Simple quiet place to have a snack and cup of deliciousness. Friendly owner described the flavors of taiyaki We chose 2 of each they're all great but my favorite will always be the red bean. We also tried a few different teas. This place is so relaxing. read more

Went in to try the Red Bean bingsoo. The owner said that the 6oz small one $6 is perfect for one. I've never tasted it before and it was so good. It's hard to describe it deliciousness and freshness. The ice in it is like fresh snowflakes Ambiance is relaxed, clean and service is friendly. read more

Awesome stop for a treat! I'd never had bing soo before and I am now sad it is so hard to come by. Order at the kiosk and grab a seat at one of many tables in the spacious interior. Orders were a little slow to come out but were clearly fresh and made to order. Our taro bingsoo was delicious. The texture is so light and lovely and it was the perfect amount of sweetness and taro flavor. The tayaki was also delightful. Typical prices for a specialty dessert shop but well worth it here! read more

So so happy this is here in slo!! Such great lattes and Korean treats. Let's try to keep this a best kept secret lol! The mango Bingsoo was delightful. I can't wait to try the rest!! The hot taiyaki was such a great balance (red bean one ofc) to the cold treat. The Sakura latte I had was perfect as well, I had always wanted to try one and did not disappoint! Let's support such a great business who's owners pour their hearts into our special needs community. I love how this cafe is open late, definitely much needed after a long day at work and I can't wait to take more of my friends and family to this wonderful place. Such great service and friendly staff! ^-^ read more

Touch By Angels Cafe - Mango Bing Soo and Pear Tea - Cafes Near Me - San Luis Obispo, California

Korean dessert in SLO is a treasure indeed. Too bad we found this place at our youngest kid's graduation day, meaning less reason for us to visit this area. Ordered Strawberry Bingsoo and Mango Bingsoo. Both were great, snow was light and fluffy, with a good ratio to fruits and cream. Ordered Taiyaki with sweet red bean and walnut, the dough was a bit chewy which paired well with the nuts and bean paste. All desserts were lightly sweetened, perfect for the Asian palette. read more

After hearing about a new Korean dessert spot in the area my friends and I were eager to try out Touch by Angles Cafe. Located in the small shopping center near Smart & Final, there is plenty of parking available. Although the outside of the cafe looks very simple, the inside has a very inviting modern theme that is well decorated. The workers were very kind and welcoming. We ordered their small mango bingsoo and chocolate bingsoo, along with some custard and chocolate taiyaki. We received the order pretty quickly and were pretty happy with all of it. The mango bingsoo was very refreshing and not too sweet, and what was especially nice is that they layer the toppings throughout the desert, instead of only at the top which I really liked. The taiyaki was fine, but I would likely stick with the chocolate or try the red bean, as the custard one tasted a bit bland. Overall Touch by Angles Cafe is a great addition to the desert scene in SLO, and something we will definitely return to soon! read more

I think this place is slapped on! Went by on Sunday around 3pm and there wasn't really any people. We entered and easily ordered on a kiosk. We got the mango bing soo and two Taiyaki, one chocolate, one custard. The mango Korean shaved ice was heaven. It simply melted in your mouth and had a great soft mango flavor and the mango was sweet and ripe on top. I got extra condensed milk which I received on the side but it wasn't really necessary. We weren't as big of a a fan of the Taiyakis. The custard one had a better flavor but overall the waffle tasted somewhat raw with an unfamiliar taste. Would not buy again but will be back to try more flavors of the bing soo! read more

Super excited to find out that SLO now has bingsoo! There are days when I crave bingsoo and now that SLO has one, my boyfriend doesn't have to suffer with my cravings. We got the salura latte and the small mango bingsoo. The mango was sweet and the ice was so so soft it was lovely. It's so different from American shaved ice because it doesn't give you any brain freeze! The Sakura latte was lacking in flavor which was disappointing but it did look cute. read more

Nice place, good desserts! The Bingsoo was fluffy, creating a delightful texture. We tried the taro and red bean ones. The red bean delivered a creamy and distinct taste, while the taro flavor offered a sweet and satisfying flavor profile. The service was excellent, with attentive staff. The ambiance of the place was inviting, with cozy seating and a charming atmosphere that complemented the indulgent desserts perfectly. I would recommend to try to anyone seeking Korean desserts! read more

Crave something refreshing and sweet? Try bingsoo, Korean shaved ice. This cute shop is clean, inviting, spacious, and gives you the option of ordering on a touchscreen or to a staff person at the counter. We ordered the chocolate and coffee flavors. We loved how the finely shaved ice melted the instant you taste it, so smooth, cold, and scrumptious. We also tried the taiyaki which was fresh and chocolatey. read more

Came by for bingsoo. Decided on their taro version. Dessert came out timely and was visually pleasing. Taro version was very good but I'd probably give the lean to their mango version I had before. I wish they had a version that adds a scoop of ice cream like an Ube flavor. Regular size is more of a 2+ person dessert. I was by myself and it was a bit too much dessert for me. read more

My coworkers and I went to Touch by Angels Cafe after work for some dessert. It was a cute little cafe, very bright, and relaxing. I had a mango bingsu and custard taiyaki. The bingsu was delicious! The taiyaki did not have the traditional bean paste option so I was a little disappointed. They were made to order and was scorching hot. Literally burned my esophagus. The orders took a little long but that's pretty normal when places are new. I would definitely go back again. read more

