    I recently tried this place for dessert and really enjoyed it. The staff is very friendly and knowledgeable. The venue is small but clean with lots of nice decorations. We tried the mango pudding which was delicious and fresh. We also tried a mango drink which was excellent. I look forward to visiting again.

    First time here, went with the pandan mango sticky rice mochi dessert. Chewie and Mellow has a small location in this plaza with limited seating. Counter service and kiosk ordering is available. Heard mixed things from friends who come here often (quality can be hit or miss), so keeping expectations in check. But this dessert was solid: pandan jelly, mango, and sticky rice all had a really nice chew to them, and the coconut milk on top kept everything light instead of heavy. Not overly sweet at all, which made it perfect after a meal nearby. Will be back to see if the rest of the menu holds up the same way.

    This is a dessert shop in Irvine located next to Hironori. They have tons of fruity desserts and dessert drinks. I got their mango tango, which came with coconut milk, mango, grapefruit, and tapioca balls (sago). It was delicious and a perfect dessert drink to enjoy on my drive home. I'd definitely come back if I were in the area to try their mochi drinks.

    Such a cute bag!

    This is one of my favorite places to get dessert. I have been trying to find a good Hong Kong dessert place for a long time. Hui Lau Shan just isn't good anymore. Chewie and Mellow satisfies this craving so well! I got the mango coconut mochi drink and mango pomelo sago. The mango pomelo sago was so good! The milk pudding reminds me so much of melo melo but without paying the high price. Both of the desserts that we got had mangos that were really sweet. The mochi from the drink had a good texture and the drink was so addictive. I just wish they had actual mochi balls as a topping on the menu. That would be such a great addition to the desserts. The interior of this place had such a cutesy vibe. A lot of different pop mart figures and toys on the walls. Super whimsical feel. The to go bags that they give are also soo adorable! All in all, i love getting my dessert here!

    Refreshing dessert option. The red bean was yummy. Cooler bags available on request. The condensed milk could be more flavorful/higher quality

    This is a cute little place for bubble tea or any milk puddings I got the pandan pudding and fresh mango pudding that was gone in 5 min!! Tha delish

    Look how CUTESY this place is?! It felt like a mini Pop Mart store with all the adorable decor & collectibles! My friend even got me a blind box to open The milk puddings were so yummy & filling! Soft, silky, and almost tofu-like texture. They literally melted in your mouth. I got the taro one, which had pieces of yam & other toppings that really brought the dessert together. My friend got the mango milk pudding, which had little bits of sago & pomelo that made it light & refreshing. We also tried the Peach Princess, smelled just like peach candy! Such a refreshing dessert for a hot day. My friend absolutely loved the mango drink too. Such a fun little dessert spot, delicious treats & cute vibes all around!

    Was recommended to this cute place by a friend! Right outside of John Wayne, there's this tucked away plaza with a bunch of food places, and Chewie and Mallow was right inside. The cafe itself has you order at the front, and there is a small, but cutely decorated seating area that leads down a hallway. (No bathrooms by the way, so you will have to go elsewhere if looking for that). I saw that they had a promo for a free milk pudding, and I tried to register for an account, and my friends and I ordered enough to make the cutoff, but then the guy at the register said that the account had to be another day old before I could use that promo sadly. We ordered the strawberry milk mochi, the mango tango, and the mango pomelo sago milk. All of these were delicious, and I really liked the smoothness of the mochi in my strawberry drink compared to 3cat's mochi. Drinks came out decently fast, and overall good service. Would come again next time I drop by the airport!

    My favorite place for hongkong style milk pudding. Locates in a big plaza with plenty of parking. Both of the Mango & Mango Pomelo Sago (杨枝甘露) Milk Pudding is very tasty, it balances between the sweetness, creaminess of the pudding and the tartness of the topping. Will return to try their bowl.

    Lots of pink

    Came here on a mission for the Coconut Revolution... and yeah, it revolted by not being on the menu . Audible called and landed on the seasonal watermelon coconut--and honestly, no regrets. This place hits that perfect "treat yourself" lane. The drink was super refreshing, nicely sweet, and loaded with that fun chewy texture that makes you feel like you're eating and drinking at the same time. You can customize sugar and ingredients, but I rolled with the standard and it was dialed in just right. On a hot Irvine day, this was exactly what I needed...a little pep in the step, a little sugar happiness, and a solid excuse to slow down for 10 minutes. Located in one of those busy Michelson shopping centers where parking feels like a competitive sport, but worth the effort once you've got a cup in hand. Bottom line for me: fun spot, great flavors, and a solid mood booster when life (or traffic) starts testing you.

