    Located off Beach Bl in Stanton. A good amount of parking. The place is nice has a good amount of tables and seats. I got the Nutella gluten free bear. It was very good and not too sweet. The gal and guy working here were both helpful, nice and friendly. Overall had a good experience here and the bear was yummy I'll have to come back and get it again along with a drink.

    Blooming Tea
    Robin H.

    I came with my friend as she said this was one of her favorite dessert spots and it was an interesting experience. Interior has enough seating and service was nice. It was relatively clean, the tables were kinda sticky which was meh to me. We got their Blooming Tea (hot), Strawberry Slush, Passion Cherry Pineapple, and Lychee Mousse. The Blooming tea tasted surprisingly subtle and calming, it paired well with the Lychee Mousse as it tasted subtly light with lychee jellies inside. The Passion Cherry Pineapple tasted strong as you can taste more of the cherry's tart. I wasn't really into it as much as the Lychee. The Strawberry Slush was just ok, it tasted diluted at first then got better.

    Yelp challenge, 100 challenge, #2025 So excited to try their cute desserts Tried the yuzu mango mousse (compared to French mousse cakes this is definitely a very Asian oriented dessert - not super sweet) it doesn't have a strong yuzu nor mango flavor (not the most delicate and smoothest mousse I've had but I still enjoyed it). I need to try all their desserts still- will edit once I try more of them Ambiance - cute cafe with great tables and couches to work at Service - super nice staff

    Left to Right: Pineapple Cherry Passion, Dragonfruit Berry, Yuzu Mango Mousse

    I been to this place a couple times to satisfy the sweet tooth. Super sick eye candy, petite sizes, and ranges about $9 a pop. From sweetest/heaviest to lightest/refreshing: Dragonfruit Berry, Pineapple Cherry Passion, Yuzu Mango Mousse There's usually one person working hard and polite there. Not much else to say on that end I just get my dessert n get straight to it. The store looked like some cool art deco interior, with really comfortable seats. My ONE complaint, is that I can never seem to catch their dessert specials that aren't in the cases. The really pretty ones you see on this yelp, IG, or their website. They say that they MIGHT get their dry ice on Saturdays which is part of the special. I kinda just wish it was more available, I'm certain it would earn this last star

    Food: 4 Service: 4 Ambiance: 4 The Spoon such a neat little spot to enjoy a cup of tea and dessert. When we first walked in, the desserts were beautifully displayed, though no one was at the counter right away. Once the lady came out, she was friendly--though not overly so. We ordered 2 desserts which looked super cute and were definitely tasty, though it didn't completely blow me away. The tea was served in charming little cups that added a nice touch to the experience. Overall, it was a lovely and relaxing stop--perfect for an afternoon treat or a quiet conversation over sweets. Nothing over-the-top, but I still really enjoyed the atmosphere and would definitely come back when I'm craving something sweet

    Vietnamese coffee & mango cheesecake
    Susan A.

    I came in at about 4pm on a Tuesday. The cafe was completely empty. I asked for recommendations on a dessert and was told the mango cheesecake was very popular. I ordered a Vietnamese coffee and a mango cheesecake. The cheesecake was tart and sweet and creamy. Very tasty but quite pricey at $8. The Vietnamese coffee was also quite good but they only filled the cup 75% and use was too much ice. I think I got about 5 or 6 drinks out of it. It was $5. I sat on a comfy couch with a little bit of sun coming through the window. The visit was enjoyable but o won't be back.

    Guava cheesecake, ganache dulce de leche

    Overall a casual quiet spot. The desserts were decent but nothing to write home about. Nice if you want individual sized desserts and seems like a nice gift. The service was decent, the bring out the cakes to you on plates which is nice! Wouldn't mind going again when in the area but not itching to go back. Next time I'm intrigued to get a drink. Friend said it was quite good

    Easy parking + long lines + hard to find tables + overcrowded for small cafe. Ordered the nutella mousse bear ($9) and the matcha tiramisu ($8). Would not recommend any of these items as they did not taste good nor were they worth the price.

