    Saw some of the reviews and didn't have too high of expectations but their desserts was one of the better ones I had in a while, especially their shaved ice! Got the green tea and red bean shaved ice and for the price, the size and the quality toppings, this is essentially way better than Grace Street or other shaved ice places I tried. Excited to come back and try more of their menu

    Customized Tong Sui (mango, strawberry ice cream, grass jelly, watermelon, honeydew) -- so refreshing
    Celena C.

    I got a customized Tong Sui, and it was very refreshing. The mango puree wasn't overly sweet, and their ice cream scoop sizes are not skimpy. I'd probably come back for their Tong Sui and not much else, although they do have a lot of dessert options. The customized waffle wasn't bad (a lot better in value than Kulu), but I think I just am never impressed with bubble waffles. Very cute dessert shop. Friendly staff. Definitely will return!

    Got two shaved ice. Came here a few years ago and thought it wasn't that bad. A lot of things have changed and honestly not bad. The two shave ice came with a giant island of ice which was a downside of this place but overall, everything wasn't that bad. The toppings were pretty standard and the service was pretty nice. Overall, not that bad if you're in the area.

    Honeydew and Sago
    Stephen L.

    Quality Asian-inspired dessert shop for both dessert drinks and foods. I got the Honeydew and Sago (~$9), which was a tasty combo of a scoop of vanilla bean ice cream, coconut cream, sago, honeydew balls, and some jellies- all high quality. It was not as much as it looks like though, as the plate is actually kind of shallow but they put it on top of a stand which makes it look twice as big. The place is inside a small shopping center pretty close to Main Street. There is a nice clean seating area with some trendy Chinese decor (pretty standard Chinese dessert shop style) and a decent amount of seating. It was actually not too busy on a Saturday night. The staff were average friendliness, and the service speed was fine. The prices were maybe a tad elevated but still reasonable. Overall, 520 Dessert is a solid dessert shop that I would recommend to you if you are in this main area of Flushing and are looking to sit down and enjoy a sweet treat.

    Mango Fantastic Shaved Ice
    Alice D.

    Came here on a Sunday afternoon and the place was completely empty. It was a cute space and I enjoyed the decor/ambiance. We were seated quickly and serviced quite efficiently as well - our order was taken within a few minutes and our food was out fast as well. The size of our mango dessert and the price made it a fantastic deal. We didn't expect it to be as big as it was and we were pretty satisfied afterwards. There was a good mix of all the different toppings with more than enough ice cream and mango cream to go around as well. For two people, it was perfect to share! I would happily come back here anytime to try some of their other desserts! Thanks, 520!

    Front: Mango Pomelo; Back: Mango & Black Sticky Rice

    This dessert spot is hard to find as it is tucked away in a building where I originally thought it was an entrance to another restaurant. Upon entering, the staff members sat us down for table service, so tipping is expected. My gf and I split an order of the Mango & Black Sticky Rice ($9.50). Got various different flavor profiles and textures, which makes it a solid choice. Kind of funny they used the lid of this cup and the other piece to give it height to make it seem like there's a large amount. Overall not a bad spot to choose for dessert on a hot summer day.

    Dessert Hot Pot
    Winnie C.

    I've always wanted to try hot pot dessert, and I finally got the chance to at 520 Dessert. It was so good! You choose the base (we got the milk tea) and 8 toppings (we got boba, assortment of fresh fruit, jelly, and red bean). It was delicious. The portion was huge, and two people definitely couldn't finish it. I would recommend 4 people. The service at 520 Dessert was also great. The staff was friendly and attentive. Overall, I had a great experience at 520 Dessert. The food was delicious, and the service was great. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a unique and delicious dessert experience.

    Cannot ask for a cuter dessert place to just chill and talk with friends :) I think they're one of the few places in open for long hours, so that's another plus since most people around their 20s are night owls I'm never disappointed with their presentation of their items and I've been here maybe 7 times since they opened

    Honey Toast Box
    Cherry J.

