    Pretty relaxed ambiance. Plenty of seating available and the food comes out in about 7-9 min.

    Mango Coconut Sago
    Khanh T.

    I was craving a mango dessert drink and Hui Lau Shan popped up in my head so here I am. I got the Mango & Coconut with Sago and it was a blended drink. Even though mango is out of season, the drink was still really good and refreshing, no sourness at all. My friend got the Mango Swirl and he was alright with it, he said it's just mango smoothie but he wished he added toppings to it. The prices for the drinks are pretty cheap, between $6-7. I loved the Hui Lau Shan in Houston and this location in Austin tasted exactly like it, maybe even better.

    I had heard of this place that makes desserts using mangos. Thought I would check them out and see what the hype is. It's a small side street. There is street parking. I did notice they open at noon. And I had arrived right at 11:56pm so I waited a few minutes until they opened. After looking over the menu I decided on the mango ice cream in a bubble waffle cone. The bubble waffle is made fresh. It's pretty large in size. The mango ice cream is good. It's creamy and tastes like mango. There is also small bite size chunks of mango as well. There is also these clear jelly clumps. They sort of had a coconut flavor. They were chewy and clear, and totally foreign to me. But they were good. I thought it was a nice dessert. And it wasn't that expensive for the amount you get. $8.50 Cute little dinning area with table and chairs. After I had sat down a group of people came in. Another small group came with their laptops. So it is a busy place first thing in the afternoon on a Monday. They do offer free WiFi.

    They posted a notice saying that mangos are not in season, but they were still really sweet. I love how creative they got with mango. It's my favorite fruit. This was a delightful little place to get dessert after dinner and a really cute spot to eat in. The only thing is we didn't love the crisps, but everything else was great.

    I got mango toppings on coconut jelly base. It was very refreshing and delicious. The mangos are not in seasons so it's not super sweet. They should have seasonal menu instead of relying heavily on mangos

    Came here to try some mango Asian dessert and it was pretty good. The dessert depends a lot on whether or not the mango is ripe and sweet. I got the mango triple delight which was mango, coconut and black glutenous rice. The combo together was unexpectedly good though I wish it was a tad sweeter. This is definitely not one of my favorite dessert places but a good option to try on days I want a more fruit based dessert. They're definitely good at what they offer. It's also a nice place you to hang out with friends much like a boba tea shop. In fact, they also offer a lot of mango boba tea like drinks.

    Mango romance & mango coconut duo mix
    Nancy G.

    I am a huge mango lover, but unfortunately the mango did not deliver. :( The mango romance had 3 different smaller size desserts and I think it would've been so much better if the mango, which is the main star, was actually ripe. It was so sour and hard, which made me not want to keep eating it. 2/5 The best dessert of all was the mango coconut duo mix, it had black rice at the bottom which reminded me of mango sticky rice, but its own flavor to it. It would've been so much better with good mango. 4/5 Overall, nice location, parking is found on the street or behind the parking garage. Decent seating area, friendly staff! :)

    My friend and I met at 6:30 pm on a Thursday night and the shop was empty when we went in, but by the time we paid and got our orders people started rolling in. Our deserts came out fast; I tried a mango sago and it was delicious. The serving size for the price is reasonable. Despite the mangos not being in season, they were still sweet and ripe. The shop was bright, airy and clean. There were a variety of tables to sit at, and even an outdoor picnic table. Remember to put in your phone number into the table when you order so you can earn points to their rewards program! I also ordered a black sesame soup before I left and they gave me the option to get it hot or cold. I opted in for a hot one, so although there was a little bit of a wait to warm up the soup, it was well worth the wait! I will be back for when I am craving a sweet treat!

    Mochi
    Sunny C.

    Pretty good light fruity mango desserts. Most of the desserts are mango based so the flavors can change based on the batch or seasons. The mochis this month was more ripe and sweet while last month was a bit more tart. Good spot to take some snacks on the go!

    Hui Lau Shan is easily in my top three dessert spots in Austin, and it's almost entirely because of one item: the black rice in coconut pudding. I've never had a dessert like it anywhere else in Austin. It's not overly sweet, but incredibly addictive! It's the main reason I keep coming back. The interior is bright and nice, though the chairs are way too low for the tables. Cleanliness can vary depending on how busy it gets, but service is good and I never wait too long for my order. There really isn't another spot like Hui Lau Shan in Austin. For unique desserts alone, this place is a must-try. 10/10 dessert spot for me!!

