Cherries jubilee is amazing!
Hannah W.

SomiSomi is a fam favorite and we were thrilled to be able to make the trek over to their Milpitas location. I loved being able to park right outside and march in on a hot October evening to indulge in a midweek dessert. This location lets you choose between a piece of fruit of macaron as a garnish! We ordered the upside down Somi Somi stuffed with custard and placed on the most deliciously tart cherries jubilee soft serve. We even got a sprinkle of fruity pebbles. The whole thing was perfect and wonderful!

Very fast service and chill experience! I went when it wasn't too busy and got my order less than 5 minutes. I know other times can get packed. They don't have seating inside but have benches outside. Plenty of room inside to stand and wait for your order. You place an order on a tablet but menu is also on the board. The price is good and very full filling! I got the matcha with a red bean taiyaki which is made fresh in front of you. It was very delicious! It opens later than other dessert places so it's a refreshing treat after dinner. Had plenty of parking the plaza when I went but I know it can be a bit hectic during weekend.

Whenever I visit this place, I don't just order taiyaki like most people do. Although all the flavors are delicious, I always order a secret-menu drink as well! I'm so happy that the staff are willing to make it for me. I definitely give their customer service five stars! I highly recommend this place and hope more people come by to enjoy their delicious taiyaki! 我通常去這家店,不像大家只單純點了鯛魚燒,儘管每一種口味都很好吃,但是我會點一個隱藏款的飲料。我非常開心店員願意幫我做,我給予店員的服務五顆星,希望大家多多光臨這裡的鯛魚燒!

Came here for dessert after the noodles next door Finally, there is a soft serve spot that serves Asian flavors. I got matcha with a fish cone. Their cones are unique to simulate the Asia koi fish desserts... Usually, those dessert are warm with hot red bean or some sort of custard filling This is similar in that u get to chose a filling in the cone before the soft serve. I pick the traditional red beans... These was no tables or chairs inside... Perhaps they are still setting up the furnitures as this spot is also on a soft open like the noodle spot.. u can sit on the bench outside... I decided to walk around the plaza and went all the way to ranch99. Good exercise after lunch and to walk off this sweet indulgence Anyways, nice addition to the neighhood

Matcha & Earl Grey with custard ahboong

The ice cream is really smooth and was such a great pick me up during the heatwave. The staff was sweet, running out to remind me I forgot my custard taiyaki! Highly recommend to satisfy a soft serve fix.

Visited Somisomi in Milpitas on a quiet Monday night for our very first time, and it was incredible! If you prefer desserts that aren't overly sweet, this spot hits the mark. The flavors are so rich and well-balanced. We got the Earl Grey and Cookies and cream soft serve stuffed in the taiyaki cone, paired with Black Sesame waffle. Every bite was spot on. Highly recommended, and we can't wait to come back!

Somisomi is an absolute staple for soft serve.Super smooth, perfectly creamy, and topped with crunchy toasted coconut. Always hits the spot when craving something sweet. Ube s my fav n a must try.

Milk swirl with red bean taiyaki

Delish!!! We got the ice cream with the ahbong and it was soo yummy. The warmth of the pastry + the ice cream was an amazing combo. Came around 8pm on a Friday and it was super busy the line was out the door, but the line went by pretty quickly and we got our order shortly. Somi somi will always be a hit if i am in the mood for dessert! The parking in this plaza is a little difficult though but that's really the only downside!

I came here for a Yelp event and it didn't disappoint. It was evening time and this shopping center in Milpitas was quite busy with alot of different choices of Asian food. The welcoming entrance of Somisomi was inviting and fun. My chosen soft serve was the Ube flavor with a Taiyaki on top custard filled. I also tried the cherry one as well. Both so good and flavorful. Our attendant was nice and welcoming and we picked a great time as it wasn't busy just yet. My taiyaki was made fresh and i chose a custard filling vs. The Nutella or red bean. The Taiyaki was puffy goodness soft and the right amount of crisp and the custard was the perfect amount and flavorful. We choee to sit outside as the evening was cooler at this point but there was also inside seating to enjoy in the fun and inviting setting of this establishment. I look forward to returning to try another flavor of soft serve but even if i judt got a filled Taiyaki i wouldnt be disappointed.

Upside down filled with Nutella, topped with a matcha and ube swirl, fresh strawberry, Fruity Pebbles, Cocoa Pebbles, and Biscoff crumble.

What can I say about SomiSomi? They never miss. Every location I've visited has been consistently delicious, and this one is no exception. Ordering is quick and easy with the self-service kiosks, and the employees are always friendly and happy to help if you need anything. The inside is pretty simple, but honestly, that's part of the charm. Grab your frozen yogurt, head outside, and enjoy a little people-watching while you dig in. It's the perfect excuse to slow down for a few minutes. As for the frozen yogurt? Always creamy, always delicious, and I've never walked away disappointed. If you're craving something sweet, SomiSomi is one of those places that's hard to go wrong with. I would happily recommend it every time!

9.9/10 Ordered the Ube Pistachio Soft Serve with Taiyaki, a must get! The combination of ube and pistachio was surprisingly amazing. Both flavors complemented each other really well and weren't overly sweet, which I genuinely appreciated (especially as someone with a sweet tooth). The balance of flavors made it easy to enjoy without feeling too heavy. The taiyaki was definitely a must. It had a great texture, crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, and paired perfectly with the soft serve. My only small wish was that it came out a little warmer to add even more contrast with the cold ice cream. Overall, an amazing dessert that I would definitely get again! Service was fast and friendly. The shop has a small, cozy atmosphere, but there is no indoor seating, so it's more of a grab-and-go spot.

Aftet a heavy meal from one of the restaurants near by, we decided to visit this place for some dessert and drinks. They aee built for to-go only because they didnt have any chairs or tables. Service, was good considerong he was the only one working and he managed to complete our big order. The cold brew tasted very good, the fish waffles were nice and warm when served. Great spot for dessert.

Krystal G.

I love Somi Somi! The proper way is to order a cup of soft serve for now, then a box of their made to order taiyaki for later (if it makes it home).

Reviews are largely positive. People highlight the creamy soft serve, fresh taiyaki, and quick and friendly service. The shop is clean and well-kept.

Soft serve was meh! My taiyaki was cold but more importantly not crispy at all. Custard filling was decent.

I had been looking for aiyu jelly seeds for YEARS and this was the one place that had someone who…read morewas willing to check and supply some after I asked! I wasn't sure if it was a coincidence that they'd get a shipment of the product, but I so appreciated the lady that helped me! We had a bit of a language barrier between us, but I felt really valued as a customer when she looked into the item for me rather than dismiss me. I might regret writing this review because it'll attract others who will buy the product as well, but I think this store should be highlighted and treasured as a Taiwanese goods go-to stop! There were also a bunch of other products around the store which I didn't get a chance to look deeply at, since I happened to stumble upon this store and focused on asking about the seeds. I am excited to try and make some this weekend! Will update if they are seeds or aiyu jelly powder! I also got instant tofu pudding too. 10/10 would recommend anyone interested in Taiwanese specialty goods to stop by! Store is small, but super clean and products are neatly nestled. No cash! Credit cards only :-)

Little secret hidden gem…read more Get your snacks from the mainland here, all sorts of eastern chinese snacks. Prices are very fair (you have to realize that it is not cheap to get these shipped + tariffs). But the prices are very very honest and fair. Staffs are great and the selection is very decent.
