    coconut sundae w mango, pandan, and thai tea ice cream and fresh mango (left)
    Ashlee L.

    Absolutely (coco) BOMB. This post tanning on the beach 10/10. We got the coconut sundae with mango, thai tea, pandan ice cream and fresh mango. It came in such an adorable coconut shell. The mango ice cream was my favorite flavor. And holy the fresh mango was sooo ripe and sweet. BLESS MANGO SEASON!!! The pandan and thai tea flavors were also good and all this for just $10 is actually A STEAL!! It was a good portion for 2 people :) It also came with coconut meat -- I wasn't a fan of it, but my friend was! Please come try!! We came on a Sunday afternoon, and it was packed! There is limited seating outside, but unfortunately we weren't able to get a spot.

    After driving to Linda Vista to try out Coco Bomb, it makes sense to me that they opened up their second home in Convoy. I recently went to Coco Bomb with an interest in their ice cream. I love coconut flavor as it is already creamy and silky in texture. Many were enjoying their coconut ice cream bowl, so I wanted to do the same. You get three scoops of your choice ice cream. The mango sold out that day so we weren't able to try it! Our picks were the coconut, pandan, and Thai tea. My favorite had to be coconut, of course! This is a great place for your favorite Thai desserts as they even sell mango sticky rice, jelly desserts, and even drinks like coffee, pudding, and Ruam Mit. The service is friendly and seating is a bit limited, so I'm excited for their upcoming location to be open.

    Wow.... what an amazing dessert spot to beat the heat! Such inviting, cute decor tucked away on the side of the street. Came in for their mango sticky rice and ended up with that and a scoop of their pandan ice cream to try. Both were SOOO amazing and not too sweet! The sticky rice was hot & fresh, while the mango was cold and perfectly sweet and ripe. It's one of my favorite desserts when done right! Such a nice sweet treat. The pandan ice cream was delicious as well and not too sweet. I want to come back to try their famous coconut sundae! The rest of the menu looks amazing as well

    SOOO excited to find a place focused on Thai desserts!!! They have a large variety from drinks to modern and traditional desserts that are largely coconut themed. There's plenty of indoor and outdoor seating which is nice. Next time I'd like to try the coconut ice cream with peanuts and bread which is an old style street dessert! Sundae in young coconut - 5/5, definitely worth the splurge! I love that after finishing the sundae, you can eat the coconut meat inside. We got mango, coconut, and Thai tea ice cream scoops. The coconut is soo refreshing and the mango is very fruit forward without any artificial flavor or being a sorbet! Thai tea is on the sweeter side, but very delicious. Mango sticky rice - 5/5, the sticky rice is cooked well and not wet! The coconut sauce is not too sweet and the mangos were super sweet!!! They did justice to an iconic staple!

    Ice cream to go! Small (4oz) $4, medium (12oz) $9, large (16oz) $12

    Love this place for their mango sticky rice, 10/10. What makes it is their coconut ice cream. It is the best coconut ice cream I've had! I first came across this shop at two different farmer's markets, the one in Little Italy and PB. I decided to go to the shop because I was craving it and wanted my fix. The quality at the shop and the booths at the farmers markets are all consistent and everything is delicious. I was excited to try their other ice cream flavors too. They let me sample two in the store and I tried their Thai tea and mango. To be honest, I wasn't a huge fan of them. The mango one was too creamy and the Thai tea one didn't taste like Thai tea. Their coconut they've mastered to perfection though. Stick with the OG mango sticky rice combo, add ice cream, and you'll love it. The shop is small but there's plenty of parking in the back. We got our food pretty quickly too!

