Wow! I decided to try cookiebar ice cream again, and absolutely loved it. Circus animal cookie is…read moreone of my favorite ice creams, and it's so hard to find. This version was so thick and creamy and just tasted delicious. Already dreaming about my next visit!

MENU AND FOOD: This ice cream shop offers a variety of Asian inspired flavors such as mango sticky…read morerice, strawberry matcha, dan tat and more! SERVICE AND ATMOSPHERE: Service was quick and efficient. Their indoor decor was appropriate and appealing. PARKING: Located on busy Webster St., they have street parking only. IMPRESSION AND RECOMMENDATIONS: We got a kid's scoop of their mango sticky rice and pandan coconut, both of which had great flavor. The only downside was the almost inedible, frozen chunks of sticky rice that definitely came as a surprise within each spoonful of ice cream. We also got to sample their dan tat and several other flavors as well. We will be back for sure in the future.

Pickup at the counter. 2 or 3 of us usally split one regular. The shaved ice is so fluffy and smooth. Mango fresh and delish. Add the condensed milk and you have a great dessert. Really not much service, but the peeps are nice.

Came after 9pm on a Saturday. The area wasn't too busy at that time so we found street parking…read moreeasily. We ordered on the tablet and our drinks came out about 10 minutes later. I ordered the Mandro Milk Tea with boba and 30% sweetness. Overall, the drink was okay. The boba was a little hard. My drink tasted almost as sweet as my friend's drink that had a higher sweetness level than mine. I liked the tea flavor though. I'm not sure which tea they used but it was good.

Such a cute cafe! Instantly Instagramable!…read more Heard they had a special Wednesday menu during summer so decided to stop by since we were nearby. What a great choice! The whole place is so incredibly charming, probably the cutest cafe in the Bay! I couldn't stop taking pics of all the art and collection of artifacts from Malaysia back in the day. Then the eats -- we had a slice of quiche, the dry laksa a blue tea refresher and the ice kacang. Everything was great and the ice kacang was amazing, so we got another one! Everyone was so welcoming and helpful too. So charming and made for a very pleasant experience. Hope they make the special summer menu permanent!

Incredibly overpriced & overrated…read more Sandwiches are so tiny and the amount of food for $48/pp is insulting. We got the kaya, bak kwa, meat floss, sardines, and sambal tofu sandwiches. The sardine and sambal ones had great flavor but just didn't have enough spice or filling. Bak kwa sandwich was $3 extra and completely not worth it. So bland. Scones were small and hard. Pandan cake & pumpkin kuih were bland, esp the kuih. I could barely taste the pumpkin but the texture was good. I ordered chrysanthemum & lemongrass tea and it was pretty tasteless - almost like water. The malaysian pulled tea was good. Very cute restaurant ambiance. Service is just ok - very basic. I really wanted to love this place but both my husband and i came away disappointed. Along with the lack of flavors, the pricing is also pretty unreasonable for the portions. Good to try once, but won't return.

I came by a few days ago after having dinner at home. I'm always buying ice cream for the house and…read morenever at a shop, and I missed the nostalgia that ice cream from a shop brings. It was my first time visiting Tucker's and it was packed the brim. Good. My expectations are up there as I look at the line. A few flavors caught my eye, mainly the marble raspberry. My choice came out as two scoops of butter pecan in a waffle cone. I've never met an ice cream shop that I didn't like.

I came across this shop randomly while exploring Alameda. I can't resist an ice cream shop so of…read morecourse I went in. There was a pleasant hubbub inside and a bit of a line but enough people behind the counter that it wasn't that long a wait. I got a cone that was terribly decadent and found a table out of the way to enjoy it. I'd decided on a chocolate dipped waffle cone, because why not? They were freshly dipped -- the chocolate hadn't even dried yet! That made it an extra treat because I was able to lick the chocolate off. Because I was being indulgent, I got chocolate peanut butter as my scoop andi must say it was quite generous as a single scoop! The ice cream was delicious; maybe not top five for me, but I'd have it again! It was a lovely treat for a summer Saturday!

My experience was exceptional!! They are very pleasant, the music was jammin. My husband saw what…read morelooked like filled donuts he inquired and we found out they are a Hawaiian donut calls Malasadas. They make them fresh, daily. They said they pretty much nailed it. We bought one of each to try. We were informed that they have other Hawaiian pastries at the Farmer's Market in Alameda. My husband wanted a breakfast sandwich which brought us here. They definitely nailed the Breakfast Sando!!! I did substitute the black truffle cheese for their Monterey and Jack combo. (I'm not a big fan of truffle flavor)‍ Our sandwiches were BOMB !!! Yes, we put some Tapatio hot sauce on it. Mmm mmm good!!! My husband actually said "This is the BEST breakfast sandwich I've had in a VERY LONG TIME!!!" We will be back, AND they are working on expanding their menu even more!!! We're here for it!!! Till the next time!!!

I ordered the Egg puff with mango, strawberries and ice cream so yummy and the egg waffle was light and crispy. It reminded of a HK cafe called Eggettes in SF back in the day when I was in college.

Tried the cheese foam on the brown sugar milk latte and it was delicious of course. We came in an hour before closing and it was nice and quiet. This is a quiet shop in the evening and for some reason I kept thinking it felt like the place where Michael Corleone shoots Sollozo. Nice, good food, nobody sticks their nose in your business, so I liked it a lot. I love third spaces and I'm glad there's a quiet spot in Alameda to relax after dinner.

I love their affogato, it was very refreshing, balanced, and a nice treat after a long day. Prices are fair and what you see in almost all the coffee spots. The place looks small from the outside, but it actually has a decent amount of seating both inside and out. I love the tall windows that let in so much natural sunlight, because it gives the cafe such a bright and inviting atmosphere. The staff are super friendly and welcoming. The food service is quick and well done. It's on a pretty busy street with constant traffic, so getting there by car can be a little hectic, but it is totally worth it once you're inside enjoying your drink.

SO GOOD. Loved all the flavors I tried (minus the Cookie Milk & Cookies--for some reason I wasn't a…read morefan). Every ice cream, including the vegan options, was so creamy and soft. Highly recommend the Pandan Hojicha (not too sweet--very rich in tea flavor), Ube Flan (sweet and ube-y with milky flan swirls), and Banana w/ Dulce de Leche (fresh and sweet banana flavor with caramel). They do charge $1 for any kind of cone FYI Will defo be returning!! Especially to try Breakfast Brownie & Cantaloupe (both were sold out when we went). Super close (barely a block away) from Fox Theater with a solid amount of metered street parking around
