Delicious and refreshing dairy free desserts! I especially like their served in glass jars to have less plastic.

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

Consistently refreshing and light. Their coconut ice bomb is delicious with a delicate coconut taste, coconut flakes and crystal boba. If you like taro, sub the crystal boba for the taro balls. Sooo good! If you like mango, any mango drink/dessert is a good choice. Ask for a free sample, to get your taste buds ready. Join their rewards program. If you like less sweetened items, Tong Sui is your spot! 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

I got their double coconut dessert and it was absolutely delightful. It is so refreshing, creamy, and lightly sweet at the same time. Unfortunately, I was just visiting from LA and we do not have a tong sui location near me just the other chain that makes similar style desserts but would love to see a location of tong sui in socal! read more

Tongsui is one of my favorite spots and I every time I eat at tongsui I am bummed that they aren't in Denver!! So many vegan options! Their speciality is the pudding - I've tried the mango - so classic I think this is the best, durian - so good, pleasantly amazed and the rose litchi pudding - so good! I love that they're not as sweet. Their drinks are also really good. Tongsuiii - please open a store in Denver!!! read more

Came here two separate times and brought friends over to try. It's pricey for what it is but it's tasty and I can taste the freshness. I lowkey think melo melo has better tasting coconut pudding but the drinks here are super tasty. Around $9 a drink. Unfortunately would come again. 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

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

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

Tong Sui - T01 Coconut Ice Bomb w/ Mango T42 Roasted Yam Coconut Pudding with Creme Brûlée - Desserts Near Me - San Mateo, California

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

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

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

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

Tong Sui - Desserts Near Me - San Mateo, California

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

Such a great dessert place with cute take-home jars to keep! They have a great recycling program: bring back 10 jars and you can redeem a free pudding! I ordered the mango mochi coconut jelly and loved the texture of everything. Mango tasted very fresh. It wasn't too sweet, which if you didn't know, is the perfect Asian compliment for anything sweet :) read more

After our lunch, I took my mom to here for dessert. She went for the Black Sesame Coconut Pudding and I went for the Lychee Coconut Pudding. Both were smooth, creamy, and full of flavor! Also really appreciated that they were low in sugar, so the flavors came through without being overly sweet. The quality was definitely there, but it's on the pricier side for the portion. Still, it was a satisfying treat post lunch. There are definitely some seasonal flavors that piqued my interest! read more

Orders taken at a kiosk but workers were very attentive. We ordered a Strawberry drink, Black Sesame Walnut coconut pudding and the Rosie Lychee coconut pudding. Very good! Not too sweet and real ingredients are used. Coconut taste is like young coconut. Read up on the history of Tong Sui and the owner is Fujianese with HK influences in taste. She also worked at the Michelin Manresa in Los Gatos (which is no longer open). manresa also was known for their bread and pastries, very top notch! read more

Tong sui is pure comfort in a bowl. Each spoonful feels both nostalgic and exciting, balancing delicate sweetness with deep, layered flavors that don't feel heavy. Whether it's a silky sesame soup, a fragrant red bean, or a perfectly textured mango pomelo sago, every cup tastes thoughtfully made and beautifully balanced. The flavor, aroma, and care that go into tong sui make it special. It's an experience that soothes the soul and leaves you craving just one more bite. Simple and incredibly satisfying. read more

Visited for the first time on June 27 and got the Avocado Mango smoothie with house coconut milk (5/5). Creamy, flavorful, and exactly what I expected from an avocado smoothie! Plus, it was dairy free! I ordered on the tablet in the store and waited about 7 minutes for my drink. Store was clean with some seating inside for individuals or small groups of up to 4 people. I look forward to trying more of their drinks and their vegan coconut desserts! read more

*visited on a Sunday afternoon around 1:30pm Was craving something refreshing & a matcha after eating at palette tea house, and was so happy to see there's a tong sui so close to the hillsdale mall. At this location, you'd order at the kiosk and wait for your name to be called - the kiosk is incredibly easy to use! The shop is slightly small, but they're making drinks/ cranking out orders fairly quickly! There are chairs to sit down, but there's also a large outdoor area with seating available. OKAY THE DRINK: * matcha mist w/ coconut pudding: SOOOOO REFRESHING. Their coconut pudding honestly made the drink much more yummy, even though the drink was already tasty & refreshing. I love that they added a matcha series read more

Absolutely Love This Place! I ordered the Signature Coconut Pudding in a Jar and the Coco Earth--both were absolutely amazing! It's hard to describe just how good they are--you simply have to try them and fall in love like I did. The coconut flavor is rich, naturally sweet, and wonderfully fragrant. The café is quite small with limited seating, but that didn't take away from the experience. The staff were super friendly and welcoming, which made my visit even better. Definitely a place I'll be coming back to! read more

When I cannot get my Heytea while I'm in San Mateo, this will do. I love the mango mochi coconut pudding. The texture is so nice and enjoyable; it was surprising the first time because there is a softness to it and the mochi and the coconut pudding have different soft textures with the mango fruit being more solid; but I really love it. Not too sweet. I don't care for the equivalent like drink though but I love the jars. They say you should drink it within a day so don't keep it too long. Jars are part of a recycling program and I think if you turn in 10 bottles you get something. But that means you cannot lose them! read more

It was my first time coming here after seeing reviews about the good service and popular puddings, but my experience was disappointing. The girl at the front seemed unfriendly and didn't smile or make me feel welcomed. At one point, she turned to another employee, spoke in Chinese, and it made me feel like they were making fun of me, which was very uncomfortable as a customer. The pudding itself was actually really good, which makes it unfortunate that the service left such a bad first impression. read more

Such a unique drink with their sesame drink, really good and quite enjoyable for somebody that enjoys the nutty flavors of black sesame Asian desserts without it being sweetened (tbf I also got less sweetness) In fact all their drinks my friends got were quite good so what makes me rate this less than stellar? Well their prices are a bit on the higher side, I do value that they have quality ingredients and this place clearly has a following since there was a line and crowd outside but I found nearly $7 for every drink with some nearing $10 is kinda not normal imo. I won't deny their drinks were good but damn I do believe they're on the higher side Overall given the price but also how good the drinks were I would come back albeit every so often. Despite the rating it's a high four stars for me. Seating is extremely limited so that is a slight knock but overall with nice weather recently at night it's a great area to walk around and explore downtown San Mateo if your okay with a lot of families, kids, high schoolers, and young college students running around. It less yuppy like in other cities in the Peninsula read more

Tong Sui - T67 Nutty Noir - Desserts Near Me - San Mateo, California

Tried a few times here already. Highly recommend this place! A really healthy collection of Asian flavored pudding / drink desserts. Very smartly using as a base, then creatively pairing with many flavors. Very low sugar and calories. Passes healthy freaks like me. It's really hard to choose from, basic ones like mango , matcha , slightly bold ones from Asia like Durian. Also creative combos like coconut & earl gray. My go to ones are Matcha with red beans (super healthy and nutritious) and mango sticky rice (reminds me of Thailand) It's a very cute place to catch up with friends on a beautiful sunny afternoon. With Plenty of outdoor space to sit down. A few small cure tables inside but not much. This place is almost always packed inside. (Just be aware of that) This is one of my go-to hang out places now. read more

Try the newest drink today. It's called Coco Earth. It has a very pretty appearance (baby Blue represents the sky and the matcha green represents the land). The taste is very unique since it has coconut meat and coconut water inside and mixed with matcha cream. It also has the house made coconut cloud with coconut flakes on top. The price is considering little expensive compared to all other bobas around. But the size of this drink is big. read more
