    Coffee27
    Bryan C.

    So first off this location dropped their franchise of Meet Fresh and is now been rebranded to Coffee27. Most of everything is still reusing Meet Fresh bowls and paper bowls/cups as they transition over on a lazy way. Ordered their signature Ice Grassy jelly named similar to how Meet Fresh had it. The grass jelly is still very good, with large colored mochi balls on it. The bottom ice is still nice and sweet but a bit different in texture than the Meet Fresh dark ice. All right other add ins like jelly and boba is missing. Still a great dessert and would still come here for it. Fruit shave ice has been completely phased out :( and the owner wants this to be more of a coffee place. I don't understand this as there are so many empty new coffee shops around and places like Twinkle Tea, Molly Tea, Cha Express, and 7 leaves already full this void and have much of us loyal to them already that there really isn't a room for another coffee shop... Service with Diana handling both ordering and making the orders was awesome and see her getting overwhelmed with just apologizing and trying to explain to transition to so many disappointed customers that ended up walking out is very discouraging. I do hope this place improves and does something different to draw people in but at the moment they will have a uphill battle. Give them a chance though as it's still a good place to kick back.

    I've never been to a more lackluster Meet Fresh or cafe or even franchise for that matter like ... barebones give us NOTHINGGGG Literally half the menu isn't even able to be ordered but they can't even take it off the kiosk and you have to reference all the notes + signs before you place your order because it being on the kiosk does not mean it is actually available !!! And you HAVE to order at the kiosk they won't take your order in person!!! The girl working there was actually so unfriendly like I am sorry that your management is doing a terrible job and you have to deal with everyone's questions ("hi sorry so does that mean XYZ is unavailable? Can ABC be substituted for DEF?") but these are valid questions given all the signs and everything going on! Also she THREW spoons onto the tray my friend was holding like ... that was so unnecessarily rude ?? The food was fine but ... service and management is NOT it !! Handle your inventory better and don't take out your frustrations on your guests!! No taro paste, no taro anything, no crystal boba, no mochi q, no mochi in general, no mango... just so much is unavailable and those ingredients are BUILT INTO the sets when you try to order! Don't get mad at us for wondering how to customize and go around it! See video for reference (muted on purpose... but it's pretty self explanatory)

    QQ mochi and pudding shaved ice
    Vira P.

    I'm the type that doesn't skip dessert. But I'm an old lady that needs to watch her blood sugar. So when I saw this beautiful Pudding & Q Mochi Milk Shaved Ice, I opted for 50% sugar It was so good! The sweetness of the milk in the shaved ice wasn't too sweet, which is just want I wanted. The mochi definitely had the QQ factor. They had a bouncy chew. The larger Q mochi consisted of a brown sugar mochi, which is basically boba, and a regular one. They were sweet, so it paired well with the less-sweet shaved ice. The mini Q mochi didn't taste like anything, so they were there purely for texture. There were also almond and caramel puddings. The almond pudding was reminiscent of haupia. And the caramel pudding was basically a flan. Though, it did have coffee notes. The melon jelly was a little sweet, and also brought a different chewy texture to the dessert along with the crunchy coconut flakes. And on top was a scoop of vanilla ice cream with caramel. This dessert was truly a feast for the eyes and stomach. Despite this dessert looking large, it was actually the medium size. It definitely could feed a party of 4, so it was plenty for a party of 2. We couldn't finish it. We were there late in the evening, and there were signs everywhere about the unavailability of the bubble waffles. The employees even taped a sign on their backs! We were there a second night, and even more dishes weren't available. So it seems it's better to get there earlier in the day, unless they're having inventory issues. It's a very large space with ample seating. And they have large screens where you can check your order number. It can get pretty noisy, but that's part of the vibe. I hope one day to get their waffles.