    Great drinks and cute decor! Tried the taro and strawberry cloud mochi drinks which were very good. Also had the fresh mango milk pudding and it was very good and very refreshing, especially for a warm night. The service was quick and the worker was friendly and helpful. Would definitely come back here again! They definitely deserve more business.

    Cute sitting area

    Just happened to be at the center and stumbled across this cute fun place! The sign out front caught my eye, so I decided to try one. Then, decided to get two. (Hahah!) When the guy saw I spent over $15, he told me I get an ADDITIONAL one for free!! OMGGG... So here I am with 3 perishable items all to myself. Thinking back, I should have given one to a passerby, but I just thought of that right now. I would have really made someone's day! They were all delicious. I was actually able to just take a taste of all three and they made it home to save for later. My favorite being the Korean milk pudding. The toppings that came on the White Peach flavor was similar to popping boba, but even more fun and crunchy! The pudding reminded me of Melo Melo. Very refreshing and not too sweet. - Mochi Matcha Bowl - White Peach Milk Pudding - Mango Coconut Mochi Drink I was able to get the Mango Coconut Mochi Drink with ZERO SUGAR!! Guilt free and still amazing! Win-Win-Win!

    The store is still running strong and the flavors are always delightfully welcoming to the tummy. The place got a cute vibe and I have been taking all my friends and gf here to try with positive results.

    A hidden gem in Irvine!…read more Great breakfast/coffee spot. Have been here a few times and each time has been a great experience. Food and coffee is consistently good. The ambiance is perfect for hanging out or getting work done. Coffee wise, have tried the Nutella Madeleine and their seasonal Pumpkin Latte. You can completely customize each drink when ordering which is so nice. Both drinks were fantastic, with the Nutella one being my fave. Food wise, the Bacon Egg and Cheese sandwich was delicious. Perfect size for breakfast. Great vibe here. Staff was very friendly. The whole place is super clean and welcoming. Will definitely be back when in the area!

    Honestly disappointing, especially what appears to be good reviews of this place…read more The only positive factor I can remember is how much seating there is inside (lots of people just meeting up, working, etc). - You order on two available consoles, which you think would help with efficiency and workflow (it was pretty busy when I got there). However, it took my drink a while to come out. There was a sign above the consoles that indicate ETA of the drink. Based on the color I thought it would be a quick wait but it ended up taking 15 minutes. It seems like the coffee station, manned by one person it seems, was cranking out multiple drinks whereas the drink I got (matcha) took a long time - this is despite me being one of few matcha drinks ordered when I was waiting... - I noticed that as the barista was whisking my drink, she took the whisk out, took a look at the whisk then with her bare hands touched the tip of the whisk and reinserted it into the cup.. all without washing her hands or using gloves... I honestly wanted to say something but I was already in a rush and didn't want to make a scene at an already busy hour and the barista looked kind of frazzled already... - If you are hoping for a strong matcha, this isn't the place to go to. I got the blueberry matcha, which was a pale green in a color and it tasted like a premade mix of blueberry matcha.. although calling it matcha may be a bit generous as the drink just tasted like blueberry milk...Not sure if I'll be coming back.. not for matcha any way

    On such a hot day. I was craving something fresh and nutritious after church…read more My Yelp friends led me here, and when I first walked in, there was a little bit of a line which I usually interpret as a good sign. I spent about $14 for an açai bowl their tropical mango bowl I believe. I had some modifications since I didn't like the raw coconut offering or the banana so I opted for sliced almonds and extra mango with almond butter on top. After waiting a few minutes, looking at the bowl, it didn't look like much and sadly it didn't taste like much either. The almond butter was globed on top and made it really difficult to eat. After bypassing the almond butter I was able to get into the açai which was way too sweet. I'm not sure what type of açai they use, but it did not taste like a freshly prepared açai it tasted more artificial and overly sweet. It may have also been sweet because of the honey I believe they put on top of it. The combination of the açai with the honey and then almond butter was way too sweet. The mango was OK not as firm as I would want it to be and the granola was at the bottom at the bowl and also sprinkled on top, but unfortunately it was the worst acai bowl I've ever had. Parking is free and they do offer a few seats inside. The staff was also really nice but unfortunately, if I do decide to come back maybe I'll try a smoothie instead.

