Mango and strawberry binsu
Vira P.

I really enjoyed the bingsu I ordered here. It came with fresh mango and strawberries. I didn't really eat the ice cream, but I did like the creamy texture against the shaved ice. Otherwise, I thought the shaved ice was just enough to get that bit of sweetness to enhance the sweetness of the fruit. Then again, is it really bingsu if there's no ice cream? Probably not. And it is a big portion! I could not finish it, but I did manage to eat all the fruit. Service was pretty fast. We were the only ones there, though I'm not sure if they take online orders since they also have some savory items. There are two screens at the entrance where you place your order. It was pretty clean inside. Most of the tables are for larger groups, which makes sense because since the university is nearby. The partitions make the place feel maze-like, but it probably helps with the noise. Street parking is hard to find. Plus the restroom is part of the business park, so finding it can also feel like a maze (though I missed the sign for it initially). I would like to go back to try one of their savory items. But as far as a dessert place goes in a college town, it's pretty good and worth a try.

Rainy day, one of those days that makes you crave something sweet... We didn't want to drive far, so we looked for something nearby and found this café... and wow, what a delicious surprise. The donuts are amazing and they have so many flavors. We tried a little bit of everything: churro, caramel churro, crème brûlée, cookies & cream, fruity pebbles, mango, chocolate... and the crazy mango snowflake! That last one... let me tell you, it's incredible. It comes with vanilla ice cream and mango on top... just perfect. The service was excellent, super friendly, and it also arrived really fast (about 30-40 minutes). Everything was delicious. We loved it Definitely coming back. Highly recommend!

Housemade Cookies N Cream Tiramisu

Honestly it was pretty fire, could be more cookies-and-creamy but I get that they didn't want to overpower the light dessert. Super yummy!! And prepared very quickly

Ube Croffle
cristina p.

This location seems to be in the same place where Feng Cha is located. We came last night after kareoke with a group of 8. The entrance was Dessert Cafe, but inside on the wall it said Feng Cha. I don't know if you can order from the counter or not, because there were 3 self ordering kiosks available and no one at the counter. A majority of our group ordered croffles. They said it was tough and tasted stale; it was difficult to cut into. We have tried Dessert Cafe in Concord before and their croffles were fresh and crispy. The bathrooms "weren't working" either. There was a sign that said "No Public Restroom". Legally I think they're supposed to have their bathrooms open/fixed for customers to use if they are a food service establishment. It took awhile for our bingsoo to come out, even though there weren't many people dining in. Also, looking at other people's photos, our mango bingsoo did not look like theirs! The presentation wasn't the same and ours just look sad compared to what was advertised. No ice cream on top either. The bingsoo was good though.

Oreo croffle
MaryAnn A.

I was just looking for a quick dessert, something sweet and this place was perfect! The prep croffle was really good, not overly sweet at all! I usually don't like creams/frosting type topping, but this was fluffy, airy and actually pretty good! The creme brûlée was my favorite! It's really a perfect crème brûlée, perfect sweetness! Wasn't a huge fan of the pistachio cake, wasn't terrible but I wouldn't get it again. There's also other snacks (cheese sticks, corn dogs, fries, boba, ice tea/milk tea and more!) The service was quick and friendly. The ambiance was super cute, cafe style environment. Could probably sit there and do homework or something. Social seating, plenty of tables. Very clean! AND the best part is, pricing was amazing! Each item did not exceed $6! Definitely going again! (Actually came back the next day, lol) Check it out for yourself!

ube croffle
Pamela S.

Still love this place, but today, something was way off with the ube croffle. Cream color and texture was off and the actual croffle dough was more dense than usual and not as fluffy.

I've gone multiple times and lowkey I've been disappointed in at least one thing each time. The tiramisu was dry, the Korean style cheese and corn dogs were so hollow and the bun was chewy, the strawberry tiramisu seemed like it used frozen strawberries, the mochi was kinda mid, and the milk tea was mid as well. Some good things are their bingsu, their fruit teas, and that's it. But because I've been disappointed thrice, I'm not really down to go anymore. Their service is fast and their tables are always clean but most people don't even sit and eat there, there is always online orders.

