Everything is always fresh and beautifully displayed, the space is clean and welcoming, and the staff is attentive and efficient even when it's busy. Whether you're grabbing something quick to go or sitting down to enjoy a coffee and pastry, there's plenty of room and it never feels chaotic. It's one of those places that's stood the test of time for a reason -- consistent, authentic, and always delicious.

I always have a sweet tooth and wanted to give this spot a try. When I arrived I had to double park…read morebecause parking is terrible in this area. I walked in and was greeted. The spot was super cute. I asked the lady a couple of questions about the desserts and the one I went with is the lime pie. It came to a little under $7 for a small slice. It's a tad pricey at this location. I paid and left. When I got home I tasted and it was a tasty pie. It was the right amount of flavor throughout. I had a pretty decent experience.

Nope.....! We saw…read moretheir Luxury Truffle Collection offered on QVC. The truffles presented there were presented as large enough to be cut in half and shared for 2. The hosts Ooooed and Awwwed over the size of them & the unique flavors and when we would normally never pay 5$ a piece for chocolate, we thought they looked like a deal given the "size" and unique flavors. [12 pieces for $59.95] What was delivered was a joke! The total weight of the chocolates was approximately 8 ounces. That made them $120 a pound. They were simply packed loosely in a shipping box, so the box of truffles was shook and shaken all the way to our house and they looked terrible by the time they arrived. So an F for shipping. And the size, well as you can see they were nowhere as large as what was presented, as some were not even large enough to fill the space allowed in their packaging! For the most part they were smaller than a Lindor truffle. So another F for actual portion size in relation to what as presented on QVC. Finally the taste.... There was none. We tries 3, and they had NO real taste. I described them as eating Play Dough...just a weird putty texture. And the killer is 2 of the 3 we tried were hollow and you could see the seam where they constructed them. Yes...a BIG FAT "F" for taste!! We tried to return them and QVC didnt even want them back... So we put them where they belonged...in the TRASH. I welcome the owners of this establishment to prove to us what they offer is actually worth $120 a pound....

This place popped up on my map and as a banana pudding enthusiast I absolutely had to come check it out. It was a little annoying that they had already run out of party trays and so I had to settle for getting 2 pints instead. The girls at the register were super friendly though, and tried everything to make the packaging look super cute and presentable. The ube banana pudding is so unique and to die for. The regular banana pudding is also really really good. Overall, I also really like the aesthetic of this place, you could totally sit here and enjoy your dessert. My friends absolutely devoured both the puddings I got, and they were a total hit. If you are in JC, this has to be your go to dessert spot.

Everything I've tried has been delicious and service has been excellent. If you're an ube fan or just looking for a unique, cozy dessert and coffee spot, definitely check out Kubo!

Always made fresh, there are tons of ice cream/Gelato flavors including a pastel de nata (Portuguese custard cup) flavor that is my favorite! Custom order birthday and wedding cakes can be found at the far end of the store, as well as pint size tubs of their famous ice cream. The workers are always eager to help, so don't be shy and be sure to sample several flavors before settling on one. This time around I went with a plain vanilla ice cream topped with nuts. Absolutely amazing. In the summertime they have an outdoor seating area that fills up quickly.

I gave away the bananas. The guac was very flavorful - a tad too sour but still very good. The side of broccoli was done perfectly with a bit of flavor and some crunch. The spinach however was maybe the best I've had. Not sure how they made it so good but wasn't simply with garlic. I had a piece of the branzino and thought it was also tasty with a nice fried crunch. The iced tea was perfectly caffeinated but maybe a tad small. It is supposedly unlimited but I didn't take advantage of that. The restrooms were also clean. I just wish they had some lounge chairs in there. Service was fast and diner style. Get what you need and get out of there. No one was rude, but no one was overly friendly. They all did their job and a 20% tip was automatically included. No concerns but thought it would be worth highlighting.

My husband and I had a little late night coffee date after a day of journaling and reflecting and it was nice to sit and chat here. It feels very homey, but I will say that the inside can get very loud with a bunch of people crowded in the small space. The decor is a little funny, seems kinda random - but I love the genuine vibe! The service was really good, I like the big chalk board menu. It's aesthetically pleasing to look at. I tried a matcha vanilla cupcake and it was soooo good. Normally matcha stuff tastes like grass to me but it was really well balanced with the vanilla. Neither was overpowering and it made it a very refreshing dessert. I can see intrinsic becoming a regular spot in my life!

First time I got the Passion Fruit Mousse and the Portuguese egg tarts, origin I was iffy about the tart but after another bite I was in awe. It was perfection. It was so good I had to go back the next day and try something new. This time I had the pistachio croissant which is super moist and a good balance of sweetness, not overbearing what so ever. If it wasn't so many people I would have sat down and ate because it was a cute intimate space. They also had another open side full of tables, which you could sit in if the front is too packed for you. I was just ready to go. But I'm also ready to return.