    This place was amazing! For those who have a nut allergy, their granola is nut free which I love…read moreand they put their granola nutrition ingredients list in front. I got the small razz party acai bowl and it was already filling 12.75. would come again

    Hui Lau Shan -- Mangoes, Brain Freeze & One Bee Awaiting the Hereafter…read more 9/7/26 -- Irvine, CA -- 5/5 After Korean BBQ, we arrived at Hui Lau Shan -- pronounced roughly hoy lo sahn in Cantonese -- already stuffed to the structural limits of the human abdomen. Naturally, this seemed like an appropriate time for dessert. Hui Lau Shan is a Hong Kong-based dessert chain heavily devoted to mango, which is immediately apparent from the display case filled with glossy dessert mannequins identified by little tags like "J3 Pomelo & Mango with Sago." The place knows its constituency. If mango is your religion, this is at minimum a chapel. The Irvine location itself is remarkably unpretentious: cracked, slightly sticky-looking concrete floors, deafening music that sounded approximately 15 years past its cultural sell-by date, and a youthful crowd containing several people whose legs appeared skinnier than my fingers. I felt less like a customer and more like an archaeological specimen temporarily admitted for observation. Being the radical nonconformist that I am, I came to a mango dessert shop and ordered the watermelon with coconut jelly. On a hot Irvine day, it was excellent -- cold, clean, refreshing and just sweet enough. 5/5. The little yellow Hui Lau Shan spoon, complete with cheerful fruit-headed mascot, provided an additional level of emotional support I did not know dessert utensils were capable of. We also had the J3 Pomelo & Mango with Sago, which arrived as mango, pomelo, sago and a scoop of mango ice cream lounging together in a bowl like wealthy relatives at a resort. Also 5/5. Cold enough to initiate a brain freeze, but on this particular evening brain activity had already been reduced considerably by KBBQ, so little was lost. The ordering system is straightforward: your receipt gives you an order number and server name, and the display samples make choosing fairly idiot-resistant. Ours even identified the J3 and the watermelon dessert clearly enough that no graduate degree in tropical fruit studies was required. There was, however, one melancholy resident inside the display case: a small bee apparently trapped behind the plastic among the immaculate fake desserts. Outside, Irvine remained warm and prosperous. Inside, mangoes glistened. The young remained young. The bee contemplated mortality. Los Angeles throws pollution into the atmosphere at rush hour; Hui Lau Shan throws mango into essentially everything else. A very good dessert stop after an irresponsibly large meal. Especially if you love mango, shaved ice, fruit desserts and the mild humiliation of realizing everyone around you appears young enough to be your intern. 5/5. If you are a mango lover, you will probably leave happy. If you are a dying bee trapped behind the dessert display, your evening is developing somewhat differently. 当然。下面是一个更简短、正式、没有幽默成分的中文版本: 许留山 Hui Lau Shan -- Irvine, CA 评分:5/5 在韩国烧烤之后,我们来到许留山吃甜品。这家店以芒果类甜品为主,店内展示了多种甜品模型,点餐方式简单直观。 我们点了西柚芒果西米和西瓜椰果甜品。西柚芒果西米包含芒果、西柚、西米和芒果冰淇淋,口感清爽,甜度适中,芒果味很突出。西瓜椰果也非常适合炎热天气,冰凉爽口,不会过甜。 店内环境现代、休闲,顾客以年轻人为主。服务和出餐流程都很直接,整体体验轻松方便。 如果喜欢芒果、西米、椰果和港式水果甜品,许留山是一个很不错的选择。 5/5,值得再来。

    **Disappointing Customer Service Experience -- August 24, 2026, Around 6:00 PM**…read more I've been coming to this store almost twice a week, so I'm very familiar with what my usual smoothie should look like. Unfortunately, my experience today, **August 24th around 6:00 PM**, was extremely disappointing. I ordered the **Berry Banana Burst** with an added spinach. While watching my smoothie being prepared, I noticed the employee added what appeared to be an entire bag of spinach. I immediately knew it was significantly more than what I normally receive. I politely asked if it could be remade because the amount was excessive and completely different from the usual amount I receive. The employee went to the back and brought **Cassandra S.** out. Cassandra told me they could not remake the smoothie simply because the spinach had already been added. I was honestly shocked. I explained that this was clearly not the normal amount, but she still refused. I then asked for the other employee's name so I could provide accurate feedback, and she refused to give me her name, which I found very odd and unprofessional. Ultimately, I asked for a refund, which they provided. While I appreciate getting my money back, it raises a bigger concern: if a customer receives a drink that is incorrectly made, is the response really to refuse to fix it and simply refund the customer? That doesn't seem like good customer service or a good business practice. I actually work in the ingredient industry and sell ingredients to **Nekter**, so I have a particular understanding of how important consistency, preparation, and customer experience are. I would strongly recommend additional training for the staff at this location, particularly around customer service, product consistency, and having a customer-first mindset. I've been a loyal customer and would have much rather had my smoothie remade correctly than receive a refund. Unfortunately, based on this experience, I'll be visiting another location going forward. I hope management reviews what happened during the **August 24th, approximately 6:00 PM shift**, because this was a very disappointing experience for a regular customer.
