We got a Mango Snow Milk which was - $15 I say it's a decent size for shareable. When we came there we saw that there were two workers. Both workers didn't really try to assist or say something until you come up to the register to tell them you are ready to go order. Maybe a little tip for workers that maybe they should ask the people if they have any questions or something they could help. I felt that some sort of training can be nice to workers. The inside is very spacious as what I remember few years back. But it seems like they have less options as before. I gave this a 3 star for maybe have more hospitality training for being FOH. read more

We got the mochi ice cream (mango, strawberry, coffee, red bean) and it was amazing. The mochi was soft and chewy, nothing like the frozen boxed ones at the market. We will definitely be back to try other flavors! read more

The dessert here is not bad! It's just quite average - they don't really specialize/focus in one dessert it's more of a variety dessert shop so good if u want multiple things (they have mochi, shaved snow, ice cream, cakes). We ordered the red bean shaved snow. Snow texture a bit dry with a very faint red bean flavor, although serving size is huge!! Medium definitely can be shared between three people. Ube lava cake is quite small - it was yummy and moist! Multiple tables available for seating. Overall a casual vibe. Service was good and close to a lot of restaurants so easy place to stop by after for desert! Parking also very convenient. read more

Mochi - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Irvine, California

This is such a cute little cafe right in the heart of Irvine. They've got SO many flavors of mochi, gelato that's made in-house, and even Beard Papa's cream puffs! I saw that there was a Dubai chocolate cream puff but didn't get it this time but will have to come back for it. Their matcha drinks are surprisingly really good, we got the double matcha and yuzu matcha tonic, and a strawberry matcha milk snow to share. But OMG this is like blind box heaven. They have so many kinds of Sonny Angels and Smiskis, it was so hard to choose one for my first one! Thanks for reading! ^-^ read more

Delicious dessert cafe at Heritage Plaza. Lots of cream, lots of matcha, and lots of Ube. It's right next to Daiso with indoor and outdoor seating. We needed some mochi ice cream, and they have many really good flavors. I'm sure you've seen the boxed ones at the grocery store with the limited 4 flavors, but once you've had freshly made mochi ice cream in a dozen different flavors, you won't go back to the store bought brands. My favorites are the Mango, Strawberry, and anything with coconut. My man's favorite are the Passion Fruit and Black Sesame. Today I got the chocolate coconut cream one, and I didn't taste coconut, just chocolate, which was just fine with me. The Red Bean one though didn't taste at all like red bean. It actually tasted like strawberry. We even asked for another, and it was the same. It was really good and lightly sweet, but not the taste we were expecting. In any case they are all gooooood! read more

This place shares with Papa Beard. We were in the area and wanna give this place a try to fulfill my crave. The portion is quite 'big' for a small portion. We also ordered Taiyaki (which unfortunately no pic taken). All tasted decent to us, same as another shaved ice place. The stand out factor is the decor which considered quite cozy. Service was straight forward, order when we came and we got called by our receipt number. read more

Tonight I ordered a medium mango shaved ice. Taste overall was good. Topping terrible. They topped it with mochi that was not fresh and hard as a rock. Yuck. Also, for a medium, the size was stingy and only filled up to the top line of the bowl. It was barely a shaved ice "bump". Hello.. Ice shavings do not cost that much. They can afford to be more generous. I think the owner changed or something because the shaved ice was not as good as when it used to be Mochilato. Anyhow, I am pretty critical about where I will spend my money for a $15 desert and sorry, but i probably won't be going back. Not worth it for me. read more

Came here for a pallet cleanser dessert after having dinner in the same center on a Saturday night. It was busy inside filled with people hanging out, enjoying their dessert and staying a while. We got the house shaved ice to share and it was just enough for the three of us who were already full from dinner, but we wanted something slightly sweet. The fresh fruit made it more appealing and less guilty for us to enjoy. The shaved ice was not overly sweet, which is the way we like it. Looking forward to the next visit to try other items on their menu. read more

Always a great cute cafe to go in Irvine! I've been there a few times and the staff is always super sweet. 2 of the girls, Alyssa and Kiersten have been there when I went there the past few times and they were super helpful and friendly! The dessert also comes quickly and tastes great! read more

Don't come if you're in a hurry. Very slow service. Been here three times now for just a simple lemonade, and the wait time on those 3 visits has been 11 minutes, 14 minutes, and 16 minutes. It's good, but slow. read more

This place really has it all! From cream puffs to shakes to mochi ice cream to ice cream...and so much more, this is your one-stop-shop for dessert! I come here often to snatch up some cream puffs but just ordered their coffee shake & I realized I have found my shake spot too! Service here is so friendly and kind, the line always moves fairly quickly, and inside has plenty of seating. Easily one of the best dessert places out there, highly recommend! read more

