    Was walking around the source and noticed this cheesecake place on the first floor. I saw they had the burnt basque cheese cake and wanted to try it out. I was expecting it to be similar in price as the other cheese cakes at 17 but it was $24. But oh wells. I liked that it was soft and fluffly. I didnt even need to chew too much. It also isnt very cheesy which was probably the best part. I saw the other ones had cheese cheese in it and that wouldve sent me to the toilet. I would probably buy it again but not too often since its pretty pricey.

    We came on a Saturday and luckily the line wasn't long at all. We ordered right away. You order thru a small window and their area seemed clean and well kept. We received our order right away. We ordered the original ($12) and cheesecake ($16). Both were super moist and soft. The original was a little plain. Reminded me of a soft version of pound cake. The cheesecake, however, was delicious!

    I've seen this shop a few times I've been to this plaza and today I've decided to try it. I was expecting something more like Uncle Testsu and was surprised to see that they only have 3 stars. I decided to bite the bullet and try it out. After reading few reviews, I opted for the creamtella and thank god I did. The Castella itself is soft and fluffy since it is a sponge cake but I can imagine by itself would be not enough flavor and maybe a bit dry. The creamtella alleviates this by shoving a cream between a horizontally cut castella. The cream makes it better but overall, the meal is too heavy for me with not enough flavor. If the cream was milkier, it would've been a different story. Also the sizing is huge! It's practically a cake made for 4-6 people which makes sense since it costs $13. I would've preferred a smaller portion size for cheaper but there were no other option. Needless to say, I would save my calories for something else next time.

    My friend hyped up this place so we stopped by. It's a small place, grab and go, not really any seating but it's in the Source so it's easy enough to find seating nearby. It was a little pricey, but it's a relatively large loaf so it's understandable. However, it was pretty dry and lacked in flavor. It tasted like it was maybe sitting out for a while. My friend and I were pretty disappointed, she said it was better before. Probably won't come back.

    I've eyed this spot for awhile now and finally made it to The Source to try it out. It's a small corner window where you order and pick up right away. I was intrigued by the Castella Cakes, so got one original ($11). The cake itself isn't really big, approximately 8x5inches. It's good for about 2-3 people as a snack. Once I bit into it, I realized how plain the cake was. It's basically a sponge cake --that's it. It was so dry and plain that we immediately went back to get a cup of cream on the side for $2. The cream really helped and it even had a milk flavor to it. Overall, it's pricey for a simple sponge cake. The more popular item is their cheesecake, so that's probably the better choice here. It seems like the same as Uncle Tetsu's, so I didn't bother to try that.

    It was well flavored. Strawberry Cheesecake was too moist. Glad I had tried. Service was good. It's a buy and go window. No seating.

    Cheesecake $14, the consistency isn't very good, prefer Uncle Tetsu

    Tried their most famous Cheesetella, for me, it's basically a lightly sweetened sponge cake. Over the years I had bought Uber cheesetella for a friend's birthday, it's definitely more photogenic but taste wise, I wasn't impressed. Then one day I was really craving dessert and they happened to have only original cheesetella and cheesecake so I gratefully took the cheesecake. It wasn't bad first few bites, very similar to Uncle Tetsu. However, half way finish the cake, there's an inconsistent texture like it wasn't baked through or didn't mixed well. For now, Cheesetella is a No go to me

    walked by and saw they had cheesecake so i decided to get one for my girlfriend! the came came out really quick, service was nice and pleasant. the cake was overwhelmingly dry and not appetizing, you definitely need some water to digest it.

    My wife heard great things about Don Melt so she stopped to grab some ice cream to give it a shot…read more First off, it's located at the end of the mall under the stairs so it took us a while to locate it. Once we arrived, there was plenty of chairs and seating and the place looked pretty cool. They also had a pretty extensive menu which consisted of coffee, tea, lattes, Korean drinks, smoothies, sparkling aids and of course, ice cream. I don't like ice cream but I was actually pretty excited for her to try it. Cool name, cool spot, I'm willing to bet something on it, it's about to be fire! After waiting a while I noticed she was still at the front, I wasn't sure if she was looking at the menu or what. So I go to the front and no one is in sight, I see the bell and I ring it and a young girl comes to help. Make sure you ring the bell smh. Finally after the long wait, and a small line formed behind us, she finally gets her ice cream on a cone. I see her walking towards me happy and then she takes a bite and everything goes out the window. She hated everything about the ice cream. It wasn't what she thought, she didn't like the texture, the flavor or anything about it. She had me taste it and she was right, it tasted like ice without the cream and kind of bland. It is exactly what it is marketed as, low fat, low calorie, low sugar, and low carbs so I have no clue what she thought she was getting. It clearly said, plant based lol. I told her and she said she at least wanted it to taste creamy and she was right, it was far from creamy but Don Melt didn't do anything wrong lol. Anyway, she didn't want to be mean so she held on to it until we got a few stores down and tossed it. Then we went on a hunt to find her ice cream smh. Now, from my experience, it wasn't bad and I understand what they are doing. It's a healthy ice cream that isn't creamy and it's not something I would eat but I get the concept. It's for healthy eaters wanting to fill a craving, which isn't for everyone and I think she was being a little emotional about wanting her ice cream. I personally wouldn't go back for the ice cream but I'd be willing to try something else off of their menu. I can see why this is pretty popular among healthy eaters. OOO 3 out of 5 Afros