    Parking is very tight and limited here. You can park on the right side where it says "30 mins," other than that I've seen other people park at the convenience store next door. Inside is very small, about 5 tables. Outside about a few. So, we placed an order for Thai iced tea, mango with sticky rice, and coconut sundae. We were lucky enough to find a table inside. The rush slowed down after 6:30 pm on a Saturday. Service was very friendly and they worked efficiently. Prices were fair. -Thai iced tea 5 - probably one of the best ones I've ever had. I recommend getting one with your dessert. -mango with sticky rice 5 - I love how bountiful the mangos are, usually I don't get this much. Mangos were sweet and the rice was good. -coconut sundae 5 - this was really good. We picked ube, coconut, and pandan. My favorite one was pandan. Ube has a more subtle flavor whereas the coconut and pandan have a stronger taste.

    Unfortunately, not worth the visit or trek to go out of the way to get this. This is just constructive criticism, but the ice cream here was not that great. It was very icy and not creamy. I really wanted to like it, but the ice cream completely missed the mark for me. The Thai tea did not taste like Thai tea at all, it had a more deep smokey flavor?? The pandan was also just very light and not as good as others I've tried before. The coconut ice cream was probably the best of them all. However, as mentioned, all of them were very icy and not creamy or smooth. The service was friendly.

    Coconut Sundae with Pandan, Thai Tea, Mango
    William T.

    Found out about Coco Bomb from the Hillcrest farmers market and wanted to visit their storefront to try other ice cream flavors! Service is quick and friendly. Sizable amount of seating available to enjoy your desserts. Make sure to account for the lack of parking provided. I got the coconut sundae with Thai tea, pandan, and mango icecream -- such a generous portion of fresh coconut, fruit, and coconut icecream. Highly recommend pandan flavor but all flavors are done really well. The sundae also comes with mango and coconut slices.

    Mango and coconut? Say less. This was such a refreshing dessert especially on a hot day. I loved the incorporation of all the parts of a coconut in one dessert. It was so yummy and pleasing to the eye. Service was quick and accommodating when ordering (since it was my first time). It's a pretty small area but still with seats in almost every corner as well as outdoors! Definitely a try if you pass by!

    Mango with Sticky Rice Lot Chong
    Catherine Z.

    Absolutely love this adorable coconut themed dessert store. The mango sticky rice was pretty big in size and tasted perfect paired with the rice and condensed milk. The lot chong drink was also delicious and I loved the various toppings in the drink! Service was also phenomenal and the cashier helped answer our questions when deciding what to order

    Ube, coconut, and Thai pandan ice cream
    Sally L.

    This place is a small dessert place. They have several tables inside and several seats on the outside. There is also limited parking on the side street. We ordered the Coconut Sundae, Mango Sticky Rice, and Thai Tea. My boyfriend wanted to try their pudding, but they were sold out. They were also out of mango-flavor ice cream. You can pick three different flavors of ice cream for the sundae. I pick Ube, Coconut, and Thai Pandan ice cream. The coconut sundae was really good. The flavors were tasty and not too sweet. For the topping, I pick mango with condensed milk. The mango was fresh and sweet. Portion for the mango sticky rice was pretty big. It didn't take too long for the order to be ready. The staff was nice. This place is worth trying if you like mango and coconut desserts. It is too bad we don't live in San Diego. I would definitely go back to try other items on their menu.

    Mango with Sticky Rice & Thai tea!
    Bridget B.

    Coco Bomb is the best Mango Sticky rice you will have in SD! I was lucky enough to stumble upon their tent at the OB Farmer's Market and was blown away with how delicious this was. I've had many mango sticky rice desserts in SD but this one was phenomenal. The rice was perfectly cooked and flavored, and the mango was out of this world. The thai tea had a great balance of rich and creamy to sweet, and was such a good addition to the dessert. I will definitely be back!

If you aren't a regular, they just quickly come by and say "anything else?" the two times they came by. Im a huge water drinker so the carafe they brought only refilled our cups once. Never got another one until we were done and they came by asking about dessert. They weren't busy by any stretch on a Tuesday evening but apparently the frequent customers either tip really well or they prefer familiar faces. I assume the latter. So, I mean the food itself was great but service was not good. I mean we went when it was slow too and the host was talking it up with a frequent customer also asking about the changes recently to parking in their area nearby.... So, it puts this review as a 3/5.
