was quick too, if that is important to anybody. Definitely will come back!

    I was excited to try this ice cream shop out since it's similar to Somi Somi, so I went with my…read morebrothers after we finished dinner. It's a small shop with a few tables, but luckily, we came at a time when it wasn't too crowded. We ordered the ube and matcha swirl as well as a taiyaki with cookie butter. The cashier was quick and friendly. Total came out to $9 which is pricey in my opinion, but I thought the taste would make up for it. Ube and matcha swirl: Honestly, the ice cream was just okay. I definitely could taste the ube flavor, but the matcha flavor was weak. Additionally, the ice cream was not creamy. It was slightly icey. Somisomi's ice cream is much creamier, so I was disappointed with With Love's quality. Taiyaki with cookie butter: I really liked their taiyaki! It was crispy and slightly sweet. The cookie butter was great, but I just wish there was more filling. I do think their taiyaki is better than Somisomi's! Overall, With Love was a nice place to try for the first time, but I don't think I'll be back. I still prefer Somisomi, especially since they are actually cheaper than With Love with better quality.
