Dessert Restaurants near Tarzana, CA

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

“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“

“The pastries taste as good as they look for sure! The Earl Grey macaron is absolutely the best. The pistache was good...not super sweet. I dropped the box so I can't show you a pic unfortunately. The staff is also really sweet and patient.“

“My review is for the new thin cookies.
I went during the free thin cookie giveaway and bought the Dubai style chocolate cookie. $7 for 2 thin cookies. I got the brownie batter and it was great, falling apart but good. Taste wise for Dubai chocolate was also good. Cookie quality in terms of taste is not the issue. I love chewy cookies but I'm giving it 3 stars for value and also how my cookies stuck together by the time I got home, which was less than 2 miles, so packaging fail. The ladies working at the shop was nice and quick. But $7 for 2 filmsy cookie is a bit expensive in my opinion.“

“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.“

“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!“

“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“

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

“My husband and I were visiting from Florida and originally came to this area for the tacos. While we were there we spotted this small churro stand and decided to give it a try.

First let me say that the price is probably one of the best i've come across at a churro stand. For just $8, you get eight full sized churros and one dipping sauce. Since it was our first visit, the owner even threw in an extra dipping sauce for us to try.

Now on to the churros they were delicious! You could tell the ingredients were fresh, and they were made to order right in front of us. The owner's recommendation to leave the box open helped keep the churros nice and crispy. We tried the strawberry and coconut dipping sauces, and both were great, but we preferred the strawberry or honestly, no sauce at all. The churros were that good on their own!

Lastly the owners are awesome. They're incredibly charismatic and you can tell they genuinely care about their business and take pride in the quality of their product.

If you're in the area definitely give this place a try!“

“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.“

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

“Interesting as after handles..this was ok..

“Their apples are so good!“

“My husband and I stumbled across this place tucked into the back of the Westfield mall. The lady who helped us was super friendly and the Rice Krispie treat was SO GOOD. I loved how soft and chewy it was. The fruity pebbles were nice and crispy. My favorite part though was that it didn’t tear the roof of my mouth. Will definitely be buying another one whenever I come to this mall!!“

“2026-June

I’m not sure if they have parking close by since we walked from a parking garage a few blocks away. We arrived a little late, but the staff were still accommodating and friendly.

The halo‑halo was good, and overall the visit was okay. A simple spot for a quick dessert, especially if you’re already in the area.

Ice cream... yummy 😋“

“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!!!!“

“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!“

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

“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.“

“GLUTEN-FREE CHURROS! Enough said.“

“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! 🍵 🇵🇭 🇺🇸“

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

“I used to love Beard Papa's and would come here regularly a few years ago. Back then, the cream puffs tasted much fresher and more flavorful. Unfortunately, my recent visits haven't been the same. The quality seems to have gone down, and the cream filling just doesn't taste as good as it used to. The staff is still friendly, and the location is convenient, but the product itself isn't what I remember. I hope they can bring back the quality that made this place special.“

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