NO LIMONCELLO!!! They have them sliced small pieces but not in whole cakes. Its expensive sliced.

Japanese Cheesecake was so good. nutela was also good but prefer the japanese cheesecake.

I was so excited to try this place out because there are very few shops, if any, that sell Japanese cheesecake here in Texas. We got their known Japanese cheesecake which was $19 EACH. It was spongy, soft, and not too sweet, but it did not pass the jiggle test and was pretty expensive for a 7-8 inch diameter cake. They also sell specialty cheesecakes, so we got 1 slice of their Nikko's House Cheesecake. It was a good balance of sweet and cheesiness with a crumbly crust but unfortunately I cannot justify the price for such a small slice of their specialty cheesecake. I would say it's fun to try once but if they continue to keep these prices... it's not worth coming back for. read more

Second time here! This is the best cheesecake. At this point, even better than I used to eat in Brooklyn, NY. Light and great taste. The staff is friendly and helpful about taking care of the cake before you eat it. read more

Not the best Japanese cheesecake but sure wasn't terrible. Went in on a Monday afternoon and store was pretty empty. They have many flavored slices to choose from that's about $6 each. I got the limoncello and Nutella which wasn't bad. I haven't tried their $18 cheesecake yet but there was plenty available when I was there. Service was pretty nice and explained how the cakes were made. I'd come back later on to try other flavors ! read more

This was fun. Would love to get here when they are pulling the cakes fresh from the oven. They have several varieties of American style cheesecakes. But Don't look for new York style it is not here. The service was great they were quick and friendly. The space is clean and a fun anime style. The teas are great so definitely don't skip this part. read more

Had heard about this place on instagram, but was hesitant to try it out as the yelp reviews weren't good. However, I was pleasantly surprised with the cheesecake. Got the classic $18 cheesecake, plenty to share for 5-6 people. Recommended keeping it in the fridge and finishing it within 3 days. The cheesecake tasted like a light and fluffy cake, but also had a silky feel to it. I have never tasted anything like it before, it's so easy to keep eating it! Definitely recommend trying this place out. read more

Found out about this place from Tiktok and I was so excited! The cheesecake looked amazing online and I drove over an hour to see the soft opening. I saw they closed at 8 so I got there around 6:30 and when I went inside there was a line of people and so I got in line. While in line a worker asked us we had pre ordered and we all said no, she then said "okay then we are closed." Closed? It's 6:30? so all of us proceeded to leave and everyone was confused. I'm really disappointed, and will not be returning anytime soon. So if you want to try this place, I would "pre order" before driving all the way out here. read more

My family and I went here on a Friday afternoon. The line was very long when we arrived, so we assumed that their cheesecakes HAD to be good because of this! The sizing was pretty good, but it was really pricy as one box was $17.68. Although, my family and I could tell that they were freshly made from looking at the employees making them. Once we got in and bought a box, we tried it once we got back to our hotel room. The employees told us that it is best to eat the cheesecake within 3 days of purchase for the best quality, and to microwave once piece around 10-20 seconds. So we microwaved our pieces, and tried it....it was so soft-tasting! It had an eggy taste to it (in a good way), exclaiming the freshness of how the cheesecake was made. The taste was really good! Although, I do wish that it was a bit more wobbly since I was expecting a Japanese pancake type of texture, but it was still a good tasting cheesecake! Even though it is a bit expensive, I would come back and get another one if I'm in the Houston area once again. read more

The single slice cheesecake was fire! But the whole cake was okay. It wasn't sweet but there was flavor, I would definitely come back again. read more

I like the cheesecake, it was a fluffy cake that wasn't overly sweet, I'd definitely recommend and buy again

I saw the ads for this store few months ago on IG and heard people complain they always have a long line then i decided to wait until now to try if. First at all, the look is not really special or impressive if comparing to Uncle Tetsu in Vietnam (which is originally from Japan and very popular worldwide). Secondly, the cake actually is fluffy but not wiggly like other comments said. Last but not least, the taste is kinda plain to me. It was like...when you eat it, you feel like "oh this is kinda like cheesecake", but it does not really taste like cheesecake. read more

