    Nutella Croffle
    Shivani K.

    This place is always busy - and for good reason. The desserts are very tasty, the works are quick to get orders out. Definitely a lot of younger people studying and hanging around for hours , but still plenty of space for people to come and go. The teas and coffee drinks are very good.

    We visited Lumi Dessert and thought the space was really cute. We liked the mood lighting and the cozy fall-winter vibe. The bingsu itself was okay. The fruit tasted like it was either bought frozen or sliced before it was ripe and then frozen, so it didn't have much flavor on its own. Without the condensed milk the bingsu would have been pretty bland. Service was standard, nothing bad but nothing special. Overall, it's probably a spot we'd only go to because they stay open later than other dessert places, not necessarily for the quality of the bingsu.

    The food was ok, they only have one level of sugar so if you would like a low sugar level, they can't provide that. The service was good. But it was weird because we order and they don't asked to us for here or for to go, and they immediately put our food for to go when we wanted eat inside, we had enough time to eat inside before they closed. Also, the shave iced was not similar to the examples that they exposed in their shelves.

    If you like banana desserts, definitely get the banana waffle. The waffle is flaky and light, unlike a typical bubble waffle (like that of Happy Lemon). Lots of bananas and ice cream. I didn't care for the cookie butter, but I'm just not a fillings fan. The injeolmi bingsu was pretty typical though I did like the legit injeolmi rice cake where others just substitute with white mochi. I would return and will try the Redmond one since I'm closer to that.

    Great spot to study, meet a date, or hang out with your friends! They have coffee, tea, boba, and shaved ice! Shaved ice is Korean style and is made from milk and not water - so it is a lot softer and tastes great. I'd recommend getting a regular size for 2 people. Staff are chill and nice - just small cozy cafe vibes.

    I've been wanting to try this dessert place for a while but finally had the chance to come up to Lynwood when I was doing some errands nearby. My partner and I decided to come here on an afternoon for a quick dessert break. We were craving for some shaved ice at the time. Upon entering the shop, there were numerous tables around with some window seats available. There was a glass display by the wall with fake dessert models that shows what each desserts look like. There were only two people working behind the counter at the time so we had to flagged them when ordering. We decided to share a mango cheesecake bingsu and a strawberry milk tea to try. Overall, the mango cheesecake bingsu was delicious! Presentation was amazing and too pretty to eat! The shaved ice is like snow-like texture and tasted milky. They load a lot of frozen mango chunks and fresh mangos onto the dessert with a mango sorbet on top. Drizzle it all with condensed milk. I wished there were more pieces of cheesecake to go with the mango though. The strawberry milk tea was okay, not enough tea flavor imo. So glad I got to try this place out! It is a nice cozy place to hang out especially those who enjoys desserts. One thing that will be helpful with ordering is adding a kiosk by the counter. I heard there's another location in Redmond so I will have to give that location a try next time.

    It is mango season right now and their mango cheesecake bingsu is a must order for the summer. The mango is super sweet, juicy, and soft. Good to share with friends and family, we got a shareable size that was about $20. Comes with condensed milk and mini cheesecake bites.

    Apple Pie Golden Toast
    Talha F.

    I went to LUMI Dessert Cafe with my cousin and his wife and we had a few desserts. We had the Golden Toast Apple Pie ($17.75), which came with buttery toasted milk bread and caramelized apples, crumbled biscuit, homemade whipped cream, and caramel sauce drizzle. The dessert came with a scoop of locally made vanilla bean ice cream that was rich and creamy. We also tried the Strawberry Nutella Egg Waffle ($15.75), and it included fresh strawberries, Nutella, granola, and chocolate ice cream. Both were delicious and beautifully garnished. The portion sizes were huge and perfect for sharing, which makes it a great place for a friend hangout or low-key date night. The atmosphere is cozy and modern, and it's nice to relax and treat yourself to something sweet. Keep in mind that there isn't any table service. You pay ahead of time, pick up your food when it is ready, and you clean up after yourself when you are done. It is more of a self-service, laid-back environment. It is a bit pricey for dessert, but the presentation, quality, and portion size are worth it.

    Went around closing time so props to them for not rushing us. Everything was good. 20$ per plate included a 10% tip, so kind of pricey.

    Mango and Berries Toast

    The food and service was amazing. Each dessert is probably enough for 2-3 people but my husband each got one and that was our dinner. Both of them were so good.

