The best place ever. Such a cool spot with a cool concept and the owner is a masterchef winner! His story is amazing and I love supporting the business. The mochi is divine, especially the mango one. The vanilla chocolate one with matcha and raspberry is also killer. It's so cute inside very pink and girlie with squish mellows!! I'm here at least once a month and I live in deep queens so I really be going out of my way to go! read more

We came to Pavlo Mochi and ordered the 4pc mochi box ($18 +1.50 each is you order the chocolate shelled one). We chose: Apricot Macadamia ($4.75) - macadamia nut mousse and apricot puree. Good, but wish there was less mousse an more puree. Pistachio Raspberry ($4.75) - pistachio mousse and raspberry puree. Not a fan of this one because they used the artificial pistachio flavor. Mango, Passion Fruit, and Vanilla ($4.75) - vanilla mousse with mango-passion fruit puree. Good, but wish there was more passionfruit flavor. Lemon Brownie ($6.25) - Lemon mousse, white chocolate, and brownie center. This was out favorite. Good combination of sweet and citrus. The mochi was nice and soft. The shop was small, but had 4 small tables for seating. Vibes was cute and funky. read more

What a cute funky little place! I originally found out about this place because I wanted to find a cute gift for some mochi loving friends- went to go try it out myself and forget them, I'm keeping these mochi to myself hahah... We got the mango/passionfruit mochi, banana milk jam mochi and tiramisu mochi- all were sooooo good. The mochi is really excellent quality, just the right amount of chew and pull and crazy smooth. The fillings are generous and are simply delicious! Packaging is super cute too- they put it in this cute holographic bag and the mochi were nestled in a cute box. Definitely perfect as a gift. Service is friendly! Ask them for recommendations read more

Pavlo has been on my list to try for over 2 years now and it was worth the wait! Everything from the storefront to the tabling and packaging is well thought out and visually appealing, but this place isn't just Instagrammable! Their mochi case is a thing of beauty and the two I tried (passionfruit and pistachio) were delightfully light and creamy, but packed with flavor. The staff here is also very kind! It was a hot day out and they were quick to offer me water and a refill to go. read more

The holographic bag design/ adorable packaging, the pink interior design, and the super friendly staff were literally just the cherry on top to this out of the world mochi experience I'm a mochi connoisseur and I can definitely say pavlo mochi's mochis are a 10/10‍‍ Super pillowy and the cream inside is perfectly smooth (not thick and gelatinous like some places)... HIGHLY recommend the tiramisu and the banana flavor - banana one tasted like an actual banana...felt pretty healthy or at least I'd like to assume:) read more

We came to visit this spot after seeing it on social media and it was a small quant spot decorated in pink. Although there's not much space to eat in the store, the clerk let us stay to eat there. The mochis we got were the tiramisu and mango passionfruit vanilla mochis. Both were very light and creamy. The mango had a slight tang to it which I really liked. Although the prices are slightly high for what it is, they were still very good and very nice for the hot sunny day. read more

Pavlo Mochi - Tiramisu Mochi & Mango-Passionfruit Vanilla Mochi - Desserts Near Me - New York, New York

The softest, stretchiest, freshest handmade mochi in the East Village! I tried the strawberry jam mochi from Pavlo a while back and couldn't get over how soft it was. This time I went back to try more flavors and can confirm: every single one hits!! Each mochi is filled with fresh mousse cream or fruit jam. Unlike traditional japanese mochi, which tends to be denser and chewier, theirs has a pillowy, cloud-like wrapper that's extra stretchy and light. They just dropped a Lunar New Year box ($36) with exclusive Asian-inspired flavors, including 2 strawberry and red bean, 2 matcha, lotus seed and raspberry, and 2 black sesame and blueberry. ＊Mango Passionfruit Vanilla $4.75 * ＊Dubai Chocolate $6.25 ** ＊Rose Prosecco $4.75 *Valentine's Day Special ＊Strawberry Matcha Latte $6.75 * If I had to pick faves, the dubai chocolate was dangerously rich and addictive, but heavier than the fruity ones so I couldn't finish in one sitting. Matcha raspberry was a standout too. Elite combo with their strawberry matcha latte. I love the adorable Barbie-pink storefront. It's so eye-catching and fun. The staff were friendly and helpful. I accidentally dropped my mochi on the floor, and she kindly offered to replace it with another piece. read more

