雜果西米露 Mixed Fruit Delight mango mochi coconut mango roll
Catherine Z.

LOVE this place! First time checking out this location (I grew up visiting the one in Rowland heights). This place had a decent amount of dessert options left on a Friday evening. We LOVED the fresh mango mochi, which had a huge mango piece in it, yummy custard wrapped in mochi. We loved yikoyiko but this place clearly beats yikoyiko in our view. The mixed fruit dessert was also deliciously creamy and refreshing

Sweet Black Sesame $5.95
Vivian C.

I usually like Phoenix Dessert, and this San Diego location was amazing. I love their black sticky rice with young coconut it's so fragrant, soft, and perfectly sweet , $5.95 was very affordable . The black sesame dessert was a bit firmer than I prefer, but still was delicious. This is such a cool spot with so many food and dessert options. They have durian, mango, passionfruit, taro , lots of fun ingredients, and it's honestly enjoyable just browsing through everything. There are a few small tables inside and outside if you want to sit and enjoy your treats, but it's also a great place to grab something to go. Customer service here is friendly and attentive . Parking was easy to find, so getting in and out was no hassle at all.

Phoenix doesn't just sell desserts, they also have hot foods, cold dish, street food, tea and drinks. Their desserts are in the display window, some milk teas are bottled, some are made on the spot. We ordered: Fresh durian delight drink Braised pork belly Durian rolls Custard platter Bottled milk tea Bottled soy milk No complaints on the food or desserts. Hot foods remind me of home cooking. The durian rolls had actual durian seeds coated with the mochi sheet on the outside. The soy milk was too sweet for me. They change their hours every season so be sure to check before you go.

Mango Lovers Dessert
Mai H.

Stopped by after dinner to satisfy my sweet tooth and decided to try their Mango Lovers Dessert. It was good- light, refreshing, and packed with mango flavor. The portion is definitely shareable, it would've been way too much for me to finish on my own. I've had their durian rolls a few times prior, but was in the mood for something more refreshing and the mango lovers delivered. I did have an uncomfortable moment before going in- there was some inappropriate activity happening outside the shop, which made me feel a bit sketchy and unsure at first. When we went inside, the place was completely empty. But not long after, people started trickling in. Overall, I'd recommend stopping by if you're craving something fruity and refreshing. I may come back to try some of their other desserts next time.. like the Durian Lovers Dessert.

(3pc) Black Sticky Rice & Red Bean Custard
Christine B.

Upon walking in we were immediately greeted kindly by the workers. Near the entrance, there is the fridge displaying all the tasty looking desserts they have. We got a few to try, but thought they were a bit lacking in flavor. * Mixed Durian Rolls - 8.6/10 (i love durian & i was excited to see that there was a durian dessert. i like how the durian is enclosed with mochi on the outside. however, the durian was not as sweet & fresh as i was expecting. i wish there was a custard/cream inside to add some sweetness to the mochi) * Fresh Mango Pudding - 7/10 (nothing special, just a mango pudding with mango chunks inside. although i wish it had more of a creamy consistency, than a grainy one) * Green Tea & Red Bean Custard - 5/10 (i don't really taste much of green tea. it's pretty much jello with chunks of red bean inside) * Black Sticky Rice & Red Bean Custard - 6/10 (this one was sweeter than the green tea one which i liked. however, i still can't put my finger on the flavor. it's also just a jello with red bean inside. i don't think i am a fan of these custard desserts)

Durian Mochi
Joyce Z.

Normally I stop by Extraordinary Desserts when I'm down in San Diego but needing to cut down on sugar, I had to choose my treat for the most recent trip. Since it's currently only available in So Cal, my wanting to try Phoenix's durian mochi rolls for almost 2 years now, won out especially since they have opened up a San Diego location. I was so excited to discover I could get it in SD that I immediately hopped out of the pool, showered, and hightailed it over there to be Customer #1 that day. Definitely a winner that I literally went back for another pack to share. Having it filled with Musang Durian means I can have two right?

There are more Phoenix Desserts in the LA areas that I've been to before. Very happy to find this one in San Diego. It's a small shop with limited items and a few small tables inside. I always like their mochi and their custard with different flavors. They're all delicious especially if you have a sweet tooth. There are a few HK street food and a few cold dishes available. The cold tofu platter, the chicken wings, and samosa are all good. The curry fish ball is a bit disappointing and wish they use the white fish balls that are not fried. Be aware they only get shipments from LA on certain days, so they can run out of certain popular desserts. It would be nice if they open more locations.

We ordered through Uber Eats! The delivery and service were fast! The quality of the desserts were very sumptuous! Not too sweet for me, which is good I like the presentation of how everything looks, and that the desserts were very easy to divide amongst the three of us. 10/10 recommend!

Durian rolls, Thai mango sticky rice, Mango mochi
Julie H.

