Finally!! I have heard so much and have craved Halo Halo…read more Pretty busy on a Friday mid afternoon. Lots of food traffic with majority of customers coming for Halo Halo or drinks. The mini Upside Down Halo Halo was the perfect size and wasn't like a mini at all lol. Had a taste of brown sugar, included boba, jellies, scoop of ice cream, the Corn Flakes, flan. The cupcakes still taste good after 2 days. Texture and taste didn't change at all. Milo Cupcake: Buttercream reminded me of Milo on point. Ube Leche Flan Cupcake: Omg the taste of the Ube was Soo good and still moist. The flan on top made it extra yummy.

This is one week old review. It was on our list to try since I love halo halo. This place…read moreactually deserve 3.5 stars but since overall experience is positive, it round up to 4. The place is small but cozy and they have a giant couch in the middle for lounging. The price is high compare to other places, with the exception of their daily special tea. Their tea is actually cheap. I love love the jasmine calamonsi tea, so refreshing for $3. The halo halo was overwhelmed with ice cream, need more of other ingredients. The monster oreo shake was delicious but it is not worth it for that price. The ube flan cupcake was just ube cupcake and flan stack on top. It kinds of lacking the cohesiveness. Overall, I would come back just for that tea.

Visited here for something sweet after lunch with the fam. This spot was only a minute away from…read morethe plaza we were at. They offer Hong Kong desserts, so we were eager to try this spot. Parking: They're located in a high foot traffic plaza, so finding a parking spot can be difficult. Ambiance/Environment: They have a small space with a decent amount of indoor seating. The tables and seats were kept clean. There's cute decor from the ceiling as well. This is the type of spot where you'd bring your family with younger kids for something sweet, while the adults sit and talk. When we visited, my family and one other family pretty much took up all the tables lol. Service: There was only one worker behind the counter serving and making the drinks and desserts. She doesn't acknowledge anyone. It wasn't too busy, but throughput took a while since she was by herself. There's two kiosk to order from. You don't really interact with the worker until she brings out your order. Desserts & drinks: We ordered a mixture of almost everything. We noticed there were a few menu items that were out of stock. I ordered a mango pamelo sago, my sister ordered a brown sugar boba milk tea, my cousin ordered an americano, and my other cousin ordered a strawberry & cream eggette. I thought the mango pamelo sago was okay; the mango flavor was lacking except for the actual mangos. There was plenty of sago, but I thought this dessert was underwhelming. My sister thought the boba was okay bc it had an interesting texture, and the drink itself was lightly sweet than what she's used to. My cousin thought the coffee was okay. The only thing we all enjoyed was the eggette. It's a bubble waffle with ice cream and fresh fruits, which is pretty difficult to mess up. Pricing: Prices are pretty high for the portions offered. Overall, the desserts were underwhelming and some didn't meet our expectations. The eggettes are most likely the only thing we'll come back for.

I've been eyeing this spot for awhile, but never got around trying it. I finally was able to try…read moretheir desserts after having dinner in this plaza. We came in around 730pm on a Monday night and there were a few tables taken. I thought that was a good sign since it was kind of cold tonight...if people are choosing to come here on a cold night, there must be a reason why! When we walked in, there was a gal at the counter, but was on her phone. Barely looked up to greet us, which wasn't a big deal since there are kiosks for you to order, but what I thought was kind of strange was she didn't bother trying to help us when we kept saying out loud "there are no photos of this or that" literally just on her phone and not trying to explain any of their menu items. The kiosk set up is on top of the counter, so we were asking these questions right in front of her. Lol. Made me wonder what the point of her sitting there was. Might as well have been in the back to watch whatever she was watching on her phone to make things less awkward. Luckily both our desserts were fine, but I did not appreciate having someone sitting at the counter only to let you know they don't care if 1) it's your first time there, 2) are confused by some of their dessert names, and 3) photos are missing for many of their items listed in the kiosk. The tables were dirty, my bag got wet from whatever was left from the previous party. Not cool. If the service (or lack there of) was better and tables clean I may have rated this place higher. Though the desserts were decent, not I'll be back. ** Warning Auto Tip: I noticed when I got home that they added a 12% tip to my total. There was no option to get a printed receipt nor was there a step to review ANY tip. I've never experienced such a thing, especially when this is a self service/pick up cafe **

This place is really good! They have yummy che and drinks. I think the che could be sweeter and…read morecreamier but the toppings are super yummy. All the drinks we got were yummy too, but I got the toffee Creme Brulee drink and it could've been better with coffee or as milk tea. The base of it is just milk with boba and very light crème brûlée topping. The honeycomb is excellent though! The pandan waffle was also good but is more fluffy and American waffle-like and lacking sweetness and pandan flavor. I enjoyed it but might not order it again.

