Literally one of our favorite dessert spots in the IE! The owners are great, the fruit is always super fresh and a large group can visit no problem.

Their acai and pitaya are legit! Fresh and just pure bliss! Cute and friendly Asian lady. Decent sized seating with tables and bar.

mango Shaved ice, it was sooo good. An healthier option than ice cream to beat the heat this summer.

FIRST TIME here and we felt the great energy and positive vibes right away from the great customer service. We were not sure what to order because we found a picture of some mango pudding with shaved ice and it looked great... SONG OF THE DAY to play along to this YELP REVIEW: ISN'T SHE LOVELY by STEVIE WONDER... Isn't she lovely Isn't she wonderful Isn't she precious Less than 15 minutes away from Kaiser Permanente... We got a customized bowl of mango and coconut bowl! Everything looked so healthy and full of super foods!!! SERVICE: A++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ I would buy anything she's selling. She was super nice, patient and listened to what we wanted. And that's the best kind of service in the WORLD! Bravo!! I had trouble opening the door to the restroom and she came to the rescue!! Bright future ahead for this hardworking lady ;) Thank you so much... Parking: Enough spaces for short term parking. ROCK ON TOI MOI!!!!

Such a lovely juice bar! I was in the area and craving fresh squeezed juice. My expectations were low because it's so hard to find a place that actually squeezes the juice fresh to order. Most places I've been to are a disappointment using juice concentrate or pre-juicing. It's not the same. But here, it's truly an experience. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful. I ordered the drink #2 which has oranges, carrots, ginger, lemon, and pineapple. It was the best juice I ever had. I could taste all the flavors. The parking lot is small, but we had no trouble finding parking. It's nice and quiet and they offer free wifi. It's a great place to work if you're on the go.

It has been many years since I've been here and I was craving an açaí bowl! The location is not hard to find. It's between Tyler and Magnolia , almost right next to the post office, on Hole. It stands out with its colorful pastel colors, looks like a little house. There is limited parking, as most of the property is next to an auto body shop. When walking in, there is a lot of space and so much bright light coming in through the multiple windows. There are bars and small tables lined up along the shop. Their menu is on the wall, written on a scroll from the looks of it. They have juices, different types of smoothies, coffee and açaí bowls. They also have custard and ice cream. I ordered the #1 from the juices and the açaí berry bowl. I added peanut butter to it. They have 3 types of sizes for the açaí and 2 for the juices. My order didn't take long, probably around 5 minutes! The employee was very helpful and offered me a bag to put in my bowl. The juice is very healthy and green. The açaí bowl had a lot of toppings in a small bowl. I enjoyed it! Will be back!

The build your own bowl really gives you a good bang for your buck! The staff are very friendly it is usually kinda packed but they move really quickly! Restaurant is pretty clean and lively!

Bowls were good but slightly overpriced. I did like the tropical bowl! The service was great!

I recently went to riverside to revisit a local college and along the way I found this gem of a place called toi moi. It has been a blisteringly hot day and I needed a smoothie. The one that she made for me was absolutely insanely good. And it was only $11 for the 24 ounce one. The woman making it gave incredible service and it was just amazing. Can't wait to come back

Really good service an older woman attended to us and it is so amazing so many fresh options with so much fruit and so many different types of things to drizzle

Build your own bowls. One half pitaya and half açaí, The other half coconut half açaí!

The yummiest and most fresh açaí bowls you will ever eat! It's such a cute place, everything is very clean and well kept. What struck me most was just how fresh the fruit was, bright and so appetizing ! The lady that helped us, I believe she is the owner, was very kind and generous with the bowl. It's such a hidden gem and definitely deserves more business.

I love this place ! They have pre set options for smoothie bowls. They sell standard smoothies and you can add or remove just about anything. I love the build your own option personally. I enjoy picking and choosing something different each time. They aren't cheap but most smoothie places aren't. They are maybe a little more than a large chain but large chains just throw things together. I have yet to come here and have a bad bowl. The shop itself is very small so I would recommend to go but you can sit inside they do have some casual seating. The parking lot is my least favorite because it shared with a shop and it's a one way in one way out spot. If you can park a little further at the next door place it makes it a little easier to go in and out. The staff is very nice and they are happy to answer any questions you have. It's a great local spot that's definitely worth your time. My only sadness is they aren't open longer ! It's my go to when I am in the mood for a bowl. They also serve ice cream I believe so if you bring someone who doesn't like smoothie bowls this would be the spot since they offer so much more. They also have juices which I have yet to even try. Something for everybody

Toi Moi is a cute little hidden gem. I was initially a little bit overwhelmed because there are SO many options to choose from!! Whether you're in the mood for some milk tea or frozen yogurt, I think this is a great place to try for dessert. I got the Italian ice + custard with fruit toppings. Owner is very nice and let's you sample the ice flavors. The custard is not too heavy or creamy and goes really well with the ice. I personally liked it better than Frostbites'! Worth a try if you're in the area! read more