The texture and appearance reminds me of a cross between a pound cake and sponge cake but with more bounce. It's fluffy and springy and not too sweet. Just a really great treat all around. I like traditional cheesecakes and their creaminess but this is a nice difference. It's light. It's airy. It's delicate. Still has that cheese taste but more subtle as opposed to a bold outburst of flavor. I like it. I like it very much! This is a great addition to bring to a dinner party, any celebratory gathering or just because you feel deserving of a treat. It's not the main character of the dessert table but it can be great sidekick. Yum! read more

This cake is so good, very fluffy, soft and the right amount of sweetness. There was no line on a Sunday afternoon and that was nice. We all have been waiting to try it out. For sure a new dessert for parties. read more

It was just okay. Initial taste was not good. It had a strong old cheese taste and was like a sponge cake. After refrigerating over night, it actually tasted much better. I ate it with milk but would be good with milk, coffee, or tea. I thought it was okay the next day when cold. Texture dense up more. I have had much better cheesecake at other Asian bakeries. For a place claiming to sell Japanese cheesecake, this place fails. read more

DO NOT LISTEN TO 1 STAR REVIEWS!!! None of these 1 star reviews of people saying it doesn't taste "sweet enough" have ever tried an actual Japanese Cheesecake. There's no doubt that they're getting all their info from TikTok where everything is way overblown and hyped up to be the most amazing thing ever. This is authentic Japanese Cheesecake, which is very mild in flavor and fluffy compared to our very sweet creamy American New York style. The taste was fantastic and exactly what I was looking for in a Japanese cheesecake. Don't go expecting and explosion of flavor but rather a comforting bite that makes you want to just keep digging in...that is until you get too full. If you do want a regular American cheesecake I recommend trying their other flavors sold in slices such as their strawberry or caramel. The staff was also very helpful and informative explaining the different cheesecakes and were not stand-offish like other reviews have stated. The staff reminded me of people at any typical foreign run business which again is not like our American customs like immediately greeting you when you first come in or are trying to bombard you with questions in attempts to get you in and out of their store in a quick manner. The store is small with the kitchen in view for all to see their cheesecake making progress. All of their their cheesecake flavors are directly at the front in the glass counter at the front right as you walk in. Most would assume you'd be able to figure out exactly what you'd want from how simple it is and if not they're more than happy to answer any questions you'd have (which was exactly my experience). They even explained how to eat it either hot or cold and how long it will keep for. I can't wait to return and get another. AGAIN, don't go here expecting typical New York cheesecake but something much much more mild and fluffy. read more

This place was very interesting and pretty damn delicious. We drove down to Houston for a conference and stopped by early one morning. You better believe we left there with 4 of their cakes and drove back to Dallas with them in the back seat. The family loved it. It's so unique. The cake is breaded. Not like a normal cheese cake. It isn't as sweet but as the cheese cake hit in it. With a cup of coffee, it was bliss. I hope to return to Houston soon. I'll be stopping by once again. read more

Cheesecake is good and very fresh. Service could be improved drastically. Honestly wouldn't go back because of the attitude from the workers, read more

I went with my mom on Wednesday after we saw Tiktoks about this place. We came in fully expecting a long wait/pre order but the cashier was super sweet and told us that they had cheesecakes available for 'first come first serve' and the wait would be 20 minutes. My mom and I bought 2 and she really enjoyed them, they aren't that sweet and are really airy. She wants to go back and buy more as well, I personally really liked them too but I think putting them in the box for sure ruins the jiggle. That's a small issue tho and the overall taste is still really good. read more

Cheesecake is delicious! No matter what time you go they are still as good as they look online.

