Love this vending machine concept! Super unique and convenient. You pay first then grab everything you'd like! There's a digital menu, wooden spoons, bags, and dehydrated coconut shavings. Grab and go, chilled and ready to each. There's a decent variety of flavors and I really enjoyed everything I grabbed! Love fresh fruit, so the mango and strawberry was a must. Black sesame was yummy too, not too sweet! Really love how late it opens and is fresh. The coconut really helps differentiate this brand from others! Love the little astronaut mascot too. Highly recommend! read more

Not as good as melo Melo. The texture is a lot more thick than melo melo and they don't have that many good flavours compared to melo melo. Overall if you've tried melo melo this doesn't even come close but if you are trying this kokonut first then it's still decent I just have high standards because I love melo melo read more

Pretty good! Been coming here a few times now to try different flavors and I've enjoyed it. What I've gotten: -Mango: Mango was good. Some pieces were riper than others, leading to slight difference in texture. -Strawberry: Strawberries were fairly tart. Good balance between the sweeter but mild coconut pudding. -Peach Gum: Good flavor and well balanced. At times, it tasted a bit like those small chinese apples. Only thing is, if you aren't a fan of goopy and viscous texture, this might be strange for you. -Matcha Red Bean: This one doesn't have the plain white coconut pudding layer. Instead, it's red bean on the bottom, and matcha coconut pudding on top. Matcha was light and red bean provided some texture. Not bad but not as memorable as the others I think. The texture is most like a very soft tofu, slightly jiggly but not as much as Melo Melo in my opinion. Both have their own good aspects. I did like that Kokonut includes some crunchy toasted coconut flakes for added texture and flavor to the experience. Packaging is nice. Spoons included. The shop and parking: The first time I came here during covid, customers were not allowed inside, but you are now allowed to walk in to the front of their kitchen. They are located in an unassuming, industrial area within a shared building with various kitchens from other businesses; they have a wall outside with the names posted of each. The last time I arrived, my friend and I walked to the counter with a menu posted. A lady came out explaining the promotion they were running (they have these sometimes so check their IG!) and then we were able to place our order and pay through an iPad. We waited about 5 minutes for them to prep and package everything. It was a quick experience despite it being crowded. There were no tables inside from what we saw but some customers were enjoying their desserts out front. Parking has never been an issue for me. Overall: Refreshing desserts. Would come back but most likely during promos as they lean towards the pricier side. read more

these desserts are BEYOND delicious and satisfy the late night sugar cravings!! love the ease of access with their automated fridges!

This was my first time coming here. The coconut dessert is phenomenal & it's cute that it comes in a jar. They have four earth flavors & 5 outer space flavors. The service was fast & employee is nice and friendly. The store is clean, nice, and spacious. I would definitely come back here to try their other flavors! read more

KOKONUT - Sweetened Toasted Coconut Flakes & Mixed Fruit - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Costa Mesa, California

Came here because it was close by. I thought this was a sit down dessert place, but turns out it's just a grab and go. I tried to tap my phone to pay, but the door never opened and got charged $1 anyway. No workers were available either. Disappointed. read more

KOKONUT - Don't trust this machine. It steals your money and the door won't open lol. - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Costa Mesa, California

The definition of a light, refreshing dessert. I love that they have both fruit and non-fruit toppings as your add-on options depending on what you're craving. I tried out one of each because there's nothing wrong with having the best of both worlds. First up: Mango Pudding. I was happy that the mango was ripe and juicy unlike the one I bought at the market the other day which was hard and a bit sour. It paired really nicely with the coconut pudding because it added that bit of sweetness to elevate the natural flavor of the pudding. Next up: Black Sesame Pudding. The black sesame was very mellow and honestly a new favorite of mine. If you're feeling simple though, you can even just get the original coconut pudding in its purest form. read more

KOKONUT - Black Sesame Pudding & Mango Pudding - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Costa Mesa, California

Let me start just by saying this place is a hidden gem. I came on a Thursday night seeking a healthy dessert option. I was quickly greeted by the owner of the business herself. She was super kind and friendly and answered all of the questions I had about the place. She did mention this location was the flagship store so I got to take a look inside cooking area. Everything seemed to be fresh and clean which is always satisfying to see. I ended up getting the strawberry kokonut. The strawberry kokonut comes in a cute package with some delicious coconut flakes to accompany the dessert. The dessert itself is unlike anything any desserts I've had in this area. The coconut flavor is so authentic it almost feels like eating real coconut meat, expect without the hard rubbery meat. The desserts is also not too sweet, dairy free, and vegan. If I could give this place a six stars, I would. I will for sure be back!! read more

