Dessert Restaurants in Portland, OR

“My husband and I love the bingsu from this dessert shop so much, we had to bring our daughter and son-in-law to experience it too. We tried the ube and matcha bingsu. Both were excellent. I especially loved the sweentened milk texture. The homemade ice cream scoops were delightful and tasty. The presentation of the bingsu were amazing.

I understand that it takes a long time to make one bingsu. There were only two workers on staff that Sunday afternoon. Both of them were making our bingsu dessert. The matcha bingsu was done way earlier. They left the matcha bingsu on the counter and waited until both bingsu dessert were made before calling the number. I wish they had called us earlier for the matcha bingsu. It was melting a little by the time we got called. But overall both of the bingsu desserts were so good. We all enjoyed them. The staff were very nice. We will definitely go back again. I may try the mango bingsu next time.

I have finally found the best bingsu joint! I had to try the ube bingsu because of the ube ice cream. They claimed they make ube ice cream in-house. They also claim that they make matcha ice cream in-house, I will have to try it next time.

I ordered a large ube bingsu to share with my husband. First of all, the presentation of the bingsu was perfect. We figured that the whole bingsu measured to about the size of my husband's hand! As I was taking the bingsu to my table, I was worried that the ice cream would tumble to the floor. It was like an art. I absolutely love the presentation!

The ube ice cream scoop was huge. Sitting on top of the perfectly sculpted shaved milk, it was almost too gorgeous to eat. The shaved milk was the correct texture. It came with a ribbon of red bean along the edge of the bowl. I was impressed that the shaved milk was built to the edge of the bowl. The bowl was nicely chilled and was quite deep. I think a large could easily serve 3 people but 2 people was just right for my serving :) There was also red bean around the ice cream. The bingsu also had some shredded coconut, sliced almonds and some sprinkle of ube dust. It was so perfect that I will be using my picture as my wallpaper on my cell :)

The best thing about bingsu is that I don't have guilt after eating it. It is just like having a large glass of cold milk with red beans. I think if they also come with some mochi pieces, then it would have been 100% perfect.“

“Amazing service!! He was very nice and makes amazing treats.“

“Came in about an hour before closing and they were out of one of the cookies. Nevaeh was absolutely amazing and so sweet, she genuinely had me in tears walking out. they were out of the only cookie we really were hoping for but she gave us a couple mini versions of the same cookie to make up for the inconvenience. we were totally taken aback by her kindness and i hope whoever is her manager takes the time to recognize her for being incredible and going above and beyond!!“

“I ordered a gender reveal cheese cake for my twin pregnancy, they were able to accommodate the as little sugar as possible since the father has diabetes and I have gestational diabetes. It was done perfectly in my opinion and takes like coconut and hazelnut to me, but they have other flavor options, I just told them to surprise me. I would definitely buy from them again in the future. It definitely wasn’t an easy order for them since we are having a girl and a boy on top of the needing to limit sugar and gluten, but they did amazing and was the only place I was able to find in Portland, OR and Vancouver, WA area to accommodate. I would recommend them to anyone needing to limit sugar and gluten.“

“First time eating Ethiopian food, trusted the waiter to choose our food and wine pairing and he hit it spot on! Everything was absolutely delicious. So fresh and spicy and flavorful. We will definitely be back often!“

“The bingsoos are fantastic on a hot summer day. My wife and I ate here 3 days in a row, because…why not? The half strawberry, half mango is refreshing and the shaved ice itself has a sweet, creamy texture. One of the other days I ordered the black sesame bingsoo, which was also excellent. The different toppings reminded me of halo halo (a Filipino dessert).

The reasons I gave them 4 stars is not because of the food. This place is severely understaffed on summer days and the wait is incredibly long when everyone is getting off dinner at the same time. We luckily beat most of the crowd, but still waited 30 min to get our order. Two employees is not enough to keep the traffic moving. Understaffed also means tables are not maintained and tend to be covered in a sugary, sticky mess.

Update: 11 months later and the wait times are much more reasonable. Typical wait is about 5-10 minutes after ordering. It can use more seating and someone to wipe down the tables from time to time. The restroom isn’t maintained well either. Inside is always stuffy, as if there’s no air conditioning.“

“This place is so adorable and a definite must go especially if you’re downtown! Cute dessert spot after a date night ❤️ I drove from Beaverton area with my kids and the staff were super nice and welcoming and the final smores were so delicious!!!“

“Omg I loveeeeee this place. This is the only place with wonderful Jasmine milk tea, and they also have a strong milk tea they call Classic milk tea. If you need some caffeine to start a new day, this will be the perfect place to stop by. The staff are so friendly and care about customers, even though some customers are aggressive. Definitely coming back when we're nearby.

P/s: There are some limitations about parking during lunch and dinner hours, make sure you check in with staff before you get there.“

“This is one of the only shave ice places in the area with an actual ice shaver. The chai/ginger combo with sno cap was as expected. And the ginger was spicy! The ice is creamy and melts in your mouth.

I highly recommend this spot if you're looking for authentic shave ice with excellent homemade syrups.“

“Next level dessert! absolutely amazing flavor, friendly staff, great selection and the ambiance was on point, a really great experience.“

“I've never had a bad experience at Hanas. From customer service to the quality of the products used, Im very happy every time. There is a wide variety of options from savory foods to sweet treats. The tropical kool aid pickles are my personal favorite but the snoballs will forever be the star of the show!! Don't meet me there, best me there“

“An Exquisite Culinary Masterpiece
The 6” Japanese Organic Kuri Kabocha Pumpkin Pecan Pie is a symphony of flavors and textures that truly stands out. From the velvety kabocha filling to the perfectly balanced candied pecan topping, every bite is a testament to thoughtful craftsmanship.

The salted chocolate layer adds a rich depth, while the caramel provides just the right hint of sweetness. The kabocha diplomat cream is light yet indulgent, pairing wonderfully with the moist chocolate genoise base. Finally, the Kirsch whipping cream brings it all together with its subtle cherry undertones.

Not only is the flavor profile exceptional, but the use of organic and Japanese ingredients elevates it to a whole new level. This 1.72lb dessert is perfect for intimate gatherings or as a centerpiece for a special occasion.

A true delight for the senses—highly recommended for anyone seeking a unique and luxurious treat!“

Definitely a great late night sweet treat option.
