    It's usually pretty busy so expect a line and ordering. I do wish that the menu included descriptions of each item. I asked about one of the items, and while the staff was friendly and welcoming, she had a difficult time explaining what was in it. This location is much more spacious than their other one, and it seemed clean and well-maintained. I enjoyed the dessert so despite the wait, I'd definitely come back.

    This is your mom's favorite Che, but make it modern. We came on a Sunday afternoon and there was a line to the door. It moves quickly, but the shop gets pretty busy. My mom and aunt got the house special and we also tried their sora coconut jelly. Pricing is approximately $8 a dessert and made to order. My fiancé really enjoyed the coconut jelly. The one in the fresh coconut is better imo compared to the glass jars

    This is the second time we've visited this location. You can order ahead through online or order in store. I suggest online unless you want to see if they have a special going on. The first time the line was outside the door and thankfully it was not too much of a wait. We ordered soo much and had to wait an additional time. Lots of people ordering. This second time, we ordered ahead and came during the middle of the afternoon. Was in and out in less than five minutes. We ordered both the Bake Bánh and Dessert Che (Drink). Ambiance it gets busy especially when they have promotional specials. Tables can get sticky and dirty throughout the day, so choose when you want to come if you want to eat there. Che Faves: Pandan Grass Jelly (tastes a little like coffee) and I had the option for ice to be put on the the side so can regulate if I wanted the drink watery. I end up putting ice in the beginning and when I had 1/4 of the drink left. I hate it when ice melts and drinks becoming tasteless. You won't get that with their drinks. We've also tried the three colors and avocado one. I'll stick to my Pandan Grass Jelly. Baked Bánh Faves: These have like a mochi texture so if you are one of those people with texture issues be aware it can get chewy. But it's worth it. You can eat it warmed up or room temperature. B1: Palm Sugar. Not everyone's taste but I like it. It is not too sweet at all B3: Cassava. This is my #1. It stays true to how Cassava should taste and the texture is on point. I get more of this one than anything. B4: Taro. This one is good as well. The Taro makes this one less chewy because it's sort of like a filling. Still good and not too sweet. Do not compare it to Ube Filipino desserts, because it does not taste like our kind of Ube. B6: Flan Cheesecake: This was good. It's not like the Filipino kind but close enough. Worth a try. They also put syrup on the side. Jello: J1: Pandan Coconut: Best one to get. Their jello is not like American Jello. There's more of bite to it. It's still a good texture. Just doesn't dissolve easily like American JELLO. J3: Longan: This one was a weird one for me. I know how fresh longan taste and how the ones in a can also taste. This doesn't taste of either. You get 3 Logans per jello. Try it and let me know what you think. Will I come back? YES, even though it's like a 45 min drive OC traffic!

    Got the house special, which overall I was not particularly impressed. Though you can smell & taste the durian flavor, it was overpowering and wish there were actual durian pieces instead. And I only got one piece of jackfruit, boo. The longan jelly wasn't bad, the jelly was on the stiffer side (not the classic jello texture). Appreciated the many longan pieces in that! I'd be down to come again and try their other offerings. On the plus side, the place is clean with plenty of seating. And parking lot available.

    Stopped by Bake & Che after lunch for dessert. This location seemed noticeably bigger than the other one I've been to, and surprisingly, it wasn't nearly as busy. The other location always seems to have a line every time I visit, so it was nice being able to walk right in. I ordered the C1 House Special Chè Đặc Biệt, and it was exactly what I was looking for after a meal - a refreshing and sweet (but not overly sweet) dessert. The shop itself felt clean and spacious, with plenty of seating if you want to hang out and enjoy your dessert.

    Love stopping by and grabbing some dessert before we head home. Simple menu and we always order to go without ice. We add the ice when we get home so it's not melted. Quick service and plenty of seating inside.

    Great service. Very quiet. Durian and jackfruit drinks. A kaleidoscope of flavors. Very convenient and freeway close.

    What a refreshing dessert spot! We ordered to-go, and they thoughtfully included a bag of ice on the side. We tried the C4 - Pandan Grass Jelly, and C2 - Thai Dessert. The pandan was on the lighter side, with a more subtle flavor. I enjoyed the Thai Dessert more, it had a great mix of different jellies, including jackfruit and longan, which added nice variety and texture. We also tried the Pandan Coconut and Coffee Coconut Jellies (J1 & J2), both were really good as well!