Friends and family members wanted to try the Japanese cheesecake from this bakery. Apparently, there were a lot of postings on social media platforms about the cheesecake, so we want to investigate. My wife and I dropped by around noon this past Thursday. We encountered no line and no purchase limit. We walked straight to the counter and were warmly greeted by the staff. We purchased two cheesecake with no issue at $19 each, tax included. We were done in 5 minutes. One cheesecake was for a friend 's birthday and the other for youngest daughter and ourself to enjoy. Everyone at the birthday party enjoyed the cheesecake with a couple going back for second. My family enjoyed the cheesecake as well. The bake was not overly sweet and the moist filling was hard to describe. We definitely tasted the cream cheese and egg flavors. To truly enjoy this cheesecake, one must not compare it to a typical NYC or American style cheesecake regardless of the name. It is just a Japanese invention of a cream cheese and egg tasting light cake. The cake was pricey and we wouldn't go out of our way to get one again. read more

Tasteless, I am someone who doesn't like overly sweet things. It was around $20 for a cheesecake that was kind of stiff/ not giggly and the make it seem. just not worth it in my opinion read more

Definitely hyped up on social media. Sense of urgency used to purchase. The hoopla is over. 18 bucks for an Angel food cake. Wasn't cheesecake at all. I did see another place I really want to try so wasn't a total waste. Basic, dry, Bland flavor and generally not good at all. Lesson learned and will visit the area bit not visiting here again. read more

Not cheesecake. Taste like very fluffy egg bread. Price is ridiculous for what you get.

My mom loves Japanese cheesecake so I decided to check this place out. I had pretty high hopes but honestly would not come here again. The cheesecake is pretty mid. read more

Every bad review here is basically people that don't understand that 1. The only way to get that jiggly one you see on YouTube is to be there when they're baked and fresh out of the oven and 2. People that don't seem to know that Asian desserts are generally not overly sweet and indulgent like American desserts. If you understand both of those things, you'll enjoy their Japanese cheesecake. I literally never leave reviews and the bad reviews/overall rating of this place shocked me so much that I had to leave a comment. People are messing with other's livelihoods just because they're ignorant, it's a shame. Great place to come on a casual day out when you want to pick up an extra treat for people. Much better than the 85 degree version of these cheesecakes which I do think is dry and underwhelming. read more

Finally tried this famous cheesecake and well....it's very anticlimactic & quite disappointing. It's not squishy or shaky like on the videos & the taste is quite boring. It's just very lightly sweetened pound cake texture with a bit a cheese I guess. The cashier was very friendly & asked if it were my first visit there. He highlighted the directions on the box. It was a very clean restaurant that had a small seating area read more

I usually dont leave bad reviews but after seeing some people trying to justify this place, i had to comment. Dont claim to specialize in something when you dont even know how to make it properly or cant meet the demand. This place sucks and you are better off going to literally any other bakery in the area. read more

Cheese cakes are great. Again, ppl need to realize that in America, they put A LOT of sugar into their sweets. Doesn't matter if it's cakes or cookie etc.. Sugar is addictive and this creates an addiction/craving and thus creates more sales. Japanese ppl are more conscious of this and overl all health, which is why, their sweets are not overly sweet. To me, they were great. Got exactly what I expected. Went in on a Monday afternoon around 4sh. Over all good and tasty, and consistency is exactly what I expected, staff could be friendlier though. A simple "hello how are you?" or "hello, welcome" goes a long way. For a second I thought neither employee could speak English, until I payed. Employee spoke to me to give me my total and that's it. Nothing more, nothing less. Maybe they are shy, I don't know. Still like I said, a simple greeting goes a long way. Ambiance seems cozy to be honest. I picked up to go, but the place did seem cozy. read more

Haven't got chance to try !! But if the owner do read the comments,pls train your staff about customers services again !!! Been there this afternoon because you take other on the phone,I know your cake is HOT now so I understand that ! Drive 45min to the store ,just walk-in the employee yell at my face : " Don't you see the sign ? We restock at 5PM ??? " what the hell ?? I come to buy the cake not ask for donation ??? That not how you treat your customers in anyway !!! read more
