Chk chk boom Taiwanese popcorn chicken. So good!!!

Rhealynn N.

They have such a large menu of delicious looking drinks so it was so hard to pick! But the owner was such a sweet lady and so helpful. It's tough to find a boba shop that serves Taiwanese popcorn chicken with actual basil especially down South so if you have a craving you don't have to drive all the way up to Convoy! I'll be sure to come back to try out the other drinks!

Everyone working is so sweet!! They always know my order when I go!! A side from that the food/drinks are incredibly amazing I really like all of them!

Heard about this boba spot that does kpop inspired drinks and events and have been wanting to try it! They have an extensive variety of kpop inspired drinks and lots of events for different groups' comebacks and anniversaries. You get your choice of cup sleeve and banner with every drink. The lady at the cashier was sweet and gave us some freebies! I had the Fall In Love Again (raspberry lemon cream smoothie with strawberry jelly) which was pretty good! My sister had the Romance: Untold (mango vanilla milk tea with strawberry jelly) but it was kinda light in flavor. Both drinks were not too sweet. They were on the pricier side but the cups are huge! I love that their drinks are kpop inspired and they have so many kpop events there, so cool!

Romance: Untold ($9.5) and Fall In Love Again ($9.5)

I've been wanting to try this place for a while and was in the area, very easy to find parking. Service was great and very friendly, and they gave us our choice of Kpop banner and cupsleeve with our purchase. The lady at the cashier was very kind and also gave us some extra freebies! I ordered the Romance: Untold (mango vanilla milk tea with strawberry jelly) and it was yummy but could use more flavor. I also enjoyed the Fall In Love Again (raspberry lemon cream smoothie with strawberry jelly) my sister ordered. They are a bit pricier but the size is big. I love how their drinks are kpop-inspired and would love to visit for more events!

A random stop in this shopping center off the freeway turned into a nice surprise. We felt so welcomed by the owners of this cute, well-maintained K-Pop themed, drink, and dessert shop! The charming and delightful woman greeted us right away and asked if we had any questions about the many offerings they had. There is so much to choose from! My company made their choices from the pictures posted on the windows. Freshly made Hong Kong egg waffle ice cream cups, with their choice of ice cream and chocolate or caramel drizzle on top, and for drinks, Fruit burst with rainbow popping boba. I couldn't decide at first, but she suggested some things, and I told her I wanted something not overly sweet. I went with the Coco Nuts about You drink. Everything was made to order and tasted sublime. We will be back to try more from the menu, like the Jiggly Cake. Thank you, U Dessert Eats!

This boba shop gives off college dorm room KPOP lover vibes! The menu was a bit overwhelming; you have to look at 3-4 different screens to see what they have, so it took us awhile to order.. Drinks are a tad pricy, and we waited over 30 min for our order -- we felt bad as there was only one employee and of course everyone showed up at once. Drinks were pretty tasty, but the ice cream waffle was my favorite part of the order! It was light and fluffy, plenty of ice cream options, and big enough to share between 2-3 people.

This place is so gooooooood I would def come back Customer service was amazing and check out process was fast They have a huge selection as well Yummy

Cute place, inside seating. Friendly service. The owner was kind and explained waffle to us. Very helpful and informative. So many variety of drinks and desserts to choose. I ordered the Klaxon- Mango cream smoothie with condensed milk. And my Son ordered the cookies n cream with chocolate drizzle waffle. My smoothie was a good portion size. The mango flavor was so intense. I am a mango lover and it was definitely delicious. A refreshing drink for sure. My Son had the waffle dessert and he said he loves it very much. The waffle compliments with the ice cream. You have a choice of different flavor ice cream to choose. Or you can order the waffle alone. You will not be disappointed

Andrea D.

Seen this place on Instagram and I'm so glad we were finally able to go! The place was pretty empty so we were able to place and receive our order pretty quickly. We ordered two drinks and a HK Egg Waffle with ice cream and they were all tasty. Our drinks were Lalalalala and Back For More and they were delicious! I would definitely try it again the next time I'm in the area.