Since Yelp no longer has a "Tips" function, adding a PSA here for those looking for non-dairy mochi. As of a couple weeks ago Pablo Mochi no longer carries these, they only carry ones with dairy filling (cream cheese and heavy cream--which sounded delicious though weren't what I was looking for). I received an email that they were offering a free mochi to those who received the email. So I took a trip over to this little shop in LES (Avenue B between 12th and 13th streets) to check'em out, From seeing their previous reviews I was excited to get a few of their non-dairy options like matcha coconut yuzu, chocolate cherry, and coconut mango. Upon arrival the staff member was friendly when I mentioned the free mochi offer. I then asked about the non-dairy options and they shared the unfortunate news, though were apologetic and understanding when I chose not to purchase anything. So even though I didn't try anything, their service left a positive impression on me. The store itself is Pretty in Pink meets Barbie's Dream-house/diner. The mochis sit neatly in the glass display case front and center. In addition to their ice cream-filled mochi, they serve a couple flavors of cream puffs, a chocolate chip cookie, brownie and basque cheese cake by the slice. Seats for about 10 people are available. read more

Such a great find! I ordered the strawberry mochi sandwich, and they actually wrap the fresh mochi right after you order rather than using premade ones. The ice cream is completely covered with crunchy chocolate and fresh mochi. I absolutely loved the contrast of the soft mochi texture and the crunchy chocolate. I'll definitely come back! read more

Came here during the summer and sat on a bench just outside the shop. There were two girls on the bench opposite ours raving loudly at how good the mochi is. As they finished their's they talked about which flavor they wanted to get next time. They planned to get two each time (their favorite one and try a new one). It was the cutest thing. I love mochi and came to check this place out after seeing it on social media. I brought my friend (who isnt a big mochi person). As soon as my friend and I tried the mochis, we were both raving about it too. It's stretchy, soft and perfectly chewy. It doesn't stick to your teeth and the desserts aren't too sweet. Many of them have a cream filling but they don't feel heavy/oily! Today we tried the mango passion fruit vanilla mochi (their best seller) and the citrus mochi. I was going to also get the banana milk jam but the staff told me that right now, anyone who writes a review gets a banana milk jam mochi. The banana milk jam was our favorite today- hands down!! We took a bite and immediately knew. The flavor is strong and rich but not overpowering. We'll be back to try more :) Also, during the summer the inside of the shop was sparse but they've since updated it! Its so cute now!! read more

I think mochi is like my new favorite thing. Before I thought it was good but like whatever. I might genuinely like mochi more than like chocolate chip cookies. AND I LOVE CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES. Anyways pavlo mochi is a dedicated mochi spot (maybe the first in town!!??) and it is so good. The mochi itself is soooooo soft and slightly chilled which I LOVE. I only tried the strawberry hazelnut flavor but will definitely be back to try other flavors. Stretchy outer mochi layer + sweet creamy inside. I love that the creamy hazelnut filling was cut by the strawberry jam as well that was slightly tart. The cream wasn't super creamy and whipped tho more like a bit soft and wet. Still together I loved the flavor combo and what a great dessert in general. Powdered sugar on the outside too! OH also there were chunks of chocolate in the hazelnut cream which added texture for me which I was a fan of but can see how some people may not like. +++++ points for the cutesy store and beautiful packaging and presentation of the mochi themselves!!! Decently big in size too. read more

I stopped in after a friend was raving about them. They have a nice store and they're open pretty late - 9pm. I had a hazelnut chocolate strawberry mochi. My friend says this is the weakest flavor but I usually like a chocolate strawberry combo. The mochi was just ok. I didn't realize they would put pieces of actual hazelnut inside which I didn't care for. The mochi is big so I only ordered one. The service was good. I'd come back to try another flavor read more