I adore this little juice/coffee bar. It looks like everything is fresh. My only thing that makes it a four and not a five is that there's usually only one to two people working. Usually the manager on floor. So the time it takes to get what I came in for is too long for me. Once the order is placed, it feels like 10 minutes til it is out. You can see they are scrambling to get the ingredients for the recipe that you've ordered. That time is too long for me, lol! But, it's a good spot to get milk tea, or something fresh. They also offer almond milk or coconut to substitute cream or milk, which is a plus for me. read more

Wasn't expecting what I saw but super cute place! It looks like a little shack from the outside but the inside is very decorative, cute, and cozy! The bright colors and decorations made it feel so energetic. They have a lot on the menu from Italian ice, to ice cream, to bowls, and smoothies. I went with the Italian ice and custard and was not disappointed! It's not too sweet not too heavy. I personally feel it might be better than Frostbites.. Toppings selection is like any other frozen yogurt/dessert place but the presentation of it all makes it too pretty to eat! read more

Close to home, refreshing, and healthy! This place is simple, yet satisfying. I was very pleased with their Pichuberry bowl. The Pichuberry is from the Andes Mountains in Peru, it has a citrus/orange flavor to it. I normally get the acai or the pitaya bowl, but this was new, as I had never heard of it. It was different of course, but I'm glad I tried it, and I definitely recommend it! This is the only place I've seen it at, therefore I'm giving this place a 5 star! Service was great, I didn't wait, and was pleased with the cleanliness. The decor and overall atmosphere is very nice. The pink colored building outside is also a nice touch. Gotta hand it to them for the creativity! My go to for bowls from now on. And I can't wait to try their ice creams! read more

Everything that I tried here was ok. The pineapple dole whip, grape, blue berry and green apple flavored Italian ice and their tea and boba was all ok. They also had a lot of juices, smoothies and mochi there but I didn't have a chance to try them yet. Maybe my expectations for this place was too high because I got excited seeing all the great Yelp reviews. In my opinion, I felt like this place was like any other dessert ice cream/boba place. Nothing really stood out to me or made me want to really come back. They no longer have the fruits on top of ice cream and I came mainly for that because of the pictures. I was so sad... read more

Had to check this place out due to great reviews and of course great reviews on yelp! This place is definitely a hole in the wall but don't be fooled cause the service and variety of ice creams, smoothies, açaí, boba teas, pitaya, Italian ice, soft serve and mochi were on spot. They are open late if you are craving any listed above and for the price and service is totally worth it. Service was spot on, greeted by Kimberly when we walked in and she let us sample almost everything. Never has pitaya before but the smoothie was defiantly a healthy treat. If you want it sweet then sweetener can be added and it comes out great. There variety of ice cream to choose from was great and is prefect for a cold or summer day I didn't get the Italian ice but it's defiantly a nice refreshing treat for the summer. So yes I'm defiantly coming back for that. Mochi was yummy and guess what they have a flavor you Anit gonna find in the stores: cookies and cream. Yummy! I wasn't too big of a fan on there soft serve as it taste different to me from most place. Can't describe it but I guess you can be the judge for that one. Plus they didn't have any dole whip pineapple flavor so that was a bummer. Overall with such a great variety I think any kid or adult would find something they like. read more

It has a hot pink sign and has interior and exterior seating options. You can park in parking structures or side streets in order to walk towards this location. On a hot summer day, they were blasting the AC which was super appreciated! We came in to cool off and enjoy a beer, after reading their signs! Of course, we opted for a glazed donut, too. The guy at the front was nice and friendly! Super chill. We took out items and sat towards the side, under their large TV. He switched on the TV and ended up playing the World Cup game!! I had drank a nice and chilled Space Dust IPA from the tap and my partner had a Blue Moon. I was very delighted by their glazed donuts which were massive! For $6, it was bigger than our faces; I'm guessing x3 the size of a regular donut. I enjoyed it because it was sweet, doughy, and perfectly glazed. A twist of a donut shop, but for their variety of drinks, I don't mind it! Loved the experience. Thank you for having us!

Their coffee, tea, and baked goods are fantastic, but the main reason I love this place is because it's very cozy and the perfect place to read, study, catch up with a friend, or go on a date. They have a special, themed menu that changes every month. There is almost always seating available. They have a small book exchange, often sell local art, have cute merch, and just opened up a bakery right next door with extra seating. I'm kind of a snobbish third-wave coffee person and although this place isn't trying to be that way, it still is my favorite spot because of the overall vibe, how genuinely kind and down to earth the baristas are, and how comfortable it is. A lot of coffee shops are so brightly lit and trying to be hipster still in 2026, but this place is just kind of homey and the classic cozy coffee shop we all want to go to. So if you're a hardcore coffee connoisseur and are looking for the highest quality coffee, this might not be your spot. If you're looking for something with yummy drinks and baked goods with a chill environment you'll be very comfortable in, this is 100% your spot.

