    The only place that has this drink!
    Stephanie K.

    Great dessert place with lots of fruity mango options. What's not to love? Like most Asian desserts, the options at Hui Lau Shan aren't too sweet. My favorite is the mango sago with fresh pomelo. It's an absolute luxurious bite of creamy coconut milk sago, fresh mango chunks, and pops of citrusy pomelo fruit. The staff are very nice and friendly. Ask for their recommendations if you're not sure!

    Mango mango mango! I love mango and Hui Lau Shan has all the possibly mango desserts for you. It was really crowded in here and all the seats were taken. The employee working the counter was awesome explaining some of their desserts. I ended up going with their Mango and Coconut Sago drink which was great. Perfectly sweet. My buddy got the black sesame porridge which looked absolutely insane but I think he liked it. Next time I would definitely get one of their mango coconut bowls. Everybody was getting that so it looked really appealing.

    I got the mango coconut with sago drink and the mango mochi. I highly recommend getting the mango mochi! It's perfectly chewy and the mango is so sweet. The mango coconut with sago is good too, but if you compare it to HeyTea, it's not quite as good. The mango coconut here tastes a bit diluted, it's not as sweet, and they don't include mango chunks. But I would come back for their mango mochi!

    A4 mango chewy ball
    Bella S.

    All mango lovers need to come here immediately (or don't, I'd love to keep this to myself). One of my absolute favorite desserts in Irvine with such reasonable prices. My go-to is the mango chewy ball A4 I don't know every single ingredient but it's basically a scoop of mango ice cream with thicker tapioca chewy balls (reminds me of Filipino Bilog Bilog), mango pieces that taste so ripe, and then the puree on the bottom. A beautifully, refreshing dessert for the same price as 1 coffee, haha. An honorable mention are the mango pancakes. Such a soft crepe-like pancake filled with a cream. My friend also got one with coconut jelly and that was SO GOOD!! I hope to come back every time I visit Irvine lolll

    ITS SOOOOO DELICIOUS OMG. The mango is a little sour but also it's not mango season right now but it tastes really good regardless. I also tried egg waffle (original & portuguese). I highly recommend the portuguese one for people who like creamy custardy flavor & texture. the store itself is a little small but very cozy, there's outside seatings as well!! the girls were very nice and attentive, they explained every component that i was confused about and they were very happy about it!

    Mango chewy balls, coconut jelly with mango, and aloe & aloe jelly with watermelon juice
    Hellen N.

    First time here and everything was yummy! We got the mango chewy ball, coconut jelly with mango and aloe & aloe jelly in watermelon juice. The drink (they called it juice on the menu, but it was more of a slushy to me) was refreshing and paired well with the aloe jelly. The coconut jelly was my favorite - soft and creamy, goes nicely with the mango chunks. The mango chewy ball was also delicious - the icy slush underneath with the freshly made chewy balls has a nice and contrast. It was fairly empty when we came, so no wait for us! Our order was ready soon after we placed our order. They have a good amount of tables indoor to sit and chat while enjoying the desserts. I would definitely come back if I'm in the area!

    I was Looking for a new dessert spot and saw this cute shop. I really wanted some good mango sago and this was it! Perfect size and loaded with mangos. Came here on a Sunday night and they were busy, but it didn't take long. Also got the coconut jelly with black rice. Which was equally delicious. There are so many options including mango mochi. I'll for sure visit this store next time I'm in the OC area. The inside is decorated so cute. Lots of outdoor seating.

    We wanted to indulge in a little dessert after dinner so we placed an order online for pickup. The process was quick and easy. I received texts and emails about this order and headed over there based on the estimated time that the order would be ready for pick up. There were several tables inside and they' were all occupied with patrons eating their treats. The staff quickly bagged up our items. We ordered Mango Romance which is similar to a sampler plate. We also got the mango and coconut with Sago drink and mango crystal jelly bowl. We devoured the items quickly and forgot to take photos. If mango fruit is your jam, this is your dessert place. I likedthat it's not overly sweet and it's a nice pallet cleanser.

