    雜果西米露 Mixed Fruit Delight mango mochi coconut mango roll
    Catherine Z.

    LOVE this place! First time checking out this location (I grew up visiting the one in Rowland heights). This place had a decent amount of dessert options left on a Friday evening. We LOVED the fresh mango mochi, which had a huge mango piece in it, yummy custard wrapped in mochi. We loved yikoyiko but this place clearly beats yikoyiko in our view. The mixed fruit dessert was also deliciously creamy and refreshing

    Sweet Black Sesame $5.95

    I usually like Phoenix Dessert, and this San Diego location was amazing. I love their black sticky rice with young coconut it's so fragrant, soft, and perfectly sweet , $5.95 was very affordable . The black sesame dessert was a bit firmer than I prefer, but still was delicious. This is such a cool spot with so many food and dessert options. They have durian, mango, passionfruit, taro , lots of fun ingredients, and it's honestly enjoyable just browsing through everything. There are a few small tables inside and outside if you want to sit and enjoy your treats, but it's also a great place to grab something to go. Customer service here is friendly and attentive . Parking was easy to find, so getting in and out was no hassle at all.

    Phoenix doesn't just sell desserts, they also have hot foods, cold dish, street food, tea and drinks. Their desserts are in the display window, some milk teas are bottled, some are made on the spot. We ordered: Fresh durian delight drink Braised pork belly Durian rolls Custard platter Bottled milk tea Bottled soy milk No complaints on the food or desserts. Hot foods remind me of home cooking. The durian rolls had actual durian seeds coated with the mochi sheet on the outside. The soy milk was too sweet for me. They change their hours every season so be sure to check before you go.

    Mango Lovers Dessert
    Mai H.

    Stopped by after dinner to satisfy my sweet tooth and decided to try their Mango Lovers Dessert. It was good- light, refreshing, and packed with mango flavor. The portion is definitely shareable, it would've been way too much for me to finish on my own. I've had their durian rolls a few times prior, but was in the mood for something more refreshing and the mango lovers delivered. I did have an uncomfortable moment before going in- there was some inappropriate activity happening outside the shop, which made me feel a bit sketchy and unsure at first. When we went inside, the place was completely empty. But not long after, people started trickling in. Overall, I'd recommend stopping by if you're craving something fruity and refreshing. I may come back to try some of their other desserts next time.. like the Durian Lovers Dessert.

    (3pc) Black Sticky Rice & Red Bean Custard

    Upon walking in we were immediately greeted kindly by the workers. Near the entrance, there is the fridge displaying all the tasty looking desserts they have. We got a few to try, but thought they were a bit lacking in flavor. * Mixed Durian Rolls - 8.6/10 (i love durian & i was excited to see that there was a durian dessert. i like how the durian is enclosed with mochi on the outside. however, the durian was not as sweet & fresh as i was expecting. i wish there was a custard/cream inside to add some sweetness to the mochi) * Fresh Mango Pudding - 7/10 (nothing special, just a mango pudding with mango chunks inside. although i wish it had more of a creamy consistency, than a grainy one) * Green Tea & Red Bean Custard - 5/10 (i don't really taste much of green tea. it's pretty much jello with chunks of red bean inside) * Black Sticky Rice & Red Bean Custard - 6/10 (this one was sweeter than the green tea one which i liked. however, i still can't put my finger on the flavor. it's also just a jello with red bean inside. i don't think i am a fan of these custard desserts)

    Durian Mochi
    Joyce Z.

    Normally I stop by Extraordinary Desserts when I'm down in San Diego but needing to cut down on sugar, I had to choose my treat for the most recent trip. Since it's currently only available in So Cal, my wanting to try Phoenix's durian mochi rolls for almost 2 years now, won out especially since they have opened up a San Diego location. I was so excited to discover I could get it in SD that I immediately hopped out of the pool, showered, and hightailed it over there to be Customer #1 that day. Definitely a winner that I literally went back for another pack to share. Having it filled with Musang Durian means I can have two right?

    There are more Phoenix Desserts in the LA areas that I've been to before. Very happy to find this one in San Diego. It's a small shop with limited items and a few small tables inside. I always like their mochi and their custard with different flavors. They're all delicious especially if you have a sweet tooth. There are a few HK street food and a few cold dishes available. The cold tofu platter, the chicken wings, and samosa are all good. The curry fish ball is a bit disappointing and wish they use the white fish balls that are not fried. Be aware they only get shipments from LA on certain days, so they can run out of certain popular desserts. It would be nice if they open more locations.

    We ordered through Uber Eats! The delivery and service were fast! The quality of the desserts were very sumptuous! Not too sweet for me, which is good I like the presentation of how everything looks, and that the desserts were very easy to divide amongst the three of us. 10/10 recommend!

    Durian rolls, Thai mango sticky rice, Mango mochi
    Julie H.