    This place is a pretty unique spot for ATX since we do not have many mango type dessert spots here. It is a chain from Hong Kong that makes desserts out of a specific type of mango so obviously their signature items are any of the mango desserts! I absolutely love the coconut jelly with black rice. TBH, this is the one item that keeps me coming back. I do enjoy their mango mochi but I think it is a pretty high price point to justify. And we were a little disappointed in their drinks, they have always come out slightly lukewarm. I will always pick to grab a drink at a boba spot over here. There is a decent amount of searing but usually it's a little busy so it can be hard to get a seat. But we often come in and grab stuff to go. There are a few parking spots outside and also a garage where you can get free parking! I like that there is a rewards system too.

    The server dropped my drink at the start but it's okay because none spilled and she looked sorry. The drink was really good in the end and I loved it. I also had a durian item I didn't really like it but I could tell if I liked durian I would've enjoyed it a lot.

    Pretty good dessert place to hang out w friends. Service is fine. Can't go wrong w Egg waffles w ice cream. Red bean is not overly sweet. Mango is not sweet because it's not in season right now. Overall it's a good place to visit.

When we went our choices were $9-$10 donut base desserts. I say base because the toppings cover up the donut visually. Despite that, there's no covering that scrumptious taste and texture. Wowaweea. Yes, you feel your cells expand and pants tighten and it is for sure run club pre and post, but quite worth it. These divine donuts have that cakey interior I love so much. We had the Puddin': cream cheese icing, vanilla pudding, fresh bananas with nilla wafers. According to the menu. Ours didn't have any nilla wafers and the presentation was uneven, hence the four stars. I didn't miss the wafers. The icing and pudding were one goopy topping and the bananas slices were half scattered slices and half banana chunk that I had to separate. Side notes: Gourdough sits on a corner with parking spots that are not free. There's a pay via QR code so you'll need a phone or something to scan that. Boo for digital shackles. Next note- I feel like this is a low key meet up spot. Like the way they tried to make the first train cars on the MTA the singles car? There was a series of singles getting doughnuts and they were a little done up for the occasion. Who knows. With the little IG ready love seats and doughnuts made for sharing, you could walk away with extra sugar.

Even so, the ambience seems like the decorations were cute, but very cheap and damaged overtime with little to no repairs. But I didn't come here for aesthetics. I came here for great Boba tea and sweet treats. Unfortunately, I was disappointed. What looked like a traditional milk toast dessert, was literally four pieces of stale bread, toasted and stacked on top of each other. that tasted freezer burnt with lots of sauce on top. No topping between each layer so it was not flavorful or tasty and all you could taste was a weird chemical flavor from the bread. Same thing with the ice cream, so freezer burnt that it tasted of chemicals, cardboard, and didn't even melt despite sitting on the plate for 15+ minutes. The Taro tea itself was fine with the crème brûlée topping, but the brown sugar Boba had the same chemical "going bad" flavor to it. It was super hard and bitter tasting instead of sweet. The soufflé pancakes were fine, but the ice cream was terrible on that too. It's hard to mess up Ice Cream, but somehow they managed.

The cheesecake featured a thin, creamy top layer that paired nicely with the soft, cloud-like texture underneath. Each bite melted in my mouth, making it unlike any cheesecake I have had before. It was both unique and completely satisfying. The shop itself is small and designed primarily for grab-and-go customers, with no seating area available.

The dining room is bright, airy, and calm, as a soothing oasis in an overstimulating desert. They've been on the scene for over 7 years, though it's still as busy as ever.

With such a variety of dishes comprised of equally diverse flavors, colors, and textures, it puts the average bento box to shame. You get a steaming bowl of miso soup, pickled veggies, furikake-topped rice, and even a soft pine nut cookie to compliment the star of the show, which is a perfectly portioned serving of tofu and vegetable stir fry. I could happily eat this every day and. The yaki udon is a great standalone entree with tons of staying power thanks to those thick, chewy noodles. Plenty of tender-crisp vegetables and crispy tofu balance things out with all the protein and fiber you need to make it from lunch to dinner without any struggle. There are tons of lovely little bites, too. Onigiri are possibly their signature snack, and for good reason. Both the pickled vegetable and avocado varieties were beautifully formed and deceptively simple, letting the quality of each ingredient shine.
