Dessert spot that specializes in soft serve and taiyaki. I came in at a time when it wasn't busy,…read moreso my service was really quick and friendly. The place was pretty chill as well. I had just eaten dinner so I've kept it pretty simple here. I ordered the swirl with pure milk and pineapple dole whip. A simple yet tasty and satisfying combo. The serving size was pretty generous, especially relative to the price. Just a great place to grab some quick soft serve in the area.

It looks aesthetically appealing in their photos online but it wasn't as good as it looked. Saw…read morethis off Yelp so decided to try it. We were the only customers. The girl working the counter was a young girl just getting by her summer day job. She was nice but timid. It was our first time there and a little more energy on her end could've been better. Ordered the ube swirl, pineapple dole whip, mung bean taiyaki, and a custard one togo. The taiyaki that goes onto the ice cream is a lot bigger than one we ordered to go. I thought it would be as big, but when I got it, it was so much smaller and flat. Also, the taiyaki that goes on top of the ice cream was old. It had been sitting there for a while or was made earlier as it was hard and difficult to bite. The red bean inside I also assumed was a paste like how they make the Japanese version, however there were whole pieces in there. It was okay, but I thought they'd be like paste. Overall, the only thing that was good was the ube swirl and the pineapple dole whip. It was also extremely warm in the shop, like no AC in the triple digits summer heat. Had to eat it elsewhere. I most likely won't be back.

Crispy and fluffed is located at the very right end of the plaza (lots of ample parking!) This…read moreplace is my newest go to spot for a sweet treat (besides boba) in sgv! I love the asian twist on the ice cream sandwich with bolo baos! If you order a bolo bao, they reheat it for you. You can choose two toppings for free and you can sample flavors. I couldn't decide between jasmine or lavender so i did half of each. My favorite was definitely the lavender as the jasmine wasn't as strong as I would prefer. They have a few tables inside to enjoy your treat. I think crispy and fluffed deserves more recognition and I wish them success!

Food & Ice Cream: 5/5 This is no ordinary ice cream spot!…read moreThey specialize in bolo bun (pineapple bun) ice cream sandwiches, so if you love both pineapple buns and ice cream, this place hits the spot every time. I'm so happy they're still around! So far, I've tried the sesame, Coffee & Cookies, and Nutella Cookies & Cream flavors. I love that they let you sample the ice cream before deciding. Once you choose, they make the bolo bun ice cream sandwich fresh for you and can even cut it in half if you want to share. Customer Service: 5/5 The sampling makes it easy to explore different flavors without committing right away, and I appreciate that they're happy to cut the sandwich in half for sharing. Location & Parking: 5/5 The shop is tucked away on the side of a shopping plaza, so it can be easy to miss. There's plenty of free parking available, though, which makes stopping by convenient. Ambiance: 5/5 It's a great little hangout spot with seating and games available. The atmosphere is usually quiet and low-key since it hasn't been very crowded during my visits, making it a nice place to sit, enjoy dessert, and hang out. Overall: 5/5 Such a unique dessert spot that I'm happy is still around. The bolo bun and ice cream combination keeps me coming back, and I'll definitely stop by whenever I'm in town!

It had real passion fruit seeds throughout, and you could really taste the quality of the milk. I sampled a few of the other flavors too, and honestly loved every single one! There are so many things I want to try next time, including more ice cream flavors, popsicles, brownies, cookies, pies, and cakes. Definitely will be coming back! Highly recommend if you're in the area and looking for delicious, high-quality homemade-style ice cream.

Service is not shabby at all! The employees were incredibly friendly and welcoming…read more I chose the "Fresh Peach" flavor in a single scoop. The ice cream itself was a little chalky but definitely still hit the spot on this hot day. Pricing was not great. $6.95 before tax/tip for a single 4oz scoop was, in hindsight, not worth it. Additionally, I'm not the biggest fan of non-server tipping, and just like most other places, Mother Moo Creamery has a big ole' "Add Tip" option when paying. Yikes. Great staff. Fine ice cream. Horrendous price per serving. Overall 3/5 stars.

