Dessert Restaurants near Encino, CA

“The dessert box was a big hit even by seasoned bakers. The kids claimed their favorites first. I highly recommend saving your host time and worry. Take the best. My host had a sneak bite and energized with a huge smile to greet her guests with a huge smile knowing the grand finale was going to be stunning and delicious! BIG HIT“

“OK, it’s cookies, not pastries… but oh, my, oh, my!! Delicious, imaginative cookies. We went in for 2, came out with a dozen (+ 1 for a baker’s dozen‼️).“

“The staff are super friendly and make me feel welcome every time I walk in, which makes the whole experience even better. The cookies are always fresh, warm, and perfectly packaged. It’s definitely one of my favorite spots when I want to treat myself or surprise friends and family with something sweet.“

“Absolutely delicious! I had the Nutella filled cake cone with cookies and cream“

“When I think of Melo Melo, I think of a homey type of feeling of comfort. Not only are their desserts both delicious and the right amount of sweetness, it reminds me of my mom and grandma making Vietnamese desserts called Che where some have coconut milk and it just gives it the right touch of creaminess to the dessert. You can feel the love that was put in with each bite. For Melo Melo, even though it’s not che, I still get that same nostalgic feeling and my heart is full (and stomach too). They have a wide range of flavors, from different fruits, to jelly, to childhood favorites like ovaltine or oreo mixed with their signature coconut jelly, and more! They just came out with a Sunset Series, the Sunset Mango Coconut, Sunset Sticky Rice Coconut, and the Sunset Durian Coconut. I also grabbed a jar of Matcha Coconut to go. I love the fact that the desserts aren’t overly sweet and get the sweetness from the fruit or mix-in. The soothing coconut cream jelly/pudding consistency makes it a dream to slurp or in my case, inhale the entire thing. Also just upon opening the jar I have instant joy from seeing it jiggle jiggle! The Sunset Mango Coconut reminds me if a mango sticky rice dessert had a baby with coconut pudding. Genius! The Sunset Sticky Rice Coconut reminds me of the glutinous purple rice vietnamese che, with the coconut cream on top. Mmmm! The Sunset Durian Coconut.. OMG.. if you are a durian lover… yes! And yes!!! For you haters out there.. It is the king of all fruit.. Only kings and queens can handle it! Jk! It tastes fresh and not rubbery as if it was frozen and thawed. The durian was creamy and custardy, and then adding another layer of texture coming from the sticky rice, and POW some velvety coconut jelly to put it all together. My absolute fave! The matcha coconut was delicious and not too strong in matcha flavor. I’ve had where matcha was so overbearing and bitter that it was difficult to enjoy. Not this one! This one was super smooth and slurpilicious! Right amount of matcha, right amount of coconut where it doesn’t overpower the green tea, great texture and enjoyable! Yes I devoured that! Basically I inhaled everything because the desserts were light and not heavy! I can totally eat this for days!!! So whoever said they don’t have room for dessert.. that’s a lie because there is room for Melo Melo!“

“Great cookiesss tryna get points lol“

“I came here the other day to see what all the hype was about regarding the fruit pastries everyone has been talking about in Los Angeles. I visited this local spot on Olympic Boulevard, and I was definitely impressed.

The shop was clean, welcoming, and had a great atmosphere. Unfortunately, I arrived later in the day, so it seemed like they were starting to run low on some of their inventory. Even so, I was able to pick up a few items, including three mango pastries, which I absolutely loved. I also grabbed a couple of other treats for my partner who was with me.

To top it off, they even included a few complimentary items, which was a very nice gesture and greatly appreciated. Overall, I had a great experience and was thankful for the opportunity to visit and review this location.

If you're looking for delicious fruit pastries and a friendly local business to support, I highly recommend stopping by. This is definitely a spot worth checking out.“

“Crumbl Cookies is amazing! Each cookie is perfectly baked—soft, warm, and so flavorful. The rotating flavors keep things exciting, and every visit feels like a treat. The presentation is beautiful too. Highly recommend for any cookie lover!

Parking: Great location with plenty of parking!

Kid-friendliness: Clean and kid friendly place.“

“The staff at Crumbl Cookies was friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable. They were happy to walk me through the flavor options and gave me great recommendations. It’s clear that they love what they do, which makes the whole experience feel even more enjoyable. The service was quick, and I didn’t have to wait long for my cookies to be boxed up and ready to go.“

“These are hands down the best Crumbl cookies I’ve ever had. Every time I come to this location, the cookies are fresh, warm, and absolutely delicious. The flavors are always on point, and you can really tell they take pride in what they’re making here.
What really keeps me coming back, though, is the consistency. No matter when I visit, the quality never disappoints. The staff is friendly, the service is quick, and the whole experience just feels worth it every single time.
I’ve tried other locations, but none compare to this one. This is officially my go-to spot, and honestly, I won’t be going anywhere else. If you’re thinking about trying Crumbl, make it this location—you won’t regret it.“

“Very delicious!!! Generous portion and courteous service. They use iced bowl - actual concrete ice in the shape of a bowl to serve the shaved ice that is so refreshing, perfect amount of sweetness, and fluffy in texture. Highly recommend!
P.S. They give free sample as well :)“

“I ordered these for my son's culture fair at school. He was presenting facts on Brazil and asked me to make 100 brigadeiros, which I had never done before. Instead I found this shop across the country and boy did I make the right choice. The classic chocolate brigadeiros were absolutely delicious and were a hit at my son's culture fair. The shipping was fast and Maya was the sweetest. Will definitely order again!“

“I been waiting for a long time for this moment love shave ice I just tasted it is delicious:)“

“Delicious flavor! Staff was nice. Prices decent. My only qualm is that I thought I ordered both deluxe but got a classic smaller size for one of the cookies. It was only my second time at an Insomnia Cookies so I wish the person helping me had clarified which size I wanted for my chocolate chunk since it comes in different sizes.“

“This place is incredible. Plant based ice cream, smoothies. Healthy, eco friendly (sustainable cups and spoons), natural, fresh daily, even open late!

