One of the friendliest places in San Diego. Toran, the owner is very outgoing and helpful. He creates an ambience of joy and happiness. Now about their puddings. Over the top. My wife's a vegan so I had a bunch of choices for her and loads of selections for me. They had sugar free, gluten free (still don't know what is gluten), and vegan options I will be going here on a regular basis now that I discovered it read more

When it comes to banana pudding, I like it pretty traditional. I grew up with my dad's amazing banana pudding an generally prefer that style. I had to see what the hype was about and my kids said "mom, you gotta try it". So, I did. Oooohweeee, let me tell you, this banana pudding was (chefs kiss) fantastic! I think my dad would approve. It was light, fluffy, tasty, not too sweet (but it is a dessert), I can't wait to try other flavors but I have a sneaking suspicion that the OG will always be my favorite. The guys were very friendly and willing to take time to chat while it was really busy. I forgot to take a picture before inhaling my treat. read more

Cute little cozy shop, built like a dispensery Lol, your new pudding plug. Friendly, welcoming service! Small, local joint with all of the pudding hitters. They offer so many flavors but only had a few when I got there (make sure you come early) that just shows how good their stuff is. The gentleman offered samples of the OG banana pudding and the pistachio, and man were they yummy! I ended up getting Oreo, Choco peanut butter and pistachio. We seriously couldn't wait and started indulging, so we ate them in the car. Also, you can preorder and they will reserve your flavors, in case you don't see what you want. My top from what I got would be Oreo, it was packed with cookies. Rich and creamy. If you love cookies and cream, this one's for you! Bangerrrr. Pistachio, was delish. The nutty, creaminess did not disappoint. Choco and peanut butter, was good. Just a hint of peanut butter They offer: Cupcakes Pies Ice cream Pudding pops DONT MISS OUT ON HAPPY HOUR 4-6 Highly recommended! read more

I kept seeing this place in my Yelp recommendations and even some reels and decided to check it out! They have variety of banana puddings including cookies and cream, ube, chocolate and many more. It was interesting to see that the recipe was originally the founders grandmas and has been passed down with the generation! Also got to know that it started out as selling in farmers market and now they have two locations! The store attendant was really nice and let us try some of the flavors too! If I had to use one word to describe it I would use extraordinary! LOL It was such a sweet delight on one of the first sunny days of the season. They use the classic vanilla wafers for the cookie and their pudding is creamy and rich! I got a small size and it was good for 2 maybe even 3 people! it came out to be 10$. There's not much seating but they do have one bench on the outside. Seems like it's more of a pickup spot anyways. read more

Surprisingly, the original banana pudding was my least favorite of all the ones I tried. I arrived at opening so I had a good selection to pick from. The standard pricing was $9 per container. They also had daily deals on a few flavors for $7. The employee was very polite and he made the short interaction pleasant. *Banana Pudding: had a few banana pieces incorporated into the pudding. It lacked banana flavoring in the pudding itself so it would have benefited from more fruit. Tasted vanilla forward. *Ube Pudding: had a more watery consistency but the flavor was earthy and slightly sweet. This was my favorite and it didn't taste artificial. *Oreo: had a cakey base which went well with the cream pudding. On the sweeter side but cake gave this more density and heftiness. *Butterscotch: simple and sweet. This was the fluffiest of the four I tried. I wished there was an element of crunch to elevate this option. Overall I felt that the original pricing of $9 was a bit high for the quality received. The fun, unique flavors were more memorable than the banana although more could have been done to enhance this classic dessert. read more

I didn't even know I was a banana pudding fan and I'm not really a putting guy, but since I was in the area like all the reviews say you should give it a try and I must say it was totally delicious the unique flavor, combinations of Oreo, cheesecake and strawberry and Ube and Chocolate and Biscoff. You have these delicious varieties of banana pudding that I never really thought was possible and I would say it's makes sense for it to be a to go atmosphere. Fun place in great service now it's say overall it's such a good banana pudding spot that if I'm in the area I'll go back. It's not really a thing that I'm going out of my way for, but I do think if you're in the area it's worth a visit. Also, I do wish I went during happy hour at 4 PM because two dollars off is a great deal for each banana pudding. read more

It's hard to find good banana pudding and this place has the BEST fresh tasting pudding that hits the spot. My boyfriend and I tried the banana (a classic must), Oreo, butterscotch, and the strawberry cheesecake. All were light and not overbearing with added crap like how fancy restaurants have theirs. 11/10 would make the drive to stop by again and try the other flavors! read more