We've absolutely enjoyed that, although my ultimate favorite is still the coffee ice cream! So delicious! Swing by and give them a try. You won't regret it! And a special shoutout to Sabrina! She's one of the best employees at this location. She's always so friendly and kind, and she immediately made us feel welcome when we were new to the city and to Moo Moo Mia. We've been coming back ever since! Thanks, Sabrina!

Delicious ice cream that tastes gourmet but also fresh! The flavors we had were strawberry sorbet,…read morelemon sorbet, and the July seasonal honey lavender ice cream. My personal favorite was the honey lavender but all of them were tasty and refreshing. What I liked about all the ones we tried was that everything tasted non-artificial. Everything tasted like they used real ingredients which is much appreciated! They have a wide selection to choose from and a few new speciality flavors a month. Plenty of seating. The perfect spot for dessert!

I came here with a friend after dinner to get some dessert. There was no line, so we were able to…read moretry some samples and order right away. I tried the lychee and matcha soft serve flavors, and ended up getting the matcha flavor. Those flavors were good, the lychee and matcha were pungent. But the texture of the soft serve wasn't my favorite. The texture wasn't my favorite, it was more of an icy texture as oppose to a creamy silky texture which I would have preferred. I usually like the Oreo topping on my soft serve since it gives it a crunch, but it just didn't taste that good after a few bites. This soft serve was also a bit pricey, it was around $7 for the soft serve and topping, which was a bit disappointing since it wasn't that great. My friend also got their crunchy nut ice cream and didn't like it. I wish I liked this place more since they have Asian flavors but unfortunately it wasn't my favorite. Maybe if they improve the texture of their soft serve, I would reconsider.

I walk…read moreinside... seems relatively busy, i go to the front counter and tell the cashier that i am there to pickup my order. He smiles and says the blender is down for the night. I say, "what does that mean??" He said they can only make 1 of my 3 drinks and i would have to choose 2 more that are not blended. I tell him to give me a dew minutes, i then proceed to request 2 new drinks... he then tells me they are out of boba. ‍‍‍ At this point i told him to just give me 2 random drinks. I am not going to sit there all night only to be told they are out of stuff or their machines are not working. One blender? I mean if this is your bread and butter, i would suggest getting a 2nd blender, even if it's a crappy one from Walmart for $35. This is like a hamburger stand telling you they don't have a grill to make a burger. Also, out of boba on a Tuesday (off night??) Stock up. Who's doing inventory? I was more angry at the fact that they let over 30 minutes go by and didn't tell me via email or phone call that the blender was down. I would canceled my order and promptly received a refund... i hope. I wasn't offered any kind of remedy. No partial refund, no refund, no extra drinks. Just your kinda outta luck. We don't have the proper tools to make you a drink. I will never return here again. I used to like this place and even used to come here when they offered 3 drinks for the price of 2. After spending $20 on 3 drinks (2 of them not even being my choice). I will forever skip this place for the humongous disappointment and terrible service. There are boba places all around this area. Do yourself a favor and skip this one.

Not going to lie, I was quite scared reading these reviews but I needed my water gallons filled…read more It was either my luck or in fact, a change of owners/ people working, but the lady behind the counter was very nice & understanding. She helped answer my questions & even offered me a bottled, cold sample of their alkaline water. As long as I don't encounter the rude lady who lives in this review thread, I will be coming back. Water is reasonably priced & they do in fact accept card payments (with a fee). Overall, there are plenty of signs if socializing isn't your thing, quick & convenient for being self serve, and open late, unlike other places.

I highly recommend anyone reading this review to not come here and to visit another local location that you can manually control the water until you reach the full amount. The owners, whether it's the Asian lady or white guy, are not reasonable so if you expect any type of resolution, you will not get it here. Save your money and find a location that actually has great service and will treat you properly when it comes to discrepancies.

My only complaint is the quality of the clear to-go cups. I've gotten drinks to go twice now, and both times I've had issues with either the cup breaking or the lid not snapping securely into place. Unfortunately, it did cause my coffee to spill in my car and all over my outfit, which was definitely frustrating. That being said, I don't think that reflects on the coffee or the staff at all. The service has always been nice, and the space itself is spacious and comfortable. I'd definitely come back, I just hope they consider switching to sturdier to-go cups!
