Super great atmosphere, awesome spot to study! Employees very welcoming, and food was delicious.

Fresh coconut drinks! Amazing seasonal flavors. Recommend the puddings as well as the drinks!

Tong Sui - Guava Lemon FTW - Desserts Near Me - San Mateo, California

First time trying Tong Sui, and we're definitely fans! There was a small line when we arrived, but it moved pretty quickly. I wanted to try their Rosie Lychee, which is one of their popular puddings, but they were sold out. I ended up getting the Mango Mochi Coconut Pudding instead, and it was really good! My son got the Coconut Ice Bomb, and we also ordered a Melon Melody. Everything was delicious, refreshing, and not overly sweet. Definitely a great spot to grab dessert after a good meal. We'll be back to try the Rosie Lychee next time! read more

After trying Tong Sui for my first time this week, I'm officially hooked! Their coco avocado drink (less sweet) is so smooth, light, and refreshing on a warm afternoon. I appreciate it is not a sweet drink, which sets it apart from most drinks these days. I never knew I would love avocado as part of a dessert. I can have that coco avocado drink everyday, just that good! read more

We ordered the - taro ube sago, black sesame, and mango mochi! Top favs were the taro ube and mango mochi! Such a cute spot and service was nice and easy read more

In decor she offerings, place is very similar to other Tong Suis. I was able to get black sedan and durian. The closure of B Street allows for outdoor seating which expands this place from a purely takeout location to a place where one can have some dessert and feel the energy of fellow diners and walking pedestrians. As far as I know, this place does not have a restroom, but the ones at the local theater are open to the public and clean. Service was as expected: fast and friendly. read more

I am a huge coconut lover - this place hits all the right notes! The avocado coconut smoothie is pure perfection. So smooth, simple, and not too sweet to make you feel heavy. I would get this over and over again, and would also love to try their whole menu because everything looks good. Tip: you can ask for a sample if you're unsure on flavors! The workers are so nice here, even when it gets a little busy. read more

Great spot for some dessert after a meal. I got the Coco Mango and it was a refreshing and tasty drink with mango bits. The drink was flavorful and I thought the sweetness was just right. I haven't tried their coconut pudding yet, so I'm curious to give them a try if I'm here again! read more

A bit pricey but the coconut desserts are delicious. I love the glass jars and the incentive to bring them back for a free pudding. Anything mango and coconut are a must try! read more

Personally I prefer Melo Melo, but this place isnt as sweet if you prefer that. Mochi mango was fine and sticky rice mango was ok. When I came the 2 employees were both in the back making drinks. There was a couple other customers waiting. There was obviously a really large to-go order Im assuming from a workplace ordering for a bunch of employees because it was lunch hour on a Monday. Had to wait ~15 minutes for 2 jars that are already made. read more

I'm a huge coconut lover, and honestly, no bottled coconut drink compares to the real thing. Every drink I've tried here tastes incredibly fresh, like you're drinking straight from an actual coconut. The coconut water with strawberry is refreshing and yummy. I also accidentally ordered the coconut pudding thinking it was just coconut water, and it ended up being such a lovely surprise, especially coming from someone who usually hates pudding. The texture reminded me of fresh coconut meat mixed with coconut water, which made for a delicious combination. Everything tastes super refreshing and hydrating. I'll definitely be coming back! read more

Walking around San Mateo after dinner, we decided to pick up some dessert. I've previously enjoyed Tong Sui's assortment of coconut puddings and saw a new seasonal, roasted yam on their list. Also, I've never tried their drinks, so this would be a first for me. ***OUR PICKS*** COCONUT ICE BOMB WITH MANGO ~ Fresh coconut water, coconut milk, fresh mango purée. This was a lightly sweetened refreshing drink. Perfect, if you don't want anything rich and heavy. I added crystal boba for a chewy, bouncy texture for an otherwise silky, smooth drink. Lovely, but somehow I ended up missing sago. I guess too many shops add sago that I've become accustomed to having it included when mango and coconut are together. Silly me! 4/5 ROASTED YAM COCONUT PUDDING CRÈME BRÛLÉE ~ coconut pudding topped with fresh toasted sweet potato purée and house special crème brûlée. This one was really yummy from top to bottom! Thoroughly enjoyed every bite of this! Somewhat rich but not at all heavy. If you like yam, this one's for you! 5/5 I walked in and used their kiosk, since the cashier was busy getting a previous order ready. This spot is brightly lit and clean. Service was efficient and pleasant. And the desserts that they make actually taste and feel healthy. If that's even possible being a dessert. It might seem expensive for a small jar of pudding (roughly $10), but it's made with quality ingredients! That's why I'm a repeat customer and a big fan! read more

It's been a while since I've had tong sui. Since melo melo popped up in the bay, we've been going there a lot more. However, in my mind, I've always thought they were pretty similar. Well I recently did a side by side comparison and they are def not the same! The texture of tong sui is much more firm, more akin to smooth coconut jelly, whereas melo melo is more soft and silky, almost like a custardy pudding. Personally, I like the texture of melo melo a lot more - I just melts in your mouth! I also like the flavors at melo melo a bit more, like their triple matcha and triple latte. I'd say melo melo is sweeter while tong sui is lighter, so side by side, tong sui tastes a bit more bland. However, with that being said, I still think tong sui makes a great dessert that's nice and refreshing on a hot day! They also have cool seasonal flavors, like persimmon during the lunar new year! read more