Finally got to stop in and try a few of their desserts. I bought durian rolls and the mango mochi. My sister got the Thai mango sticky rice. My daughter gobbled down 2 mango mochis real quick. She's already talking about how we need to go back more next time. If you can stand the smell of durian and love to eat it then you will also enjoy the durian rolls. My sister said the mango sticky rice is also good but would be better with a little more coconut cream on top. Perfect sweetness level for all 3. Will come back to try other desserts, drinks and Chinese entrees/street foods next time.

Mango Pomelo Drink
George P.

I've been here a few times now and the service is always so wonderful. Cool little spot with seating inside and an array of desserts to choose from. Lately been on a mango pomelo sago search, so tried theirs and it was so amazing. Coconut based, delicious flavors and lots of fruit in the drink. One of my favorites of the summer. Thanks so much!

Durian roll (top) and assorted mochi (bottom)
Jasmine C.

I've had Phoenix in OC. Glad they have a location in sd. They are known for their durian and mango rolls. The outside is mochi. It's chewy and the filling inside is a good amount of durian. The dessert is light and not too sweet. Also tried the assorted mochi. Filled with mango, red bean, taro and sesame. I didn't like it as much. It wasn't chewy. They have a lot of other desserts and drinks too.

Mango pomelo delight
Dung N.

I've had these desserts before in Orange County, so it's nice to have one in SD now. They are known for their durian desserts, but I like their mango rolls better. To be honest, I think durian stinks LOL. I also tried their mango pomelo delight, but it was too sweet for me. I'll stick to their desserts instead!

Durian mochi roll, Mango roll, Silken tofu with Ginger Syrup
Cynthia P.

I was so excited to hear that there was a phoenix dessert in San Diego! We got the durian mochi rolls, mango rolls, and silken tofu with ginger syrup! It was delicious! The durian mochi is just as good as I remembered it to be! Mango as well! Definitely try this place out if you haven't yet!

Aloha gang! Thought it was time to revisit Pan Asia Buffet. I was coming back from a Sunday…read moreafternoon at the casino in Temecula and was in the mood for an all you can eat buffet. When I arrived, the restaurant was packed. I had to check in and take a number, but they managed to seat us in under 10 minutes. If you're not into crowds, I would definitely avoid Sunday's. My usual visits are during the weekdays when they open first thing for lunch. You get first pick of the buffet offerings and it's much more enjoyable without the crowd. My faves are the Chow Mein, Teriyaki Beef, Fried Rice and Honey Walnut Shrimp. So....if you have a craving for AYCE buffet, check it out!

"I hate to do it, just as bad as you hate to see it done, now calm your boys" As a a non-seafoodie, I entered with trepidation...as soon as I stepped in, the stench of seafood hit me in the face, oh no...I had a strong inkling of what was to come. Disclaimer: Had I not been part of a large gathering that was coming here, I doubt I ever would have come to this buffet. Pros: They had the World Cup playing on a "2017 New" 36ish inch TV with the tags still on it The food was mostly hot The cream cheese wontons were delicious, creamy, and crispy Cons: I tried like 11 items, and only the cream cheese wontons were hittin'. Out of the 11 items I tried, only 3-4 items were passable as decent The food was salty The black pepper chicken tasted like fish The food ended up giving my bubble guts the bubble guts-SHEESH! While there were loads of offerings, which I appreciate, the organization of said offerings were a bit strange. The hibachi was set-up going left to right, while the food stations on either side of it were going right to left, creating this crazy clash of people heading in opposite directions. It just wasn't for me.

The bok choy was a great side, it is cooked just right with a subtle hint of garlic that never overpowered the dish. For mains, the braised pork belly bowl stood out -- a decent portion, cooked perfectly, with a sauce that was sweet and packed with flavor. The bulgogi chow mein was a good pick as well, with great seasoning and tender, soft bulgogi beef in every bite. The spicy ramen is just the right amount of heat with a rich, flavorful broth and a generous portion size. To drink, I had the lychee lemonade -- a little sweeter than I expected, but still really good. I sipped it slowly to enjoy it, and finding lychee bits at the bottom was such a nice surprise. Yum! Despite the restaurant being short-staffed, our food came out quickly and our order was accurate. Our waiter was friendly too, which made the whole experience even better. The restaurant is clean, well lit and has a casual atmosphere. Worth a try.