    Finally got to stop in and try a few of their desserts. I bought durian rolls and the mango mochi. My sister got the Thai mango sticky rice. My daughter gobbled down 2 mango mochis real quick. She's already talking about how we need to go back more next time. If you can stand the smell of durian and love to eat it then you will also enjoy the durian rolls. My sister said the mango sticky rice is also good but would be better with a little more coconut cream on top. Perfect sweetness level for all 3. Will come back to try other desserts, drinks and Chinese entrees/street foods next time.

    Mango Pomelo Drink
    George P.

    I've been here a few times now and the service is always so wonderful. Cool little spot with seating inside and an array of desserts to choose from. Lately been on a mango pomelo sago search, so tried theirs and it was so amazing. Coconut based, delicious flavors and lots of fruit in the drink. One of my favorites of the summer. Thanks so much!

    I've had these desserts before in Orange County, so it's nice to have one in SD now. They are known for their durian desserts, but I like their mango rolls better. To be honest, I think durian stinks LOL. I also tried their mango pomelo delight, but it was too sweet for me. I'll stick to their desserts instead!

    Durian roll (top) and assorted mochi (bottom)
    Jasmine C.

    I've had Phoenix in OC. Glad they have a location in sd. They are known for their durian and mango rolls. The outside is mochi. It's chewy and the filling inside is a good amount of durian. The dessert is light and not too sweet. Also tried the assorted mochi. Filled with mango, red bean, taro and sesame. I didn't like it as much. It wasn't chewy. They have a lot of other desserts and drinks too.

    Durian mochi roll, Mango roll, Silken tofu with Ginger Syrup
    Cynthia P.

    I was so excited to hear that there was a phoenix dessert in San Diego! We got the durian mochi rolls, mango rolls, and silken tofu with ginger syrup! It was delicious! The durian mochi is just as good as I remembered it to be! Mango as well! Definitely try this place out if you haven't yet!

Disclaimer: Had I not been part of a large gathering that was coming here, I doubt I ever would have come to this buffet.

Out of the 11 items I tried, only 3-4 items were passable as decent The food was salty The black pepper chicken tasted like fish The food ended up giving my bubble guts the bubble guts-SHEESH! While there were loads of offerings, which I appreciate, the organization of said offerings were a bit strange. The hibachi was set-up going left to right, while the food stations on either side of it were going right to left, creating this crazy clash of people heading in opposite directions. It just wasn't for me.

    I recently tried this restaurant, named "Dao Fu," in the Normal Heights neighborhood of San Diego,…read moreCalifornia. I must say, I never would have stumbled upon this restaurant by myself, but it was highly recommended by my friends who live nearby. My daughter and I were visiting San Diego for a one-week trip because I was required to come here for work. My workdays were pretty packed, but my daughter and I also took advantage of this trip by filling our evenings with lots of fun activities. One thing we did was visit some wonderful friends who live in San Diego. My friend, John, told us that he found an amazing restaurant in San Diego a few decades ago, and he was really sad to find that it had closed down. Several years later, and more recently, he was surprised to find that this same restaurant owner reopened his restaurant in a new location, which is here on Adams Avenue in the Normal Heights neighborhood of San Diego. He was overjoyed to find that this restaurant had reopened in a different location, and he says that this is his favorite restaurant in San Diego. After a story like that, I had to come here to experience this place for myself! We parked on Adams Avenue, and I paid the meter for a reasonable amount of time for us to enjoy our dinner together. I would imagine that parking here can be a bit congested and tricky at times, so I would just suggest that you're patient and careful with where you decide to legally park. We had a party of five for our dinner together, and it was an absolutely wonderful evening with good friends and delicious food. Our waitress was Jun, and she was friendly and professional, as well as attentive to our dinnertime needs. The owner also came out to say hello to us, and he took the time to chat with us for a few minutes during our meal. He was so incredibly nice. I always appreciate it when an owner is willing to devote some time to connect with their customers. For an appetizer, I ordered the "Japanese Pork Gyoza," which are pan fried dumplings filled with pork, fresh ginger, onion, green onion, cabbage, garlic, and soy. It was absolutely delicious, and I had to resist the temptation of eating too many of them so that our friends could enjoy some too. For my meal, I ordered the "Katsu Chicken Curry," which is chicken thigh meat battered in Panko breadcrumbs, deep fried until golden brown and crunchy. I got my meal with a half-and-half mix of white rice and brown rice. My meal was prepared perfectly, and it was incredibly delicious! My meal was concluded with some of their delicious ice cream, which satiated my post-meal sugar cravings. Our evening with friends was special and memorable, and our meals and service at Dao Fu made our evening even more pleasant and enjoyable. Thanks to the owner, our waitress, and the staff for making our evening a wonderful one. The next time I'm back in this area, I'll be sure to come here again!
