I love Hui Lau Shan so much! This location is in MKT which is a cute shopping center with plenty of restaurants, cafes and cute stores to explore. The establishment brightly lit with cute decor. The cashier was friendly. Hui lau Shan never fails to have delicious, perfectly ripe mango, luscious coconut milk and sweet bursts of pomelo that add a wonderful textural element. The best thing is nothing is too sweet and you are able to get your dessert fix without feeling too guilty. My diagnosis: this is the place for amazing mango desserts! read more

(+) Held over decor from the previous tenant, which is bright and very open (+) The items are all very good, made with mango-themed everything with sago and pomelo, reminiscent of HK dessert spots (-) Prices are very steep. While I do enjoy the drinks and desserts, and the whole entire area is very popular, I personally cannot justify paying these prices. So if you've got money to spend on a sweet treat and it's not breaking the bank for you, then by all the means, this is the place for you. If you've got mouths to feed and have to budget, steer clear or come for special occasions. read more

Fresh, hand-made mango drinks and desserts! A different type of dessert but very delicious and fresh. There's a lot of different drinks or bowl options. The toppings are very interesting. It reminds me of vietnamese dessert drinks (which I'm not a fan of), but it's much better! Nice service, cute interior. Will come again if I'm in the area! read more

A great addition to MKT! As a mango lover myself, there are so many great options to satisfy your mango cravings. We came during the afternoon so there wasn't much of a wait although, the MKT parking lot is always packed. A decent amount of tables inside to sit at. I love the modern decor. The staff were friendly and quick with service. The menu has a variety of handmade drinks to their mango dessert bowls. The mango chewy ball and the pomelo and mango with sago are my favorites from the menu. What I like about their desserts is how light and sweet it is. The mango is always fresh and not too sweet. Their mango mochi is also good if you want something dry. I love the texture on the mochi. I've become a fan of Hui Lau Shan. Hope to see more locations open up. read more

What should I get for dessert in MKT? Hui Lau Shan has risen toward the top of the list ever since they've replaced the Yumcha. Their endless menu of everything mango-related has quite the appeal, even for those that don't go feral for mangos. If you've visited the Hui Lau Shan in Chinatown, you can expect similar quality and taste at this location. I'm not much of a sweet tooth so I typically order the mango yogurt. It balances out the sweetness and texture of the mango below. I like to mix the mango yogurt together, but drinking it as is tastes fine as well. Alternatively, the coconut jelly with mango can also suit people that prefer mild sweetness. My only gripe with this place involves the cleanliness. The floors could use a mop every once in a while. Also, I know we're nearing peak humidity in Houston right now but geez, the gnats absolutely swarmed the floor tiles near the door. A couple of gnat traps right outside the door should do the trick. read more

Mango lovers rejoice and unite! A great dessert option inside the MKT, good for a cute date night stop after dinner or a small gathering of friends. It's got that modern decor with a steady stream of K-pop music vibes. Menu centers around mango in all its juicy glory, with a variety of dessert bowls and customizable drinks with topping add-ons. It's fruity and refreshing but can be on the sweet side for sure. The pomelo bowl is a popular pick and I've been branching out trying more of their drinks these last few visits, all been pretty good. Ordering at the counter is very efficient, staff has always been friendly and usually stays pretty chill during the day so haven't seen any crazy lines in the times I've been recently. read more

Food (mango with coconut noodles) - This is a perfect after-dinner dessert (especially after visiting De Gama Canteen, in lieu of your craving for mango lassi). It's NOT TOO SWEET, light, yet sneaky elevated flavors and texture. Besides the mango slushy under the mango ice cream, they make this coconut noodle that has the exact texture of young coconut meat!...and it balances the tartness of the slushy with the smooth flavor profile. AMAZING. Service - was good. No issues. Ambiance - was cute vibe but not the cleanest seating areas (typical of a popular refreshment place), so we ate outside and enjoyed the outdoor space in the area which was perfect after dinner. read more

Oh my goodness, this was really heaven on earth, especially if you are a mango freak! They had a variety of mango flavor, desserts, and I decided to go for the pomelo mango treat. I'm not sure why they served it to me in a cup and straw, when I had wanted a bowl type of dessert when requested, but nonetheless, I did still enjoy the drink! I will say, I wish they would have indicated how the customization work i.e. increase or decrease syrup, sugar, amounts, etc. but that was not described. The people were very nice, and the feeling of the place was very family oriented. Maybe I will ask a little more questions next time, as the drink is pricey enough for you to get exactly what you want! read more

I blended the two and it was really good, creamy and thick. really enjoyable this drink. they have a nice variety and it takes time to decide. The inside is nice but small so seating is limited.

