    Coconut & flan
    Jennifer N.

    FOOD - Coconut & Flan: pandan leaf jelly, coconut jelly, crystal pearls, tofu, and flan in coconut milk. This was probably one of the best che I've had. It was so good and refreshing. It had the perfect amount of sweetness. 5/5 SERVICE: Fast and friendly. When you order to-go, you get a bag of ice to keep your che cool. 5/5 FINAL THOUGHTS: I'm adding this to one of my must-have places when in SoCal.

    Coconut Special $8 and 3-color Dessert $6.50

    Chè Vi is one of my favorite places for Vietnamese dessert now. My friend likes their Coconut Special and I wanted to order it as well. However, the cashier told me I could not substitute it with a non-dairy milk alternative. I've had the chè ba màu, or 3-color dessert. It was pretty good. I believe it had mung bean, kidney beans, bánh lot (chewy pandan jelly), and a few other things mixed in. I prefer the one at Chè Hien Khanh. I've also had the Tofu Special $8 which is my favorite. It comes with the ube balls and flan, although I think I like the ube better. It was so good I came back the next day! There is plenty of seating inside and it gets packed at night. Great place to hang out with friends. Looking forward to coming back soon. Happy eating! Yelp Review #22- 2026

    I ordered the Coconut Special and Tofu Special, each priced at $8. While both desserts were generously topped and even came with a cup of ice on the side, I felt the price was a bit high for what I received. I usually love traditional Vietnamese chè, and while the varieties here felt a bit twisted or modernized, it didn't fully satisfy my craving, but it was still an okay experience. The vibes are fun and casual, the staff are friendly, and overall it's worth a visit if you're open to trying something new.

    Easy eats Vietnamese desserts in a strip mall. Got some after dinner dessert - ordered the coconut special. Came with a bunch of coconut and ube - along with flan, pandan jelly, tapioca water chestnuts, and such. Was the right amount of sweetness - and actually felt there was a bit too much of some of the ingredients in the dessert, there was no way I was finishing the contents. Pretty good stuff - will probably be back at some point (though probably will probably ask for a little less of the chestnut and pandan next time around).

    Another promotion today 4/30/26 only at Che Vi. Buy one get one free Coconut or Pandan grass jelly. There was a line around 11:00 am today however the line moved fast. They have an assembly lines to fill the orders pretty efficient! Good job! Parking is tight.

    I've been trying all the different che places in OC lately and Che Vi was the last spot I hadn't had. I finally had the opportunity yesterday. Their menu is a little different than the other Vietnamese Che places. Their popular ones include the coconut special and the tofu one. I like that they had a variety of tofu ones that other places do not have. But they had the regular ones that other places do have like the Che Thai. They did not have a dac biet one. I went with their coconut special which included a large full cup with a side cup of ice. In it included jelly, young fresh coconut shavings, taro cubes, and a flan. Everything in it was really good. I especially liked the flan and the coconut shavings. I liked that it wasn't too sweet and was perfect. A cup was definitely shareable. My che came out pretty quick although there was a large party before me. The inside of this place has tables and chairs for you to enjoy. Parking is easy since they are located in a stripe mall. I want to come back and try their other flavors.

    I had a random hankering for dessert but didn't want anything heavy. Found this highly rated spot that was still open, so we gave it a shot. I walked in staring at the menu with zero clue what anything was since most of it's in Vietnamese. Then I noticed these little containers, pulled out Google Translate, and saw they were basically jello. Sold. I love small, petite desserts that don't send me into a sugar coma. I grabbed the coffee and taro flavors, and at $1.50 each...absolute perfection. Light, not too sweet and weirdly addictive. I also ordered the #5 grass jelly and pandan in coconut milkand asked them to go easy on the sugar. Heaven in a cup. Seriously. I also really appreciated that they give you the ice on the side, so you're not paying for a cup full of ice instead of dessert. Such a small but thoughtful touch. This is the kind of place I'd come back to anytime I want to satisfy a sweet tooth without feeling gross after. Guiltless dessert dreams fulfilled.

    Che Thai & Coconut
    Kristen V.

