    This Meatfresh establishment is hidden within the grocery store entrance. The quickest and easiest method to order is through the self-serve kiosk in the far corner near the seating. This is efficient, but terrible placement as the self serve line get's backed up, blocking the entrance to the restroom and leaves people standing over guests who are sitting. The dessert was good here, as I ordered the red bean hot soup, but the service really lacked. From ordering and receiving my receipt to actually receiving the dessert, it took about 25 minutes. Pretty long, considering it wasn't very crowded. The staff was prioritizing to-go and online orders, which led them to have a ton of dessert sitting with no one picking them up, and all the dine-in guests waiting.

    I have tried the Mochi & Caramel Pudding Combo, and it was absolutely delicious! The mochi was soft and chewy, and the caramel pudding was rich, creamy, and perfectly sweet. I will definitely order it again.

    Such sweet staff helping us out + indoor food court vibe. Took about 15 min for the dessert to come out. Got the brown sugar boba shaved ice that came with warm boba pearls, caramel pudding, vanilla ice cream, and red beans. Added an extra side of almond pudding too. Pretty much tastes like an icier version of a brown sugar milk tea drink itself. Was $14.95 for the large - $1 more than the medium. Very doable to share amongst 4 people. Always love going to different Meet Fresh locations across the US! Right next door to Mama Lu as well - makes it easy to go from savory to sweet.

    Unfortunately, I came here just to try one thing only, but I guess some of their desserts on the menu that contains fruits like the mango/strawberry is only seasonal. They did not serve it, so I had to try other items. Wish I had known about this seasonal changes prior to driving here. This shop is located inside the super market, plenty of parking and tables. Maybe I will come back, the quality of the dessert was good. I had the Pudding & Q Mochi Shaved ice and wow it was sweet, in a good way, not overly. Tasted fresh, the chocolate waffle had a nice crunch to it mixed with ice cream.

    This place is located in a supermarket next to a dim sum spot. The service is quick and the ambiance is quick service. I was disappointed that they don't update their menu, I came here on the pre-notion that the mango and the mango berry shaved ice is there. It even shows on the menu. However, it is only seasonal. The egg waffle is decent. Pretty basic order. I ordered it with ice cream and they didn't out the ice cream in it. I thought they did. Regardless it was made fresh and fluffy. A but chewy. 3.8/5 The boba is generic brown sugar milk tea. 3/5. The shaved ice was milk pudding I think? Surprisingly it was good and they hooked it up with alot of toppings. I recommend this one. 5/5.

    Our Mangoberry Shaved Ice was tasty and refreshing (I especially enjoyed the mango side); it was attractive in presentation, served in an deep square bowl; I love the large stainless steel spoons (unlike flimsy little plastic spoons that are provided at some other shaved ice locations I've visited)! Our thoughts are that the ice was less finely shaved than another shaved ice we've had. One of the negative reviews for Irvine's location was that order numbers weren't called out; while this is my 1st experience at Meet Fresh, I appreciated that order numbers were not only called out by automated announcements, but also one's order number is visually displayed in lights by their pick-up counter; it is hard to hear with neighboring Mama Lu's radio station playing loudly; I observed 2 tables' numbers repeatedly called out, but the guests, seated in the small seating area didn't hear; I -- on the other hand -- was paying attention! Interesting location, sharing space with a grocery store on one side and Mama Lu's Dumpling on the other. I'm glad that we were able to comfortably enjoy our dessert at a table. Eager to experience more items off their menu! I appreciated that the staff was friendly, patient, and helpful -- making my 1st visit an enjoyable one.

    Quite disappointed because the traditional toppings for the tofu pudding are limited... there's really only red beans, taro balls, taro and boba. Peanut is not available at this location. They used to have mung beans and barley at the Irvine branch but no longer available. I asked for hot tofu pudding and it came out lukewarm. The egg waffle is just terrible. For $7.25, it has absolutely no sweetness. It's the right texture but no flavor. Maybe the shaved ice or drinks are better. Tofu pudding and egg waffle were disappointing.

