We've been coming to Thach Che Hien Khanh for as long as I can remember, and it has always been a consistent spot for chè. This time we stopped by around 3:30 pm and, as usual, there was a line. The plaza itself can get very busy, so I prefer coming on weekdays when both the wait and parking tend to be easier. My usual orders are the Che Ba Mau and Che Thai, and I also really enjoy the Banh Tam. I recommend getting the ice on the side so you can enjoy the chè at your own pace without it getting watered down. Everything is also packaged and sealed really well for takeout. Thach Che Hien Khanh has remained consistently tasty and authentic over the years, and it's an easy recommendation whenever I'm craving chè. read more

Thach Che Hien Khanh - Che Thai, Che Ba Mau, Banh Tam - Desserts Near Me - Westminster, California

Amazinggggg. This is by far the best location. Even if you're not Vietnamese like me, they will try and help you to see what you would like to order. Must get Thai Che Banh Ran Vietnamese Flan The Thai Che is similar to three colored ice but it's more coconut-y and way better than their three colored ice. The flavor is so good! Banh ran is a deep fried sesame ball with mung bean paste inside. It's incredible!! I can eat a whole bag of these. Their flan just like your normal flan and I love it! Everything else I had was ok including the sweet red rice and banana che. The pandan cake was not great, so I would skip this. read more

9.7/10 - My husband and I blacked out, we kept pointing to all the delicious variety of Chè and they kept bringing out more and then we were like "Oh we want that too!" We bought wayyy too much with our eyes hahaha! Everything was SOO GOOD, even the savory packaged dishes. I honestly can't tell you what was good (don't know the name), and there were a lot of Chè that I've never seen or had before that was so delicious. The aunty helping us was also so nice and spoke good English so we didn't have an issue with communication like I've seen with other reviews. SOO YUMMY! read more

Cool local experience, I would have absolutely no clue how to order here if I didn't have someone who spoke vietnamese so I wish they had a menu with pictures to point at haha. Theres so many interesting cold holding containers of desserts. We got a honeycomb cake which was on the relatively thick side not too much pandan flavor. The che was pretty good w/ varirty of flavors. read more

Let me start by saying it's cash only. There are no signs anywhere that says this, but it is. Luckily, I had cash in the car so it wasn't a problem. 2nd is make sure you know what you want before you get to the counter. Especially if you do not speak Viet. I had to look up most of the things that were there but ended up, loving the Che that I got. You can't really go wrong with any of the items, but it just depends on what you're looking for. They have hot desserts, iced desserts, and different rice pastries. read more

It has been so long since I have visied this store. It was because I was craving for authentic Vietnamese desserts in Little Saigon. This spot is known for its huge variety of chè (sweet dessert soups) and traditional treats, all laid out in colorful displays that make it hard to pick just one. Pricing used to be very affordable but with inflation and after the pandemic, a lot of their items have increased in price and it is now , typically around $3-$5 each. The only negative I can say about this place is that no one speaks English and I had to ask other customes what each dessert was and how good it was. There wasn't any pricing here or menu item. Just point and pay at the end. So if this is your first time here, you have to be very patient OR do what I do and get a variety of desserts and then you will know what flavors you like. Interaction can feel rushed as a lot of customers doesn't want to wait for us English speakers so I just let them go ahead. I got their top menu items here are definitely the chè options, especially chè ba màu (three-color dessert), chè chuối (banana with coconut milk), and chè bắp (sweet corn dessert). If you are a fan of cocount milk then thiese are the ones for you to try! Parking can be a bit of a mixed experience. There is a shared plaza parking lot, but it can get crowded especially on weekends so you might need a little patience or park nearby if it's busy. Overall, this place is a great spot for semi-affordable, authentic Vietnamese desserts with tons of variety. It's not about the service or ambiance but it is all about the sweets, and they definitely deliver and was able to satisfy my for craving delicious . read more

Cash only so make sure to bring cash! Plaza is very hectic and parking will be difficult however so worth it this is my favorite location of this franchise. I keep forgetting to write a review because I eat all the treats before I even get home and get a chance to take a picture but today I was determined. They have a large variety of sweet and savory treats I love them all. You can never go wrong with the corn or banana desserts my top favorites of the warm ches. Then for the savory items I love xoi khuc which are green sticky-rice dumpling balls filled with savory seasoned pork belly and creamy mung bean paste this location also puts 2 pieces of cha chien or fried pork roll on top and I love it it adds texture and more protein to the dish. My other favorite item to get here is Che 3 mau its bean heavy and on the sweeter side so perfect with the ice they serve it with and I've been eating this since childhood and love it. The banh cam duong is really good and delicious and fresh here. The Banh cay chien (deep fried cassava fritters) is super crispy but a little dry for my taste. Over all come here and try what your heart desires as it's all pretty good lots of hits! read more

