    I'LL NEVER FORGIVE HUI LAU SHAN FOR LEAVING THE 626. The closest one to me is around an hour away, so when I was visiting my boyfriend and there being a closer one nearby, I had to stop at this one. Plaza is a super fisted PvP zone since there's lots of eateries, cafes, and other businesses. Just park a bit further and walk in, since no one wants to walk. Long line for people ordering as well, but I think you can order online for pick up. Strong durian smell here and it's not as cute as what the Rowland Heights location used to be (mango plushies and huge wall art of their cute mango and fruit mascots). Because of people crowding at the tables in the middle, it was hard to tell where the ordering line was until others were cutting in line. So maybe just move those tables. A bit dirtier because of the crowds, but the service was efficient despite the crowds. I got my favorite mango pomelo sago and mango chewy ball and it's delicious as any of the other locations. Delicious sweet mango taste, not too tart. Sweet and yummy and fresh. Great combination of textures and taste. Already dreaming of my next visit.

    The mango desserts are tasty. There is a variety of different flavor combinations with mango, as well as Nancy desserts. The iced desserts and the drinks were both well made. The cafe is near and clean inside and the staff is quick and efficient. I think the desserts here are a great value. I recommend trying their Mango Chewy Ball dessert if it's your first time. I haven't tried something here that isn't good.

    Mango dessert to finish off the night. Looking for something sweet and used Yelp to see what was close by in the area we were currently at. This location is on the smaller side with some seating inside and limited seating outside. The service was just ok. The desserts were consistant to other locations and they did not disappoint. Went with a mango treat and and a smoothie. both wwere devoured even though they said they didint want anything, lol. D5 Mango coconut juice with aloe jelly was so cool and refreshing. loved the jelly and mango. Flavors compllemented eachother. A4 Mango chewy balls was sweat and delicious with mango chunks, mango balls, and I want to say mango ice cream. it was flavorful and satisfying. Subtracting one star because tables needed cleaning and shairs were very limited. Definately stopping by again when Im in the Milpitas area.

    Been to this location a few times now. Deemed it one of the least preferred spot out of other HLS locations. We ordered: A4 mango chew ball (ice cream on the side) $8.50 ice cream tasted more like a coconut ice cream D3 pomelo and mango with sago $8.95 Drink was good, but for some reason, sago here is frozen. There have been times where the inside of the store has weird smells...from chemicals..to sewage smells. Some seating inside. Hectic parking lot during peak hours. Not the best HLS location.

    Anytime in this plaza, I pretty much always stop by this Hui Lau Shan location for dessert. Can often times be packed, but coming on a weekday night, there were only a few of us. The chewy ball toppings are what I come here for. Chewy (as the name implies) and just the right amount of sweet. Mango is sweet, albeit seasonal. Sometimes it may be a bit sour, but I obviously don't hold them accountable for that. For drinks, can't go wrong with anything sago. This is one of the few places that makes it right. I can't stop coming back. See you in two weeks Hui Lau Shan.

    You need to stop by this place if you like mango. Honestly their menu is extremely extensive so you should drop by here if you like chinese desserts! Taste: We loved most everything we got. I really enjoyed the taro dessert. The only complaint is that some of the mochi balls were a little too starchy. Other than that we enjoyed everything. Parking: Plaza parking! It's a bit busy so you might have to be a little patient Seating: This is quite limited. There's a free tables but that's it.

    This is a dessert review rather than a drink review since I think their drinks are much better and I usually get drinks instead of a dessert. My wife wanted to try the dessert out so we got that instead. [[ We ordered ]] 1.) Jumbo Pomelo & Mango with Sago - $14.00 2.) Extra Topping - Chewy Ball - $1.75 3.) Extra Topping - Coconut Noodle - $1.75 [[Some notes]] (a) After tax and tip, it was close to $20. I think this is a bit pricey for dessert and the quantity given I would say isn't worth the price. (b) I highly do not recommend getting the chewy ball since I think for ~$2.00, it's not worth it. It was chewy and sweet though but I wouldn't add this as an extra in the future just based on how little you get. (c) The Coconut Noodle was good and they gave a lot so I think this is a worthwhile add on. (d) I think since the dessert came in a to-go container, it's actually really hard to share the dessert with someone since its difficult to eat. We even sat next to each other to try to make it easier but it was still hard. I recommend ordering the smaller version of the dessert twice and each person eating it by themselves.

