Drinks: Uji Matcha, 2 teas and a Brown Sugar Bobo. The Uji Matcha was watery and thin, but I still had difficulty sucking the drink through the thick straw (I got boba). I didn't get to taste any of the boba since I had a hard time drinking it. It had more of a "pure" matcha taste and wasn't that sweet. The Brown Sugar Bobo was watery and thin as well. No comment on the teas, they were for another family member and she didn't update me on whether she liked them or not. Ambiance: It's a cute place. It was clean with some seating inside and outside. Parking: Located in a shopping plaza next to an Albertson's and Young Dong Tofu. Park by the Wells Fargo if you don't want to deal with the high traffic of people entering/leaving the plaza.

"You can do both!" I am so glad we did. The strawberries were frozen but still nice, sweet and slightly tart. The mangoes were fresh and amazing.

Absolutely Delicious - A Must-Visit for Ube Lovers! Even…read morethough we recently moved away from Chino Hills to Henderson, NV, Cafe 86 remains one of our absolute favorite spots that we miss the most! Every time we visited, it was a guaranteed hit for the whole family. On our last go-around, we loaded up on our favorites, and as always, they did not disappoint: Ube Tres Leches: The undisputed star of the show. It is incredibly moist, perfectly sweet, and has the most amazing, rich ube flavor. You cannot leave without trying this! Halo Halo: Packed with all the traditional goodies and so refreshing. It's the BOMB. Ube Truffles: Bite-sized perfection. Rich, fudgy, and the ultimate little treat to take home (if they even make it to the car). Jasmine Milk Tea & Sea Salt Coffee: The perfect drink pairings. The jasmine milk tea is wonderfully fragrant and refreshing, while the sea salt coffee hits that perfect balance of bold, savory, and sweet. The atmosphere is always welcoming, and it's just the best place to treat the kids or catch up with friends. Chino Hills is so lucky to have this gem. If you haven't been yet, go change that immediately!

I honestly did not do my research before coming... an Instagram post sent me, so I just ordered the one item (two of them, actually). I have to try more next time because after seeing the menu, I wanted more. The Halo Halo had flan, corn flakes, ube ice cream and other jiggly things inside it. It was very refreshing, you just have to give it a little "mix mix" (Halo Halo). Excited to try more!

We ordered a mochi mango and really liked it! The mochi was really good. It did seem however that it was a lot of cream and mochi inside rather than being mango? Seemed like mango consisted of 30% or less. Still a pretty good drink. You can order at the kiosk but one thing to note is that their text notifications seem to be a bit lagging. Waited about 10 minutes and went in to check on our order. There were a bunch of drinks on the counter that seemed to have been ready for awhile, including ours. Not a big deal but one thing to note if you plan or ordering and shopping somewhere else.

I've been wanting to try Omomo in Irvine but never had the chance and was in this area, so I thought why not! I've heard good things. There was no line. Staff was friendly and patient answering my questions. I always like to see if boba shops have unique drinks that stores typically don't have and if not, usually go with the original milk tea. But the Magnolia tea caught my eye. I got the magnolia milk tea and the boba was fresh, soft, but with the right perfect amount of chew! The staff did tell me it's "very floral" and I was a bit worried because I'm not a big fan of floral drink, but honestly, it wasn't that floral. There was a pretty subtle hint of floral-ness, but I can't make the distinction of the "magnolia" flavor. It's similar to maybe camelia? The boba and tea definitely were more prominent. I appreciated that I can taste a stronger tea flavor though. Service was really fast! They are well staffed. I didn't get to do what I came for, but at least the drink did not disappoint! I would come back to try other drinks!

I'm not vegan but I was raving about this burrito for weeks after trying it. It comes with a salad that they dress up in a vinaigrette and two sauces to try, one cilantro and one (I forget what the red one is but I liked the cilantro more). The burrito basically tastes and has the texture of a chorizo and potato burrito and the sauce gives it the kick it needs. I've also tried their sea salted caramel latte and it's a bit too sweet for breakfast but very tasty.

I found this coffee shop near me so I decided to go with my sister in law. We arrived 10mins before closing time so I was excited to make it on time. Apparently the ridiculously rude young lady working there wasn't having it. She took a couple minutes to take our order since putting in the patio furniture was more important. When she finally finished, she came to the counter with a horrible attitude asking what we wanted. My sister in law wanted a hot coffee and she refused to served it since the machine was "off" already. Then she proceeded to order a banana iced coffee (don't know the name) and again the lady refused to make it since it was one of their most "complicated" drinks to make. We ended up ordering two "quick and easy" ice drinks. We asked if she was working alone... this lady only had rude comments and answers to say (smart ass). It is unfortunate to be treated that way specially when it was my first time there. It is also very unfortunate that the Spanish Latte I ordered was delicious, BUT I will never be returning or recommending this place due to the horrible customer service. I have family in the coffee business and customer service is always a priority, not at this location. Very disappointed with whoever hired her and trained her.

Super busy Sunday here!

We had an amazing experience with The Dough Life at our wedding. It was an absolute hit with everyone in attendance, and I can't sing their praises enough. Hazel and Henry were a pleasure to work with. From our initial inquiries to the actual event, they made the entire process incredibly smooth and stress-free. As for the churros themselves--oh my goodness, they were phenomenal and were a highlight of the evening! Our guests couldn't get enough, and I lost count of how many compliments we received about them. If you're in search of a unique and delightful addition to your event, I couldn't recommend The Dough Life enough. Thank you for making our wedding day even more memorable! read more

I walked into this donut shop thinking I'd just grab a quick snack. Big mistake. These donuts ruined every other donut for me. Krispy Kreme? Dunkin'? Sorry y'all, you've been replaced. First bite: pure happiness. Second bite: questioning my life choices for not finding this place sooner. By the third donut, I was already planning my will so I could leave instructions to bury me with a dozen. The staff? Way too friendly. Like, how dare they smile at me while I'm making poor nutritional decisions at 8am. The coffee? Strong enough to make me believe I could run a marathon (spoiler: I just ran back for another glazed). read more

Talk about having delicious desserts. I couldn't stop eating the mini doughnuts, they were so tasty. Not only were they delicious but the staff was so friendly and full of smiles. When I walked up to the table they explained to us all the options they had, what the favorites were, and everything. There was a batch of doughnuts on the table which I was going to grab but they stopped me and said they would make a fresh batch for me. It was such a great and yummy experience. I can't wait to have an event so they can be a part of it. Love love love love them. read more

They arrived on time, set up super quickly, and were so patient and accommodating when a few other things at the party were running behind. They even stayed a little extra to make sure they were able to serve everyone, which I really appreciated. I had also made a little custom menu sign for their setup to match the rest of my son's birthday theme, and they were so happy to incorporate it and use it at their station. It was such a small thing, but I really appreciated how open they were to making their setup feel like part of the overall party! One of my favorite touches was that they packaged up the leftover ice cream into mini pints for us to keep. I've honestly never had a catering vendor do that before, and it was such a sweet surprise! I've been enjoying the ice cream at home since the party and it tastes just as amazing. The cookie ice cream sandwiches themselves were SO good. I loved that the cookies were served warm, making them extra soft and perfect with the ice cream. Also, they accommodated allergy concerns we had with some of our guests and took the pre-cautions to do separate serving scoopers!! Overall, we had such a great experience with Chunk N Chip.