Was in the shopping center for lunch and saw this place. There was a long line out the door. I love Vietnamese desserts so of course I had to get me some to satisfy my sweet cravings. The place is small, but they have so many choices to choose. The only thing I didn't like is that there are no prices listed anywhere. Not sure if we are being rip off here. They also don't give you a receipt. Guess we just have to trust them? Not sure if they even accept credit card. Other than some of the negatives, their desserts are pretty good, hence, the long line. Would I come back? Maybe, if I'm happened to be shopping in this center. read more

I am a fan of chè and a regular customer here. Today I bought chè chuối (banana ) wich is my favorite desert. After dinner I start eating it. It tastes great but then I start fell something not tasting right in my mouth so I pull it out and thought maybe it just a hair. I ate at many restaurants that have hair in their food but this hair almost make me throw up. It is thick, short and curly with only can come from under the arm or between the legs. I hope that I won't get any diseases or get sick from it, since there is a out break going on now. Btw, years ago I also got a small piece of sharp metal from their chè too. read more

Whenever I'm in Westminster, Hien Khanh is my goto spot for che. Portions are good and for a pretty good price (3/7/2026 - $6 A cup) and of course the taste of the different che is spectacular. It's not your typical fancy sit down and eat kind of shop but rather a grab and go kind of place. Every time I've been, the shop is packed with people, especially the older Viet aunties and uncles, so you know the place is good. As for service, I genuinely adore the ladies who work here, they've always been so sweet and kind and overall provide good service so I really like picking up dessert from here when I'm in the area. Overall rating: Food: 10/10 Service: 10/10 Menu: 10/10 Shop Vibes: 10/10 Price to Overall Dining (POD): 10/10 read more

Thạch Chè Hiền Khánh I've visited this place many times, and every visit has been a wonderful experience. The chè and traditional desserts here taste well balanced and feel very close to authentic Vietnamese flavors. One thing I really love is that their chè always comes with coconut milk. I personally enjoy the rich, creamy taste of coconut milk . To me, chè isn't complete without it. That's why Hiền Khánh is always my first choice whenever I'm craving chè. The ladies working here are very sweet. Sometimes they may seem a little serious, but it never feels unfriendly , maybe it's just because they're older and focused on their work. The shop is clean, cozy, and not too big. There are so many desserts displayed that as soon as you walk in, you'll want to try a little bit of everything. I truly appreciate traditional foods that keep their original flavors, and another thing I enjoy here is the positive working atmosphere. The staff , whether Vietnamese or Mexican work happily and efficiently together, which makes the place feel warm and welcoming. read more

Solid spot for che and other Vietnamese snacks. I tried che 1 and it was not too sweet, which I prefer. There's another che spot in this plaza that makes their desserts way too sweet. There was a line with Viet aunties even on a weekday afternoon, so I knew this had to be the spot for desserts and that it'd be authentic. I want to try their other desserts that other people were purchasing next time I stop by. read more

They have sooo many Asian desserts! They get busy but line goes fast! I got some things which were good! But one item went bad by the time I got home but I am on a road trip so maybe it needed refrigeration. They only accept cash is my issue! So bring cash with you! They also accept zelle but I don't have that so I was limited on how much I could spend. I really liked the rice dessert and pandan roll dessert I got! They are lightly sweet. read more

The Che 3 mau was too sweet We liked the com xôi with coconut The pandan bánh da lợn was slightly crunchy and not like the usual ones with real mung bean but it was good.

My favorite Vietnamese Che (dessert) chain in Little Saigon. It's always hard to choose what to get here as everything is on my favorite list. The cow cakes and pandan cakes are usually my go to items along with the various types of banana desserts smothered in coconut cream. I'm kinda drooling writing this review. Easy parking on a weekday. Please come and create your own adventure. read more

The ladies working are kind of cranky when you ask them questions. I get it. It has been a long weekend for lunar new year festivities, but good customer service is still expected. 3 stars because their food (Che and soi) are very good. Store is very small and can be cramped. Poor lighting. Looks old and dirty. read more

I love this place, it's the OG spot to get Vietnamese desserts. There's never any prices posted so I feel like I'm at one of those food trucks with no prices on the truck and they give me a price based on how they feel that day... lol. We need some posted prices LOL. A lot of things are questionable here (sanitary wise) but it hits the spot. The line is very disorganized. Man I used to like the 3 colored dresser but for almost $7 something, I'll pass until the cravings really hit. I probably won't come back if I don't have to. read more

