The gentleman ahead of me was from out of town and with his family when he offered to buy me something from off of the menu. I was already chopping it up with his young son while waiting in line and I assume he just felt some good vibes while being in good spirits. It was their first time visiting the shop also. I wanted that Biscoff Taco that I had been seeing on instagram. Unfortunately, they ran out. lol. So I grabbed the Oreo Cookies and Cream ice cream taco. They are currently priced at $10 and in my opinion it was worth it. I enjoyed it. It was frozen and cold like it should be. Creamy and crunchy. I can imagine it being way much better on a hot or humid day. It was really good. I began eating soon as I got back in my whip lol. They have many options on their menu. Some items I would like to go back and try soon. If you haven't already, pull up and check em'. I heard the spot is owned by a young teenage entrepreneur and I find that to be dope and inspiring all in itself. Wishing nothing but tremendous abundance and success to the company and team. I would definitely choose this spot over Baskin Robbin's any day.

The display case is great & stocked with fresh baked goods. They offer sandwiches, croissants, muffins, donuts, (holes), chips, beverages, specialty drinks and so much more deliciousness!

I can't speak to the tacos sold at a place that does drinks as I haven't tried them, but I can say the following: Ambiance (3/5): Small but cute, they don't skimp on AC even as it's a sunny little shop. Great for studying if you're able to nab a seat; they have three tables that seat 4 (maybe 5 if you bunch up on the bench). The natural lighting makes it pretty nice to so some work in there. They have an extension cord with multiple outlets tucked in the corner under the corner table. Service (4/5): Server was friendly and quick. I'm glad he asked if regular milk was okay because it reminded me that it's not for my husband. It's a small thing but it's appreciated! I also loved the little surprise of getting some extra smoothie in a small cup, perfect for my daughter. Why can't other shops be like this? Appreciate it! Drink (4/5): The strawberry banana smoothies tasted fresh. Real fruit bits and not overly sweet or artificial tasting. My husband and I both noted that it had great flavor. My only gripe was that it was still a bit icy; it was hard at times sucking the smoothie out of the boba straw we used. If it were blended fully and smoothly, I would say it would be near perfect. Would we come back? Based on this experience, if we need a quick stop for a drink before the freeway, this makes for a good stop. I wouldn't mind trying out one of their match drinks next time (those look pretty good)!

For my very 1st review as an official Yelp Elite All-Star (which I extremely earned by doing 31…read morereviews in 1 month last month!!!), I choose to do my 1st February, 2026 review on this gem of an Asian-owned business in the heart of Carson, California: Avalon Cafe & Boba! It may be a small establishment for now, but this little place has such a BIG heart and quality via their in-house drinks and foods! My very 1st taste of this place was thanks to my wifey for bringing home their Chicken Pesto Sandwich; which was the thing that got me HOOKED and wanting to try more of their stuff! Everything from its texture balanced out with the juiciness of the grilled chicken, toasty grilled bread, their seasonings and all around flavor just straight up HITTTT! For $10.75, it's honestly not a bad sandwich and I put it up against any other delis around Southern California because it is that damn good, IMO. Now...originally, we wanted to try another spot near this place, BUT there was a line and we didn't want to wait, SO ....we ended up going to Avalon Cafe & Boba instead. It was meant to be because I wanted to honestly try their other foods as well as their drinks. I believe my wifey got the Peachy Like Me with lychee if I'm not mistaken? while I got their regular iced Thai Tea. Her drink was very refreshing and my drink was great because it wasn't watered down with too much ice like other Thai Tea spots. Food-wise... Like I stated... I wanted to try their other stuff, so I ended up getting their super proteined-up Breakfast Croissant! I told the owner to just load me up with that ham, cheese, bacon and sausage, so he did!!! LOVED IT! Tastes way better in gourmet quality compared to donut shops. Hard to fully explain, but you have to just try it for yourself. I also wanted to try their Pastrami Melt and damn.... Bruhhhhh... compared to other famous delis out there, THIS was just amazing because you got that crunch from their toasted/grilled bread, along with their specially seasoned pastrami with all their fixins! It's not even oily or too drippy! Nothing but perfect balance and such a gourmet/homely flavor compared to other pastrami delis!!! On the side, I had some of their seasoned tater tots, but the sandwiches stole the show for me. All in all, this little place was just so warm and welcoming all around literally out of nowhere. It was our jump-off, but ended up being such a hero/star/main eventer in our hearts and tummies that day of rejected hunger due to the other spot nearby being too trendy and popular to where we couldn't partake in that other journey; but hey... Avalon saved the day and it was such an F'n delicious experience! THANK YOU and YES! We WILL be back to try the other drinks and foods!!!

The bread is full and the cheese melts in your mouth. I order a banana boba but she misheard me and made a Vanilla boba wanted that banana but im not mad about it! The vanilla tastes as if it as a hint of a coffee bean flavor, very delicious! We all love our orders. We also got a donut deal for getting boba. We've deemed this place our new spot for whenever we come up north. The woman seemed to be the only one working. Hopefully solo shifts become less for her bc right after we came in, a line eventually formed, and it was three of us ordering together. If you're ordering together, make sure to not switch around orders. Wishing the best for this business!

When I recently called to place an order for two juices, she answered, heard me speak, kept saying "hello," and then hung up. When I called back, it sounded like the phone had been left off the hook. This was not the first uncomfortable interaction. On another occasion, I walked in to order juice, and instead of greeting me, the first thing Jenny said in a rude tone was, "Next time, call." She also looked visibly annoyed. I didn't mind waiting and would have understood if she had simply explained that the juices would take a few minutes. I've also witnessed customers waiting a long time without being acknowledged, even though the employees clearly saw them. Some eventually walked out because no one took their order. I really liked this place and its juices, but customers should not be made to feel like an inconvenience. If juices are advertised and sold here, customers shouldn't be treated badly for ordering them. Better customer service and a more respectful attitude are definitely needed. Unfortunately, I will not be coming back or recommending this place to others.

Dulce Canella has so many options to choose from but we got the Dubai Strawberries, Churros, Mini Pancakes, Atole, and Fried oreos. Everything was sooooo delicious and made fresh to order! You can see them cooking and frying everything in front of you, which is amazing! The Atole was one of the best i've had, usually they seem to be a bit more water down, but their Atole was not like that AT ALL. It was so flavorful. The strawberries they top the pancakes with and they use for the dubai strawberries were perfectly sweet too, it went well with everything. Their service was quick and kind, they recommended so many amazing things and everything was priced great too. Highly recommend supporting a business like Dulce Canella! So so delicious!

The funnel cake had a light banana flavor, perfectly fried to a golden crisp on the outside while staying soft and airy inside -- honestly the best twist on a classic I've ever tried.

They also have a few seats available if you need a place to sit while you wait for your order. Overall, it's a nice addition to the community, and I'd definitely stop by again.