    Their mango best seller was apparently the mango chewy ball and I asked ahead of time if their mangos were ripe and sweet - they do not use the Philippine sweet mango they used Mexican mango which was disappointing because the mangos were just not sweet enough or ripe. Their base taste like a really watered down slushi with 5% mango juice flavoring. The ice cream doesn't add enough sweetness. The dessert is just lack luster in general. Their durian pancake however was really good and very balanced durian flavor with whipped cream

    Mango mochi pack (6 pack)
    Fortuna N.

    For all mango lovers, fruit lovers, and mochi lovers come here for a refreshing and light dessert or drinks! They are known for their famous mango Asian desserts but also have a variety of desserts in taro, black sesame, coconut, etc. too. I came here for their mango mochi balls (comes in a 6 pack) which is absolutely a (5/5)! They are about an inch wide and tall which is different from the big round ones size of your palms you may see in NYC. It was dusted in light coconut flakes which were perfect added texture to the outer chewy mango mochi. Inside when I bit in, you are met with fresh, sweet mango! I loved the combo together which was refreshing, not too sweet, and the perfect bouncy mochi consistency bite. I managed to eat 4 of these by myself because they were that good and bite size! I also have tried their mango puddings here with variety of toppings and they really don't disappoint. Come here for any sweet treat that isn't too sweet and with real, fresh fruit!

    Customer Service: 10 Ambience: 10 Quality of Food: 10 Overall Experience: 10 I went here with friends for an after-lunch dessert and chat session. The Hong Kong egg waffle was just the right amount of crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside, toasted just right and flavorful for it. The durian pancakes were sweet and refreshing, as were the assortment of pomelo and mango with sago drinks and handmade desserts. I didn't get her name but the girl at the register was very sweet and helpful -- she helped us at around 2PM on Sunday, 9/28/25. There was a good amount of seating and the booths were very comfortable inside! There's a gender-neutral bathroom as well. This parking lot can get crowded since there's a lot of great food in this plaza, but it's a sizable parking lot. Overall, I've had good experiences here and will keep coming back!

    Love love Hui Lau Shan for Hong Kong desserts. They are known for their mango desserts, esp the 楊枝甘露 and they have added other Hong Kong snacks and drink such as bubble waffle and red bean ice dessert. The price is a little high for desserts. Services are attentive and there are plenty of seating inside and outside. It's bright and comfortable inside the store. Don't forget to get their 'mango shaped' plastic spoons. Kids go crazy for the cute spoons!

    jumbo mango chewy ball
    Elle T.

    got the jumbo mango chewy ball. on top it had fresh ataulfo mango chunks, a scoop of mango ice cream (it tasted coconut cream based), & balls of glutinous rice dough, followed by mango slush (which tasted of real mango as well) & mango pudding on the bottom (like the kind you get at dim sum). i was expecting the fresh mango to be sweeter since it is mango season rn, but it was a mix of sour & sweet. the chunks were also much bigger than what appeared on the menu. the dough balls had a nice chewiness but don't expect them to have any flavor. also if it weren't for the hint of coconut in the ice cream, this dessert tastes v same-y, so if i were to go again i'd try smth w other flavors mixed. service was fast & the tables were clean

When I searched on Google for ice cream near me- chocolate shoppe ice cream popped up then upon looking further I realized it was sold within duck donuts. Still ventured to try it Two guys working, one said he was new, and didn't know where all the flavors were / allowed us to try some b4 we ordered but was a pain bc the flavors were spread between two freezers in front of store and whatever was in the back. Placed an order for 3 double scoop cups (all they had) and took a really long time to make them having to figure out where the flavors were between the front and back of store. Then. They didn't have lids to cover them or a bag to put them in - so we literally covered each cup with another cup and put in a box I had from Costco in my trunk to get them home without dripping everywhere in my car. And I say dripping everywhere bc by the time he finished the last cup/. The others were melted from taking so long. They should probably just stick to donuts if they can't fully support the ice cream products. If I knew now/ I wouldn't have chosen to try there for ice cream. Very unfortunate, bc we probably would have loved the ice cream - but the experience clearly trumped the product.

