Dessert Restaurants near La Jolla, CA

“This was the most amazing cookie that I ever tried in my life, even though it was kinda hard, but you just have to warm it up and yeah, I really liked eating here. Definitely coming back for more. Definitely tell my friends about this. I’m here just for free cookie bye.“

“I eat chocolate daily. I am forever searching for the chocolate desert that can satisfy my craving for something sublime. This is only the second time in my life that I have had a perfect chocolate desert. I ate an entire slice of the torte, and I enjoyed every luscious bite. The layered textures and tastes were spot on. Well worth it.“

“This is a small cozy dessert place that has Japanese shaved ice with ice cream in it. They’re known for their polar bear design and a small cup of strawberry syrup that you can pour over. This was very good, simple, and refreshing we will be visiting again.“

“Great hat shop with lots of great hats come here if you want a custom made hat o ya you can grab some delicious gelato also while you wait great service parking not so good but a little walk doesn't hurt. Especially in your cool new hat“

“Yum!!! Our group of 6 shared one Chocolate Banana Bingsoo after an all-you-can-eat Korean BBQ dinner, and it was the perfect size and sweet treat to end the night. Great balance of light, cold, sweet, and salty!

Line was out the door, and inside was very busy on a Thursday evening around 8/9 PM.

Would highly recommend for dessert!“

“Many people on Red Note recommended this place. So we took our two ice cream lovers to this place to have a try. It was a blast! Tried coconut sundae with vanilla, chocolate and coconut ice cream scoops first (very traditional and safe choices made by my kids, ;)), and couldn't help ordering another sundae with three other flavors, mango, thai iced tea and pandan. All flavors were yummy!!! The only thing was the parking. Limited parking space even though we arrived around the closing time. But it is easy to walk in, grab your food and go. Highly recommended!!“

“We came here because we wanted to try something new, we got some Basque cheesecake, milk tea boba, and unique mousse flavors. 5 of us shared everything and we still had leftovers, then my son won at the claw machines ^_^ it was the perfect sweet spot for after dinner 👍🏽👍🏽“

“I got a Snicker doodle and White chocolate macadamia nut with Vanilla filling and it was sublime. Every bite was mmmmmm good. As the cinnamon, vanilla and macadamia nuts fused into peak delicious delight. My wife went all in on the blue options as any Percy fan can appreciate. She very much enjoyed it as well.“

“Great place for a sweet treat. Gorgeous decor as well.“

“I'm retired but I like it more than others because the service here is fast and they always have cookies available

Parking: I think it's okay except that there are more businesses and a restaurant on one side and it takes longer but it is very big“

“The best, smoothest texture, greatest flvor gelato in San Diego and I've tried them all. Chocolate hazelnut is my favorite but the strawberry snd spumoni are also great. Outdoor streetside seating or try the upstairs room (stairs are outside) to watch the planes land. Lots of nearby restaurants to try beforehand. Other desserts available as well.“

“Our first time in San Diego and we just happened to find this great place to host us as our first visit to a chocolatier. The ladies are amazing and the chocolate is great. We had the everything brownie and a Carmel apple.
We had a great time visiting with them too, which just made our day.
Definitely the place to make sure you stop in and enjoy their craftsmanship and then take a little bit to visit. It will be a core memory and possibly life changing.“

“My favorite place to get caneles! The original and chocolate flavors are both really good. I tend to get a basque cheesecake too! Sooo good and lots of great flavors to choose from. Love stopping here for a sweet treat on my way home from work. The owner is always so sweet and welcoming too!“

“I like the cookies. But the last time I went to Crumbl, we walked in and waited for six minutes. The worker in the store totally ignored us. Finally, we tried the self-checkout, but the credit card reader wasn’t working. So we waited for five more minutes. She still ignored us. Finally, we got her attention, and we had to enter the credit card number manually.

I only gave it four stars because the worker could tell we were upset, so she gave us a free cookie. Also, $5.50 for one cookie?!“

“This was my first time having rolled ice cream. It was really flavorful. I got the strawberry with cheesecake bites.“

“We came here today after seeing a tik tok video and it was so worth it all the way from England!“

“After dinner, of course we had to try dessert! I went for the honey lavender with almond biscotti, it was my first time trying lavender, and it was really interesting! They have so many desserts and drinks to choose from, plus plenty of space for tables and seating. Service is friendly, I asked if I can try the two flavor that I’m interested so perfect, it it worth it. Happy tummy!“

“Extraordinary Desserts indeed! Love this place and their people 🥰“

“First and foremost, I truly appreciate the service I received at Hey Sugar. She was kind, knowledgeable, and I felt welcomed as I stepped through the front door. I had the delicious cake jar, and I can’t wait to try my cheesecake. The venue was cute, petite, and vibrant. Thank you for a wonderful experience! I pray your business continues to thrive. ❤️“

“Hands down the tastiest Churros in San Diego!“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
If you’re a matcha lover, Matcha Cafe Maiko is a must-visit! The quality of the matcha here is outstanding — rich, earthy, and perfectly balanced without being too bitter. Their soft serve and parfaits are beautifully layered and full of authentic flavor. You can really taste that they use premium Uji matcha from Japan.

