    two cups of coffee with whipped cream on top

    My go to for iced coffee and blended drinks!! Tobara is a gem. I've recommended them to so many of my family members and they always stock up on their delicious variety of fresh bread. Their conchas are to die for. The customer service is great! I will visit a few times a month because I crave their unique coffee taste!!

    The ice cream is so yummy! I got the matcha and pure milk. My honey got the pineapple, but I…read moredidn't get to try his. The matcha w/ red bean taiyaki is good, but it doesn't need the extra flair, honestly. So tasty on its own. I'm not a huge ice cream fan, but this was really enjoyable. Service was quick too, if that is important to anybody. Definitely will come back!

    It looks aesthetically appealing in their photos online but it wasn't as good as it looked. Saw…read morethis off Yelp so decided to try it. We were the only customers. The girl working the counter was a young girl just getting by her summer day job. She was nice but timid. It was our first time there and a little more energy on her end could've been better. Ordered the ube swirl, pineapple dole whip, mung bean taiyaki, and a custard one togo. The taiyaki that goes onto the ice cream is a lot bigger than one we ordered to go. I thought it would be as big, but when I got it, it was so much smaller and flat. Also, the taiyaki that goes on top of the ice cream was old. It had been sitting there for a while or was made earlier as it was hard and difficult to bite. The red bean inside I also assumed was a paste like how they make the Japanese version, however there were whole pieces in there. It was okay, but I thought they'd be like paste. Overall, the only thing that was good was the ube swirl and the pineapple dole whip. It was also extremely warm in the shop, like no AC in the triple digits summer heat. Had to eat it elsewhere. I most likely won't be back.

    Found this place on Instagram, so we drove down from Pasadena...and it was well worth the drive…read more The store is super cute inside with a fun seating area. I wished we had arrived earlier to be able to enjoy more of the sold out offerings, but next time we'll arrive right when they open. We ordered a dozen crinkle cookies for a Mother's Day lunch - enjoying the sweet ube and the spiced thai tea versions. Both were great compliments to each other - more perfectly sweet and the other a bit more herbal. The chocolate chip cookie was perfect - nice crunchy edges and slightly gooey soft inside. The ube tres leches was a little disappointing as there wasn't any tres leches cake at the bottom, just crumbly graham crackers resting below exquisite ube mousse. It could have been mislabeled, but it was essentially just ube mousse with crumbly graham crackers for texture. The staff were friendly and the store is so fun!

    Finally had a chance to try this place service was great…read moreand staff was very helpfully Place was kept clean they had a variety of different desserts and drinks I got the ube tres leche and ube blondie brownie They were both good but the ube brownie was my favorite! I'm Mexican so the l tres leches was a little dry to my liking and lacked the ube flavor in my opinion I will return to try the other treats they have So if you're in the montebello area and haven't been here definitely give them a try I got a latte as well and it was well made

    I drive past all the time but had no idea this bakery was here. I'm told they've been in business…read morein this location six years. Well, thanks to National Cheesecake Day, and a forwarded text about a free small cheesecake, I stopped in. AMBIANCE: This place is selfie ready. Modern clean cute. Check out my pics. 5/5 FOOD: They've got cheesecake tartlets, mini cheesecakes, cheesecake cookies, cheesecake biscotti. They have plain, mango, strawberry, ube, burnt basque....when I got home, mom and I dove into the mini burnt basque cheesecake....its not pretty, but it's creamy lite and delicious. 5/5 Highest compliment I can pay is...it's not sweet. This one is a subtle lemony flavor. 5/5 Can't wait to try my free mini strawberry cheesecake. Or the free ube tartlet. And in the morning with coffee, the biscotti. The bag of biscotti is the one way to sample all their cheesecake flavors. SERVICE: 10 of 5...exceptional service. The young man behind the counter told me I could get a 10 percent discount if I had a same day receipt from the Panda Express next door. Since I was planning to go there, he credited back my purchases, held my desserts while I went next door to buy lunch. A few minutes later I returned, he looked at the receipt date to verify, and yay, discount, so of course I bought more. Smart strategy. Great customer service = customer spends more!! Thanks for the free ube tartlet.

    New places adventures continues…read more. Visited Uncle Tetsu on a recommendation as being a place to catch some delicious sweets . The place is owned by Panda Express - lets go! Upon entry I was greeted with a smile and very friendly welcome. Mentioned that it was my first time visiting and asked for some customer favorites. Say no more. I was offered sample after sample and what a nice add. 4-samples later I placed my order. A Mango Burnt Basque Cheesecake was the choice and a iced matcha latte to wash it down. All in all friendly staff, nicely kept venue, and quite a few samples. This place is New Adventures Places approved