    Fake Food Display

    Nice dessert cafe with a large menu full of treats, including Bingsu, Honey/Brick Toast, Milk Teas, and more. This was our first shaved ice/snow spot after moving from Michigan, and I was a bit surprised at the pricing and portion sizes. Seattle is more expensive, yes, but portion sizes here seem to be only a third of what I'm used to combined with pricing that's around 50% more. Not to mention that looking at the past pictures of the menu, it looks like over the past year Lumi raised the prices by 25-30%. Yikes! Taro Bingsu, Single ($14.99) - This bingsu has a red bean core surrounded by super light and fluffy snow filled with taro flavor. There are fruit jellies and sliced almond surrounding the rim of the bowl the bingsu is served in. I'm not actually sure they belong in this dish - the jellies become a bit hard, and the almonds kind of feel out of place. Maybe chunks of tender, taro pudding, and taro balls would be a better fit? There's a scoop of vanilla Ice cream added to the top. I have no idea who the manufacturer is, but it's kind of gummy and icy. I like that Lumi gives the condensed milk on the side, which allowed us to sweeten to preference. This bingsu comes with boba, but we asked for it on the side to try it in the freshest form. Even when freshly scooped and warm, the boba is firm, so when cooled in the dessert, the pearls become really hard. I'm not sure I would get the boba drinks here given the texture. (4/5) Mango & Berries Golden Toast ($17.75) - Staring with the bread, it's a thick brick toast bread with a nicely chewy and fluffy interior and good toasted exterior. Lumi takes the lazy way out by only cutting four crisscrosses in the toast instead of hollowing it out and cubing, toasting, and reinserting the insides like other places. This makes it so that we had to cut the bread ourselves for the most part using the butter knife that we were supplied with. A butter knife is wholly inappropriate for this application - Lumi should really supply bread or steak knives for the toast. Otherwise, the toast is covered with a mango syrup and topped with raspberries, blueberries, canned pineapple, and cut mango. For some reason they sprinkle some rosemary on top as well, which I found a bit puzzling. There's also a scoop of mango sorbet, which I found to be on the icy side, with some hard, larger pieces of ice embedded inside. (4/5) The desserts served at Lumi are certainly tasty, but I'm not sure I'm willing to regularly spend $40 on dessert! As a side note, I also wish they had non fruit toasts!

    Taro bingsoo, strawberry blossom toast, Spanish latte and yuzu tea
    Megan G.

    Delicious and fresh. They have a pretty large menu of desserts and drinks. It is very pricey. A small bingsoo, strawberry toast, tea, and a coffee were almost $50. The strawberry blossom toast was the star for me. The crispy but soft bread and all the toppings were the perfect combo. I was pleasantly surprised with the Spanish coffee. I was hesitant as I expected it to be too sweet, but it was perfect. If anything on the less, sweet side, which contrasted great with the desserts. The Taro bingsoo is one of their more popular desserts that sells out frequently, but honestly it missed the mark for me. I definitely will be back to try some of their other flavors like brown sugar and tiramisu. The shop itself is cute and has a good amount of seating. Service was friendly.

    This dessert place is a paradise for all bingsu lovers. We've tried both locations, and they consistently deliver on quality. We especially love the matcha red bean, injeolmi, and mango cheesecake bingsu, the latter of which contains generous chunks of real mango and cheesecake. However, I do have some concerns with the service and operations at the Lynnwood location. I've been there several times, and each visit has been the same. On my most recent visit, there were three or four employees working, and only two tables ahead of us. Then three additional staff members joined, bringing the total to about six or seven people working behind the scenes. The problem is, despite having so many staff, the service feels like fast food. You're called to pick up your own order, and you also have to clean up after yourself. This setup feels like a fast food level of service, yet they expect a 20% tip. It makes me wonder why they have so many people working if the service is so self-reliant.

We visited specifically to order a sweet corn latte, a drink which we've never had before and were interested in trying. Sweet Corn Latte, Iced 20oz ($7) - Surprisingly sweetness adjustments are allowed on this drink. The drink itself has a nice mellow corn aroma and a balanced milky flavor. It isn't too sweet. There's some fresh corn mixed in that's not that sweet compared to most canned sweet corn. There's stabilized whipped cream sweet on top studded with corn and then sprinkled with cocoa powder for some color. We asked to upgrade to 20oz but didn't get charged any more. Not sure how that works! (4/5) The drink probably has better presentation if ordered for dine-in rather than to-go given that the cap they give crushes the whipped cream. Photos from other Yelpers indicate that they have domed lids but for some reason they gave us a flat lid. K Cafe Dabang serves some pretty tasty drinks. We shop at the H-Mart around once a month, so it makes sense to return to try some more sweets. Bathrooms: Two individual rooms, one for men, one for women.
