    S1. Mango Sticky Rice with Coconut Milk
    Maggie H.

    This is my first time at Icy Melon, which is where the MangoMango in the Hmart plaza was originally before it moved next to the Lua and Kira Revolving Sushi. There may be limited parking near the restaurant but the plaza parking lot is large in size. The menu has a pretty good variety of desserts from crepe cakes to hot stuff. Service is straightforward because you order on the kiosk and then take a seat. Someone will bring the dessert to you, but I'm not sure how they know which order goes to what table. I got the mango sticky rice, which was light and yummy. The foam made from coconut milk really tied the dish all together with the fresh mango and rice at the bottom. The rice should have been warmer almost hot in order to bring it all together. It was lukewarm at best and more grainy than other places. We got the signature crepe with strawberries and banana with melon ice cream. I haven't had melon ice cream in a while so it was a pleasant treat. It does taste kind of artificial esp with the color. The crepe was thin, but the Nutella filling was thick and overpowering. So the crepe was overwhelmingly chocolately. Maybe go for vanilla ice cream to balance that.

    E1. Coconut Mango Smoothie

    Cute dessert bar with a lot of different options. On the menu they have ice creams, bubble teas, sago, crepes, and hot teas. The cashier was polite and quick and they also have a self checkout kiosk. There's a lot on the menu that I've never tried and would love to come back to try. I got a coconut mango drink that was both sweet and refreshing.

    We stopped by Icy Melon to get some chocolate sundae for take out. The store is spotless, very nice clean interior with lots of decorative items. Menu has all sorts of dessert items like waffle, fruity ice bowl, sticky sweet rice, crepe, smoothie and tea. There's a kiosk you order yourself. We got our order within five minutes. It was in a beautiful watermelon print thermal bag. Very impressive that they give out such nice bags instead of cheap plastic bags. The chocolate sundae was delicious. There was two scoops with Oreo crumbles and a wafer. My five year old was thrilled to have the whole thing by herself.

    Food was great . Got a fruit bowl with ice cream and lychee green tea. Both were delicious. The atmosphere and service are ok... I'm not sure if the bowl is the correct name

    E5. Coconut Cantaloupe Smoothie
    Jessica Z.

    I still agree with my previous review however this is the second time they got my order wrong. The first time was a year or two ago as they made the wrong smoothie. Today, they forgot to add boba when I specifically request and paid for boba. It was a to-go order with three drinks and had left before seeing there was no boba. I would still go back in the future but be warned that you should double check your order is complete and accurate before you leave.

    The fruit dishes here are so refreshing. It feels like you are getting healthier the more you eat it but it's also a sweet treat! Would definitely grab something again if i'm in the area. The service was quick and timely. It was pretty empty when i went there but it's really clean in there which is always a good sign.

    H1. Black Sesame Paste Soup
    Elizabeth S.

    It was ok. The interior is very nice and they took over Mango Mango, which was originally in this location. I think there is new ownership. Service was fast. We only tried one thing and it was underwhelming. It tastes like zhi ma hu, which is something easy to make in Chinese culture with some sesame paste powder. It also reminded my friend of Chinese tang yuan, which are soup balls with black sesame inside. I would have preferred tang yuan. The taste was very mild, though I did appreciate that they had these mochi balls inside.

    So this place used to be a mango mango dessert shop. We came in the middle of the day and there was only one other group. We were sat down immediately and then the waiter went to the cash register to have a meeting with other employees about shifts for the week. It went on for a while so we had to go to the register to order our food. We got our food very fast after that. The menu is very similar to mango mango- if not the same. All the same dishes. I was disappointed that the mango chunks seemed overripe and not fresh. That was very unappetizing for me. The place itself is very spacious and bright. It is located in a large plaza with other Asian restaurants.

    Sign for mango mango is gone
    Hank C.

    A replacement for the Mango Mango at this location - similar desserts, but not the same amount of mango or care that goes into the items. Menu was a little difficult to decipher ingredients in case you have allergies, so ask the servers. The sign outside is gone, not yet replaced. Two locations - Hoboken and this one, so not sure if the one in Hoboken was also a Mango Mango or if it was just an Icy Melon before. The sign inside still has the mangomango as a wifi password, too.

    C2. Mango Crepe Cake  this was alright but ive had better
    alaina l.

    the food was alright to be honest, i was trying it because i was in the area but i can find better desserts at other places, the dessert i got looked waaayyy different than the picture online so i was not satisfied. the service was okay to be honest, maybe because there's no AC it felt icky in there, 5/10 it was good for a first try but i wouldn't go back

    Great place with absolutely delicious food and beautiful decor. Loved the mango shaved ice and the lychee green tea. Service is prompt and convenient

    C2. Mango Crepe Cake
    Neil M.

    Mango crepe cake was perfect. Exactly what I needed after Schezuan food (I probably didn't need more food but you only live once, as the saying goes).

    So this place definitely needs to get a bigger location because there was an actual line outside waiting to be seated. Sooooo, after having the desert for the first time I totally understand why people decided to wait. The desert is absolutely delicious. It's made when you order, the fruit is fresh, ice cream is phenomenal and dough is indescribable. My only issue was the mountain of whip cream but honestly that's my preference. Definitely check this place out!!!!!!!!

