    The store is still running strong and the flavors are always delightfully welcoming to the tummy. The place got a cute vibe and I have been taking all my friends and gf here to try with positive results.

    First time here with friends and went on a weekday evening. There's indoor seating as well. I love how they sell blind boxes, their whole wall of their collections available to buy. There's also a lot up backdrops for pics. The service was great, kind and friendly. You can order at 2-3 kiosk or on the counter with an employee. I've only ordered the mango pomelo sago pudding; not too sweet and it comes in a small cup which was plentiful for a person. I'd come back here if I'm in the area to try their drinks since my friends enjoyed theirs.

    Strawberry Milk Mochi, Mango Pomelo Sago Milk Pudding, Mango Tango

    Was recommended to this cute place by a friend! Right outside of John Wayne, there's this tucked away plaza with a bunch of food places, and Chewie and Mallow was right inside. The cafe itself has you order at the front, and there is a small, but cutely decorated seating area that leads down a hallway. (No bathrooms by the way, so you will have to go elsewhere if looking for that). I saw that they had a promo for a free milk pudding, and I tried to register for an account, and my friends and I ordered enough to make the cutoff, but then the guy at the register said that the account had to be another day old before I could use that promo sadly. We ordered the strawberry milk mochi, the mango tango, and the mango pomelo sago milk. All of these were delicious, and I really liked the smoothness of the mochi in my strawberry drink compared to 3cat's mochi. Drinks came out decently fast, and overall good service. Would come again next time I drop by the airport!

    My favorite place for hongkong style milk pudding. Locates in a big plaza with plenty of parking. Both of the Mango & Mango Pomelo Sago (杨枝甘露) Milk Pudding is very tasty, it balances between the sweetness, creaminess of the pudding and the tartness of the topping. Will return to try their bowl.

    Came here on a mission for the Coconut Revolution... and yeah, it revolted by not being on the menu . Audible called and landed on the seasonal watermelon coconut--and honestly, no regrets. This place hits that perfect "treat yourself" lane. The drink was super refreshing, nicely sweet, and loaded with that fun chewy texture that makes you feel like you're eating and drinking at the same time. You can customize sugar and ingredients, but I rolled with the standard and it was dialed in just right. On a hot Irvine day, this was exactly what I needed...a little pep in the step, a little sugar happiness, and a solid excuse to slow down for 10 minutes. Located in one of those busy Michelson shopping centers where parking feels like a competitive sport, but worth the effort once you've got a cup in hand. Bottom line for me: fun spot, great flavors, and a solid mood booster when life (or traffic) starts testing you.

    So delicious!! This is the cutest dessert shop. Lots of cute trinkets and stuffies on the walls. They have a good selection of drinks, dessert bowls and Hong Kong pudding. I love their white peach Hong Kong pudding. The pudding is not too sweet - just perfect. The toppings for the white peach one is so fun. It's like little pieces of peach in a ball. It's super refreshing. The desserts come out pretty fast after you order on the kiosk. Be sure to sign up for their rewards program! As a welcome gift, there are many discounts including free pudding when you spend $15.

    Great drinks and cute decor! Tried the taro and strawberry cloud mochi drinks which were very good. Also had the fresh mango milk pudding and it was very good and very refreshing, especially for a warm night. The service was quick and the worker was friendly and helpful. Would definitely come back here again! They definitely deserve more business.

    Just happened to be at the center and stumbled across this cute fun place! The sign out front caught my eye, so I decided to try one. Then, decided to get two. (Hahah!) When the guy saw I spent over $15, he told me I get an ADDITIONAL one for free!! OMGGG... So here I am with 3 perishable items all to myself. Thinking back, I should have given one to a passerby, but I just thought of that right now. I would have really made someone's day! They were all delicious. I was actually able to just take a taste of all three and they made it home to save for later. My favorite being the Korean milk pudding. The toppings that came on the White Peach flavor was similar to popping boba, but even more fun and crunchy! The pudding reminded me of Melo Melo. Very refreshing and not too sweet. - Mochi Matcha Bowl - White Peach Milk Pudding - Mango Coconut Mochi Drink I was able to get the Mango Coconut Mochi Drink with ZERO SUGAR!! Guilt free and still amazing! Win-Win-Win!