I love the coconut-fruit pudding dessert trend! I tried Kokonut after trying Melo Melo in Ktown and found the textures of the puddings to be completely different. Kokonut's pudding is most similar to soft tofu or jello pudding while Melo Melo is most like Hawaiian haupia filling (slightly grainy, w/o the gelatin texture). I prefer Melo Melo, but that's just a personal preference. The service here, however, was fantastic. I sampled ALL the flavors before purchasing and the mango was cut fresh for my order (and presumably for every order). Parking is super easy in the complex. No real seating available for guest since this is mostly a to-go location. read more

Came here with friends while on vacation here and we really wanted to come and try it since it was unique and we don't have something like this where we are from. The desert bar is inside a building so it may be confusing at first but outside there is a sign and the moment you enter you can see the menu. There is also a good amount of parking so you don't have to worry about stressing to find a parking spot. We want to thank Suzanne who was so kind and brought out a sampler of all of the flavors and explained it all to us. She was so sweet ! So 5/5 for service ! Flavor wise it's dependent on what you usually like but my personal favorite was the mango one which the fruit was just so sweet and juicy! 4/5 since I didn't like all of the flavors but I recommend trying them before counting them out ! Definitely recommend if you're in the area read more

Cute start-up dessert bar after eating lunch in Irvine with family! Food: 4/5 + Mixed Fruit Pudding The pudding comes in a very cute packaging: a plastic jar and a bag that keeps the pudding cold/fresh if you have to take it to-go. I thought the coconut blended well with the mixed fruits (watermelon, blueberry, mango, strawberry) and was at a delicious level of sweetness that was light, airy, and not too sugary. It was certainly nostalgic and brought be back to times when my grandma would make me coconut pudding. My only gripe would be the price point: for $8.50, the pudding is something I can make at home given instant packaging from my local Ranch 99 market. I think if the price was reduced slightly ($5-6) or the jar made bigger, it would be much more worth it. Service: 3/5 It's located inside Duke Bakery, which has a very small parking lot. The location is a bit odd and the workers were not that friendly or accommodating. It was my first time coming here and I was they have more introduction about the flavors and things I could add. It wasn't until I started reading the reviews that I found out you can buy coconut flakes to put on top! read more

Had my first experience with Kokonut at a Cherry Blossom event in HB, and from the get-go, the person who helped was very welcoming and friendly :) Tastewise: 5/5 Peach + pineapple pudding * Refreshing and light dessert (great for those who doesn't have a sweet-tooth)! * Reusuable cute containers (great succulent pot once you drill drainage holes on the bottom) Service: 5/5 You can try sampling other flavors if you're unsure on which to choose! Overall impression: Will return to try other flavors! Seems like their mango one is a popular hit read more

KOKONUT - Peach - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Costa Mesa, California

This place was honestly so hard to find. It's in like a building unit instead of it's own store so keep an eye out when you're searching! For the price, the portions are very small. You also need to eat it right away when it's fresh or it won't have the quality taste. It also comes in a packaging that allows it to remain cold if you were taking it home. There's really no seating there so unless you're planning to eat in the car, make sure you take it home ASAP! read more

KOKONUT - Black Sesame - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Costa Mesa, California

The service was great! We came late at night after dinner and it was pretty empty, but plenty of areas to sit and eat. It was a little chilly out so we ate it in our car. We ordered the coffee kokonut and the sesame kokonut. For both, the coconut flavor fell a little short. I have tried another location called melo melo and that flavor shone through, no matter what our mix/flavor. I do however love the toasted coconut packets they give to sprinkle on. The flavor was intense and crispy, a nice contrast to the kokonut creamy jello. The flavor of the coffee was good! Tasted like a Vietnamese coffee, nice and sweet but not too sweet. The sesame was what really fell short for me. The black sesame was very mild, and the coconut was Mild. It really felt more like a plain pudding. Still lightly sweet and texture was nice . read more

KOKONUT - Peach pudding! - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Costa Mesa, California

Ever since trying coconut pudding for the first time, I need to get it if I'm in the area. KOKONUT is located in an unassuming business area - we were a bit confused upon arriving but found the doors leading to the front eventually. The person who helped us was really helpful in asking question and finding flavors that we liked. Apparently they make all the puddings at this location and distribute it! I got the mango coconut pudding, which comes with a healthy topping of fresh mango pieces. The pudding was silky and flavorful, and the mango was sweet - a great pairing. It also comes with coconut flakes on the side which adds a yummy crunchy texture. Branding is adorable with the lil' astronaut. read more

