UC Dessert Reviews
Happened upon this little spot strolling through Chinatown. The bright decor lured us inside, and they have macaroons! Mango sago pomelo was served in a glass with a spoon but a straw would have sufficed since it was more like a smoothie than pudding. Good place to hang out for snacks and desserts.
It tastes better than it looks. Good gathering place!

UC Dessert is a popular destination for Chinese desserts and Asian treats in the Bay Area. The menu offers a wide range of options, including classic and consistent flavors like mango chia with ice cream and coconut/mango pudding. The chocolate Oreo bingsu is a must-try, light and not too sweet, while the volcano bingsu is often described as overrated and dry.
The cozy space and friendly staff create a welcoming atmosphere for dessert lovers, especially those who enjoy bingsu or traditional Chinese desserts. The restaurant features a variety of offerings, such as ginger milk custard/pudding and mochi rice ball with sesame paste, in a comforting Asian dessert setting.
Customers praise the refreshing and not-too-sweet flavors, like the avocado smoothie and the dessert with mango, black sticky rice, chia seeds, and coconut. The black sticky rice is a highlight, adding a delightful texture to the dish. The Mango Matcha Latte and Matcha Mocha are also popular choices, showcasing the menu's deliciousness.