I'm not the biggest fan of bean fillings, so this place is great for me! The mochi is soft and the cream filling is so delicious. Everything tastes so fresh. My favorite is the raspberry matcha. They offer frozen mochis that you can defrost to eat later, which was comparable to the ones that you can eat right away. read more

((4.25 stars)) squeezed into Avenue B is Pavlo Mochi, a small spot serving a menu of unique mochi flavors, specialty coffee drinks, lemonades, bobas, ice cream and more! it's a small colorful space which is devoted mostly to the making of the menu and is neatly maintained. tried a number of the specialty coffee drinks. really enjoyed the Vanilla Coffee Ice as it is a subtle coffee drink made of vanilla coffee ice cubes melting in milk...which softens the flavor of the coffee and vanilla initially and then punches through as the ice cubes melting. coffee delivered in a creative way. had the strawberry matcha drink which i also really enjoyed as the flavors came together really in an interesting way--the matcha flavor with the tart sweetness of the strawberry punching through. toured a bunch of different drinks here and they all seem to be served in a sealed drink bottle with a tabbed top (think soda can) and each drink comes with a metal straw. really like this method of serving cold drinks. it's a nice touch. the owner, operator, chef, Pavlo, offered me a mango mochi to try and i obliged. this is a different class of mochi. more silky smooth and soft with only a slight bit of chewiness. the mochi i tried was not overly sweet, but had the essence of mango in the mochi's filling. the Pavlo mochi is much larger than your typical factory-made mochi that you typically encounter. the Pavlo mochi is also not rubbery in texture like other mochis that i have tried. the menu, here, feels creative and is focused on flavor than sugariness in its drinks and mochi imo. the owner and his staff are friendly. worth a visit if you want to try a dessert drink or eat off-the-beaten-path. read more

Cute mochi shop with fun flavors! This isn't the ice cream type of mochi or the traditional Japanese kind, instead it's filled with whipped cream and compotes/other fillings. I tried the passion mango one and the fruit flavor was good. Not a huge fan of whipped cream so didn't enjoy these as much as other mochis. Any whipped cream lover would love these! They also package the mochis well which is nice because they can be delicate. read more

I stopped by Pavlo Mochi about 10 minutes before closing, but I called ahead and the staff were so kind and accommodating. They let me place my shake order over the phone just in case the machine was shut down by the time I arrived, which I really appreciated! I ordered four mochi and they even gave me one for free for leaving a review, which was such a sweet gesture. The mochi flavors were astonishingly good! The cherry tiramisu blew me away, it actually had real tiramisu inside! The others were incredibly creamy with fun layers of jam, syrup, and texture inside the filling, making each bite so satisfying. The mochi skin is on the thinner side and all the flavors lean sweet, but overall they were delightful. The shop and packaging are so adorable, bright and pink, perfect for cute, aesthetic photos. Between the friendly service and the creative flavors, I'll definitely be coming back! read more

Pavlo Mochi in the East Village is a dessert shop selling mousse-filled mochi in an array of fun flavors. We tried the hazelnut strawberry, passionfruit mango vanilla and peanut caramel chocolate shell mochi. All of them were so delicious and found that the texture of the mochi was perfect. They make for a great gift or perfect sweet treat for yourself read more

If you're ever looking for the softest, most pillowey, fresh mochi, look no further -- Pavlo Mochi is the spot! I've tried a handful of their flavors, ranging from more decadent options like tiramisu to their fruity options like mango passionfruit and they've all been delicious. My favorite is the mango passionfruit. The mochi is made of super soft rice flour and the inside has vanilla mousse and a not too sweet, fresh, yummy mango passion fruit puree. I've gotten a small box of it as a gift for a friend and they also loved it. Highly recommend checking them out! read more

We got a couple of the mochis - the mango, passionfruit and vanilla (all one mochi) and the new Dubai chocolate. Both were so good! The texture of the mochi is so soft and melty and everyone you would want mochi to be. The flavors were also really good. The mango, passionfruit and vanilla was my favorite, but the Dubai chocolate was really good and they got the texture of the kunafe in there as well. I also go an iced honey lemon matcha, which was super refreshing. It had a good balance of sweet, tart and earthy. They also put it in this cute clear soda can. Overall, I'm a fan and would definitely come back if I lived closer. read more

