    Heybings Desserts is a cute Korean cafe serving bingsoo, waffles, and drinks. It was nice to see plenty of seating and outlets available. The staff was kind, and the menu featured all the classic flavors. We tried the black sesame bingsoo, which was perfect for sharing but too sweet. We also sincerely appreciated the generous 20% military discount. Highly recommend!

    Hyped by a friend and I understand why. ** Mochi waffle - first time to try one. (not a fan of mochi, sticky food) BUT THIS ONE IS SO GOOD. MUST ORDER!!! It's freshly made to order. Toasted on the outside and soft on the inside. I'm coming back for this. ** Mango Bingsu - Smooth untextured ice, check! I don't like vanilla but the the generous amount of mangoes, the syrup did not taste fake, and it was just not toppings but also sandwiched in the middle. In every bite you can take, you get everything until your last scoop. Dog friendly place!!! Servers were so nice. Spacious place to stufy and have a doggy date!! I'm coming back for more and an excuse to go with my dog.

    A great spot for something refreshing. Overall their flavor selection was not super big, but they had and interesting seasonal flavor, grape jasmine! In addition to their bingsoo options they had mochi waffles and drinks. I wish for the bingsoo there was a size in between their regular and large. I got the large and it was a lot for one person. The jasmine portion was a jasmine jelly insert hidden inside. The ice cream on top actually tasted like lime and then they had fresh grapes and grape shave ice. I thought the ube mochi waffle was a nice item to have with it, it rounded out all the zesty refreshing notes, and gave me something warm and mellow in favor to balance it. It could have had a more ubi forward flavor though. They have seating inside I sat closer to the door because further in I was smelling a burning plastic smell. Maybe it's the machine shaving ice starting to ask for a break from how busy they are. Everyone was nice, they did have a mix up with my order and ended up taking a pretty long time to get me my bingsoo which was a bit of a bummer since my waffle started getting cold. I get when you are that busy stuff happens though.

    I really wish Heybings had more locations outside of Orange County! I used to be an Oakobing girl, but this might officially be my new favorite spot. The shaved ice here is unbelievably soft, infused with condensed milk, and absolutely delicious. We shared the Mango Paradise, which came with mango purée, fresh mango, and vanilla ice cream and it was so good. My husband usually avoids dessert for health reasons, but even he made an exception and happily shared both the shaved ice and the chewy ube mochi waffle with me. Yum! I was honestly still so full from lunch that I couldn't finish my corn latte, but it actually tasted super refreshing the next day after sitting in the fridge overnight. I'm definitely coming back to try more flavors. And I'm bringing my pup so she can get a Woofaccino too!

    Mmmm tried the seasonal jasmine green grape, it was a 10!! It's so refreshing and so good. The lemon sorbet, the grape puree, and the jasmine tea jello created a perfect harmonic palette for my mouth. Also got the sesame peanut mochi waffles. Though the texture was good, it was somewhat bland. It needed some type of liquid drizzle to enhance the overall flavor/effect.

    Came here randomly and it was so much better than I thought. The bingsoo is seriously soft and the flavors are strong which is nice. We also got the mochi waffle and loved it! The texture is so unique. Adding this to my dessert rotation!

    I ALWAYS have to come whenever the seasonal melon lime breeze is back. Never disappoints and always hits the spot! Also tried the regular strawberry and that was yummy as well! There was only one person handling the front and the back, so props to them!! They were fast and kind to us as well as the others in the shop.

    Desserts after dinner is essential. There are very few places that were open late, and luckily we found this gem. Parking: There's a large parking lot, but since it was a weekend, finding a spot was difficult. Ambiance/Environment: We visited around 21:00, and it was poppin. All the indoor and outdoor seats were full. We had to wait for an open table. The tables and chairs can use a cleaning from the leftover crumbs. It's a fun dessert spot to bring friends & family for a late night sweet treat. Service: There's a self-ordering kiosk or you can order at the register. We ordered at the register. The cashier was simply quick and efficient. I will say throughput took a bit long bc of the high foot traffic and considering they make everything fresh. Desserts: We each shared two Ube Mochi Waffles and a single Choco Oreo. The waffles were lightly chewy from the mochi, and the ube flavor was subtle. They weren't overly sweet. The Choco Oreo is a cookies n cream flavored infused ice. It tasted exactly as described. The crumbs gave it a nice texture, and the ice cream on top made it creamier. It wasn't overly sweet either. Pricing: Somewhat expensive for waffles and ice cream. It's okay to treat yourself occasionally. We enjoyed our desserts. We didn't get any drinks, so we'll have to comeback to try them.

    Tons of parking outside and a decent amount of seating inside. Ambiance is definitely skewed towards a younger crowd, with bright lighting and loud music. A little overwhelming for me, but I am easily overstimulated, plus we were next to a table with small children who were definitely on a sugar rush. Staff was friendly enough, and ordering at the counter was straightforward. MANGO BINGSOO: 4/5. The shaved ice is incredibly soft and pillowy. I love the way the bingsoo is generously layered with the fruit throughout, almost like a parfait, so even though you're deep into the bowl, it's not just ice. I do wish there were a little more ice cream.