    Passion fruit icy

    Tried a new Meet Fresh location, and enjoyed our experience as always. This one is located in the front corner of the Hilton, which has underground parking (as well as some time-limited spots at ground level). I liked the decor of this location, and it is huge. The staff member I interacted with was very sweet, and helpful, and our dessert (the passion fruit icy) was fantastic. That being said, this also does have all the usual hallmarks of seemingly every Meet Fresh I visit: On the surface it looks clean, but all the tables are for some reason kind of sticky. Kiosks that make it overly difficult to find what it is you want to order (Which is why I had to find a staff member - the item I wanted wasn't listed in the section that it's supposed to be in). Menus scattered all over the counter, and this one had a lot of - while very cute and well drawn - signs saying they were out of a LOT of items. And clearly this was a long-term problem, not only because these signs had clearly had time put into drawing them, but also the menus had full sections blocked out with tape. It's just a lot of really simple things that could easily be fixed and make a Meet Fresh experience all that much better.

    It was definitely my first time here and I had a good experience here. The desserts I ordered were very nice and nicely presented and tasted good as well. Maybe I will order something else to try, but if not, I might order the same thing. The Boba drink was nice and fresh, especially on a hot weather. The service was well and efficient and accurate. It actually came out fast. Now that's a service!

    This is next to a hotel by Atlantic Times Square. This is a huge space with bright lighting, and lots of seating with couches and large tables. There's 2 large ordering screens at the front but you can also order with the staff at the front counter. I did this since it was taking a while with people taking their time to decide. The desserts and drinks came out pretty fast. I got a tofu pudding with taro balls and was pleasantly surprised that it wasn't too sweet at all! It didn't seem like there was much sugar added to the tofu pudding and taro. The only sugar came from the sweet soup. Very refreshing on a hot day!

    I like the location as is it's close to the freeway, restaurants, AMC, and supermarket with the hotels on top. There's some 30 min parking but otherwise you will need to walk from the structure. I parked at the 30 min so not sure if the structure is free or paid parking. You need to order from the kiosk. The items on the kiosks does not have a price tag. As a paying customer, I would like to know how much it cost. You can find out by either checking out and looking at the cost or go out of line and look at the front TV waiting for it to change to your item if it's on there. I ordered the Mango sago and the egg waffle in matcha red bean, chocolate and original to go. You need to make sure the boxes are not stacked once you get to the car so the cut out holes in the boxes allows the moisture to escape so the egg waffle doesn't get soggy.Personally I like the chocolate the best. Not too many places have egg waffle so I'm happy a spot closer to me has opened. The Mango sago was overly sweet but still good. However at $12.50+ tax and potential tip, it's quite expensive. I'll rather go pay for a meal or just get a boba drink.

    Order was ready for pick-up

    While I must confess a slight preference for traditional ordering methods, my difficulty with the kiosk is simply a matter of personal familiarity. Thankfully, a staff member kindly assisted me in ordering the Icy Passion Fruit Sorbet Bowl Signature, and I thoroughly enjoyed the delightful textural variety. My husband also appreciated the sorbet. I had initially hoped to order a mango shaved ice dessert, as pictured in the window display. I believe the mango-shaped items were mini q? I enjoyed all the toppings, while my husband enjoyed the Sorbet.

    I enjoyed trying Meet Fresh for the first time! It's a great place to chat and relax so i would come back here for dessert with friends! I do strongly feel that $15 is too expensive, especially if the medium is only a dollar cheaper. The dessert itself wasn't that special as well. The toppings were good but I preferred more flavored ice.

    First time.e trying out this location, vs the Temple City one. Love it! The staff is super friendly. The portions are huge! Tried two grass jelly specials and a shaved ice. Had plenty to bring home. Plenty of free parking in the attached garage (shared with Holiday Inn). Felt less crowded and not as chaotic as the Temple City location. Will be back!

    Icy Sherbet Bowl
    Travis P.

    Can never really go wrong with Meet Fresh (besides that its usually crowded) but I came to this one after watching at AMC nearby and it wasn't that crowded around dinner time. I ordered a ice sherbet bowl and it came out in about 2 minutes. Delicious dessert and everything was as I expected. Love that they opened until 11 pm on Friday so was able to hangout until it closed.

    Meet Fresh is a dessert spot in Monterey Park located in the same plaza with the Holiday Inn Express and a short walking distances to Atlantic Times Square. They serve refreshing drinks like tea,and shave ice and other kind desserts.

