waffle university
Aamiah F.

Photo stop for sure - and a yummy waffle/ice cream/drink to go with! This place is tooooo cute! I will be back for a loaded, yummy waffle but today I just needed a snack, so the plain waffle hit the spot. There are so many fancy options available - I cannot wait to try them all! Will for sure be back soon!!!

I'm usually not a huge waffle person because they tend to be quite dense. My favorite type of waffle is actually a Belgian waffle because they are airy and light. Well, Waffle University does waffles but Korean style. These types of waffles were actually quite trendy in Korea a few years back. So far, my husband and I have tried their berry and whip cream waffle & their strawberry nutella waffle. My favorite is their strawberry nutella waffle! Sweet and decadent but also light and airy! The waffles aren't warm when they are served because they are crispier when they are cold. If you want a warm waffle, you can request it but it will be soft. If their waffle combinations aren't really what you're looking for, you can build your own as well. They also got a long list of drinks to choose from if you want one with your waffle! The establishment is very spacious and has plenty of tables. Service is good! The only thing is that the waffles are quite pricy since they're about $8-12 per waffle depending on the kind of combo you want. I will definitely keep coming back for dessert if I have dinner nearby!

I've been wanting to try this place since I saw it on IG. When you walk first in the vibes is already so cute. It's set up like a school which is a unique theme to have for a waffle shop! Service was okay and the waffle took awhile to come out since I think they make it fresh. I ended up betting the strawberry cheesecake cream waffle. The waffle was actually really good. Super airy and not dense. The berries were sweet and the cream was not overly sweet. Cream was fluffy and went well w the waffle. Overall it was delicious and I would def come back for a sweet treat if I'm in the area!

One of the best desserts I've tried as of lately! Upon entering I was surprised to see how clean and cute the set up was. There is definitely a lot of space to study or for bigger parties. It was my first time trying this place and type of dessert so the staff recommended the apple cinnamon specialty and it was absolutely amazing. Definitely recommend if you are looking for something not too sweet but with an added crunch.

Tried this place out after shopping at H Mart and the place had a nice vibe inside. There was plenty of seating inside and you can see the process of your waffle being made. The waffle was good and had good texture.

Oreo cream Nutella waffles
Regina B.

We went to hmart for some grocery run and decided to stop bat this place to try it out. Me and my husband got the Oreo cream waffles and shared it as we had just had lunch. I guess you get an option for ice cream or cream but being it 100 something degrees outside I opted for the cream. Service was ok nothing special. The inside is nice and bright, some photo ops for sure. Paid under $10, it was good waffles had a nice crisp and sweetness to it but next time I'll do more research on what to order as we just ordered on a whim lol

Red bean waffle & Strawberry Dubai waffle
Amy K.

I've been meaning to visit Waffle University since it opened and finally made it in The interior is clean and very bright with a lot of yellow tones, which gives it a really uplifting vibe. There were quite a lot of customers when I went, so it definitely feels popular and lively I ordered the strawberry Dubai waffle since I'm a big fan of Dubai-style desserts, and my mom got the red bean cream waffle. The waffle itself was crispy and really good! But for the Dubai-style toppings, the kataifi and pistachio flavor didn't quite hit the mark compared to others I've tried. It felt more like pre-made pistachio spread and already-toasted kataifi rather than something freshly prepared, so it was a bit disappointing. The red bean waffle had a lot of cream and leaned quite sweet. Overall, it's a nice spot for the vibe and a fun visit, but the dessert itself was a little hit or miss for me.

Do you remember fro-yo days and picking out all your favorite toppings? At Waffle Univ, you have the option to pick your favorite waffle toppings and you pay by the oz, or you can pick from a preset combo of flavors. We spontaneously visited Waffle University after an H mart visit. We were intrigued by the bright yellow decor and idea of waffles as second dessert lol. Who can say no to crispy waffles? Not us! We ordered the Strawberry Nutella Ice Cream Waffle and the Banana PEA-Nutella Waffle. The ice cream waffles mean you now get to top this massive waffle with three scoops of ice cream. It was crispy, divine, and worth a visit! The inside is decorated like a school- imagine lockers, uniforms, waffle light fixtures. Such a cute theme! Can't wait to come back.

Cute decor and decent amount of seating available. We came on a Sunday afternoon to take advantage of their Happy Hour (2pm -5pm) which offered 20% off waffles and $1 Americano or tea. We got 2 build your own and 1 Berry Berry Waffle and an Americano. The waffles were really tasty and had a good outside crunch. Service was a little slow but we didn't mind waiting. Super friendly staff.