Extraordinary Banana Pudding - Cookie, Pistachio and Ube Banana - Desserts Near Me - La Mesa, California

Quite ordinary banana pudding. I was feeling a sweet treat after a stressful construction shift. Walking in, there is the menu plastered across the wall and a fridge containing all the flavored puddings. The service was great and the server was friendly and tried to spark conversation. However, the pudding wasn't anything extraordinary. I tried the banana, Oreo, and butterscotch pudding. Banana pudding tasted mediocre, but the banana slices in the center were a nice touch. Butterscotch pudding also only had the essence of butterscotch and didn't stand out that much flavor wise. Oreo pudding was by the far the best and I highly recommend this flavor. The Oreo base really balances out the sweet Oreo pudding. If I were to go back, I would only get the Oreo pudding and try to get other flavors to write a better review. Nothing too extraordinary though. read more

Came here with my mom and the banana pudding was delicious. My favorite was the biscoff but the banana bread one was good too. My husband wanted the pistachio one and he enjoyed it as well. The only negative part of our time here was the service from the owner. My mom was in the hospital last year for 5 months and now has some strict dietary restrictions as a result and when simply asking what the sweetener was in the sugar free flavor the owner got a bit aggressive and started saying he wasn't forcing us to buy it. We decided to take the gamble and my mom did end up enjoying the sugar free version. But I do have to say that the interaction ruined the overall experience a bit. read more

My cousin was visiting from out of town, and mentioned that she loves banana pudding, and we found Extraordinary Banana Pudding. It's located in a small strip mall and parking was relatively easy as they have their own lot. There's a huge sign with their name which was nice and welcoming. There are a couple seating available which was nice if you want to sit and enjoy your pudding right away -- and then maybe contemplate buying other flavors lol. We were greeted right away and offered a sample of their Original Banana Pudding which was really good! It was fluffy, light, the banana flavor was really good as well. They have 27 different flavors of pudding, but we ended up getting the Oreo Pudding, Ube Pudding, and the Banana Cheesecake Pudding. We enjoyed all three puddings that we got and because the portion size is generous, we ate them throughout the entire day! Also, they offer happy hour, which I believe is $2 off all sizes! read more

I recently visited Extraordinary Banana Pudding over the weekend, and let me just say this place did not disappoint! I'll start off by saying the customer service was amazing, I didn't get the gentlemen's name but he was super friendly and even let me sample a few puddings before I purchased them. I could tell he really cares about his business and customers. I came specifically for the banana pudding, and it was absolutely delicious. I also tried the banana bread pudding, which was equally amazing if not better! Both were rich, flavorful, and had the perfect balance of sweetness. There are so many other flavors I'm excited to try on my next visit. Would I go again? Absolutely! read more

Extraordinary Banana Pudding - red velvet pudding - Desserts Near Me - La Mesa, California

Saw this place on IG and thought i would give it a try. The pudding itself was too sweet and honestly it tasted like anything you can make for yourself. The most outrageous thing about this business is the prices. On the website it says a 30x30 tray is $30. When we went to pick up our tray the day before thanksgiving it was $45. The owner never said the price while running my card and it wasn't until I checked my bank statement I realized it was $45. That in itself was shady af. From reading all the other reviews, it seems like that's a very deceiving practice and false advertisement. Even at $30 a tray is crazy, let alone $45. Don't let social media fool you. This place is not worth it. It's anything but extraordinary. read more

If I could give zero stars, I would. I really wanted to support this small business, especially because I've enjoyed their banana pudding before but my recent experience was so incredibly disappointing. I reached out to the owner on Instagram to order desserts for Thanksgiving. I specifically asked for the prices before placing my order. He told me the pies were $30 each and a 6" cheesecake cake was $90. That's $150 plus tax. Simple, right? Apparently not. When I picked up my order, the owner didn't give a receipt, and because I had my kids with me, I quickly paid and left. Later, I checked my bank account and saw I was charged $179.98 nearly $30 more than what his own prices added up to. So I messaged him thinking he accidentally overcharged me. Instead, I get this unbelievably rude response: "I didn't overcharge you. Tax and fee to process your debit card." A $29.98 "tax and fee" on a $150 order??? That's almost 20%. That's not a "fee" that's a money grab. When I asked why the fee was so high, he doubled down with the most arrogant, unprofessional comment I've ever seen from a business owner: "I didn't force you to order anything. It was your choice." Excuse me? That's how you talk to a customer who supported your business? My question had nothing to do with whether I "chose" to order it was about why you charged me nearly $30 in unexplained add-ons. Then he tried to talk down to me with, "Yes! There's a fee and tax," as if I don't understand what tax is. No, what I don't understand is why your "tax and fee" costs as much as another pie. The attitude, the dishonesty, the refusal to provide a receipt, and the complete lack of transparency is ridiculous. I genuinely felt taken advantage of. Warning to future customers: Please check your charges carefully if you decide to shop here. There is zero transparency about extra fees, and the owner is extremely rude when questioned. I will not be returning, and I absolutely cannot recommend this place based on how I was treated. read more