This place is like heaven for dessert lovers with variety of options with tropical fruit flavors and especially mangos! My absolute favorites are the mango pancakes, and egg waffle with mango ice-cream. Located inside MKT Heights - the most happening area in the heights these days, this place is perfect for your sweet tooth needs after some good food around here. It does have the feel of modern boba and dessert cafes with good seating area. There is plenty good space to sit around MKT Heights and enjoy your food if prefer as well. Where they lose a star is on the service side - the staff is cold and could use some training on being better. I for one was annoyed when the casher decided to force exit me on the receipt screen while I was trying to enter my email for e-receipt - saying I was taking too long! I am glad they have good food at the least to balance this out. read more

After eating a heavy meal, my cousin and I were wanting something light and refreshing for dessert. We stumbled upon Hui Lau Shan on DoorDash. First, their packaging was so cute! We tried the jumbo pomelo& mango sago first. It was just what we were wanting. Light, fresh, and not too sweet. The mango pudding's texture was rich and dense. The cream to pour on top gave it just the right amount of sweetness. Not pictured was the mango yogurt drink that we couldn't stop taking sips of. If you're a mango lover, this is the perfect dessert spot! read more

If you love all of the mangoes then this is your spot! Idk where they find the mangoes, but they are literally the best. You can't go wrong with any option on the menu. All of the flavors blend together well and overall not too sweet. My favorite is the mango with pomelo bowl. The regular size is a good size, but I can definitely finish that one myself. If you're sharing, I would go with the large. This location is within MST. If you've been to MST you know you can have all of the parking or none of the parking. Depends on the day. The location is ideal for working or a small gathering of friends. You can also take it to go and go sit on the back side of MST or walk around. Overall this is my favorite dessert spot. read more

Located in The Heights, this place is nestled among charming, walkable restaurants and boutiques. The space has high ceilings, a clean and airy vibe, and just enough seating to feel cozy without being loud or crowded. We loved the window display of desserts and drinks.The staff were kind and patient while we browsed and placed our order. We tried the mango chewy ball, which was bursting with real mango flavor. It came with a generous serving of mango, chewy mochi, and creamy ice cream. Next up were the mango pancakes, filled with the perfect ratio of cream to mango soft, fresh, and delicious. And finally, the egg waffles, made fresh to order. Lightly crisp on the outside, soft inside, and not overly sweet just the way we like it. Everything was satisfying and full of real flavor. This spot definitely hit the spot for my sweet tooth and I'd happily go back. read more

We went on a Thursday evening and the line was like 20ish min long! it was nuts. I guess we weren't the only ones that wanted "not too sweet" dessert. We made friends while in line, so that helped. The mango chewy ball is my go-to, but they also have other desserts. I want to try the drinks next! read more

Delicious! I love mango so naturally I needed to try this place out. Taste was great. Service was fine. Ambiance was really nice. I went with a group of 6 adults on a Thursday night around 8:45 pm and it was still fairly packed but we were able to find seating. The jumbo mango and pomelo and sago was huge. It can feed 2 hungry people and maybe 3 or 4 people just looking for a touch of dessert. It's a watery bowl, so it's potentially weird to share with someone you're not willing to kiss. Enjoy! read more

Of course, all their mango dishes are super fresh, with high-quality sweet-tasting mango and toppings.

I was really pleased to hear that Hui Lau Shan opened in the heights, particularly MKT, as now I can get this when in the loop. I ordered my usual A3, which tasted pretty much as it does every time. It's not mango season now, but I'm glad they can get decently sweet mangoes still. Inside, there are several tables for groups to sit at. It is well lit and very clean. read more

Currently my favorite dessert place in Houston - so excited they opened in the Heights as I live kinda far from Chinatown. They didn't change the interior decor from when it was Yumcha - I kinda wish they had added their own touch to it and made it a little more distinctive from the previous business. Got my favorite drink - D4 mango and coconut with sago. Tasted good as always although I took off one star because I wish they had put in more sago. Overall very excited for this opening and hope they will do well. read more

I usually avoid visiting places during grand openings due to long waits and slow service, but a peek inside and the store looked very calm, so we decided to try it out. There were about 10 people in front of us, but the line surprisingly moved very quickly and we got our order even quicker. I've been to the Chinatown location a few times before, so I can attest that the quality and taste is just as delicious here! They are currently offering a grand opening promotion today and tomorrow (5/26) where you can get a free drink of choice with the purchase of any 2 items. We got our usual mango chewy ball dessert and decided to try the coconut jelly with mango and the mango pomelo sago drink. I think the coconut jelly is now our favorite dessert there! The coconut jelly is creamy and smooth, silken almost like tofu with a hint of sweetness. It also came with toppings -- chewy balls, crystal jelly, and of course delicious mango chunks!! The inside is much smaller than the Chinatown location, but it was still nicely decorated. Overall, I highly recommend this spot if you're wanting refreshments on a typical hot Houston day! read more

The baklava here was fresh made with layers of phyllo dough, chopped nuts, and held together with some honey. The nut offerings here included, almonds, walnuts, peanuts and a few more. Overall I was impressed with everything they offered here with the exception of the nuts, which I thought were just ok. I'd definitely return if I was in the area.

The Dubai crepe was super rich and creamy and nice large portion size. The strawberry mousse cake was frozen solid, so I was not able to eat it right away but it was a lovely mousse with jelly fruit filling and a thick chocolate crust. Also got a bag of chocolates, which are weighed by the pound. The only qualm I have is that the chocolates are not labeled, so when you mix them all together, it truly is a bit of a Russian roulette on what you'll get. Everything was super yummy. Will definitely need to be back!