Everything is so yummy! Everything was clean. The staff is very friendly and gave suggestions on most popular flavors.

Usually not too big of a boba fan but there milk tea boba is sooooo good. There boba is just too good. I'll def be back

It feels like you're at a college dorm room blasting K pop music with BTS all over the walls. They have so many choices on the menu that I didn't know what to get. They had March favorites, April favorites, signature drinks, top 10 drinks, HK waffles. I normally get some sort of milk tea but decided to do fruit tea this time. I got winter melon ($6.89) from the top 10 menu. It came with coco pineapple jelly bits already. It's flavored winter melon so it had that syrupy earthy herbal taste. My BF got Happiness which was mango kiwi green tea with coco pineapple bits. This one had a mixture of sweet and sour. They sell desserts like HK puffle waffle with ice cream and jiggly cake ($12.99). I didn't want to get the cake but my BF wanted to support a small business so we ended up getting the cake which I regret. It wasn't good. Yes it was jiggle when you shake the box but it was a dry knock off version of Sara Lee pound cake. Parking in this plaza was easy. Tapioca Express is a few doors down. For the price, I would say it's worth it because you can get the same mixture at another place in Clairemont for $8-11. I find this place just average and feel like we need to give it another try because I just don't see the equivalent of 5 star review that others wrote.

Tova L.

Phenomenal dessert spot. I personally love the Chamber 5, which is a blended taro and coconut ice drink. It is so tasty, and a huge portion! My friend ordered the Hong Kong waffle, which looked great and was also a large portion. Very cute indoor seating and quick service.

im glad that my Son remembered where this place at , coz their drink here were good

Walking in it's a nice K-POP energy, they have a lot of drinks but the downside is coming in all I could smell is acetone because it's actually next to a nail shop. The lady who served us was very patient and nice . We tried her recommended drinks and a waffle .. for the price of everything I didn't feel like I got my money worth. The waffle was very thick and dense . Was looking for a crunch or airy texture maybe slight chewy but nope my daughter didn't even finish it so that's a little annoying . Big boba fans here and well the boba was okay for someone who's not into boba but I didn't like it kinda sucks cause I liked the lady so much but I wouldn't come back . Maybe we didn't come on a good day but it wasn't good but services was good. read more

Nicest lady who took my order. Never been here but I wish I found this place sooner! I got the strawberry daiquiri and mango mojito. She was fast making them. I was a little skeptical of "popping boba" but o my gosh, it's so cool! Very different. The flavors of the mango mojito is just amazing!! I did try the strawberry daiquiri (got for my bf) and super good!! Always happy to support small businesses especially when they're this good!! Definitely recommend! There's even a section to take some cute pics, kinda get a kpop feeling when you walk in. read more

I never expected to find a place like this in National City. It was a small little place tucked in a shopping center, next to a Tapioca Express. They had a large combination of drinks from milk teas to fruit teas to slushies. I got 50% milk tea, and it was still too sweet. Boba was disintegrating. The Fruit tea at 25% was perfect! GET THE JIGGLY CAKE!! It was moist. I would add strawberries and whipped cream on it next time. :) Also, no seating inside. There is a park across the street, might be a nice time to take a walk.

My friend and I came back to U Dessert Eats for another K-Pop cup sleeve event since we really enjoyed the previous BTS event last month. Something fun about this shop is that the menu is always changing (monthly specials plus event flavors) with tons of options (it's even a little overwhelming at first ) so I get to try something different each visit. Today I ordered "Ice Cream Chillin" (strawberry cookies and cream blended) and "Hobgoblin" (pistachio milk tea with charcoal). Overall, the drinks are yummy and prepared with care by the staff. The staff are also so friendly and helpful when making recommendations. The order and pickup process is very organized which provides a smooth and seamless experience. I look forward to the next cup sleeve event! read more