    Hands down, the service at this location was outstanding! I signed up through the app and was supposed to receive a free cake, but for some reason I couldn't redeem it when ordering online. The male staff member assisted immediately, unlike some other locations that simply say the cake is out of stock. He went the extra mile by contacting customer service and resolving the issue right away. In the end, we placed our order in person at the counter and were able to receive the free cake. One of the items we ordered was the Trio Bean Combination, which was delicious. Sweetness level and ice quantity can also be customized, which is always a plus. The café itself was clean and tidy, making the visit even more pleasant. The only downside is that there is no outdoor seating area.

    Been wanting to try this place due to the hype but everytime we visit there were long lines. Luckily I found out they have an app and decided to order online. Came to pick up and it was fast and easy. Got their house special which was very good and not too sweet. Especially love that they added the peanuts. I also got their taro cake and jello and it was also yummy. If you order on the app the first time there is a free promo for cake. Definitely check this place out!

    We always go to this location since it's less crowded and the staff are very nice and fast with orders. Highly recommended that you order online in advance if there are BOGO deals. The store is clean and well organized. Our favorites are che 3 mau, che Thai and their jellos. They are always fresh made to order and flavorful :)

    2025 and 2026 Spring Break stops for desserts. I recall buying the avocado Che and liked it last year and this time, we grabbed the special and Thai Che. This year is lacking a bit. Che thai was missing for me. House Special has durian in it mixed with classic combo of everything Che and durian scent is strong but thankfully my lil one loves it! Service avail if needed or self order through kiosk. We come for convenience as DaVien is next door and accommodates or boys with their drink preferences and coffee for us makes this location a win!

    Grace C.

    Tried their Special Che which is a combination of jellies, beans, nuts, and durian but you can opt out of whatever you don't want, less sweet, no ice. Still a little too sweet for me but tasty with all the toppings. This is similar to Che you can get from many of the other Vietnamese shops in the area so nothing unique about it. The shop also sells some mini cakes and jellies too.

The interior is quite spacious, with vibrant yellow and green chairs that create a cozy atmosphere reminiscent of a Vietnamese café. We ordered the Mango Chè and Thai Chè. The Mango Chè leaned more toward a smooth mango purée with fewer fresh mango cubes than expected, while the Thai Chè was exactly what I had hoped for. One thoughtful touch was the presentation--the ice was served separately, allowing the dessert portion to remain generous without being diluted or taking up space in the bowl. The only downside was the seating area along the side wall. Several of the seat cushions appeared quite worn and noticeably dirty, which detracted from the overall dining experience.

Soft jazz music played throughout the café, creating a peaceful ambiance that made it easy to settle in and enjoy the space. One of my favorite things about this café was the variety of drinks available. There were so many interesting options to choose from, and I decided to try the Sakura Latte. It was beautifully presented and had a delicate floral flavor that was both unique and refreshing. You can tell that a lot of thought goes into both the taste and presentation of the drinks. The dessert display was equally impressive. The cake case was filled with a variety of beautiful, aesthetic-looking cakes and pastries that immediately caught my attention. Everything looked carefully crafted and almost too pretty to eat. Even if you're not planning on ordering dessert, it's worth taking a look at the display because it's truly eye-catching. The café is also incredibly photogenic. There are plenty of aesthetic corners, cute décor elements, and picture-perfect spots throughout the space, making it great for Instagram photos. The combination of natural lighting and tasteful interior design creates a welcoming environment that's both stylish and comfortable. They also offer a 30% off student discount which is so generous! I appreciate the friendly service and letting me know about the discount :) Overall, this café is a great place to study, work remotely, catch up with friends, or simply unwind with a drink and dessert. Between the smooth jazz music, wide selection of beverages, beautiful cakes, Instagram-worthy interior, and generous student discount, it's definitely a spot I'll be returning to again.

He gave my mom attitude saying that he only sell the single ones. If she insisted in buying the tray of 6 then it will be extra cost. Lol in that case we rather get in singles..duh! More convenient to eat...crazy! Afterwards, when he noticed that my mom was buying more stuff, he kinda stopped with his attitude. Like yo...chill. One or two items, you're still making money. That how you became you today!!! I gonna give this place another chance. In the future, if he still act such ways..it's goodbye for good. For sure, I will lower the ratings as well. Place is lucky that although the service went down but the quality still the same.
