Really cute dessert spot with a cozy, playful vibe that instantly puts you in a good mood. The…read moreplace is filled with adorable little details and toys, which makes it feel more like a fun hangout than just a dessert shop. We tried the mango sago dessert and the double skin milk with fresh fruit--both were super fresh, not overly sweet, and had that comforting homemade texture. The mango was ripe and fragrant, and the milk pudding was silky and smooth. Drinks were also a nice surprise, especially the creamy ones like avocado milk. Rich but still easy to drink, not heavy or artificial tasting. Service was friendly and patient, even when it got a bit busy. Everything came out quickly and nicely presented. Overall, a great spot if you're craving traditional-style Chinese desserts with a modern, cute twist. Perfect for a casual sweet treat or a chill afternoon stop.

First time here, went with the pandan mango sticky rice mochi dessert…read more Chewie and Mellow has a small location in this plaza with limited seating. Counter service and kiosk ordering is available. Heard mixed things from friends who come here often (quality can be hit or miss), so keeping expectations in check. But this dessert was solid: pandan jelly, mango, and sticky rice all had a really nice chew to them, and the coconut milk on top kept everything light instead of heavy. Not overly sweet at all, which made it perfect after a meal nearby. Will be back to see if the rest of the menu holds up the same way.

Amazing service and the bread is very soft! Please go here…read morewhen you are in the need for cheesetella

Handel's provides that old school nostalgic taste of what ice cream is supposed to taste like…read more There are dozens and dozens of flavors to choose from but I went with the classic Rocky road while others in my part got the sampler and chocolate scoops. Each bite gives you that hearty satisfaction of what ice cream should be all along. The Rocky road was dense but very welcomed for my taste. Each scoop is packed with intense flavor and leaves you wanting for more. I strive to try every flavor they have to offer so I will return. This location is located in the market place on Jamboree (Irvine side) by the Edward's regal theater. Perfect date spot. Dinner, movie, and ice cream.

I was there a…read morelittle later in the evening so it seems like a very popular spot with a lot of folks coming out of bars or just getting a snack before going to other late night spots. The people here were really friendly. I knew I wanted the churros and the menu is pretty streamlined, but there are a few options (like with ice cream etc) I got a single churro, which was pretty large, especially for a decent price. I also got some chocolate dipping sauce to go with it. It was a wonderful treat and such a great spot to grab and go.

What's not to like? They do it well…read more We got the 5 + 2 traditional pack and added a side of vanilla ice cream and chocolate dip. There are no complaints on my end. I loved every bit of it whether I ate it plain, as is, or with a dab of ice cream, with the hot and cold contrast. They were so good. The only thing I'll add is I wish they had more ways to wash your hands. There's 1 restroom for staff and customers so there can be a wait. One of the workers dropped a deuce and it took extra long to wait. Other than that it's a happening place and I'd gladly go back over and over again.

I've been a fan of Melo Melo for a while now and have visited a few of their locations. Anytime I'm…read morenearby, I always make it a point to stop in and grab a few jars to go because they're just that good. This Irvine location is actually the biggest one I've been to so far. They have a full drink menu, plenty of seating, and the whole space is super cute and Instagram-worthy. It's a great spot to hang out and enjoy your dessert instead of just grabbing it to go. The staff was incredibly friendly, and I loved that they let us sample some of the desserts before deciding what to buy. It's honestly hard to choose because everything looks amazing. Some of my favorites are the Mango River, Mango Coconut, Avocado, and Double Coconut. They're all so fresh, light, and packed with flavor. One of the things I love most about Melo Melo is that their desserts don't feel overly sweet or heavy. They're made fresh without preservatives, and compared to a lot of other desserts, they feel like a healthier option that I can enjoy without the guilt. Needless to say, I went a little overboard and left with two bags filled with eight jars of deliciousness. No regrets! I'll definitely be back the next time I'm in the area.

The shop is super minimalistic, bright with cute decor. Service is friend and prompt, drinks come out quickly. We got the cloud matcha latte and creme brûlée ice coffee. Their matcha is ceremonial grade which is a plus. Theres a choice between matcha cream or vanilla sea salt cream with the cloud matcha. We got it with vanilla sea salt cream and it was the perfect combo! So delicious. The crème brûlée iced coffee is so good too! I was a little worried that it might be too sweet but not at all! Was recommended by friends to try their fruity blended drinks. Will have to come back and try those too!

The store's logo is so cute! We toyed around getting 2 drinks since we aren't near this place and we can always save a drink for the next day. 1. Passion Fruit Smash & Tea Jelly- Pretty tasty drink, we do love tea jellies. I did not love all of the passion fruit seeds, but I guess that equates to freshness. Tea jellies were pretty good. 5/5 2. Green Grape Smash & Tea Jelly - my niece noted they liked this drink, they would get it again. 5/5 3. Thai Milk Tea - Brown Sugar boba - the tea was alright, it tasted like the standard Thai Tea to me, the color was uber orange, but I felt like the tea flavor was weak. The boba were soft and chewy. 3/5 4. Coconut Mango Pomelo & Tea Jelly- My niece got this drink and they said it was delicious. They would order it again. 5/5 5. Grapefruit smash with Tea jelly- My sister said this drink was yummy (very refreshing) and she was a fan of the tea jellies. 5/5 The staff were dressed so cute, we love the Jam Jam lab logo.
