The interior is very clean and has many seating areas. We ordered multiple desserts, and the mango was very fresh and yummy in each of them. We particularly loved the mochi balls, as they were cooked well wit a nice texture. The mango pancake was very good, the pancake itself is more of a crepe, and it was paper-thin and delicate. Inside was a piece of mango and a delicious whipped cream.

(Left) The Mango Chewy Balls are light and refreshing, not too sweet. Compared to what was on display, it seemed smaller than what I was expecting. (Right) Mango Pancakes are delicate crepes filled with mango and whipped cream. Simple but delicious.

Definitely Overhyped. Came here a couple of times cause we wanted to try a variety of things before deciding to stop going. A lot of the recommended stuff was just not it. Like the crisps and mango chewy ball. I think the taste may specifically come from the region where the desserts originated. So if you haven't had these desserts from that area, then the chewy balls and mochi and other things might not be what you are used to. Especially texture and taste.

So good! Highly recommend the mango sago & mango passion fruit drink. Mango pancakes were meh.

I visited this amazing place with a wide variety of mango-based drinks. Being a huge mango lover, I was thrilled and eager to try every drink they had. However, each drink proved to be so satisfyingly filling that I couldn't manage to try them all. Nevertheless, the drinks were incredibly delicious. A definite must-try!

I was very upset about this mango coconut pudding. When I first had my order, I can tell the rice balls were uncooked and hard to chew on, the pudding is sour and not fresh. I then asked the server to exchange for a better one and luckily she did. I was very glad that she had a great attitude and apologized for it which makes situations a lot easier, however the rice balls are still uncooked. I hope the owner could take actions to make changes and please reserve them in a correct way so the puddings don’t get sour and rice balls stays sticky. That would be greatly appreciated.

They are always fast with their orders and they look just like the model foods shown. I go when I have a mango craving.

I tried the Coconut Jelly With Black Glutinous Rice, Mango Mochi, and Mango Pancakes. As a mango lover, the mango tastes SO fresh. The Mango Mochi and Pancakes were my absolute favorite, the texture is just *chefs kiss* I highly recommend coming here! :)

Excellent! This is a dessert place that makes everything out of Mangos!! It's delicious and I recommend everyone try it out, you'll love it! If you don't particularly love mangoes, they do have a couple other fruits available like dragon fruit and coconut. They have any mango dessert form you could think of: mango ice cream, mango jelly, mango pudding, mango mochi, mango milkshake, sweet mango with black rice pudding and coconut cream... The List goes on. The staff was really nice and kept the place clean and got your order to you quickly. I have to mention that the decor is gorgeous, it's a sort of mid-century modern Cafe vibe. They have dark teal long tiles, leather-like high chairs and bamboo trays that they serve everything on. Highly recommend!

Mango desert place! The name definitely fools u! I thought it was a Chinese restaurant! But it’s a mango dessert place.We ordered mango drink with coconut, real bites of mango and ice cream. GoodAnd the mango crunch. It was ice cream mango ice cream bites, I suggest waiting a few minutes because it was soo frozen, like frozen with ice in it. You cant taste the ice cream but wait 2 mins, then texture of ice cream will change, then you could taste it. It was delicious!

Im so glad that this place is next to my favorite restaurant (korean bbq), they have all great selections of desserts, their mango and taro based selections are my go to, but C7 is my absolute favorite. As much as i want to gate-keep this place, i have to make sure their business is alive because i can’t afford to lose my new favorite dessert place, so here i am.

Hui Lau Shan in Kearny Mesa, San Diego is an absolute gem for anyone with a sweet tooth! The desserts at this establishment are nothing short of amazing, and the mango with grapefruit fruits and tapioca is truly outstanding. The combination of sweet mango and tangy grapefruit makes for a flavor explosion in your mouth, and the tapioca adds a nice chewy texture to the dish.The taro with black rice hot dessert is also a must-try. The sweetness of the taro is balanced perfectly with the nuttiness of the black rice, and the dish is served hot, making it the perfect treat on a chilly evening.The tapioca mango drink is another standout item on the menu. The drink is refreshing and has the perfect balance of sweet and tangy flavors. The tapioca pearls add a nice chewy texture to the drink and make it a fun drink to sip on.It's worth noting that Hui Lau Shan has a rich and fascinating history. The company was founded in Hong Kong in the 1960s as a small business selling Chinese herbal tea from a traditional trolley. Over time, the business expanded and evolved, becoming the first specialized herbal tea store in the 1970s. In the years that followed, Hui Lau Shan continued to innovate and expand its offerings, eventually becoming a global food and beverage brand that attracts tourists from all over the world. Today, the company is renowned for its delicious and innovative desserts, which continue to delight customers and build upon the company's impressive legacy.I am glad that my childhood favorite dessert shop opened their stores in Southern California and I highly recommend Hui Lau Shan to anyone who loves desserts or is looking for a sweet treat to satisfy their cravings. The quality of the desserts is top-notch, and the service is excellent. So, if you're in the Kearny Mesa area of San Diego and are in the mood for something sweet, definitely give Hui Lau Shan a try!