At first, she said the order only could be done on 1 bill. And then later she compromised with 2 bills, 5 people per table. That was nice of her! I just had 2 coffees before entering so I decided to skip ordering Thai tea. But they had a large drink menu, of fruit teas and more. My friend had the lychee tea which was very large and looked super refreshing! They also came by often to top off our waters which was nice. To eat, I ordered the $16.99~, Cashew Chicken Stir Fry with White Rice. It came with onion, green onion, carrots, zucchini, bell pepper, and cashews. The carrots were beautifully cut, but a little too crunchy for me to properly enjoy in the stir fry. Everything else was delicious! I think this could definitely be shared between 2-3 people. It was a lot for me, even after a large hike. The sauce was flavorful and not overly salty. I didn't ask for any spice level, but I think I'd choose mild or medium next time. My friends ordered-- - $12.99, Dirty Fried Chicken: This had a blitz coating of lime, mint, and spices. And it was decorated with thinly sliced green onions with a side of sweet chili sauce. The chicken was hot and plump, not dry, and very much mouthwatering! Would recommend. - $14.99, Thai Grilled Chicken Salad: Grilled Chicken Breast on a bed of mixed green salad, carrots, and cucumbers with peanut dressing. It reminded me a little of chicken satay~ it smelled and looked incredible. I think I might order it next time, when I want something light and fulfilling after a hike. - $11.99, Cream Cheese Avocado Wontons (6PC): These came out piping hot and when you took a bite they were oozing. It was very creamy and when you dip into the plum sauce it's a delectable bite. A nice appetizer to share with the table. - $16.99-$19.99 (depends on what protein you get), Pad Thai: This proportion was manageable for one person. The restaurant used thin rice noodles, but it didn't clump excessively compared to other restaurants. The prices are what you'd typically see at a Pan-Asian restaurant, a few dollars more than what you'd want to spend. But these kinds of restaurants, in my opinion, are for enjoying with others. So, if you're sharing food and all that-- the price is worth it (esp with the quantity that is given). Next time, I would probably order one of their noodle dishes rather than rice. Oodles by the Noodbar has such a large and diverse menu so I would highly recommend coming in to try them out.

I don't usually leave reviews, but I wanted to share my experience dining here with my family…read more The evening started off great. The staff was friendly when we arrived, we were seated quickly, received our drinks promptly, and our food came out fast. The music was enjoyable, the ambiance was nice, and the restaurant had a modern, welcoming feel. Most importantly, the food was excellent. Everything we ordered was delicious, and my kids couldn't stop talking about the crispy pork belly. Honestly, the food itself was 5-star quality. The issue was what happened as the restaurant approached closing time. About 10-15 minutes after we started eating, a staff member brought our check and asked us to pay even though we were still waiting on two mango sticky rice desserts that had not yet been served. I politely explained that we hadn't received all of our food yet, so it didn't make sense to close out the bill. The desserts were brought out shortly afterward. A different employee then returned and again asked us to close out the check, assuring us that we could continue eating while they finished closing. Although I was hesitant, I paid and explained that I would leave a cash tip after we finished since we were still dining. Unfortunately, from that point on, the service noticeably changed. No one checked on our table, our water glasses were never refilled, and the staff seemed focused on cleaning around us. The booth behind us was being cleaned very loudly while we were still trying to enjoy our meal. It made us feel rushed and unwelcome, and honestly took away from an otherwise great dinner. When I asked for containers for our leftovers, the interaction felt cold and standoffish compared to the friendly service we received earlier in the evening. My suggestion would be that if the restaurant is close to closing and doesn't want guests dining in, they should clearly communicate that and switch to takeout only. The food was genuinely delicious, and I would come back again--but not near closing time. Great food, disappointing end to the evening.

Here for work from NJ and bookmarked this place for the plethora of vegetarian options…read more A friend and I were the first ones in and after deciding on a few dishes to try, the friendly staff were more happy to answer questions. Firstly- the portions are huge! Salt and Pepper Tofu - Crispy chunks of tofu and broccoli with lots of flavor. This is a dry dish so the tofu stays crispy all through. Mongolian Crispy "Beef" - Amazing umami flavor. I got halfway through eating top to bottom before I realized the crispy short rice noodles were at the bottom! Advice: Mix it as you get it before eating. As we were finishing what we could of the meal we could smell fresh baked goods. I went to get a box for leftovers from the back counter and saw trays of fresh baked cookies on the counter. Chocolate Chip, Oatmeal Raisin, and the one that had my attention- Funfetti with an Oreo in the middle! When I asked if they had any ready up front they insisted I have one of the hot fresh ones out the oven! No pic of the cookie, it didn't make it far! Wish we had places like this near me in NJ.

The crunchy waffle cone crumbles on top added a nice texture and made each bite even better. We also wanted to try the mango mochi balls, but we got there later in the evening and someone bought the last order right before we checked out. Talk about bad timing! We ended up trying the matcha mochi balls instead. I'm personally not a matcha fan, so they weren't for me, but if you enjoy matcha, you'll probably like them. My sister was more than happy to finish them for me. Next time I'll definitely come earlier so I can snag the mango mochi before someone else beats me to it! Overall, Yuki Yuki is a cute dessert spot with light, delicious cakes that are the perfect ending to a great meal. I'll definitely be back.