I usually order the Sweet Avocado, but on my visit today, the drink came with three large slices of…read moreavocado. I wondered why they hadn't cut the avocado into smaller pieces, but when I took a bite, I realized it was because the avocado was still hard. I brought the drink back and asked if they could remake it since the avocado wasn't ripe. The cashier was very apologetic and immediately agreed. I mentioned that I'd rather order a different drink if they didn't have ripe avocados. She checked with the kitchen and came back right away to let me know they didn't have any ripe avocados. I ended up ordering the Jelly Coco instead. It was my first time trying it, and I actually enjoyed it. The coconut water was refreshing, but it didn't have many toppings. Aside from the coconut meat and basil seeds, there were only a few pieces of lychee. I do wish they would temporarily remove the Sweet Avocado from the menu if they know they don't have ripe avocados. It would save customers from ordering something that can't be made properly.

I really had thought that I had tried some of the best ice creams shops out there until I…read moreexperienced Sorry Not Sorry Creamery!!! It's an experience to say the least. It lives up to all the hype and then some. I met a friend for lunch in Cerritos and figured while I'm out here we can pop in and give them a try. I live an hour away and I would make the drive out here again just to buy some more ice cream to take home in a cooler. That's how impressed I was by the overall quality, creaminess and taste of the ice creams. Glenna was helping us out behind the counter and she was so sweet and so nice! The other man that was working there was also so friendly and nice. We were sampling several flavors and I decided to buy the flight (4 kids scoops) size because every flavor I tried I loved! I brought an ice cooler with me so that I could eat a little of it and then bring the rest home. I chose the Seasonal Guava Cheese Crisp (my FAVORITE). Think of Porto's guava cheese pastries as ice cream but better!!! Double stuffed cookies and Cream was a close 2nd. So yummy! Triple Chocolate Chunk Brownie - if you're a chocolate lover like I am you will not be disappointed in this decadent choice. 4th scoop was the Seasonal Pineapple Upside Down Cake which was fruity and light. I also sampled the Salted Pistachio Brittle, Ube Honeycomb and Bumbleberry Cheesecake flavors and they were all delicious! They have a good selection of Vegan flavors as well. Overall, the hype is real! Go! The customer service is excellent. The store is very clean, bright and airy. They have some tables that you can stand at and eat your ice cream and a couple benches inside. Plenty of parking.

Sorry Not Sorry may honestly be my favorite ice cream shop yet! I've seen so much hype surrounding…read morethis place, and now I completely understand why. Their ice cream truly lives up to the hype; it's incredibly creamy and perfectly sweet! The aesthetic of the shop is super cute, with neon LED lights decorating the walls. I should mention that there isn't any indoor seating, so it's strictly a grab-and-go spot. I've been to this location numerous times, and I've even brought my family along to give it a try. My go-to flavors are the Double Stuffed Cookies & Cream and S'mores. Out of the two, I'd say the S'mores is definitely my favorite. It tastes just like an actual s'more, with generous pieces of Hershey's chocolate, gooey marshmallows, and sweet, crumbly graham cracker pieces. Yum! Overall, I definitely recommend Sorry Not Sorry to anyone looking to satisfy their sweet tooth!

After I realized that not all smoking tigers are the same- some have the fresh baked stuff and the others get it shipped in, it's worth the extra travel to go to the bread factories. I don't think it's fair to review the food since most of it rotates so much, BUT... that buttery flakey crust of the chicken pot pie literally made me want to eat 1000 of them in one sitting. Everything is good. Literally EVERYThING is delicious. Just make sure you ask them to warm it up. Cause who wants a room temp bread when you don't have to live like that. In the time it took to warm up my pot pie, I was able to ask my usual incessant questions which were all answered with super chill and friendly conversation.
