The filling and mochi were both not too sweet and surprisingly, did not taste very dense. The size of it was HUGE (the size of my fist). I couldn't finish it in one sitting, so I'd highly recommend sharing. I tried to refrigerate my leftovers, but it didn't taste as good the next day. Thus, make sure to enjoy right away! My only wish is that there was more crystal boba! Also, since the filling had an immense amount of cream cheese, it's definitely an acquired taste. We waited about 25 minutes for the mochi to be ready since it's made fresh. Free parking lot in rear. No space to sit inside, but there's a small bench outside that could seat around 7 people. Very small space; definitely more of a to-go spot. All in all, it was pretty good and I would definitely come back to try their other flavors.

This for sure is an acquired taste. I personally love cream cheese and purple rice but I heard…read morepeople not liking the cream cheese. Everything here are just personal preference, doesn't mean it's bad. For me, the mochi is always chewy and stretchy and the ingredients taste fresh! The fillings are never too sweet (haters may say bland but i prefer it healthier lol) and the portion is also very generous. The taro is also fresh real taro and not those fake colored ones flooded with sugar. The matcha also tasted very matcha just a bit too sweet (kind of like white chocolate matcha) but again, personal preference. When i first ate it i thought it was ok, but i find myself craving it from time to time haha. So i tbh dont understand the low rating and feel it's unfair to the store. A lot of people say the filling is too heavy but rly, if they reduce the filling, everybody going to complain that it's just rice flour? And if u ever see those mochi shops in taiwan and japan, their mochi skin is even thinner than this because they want to focus on the filling. If u want mostly mochi or get sick of food easily, i recommend to just get their mochi dip instead of the ones with fillings. As for the service, it has always been fast for me, only the wait to order at the self ordering kiosks take long but thats not the shop's fault.

We visited Butter Lab for the first time on 05/10/2026 in the late morning hours…read more The person helping us out at the counter, on this somewhat busy morning, kept the flow running nice and smooth (and he was friendly) So, we tried a few things during this visit. Two items for immediate consumption and then some cookies for later. We purchased a dozen of the regular size cookies, including both Ube and Thai Tea. Both of them were excellent, and I felt they were priced appropriately at a dozen for $18. The Thai Tea seriously tasted like you were truly drinking a thai tea. We also shared one large classic chocolate chip cookies (so yummy!) The only thing we didn't understand is that we shared a Ube Tres Leches. I am not sure what was going on. Don't get me wrong, what we ate was very good; however, it was 100% not Tres Leches. It was an Ube Cream with some graham cracker crumble underneath. So, my assumption is that they must have just given us the wrong item. I would love to try the Tres Leches again in the future. Please support his lovely local business. It was a real treat!

I've always seen businesses come and go in that plaza due to the lack of foot traffic and when I…read moresaw a IG post about this place I knew I should come and support a local shop. This place is really great! I love that they have unique flavors that most bakeries don't have like ube and pandan! The banana pudding is so good! Not too sweet! I came in just for that but I saw that they had a ube blondie and that was amazing too! Montebello isn't known for many things but these local shops really do bring the community together! I do see myself coming back here in the future, and I really hope to see this place succeed!

We both got the C1 dessert, and I also got an order of the pandan durian layer cake and an order of the taro cake. The pandan durian layer cake wasn't overwhelmingly pungent with durian, it almost felt like they just brushed the cake with some durian if that makes any sense. The taro cake was delicious! I think they may have warmed it up a little and I enjoyed the bits of taro in it. We came in a Saturday afternoon and was able to park in the lot as well as walk right up to the register. I think 5-10 mins later there was a line almost to the door and all the tables were taken up. My grandma has already decided that we're coming back hahah so I guess I'll have an excuse to try something else other than the C1 dessert!

As a foodie person, I specifically look for this place since I've been seeing reels that say's a…read moremust go dessert place! The place looks new, clean and spacious. I came around 4pm and the place was not busy. Service was great, they are nice and helpful. What they have are typical Vietnamese desserts that I found common in any Vietnamese place. I didn't find anything special that caught my eye about this place. However you can't go wrong, it's still good but just ordinary for me. Also, I feel their portion is small. Overall, nothing special, a little bit over rated.

Churros Don Abel has been on my list for some time, and we finally came last night! We were…read moredeciding between #1 (10 churros) and #4 (6 churros with strawberry, condensed milk, and caramel). We opted for 6 churros because it was just two of us. The churros were so good - crunchy texture, great size, and perfectly sweet. The sauce, which we asked for on the side, was good but sometimes too sweet - so I'm glad we asked for it separately. It looks like cost has gone up recently. It took some time to order since they make it fresh, which was fine for us. There was a crowd of about 5-6 other parties waiting on the street for their churros - so you'll be in good company! Next time, we said we'd order #1 with a group of 4. I love churros as much as the next person, but I think I need to share them with more people!

The churros here were pretty good, but meant to be shared. I visited this food truck looking for…read moresome dessert after lunch and I had a relatively good experience here. This food truck is on the street, but there's ample free parking at a nearby lot and other food trucks sharing the same curb and area. I ordered 5 regular churros for $8 which was a bit pricey, but not too bad. This portion size I got was not on the menu and I inquired about these since I was looking for the lowest quantity of churros as possible. The churros were overall good and tasty. Crunchy, sugary, and fried nicely. They did taste a bit oily though, but it is a fried treat after all. These were still too much for one person though. If I had to try it again, I would want to get some sauce since I felt like it was missing those as well as bring another person to share them with.

People were getting the sundae, hot fudge, and dipped cones, with the only downside being that a few slush/slush float flavors were unavailable that evening. I ordered the small plain suncup which is a generous serving of their vanilla soft serve. Don't let the word "plain" fool you; it's a worthy, full-fat, creamy, and flavorful delight, unadulterated by wafer cones, chocolate, or colorful toppings and syrup. Not sure why it's called suncup though.

I did share other items selected by my friend who was with me and did not get to taste them. The baristas were fun and friendly as they prepared our coffee. I was in deep thought waiting and one asked if I was okay and I said I was very good after coming back to the present. I'll be back for more dinosaur churros, coffee and other yummy treats.

Fyi - it's located on the second floor right next to CPK. It's a small cake shop that can handle a few customers at a time so be patient if you're coming with a group or if it's busy. The employee we interacted with was nice and more than willing to answer any/all questions. We even got to try a free sample of their chocolate cake while we looked everything over. You can build your own customizable cake if you're adventurous with plenty of toppings to choose from. They also have signature cakes if you get overwhelmed and want to keep it simple. My better half and I shared a Strawberry Shortcake. We were both surprised by how good it is! A perfectly moist and tasty treat! They also write your name on the cake box so you can take pics and humblebrag to your friends/family. We like that all the cakes are individual-sized so it's not too heavy. Bonus points for having a lot of gluten-free options! Hope Peace of Cake continues to be successful! They also have online ordering/pick-up available.
