    Ube Soft Serve,  Soft Soft-Serve Ice Cream (Matcha), Soft Ice Cream (Vanilla)
    Nali G.

    The matcha soft serve was so gooood but as for anything else matcha... it falls flat for me. The soft serves were great but I personally wasn't a fan of any of their drinks. The service is standard and the place is small and tucked away in a plaza. I would recommend getting their soft serve!

    I tried the matcha soft serve and overall thought it was pretty solid. I liked how big the portion was, and the matcha flavor was very strong and tasty. However, the consistency of the soft serve had more of a sorbet texture than an ice cream one, so I do wish it was creamier and less icy. However, service was great and there is a lot of indoor and outdoor seating.

    I have Matcha Cafe Maiko bookmarked for a while. It is located at Atlantic Time Square. The cafe has indoor seating. I like the Japanese art around. The cafe has cozy vibes. They have a high quality matcha and many matcha drinks for matcha lovers. The menu includes hot drinks, tea , latte , kokuto jelly drinks, frappe, shaved ice, soft- serve ice cream, parfait, float, and more. We ordered strawberry Matcha latte and Banana Matcha Latte. We got the large size for an extra dollar. We paid $21.32 for two dinks including tax. The drinks are kind of pricey, but the quality was good. The service was very fast. Yes! I will come back to try other drinks or ice cream

    Always watery. Blaming this on the machine instead of fixing it.

    If I can leave a zero star, I would. The cones were very watery and the matcha floats had no flavor with too much ice. I've heard too many times the machine was not working properly therefore the cones were watery. Stop the excuses if they want to remain in business. Fix the machine and live up to the premium matcha name.

    10/10 Ube and Matcha soft serve swirl - Omg this is literally perfection right here. The aesthetics, the combination of flavors, and the crunchy, delicious cone!! I love this spot. I've never been to a location I haven't liked. Cost - $8.29

    Right next to my favorite Hawaiian restaurant, it was hot, so we decided to try the matcha/vanilla swirl soft serve. It was good -- the vanilla helped smooth out the taste of the matcha. They have lots of other flavors, and it was busy. Shares parking with a large strip mall, and service was quick!

    great service and love the plaza this shop is in! the soft serve was so delicious in the parfait but all the other toppings were okay or tasted bad. did not like the red bean or jellies at all but the cake was decent!

    Enjoyed the ube matcha swirl soft Serve in a cone. Service was okay. There are tables outside to sit and enjoy. Also there are tables inside to the right of the store.

    Matcha Cafe Maiko is a matcha lover's dream. Located in Rowland Heights this place is a dessert heaven. I ordered a matcha float which has matcha ice cream on top. It was delicious and overall I think this is super addicting and refreshing as well. It doesn't taste overly sweet and has a good balance. There were people here at night but the line went by pretty quickly. So if you are craving some matcha and want it in the form of a dessert this is a pretty good spot to come.

    Delicious matcha flavored ice cream at reasonable prices! Big serving sizes that you can definitely share with one other person!

    Love the matcha ice cream... it's bitter not too sweet. You can taste the matcha and for $8 they give you in huge size ice cream in the cup. I feel it's worth it rather than buying matcha latte that you barely can feel the matcha flavor. I recommended it.

    Very delicious ice cream and it's also open late! Very strong matcha flavor so I'm glad I balanced it with the vanilla.

    Such a cute little bakery in Rowland Heights!…read more The coffee buns are super fresh, soft, and fluffy, with that delicious crispy coffee topping. They bake them fresh multiple times throughout the day, and you can definitely tell. I also love that they have several different flavors, so there's something for everyone. I really enjoyed their Matcha Frappuccino too! Just know that it's more like a matcha smoothie than a traditional matcha latte. Don't expect a super strong or intense matcha flavor--it's creamy, refreshing, and still really good! My teenage daughter really liked it too, and she normally doesn't like matcha when the flavor is too strong. And surprisingly, one of my favorite things was the pineapple soft serve! It totally satisfied my Dole Whip craving without having to make a trip to Disneyland. Between the fresh coffee buns, drinks, soft serve, bingsu, and scones, there's a lot to choose from. Definitely a fun little spot to check out in Rowland Heights!

They are made fresh daily and my only regret is not coming sooner so I could have bought more. We also tried their croffle (croissant waffle) which was a nice hot treat as well. They serve pineapple soft serve here which is my son's favorite and they also have milk soft serve! Will definitely be back next time I get my sushi fix next door.

    I saw Sul & Bean on social media, so you know I had to give it a try when I was at Shanghai Plaza…read more My first impression was that it was a little difficult finding a parking spot and figuring out exactly where the shop was. It's tucked away toward the back part of Shanghai Plaza, so it can be easy to miss if you don't know where you're going. Once we finally found it, we walked in and were greeted right away. The place is small, but it's very clean, cozy, and inviting. I could definitely see this being a nice spot to meet up with someone to catch up, or even somewhere to stop by after dinner for a dessert. I ordered the Taro Bingsoo, and if you're a taro fan, this is definitely worth trying. The taro flavor was very noticeable without being overwhelming, with a nutty and slightly floral sweetness that made it really enjoyable. The shaved ice itself was incredibly fluffy and light, and there was enough taro throughout the entire dessert that you got a good amount in almost every bite. The nuts were also a great addition because they gave it a nice crunch and texture against the soft shaved ice. I would definitely recommend sharing the Bingsoo rather than ordering one for yourself. The portion is generous, and there's plenty to go around, especially if you're already coming in after a meal. For the price, I thought it was very reasonable considering the portion and quality. Overall, I really enjoyed my first visit to Sul & Bean. The location was a little tricky to find, but once you get there, it's a nice little dessert spot with a relaxed atmosphere. I'd definitely come back and try another flavor of their Bingsoo next time.

    For a long time, Sul & Beans has been my favorite spot for authentic Korean bingsoo. Their shaved…read moresnow is incredibly light, fluffy, and snow-like, making it melt in your mouth with every bite. I especially love their strawberry cheesecake bingsoo, mango bingsoo, and green tea bingsoo. The portions are generous and are great for sharing. My husband and I always share one flavor per visit. Strawberry cheesecake bingsoo: is a great combination of sweet and tangy, with freshness from the strawberries and richness from the cheesecake bites. Mango bingsoo: tastes delicious, refreshing, and fruity with natural sweetness from the fresh, juicy mango pieces. Green tea bingsoo: has a nice earthy matcha flavor that pairs really well with the sweetness of the red beans and condensed milk. This location in Diamond Plaza has a cozy, casual, and welcoming vibe that makes it a great place to enjoy their desserts. There is a good amount of indoor seating, and the place feels clean.
