Dessert Restaurants near Monterey Park, CA

“Cute dessert spot that feels reminiscent of classic HK/TW dessert shops. We came on a Saturday night and were seated right away—no wait. It’s largely a self-service experience (ordering straight from the menu and servers are basically just runners).

Prices are a little on the high side, but kudos to them for delivering dishes that actually look like the photos. Therefore, there are plenty of Instagram-worthy items for those looking for that! Good experience, but not necessarily a repeatable one.

(For taste, I do recommend the mango/grape dessert - though that’s not as unique as the other items).“

“The cream puff I tried was the Creme Brulee one and it tasted so freaking good omg it was my first time trying it I was so scared it would taste soo sweet but it wasn’t and omg it tasted soooooo good omgomg 100% recommend. Got my order really fast“

“Best cookies I’ve ever had ! Open long hours so easy to get cookies after work or on the weekends. Good customer service. There’s nothing not to like. Yummy“

“recommended to me — I wasn’t disappointed. There was a bit of a line when I arrived, but it moved quickly and the staff were helpful, even with all the hustle. The ordering process was super easy, and the space felt clean and welcoming.

The cookies themselves? Genuinely excellent. Big, warm, and packed with flavour — definitely lived up to the hype. I tried a couple of the weekly specials and would’ve gone back again if I’d had more time in Downey.

Nice stop if you’re travelling and want something sweet (or very American!). Great location too — easy to find and plenty of parking nearby, but we walked as hoteled in the local area“

“I love this location it’s super close to my house!!!

I recommend crumbl for having a lot of choices of cookies, having best chocolate chip cookies!!!

Then, what i love the most is that everyweek they have different choices of cookies that we can choose from♥️“

“👍 have heard they are pricey but worth it. Can’t wait to try one“

“I went in on Tuesday, the new owners were in back of me. I was telling the cashier how disappointed my daughter was, we came in on monday and it was closed. Well the new owners, gave me a couple cookies for free. That was so awesome of them. My daughter was so happy and she said" Thank you so much!"“

“The cookies are amazing go try“

“It was my sons and I first time ever walking into Crumbl and trying them. We were so excited about the whole thing. As soon as we walked in, we were greeted very nicely and helped right away! The staff made the entire experience for my son and I really great! We absolutely loves the variety of cookies this week had to offer and we will definitely be coming back again! Thank you La Canada Crumbl and staff!“

“Delicious flavors! I love them 😍 will have to visit more often“

“🌟 Oakobing – Pasadena, CA
If you’re craving a sweet escape, Oakobing delivers a frosty dream in every spoonful. I tried the black sesame and strawberry shaved ice—each one a cloud of flavor, delicately layered with mochi and a drizzle of condensed milk. The texture? Feather-light and refreshingly crisp. Seating’s limited, so grab your treat and head to the cozy outdoor nook out back. Pro tip: skip the garage and snag metered parking nearby. A must-visit for Korean dessert lovers looking to chill in style.“

“Really good if you’re into guilt free desserts that aren’t overly sweet! I tried the mango coconut jelly and the mango pomelo sago and both were a mild sweetness that was not overwhelming making it easy to enjoy the entire dessert from start to finish. And you get a cute jar to keep and reuse so that’s a plus!“

“Loved the homemade ice cream and cookies! The attendant was super sweet as well. Highly recommend this place.“

“I was impressed how one girl delivered exceptional service on such a busy Sunday. Very swiftly yet calm and helpful to indecisive customers. I had the dulce de leche first and it was amazing and the freddo expresso transported me back to Greece. Not everone gets it on point. I had to go back for more after my lunch and I got a little creative and created my own and was glad to see that someone else was there to assist the young girl out.“

“DELICIOUS!! Sinful!! So decadent—Whatta treat!! Can’t wait to go back!“

“Fun frozen yogurt shop, with the *widest* array of toppings I've ever seen. Fun vibe, delicious flavors of frozen yogurt, friendly staff.It helped transform (in my kids' minds) a long museum visit we had just finished into a happy memory. A reasonable spoonful of sugar for the win!“

“I ordered a dozen cake pops pretty last minute and made changes to my order and they were still able to accommodate me. The cake pops were so cute and delicious and I got so many compliments. I'll be ordering from here again. Highly recommend!“

“Honestly this cafe 86 is my favorite. The decor is top notch. They have some things that are like, if you know you know. I'd have some of these things in my man cave if I could.
The service was kind and friendly too. Julie was really warm and welcoming. It's always a plus when you get great service with great food.
My favorite thing here is the ube monster. When my sweet tooth hits this is what I want. The pastries are also good. Those aren't too sweet.
Definitely coming back here as a repeat customer. I suggest you check this place out.
Parking is easy as well in the plaza so you don't got to worry about that.“