Black sesame is so very good! This was my first time trying their offerings and it lives up to the hype. It's just the right amount of sweetness and the black sesame flavor isn't too subtle or too overbearing. It was just right. The crispy coconut bits balanced out the texture and added a bit more sweetness too. The setup makes it so easy to pick out your flavors and pay. Some of their flavors include matcha, coffee, peach, peach with a jelly layer, black sesame, and original. read more

The location was hard to find. You have to ring a door bell on the wall and the employee will come out to take your order. There is no outside sitting so you would need to take your order home to enjoy. I ordered the mango with coconut pudding $9.50. It comes in a small jar with fresh mango on top of the coconut pudding. The mango pieces were medium sweet. It is good but $9.50 is kind of pricey. I would recommend it to give it a try. Plenty of parking in the lot. read more

KOKONUT - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Costa Mesa, California

This is where I go to get my coconut pudding fix. Normally I just get their stuff from the bakery, either in Santa Ana or Irvine - depending if I'm near by. But today, the bakery had limited supplies so I decided to go to the main branch. What a hidden location, but it is very cute and artsy once you enter. The decoration is very cute. The counter is a bit tight. It's more of the place where you just do take out. It was a little hard to find and since it is dark with no open signs, I thought it was closed. The worker was very nice and polite. He gave use samples to try. I love the ones with fruits. The cold brew was really good as well. I didn't take any picture of the pudding but it's exactly as advertised. read more

KOKONUT - The place: hidden gem. - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Costa Mesa, California

I love their coconut pudding so much!! I order delivery from here through Doordash very often and am always pleased. They package everything so nicely and the presentation is beautiful! When my order arrived at my door, it was in a special cooler bag. I appreciated that because it stayed fresh and cold. I've tried several flavors of their pudding, including peach gum, various fruits, matcha, and coffee, and my favorite so far is the mixed fruit or the peach. Yum! The puddings are so light and not too sweet, and the little toasted coconut packet they provide to put on top adds a crunch to it which is the perfect complement. I love the pure, minimal ingredients that they use. It feels like a "healthier" dessert but tastes amazing!! I also love the cups that the puddings come in and reuse them all the time. This is such a solid dessert! read more

It was a little confusing when we arrived. They're located in a shared space which is listed on their Yelp and site. Found it easily but didn't realize you are supposed to ring the bell for them. After someone let us know, it was smooth sailing. We ordered, paid, and got our cups right away. I didn't know what to expect with coconut pudding but it sounded refreshing and would be a lighter option for dessert. The coconut pudding itself is so good. Just sweet enough and filled with actual coconut flavor. The mango was very ripe and that cup would be a great beach or poolside eat on a very hot day. The taro & red bean cup is delicious after you mix it. Once it is mixed, you get the sweetness from the coconut pudding. That one was my favorite. It reminded me a little of halo halo because of the beans. I will definitely be back. I want to get the coconut cup itself and add my own fruit and even try it with dark chocolate. Can't wait to eat this for breakfast too. One cup is fairly large and can easily be eaten in two to three sitting. Some reviews mention it's not sweet at all. There is sweetness from the coconut and if you get a fruit topping. However, their slogan has the phrase 50% sweet...this is not your crazy induced sugar fest snack. If you want a snack instead of a typical yogurt or an açaí bowl, give this a try. read more

KOKONUT - Coconut Pudding w/ Mango and Coconut Pudding with Red Bean and Taro - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Costa Mesa, California

I've never had coconut pudding before, so this was a unique experience. I tried their sesame and matcha flavors, and both were very tasty (especially with the coconut flakes on top). These lasted a few days in the fridge and were great to snack on, and they are a lot healthier than your typical desserts which is a plus. It did have a weird aftertaste in my opinion, but I'm going off of no past experience eating pudding like this so there is really nothing that I can compare it with. It's definitely an acquired taste and obviously you need to like coconut and pudding textures (which I do!). read more

KOKONUT - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Costa Mesa, California

I was introduced to Kokonut during a yelp event couple months ago and finally had a chance to purchase more flavors when I was in OC recently. It's located inside an office building with bunch of other restaurants in it. There were plenty of seating area by the outdoor patio. They also decorated the area with some pretty nice artworks and paintings. I ordered their matcha, peach, and taro kokonut pudding flavors. I really loved the fact that it was dairy free and they used natural ingredients/fresh fruits for each of their flavors. The pudding had adequate amount of sweetness that balanced out flavors from the fruits. Each pudding also came with a packet of coconut flakes. I highly recommended to add them to your pudding because the flakes gave out a crunchy and toasted coconut flavors to it :) read more