    Ube cheesecake
    Julie S.

    Checked out The Spoon with my daughter. Wow- the ube cheesecake was delicious and so pretty. It was not too sweet and was just so tasty- was very pleasantly surprised. Want to go back to try some other desserts. Nice ambiance.

    Love this place.
    Hyun Ju P.

    I love this place so much. Their drinks are my favorite. It is my go to Ube and Matcha drink place. I hope a lot of people know about this place so they never close such a joy to come here. The staff is super friendly and I love that they have great music and great decor.

    Nutella bear, lychee pig, matcha tiramisu
    Stella C.

    This is a cute cafe with an assortment of cakes and drinks down the street from Knottsberry Farm. We went on a Saturday afternoon and it was quiet with plenty of comfortable seating. The selection was a bit limited when I got there so I didn't get to try everything I wanted, but they did refill the kiosk as the afternoon went on. Overall, the desserts here are really aesthetic and there's more cakes I would like to try if I'm in the area next time. As for each: The earl grey bear I came for was decent; it kinds of tastes like ice cream, was super cute, but is lacking a bit of something extra. The lychee pig was so-so. I liked the matcha tiramisu the best! The smoking jasmine was a miss for me; the lychee inside the mousse was pretty sludgy and tart, which I thought did not match well with the jasmine. The cakes were also smaller than expected; the three of us shared four desserts. Free parking lot behind the cafe; just make sure not to park in a residential apartment spot. Service is nice!

    This place is so cute!!!! I love the desserts here! The cakes are do lovely, I didn't even want to take a bite of it! The service is quick. I do recommend the cakes as a gift or even to enjoy for yourself!

    A lot of comfortable seating areas

    It's probably judgmental of me, but I have this idea that anything that looks good will not taste good, but I was proven wrong. These desserts are aesthetic and so good that it's hard to stop eating them. I love Asian dessert flavors, and they nailed every single one: matcha, pandan, Thai tea, ube, and more. The pastry chefs are so talented at capturing the flavors and textures of a delicate, stunning dessert that I almost didn't want to eat it... Almost. Let me preface by saying everything we tried was genuinely good. However, I did have favorites. My favorite was the flower pot which had a warm, pumpkin-spice sponge cake base and cream. A close second was the Thai tea panna cotta which really encapsulated the flavors of the drink into a small little dessert. My family liked the matcha tiramisu and pandan coconut ube bear more than the above but it's all personal preference. I was also surprised by how much I liked the drinks. I got the creme brulee coffee because I was craving something sweet, but I was surprised that it reminded me more of egg coffee and that the coffee itself wasn't that sweet. On the contrary, my mom's ube latte was sweet and had a good balance of the ube and coffee flavors. The pandan latte is misleading because it doesn't look like it has any coffee at all but it is a prominent flavor when you drink it.

However, we were really disappointed in how they handled our order. We placed our order a couple of weeks ago and received our confirmation about a week later that they were ready to be picked up. However, the email only indicated that they were ready to be picked up anytime Mon-Sun at their popup location. When we arrived, the told us that they had taken back our order because it had been over 5 days and no one had picked them up yet. Then they told us they would try and see if they could recreate our order. TBH, that is the absolute most ridiculous way to do business. No where on their site did it say it had to be picked up within a certain timeframe, AND no where on their confirmation pick up email did it say it had to be picked up by a certain timeframe either. On top of that, they said that we should have called them. Um no, it's your small business, you have left over orders that need to be picked up, then you need to reach out to the customers and let them know they only have so many more days to pick them up before they are forfeited. That's how all small business, food-related or not, handle thing, especially when there are timeframe constraints. To be clear, the time constraint was not an issue IF they had even expressed there is one, but they never did. Please clean up on your business practices, it's very important to communicate with your customer base.