    Need a cute Asian dessert date? Chewie & Mellow is probably one of the cutest and most Instagrammable dessert spots in OC. We're huge mango lovers, so we had to go all-in on mango everything: Mango Tango, Sweet Tofu with Mango, Tropical Mango Bowl, and Mango Milk Pudding The Cantonese-style milk pudding was hands down the best ! smooth, creamy, and not overly sweet IG: socalhkfoodies

    Came across this place after stopping by the food court and so glad I got some milk pudding cups to go! Brought it home and put it in the fridge for the next day and it was still so good and fresh!! I got mango and taro, super tasty. Not too sweet, fresh and creamy milk pudding so addicting! Service is excellent, order on iPad and it came out so fast! Ambiance is very cute cafe , lots of decor and trinkets. Definitely coming back!!

    Chewie & Mellow is a cute Chinese dessert shop located in a nice plaza in Irvine. They serve drinks, dessert bowls, and Hong Kong milk pudding. We ordered a Pandan Bliss Bowl and a Strawberry Milk Mochi. Absolutely loved both, not too sweet at all, the flavors were on point, and the dessert comes packaged super conveniently for takeout. There's some tables off to the side of the shop, good for sitting for a short duration but not the best for large groups. Also adored the cute displays they had going on here. Highly recommend giving this place a shot!

    Shoutout to Gary and the Duck Donuts team!…read more I usually order Duck Donuts for team meetings on EZ Cater, maybe 3 dozen max at a time with 1-2 coffee buckets. I recently had a very large order and did 45 dozen (540 pieces!!) directly with the store. Gary was very quick to respond and helpful with the flavor reccs/modifications. We did: glazed, french toast, chocolate with chocolate sprinkles, chocolate covered strawberry, strawberry w rainbow sprinkles, and vanilla chocolate swirl. Day of, Gary was on time with the delivery (even with my last minute time change due to another delivery). Everything was accurate, fresh and carefully packaged. Duck donuts was such a hit! My favorite flavor is the French toast. Highly recommend!!

When I searched on Google for ice cream near me- chocolate shoppe ice cream popped up then upon looking further I realized it was sold within duck donuts. Still ventured to try it Two guys working, one said he was new, and didn't know where all the flavors were / allowed us to try some b4 we ordered but was a pain bc the flavors were spread between two freezers in front of store and whatever was in the back. Placed an order for 3 double scoop cups (all they had) and took a really long time to make them having to figure out where the flavors were between the front and back of store. Then. They didn't have lids to cover them or a bag to put them in - so we literally covered each cup with another cup and put in a box I had from Costco in my trunk to get them home without dripping everywhere in my car. And I say dripping everywhere bc by the time he finished the last cup/. The others were melted from taking so long. They should probably just stick to donuts if they can't fully support the ice cream products. If I knew now/ I wouldn't have chosen to try there for ice cream. Very unfortunate, bc we probably would have loved the ice cream - but the experience clearly trumped the product.

My favorites were definitely the lavender, pistachio, and the Italian chocolate. The lavender was the most unique and would absolutely be the one I bring to wow new people. The pistachio was rich, creamy, and really well balanced. The Italian chocolate was deeply chocolatey, exactly how I like it, and I finished the whole thing in one sitting. The rose flavor is definitely for people who truly enjoy rose desserts. The strawberry was the only one that did not fully match my expectations from a high end bakery. The tiramisu was decent, more cream-forward and lighter on the coffee flavor than I expected. Overall, these pastries are definitely on the sweeter, cream-based side, and honestly, that is exactly what made them so good to me. I do not want desserts to be less sweet, I want them to feel indulgent and perfect, and these did. I will absolutely keep going back, especially for the lavender, chocolate, and pistachio pastries.