5 stars for the quality of the drink and the quality of the service! I ordered the Brown Sugar Milk Tea out of curiosity and asked the guy (I think the owner) if it would taste good if I added Butterfly tea on it. He said no with all honesty and I loved that he had my best interest. He went on to make my drink and he asked how sweet I wanted it and I regret saying "more than the regular" because it turned out to be super sweet. When asked how my drink was, I said next time i'll have it the regular sweetness, and he told me he'll add more tea to dilute it a little bit! What a great service. I felt really cared for. That's customer service right there. I super duper loved my drink, I craved for more and went back a second time the same day . My brother had the Wintermelon Milk Tea and that was soooo bomb too, I'll order it next. Also try their HongKong Egg Waffles! I got the plain one and it really paired up with my milk tea. Try this place out and you'll plant your flag here! read more

First time trying this new place. Craving desert so we did a last minute run. The place is still new so I don't expect them to have fast serves since there was only one guy making everything and everything was made fresh. I ordered the Hong Kong egg waffle with ice cream. I was sad when they only serve it was just one scoop, however I ordered an attentional scoop. The egg waffle was fabulous and the service was great. I'd recommend this place if you're craving a special desert read more

I wish I could leave a better review but this is going to be based on my experience today and I'll consider trying this place again in the future. I'm going to give 3 stars since 2/5 items i purchased were liked and because they gave good customer service. I ordered Banana ChaCha $6.00 - (This was for my daughter she said it tasted too sweet and wasn't a fan of how it tasted. She had about a few sips and poured it out. I normally don't like when my kids waste food but I happened to do the same with mine. Monkey see, monkey do.) Longan Honey Tapioca x 3 $2.25 - (Boba that was added to 3 drinks which we all didn't like too much. The boba was very soft and mushy.) Strawberry Smoothies $4.99 - (My niece said it was too sour/bitter and she also ended up passing her drink to her mom.) Cookie N Cream Smoothies $5.49 - (My daughter liked her drink. She said it tasted like the one from tapioca express so I'm glad she liked it.) Ko Ko Bop $6.00 - (This was my order. I didn't really get a chance to look at the menu because other people walked in and I didnt want to keep the line waiting especially since I already had a big order. I originally wanted a different drink but decided to try this instead. I'm not a big fan of coconut so I dont even know why I decided to try this drink. It has a very strong coconut taste to it. The drink was over blended so it just felt like I was drinking a milk tea. I ended up drinking a little bit and dumping it out. It also was too sugary.) HK Ice Cream Waffle $6.99 - (My sister loved her ice cream waffle! So i'm glad she enjoyed her item.) Rocky Road $0.00 Subtotal $31.72 tax 7.75% $2.46 Tip $5.00 Total $ 39.18 It's unfortunate they only have one size for the drinks because they were very big and we didn't even like it. I'll probably give this place a try in the future and probably look at the menu before going in to try and pick a flavor i'd probably enjoy. Other than that the woman who took our order was very nice and they made our order pretty quickly. read more

The waffle with ice cream is every bit as good as it looks in the photos! My son and I got cookies and cream and strawberry ice cream respectively and they both tasted amazing! The lady helping us was super friendly too! I would highly recommend trying it. The only downside was that there was no seating, so you can't eat there, you kind of need to take it to go. Not sure if that's a COVID thing or what but that's the only reason I didn't rate it higher. Other than the lack of seating it seems to be a great place to get dessert. read more

Extraordinary Desserts

Memorial Day 2026 commenced with the most amazing dessert I'd never imagine ordering. Before the…read moredessert, the gentleman that rang me up, and the lady packing the desserts (apologies for not getting names) provided exceptional service. My name was spelled properly, a short conversation reassured my dessert choice, and as I walked up to retrieve my dessert, the lady met me halfway with a smile (thank you for wrapping so it didn't fall over). The smallest of gestures and niceties are what make leaving the house worth it. GIANDUIA. This cake is nothing you can be prepared for, yet everything you need without setting expectations. The boysenberry was the perfect separation for the waves of chocolate and the subtle crunch of the hazelnut toffee type of layer on the very top. The chocolate mousse was the exact mouth feel needed to separate the rich layers of chocolate cake. I saw, I conquered, and I was yet again impressed by what Extraordinary Desserts so purposefully and gracefully offered. Thank you for healing a bit of my soul I didn't realize was waiting to be healed.