Banana Nutella Croffle, 3 Pieces m, Tiger Brown Sugar.
Jessica K.

We were looking for dessert after dinner and this place popped up. It was close to where we were and open late. There were so many delicious looking options it was definitely hard to choose. There were a few people inside, but it was super chill. Quiet with some music playing. We got our orders in a few minutes. The croffle. The croffle. If I hadn't had so much at dinner I probably would have ordered another. I'll probably be back sooner than later. Sending anyone who will listen.

Strawberry cream waffle
Sydney J.

After learning that this had opened, I wanted to give it a try. I ordered the strawberry cream waffle to go; though they sell croffles too, I don't particularly like croissants so I figured the traditional waffles would be better. They also sell boba and bingsu, so I'm hoping to try the latter sometime. The strawberries tasted fresh and just the right balance between tart and sweet. The cream is sweet, and very pink. The waffle was cold, though this may have been intentional to avoid melting the cream, and I wish it was a little more crispy. Overall, it was decent and I like that they have a large menu, so I'm sure there will be plenty of things for anyone with a sweet tooth.

Seating and neon
Ted R.

Dessert Cafe made a fan of me on my first visit. The previous restaurant wasn't here very long, although it showed flashes of promise. I'm more than happy with the replacement and all the sweet treats offered. The interior is the same, except for the new signs with the name of the restaurant. I suspect it may be the same owners. It's easy to order from the kiosk just inside the front door. My croffle was awesome. I have to admit that it was the first one I ever had. Croissant + waffle = delightfully light and delicious. It was pretty cool that my waffle was made fresh and the chef whipped up the batter just for me. Still, there's something about the waffle wasn't quite gourmet. I was just expecting or hoping for something different. I like mine to be crisp on the edges with a soft interior. Instead, the effect was more like a blueberries and whipped cream version of an ice cream sandwich. Five stars for the croffle and three stars for the waffle. Four stars total for now.

There are three ordering kiosks by the door to help the line move quickly. There are tons of seating- which I'm sure goes quickly. The staff were feverishly working in the back- the menu is pretty diverse, which is cool there is something for everyone. Tonight I got some delicious goodies to sample. Uber tiramisu and a delicious smoothie/milk tea non dairy treat... so mango, so demure (see what I did there!!! Lol) The taste is as good as it looks! And it is difficult to get ube these days that taste real. Delicious options!

Too bad. The boba tea is not made of real milk. The place is not comfy to stay and the Mochinut is displayed without disinfecting protocol.

King Pin Donuts is a neighborhood staple! Located on Durant Avenue, it is close to the UC Berkeley…read morecampus and is a popular spot for students. This well-established donut shop is small but has lots of options. There is also some outdoor seating right outside the store. The service is quick, and the person behind the counter is always willing to answer questions. My friend and I both tried an apple fritter, and my partner got a chocolate milk. The apple fritter was crispy with a nice glaze on top and delicious chunks of caramelized apple inside. This donut was extremely sweet, but honestly it's exactly what we needed! I normally go for apple cider donuts, so this was a great alternative. It's a good place to go when friends are visiting!

Honestly, not worth it. My maple glazed doughnut was extremely mediocre. I will say that I liked…read morethe texture, but the aftertaste was a bit gross. I feel like I could taste cleaning agents and other products that were not a part of the ingredients for the doughnut itself. The cinnamon donut I got was old and a waste of money. Both of the donuts weren't cheap. They arranged from 3 to 5 dollars and are not fresh. The customer service that was provided was okay. The ambience is what you would typically expect from a donut shop. In conclusion, I wouldn't recommend this donut shop to others. They could improve their business by decreasing the amount of donuts they make so that they don't have tons of identifiable old tasting donuts.