    Good dessert place right next to Mama Lu's. We had the hot red bean mochi soup (?), q mochi and almond, and the mango shave iced. Per my sister, the red bean mochi soup was really bland. It's supposed to be a dessert but they call it soup, so we wonder if it's really a soup that's why it's not sweet? I like the almond with red beans and q mochi. The mochi had the perfect chewy texture. Almond jello was good. My brother-in-law liked his humongous mango milk shaved ice dessert and we were surprised how quickly he ate his while we were eating dinner (he already had dinner somewhere else when they came). We also saw many people from other tables ordering that same dessert. Meet Fresh's popular menu item. Service was very slow. Took a while to get our order.

    Located in the market next to Mama Lus. There is a small sitting area inside and I think you can sit in the mama lu area too. Came on a sunday night before they closed an got my fave desert here with additional rice balls ofc. I saw later they had a kiosk you can order from but we ordered at the front and service was super quick and great. Egg waffles came out nice and hot and tasted amazing. We ate everything!!

    Always delicious, as expected! No complaints, large serving portions. Great to share!! You order at the kiosk and you pick it up at the counter.

    Wow, really fresh and even better than other meet freshs that we've been to. Nabeela had great customer service and a very welcoming smile. You can tell she is a hard worker. We will be back for the great desert and amazing service

    Mm we always love Meet Fresh. We ordered a large shaved ice and two drinks. Whole family loved it. They are generous with their portions. The mochi is nice and chewy. They are generous with their samples. They had a sample of wintermelon tea which sold us to order one. I had the passionfruit mango tea which was very refreshing. We will come back.

    Omg! I've been to this location before and it was not that bad. BUT this time it was pretty bad. We came here on a Friday night and wanted to order this special series which wasn't even on the kiosk. So we had to order in line (even though they tell you to order on the kiosk - which is placed inconveniently at the door, to your right) We ended up waiting for 26 minutes for our dessert to come out. I heard another customer saying he's been waiting 40 minutes for his drink. It was apparent that everyone was upset! I've never had to wait that long. When it came out, as the server was raising the tray, the ice cream fell over and tipped. I'm not sure they even changed the ice cream or used the same one I think today was just an off day, but it was for sure a terrible experience!

Had to opportunity to check this place out prior to our trek back to NorCal, immediately following AYCE shabu, and I'm glad I didn't pass up on the opportunity, given that my stomach has seemingly reached full capacity. As we entered, we were gifted the pleasure of a warm greeting by a staff member who then sat us down and gave us first-timers a brief overview of the menu, his recommendations, and a brief history lesson about the origin of Fluffy Fluffy. After some waiting, we were presented with three aesthetically pleasing plates of these highly hyped fluffy pancakes. I then grabbed a knife and fork to cut into the stack of pancakes and was astonished by how... for a lack of better word, fluffy they were. Upon first bite, I expected a rush of sugar to register after a few seconds of chewing. However, that sensation never came. The pancakes were just the right level of sweet. A few minutes later, the plates were completely cleared and I was back to suffering from again reaching full capacity and thought to myself, "when will I ever learn?". All in all, great hospitality from staff, clean and upbeat ambiance, and most importantly excellent dessert items that were easy to consume without the feeling of developing instantaneous diabetes after finishing.

Usually parking here isn't too bad if you're staying for less than an hour and easy to walk over to the dessert shop. Baked Banhs is located in the 4th street food market, one of the first shops you'll see if you're coming from the parking lot. Note the hours before you come (for instance, they're closed on Sundays and Mondays). And note that they seem to usually sell out of certain items by the days end. We've tried a number of different items here now including four of their canelés and their basque cheesecake. The cheesecake was solid. But we really loved their canelés. They are soft/moist on the inside with a nice crunch. And the different flavors really come through. Our favorite is the black sesame - not only is there black sesame peppered on the top but also in the center with a nice black sesame cream. It's so good and delicious. Four canelés cost $16 and thought they were well worth the price. Again, it's so sad to hear that Baked Banhs is closing soon so if you're a fan of canelés or other desserts, recommended to come sooner than later to try this out! We really hope they reopen again elsewhere or do a lot of pop-ups soon.