Okay pause... Waffle University is actually SO good I feel like I'm back in Korea!!! The waffles came out fresh and warm with the perfect crispy edges!! Sometimes dessert places can be way too sweet, but their desserts here were honestly really balanced and addicting. The vibe inside was also super cute and cozy -- perfect for catching up with friends or getting a late night dessert craving. There's also a little area to wear the Korean varsity jackets and take pics The staff was incredibly sweet and patient while we took forever deciding what to order LOL Portions were generous, presentation was adorable, and every bite was worth it!! MUST TRY: the biscoff coffee & strawberry cheesecake waffle! Definitely one of those places you immediately want to bring your friends back to after trying it once. Can't wait to go back and try more flavors eek

​I visited Waffle University during my trip to Las Vegas! Kind staff, clean space, and so on. The waffles are incredibly delicious, and the prices are reasonable too. ​Honestly, I wish we had one in OC as well. I will definitely be making this a mandatory stop every single time I visit Vegas from now on. ​Plus, they had a photowall with props and BTS merch available this time as they're having a concert here in Vegas. Great food, great prices, and awesome vibes. Highly recommend!

Berry berry waffle
Vanessa C.

The theme of waffle University it's honestly super cute! Love that they added color and didn't go with modern colors. (Like nudes and grey) The waffles are delicious very fluffy and no to sweet! The perfect dessert! The worker was super sweet and kind. And service was quick. Will come back!

Waffle University is a cute and vibrant spot that immediately gives off a preppy, bubbly academy vibe. It almost feels like stepping into a K-drama campus cafe scene. Their branding leans heavily into bright yellows mixed with blue and white, which makes the place stand out right away compared to cafes that usually stick to muted tones. Since waffles are clearly their specialty, we went with the berry waffle. The waffle itself had a good texture and was not stale or overly hard. The combination of fresh berries with ice cream worked nicely and made it feel like a simple but satisfying dessert. They also allow you to build your own waffle if you want to customize toppings. Pricing was pretty reasonable too, which is refreshing considering how expensive desserts and cafes can get lately. The interior was clean and well kept. It is located in the same plaza as H Mart, but because the shop sits a bit farther across the lot, parking was actually easier than expected even with the usual plaza traffic. We stopped by during their soft opening, and even toward the last hour it was still pretty relaxed and not crowded. One small thing that could be fun in the future would be selling some school themed merch to match the concept. Things like varsity jackets or uniform inspired pieces would fit the whole "university" aesthetic really well. Overall it is a cheerful dessert spot that feels playful and approachable, especially if you are already in the area visiting H Mart and want something sweet afterward.

I ordered the following items: - Ube French Toast: This STUNNING creation goes above and beyond any other French toast I've been fortunate enough to consume. It was an architectural marvel - layers of eggy bready goodness layered with gobs of ube cream cheese filling, topped with thick coconut shreds, a scoop of ube jam, and smothered with condensed milk. We couldn't stop ourselves from devouring this. - Spam Fries: Strips of Spam cut into fries-size pieces, breaded and deep fried (yet not oily), served with a sriracha ranch sauce. Wow, this was dangerously delicious. I had to lay off sodium for the rest of the day but it was worth it! - Ube Horchata: This was dessert in a drink. I love that this beverage included a trifecta of dairy-free milks - almond, rice, and coconut. The ube flavor came through beautifully and it was crowned with ube whipped cream. Service was prompt and efficient (as well as friendly). We were in and out and polished off our food about 30+ minutes after we walked in. I loved this place, and it is on my 100% recommended places for brunch.

They have a really good size menu of items that you want to eat on waffles or bread, they are known for their waffles. I am not a big breakfast eater, so I wanted something half the size and they do have orders which were very reasonably priced at $5.99 each. I did the breakfast half with turkey sausage, egg and cheese. It was just perfect in size and taste. Honestly, upon arrival, I did not know what I wanted as it was my first time here. The person who created me and also took my order and made my waffle sandwich did not rush me. I appreciated that. As I was coming from an appt, I had my coffee mug already in hand and she didn't have an issue with that, love that. By the time I left, there were a few tables of ppl meeting up for work discussion of sort. Quite comfortable stop to do work, get a drink or a bite to eat. They have daily specials posted in the front entry and also on the counter where you order. Great WiFi!

We were greeted right away and led to our booth. He took our drink orders while we waited for the rest of our party, and once they arrived, we were told about their cinnamon rolls. 2 people in our party were vegan so we skipped it, but I will be trying it when we come back. I got the orange juice to drink and the french toast with a side of grits (because I feel like it's rare to find a place that does just straight grits in Vegas). Orange juice was a good size for the price, and the side of grits was a hefty portion, I was super excited for that. The french toast had cream and fresh berries on top. The french toast was soaked and griddled to perfection, thick bread that takes on the moisture very well. And the berries kick it up a notch! They have a good selection of vegan and vegetarian food, which our friends loved! When we finished up, we were offered complimentary cookies. They were warm and sooooo good! The service here was phenomenal. Our waitress was so nice and we were having quite a laugh with her, we had a great time. It wasn't too busy in here and this place is kind of tucked away, but more people need to check it out! I will absolutely be coming back to try a savory breakfast along with that cinnamon roll!