But I'm a Pavlo! Check out this amazing bakery @pavlo.mochi for some delicious mochi, cream puffs, cookies, and other desserts! The mochi and cream puff were absolutely delicious. The mochi and cream puffs were very authentic, artisanal, and hand crafted. I absolutely loved their mango passion fruit vanilla mochi! It was so good! Their vanilla cream puff also tasted heavenly! I definitely recommend getting their mango passion fruit mochi and vanilla cream puff. The prices were also good, the mochi and cream puffs were around $4.75-$6.25 each. The drinks were also good too, they had matcha, lemonade, and other fun beverages! The decor/aesthetic/and ambience of the bakery was also amazing! The entire bakery was pink themed and it had an amazing dessert smell to it. The bakery had a retro 80s campy theme to it, which I loved. This bakery also reminded me of the aesthetics from the movie, But I'm a cheerleader. Customer service was also really good, the server was really nice and informative and my desserts came out quickly. It also wasn't too crowded when I went, which is nice.

These were sooooo good, and lovely flavors and good sizes. (: Favorites were the white chocolate matcha raspberry and the mango cream

Heard about this place via Instagram and knew I had to make the trip to try this mochi place out. Service is friendly and efficient. The decor is so cute and fun! We got the passionfruit mango, matcha raspberry, banana jam and orange vanilla. I loved both of the passionfruit mango and matcha raspberry, but wish they are firmer, but the flavors are HITTING, both are a bit tart and refreshing while being creamy and sweet as well. read more

The mochi itself is good. Quite pricey for each item. The store is pretty bare bones and the employees seem a little confused. Mochi itself is pretty thin and the cream is light and flavorful. I got the mango passionfruit and vanilla. Had to take about two bites to get to the fruit compote, which was nice and tart. Overall, if you were a fan of cream, you would love these. read more

Wouldn't consider myself a mochi person, but these are very good. Got the Tiramisu and the Chocolate Covered Peanut Caramel. The Tiramisu was incredible...light mochi outside and a delicious coffee-forward filling. The Peanut Chocolate one wasn't bad, but it was a bit sweet and overall wasn't as delicate. Got my mochi to-go and the packaging was beautiful. Recommend checking out! read more

Absolutely incredible mochi. It's obvious they put a lot of effort into making them. 10/10

Incredible! This is the best mochi I've ever tried. I really appreciate the texture and the delicious flavor combos.

Saw this place being reviewed online and decided to try it. Glad I did because the mochi is fresh and service is friendly. The flavors we got were great for the most part. The mango, passion fruit, vanilla one was our favorite, having the right balance of sugar and tart fruit puree. It was followed by the strawberry biscoff, hazelnut, tiramisu, and last was the pistachio. The only complaint we had was the pistachio was a little artificial tasting compared to the rest. The toppings on all of them (except tiramisu) felt a littttttle sweet but I get the desire of wanting to differentiate them and make them stand out. read more

The mochi look pretty but is this really mochi? There is no chewiness or bite on the mochi, the mochi itself is super thin, and the inside is a giant swab of cream cheese related items. Not my style but if you are into very cream flavors then sure? Hard to taste the different flavors as well since the cream dominates. read more

Delicious mochis I love the texture and flavors my favorite was the strawberry Nutella. Definitely recommend trying it.

Forget what you thought about mochi in the past (at least outside of Japan); this is a unique experience. Each one we tried, Hazelnut Strawberry, Tiramisu and Banana, was outstanding. Truly delicious treats. I will be back. read more

The best mochi I've ever had. I went back today and got three more mochi including pumpkin. I had my headphones in when I took a bite of the pumpkin and I literally had to stop the music and take my headphones off because I realized it deserved all my attention. The mochi itself is so light and chewy and the filling is devine. So bold and pumpkin-y with all the spices but more delicate in texture. It was beautiful. read more