The café has a calm and cozy vibe, perfect for enjoying your drink or dessert while relaxing. The presentation is always picture-perfect, and the staff are friendly and patient, even when there’s a long line (which there usually is — it’s that good!).

If you’re new, try the matcha float or the signature parfait — both are amazing! A true gem for anyone who appreciates real, high-quality matcha. 🍵💚“

“I don’t usually write reviews, but these cream puffs are outstanding. Perfect texture, exciting flavors, appealing presentation, and so fresh. The owner was very friendly and helpful. It’s worth the extra step of ordering ahead. If you’re intending to share make sure you order enough! I’ll definitely be back.“

“Great cafe late and Mille crêpe cake!!!!!!“

“There are more Phoenix Desserts in the LA areas that I've been to before. Very happy to find this one in San Diego. It's a small shop with limited items and a few small tables inside.

I always like their mochi and their custard with different flavors. They're all delicious especially if you have a sweet tooth.

There are a few HK street food and a few cold dishes available. The cold tofu platter, the chicken wings, and samosa are all good. The curry fish ball is a bit disappointing and wish they use the white fish balls that are not fried.

Be aware they only get shipments from LA on certain days, so they can run out of certain popular desserts. It would be nice if they open more locations.“

“A big shout out to Elegant desserts!! They gave us a delicious treat for free at San Diego Airport and we loved it ��“

“I love everything here! If you are looking for a dessert platter, I recommend their Ube platter.“

“Absolutely DELICIOUS and highly recommend this place. This was my first time going here and I loved it“

“Tiramisu cake was top notch! Viking cake was super rich, but still delicious. Paired with red wines and vanilla bean ice cream. Ice cream came out first, cake about 3 minutes later, but wines were delayed quite some time. Service was fairly slow, but staff were extremely friendly and obviously hard at work. Huge portions! Recommendation: a garnish or side of strawberries with the Viking cake.“

“The taro bingsoo was so gooooooood!“

“Found this place on yelp and was super happy with the service, pastries and coffee. Baristas were super nice and the cotton Candy burrito was amazing. 5 stars for this place. Will be back for sure.“

“Delicious ice cream with great flavors.“

“This spot is a Convoy St. favorite! I’ve tried their shaved snow and ube mochi waffle creation — both were delicious. The ube soft serve was particularly tasty and my group’s favorite.
The staff are friendly and prepare the desserts fresh and in front of you, which is a joy to see.“

“Staff is friendly and desserts r excellent! I will be back“

“Amazing baklavas and turkish delight“

“I had one of the most awesome crepe and cheesecake ever. Service was amazing and the nutella and strawberry cake was exquisite“

“Yummay cookies 🥰🍪🥰 Looking foward to having this in the future 🥰“

“The gelato & macrons are amazing — eager to return for the chocolate mousse cake!!“

“My best friend graduated from Point Loma Nazarene University today and I was unable to attend the ceremony due to a medical emergency in our family. Crumbl Point Loma made a dozen mini cookies for my bestie, DoorDash delivered to the Hyatt Regency Mission Bay resort and I got to surprise her with a yummy treat to share with her family. I wasn’t the same as being there, I’d have loved to deliver them myself and celebrate with her, but thank you Crumbl for delivering her some love from me. The app was easy to order my deliverable treats and my Dasher was pleasant to interact with. The front desk folks at the Hyatt were awesome about it too. I’d recommend working with all of them!“

“We tried the mango and cream cannolis, mango lemonade, brulee mango and sticky rice and Ube and mango soup. the table shared everything and enjoyed it all. you can't go wrong with fresh mango.“

“Extraordinary Desserts indeed! Love this place and their people 🥰“

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

“Shaved ice… everything!! Delicious“

“This place is amazing! High quality ingredients, extremely warm and welcoming staff, family-owned, and incredible desserts. We got the churro sundae (with fresh churros made to order), Dubai chocolate strawberry cup (great quality chocolate and super fresh strawberries), and an Oreo caramel apple. Everything was soooooo good, even the soft serve tasted better than any soft serve I’ve had before. I’m going back today to try more confections before heading to the airport. 10/10 choice if you’re looking for a sweet treat in SD.“