“I came here many years ago with my friends and it’s filled with happy memories, their desserts are delicious and ONE OF A KIND!! The snow ice has a great texture and they let u have two included toppings! Every time I come, they fully load your cup. Even if you order a small size. You won’t find a more delicious snow ice dessert than here!“

“Taiyaki is bomb and a great deal and I would give them 5 stars just for that. Usually just get the cheese. Service is also amazing, the shop owner is super sweet and once asked if I wanted a plastic bags to put all my things I was carrying. She won me over from that but we do frequent this place often just for the taiyaki. Bingsu is good on a hot day as well. Every time I'm at the mall my wife makes me come here to get taiyaki. Very simple and well made.“

“Great food. Funnel cakes. Churros. All fire. They have everything fresh and fresh made. Their ingridients are high quality from mexico. Very good. I tried the churros two days back to back couldn't get enough because it tasted so healthy. Not so sugary even tho it has strawberry syrup and lechera and all that surgery stuff. It was great. You can asd has fruits like Mango,strawberries,blueberries,banana to your churros and funnel cakes and ice cream as well all delicious . I would recommend anyone trying to hit a churro spot that taste like organic right here. Fire. It's not vegan tho. It just fesh products with less processing stuff really top notch high quality. Everyone come visit this place for some desserts ????“

“small cute shop but only two small tables to sit at,, they were really nice and recommended a lot of treats for us! we tried the tiramisu, mango roll, mango mochi, pomelo mango sago drink, almond cookies, and the variety custard pack! the family favorites were the almond cookies, sago drink, and mango roll!! so so good and yummy would definitely return for those :D“

“As a Vietnamese person, che is something that reminds you of childhood. Dont get me wrong though, there was no nostalgia in assessing how amazing the che’s were. My wife who is not Vietnamese also was incredibly happy.

We bought the special and the avocado Che. I literally couldn’t have been happier. We got it to go and they gave us ice with them to fill later. The ice is perfect size for the Che.

The palm sugar cake has great chewiness and is not too sweet, also for the price it can’t be beat. If you are into the chewiness of mochi, then this will be enjoyable for you as well!“

“I saw this newly opened shop that’s next to Ai Wei Ju. After finished our meal at Ai Wei Ju, we hopped over to Coconut Jelly King in Alhambra for dessert, and I must say it was a delightful experience. This charming little spot offers a wide range of refreshing beverages and tasty treats, with a special focus on coconut jelly-based creations.Firstly, the atmosphere at Coconut Jelly King is relaxed and inviting. The interior is bright and clean, adorned with Tiffany blue-themed decorations that immediately transport you to a classy cafe. The staff members were friendly and attentive, ready to assist with any questions and recommendations.Now, let's talk about the star of the show – the coconut jelly. The coconut jelly-based drinks at Coconut Jelly King are simply fantastic. I tried their signature coconut jelly smoothie, and it was a perfect blend of creamy coconut goodness and a hint of sweetness. The coconut jelly itself was wonderfully tender and added a delightful texture to the drink. It was clear that they use high-quality ingredients, as the flavors were rich and authentic.In addition to their excellent coconut jelly smoothies, Coconut Jelly King also offers a variety of other flavored jellies. We had their fresh coconut jelly which came in the whole coconut. We loved the texture. They also offer other flavors as well, there is something for everyone. I particularly enjoyed their red bean coconut jelly which was refreshing and had just the right amount of sweetness.To complement their beverages, Coconut Jelly King also serves a selection of delectable snacks and desserts. I couldn't resist trying their egg waffles and it was a true delight. Chewy , smooth, and crunchy with the natural flavors of coconut, it was a perfect ending to my visit.The prices at Coconut Jelly King are reasonable, considering the quality and freshness of the ingredients used. They also offer generous portion sizes, ensuring that you get great value for your money. The menu is diverse enough to cater to various preferences, and the ability to customize your drink according to your liking is an added bonus.Overall, my experience at Coconut Jelly King was fantastic. The combination of great ambiance, friendly service, and exceptional coconut jelly-based drinks made it a memorable visit. Whether you're a coconut lover or simply looking to try something new and refreshing, I highly recommend stopping by Coconut Jelly King in Alhambra. It's a hidden gem that deserves recognition for its unique and delicious offerings.“

“The Kind Dessert Granola is delicious on overnight oats!

I usually want to dress up my overnight oats and found that just oats and almond milk overnight then I add the Kind Dessert granola just before eating and it’s absolutely delicious!!!