Love coming here and seeing people from toddler age to folks with their grandparents. Bubble tea is for all! My husband loves to try the new fruity varieties that get added to the menu. Every few weeks there is a new, unique fruit combination that blows him away. I stick to my tried and true Thai iced tea with boba, and NOWHERE else has been able to compete. The details are what makes this place stand out. If you buy multiple drinks, they place your order in an adorable, reusable purple bag. Also, there is a rewards program. So if you're an avid boba drinker, make sure you sign up. Every few orders you can score a free bite to eat or bubble tea. Since it's a hit spot, this place can get packed at peak times (post work hours, and especially on weekends). So happy to have such a lovely shop in my town. Thanks, Akihi!

The inside was very different from your usual bubble tea spot, and it was very welcoming and cozy. I could definitely see myself just chilling and reading a book while enjoying my food and drink. I placed my order through the kiosk while looking over the menu, which had a lot of good options. I couldn't make up my mind and decided to go with the bubble tea and Oreo waffle crepe. Both items were good, and I enjoyed the waffle, which had ice cream as the filling and was stuffed with fillings, but it was a little difficult to eat since the wrapper is not very practical, and I had to use my hands, so it got a bit messy. Did I regret it? No way, I loved it; hopefully, they would just have a better container for it, lol. Definitely will get a sugar rush, so be careful hahaha. I would definitely go back to try the other flavors

Clearly a model that works.

    Meet Fresh is a Taiwanese dessert shop specializing in traditional Chinese-style sweet dessert…read moresoups--comforting bowls built around ingredients such as red beans, sago, grass jelly, purple rice, tofu pudding, and almond. These desserts are common across Taiwan and much of East Asia, where sweet soups serve the role that cakes or pastries might in the West: a warm or cooling treat at the end of a meal or as an afternoon snack. The brand itself originated in Taichung, Taiwan, where it began as a small family shop inspired by traditional dessert recipes passed down through generations. Today Meet Fresh has expanded internationally, but the menu remains rooted in those classic Taiwanese dessert traditions. The menu includes hot and cold dessert soups, along with bubble teas, specialty drinks, ice creams, shaved ice desserts, and egg waffles--served plain or with a variety of fillings. I stopped in for a bowl of their Combo A hot red bean soup, topped with taro balls, fragrant red beans, crunchy peanuts, and soft, chewy boba. I also ordered a hot almond milk. For those unfamiliar with it, red bean soup is one of the classic desserts of Chinese and Taiwanese cuisine. Made from adzuki beans simmered until soft, it has a naturally earthy sweetness that is comforting without being overly sugary. It's often served hot in cooler weather and chilled in summer. The bowl here was generous and piping hot, exactly what you want from a dessert soup. The sweetness was well balanced--sweet, but not cloying--and the toppings added layers of texture that kept each spoonful interesting. The taro balls are another Taiwanese specialty: chewy dumplings made from taro and sweet potato starch with a texture somewhere between mochi and gnocchi. These were nicely elastic and pleasantly chewy. The peanuts added crunch, while the boba pearls brought their familiar soft chew, making the bowl a fun mix of textures. The hot almond milk was fragrant and soothing. In Chinese dessert culture this type of almond drink is often made from apricot kernels (sometimes called "Chinese almonds"), which gives it a slightly different aroma than Western almond milk. This one was very tasty, though it leaned a bit sweeter than I personally prefer. Service was pleasant and efficient, and the shop has ample seating, making it easy to sit and enjoy your dessert rather than rushing out the door. For anyone curious about Taiwanese desserts--or simply looking for something beyond cakes and pastries--Meet Fresh offers a comforting introduction to a whole world of sweet soups, chewy toppings, and traditional dessert flavors. I would happily return to explore more of the menu.

I'd recommend creating a custom dessert for what I felt like is better value, and coming at an off-hour due to the difficulty of finding parking in the plaza. --- Meet Fresh has a wide variety of desserts available: -Pudding & Q Mochi Milk Shaved Ice (L)- I shared it between 4 people, and while it was a good size and I enjoyed the toppings, personally it felt too expensive for the amount of ice! I would be on the fence reordering this. -Signature Grass Jelly (hot)- This came with a side of peanuts. For the relatively expensive signature grass jelly dish, I was a bit disappointed at the ratio of grass jelly to toppings. I would pass next time. -Custom icy grass jelly with 5 toppings [sesame rice balls, taro ball, ice cream, sago, and Q mochi (taro mochi)]- This came with a side of creamer. I really enjoyed both the flavor and toppings in the custom icy grass jelly!! The ratio of toppings was better for sure, but it is a more expensive option. I'd probably still go for this option next time. The restaurant is more or less self-service. It is self-seating. You first order at the kiosk or counter, and then retrieve your order once your number is called. Later, you take your tray and clean up yourself. The interior can seat fairly large groups, maybe 20-40 people total depending on how you sit. One of the biggest obstacles to enjoying Meet Fresh is finding parking in the hectic and overcrowded parking lot. I'd find it hard to justify fighting to find parking for Meet Fresh until I had something else to also do in the plaza. Overall, our group had pretty mixed ratings, but I thoroughly enjoyed it. I'd recommend coming when you're willing to splurge on a custom dessert creation.