I had a bad experience here, the employees here are very rude towards customers. Compared to the other Hien Khanh in Garden Grove, the employees there is very nice and polite towards the customers. The employees here should learn how to be more polite and not act entitled towards customers, as they did nothing wrong. Tôi đã có trải nghiệm không tốt tại đây; nhân viên ở đây rất thô lỗ với khách hàng. Trái lại, tại chi nhánh Hien Khanh khác ở Garden Grove, nhân viên lại rất thân thiện và lịch sự. Nhân viên ở đây cần học cách cư xử lịch sự hơn và đừng tỏ thái độ trịch thượng với khách hàng, vì khách hàng đâu có làm gì sai. read more

I stopped by today to pick up a drink and a few yogurts. After grabbing the yogurts, I got in line to check out ,staring at the drink menu when I suddenly heard a woman yelling at the top of her lungs in Vietnamese. She then told me I needed to pay attention because closing one refrigerator door caused another door to pop open. If your refrigerator doors are old enough that closing one opens another, that's an issue with the equipment--not the customer. A polite "Excuse me, could you please close that door?" would have been enough. Yelling across the store was unnecessary and embarrassing LOL. I let it go at the time, but I hope this is addressed so future customers are treated with more respect, but probably not because what else do you expect from an uneducated old lady? read more

1st time visiting this store. Been to another location which I thought had better pricing and bigger portion. The Che here in large was $6.50 and it came in a tiny cup with mostly ice. Thought I got ripped off but I think their small is even smaller. While it was pretty good, still not worth it. Go to the other location instead. read more

Unsure about the hype of this place since I feel like there are probably better locations out there for vietnamese che. Quality is okay.

This place is as authentic as it can get if you want real Vietnamese desserts. There's nothing pretty or fancy about this place. The desserts are in large trays and you just point to whatever you want and they scoop it in to-go containers. It's cash only and there are no tables or chairs. Even if they had tables and chairs, you would not want to sit there. The place is ugly and could use a fresh coat of paint and decor. They are always crazy packed, so they're doing something right! read more

My friend said we needed to make a stop here on our drive past. It did not disappoint. I haven't had a lot of Vietnamese desserts, but I felt like a kid in a candy store. I like to try new foods and flavors and there was so much to choose from. There was a line out the door and it is cash only. The staff worked quickly to move people through. Other staff was refilling items from the kitchen in the back. I bought a tapioca drink (#3), Sponge cake, and sweet rice. I also couldn't pass up the coconut cream with tapioca and plantains (my favorite!), and colorful sponge balls (maybe sour dough?). I'm sorry I don't remember the Vietnamese names, I just pointed and they loaded up my bag. read more

For years, Hien Khanh is our go to Vietnamese dessert place every time we're in Santa Ana. However, since they changed ownership, the quality and service have dropped. Some of my favorites (chicken with sticky rice, sweet banana in coconut milk, etc.) are still decent but half of the things that I used to order didn't taste as good as before. The staff was very unfriendly and acted as though we needed them more than they needed us. Maybe the locals felt the same way. There was no long line or long wait time anymore. They need to improve and do better because there are plenty of better and cleaner dessert places in Santa Ana. read more

Stick to Che and you'll be happy. Dont get side tracked it's very easy to bc everything looks so good. A+ banh tam. Che chuối. Che đau trắng. Xôi bắp. Chế troi nước. Nốt very sweet. Ask for salted me on the side for the xôi and banh tam. B. Bánh cốm. Very dry. C. Bánh xu xe or bánh com already formed in square shape. They put a lot of artificial flavor in there I assume pandan and vanilla but you can taste. Chewiness is there with sweet bean filling but missing coconut. But the artificial taste just off putting. I couldn't finish. Ps. I didn't want to get Che ba mau bc I love bake n che so I'm not sure. But would come back for more authentic ones. I paid cash. Not sure if they took cc. read more

I love this place. It's great. Best part? They accept Zelle!! I've been coming to this place for the past 15+ years. Only thing that has changed would be prices due to inflation. It's great food! I always get the com ruou (in the fridge), the Banh de Lon, the xoi gac (orange sticky rice), and the Che Thai. Their biggest seller is the Che Thai! Parking is tough and lots of homeless around which sucks but everything else is great. Superb service and superb viet dessert. read more

I usually came to Thanh Che Hien Khánh on Westminster . Today it's was closed so I came here the one on Bolsa the parking can be tricky here . This is as authentic as Vietnamese desserts . There's always a line but it moves pretty fast. The lady that served me was wearing gloves and didn't change it when she took the cash from the previous customer. Touching every surface at the cash register. The place only takes cash and doesn't even have enough gloves to change or the staff is just being lazy . They handle cash and pack food for customer as same gloves. I like to came back but I feel no sanitary environment there. Hope everyone pays attention while waiting in that long line. read more