    Che Vi was a good place to visit for che. For a limited time they offer Che Thai, so that's what I ordered. The service was really quick and friendly. I liked that there's indoor and outdoor seating options to enjoy the weather. We opted to enjoy our che inside the store. Honestly, I wasn't crazy about my che thai. It was good, but not my favorite. That's on me though. It includes durian and I had no idea that I wasn't durian's biggest fan. I liked the coconut one a lot better. If you like durian then try their che thai while it's available! Otherwise, I'd definitely go for their coconut che.

    This is one of our favorite Vietnamese dessert shops whenever we're in the area. We ordered the A4. Coconut Special and two A8. Tofu Special, and asked for the ice on the side so it's not diluted when we bring it home. We also ordered 3 ginger tofu which is like a soft and sweet non-eggy flan with some sweet ginger syrup. Everything was delicious. Clean inside. Indoor seating available. Free parking in front parking lot. Great service. Highly recommend this place!

    Milk Cheese Jelly
    Lucy L.

    My mom loves this place so when we are in town, we try to stop by and get a treat. I wanted to go their bestseller: A:11 Avocado, but unfortunately they didn't have avocado pudding available to make it. I ended up getting Milk Cheese Jelly. I thought it was tasty and refreshing. Subtly sweet too which was nice. My husband just got a tofu flan. It was a tad bit too ginger-y for my taste but still good.

    Hena L.

    I love love love this place! It's in a plaza with a ton of other good food spots so we randomly popped in after dinner one day. The desserts are all so refreshing. I love getting the tofu and flan che. The milk itself is so delicious, I could drink that by itself.

    Hi, Is the coconut whole milk made with dairy/cow milk?

    From what I could remember, it was only coconut milk. I didn't taste anything cow milk in it. I think there was also the taste of soy milk or something?

    Is your gelatin vegetarian?

    Hi most of our jellies are vegetarian, except the ones in our milk cheese jelly.

    Do you use natural or artificial food coloring?

    We use a combination of natural and artificial coloring

    Hands down, the service at this location was outstanding!…read more 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.

    I'm editing this review because I can't reply to their message and update to a 1 based on their…read moreresponse: Apparently, they have a copy and pasted response to the fact that they know that they always run out right which is an admission that they deliberately make less JUST to frustrate their customers' on purpose, in my humble opinion. Take that as you will. If you wanna give your money to a business who deliberately goes out of their way to make sure there is less product than you can realistically purchase. Do what they say and buy in advance online only...aaaaand only in advance never go in person if you care enough to eat this dessert. It's not THAT good to deal with that policy, for me. Respectfully. Does it even matter if you have a great product if your customers can never get ahold of it? Food? Great. Ambience is clean. Stock? Empty. Descriptions at the bottom. Complaint below. I'm never coming back. Waste of my life. I've come 6 times and they are always out of their deserts I literally have only been able to try the palm sugar once and the cassava MAYBE 3x in the last 10x (one year) of coming. I left empty handed the last 5x. Drive 30 min just to have my life wasted. I'm never coming back again. Honestly, at this point I think they do it on purpose. Probably just to create some sort of artificial demand. Either that or the level of incompetency with regard to their operations management is laughable. It's a question as old as time. Hanlon's razor. Well today I choose to apply malice. Good luck to the rest of you! If you get lucky enough or desperate enough to camp outside just to beg like a pauper for some small cake ( that honestly is good but not worth this amount of effort).... The palm sugar is like a brown sugar cake with a mochi texture. Chewy and lightly sweet. The cassava is a dense lightly sweet cake that reminds me of a coconut pound cake muffins better tasting and lighter cousin. The pandan layer is pleasantly chewy with mungbean almost jello mochi.

People do change lol The customer service here used to be great. Owner was patient and nice. Things have changed over years. Recent visit including today, the owner eyes weren't as kind as before. He was rushing my mom and felt irritated that she was asking questions. There were rau cau that came in singles and rau cau that came in 6. I never knew that the ones that came in six were just display and not for sale. My mom wanted to save the dude from grabbing single ones, so she asked for the tray of 6 Pandan coconut. 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.