Omg, such great ideas for selling mochi donuts and drinks! Such a perfect combo!!…read more This place has been on my list to try, so when I was in Berkeley yesterday, I had to stop by! I got the Strawberry Lychee Roasted Matcha Latte (Hojicha) and the Ube Coconut Butter Mochi Donut As I've been more into hojicha lately, I had to try the strawberry and lychee flavor! It was perfectly balanced and not overly sweet. I loved it! The donut was so chewy and delicious, and the Ube flavor on top was amazing. I also love that it's an open kitchen, so you can actually see them making everything fresh. It smells SO good when you walk in! Definitely add this place to your list if you're around the area! FYI, there's no designated parking lot, but there's plenty of street parking around. There's also no seating inside. Hopefully they open more locations around the Peninsula because this combo is too good! PLEASE!

Maybe back in the day, Third Culture's matcha was considered novel, innovative, and really good…read more But compared to all the new matcha spots popping up, I honestly don't think their drinks hold up anymore. Especially at the price point, you expect a more premium drink. The matcha was gritty and tasted mostly like milk, with just an essence of whatever flavor it was paired with. For the price, I was expecting something much more flavorful and refined. The donuts were fine, but nothing particularly special or memorable. Overall, I just don't think the drinks or donuts justify the price compared to what's available now.

We saw a review of SoDo Donuts on tv this morning and what better day to check out a donut shop…read morethan on a Sunday? We got dressed, put the dog into her harness and made the drive up to Berkeley. The square block that houses SoDo seems to be all wineries. It's a good thing we saw the episode because we rarely drink wine and never go wine tasting. SoDo occupies only sells donuts and coffee out of a small corner of a large building. There is a large variety of tables and seats outside of the building and a couple inside. Service was friendly. The display area isn't huge, but if you don't see what you were hoping for, it's a good idea to ask. They may have it behind the counter, out of sight. As usual, because I was outside with the dog and she was the one ordering, she kept it simple. "One of each please". That was one Apple Fritter, six Sour Dough Donuts, a "Slice of Summer" Focaccia, one hot and one iced latte, tip and tax. About $80! In general, what we got looked delicious, albeit a bit small in size. But they were large in flavor. You could definitely taste the sourdough flavor because it was not overwhelmed by the topping or filling. The dough was very springy. Unlike a regular donut that squishes down when you bite into and then stays somewhat flat, these donuts returned to their shape minus the bite. I enjoyed my Iced Latte although I'm guessing they only offer one size. I usually order the largest cup available. As I'm writing this, we've only tried the Apple Fritter and two other flavors so far. Below are some pictures of what we got. I'll name the donuts in the pictures later once I figure out what they are. Would I come here again? Yes!

I think this is a sweet spot ... tucked away in a spacious warehouse…read more I stumbled on SoDo because we watched several World Cup games at the adjacent wineries. SoDo has a nice vibe. My espresso drink was great. My daughter and I tried a few of the donuts. Tasty. I also tried their caramels and hazelnut toffee. Excellent. Service was friendly. Next time, I'm really curious to try their breakfast bowl.

I'm a huge fan of mochi donuts and also love mochi boba drinks, so I knew I had to come check Mochiholics out. Arriving around 7pm on a Sat evening, this spot was surprisingly empty. We were able to order at the self-service kiosk without a wait, and received our order pretty promptly afterwards. The prices are pretty reasonable, and I love their selection. Although we were pretty full so we did not partake of any mochi donuts that evening, we opted to share an Ube Coconut Milk Smoothie w/ Boba. My wife, who usually does not drink much boba (hence the sharing of a cup) wound up really loving the drink, and actually drank about half of it herself. The taro was fresh and very strong, and the boba quality was soft, chewy and delicious. We have easily found our new, favorite local boba spot with Mochiholics. And look forward to many more visits into the foreseeable future!