Workers were rude. When I went up to the counter she said "what do you want?" Very short and rude. I asked her for one of the cream puffs and she said "we don't serve those after 8:30" it was just a few minutes after 8:30. I said okay, went back to our group at our table. Right at 9pm another one of the workers came to our table and said "SORRY, WERE CLOSED NOW" which is fine. We respect closing time, but there was a much nicer way to say it to customers. One of the other girls in our group asked for a sample and the worker said they don't give them out for gelato. So she asked what the flavor tasted like, the worker responded saying that she's never tried any of the ice creams so she couldn't help her. She was also very rude when helping her out as well. The same worker was rude to both me and my friend. Would not recommend coming here. Will most likely not be coming back. read more

Mochi - Seasonal with Strawberry filling - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Irvine, California

Terrible service and zero hospitality. I paid $8 for a small cup of sorbet and even left a tip, only to be treated with hostility. The woman who served me was not friendly, didn't crack a smile and acted as if she was miserable serving a guest. Then, the man behind the counter publicly embarrassed my friend, ordering her to put back utensils and napkins. It is pathetic to power-trip and hassle paying customers over a few basic napkins and measly plastic utensils that cost fractions of a cent. If we were grabbing a massive handful, a warning might make sense. But stopping us over free standard items after I just made a purchase is a joke and so wrong. I actually had to inform him aren't they free and I made a purchase multiple times before he finally relented. Horrible judgment, miserable attitude, and completely unwelcoming. The sorbet is overpriced, and the staff behaves like they hate their jobs. I will absolutely never return. read more

We ordered two puffs to go: original crust with vanilla filing, along with Oreo crust with matcha filling. They filled them once the order was placed, so the curst still kept a nice crunch after our 30+ minute drive home. The pate a choux was pleasant, and the vanilla creme/custard filling was not overly sweet either. I think they complement each other well. In terms of the consistency, the matcha custard was way too runny. It became almost impossible to eat while trying to maintain some human decency... the filling would gush out when a bite was attempted. While we did enjoyed the matcha flavor, it failed as a "puff" filling. The original was a little cheaper than the other crust, but the white chocolate on the Oreo crust kept the puff crispier after an extended period of time. read more

Just came in to purchase Sonny angels and the cashiers were rude and spoke to me in a serious tone and demeanor. I get the sense they treat some customers better than others...When I was checking out and had a question about pricing, one of them was quick to tell me no returns allowed (no one asked). Then when we left, they returned to chatting amongst themselves. Would not come here again if this is the usual vibe read more

Advice to the owner of Mochi. Came in and bought a toy item since they have a big selection. Came home and within 30 minutes came back because the item was defective/broken. Supervisor had to reach out to owner for simple exchange. My advice is a supervisor should be able to make simple decisions at their own discretion. She seemed of making an easy customer service decision. Terrible way to run business imo read more

I've visited this dessert shop multiple times, and each visit has been a delight! The desserts are fantastic, but what truly stands out is the incredible service provided by Jesse. Every time I walk through the door, she greets me with a cheerful smile and a warm welcome that makes me feel right at home. What's truly impressive is that she remembers my favorite dessert, even with so many customers coming and going. That kind of personal touch is a rarity these days! Jesse consistently goes above and beyond, ensuring that every customer feels valued and attended to. Her positive attitude and dedication to customer service are a perfect representation of what this shop is all about. I just want to give a shout-out to the owner for hiring such a wonderful person. Having someone like Jesse on the team is a massive asset, as her friendly demeanor makes people feel good and keeps them coming back again and again. Kudos to Jesse for making every visit a memorable one! Note, for some reason on yelp, it was not letting me check off the word, ambience, the ambience, the service, the food, everything was at 10! read more

I really wanted to like this place after I saw some of the reviews. Just a bit too disappointing for me. The inside is spacious, cute, and modern. They have interesting little things for sale outside of the desserts. I have to admit, I didn't know what each one was as I browsed. Once in line, we decided to get the chocolate with chocolate filling and the creme brûlée. The experience with the cashier was awkward. We weren't really greeted, so the exchange was basically us asking a question. She responded in a flat tone, like she really didn't want to be there or maybe she was annoyed. Not sure, but in any case it felt like a Walmart interaction. I was looking forward to the crème brûlée, but I found it not to taste anything like crème brûlée. It tasted more like a melted marshmallow on top of a creme puff. We placed our other purchases in the refrigerator and by the next morning there was no puff left, they literally had become melted sandwiches. I grew up eating real creme puffs as my mother was Italian, so I knew this was not that traditional type of creme puff. Nonetheless it should have kept its "puff." To be honest, we didn't even eat them because they no longer looked appetizing. They were about five bucks a piece, so it felt like not only a wasted trip, but a total waste of what should have been tasty dessert. Would not recommend at all. Go to cream pan instead!!! read more

The store sells a variety of desserts inside, but this time, I came for the Mochi Ice Cream. They have a buy-five-get-one-free offer, and each one costs $2.35. It's not exactly cheap, but unfortunately, most of the mochi I received was too frozen, and I couldn't taste the texture at all. I was quite disappointed after eating them. 店裡面有賣各式各樣的甜點，但這次是為了Mochi Ice Cream來的。他們的Mochi Ice cream 買五送一，一個要價$2.35，說起來也不算是便宜，然而拿到的很多顆mochi，都是太過凍的狀態，mochi根本吃不出來口感，吃了好失望 read more