    I absolutely adore this place!! They are dog friendly and the service is wonderful. I absolutely loved their shaved ice as well. It is on the sweeter side, but it's the perfect icy treat. The mochi waffle is also nice and chewy. I loved the texture of it. The yuzu drink was not as sweet as I would've liked, but it was still good. I recommend dipping your waffle in the shaved ice! Strawberry cheesecake shaved ice: 10/10 Jasmine grape shaved ice: 10/10 Nutella mochi waffle: 10/10 Yuzu drink: 8/10

    I came in with low expectations: the last time I had bingsoo was years ago and it was a subpar experience. I was so pleasantly surprised by the bingsoo here and absolutely LOVED it! My husband and I shared the mango bingsoo (large size). We weren't sure if it was going to be too big for two people, but the cups/bowls for the regular size look hard to eat out of without making a mess. The large size ended up being perfect for the two of us. The ice texture is more like snow, super light and fluffy. They are also SOOO generous with the amount of mangos, and there is even more mangos at the bottom of the bowl! The dessert was perfectly sweet and so packed with mango flavor. There's several tables inside, but I can see it getting packed in the evenings/weekends. I like that it's easy to order via kiosk, and our snow came out right away. Overall, we had a fantastic experience and we are definitely coming back!

    Matcha Strawberry with Housemade Strawberry Puree, Fresh Strawberries, Condensed Milk, and Matcha Ice Cream

    This might sound a little weird, but part of me was genuinely worried that I might have cursed Heybings. After seeing several bingsoo places in the Bay Area close shortly after discovering them, including my all-time favorite (still bummed all of these years later), I couldn't help but fear history might end up repeating itself here. So, needless to say, I was pretty stoked to see this place was not only still alive and kicking, but thriving based on how much busier they were my second time stopping in! Now, at a glance, not much about Heybings immediately stands out (though, the decor is cute), but it's such a cozy spot to grab a nice, cool treat. At any given time, their menu has almost a dozen different varieties of their bingsoo to choose from, including their classic and specialty/seasonal flavors, as well as a half dozen types of mochi and liege waffles. What's more, they also have a mix of specialty drinks and coffees to offer, ranging from your basic sorts of espressos, like Americanos and cold brews, to matchas (including ceremonial grade) and a super interesting mix of lattes (ube, black sesame, injeolmi, houjicha, etc.). -- MATCHA STRAWBERRY - Matcha Base with House-made Strawberry Puree, Fresh Strawberries, Condensed Milk, and Matcha Ice Cream This may not be super unique, but there's a reason why it's so classic - the strawberry and matcha complemented each other so well! Plus, not only were the two flavors really well balanced, but this wasn't nearly as sweet as I thought it was going to be. -- JASMINE GREEN GRAPE with Lemon Sorbet, Green Grapes, Green Grape Puree, and Jasmine Tea Jelly As good as the Matcha Strawberry was, I actually thought this was even better! The bit of tartness from the sorbet made this feel super refreshing on such a warm night, the grapes helped reinforce the puree really well. and the jelly had a terrific pop of tea to it! -- SESAME PEANUT MOCHI WAFFLE Not quite what I expected, in both good ways and bad, but still pretty solid. Rather than just a chewier waffle, this was like a glob of mochi crisped into a waffle. That said, I wish this had a stronger taste of sesame and peanuts to it (just had flecks of them in the mochi). Beyond how much we enjoyed their bingsoo and waffles, the other thing I love about this Heybings is their service. Across both visits, the workers have always been super friendly and relatively quick with getting orders out, even when they've been somewhat busy. Plus, their location is super convenient, as they're not hard to find and the complex has tons of parking spaces. Heybings - I'm so glad you guys helped to break the curse! So long as you guys stick around, you'll definitely be seeing come back again and again! All in all, FOUR AND A HALF STARS rounded down for now.

    I went again it was just ok. It wasn't as good as I remembered. The melon was not sweet enough for me, it was just ok. We got the melon seasonal shaved ice and it kinda disappointed. I prefer the mango and strawberry maybe I'll just stick to that next time. Service was nice, place is clean

All you gotta do is order at a window where a cashier will take down your order and then wait in the side for your freshly made churros. I'm always down for a classic churro hot chocolate combo (French is my preference for the richness) but if you're trying to beat the heat, you can't go wrong with condensed milk either. I will say it does air on the sweet side but I view it as a small indulgence every now and again. Every crispy bite makes it worth it!

I highly recommend if you're not into crowds. There was only one person ahead of me and ordering was super easy through the kiosk. I went with the matcha and the hokkaido milk swirl on a cone. First bite, I tried the milk side on its own, and I loved how light it was. Not overly sweet. Then I tried the matcha by itself. It tasted earthy and had that matcha flavor. When I combined the swirl together , the matcha definitely took the spotlight. It kind of overpowered the milk swirl but I didn't mind it because I'm a matcha lover. It still balanced out nicely. Just more on the earthy matcha side. Oh, and let's not forget about the waffle cone. It was perfectly crunchy and tasted so good with my soft served.