So cute!

This is not a place you go to just have lunch or something.This place is an experience. Some adults might find joy in here (like I do), but my children definitely did, and that's worth it. They came here with the same excitement that they had for disneyland so I'm really happy about that. We all liked the harry potter experience and some different anime type experiences as well that my children liked. The foods and drinks are on theme and although it's not cheap, it's definitely not as much as Disneyland. We came on the weekends, but during lunchtime, and I can see how they might be really busy during the dinner rush. Sometimes you might need a timed entry to go in, but thankfully, we have not since we've been going. I will say that it's quite small and gets cramped really fast. I just think the experience of it all is a really cool and I'm happy we have fun places like this around us in Houston.

I ended up paying for fast passes (they do release free fast passes, but those get scooped up quickly, and I was able to pay $3 per ticket on eventbrite to snag fast passes). Our pass was for 1pm and we were inside by 1:10pm. They do reserve the tables initially for the fast passes, at least when we came in at our time and it was great because I couldn't imagine being here without a table since I had a group of little ones with me! The staff were super friendly and worked as quickly as they could. There was a little bit of stress because of volume of orders and people, but they did the best they could and handled the traffic well. We got a variety of drinks and each enjoyed them-- I will say, all of the drinks are on the sweeter side, but definitely standard for kids. We literally got one of everything on the menu and I wasn't able to grab photos before the kids enjoyed them, but that's the whole point! The add ons can become pricey, but for the enjoyment of your little ones, it's definitely worth it! For food, we got the Derpy spam rice, ramen and grilled cheese. The kids all really enjoyed it and definitely wanted to come back for the next pop up themed cafe!

Inside you will also find French pastries, coffees and teas, gelato, milkshakes, sandwiches and macaroons. I felt the most interesting items were the French pastries as they are cute and tasty as well. Also, they plate the pastries nicely when you dine in as an added bonus. I tried the Chocolate Royale and the Ruby. Chocolate Royale - a petit chocolate mouse slice with flat chocolate panels along the sides. It is delicate and tasty. If you're a chocolate lover, this is definitely up your alley. Ruby - visually this looks like a strawberry Hershey kiss, with red powder on the exterior and a top piece of foil to resemble foil on the wrapper of a hershey kiss. Inside, it's filled with a strawberry cream and has a chocolate base. I just wish there was more chocolate in this one. They have plenty of seating inside as well as along the sidewalk. Inside you have the more fancy tables, whereas outside, they're more weather resistant and not as upscale in appearance. The soft drinks to drink along with your sweets are in a cold case along the hotel side of the space and you just take them to the register as you order. One of the most surprising things when you come here are the relatively affordable prices as you might expect them to be more for being a coffee shop attached to a 5-star hotel with a helipad.

As part of the Post Oak Hotel, you can access this place from both inside and outside entrance…read more This place is super cute and seems to have a fair amount of people who come here to work or place an order from an good assortment of pastries and gelato's. What's nudged this place up to 5 stars for me is they have really improved their coffee game, specifically their quality of cappuccino's. Previously it seemed more of latte, but now to me its a legit Capp. Their choice of pastries hasn't changed, which gives you a good assortment of choices and they have added an additional barista or server which also is a nice touch for service. The only niggling items, parking can be tough, so you'll have to either walk a block or be quick to find a place close by. Regardless, definitely give this place a go to come for a pastry and coffee.

I decided to go for small just to try it out first vs get a slice and pay $15 which in the end it didn't matter cus it came out to $12 for 2 items I got. The cupcake I got was cookies and cream but it just taste like reg store bought cake. You know the type that it's "chocolate" but there's not much choc flavor to it. The cream cheese frosting was like eating melted grease and added nothing to the rest of the cupcake. I ended up taking a bite and dumping the rest. I got one of their brownies but gave that to my husband so he could eat it at work. So can't really talk on that.

The almond paste was just the right amount and the croissant flakey on the outside and fluffy on the inside. I'm both happy and sad I shared it.

There used to be one Cinnaholic in Austin, but sadly it closed down about a year or two ago. It was my favorite place to go to get cinnamon rolls. So you know that if I'm in the area of Houston, I have to make a stop. Lots of parking. I got the Biscoff cinnamon roll and my husband got the Irish coffee and cream cinnamon roll. I was a little bit underwhelmed with the Biscoff one to be honest. When I first cut into it, it was so thick and bready that I got confused for a second and said "um... where's the cinnamon? Is this just bread??" Eventually I DID get to the cinnamon part though. But that outer layer was all bread. Perhaps it was how bready it was or that I found the toppings slightly underwhelming but... yeah. Still yummy though but not my fav. My husbands though - his was amazing! But also incredibly rich. I saw a pic of a peach cobbler one of here and it looked phenomenal. Perhaps that'll be my next one. Regardless, we gobbled them both down and had no issues. Would def come back when in the area. Wish they would open up again in Austin! :)