My favorites were definitely the lavender, pistachio, and the Italian chocolate. The lavender was the most unique and would absolutely be the one I bring to wow new people. The pistachio was rich, creamy, and really well balanced. The Italian chocolate was deeply chocolatey, exactly how I like it, and I finished the whole thing in one sitting. The rose flavor is definitely for people who truly enjoy rose desserts. The strawberry was the only one that did not fully match my expectations from a high end bakery. The tiramisu was decent, more cream-forward and lighter on the coffee flavor than I expected. Overall, these pastries are definitely on the sweeter, cream-based side, and honestly, that is exactly what made them so good to me. I do not want desserts to be less sweet, I want them to feel indulgent and perfect, and these did. I will absolutely keep going back, especially for the lavender, chocolate, and pistachio pastries.

Instead, he recommended the *Creamtella* and their matcha beverages. I was absolutely blown away; who would have thought that *Cheesetella's matcha drinks would be this delicious?! There is a wide selection of matcha drinks available in-store. The owner mentioned that they use high-quality matcha (I'm guessing he meant ceremonial grade?), and he even showed me their preparation process--specifically how they whisk it to achieve that smooth, "mirror-like" finish! Matcha Einspanner Personally, I prefer this kind of simple flavor profile: matcha blended with a rich, thick cream topping. It offers a satisfyingly subtle tea aroma with every sip--a true delight for any matcha enthusiast! Strawberry Matcha w/ Pistachio Cream If you love strawberries and enjoy sweet flavors, you'll likely enjoy this one. However, since I'm not personally a huge fan of the combination of strawberry jam and matcha, I felt just "okay" about it--though it is a tasty drink! The pistachio cream topping definitely earns some extra points here! Creamtella The combination of cream and cake gave me a whole new appreciation for their pastries. The cream perfectly counteracts the cake's tendency to be a bit dry; together, they make for a truly perfect pairing! You absolutely *must* give this a try!! It gets a huge thumbs-up from me! Chocotella This one is fairly standard and straightforward. The small chocolate pieces add a nice textural element, and the flavor is a definite plus--especially if you're a chocolate lover! However, the cake itself leans a bit toward the drier side--much like their original plain flavor (which is why I still highly recommend going for the versions with added cream!) To be honest, the first time I tried their cakes, I wasn't particularly impressed. Later, I saw posts suggesting that heating them up before eating makes them taste much better. But this time, the *Creamtella* truly blew me away, completely changing my opinion of the brand. And the matcha drinks are just the icing on the cake! The owner is genuinely a wonderful person--so friendly and enthusiastic! Since it's just him and one other employee working in the shop, making the drinks takes a little time, so please be patient! ^_^

I had expected the business to be in a more high volume area, however a benefit of their corner spot was that the parking lot had plenty of spaces. There's no indoor seating, but outdoor tables were set up along the north and east perimeters of the building. I was by myself at this latest visit, and it was close to the end of the day so the inventory was quite depleted. There was no line at all which was not a surprise. The famous Strawberry Croissants and prepackaged items were on refrigerated display to the left when you walked in. As the service counter rounded a corner, there were more fresh baked goods on display before you reached a register. Across from the registers were shelves containing bags of fresh bread products. I bought a Strawberry Croissant, a Sticky Bun, a Ham and Cheese Croissant, and an Apple Croissant. The quality of the pastry dough was very good, and I could see why the Strawberry Croissant was a favorite with the customers. The croissants were light and flakey, and the powdered sugar added a delicate topping to the strawberry version. If I were to rate on just the Strawberry Croissant, then it would be five stars. My overall rating was downgraded because of the customer traffic flow. The lines can be optimized so that if you wanted to buy a six-pack of the Strawberry Croissants and/or anything prepackaged, then a separate queue should be arranged for those customers. The cafeteria trays were of limited use if you were not getting a large number of items. As you advanced in the queue, other products had to be requested from a worker behind the counter and then those were not placed on the tray. Ultimately, I think they can configure the operation to more efficiently handle the higher volume periods of the day.