Was glad that I was able to buy @ 3 Am in the morning. The taste was super creamy and rich. The texture was amazing it was all fresh and I didn't have any complaints. I'm a big sucker for black sesame and it was everything I wanted. read more

I've never thought coconut puddings are delicious and that they complement well with fresh fruit. Kokonut Dessert Bar is located in a cloud/ghost kitchen with ring camera/doorbell outside for them to take your order. WHAT I GOT: Coconut Pudding With Watermelon - the pudding's consistency is thick and creamy, it had the right amount of sweetness and the watermelon was super refreshing. Love that they used fresh and real fruit for it. Coconut Pudding With Peach Gum - coconut pudding is the same but the peach gum wasn't my cup of tea. It was good but it's just not my thing. I know this is one of the most popular items on their menu, so if yoy end up liking it, good for you. The employees/probably the owners were super friendly and amazing. If you like coconut pudding and fresh fruits, give them a try! read more

KOKONUT - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Costa Mesa, California

The good: I tried the strawberry coconut jelly, mixed fruit coconut jelly, and the taro with peach gum and milk coconut jelly. The first two are dairy free. The packaging is super cute. You get a "space capsule" Ziplock/tamper-evident bag with the plastic jars of coconut jelly inside. Inside is also a mini bag of shredded coconut and a spoon. I think the high price of the food is due to this spectacularly extra packaging. This a great light dessert option that wont leave you feeling as guilty for indulging in dessert. The bad: The place is hard to locate, particularly at night (like when we came). There isn't a big sign announcing where it is and it's located in a business area. The windows are tinted so it doesn't look like there's a dessert shop near here. It's a business building where folks can rent out kitchen spaces. There's no outdoor dining/patio space but there was a picnic bench in the parking lot around the corner. It's around $10/coconut jelly so it's on the pricy side. The interesting: I've tried other coconut jelly places and this one is less sweet compared to the others. This is a plus for me but it can be negative for others. I think they should have named the place "Coconaut" since it seems like their logo/mascot is an astronaut guy. read more

KOKONUT - Coconut Pudding w/ Strawberry & Honey Peach Gum with Taro and Milk - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Costa Mesa, California

We tried the Cold Brew flavor and it tastes AMAZING; lightly sweetened and refreshing with very smooth texture like panna cotta. However, it's pricy for a take out dessert at $10.5 for 6 OZ jar, which is why I did not give it 5 stars. The packaging is cool but perhaps there's an opportunity to lower product cost by switching to a different packaging. Either way I wish the business best of luck, they have a great product but sadly I won't be a regular customer due to cost. read more

I did the dumb and got the red bean with taro at this place. I did not like it at all and didn't feel like asking for something different. Unless you know you like it I would only suggest getting things with sweet fruits. My friends Mango one was delicious and made me regret even more. To add, this place is within a building with other food services. No seating. I would say this place is very hidden unless you have been here before. My rating is a 1 star for Red Bean/ Taro vs. 4 star Mango, plus 1 star for presentation. read more

This place is so bomb!! We came during covid times, they kept safe measures and took our orders from outside the store and we waited outside and got our orders fairly quick. We came on a Saturday afternoon and there was no wait. Parking is very easy in this plaza and service was very good. We ordered two mango coconut puddings and a mixed fruit. They come in very cute jars we decided to keep as well as in a cute ziplock packaging. The coconut pudding and fruit were so refreshing. I don't really like too much American desserts because they are overly sweet for me, I tend to like lighter asian dessert and this was very light and refreshing which I loved!! It felt healthy and not too heavy. The mango were sweet and fresh and mixed fruit had watermelon, strawberries, and blueberries. Would definitely come back for dessert!!! read more

If you're crazy for coconuts you can't go wrong here! Specializing in coconut pudding, Kokonut is a place that offers a great selection of desserts that are healthier and refreshing. The coconuts will definitely give you that tropical vibe which is fun since we shouldn't be traveling at the moment. My favorite was the strawberry coconut pudding with the use of fresh fruit. The coconut flakes are definitely needed to provide extra coconut flavor as well as a nice crunchy texture to balance the smooth pudding. The strawberries were not too sweet or sour and really complemented the subtle coconut flavor of the pudding. My only feedback would be that I wish there was more of the fresh coconut flavor in the pudding itself instead of relying on the toasted coconut flakes. The price is also a bit on the high side but I do understand that they're using real fruit. Service was great and all you have to do is ring the bell outside and someone will come out to assist you! If you're looking for a new dessert or snack to try, this is perfect for those days where you want something more chill. If you're in the area you should try it out as it's a pretty enjoyable experience. read more