Much to my chagrin, my latest visit has now become my last. Excitedly, I brought my four-legged son to enjoy his first pup cup, but the service and portion sizes were fit for a hobbit at best. One would think that, in such dark times, one could still find even a glimpse of hope in an ice cream cone. I was proven wrong, and my outlook on the current state of affairs only dimmed further. I ate my ice cream in two bites. Twenty dollars for two cones, four bites total. I didn't even bother feeding my son the pup cup. He deserves better. The world deserves better. Bigger portions. Bigger smiles. Makes perfect sense, in my humble opinion. I suppose your employees do not agree.

My friends and I were just looking to get a coffee in Little Italy, but when we walked in and saw all the delicious treats we had to try something else as well. I ordered a latte and neglected to tell them it was for here so I was given a paper cup, but they give real cups if you ask. The latte was good, and my friend bought a kitchen sink type cookie with chocolate, coconut, and macadamia nuts. It was warm and gooey good! Another friend tried the gelato and said it was very good. There are a few tables inside and tables out in front outside. We sat outside and enjoyed the beautiful San Diego weather. The decor and tables definitely gives you an old school Italian neighborhood vibe with Italian markets right next door. If I am in the neighborhood again, I would definitely come back here to try the gelato and/or a piece of an excellent looking lemon pie bar I spotted.

If there is better gelato in San Diego, I have not tried it…read more They have more than gelato here but gelato is all we tried. It was later in the day so they were out of or running low on some flavors. Nevertheless, the two flavors we tried were incredibly rich and flavorful. A little goes a very long way. Parking is incredibly tough in Little Italy but it is worth it for gelato this good.

We will definitely be back!!

Came here for lunch on a Saturday mainly because my husband just really wanted some gelato…read moreafterwards Lunch-- 3 stars Gelato - 0 stars Service - 3 stars Price - 4 stars my husband got some sort of fettuccine alfredo with shrimp, I got a Italian sandwich, and my best friend got a woodfired margarita pizza. Pizza was good, but soggy in the middle. The pasta was good, no complaints there. The sandwich was very lacking in the meat department... It was basically a bread and arugula sandwich. Had very low expectations for the gelato to begin with seeing as the colors were extremely unnatural and the way it was heaped was a clear indication to me that it is not legitimate gelato and unfortunately, I was proven very right. I got the strawberry so that my toddler could have a few few bites and it was so unnatural and weird tasting that she didn't even want any... And if that doesn't say something! My husband got the coffee flavor and he literally took three bites and threw it away as well. I will say, though, on the food front, the prices are reasonable here all things considered, but maybe stick with pasta... based on everything As a whole though, you can likely get a much more legitimate Italian meal somewhere else in the area, but it will probably cost you more.

They have seating inside and a few spots on the sidewalk. They also make coffee/tea, etc to go as well. Their gelato freezer was broken but they normally have a small selection as well. Parking in Little Italy sucks - not their fault.

They have a great variety to choose from, whether you're into milk chocolate, dark chocolate, or even non dairy options.

Smooth, rich, and just the right size when you want something sweet without going overboard. I also had a dark chocolate truffle and that one was just as good. You can really taste the quality. Customer service was a highlight. The guy helping me was super personable, gave great suggestions for drinks, and was genuinely kind, which always makes the experience better.

I sampled chocolate from Peru, Madagascar, and Kenya, and they all had unique fruity characteristics. Because they're vegan, so they use oat milk for their chocolate instead of dairy. My wife and I also wanted some drinks while we were here. I had a hot chocolate. My wife had hers with espresso shots. Good espresso in pure chocolate will never not be good. They are family owned and they only add chocolate, sugar, and oat milk to make their bars. Overall, this was a fun place to check out at Little Italy, and they also had a stall at the Farmer's Market.