And their macadamia almond butter on a slice of toasted French bread is to die for!!!“

“I love the creme cheese with strawberries crepe, and the churros with a side of vanilla ice cream 😁“

“This place is small but their drinks are delicious 😋 my first time here and I ordered the #23 which had the yogurt in it which was yummy! This place doesn't have a big selection but it good. Try them out fir yourself. Nice little treat!“

“Delicious Bionicos.The fruit and Crema is always so fresh.“

“Very delicious the mangoneada and fruit bionico 😋😋🤫“

“Finally made it here! Took advantage of promo and got a free cream puff! Yummy,I’ll be back…“

“Very lovely food stand by a kind family! Crepes are freshly made and you can customized however you like. They have a great selection of syrups and toppings, and you can add banana and/or strawberry for fruits. And you can layer some ingredients inside and on top of the crepes. Definitely would come back to try the mini pancakes!“

“I love supporting small businesses. It is the spot when I crave for cheese cake or need pick it up for potlucks and parties. I love the Japanese Iced cheesecake . It's light, not too sweet Percy texture and so delicious. They have the original , matcha , strawberry and Oreo flavors. You can either one flavor or a set of all 4.

The taro snowflakes is a must try, creamy taro sponge cake made with real taro.

This shop is clean, cutesy and is family owned and I was helped by the owner's mom, she's super nice lady, the owner makes all the cakes.

They take cash, Venmo and Zelle as payment options.“

“First time having a MOCHI DONUT. Flippin’ awesome, and couldn’t recommend them enough if you’re a pastry lover.“

“This is my GO TO place if I want delicious soft serve. Not only is it so flavorful, but the company goes above and beyond to be helpful with allergies. I’m able to easily look at their chart to see which flavors I can have. (Lactose free, gluten free, etc) they also have an option to add soft serve to cold brew. ARE YOU KIDDING ME?! Incredible. Everyone who works there is super sweet.

I wish they’d have a few more flavors available at any given time, but I understand why they can’t! Wishful thinking! ;)“

“(Translated by Google) It is very nice that you go out looking for something and find gold, in this place you can find exquisite crepes, the attention is great (the same owner takes care of you) so the service is quite good even with the long queue, plus they are 4-5 dollars more Cheaper than in other businesses in the area, but they also have mini pancakes and Yucatecan marquesitas(Original)Muy agradable que salgas buscando una cosa y encuentres oro, en este lugar encuentras crepas exquisitas, la atención es genial (la misma dueña te atiende) por lo que el servicio es bastante bueno aún teniendo la fila considerable, además están 4 - 5 dólares más baratas que en otros negocios de la zona, pero además tienen minipancakes y marquesitas yucatecas“

“Amazing place!! A MUST PLACE TO STOP AND HAVE YOUR TASTE BUDS REJOICE 😋
I am trying to find out what they DON'T have because the options here are UNLIMITED 😅 Come by, stop by and enjoy!!! I came from La Puente just for a Churros con Helados! And they have Bolis! If you know, you KNOW!“

“Best coffee shop ive been to in a long time! The desserts are amazing plus they offer sandwiches as well. I ordered a white hot mocha latte and it was made perfectly. The cashier was super friendly and didnt mind explaining what some of the desserts were. Just an awesome experience you should not visit Glendale Mall without stopping in here . My new go to when im in L.A“

“Dios Bendiga este ligar esta todo muy Rico y the people are so beautiful, 🙏God Bless their 🙌 hands 🙏🙏🙏“

“It's too small to dance more northern to dance and it's a bar type but it's good to hang out for a while. I went with my husband and I had a good time. We celebrated 28 years of marriage. But I realized that he doesn't like to be well. A lot of trouble 🍺🍺🍺🥂🍷🥃 but there is a little fun.“

“Excelente servicio muy rica las cosas que preparan ahí en ese lugar se lo recomiendo“

“😋😋😋😋😋😋😋😋😋😋🍽🍽🍽🍽🍽🍽🍽🙋‍♂️🙋‍♂️🙋‍♂️🙋‍♂️🙋‍♂️🙋‍♂️🙋‍♂️🙋‍♂️“

“Easy 5 stars. Great food and excellent service in a well-designed indoor and outdoor space with dedicated parking lot (including a security guard to watch the cars), free WiFi, and the list goes on.

Do not be swayed by long lines - it moves very quickly.“

“It’s not too often that I stop at a Michoacana store, but this location somehow always manages to serve everything with a positive and enthusiastic attitude everytime I stop by to buy something! Most stores usually have little to not much variety, but this location always has something in store for everyone! It has flavors for ice cream that other locations don’t seem to have. They always try to introduce something new and refreshing that anyone can and will enjoy! Whenever I have entered this store, they always have fresh corn for an esquite or fresh fruit for hot summer days. If you’re looking for something fresh and tasty to eat, while being served by enthusiastic employees, I HIGHLY recommend visiting this store! It’s a must!!“

“Everything is súper good!!!! 😋“

“Miss you, Donut Town! Since we moved to Plymouth Village we don’t get to enjoy the most impressive seasonal themed Donuts in the world!“

“I happened to be driving by and saw this shop. I decided to try it out and pick up some doughnuts for the guys at the office. Not only were the doughnuts fresh, the service was great! The women were very patient, fast and friendly. I am glad I found this shop. Most doughnut shops are very pushy and make you feel rushed. Excellent customer service. I will definitely be coming back!!“
