We sat outside which has a sign on the table that says "bus your own tables" there was no notification that our drinks were ready until I noticed drinks sitting on the counter through the window and it turned out to be ours.

Again, the place is cute so maybe I'd be back and to try food but the service was meh.

It was a particularly hot day when I came here, but I can say with confidence I chose wisely. I had a very tasty taro ice cream that had such a luxurious texture I amost wondered if eating it is what royalty feels like. My partner also had mint chocolate chip which I'm not particularly fond of, but that's the joy of ice cream, different flavors for all involved! The staff here were pretty nice and given how hot it was knew people just needed some relief. Very excited to come back and try something else! Cheers!

I try to eat healthy, so having ice cream isn't something I do often, but after my first sample I knew I wouldn't be able to hold back. I ordered a double scoop and got one of the Orange Creamsicle and one of Nut Your Average Scoop. Both were delicious, but the Orange Creamsicle was my favorite. It was a refreshing take on the classic flavor. I especially loved the bits of orange zest sprinkled throughout. It only took one visit for me to become a fan of Moo Moo Mia and I can't wait to visit again!

Came here for the souffle pancakes and they didn't disappoint!…read more My party of 3 stopped by Saturday afternoon 2:30 pm and it wasn't crowded. They have both indoor and outdoor seating. We chose outdoor since it was such a nice day out. They have all of their desserts on display in the case, so you can peruse the options and see what looks good. So many of the desserts looked good, like the matcha yuzu chiffon crepe cake or the rose and lychee crepe cake. We ordered via the kiosk and got the mango sunshine souffle pancake ($16.50) and well as a couple drinks. My drink was the white peach lemon jasmine bliss ($6.25), with 50% sweetness and less ice. Even though there are signs everywhere saying that it takes 15-20 minutes for the souffle pancakes to be cooked, ours came out super quickly, in 5 minutes or so. We got it with the sauce on the side, but I regret doing that as I saw others getting it with the sauce on top and it was beautiful. The pancake was super fluffy and a bit eggy as well. We all really enjoyed it with the mango sauce. I made the mistake of eating the pancake first before trying a sip of my tea. The pancake was pretty sweet, so I could barely taste my drink, but I think it was good? I could taste a bit of the lemon but definitely not the white peach, which is a lighter flavor. I got a slice of their Hokkaido cheese cake roll for $7 to go and had it the next day. It was okay but definitely a bit pricy for what you get. I'd love to come back to try their other desserts and pancakes!

Motto Tea Cafe was alright. I walked in and was greeted by 2 ordering kiosks. The pastries were…read moreyummy, but I wasn't too crazy about the drinks. I ordered a matcha coco jasmine tea and I found that the jasmine flavor completely took over. The oolong peach crepe cake was yummy! It had little peach chunks throughout. Good oolong/peach flavor was light, airy, and slightly sweet. The black sesame chiffon roll was also light and subtly sweet with a nice nutty flavor. The cafe itself was pretty small with 3 small tables, 1 big table, and bar seatings with charging ports. The bathroom was closed and it was really warm inside. I couldn't see myself studying or staying too long, which may be for the best since parking is tricky and street parking has a 2 hour limit. An okay experience, but I don't see myself coming back.

If you're a chocolate lover, this cake is a dream. It's rich and decadent without being overwhelming, incredibly moist, and has beautiful, prominent layers that make every bite satisfying. The frosting is smooth, creamy, and best of all, not overly sweet (the perfect Asian-approved level of sweetness!). They also added a chocolate "Happy Birthday" plaque for my mom, which was such a thoughtful finishing touch. Everyone at the party was asking where the cake was from. We'll definitely be making this our go-to spot for birthdays and special occasions!

Unfortunately, I wasn't quite as impressed with the coffee. I ordered an iced Americano, which just didn't stand out in terms of the coffee itself, and a latte that was pretty mid. The server was super nice, though, so no complaints about the service! I know this is a patisserie and not a specialty coffee shop, so I wasn't expecting the coffee to be the main attraction. That said, at $5.50 for an Americano and $6.50 for a latte, I'd say stop by for the pastries, but I'd probably skip the coffee.

Flavors I've enjoyed are butter brickle, chocolate chip, mocha almond fudge, pistachio, matcha, sea salt caramel, English toffee, and butter pecan. Bruster's also offer sorbet. Each year, I wait for the dragonfruit mango sorbet to be featured. When the dragonfruit mango sorbet is offered, I'm there! They have kick'n mango strawberry which actually has a little spicy kick to it! Also offered are Italian icees, sherbet, and non-dairy/oat milk. Have fun at Bruster's!

The product is consistent and perfect every time. Portions are pretty big. Even the single serve can be shared between 2 people. Please look up the menu before arriving. Usually to order you walk in all the way to the kiosk and order from there. If the line is long there's also a QR code on the right side as you enter so you can order from your phone as well. The only thing that's been a consistent issue is there's nowhere to sit. Seating is available inside and there's even a few tables outside but this place is so popular that all the seats are always taken. Be prepared to take your desserts to go. You can walk up to the pick up area and ask for lids.

Easy to find something for every kind of sweet tooth: chocolate cakes, cream puffs, tiramisu, cookies, sweet breads, etc. Prices are nicely priced. We got a variety and were happy with everything. I liked seeing that trays of items were completely sold out. Must be good! Service is not the friendliest. It would be better if they got rid of all that junk plastic candy mess on the top of the displays. It makes the small space feel smaller, it pulls away from all the lovely pastries, and the women behind the counter can't even see over it when they ask you what you want.