One of my new favorite places to get a sweet treat, I love how they offer such a unique dessert in the SLO area. I got the chocolate taiyaki and it was much lighter and smoother than regular chocolate. The service time is long but it allows the taiyaki to get crispy so I think it's worth it. Bingsoo was delicious and refreshing. The prices are great and it's very nice and clean inside. There are outlets so it's the perfect place to study. The only downside is that they are still new so a bit disorganized. My friend is allergic to nuts and they couldn't remember which taiyaki plate was red bean (with nuts) and which one was chocolate.. this is a pretty major error and can be really dangerous when allergies are involved read more

This is the ONLY place that I've found dairy-free bingsu! You get to choose between almond or soy milk as the base and either taro, red bean, or mango for your toppings. The base isn't too sweet so it balances the toppings out. I chose the regular size, but was able to share it with no problems. Other than the bingsu, the decor and overall aesthetic was cute. There were so many tea varieties that I didn't even know about until this store. My quince balloon tea had a mellow roasted flavor. read more

BINGSU IN SLO AHHH! i am so happy that there is a bingsu (and taiyaki) place in this part of california! its so creamy, literally feels like freshly fallen snow but is mildly sweet with a gentle milky flavor. i picked red bean bingsu because i feel like that's a flavor i don't really encounter in slo. its pilled high with red bean, mochi, slivered almonds and red bean in the bottom! the taiyaki was good, i had a chocolate one and cream filled one. they were all fresh off the mold and where steamy hot, perfect to eat with my bingsu. this place also does bingsu to go so i wasn't able to enjoy the cafe itself, but the inside was very bright and had gentle music playing. i imagine this would be a popular spot for studying or hanging out with big groups. very happy to have this place a part of slo! read more

Atmosphere Angel has an icy wonderland feel with white walls and whimsical furniture, creating a cozy, wintery study café vibe. It's a cute spot, perfect for the SLO community. Food The bingsu here is delightful, though the portions are smaller and pricier than expected. The mango bingsu stands out with its sour tang balanced by the sweetness of condensed milk. The strawberry bingsu is also a great choice, offering a soft, fresh sweetness. The taiyakis were just okay--some lacked filling, which was a bit disappointing. Service The staff is super nice, mostly made up of college students, adding to the friendly and welcoming atmosphere. Overall Angel is a charming spot in SLO to enjoy a rare treat like bingsu, despite the smaller portions and higher prices. It's a great addition to the community, especially for those looking for a unique dessert experience. read more

In town for the weekend with my family and as an Asian family, we had to get some Asian desserts! The staff were super friendly and the desserts and drinks were great overall! We tried the mango bingsoo, custard taiyaki, red bean taiyaki, dalgona iced coffee and butterfly pea tea latte. The least favorite was the butterfly pea tea latte. Honestly not sure what it was supposed to taste like but it was okay, kind of tasted just like a warm sweet milk. Everything else was great and what I expected from each item! We also liked the overall vibes of the place. My cousin and I were saying if we lived in the area we would definitely study or do work here. read more

Was in the mood for a dessert after eating a happy hour burger and pizza nearby. Ordered a mango bingsoo which had an ample amount of mango and perfectly fluffy shave ice. It was tasty-though a little overly sweet for our Asian tastes. However, I presume for a bingsoo in the middle of SLO, the options are slim-so this is a solid option for a sweet dessert/snack. read more

Cute little dessert place with free parking. The custard tayaki is amazing. Light n crisp. We enjoyed the strawberry bing soo more than the mango. The mango had slight artificial taste for us. Gave this place a 4 star because of the coffee. 3 of us ordered coffee drinks and none of us liked it. Coffee was weak and had a slightly odd taste. There was a small shelf with cute little cups and some Korean snacks. Great place for cuties animal tea/coffee cup collectors read more

What a great spot! We used to love getting shaved ice with condensed milk and fruit down in LA and were so excited to see this place go in locally.

Beautiful place in small town foods was delicious and dessert was wonderful would definitely come back when I'm in the area

I was drawn in by a social media post highlighting this cafe and in particular the Bing Soo they offer. I knew I had to try it. I have to say the one I ordered came out looking identical to the one from the social media post, which is to say, "picture perfect"... and delicious! It was so fluffy and a very unique treat. We also decided to add the Croffle on a whim and that did NOT disappoint. I think it might have been my favorite part. I'm assuming it is sort of a cross between a croissant and a waffle? Whatever it was it was fantastic. You should def try this place. read more

Such a cute lovely place for coffee and dessert, one of the only bingsoo places I know in Central California. Love the staff and the Korean desserts are super authentic. I'm happy they have two different sizes of Bingsoo, you don't see that in a whole lot of places and that's really helpful when it's just you solo and you don't feel like you have to eat a massive bingsoo just because you've got a hankering for it. One of my two dessert places in SLO, and it rivals McConnell's! read more

Never thought I'd see patbingsoo in SLO but I am so happy to be wrong :) We shared one regular red bean patbingsoo for two, which we found to be a good portion size after a light lunch. I prefer desserts that are "not too sweet" and this hit the spot, allowing the light flavors of the cream and the soybean powder to come through. The texture of the shaved ice was nice as well. I will be coming back and I hope that they are able to expand the menu in the future to more Korean treats. A few other patrons were talking about how excited they were to have a solid cafe in this part of town. I imagine they could be a hit at Farmer's Market in the summer, too. read more