    I originally just had a craving and wanted to go buy a cake--specifically heading there for the…read more*Greenteatella*--but the owner told me it's only available on weekends . Instead, he recommended the *Creamtella* and their matcha beverages. I was absolutely blown away; who would have thought that *Cheesetella's matcha drinks would be this delicious?! There is a wide selection of matcha drinks available in-store. The owner mentioned that they use high-quality matcha (I'm guessing he meant ceremonial grade?), and he even showed me their preparation process--specifically how they whisk it to achieve that smooth, "mirror-like" finish! Matcha Einspanner Personally, I prefer this kind of simple flavor profile: matcha blended with a rich, thick cream topping. It offers a satisfyingly subtle tea aroma with every sip--a true delight for any matcha enthusiast! Strawberry Matcha w/ Pistachio Cream If you love strawberries and enjoy sweet flavors, you'll likely enjoy this one. However, since I'm not personally a huge fan of the combination of strawberry jam and matcha, I felt just "okay" about it--though it is a tasty drink! The pistachio cream topping definitely earns some extra points here! Creamtella The combination of cream and cake gave me a whole new appreciation for their pastries. The cream perfectly counteracts the cake's tendency to be a bit dry; together, they make for a truly perfect pairing! You absolutely *must* give this a try!! It gets a huge thumbs-up from me! Chocotella This one is fairly standard and straightforward. The small chocolate pieces add a nice textural element, and the flavor is a definite plus--especially if you're a chocolate lover! However, the cake itself leans a bit toward the drier side--much like their original plain flavor (which is why I still highly recommend going for the versions with added cream!) To be honest, the first time I tried their cakes, I wasn't particularly impressed. Later, I saw posts suggesting that heating them up before eating makes them taste much better. But this time, the *Creamtella* truly blew me away, completely changing my opinion of the brand. And the matcha drinks are just the icing on the cake! The owner is genuinely a wonderful person--so friendly and enthusiastic! Since it's just him and one other employee working in the shop, making the drinks takes a little time, so please be patient! ^_^

Where it gets disappointing is when I recall for my last 2 visits to Southern California based locations have left me wondering if I'm ever terribly unlucky with their product or their shaved ice is always produced like ice pebbles, and not like the smooth, creamy shaved snow their competition offers. I most recently visited their Irvine location and on this busy evening, I ordered their Strawberry Bingsoo. After about a 15+ min wait, my buzzer rang, and I picked it up at the counter. Fortunately a table had just opened up. Otherwise there are tables outside their shop as well. Once again their Bingsoo was more crunchy than smooth and velvety in my mouth. There were strawberry slices on top with a few mochi pieces, and a little condensed milk drizzle on top. The middle and bottom layers were just crunchy ice. This was also gravely disappointing. Parking on weekend evenings look to be challenging as it was for me.

Only recently was I able to visit and try their croffles and other sweets. Did NOT know that this was inside the H Mart food court in Diamond Jamboree. Parking is horrendous and the driving there is horrendous as well. Probably the easiest and least horrifying option just to automatically default to is to just park in the overflow lot right next to the plaza. There's no indicator for the parking garage so on a particularly busy day, you can head all the way to the top, find nothing and navigate through the hell crowds trying to leave. Ambiance is a very casual, counter order business in the food court. There's seating there, but we ate really close by. Definitely something you have to eat immediately or the texture will not be optimal or it might get soggy. We got the tiramisu croffle and they toasted it and put it together for us there. The lady working there packed it up nicely in a to go box and we got some cookies (regular ones and almond crisp ones). It's a bit sweet, but they're dessert pastries so that makes sense. Goes great with a brewed cup of tea. Croffle had a nice semi-chewy texture and the tiramisu flavor added a bit of a coffee taste to it. Good balance of the cream and croffle. The cookie wasn't too bad either. Overall not a bad to go dessert spot.