Tong Sui is a popular Asian dessert shop in San Mateo specializing in silky coconut puddings and refreshing fruit-based beverages. The shop is known for its "not too sweet" flavor profile and use of high-quality ingredients like organic fruits dessert. It was popular for its coconut pudding and specialized on that but overtime they also fruit drink with topping. The shop is small but has some seating area. Ordering is simple using touch screen kiosk. The cocunut pudding is pre-made and the drink is made from order. Currently they have limited time persimmon drink. They don't have any boba tea drink like other boba tea shop. They offer fresh fruit and looks like they add coconut water. The pudding and drink are fresh and refreshing. Pricewise it is is at the higher side compare to regular boba tea drop but ingredients seem good quality one. read more

I didn't realize that coconut based drinks and puddings could be so addicting. I've come to Tong Sui over 10 times and I can firmly say it's one of if not my favorite spot on B street. The drinks are good, not too sweet and they have great toppings/mix-in options. What really makes this place stand out is the pudding. Now you may be wondering, is the pudding that go-- Yes, yes it is. You can ask for a sample if you don't believe me. I've tried a couple of different flavors like the signature, mango mochi, persimmon mochi, mango sticky rice and the new roasted yam crème brûlée. I really like the persimmon mochi as the persimmon flavor mends well with the coconut pudding. The mochi is a nice touch and you can mix it all together so that everything emulsifies. The roasted yam is my second favorite as it has a nice contrast with the pudding. If you are in the area for dessert, I would highly recommend stopping here. read more

I love tong sui in San Mateo. So refreshing and not too sweet! We come here a lot. I recommend

Always been a fan of their coconut pudding but I tried their drinks for the first time yesterday. I really loved the melon melody drink. Usually takes me two- three days to finish a boba but this one I gulped down! It's honeydew, jasmine green tea and it tasted very refreshing. I got the minimal sweet but you can really taste the natural sweetness of the fruit. Highly recommend this drink on a warm summer day. read more

I ordered the mango mochi and strawberry matcha, and both were delicious! The mango mochi had that perfect chewy mochi texture, and the mango itself tasted super fresh and flavorful. The strawberry matcha was also really nice -- not overpowering, but still flavorful and well-balanced. I also appreciated that it wasn't too heavy or filling, especially after a big dinner nearby. Each comes in a glass container you can take home, which I love -- such a nice touch and perfect for enjoying later too. read more

Tong Sui is a small drink shop located in Downtown San Mateo. They have limited indoor seating and a rewards system. The staff are super friendly and even offered my friend and I a sample of their mango coconut pudding (would recommend). Christmas Strawberry (5/5) - SO GOOD! At first I was hesitant to order this drink because I didn't really want a strawberry milkshake. However, the barista recommended that I switch it out for their house coconut milk and it was perfect. read more

Amazing option to grab a drink or dessert if you love coconut flavor. But don't worry, coconut isn't all that they've got! Many drinks are coconut free as well. Their drinks and coconut pudding is sweet enough for a sweet treat but not so sweet where you feel sick from the sugar. It also tastes more natural than artificial. Highly recommend the Coco Avocado and any of their coconut pudding. Don't forget to save the jars as you can redeem 10 jars for 1 free pudding. The store itself is very simple with no extravagant decorations. There's ~4 tables inside and another 4 tables outside. They can get pretty busy at night but service is relatively fast. read more

The coconut puddings from Tong Sui are always a solid lightweight dessert option - not overly sweet and low calories, with plenty of flavors to work through, including seasonal ones. Pricing a tad high at ~$10 per jar, but if you bring back 10 clean jars together to recycle, they give you a free one! This time I tried out the taro & ube sago and the black sesame puddings -- both were lovely! I also got the nutty noir drink which was a black sesame drink which came with mini taro balls, really enjoyed this drink as well, very flavorful with the sesame and the taro balls was a great complement (glad this was the default topping option). Staff member was super friendly and quick to offer to take my order (someone else was at the self-order kiosk) and helpful when I asked about the drink description. I do wish their displayed menu included all items (I only noticed some matcha drink options when the side panel menu rotated to show specials and seasonal options) as well as a description so I didn't need to ask (or use the self-kiosk to find out). All in all, another great Tong Sui location. This location is in downtown San Mateo, so parking is bit harder but there are public lots (free on Sundays) nearby and within walking distance. Interior is pretty small, only 3 small tables, so not really a sit down place, but the dessert/drinks are easy to take to go. Service was quite fast as they don't have as extensive of a "drinks" menu compared to boba shops, so should not ever be too much of a wait. I picked it for the fast turnaround and light dessert, will be back if I'm in San Mateo again! read more

San Mateo downtown is honestly the place to be right now--it's basically the "war room" for AI entrepreneurs. You can practically hear the next big startup being pitched at every other table. We swung by Tang Sui right in the middle of downtown for a post-dinner treat. If you're a matcha fan, this is your spot. We ordered a boba drink and a matcha, and both were super refreshing with a really deep, authentic matcha flavor. We also shared the original coconut pudding. It was good, but honestly a little on the bland side for me--it didn't scream "coconut" as much as I hoped. Pro tip: Make sure to actually mix in the little coconut pack they give you; it definitely helps elevate the flavor and gives it that kick it needs. Service was quick and friendly, which is always a plus. Great spot to refuel while you're out and about! read more

Located in Downtown San Mateo, this Tong Sui location not only offers the expected coconut puddings, but they also have drinks on the menu. I'm not really into coconut puddings so I opted for their mango coconut drink which was delicious. My only critique is they should close down their DoorDash or other online ordering apps during high traffic hours because it was clear the staff was overwhelmed by the amount of orders on a Saturday afternoon and in person orders were delayed. read more