Original, organic. Made from scratch. Gluten free, soy free, vegan. What more can you ask for? And so tasty. Whipped cream weight, light.

This is the kind of place I like to support. Been here a few times and the servers are the NICEST, managers too!

The peanut butter prana with brownie is DIVINE. Even the child size cup will fill you up!

Today I went and server Jett Tierri was such a sweet caring person! I hope upper management can recognize their team - they're doing such a nice job. Makes us want to return.

Nice open space, plenty friends to bring around and chat for a snack or late night snack. Looking forward to try the smoothies too.

This is going to be a regular spot for me.“

“Cassetta is a modern dessert spot featuring a unique concept and well-designed interior. The ice cream is beautifully presented, however the flavors leaned quite sweet for our preference. The toppings are fun and artistic, but they add little in terms of flavor and serve more as visual accents. This is a place best appreciated for its concept and presentation rather than the ice cream itself.“

“Their apples are so good!“

“A room full of decadent, delicious chocolate. What more could you want?! 😋🍫🫕💝“

“The best cookie shop I’ve ever tried! The staff is incredibly friendly and always greets you with a warm welcome. The cookies are fresh, soft, and absolutely delicious. You can really tell they care about quality and customer service. I highly recommend this place—definitely worth a visit!“

“Unique dessert that you can't really find anywhere else. They have very creative flavors, they're all amazing. Very soft, goey texture. I highly recommend skipping dessert at any restaurant you go to at topanga mall and going here instead!“

“Never had bread pudding before I paid this place a visit. Never knew how spectacular it is. B Sweet has a number of different flavors & every one is a treat. I have been here a number of times & will occasionally get cravings. It's probably a good thing I don't live closer, otherwise I'd be here every other day.“

“Wow. Something’s gotta be in them because they’re perfect! Hands down the best! Was annoyed at the tiny size of chocolate sauce that came on the side but quickly realized they’re perfect without it.
Worth the drive. Worth the wait.“

“Great mom and pop place for anything juices, shaved ice , ice cream and hot chocolate!I got a Lulo juice,(not pictured) which is a subtle citrus yet earthy tea like shake that was right up my alley. I don't like overbearing sweetness. And since this shops main ingredients are 100% natural. It's perfect for my taste.I also got a shaved ice lemonade (pictured) which was perfect. I can taste the whole lemon essence with a perfect amount of sweetness!My brother got a hot chocolate (pictured) And it was phenomenal. A slightly gritty drink but all cocoa chocolate. Almost like a abuelitas chocolate mix. But way less sweet and more coco forward. Highly highly recommend.Overall if I lived near and frequented the mall I'd always get something from here. Please support them!!!!“

“Dates and Nuts is the perfect gift for every occasion. Their perfectly elegant presentation and their delicacy makes them stand out among any other desert gifts! Everyone loves the delicious taste and they are asking me where I bought them from! Thank you Dates and Nuts!!!!“

“Checked this place out!!! Awesome place with sooo much unique and bold flavors you can't find elsewhere! Make sure you try their matcha pandan flavor! Bold and fragrant! 🍵 🇵🇭 🇺🇸“

“The shakes are not only beautifully made they’re also very delicious 😋“

“Freshly made churros at a great price and made with love—what more can you ask for?! Will keep coming back every time I’m in LA! Here are photos of the mirth the churros have provided my mom and I for all of internet posterity to stumble upon while searching for churros in the valley mwuahaha!“

“Ube Shave Ice and Uji Kintoki are worth the drive!“

“Stumbled upon this little hole in the wall spot run out of an Italian restaurant. I think they were possibly not open for the day yet, but the owner was very sweet to invite me inside anyway. Amazing list of options on the bakery menu; Italian desserts and other sweet treats, I was very impressed. This little local gem must be loved by the area. I didn’t check out the actual restaurant menu, but if the service is any guide, I am betting it is good. I shall return.“

“I was absolutely thrilled to discover several hidden secrets in LA that serve pastries without being overly sweet! Their cream puffs strike the perfect balance of sweetness and are incredibly delicious. I accidentally ended up ordering the largest ones—a combo of chocolate and vanilla cream. They’re beyond amazing, but I have to say, the vanilla cream puff is an absolute must-try! Now I am going to stop here because just thinking about them and they’re making my mouth water! 😋“

“GLUTEN-FREE CHURROS! Enough said.“

“Well we bought the strawberry 🍓 cake on a restaurant and it was so delicious 😋“

“La diversidad de sabores que tienen de nieve, las malteadas, prácticamente todo“