They serve it slightly toasted and warm. I didn't know and they don't ask, so now I know what to request. The ambiance is bright and cute. It gives me college vibes. I love all the black and yellow decor. It's very well branded. I enjoyed the music playing in the back ground. If in the area, you need to give them a try. Their menu is simple and done well.

Ambiance is not the best, as the interior of the restaurant can feel dated--the art does not help--and the booths that comprise the bulk of the seating is private (which I love) but always dirty. Despite the service and ambiance leaving something to be desired, the lunch is great option in the downtown area. I do no recommend the breakfast--the potatoes lack flavor and many items are better made at home, imo. My go-to lunch options Grilled Smokey without onions- a fancy grilled cheese w tomato Tomato soup pairs very well with the grilled cheese Grill Smokey with bacon- solid but sometimes I don't want bacon/meat Tuna melt- so good and I tend to not like celery Black bean soup- solid Upgrade to the pesto pasta salad OR the loaded potato salad Don't recommend the pastrami sandwich-the meat was lowkey gross Baked good/desserts Princess Cake- I'm royalty and this cake hits the right notes and spots Sticky buns- get it Cinnamon bun- get it Cookies (molasses)- yummy and good texture Bagels- great quality bagels to add to a meal Baked breads (when in stock)- love fresh bread and recommend the sourdough

As far as options go, I think there's a decent selection of more unique syrups for coffees. They do change it up throughout the year. The drinks here are definitely more of a premium price point, but I think they're generally good. On this particular trip, I wanted to try their new syrup flavor (it was some form of orange zest, or something similar?), but noticed my latte had no real flavor in it after a few sips. Upon looking at the receipt, the person who took my order just gave me a regular cafe latte and didn't add the syrup I requested. The coffee was fine, but I would have liked trying something new. I have gotten several of their food options before, and I think that some of them are well-priced for the portion and some can be more on the expensive side. I think the avocado toast was pretty robust and was a good value. The steak and eggs are somewhat hit or miss, and I have had it multiple times. The cut of the meat can be chewy at times, and then also more lean and tender other times. Sometimes it comes with large pieces of chewy fat, which isn't quite to my taste. The sandwich options generally are a good value. I do kind of wish they switched up their menu a bit more often, since this current menu is rather basic and they have had more interesting food options before. Overall, a decent choice for a more premium coffee, tea, and food for the Downtown/UCR area of Riverside. Service is okay, and I have had somewhat mixed experiences with that. The employees generally seem pleasant and they're nice, but I have gotten incorrect orders at least a couple of times. During this particular visit, in which the photos are from, I had to ask two different people to get extra napkins. Our actual server was the first to acknowledge, then possibly forgot and didn't come back.

Cute little ice cream shop located directly across the street from Tyler mall. Such a hidden gem!! I like the layout- chalkboard walls where all the menu items are listed. Very nice handwriting haha. Menu includes boba/milk teas, smoothies, italian ice creams, coffee, dole whip. I went with a group and we ordered several italian ice creams and a taro milk tea with boba. Boba boy said best boba he's ever had! Taro taste was light but super excellent!!! Italian icers= we all LOVED our ice creams/italian ice. We had all gone to frostbites a few weeks prior to coming here and we loved the italian ice better HERE! The custard (heavier ice cream) was heavenly. The italiian ice flavors were delicious!! So tart and tangy and just what I like. We got several flavor combinations and they were all yummy. Pricing is great! Very reasonable. It was a Sunday evening and they seemed to be out of a lot of items (dole whip) and other things so maybe don't visit late at night because they might run out of what you want. read more

I love this place! I think this place is relatively new since I was just recently able to check in on Yelp. Anywho, I've tried about 3 juices so far and they all tasted so fresh :) I tried the very berry smoothie, the fruit and green 1, and some other fruit juice. Fresh fruits and veggies are really emphasized here since they also have fruit toppings for their italian ice/custard option. My boyfriend got the italian ice/custard and they really don't skimp on the custard! He got strawberry ice and vanilla custard with some berries for toppings. I looooooove their vanilla custard and it tastes just like ice cream hehe Overall I really like their selection and I definitely would come back if I was ever in the Riverside area, especially since I have a bogo free coupon ;) read more

Toi Moi is one of my favorite places to get a nice cup of juice! Literally better than Juice it up, Jamba Juice and so on - in my opinion. It's kinda a hole in the wall down the street from the Tyler Mall, but that's what's great about it. From the outside it's a small building but once you're inside it's clean, colorful, lots of space to sit and relax and grab a refreshing drink. I like the juices here because there's nothing added and there's no foam at the top of the cup taking up space like the other chain juice bars do. I always get the number 7 juice and add pineapple - it's BOMB, and super healthy! I haven't tried the Italian ice yet, but I'm honestly in love with the juices and the staff . Go go go! read more