After a disappointed taste-test of last week's limited edition banana pudding cup from Crumbl Cookies, I decided to finally stop by Extraordinary Banana Pudding after having them bookmarked forEVERRR-- and I think I just found the best banana pudding in San Diegoooooo . I stopped by last Friday right around noon and parking was pretty easy to find-- its located in a small strip mall with a few other stores . The outside of the shop looked up to date and upon entering there's a huge sign with their name which I thought was very fun and inviting . There's a menu of all of their flavors right on the wall with pricing and even a pick-up window for online orders ! I wasn't sure if I had to place an online order, but I was welcomed by two very kind gentlemen working who welcomed me in and said I could walk through and just grab to-go as well . I told them it was my first time in, and they offered me to try samples of their best sellers which I thought was pretty awesome ! I went with the ORIGINAL BANANA PUDDING and the UBE BANANA PUDDING, but I also tried banana bread pudding and Oreo banana pudding which were both pretty solid choices as well ! ORIGINAL BANANA PUDDING-- such a heavenly bite . This bite was everything I ever wanted in a banana pudding bite; The texture of the pudding itself was sooo fluffy and light, as if it had been whipped . The flavor was spot-on and not artificial tasting at all ! There were fresh banana slices, Nilla cookies, and vanilla cake layered generously though-out . My only complaint is I wish the portion was bigger because I literally ate the entire box to myself and still wanted more lol !! UBE BANANA PUDDING-- LUXURIOUS . This is a fun and unique banana pudding flavor that literally caught my eye because of its beautiful and bright purple color . This has the same perfection of the OG banana pudding, but with a nice ube coconutty undertone . I highly recommend trying this one for my UBE LOVERRRRS out there ! Overall, Extraordinary Banana Pudding now has a special place in my heart, (I mean stomach). Customer service is amazing-- Toran and Keith are such sweet people and are easy to talk to . The shop itself is very presentable, clean, and welcoming . The best part is what they offer-- their grandmother's secret homemade banana pudding recipe that's made fresh and with love everyday-- you can truly taste the authenticity ! I will forever be baccccckkkkk ! read more

Stopped in on our way home from our dinner date after watching a review of this place on Instagram a few days ago. Although we were super full, I had a sample of the original banana pudding, and it was seriously so good!! The employee was super friendly, and the store was clean, which we so appreciate! Bought a Biscoff and a plain banana pudding to have later tonight, and we're very excited about it. I read some reviews about it being pricey, and although that might be true, I'm all for supporting small businesses! read more

Best banana pudding! And customer service was top tier. Would have posted the picture but it was gone in 5 min it was so delicious.

I was pumping gas at the station in front of a little strip mall and noticed the Extraordinary Banana Pudding storefront. I was intrigued, so I drove over there to check them out. They have several flavors but I really wanted butterscotch pudding because that's my favorite flavor. It did not dissapoint! The pudding has a light, mousse-like texture, which is WAY better than the box variety you make at home. I will DEFINITELY be back. This can turn into a dangerous obsession! Absolutely delicious and can't wait to try another flavor or two. read more

At this point i dont even care what the pudding taste like! The owner is RUDE AF!!! We just left here. Group of 6 of us. We came out of our way just to come support. Got here at 4:30.. apparently they close at 5... as the owner KEPT telling us!! Ok. They were out of a lot of things.. which is fine.. but u dont have to get smart and be rude! This was our first time there and we r trying to support your business. Also.. y did u take the cupcake out of my sister's bag after she payed for it? Then when she noticed, you said.. oh I was going to give you another one... ok but if she wouldn't have noticed she wouldn't have had a cupcake she paid for. So What were you doing?? Rubbed all of us the wrong way. Never coming back and i don't care how good the pudding is. The reviews about his attitude are true! read more