    Vince H.

    Visiting SJ, we saw this place when we were exploring around the area. Decided to give it a try, we got the Jumbo Pomelo Mango w/ Sago (J2). It was very refreshing especially during these warmer days and the mango was tasty, as theyre getting into season too. Perfect dessert to split with my gf and the mango puree at the bottom was creamy and rich. Inside was clean and i appreciate how they have wet wipes at every table! Cashier was quick with our order and our dessert came within a few minutes of ordering, even during the rush when we went.

    Hui Lau Shan is my wife's go-to whenever she wants to get some comfort sweets! Mainly because their well known drinks are freshly made of fresh mango and they are not like boba shops that only offer teas and fruit juice drinks. We usually visit their Cupertino and Valley Fair locations, this Milpitas shop actually is a lot bigger and less crowded.

    Love hui lau Shan. And happier there's one closer to me. Everything is delicious from their drinks to snacks. Get the mango mochi and the pancakes!

    Mango coconut sago drinks!
    Tim Y.

    Hui Lau Shan is my favorite drink spot! I actually prefer this over boba. Unfortunately, there are way more boba shops out there than this place. Normally, I stop by their Cupertino store but this location is easier to get to with a larger parking lot. A big plus is also the lack of a long line compared to the other location. While their vast menu can be a bit overwhelming with all the choices, you can't go wrong with anything here. It just depends on your personal preference of fruit and combination of toppings. My usual is their mango sago or mango pomelo. Both are amazingly refreshing. The fresh mango and slightly frozen sago is heaven! I've placed my drink orders in person and online, both are efficient and surprisingly quick! The employees I've interacted here with have always been friendly. They are located at that large Asian shopping plaza on Barber Lane, about 5 or 6 stores to the left of 99Ranch.

    First time trying their Mango Pancake and it's now my favorite Hui Lau Shan item. It looks like a pillow made of very thin crepe stuffed with cream and slices of sweet ripe mango surrounded by the cream. The cream had the consistency of whipped cream mixed with marshmallow cream. You get two pieces for about $8.

    D3 mango and pomelo sago
    Sho R.

    I stopped by on a Sunday afternoon. The place had a good number of people. But I still got a seat. D3 mango and pomelo sago drink was my favorite. It had a scoop of ice cream as well. It was tough to drink it through a straw. I opened it and ate with a spoon. A4 mango chewy balls bowl was my other item. It was almost the same as my first item, except for the chewy balls. It was good too, but I think I should have gone for something slightly different.

We don't even need presents. We don't need cake. We just need Coco Corn. If this review reaches the right person, you have the opportunity to make two grown adults stop talking about this drink every single time we pass Tong Sui. Our friends are exhausted. Our families are concerned. I'm sure tong sui employees are weirded out how much we love this drink every time we ask. We have become known as "the crazy coco corn people" The one star isn't because the food or service is bad/it's simply to bring attention to this very serious matter in hopes the right person sees it. The moment Coco Corn becomes a permanent menu item (or at least makes a birthday comeback), I'll happily change this to five stars. Please... let this be the best birthday we can ever ask for.

As soon as we walked in, we were greeted warmly by the cashier and we browsed around leisurely looking at all the different food items. This establishment is small, but there are so many different offerings: pineapple cakes (a Taiwanese staple), chili oil, tea, coffee, ice cream, and so much more. I'd really love to come back here and try out the more unique foods like their rice cakes and mung bean ice cream, but my husband and I got a notification that our table was ready so we went to eat our lunch. We returned after our meal and were greeted again. We looked at all the pineapple cakes again because my family enjoys them so much and my husband wanted to gift them a box for a Christmas present. All of the boxes are so beautifully designed and we finally settled on one. The cashier was very kind and talked to us about the iTaiwan membership and how to get the most benefits out of it. She also packaged the pineapple cakes in a cute bag for us for free! A very cozy story run by cute people. I will most definitely visit again.

The croffle and ice cream were very good! Not too sweet and just savory enough. If I could critique one thing, I wish the croffle was a little bit crispier! For the matcha latte, it was a bit sweeter than I expected. Unfortunately, milk alternatives here are limited and premixed matcha lattes only have whole milk. Would give it a 5-star if there could be more icecream options that are non-dairy! Interior: 4-5 tables with seating enough for around 12-20 people. They also sell mini cakes and pints which are SO cute! I will definitely try it next time.