    I visited here recently when I was trying to find a new dessert spot to try in or around Flushing. The location of this spot is inside a building you have to enter and then find. I ordered the Rainbow Mille Crepe Cake and the Honey Toast Box. The crepe cake was really pretty and came with a cut, fresh strawberry and strawberry ice cream. The toast box was also really cute. You may have to ask what comes with this one because they do not have a lot of details on the menu itself. I may have ordered the wrong things but both came with Fruity Pebbles. I did not like how sweet the toast box was (I know it is dessert though). I feel like the toast box was just glorified bread since the kiwi and other fruits tasted warm and, the bread itself was not good. Nonetheless, 520 Dessert is at a prime location in Flushing. I would recommend this place to others but would not recommend ordering the toast box. I, myself, will be coming back to try their other offerings since their desserts are well-priced.

    After two years I finally made it to this place.. I was originally going to try the 9 set dessert but then the dessert hot pot caught my attention and I couldn't resist. I would have definitely gotten both but i just had Korean bbq before that So I ended up just getting the Dessert Hotpot (herbal jelly, lychee jelly, pudding, watermelon, mochi, black sticky rice, Oreo, marshmallow, coconut base) You can customize to any way that you like Would definitely come back to try the other items!

    Signature Mango Pomelo Sago
    Vicky P.

    Cute and yummy desserts! The mango pomelo sago was my favorite and tasted very fresh. The honey dew shaved ice was also quite tasty. Definitely would be back if I'm around Flushing.

    Mango black sticky rice
    Iris F.

    I liked the Mango black sticky rice here! Fruit was sweet and fresh and it overall satisfied my Asian dessert craving. We also added taro balls for extra chewy texture which was A+.

    Melon Shaved Ice
    Rina D.

    Note: You have to go inside the main building through the glass doors, and keep walking to find this place! We got seated right away (but the seat was next to the cashier and that was a bit iffy) and our order came out pretty fast. The melons were pretty stale and flavorless. There was not enough syrup, and most of it was legit just eating ice... so we had to ask for more syrup and melt down the melona ice cream to get more flavor and it finally started to taste better.. Okay experience, maybe some other desserts are more flavorful and recommended here!

It's hard to say no here, because their bubbles are so good!…read more As one of many bubble/boba (波霸奶茶) milk tea chains that have emigrated stateside from Taiwan (original birthplace of boba), Xing Fu Tang hails from has 5 locations in the New York boroughs area, 4 in Midtown and 1 in Flushing. Their signature fresh boba is what makes their bubble tea stand out from the rest--the "bubbles" are made from cassava starch otherwise known as tapioca pearls or balls--soaked then cooked and sweetened in a brown sugar syrup. Here they have a whole wok full of these, and they're super soft, incredibly chewy and bouncy, on the sweeter side compared to some other chains, but not too cloyingly so. Their menu consists of a number of a bubble tea and coffee drinks, mostly with milk though some without, you have an option of regular milk, lactaid milk (+$0.50) or oatmilk (+$1.00). Two sizes regular or large (+$2.00) and add-ins for +$0.50 more of the following: Brown Sugar Boba Strawberry Boba Taro Boba Honey Jelly Herbal Jelly Milk Foam Matcha Shot (+$1.00) I got their regular brown sugar boba and it was a treat! Like I mentioned above, the bubbles are sooo good! Prices are on the higher side $7.99 for a regular size, it made me really miss the days of $3.75 regular-sized drinks! After ordering it took about 7-8 minutes to be ready considering the store was really busy. Note: the brown sugar boba milk tea is where they line the cup with brown sugar syrup in addition to adding boba. Technically their standard boba milk tea is without the additional sugar syrup but since the boba are already cooked in brown sugar, there's no true option of getting unflavored boba without brown sugar. Like most boba stores in NYC, the shop isn't very big, just enough space for a small line to form for ordering and then waiting to pick up drinks. All customers are taking these to go, there's no room or seats to linger.