    Thai Tea Shaved Ice
    Justina N.

    I've tried multiple Meet Fresh locations and this one is pretty nice. The place wasn't too busy at night. Ordered a large Thai Tea shaved ice which was seriously huge. Definitely large enough to be split with at least 4 people. I think this is one of the better shaved ices because when the ice melts down, it still tastes like a regular Thai tea vs a watered down dessert. It might be a little sweet to start for some. It doesn't have a dedicated parking lot, but does have a parking structure with some 30 minute spots. The inside is spacious with a good amount of tables. But it might be hard to hear if your order is ready if you sit at the opposite end of the room

    I don't think they answer their phone

    Amazing taiyaki spot!…read more There's not too many in the SGV and they offer them at such an affordable price with tons of filling options. We also got a plain milk soft serve and it was probably one of the creamiest milks soft serve we've ever had. The self serve toppings bar is also a nice touch. The taiyaki came out pretty quick as well and they are located right next to golden deli, perfect to spot to grab some dessert after a warm bowl of pho.

    I had this place bookmarked for a long time but never got around to coming here due to its…read morelocation. This is in the same tiny plaza as Golden Deli and Bopomofo, so parking can be tough at peak dinner time. The good: the taiyaki texture was nice and crunchy. The ice cream was smooth and not icy. The price is good for amount you get. The bad: the store was extremely cramped and hot. It's a very tiny shop so easily felt packed inside. I was annoyed when they called my order but I was struggling to get through the shop to get my order. By that time the employee had walked away. I was annoyed because when she came back she completely ignored me and handed someone else their order and walked away. I don't understand why they keep the completed orders way behind the counter if they don't even verify the correct person is picking up... after being skipped over twice I finally cut in and interrupted the other employee for my order and she was like oh... sorry it's melted. Like yeah it's been sitting there and I didn't want to go into the employee area to get it! That was really irritating. The ube flavor was bland. It tasted like milk, I did not get any ube flavor. The custard in the taiyaki was just okay. The worst part was that the taiyaki had a really off putting taste on the outside... almost like the aftertaste of margarine or something, it bothered me. Overall the flavor and service was lacking and the experience inside was not good. I was not impressed by any aspect and would not recommend this place unless you were already dining in this plaza and wanted to just walk over.

    I came in the morning a little after they had just opened to grab some pastries for my birthday…read moreparty that I wanted to share with my friends that will be coming. I heard about this patisserie through referral and was excited when I saw the options and affordability they currently offer for their soft opening! Upon arriving, there was about 3 parties ahead of me and the entire bakery filled the air with smell of egg tarts and various pastries. I was just in heaven at that moment. I was immediately asked if I needed help, but of course I didn't know where to start so it took me awhile until I had to decide. I ended up ordering 10 of their Portuguese egg tart, 3 of their cheese tarts, and 3 of their coconut tart. Portuguese egg tart - 5/5 there seemed to be some differences between the ones in the baking paper vs the tin one with their texture, but overall it was creamy, eggy, and I want to say the tin one was flakier and crunchier than the baking paper ones but still very delicious. For $0.95/ea, that's such a steal! Cheese tarts - 4.5/5 it was very rich and creamy. There was some minor graininess to it, but nothing horrible. There was a hint of lemon which added lightness and acidity to the tart. This one was $1.75/ea Coconut tart - 3/5 Overall I thought there should've been something to compliment the coconut, but it was a bit overwhelming to me. Texture is fine, but I feel it should have another flavor to balance the entire tart. I do want to come back and try the other pastries and what they have to offer. Everything there looked divine and so cute! My total for everything was under $30 and well worth for a small party or potluck you may be attending.

    I came here because I saw the egg tart banner outside on Main Street. We ordered the coconut tart…read more$1.75, Portuguese egg tart $0.99 and the cheese tart $1.75. The pastry was flakey on all of them. The cheese tart was not so memorable, so I'd stick to the coconut and egg tarts. Come here for an affordable sweet treat. The guy before me bought 24 egg tarts. Luckily, they had some ready in the kitchen so I didn't have to wait long for my small order. Parking is on the street or a short walk to the city parking lot.
