This place is so delicious and the customer service is so great. They have really good dinner like Phở and their egg rolls are bomb. Don’t think its just desserts! They have a whole menu of food. It also is really reasonably priced! Definitely check it out! Its one of my new favorite places!

My first time here. I was looking for a local Phô restaurant since I have a limited lunch time and the restaurant I am familiar with is not local. Let me start with the location, great parking and easy access. The restaurant is small for about 20 People, very clean, which is very important to Me. Restaurant has a great layout and very cheerful and colorful. Great service, fast too. Food: Phô was good but not the caliber of a restaurant that specializes in Phô, chicken was not over cooked and herbs were fresh. Gelato was delicious !! Will come back for More Phô and to Try the desserts which have plenty of delicious options.

I order the the sea salt iced coffee and ask for it a little extra sweet and it’s AMAZING. I was obsessed with 85 Degrees sea salt coffee but this blows it out of the water… Really sweet honest lady. I ordered a phở without meat and I was about to pay and before I did she added a 10% discount because I didn’t get any meat which I thought was kind because anywhere else I’ve ordered it they still charge with or without meat they don’t care. I just thought it was nice(:

This is one of our favorite family owned spots for more reasons than just genuinely good, kind service. Although, we are totally endeared to the ownership here as it is blatantly obvious that their intentions and efforts to create a welcoming, quality experience is their priority. The beverage and dessert options are all amazing, and totally worth treating yourself to but the real win for us is the PHO, and the steamed and fried bao(which you can now order with pork OR chicken). We also had the Garlic Noodles with chicken last night, and it’s definitely neck and neck with the phở. Lots of flavor and not salty, at all(if you’re into dousing things with sodium, you can always add it). If you’re a matcha latte fan, try theirs. We’ve had an assortment of the macarons, and they are just as 5-star as the rest of what we’ve had here. Friends of ours love the gelato, so you can guess what our next stop in will include!

I’m so excited that there’s a good phở spot near my work! They don’t put that much noodles compared to other places I’ve been, but I don’t mind too much, since I don’t have that big of an appetite. I’ve been here two times in a row & I’m pleased!

5 stars on customer service! They were super sweet and accommodating! 4 stars on the drinks and 5 stars on food! The boba drink was a bit too chewy/hard for me, but the strawberry green tea was good. They have a lot of great vegan options! I tried the vegan phở and the spring rolls and they were very yummy! I’m going to come back for more food and macarons!!!

This place is amazing. Peter the owner is the best guy around. He really nice really cares about his customers. The food was great, the cost is reasonable. My daughter loves ice cream here. My favorite is the garlic noodles with shrimp everybody’s got to try it. −6÷3÷16− I love everything here. My favorite drink is the strawberry matcha latte blended with coffee jelly(yummy) and Jasmine green tea with lychee cold. I love the garlic noodles with shrimp. Peter the owner and his whole staff are very friendly and accommodating. In short they have an awesome service.

I’m happy to have another option for Vietnamese food close by! The food is as authentic & delicious as it can be for south county OC unless you make it yourself or trek down to little Saigon! I would recommend their phở, shrimp garlic noodles, & homemade macaroons! More importantly the owners are gracious & attentive in providing good customer service & experience. However the restaurant is small but a nice, family friendly environment!

The shaved snow was absolutely delicious. And the macarons and other treats looked amazing, though I unfortunately was not able to try them. However, the food and drinks were subpar. I wanted to get boba but they were out of boba so I had to settle for popping boba, not that they are bad though. I think I’ll only come back here for the dessert though, which is definitely worth it.

Update. Had the mango fluff ice. Boom! My life seems more complete now. Peter, Thanks for everything you do. Homemade MACAROONS?! Yes PLEASE! Homemade Frozen Fruit Concoctions for FLUFFICE! And yes, FLUFF ice. This is my favorite viet/or dessert place. I love the chicken stock for the phở. I just eat it with no noodles. It’s fabulous! I feel kinda bad that I have not stopped in earlier. We have had such bad luck with Vietnamese Sandwich and phở places just turning into blah. But NOTTHISPLACE– this place rocks! THISPLACEROCKS. I did not eat everything from the menu — but we did kinda go bonkers. We started to look around and ended up getting the hot doughnut Gelato Sandwich. Ooooohhhhhhhmmmmmmmmygaaaaaaawd! awesomeness. Really. I mean — come in a hot doughnut sandwich with creamy goodness Gelato on the inside! Yes yes yes! #foodporn. Really. #foodgasm. Then we saw Nutella Cheesecake and we were like,.duh, YES! Put that in my mouth NOW! But the real reason we went was for the sandwich. It was freeking awesome. Granted you do not have a zillion add-on’s to buy to make it have flavors– BECAUSE It Is EXPLODING with FLAVORS right NOW! After double checking it’s late hours we can drop by from the gym,… Have hot phở and a plate of perfectly and head home,… Right from #lifetimeathletic — it’s a perfect patch! So to recap,… The food is great. Service is great and their kids are perfectly behaved and sweet!

Coming from the land of Garden Grove, Westminster, etc. it’s hard not to compare. Some really great food yet some weak points as well! I can be bias because I’m Vietnamese and the demographic here is catered towards Caucasian, but still! Context: came here with my parents Environment: Tucked away in Laguna Niguel area, quiet area. Pretty busy, huge party of like 15 next to us. There’s about six tables. Lots of things going on from desserts, to food, drinks, and more Food: * garlic noodles with shrimp: loved this dish! The shrimp was so tasty and full, and super yummy and garlic-y just the way I like it! And there’s so much shrimp! * Fried Bao: basically a fried Chinese bun with filling inside. I love this idea, and I loved this dish! It was great for you Bao lovers! * Phở with Bo Vien: The phó broth wasn’t the best in my family’s opinion, bland tasting. However, it seems healthy? * Strawberry milkshake: No Bueno, did not like it. Powdery strawberry and too sweet. But I guess you really shouldn’t order milkshakes at a Vietnamese place haha Price: food is reasonably priced but some of their drinks are so expensive, like Thai Tea for almost $ 5?! Say what?! Service: Nice owner! Very passionate and sweet person! He is very friendly and attentive! Overall: I would come back for the food and maybe another kind of dessert. But I feel like their focus is all over the place. There’s too many things going on. But still, great food!

There is nothing better than patronizing a small, family-run business where they go out of their way to make you feel welcome. Peter greets us with a friendly smile and cheery disposition every time we come in. He and the staff are attentive to dine-in guests and eager to please the takeout guests. How about the food, you ask? It’s amazing! Everything is freshly prepared and delicious. Do yourself a favor and try the chicken phở: the chicken is so plentiful, you practically need a knife and fork to cut it! After dinner, complete the pampering with a gelato sandwich. It is a scoop of your choice of gelato sandwiched between two halves of a warm, fresh donut. A donut! It’s decadent for sure, but you won’t regret the calories. Do yourself a favor and stop by; we were glad that we discovered it!

This place has everything a person would like. Great vibe, the owner Peter is super friendly and will go above and beyond to make a customer happy. I’ve been to other Vietnamese places in the area(which does not have a ton) and Signature Dessert really has a unique«feel at home» taste of Viet food. My favorite has been their Spring Roll, Garlic Noodles with Shrimp and their Macaroon Ice Cream. OMG! I know there are only two flavors available for the Macaroon but it is enough. The Gelato choice is pretty amazing.

Ambience: 5 stars Loved the music, clean, free wifi, they have charging cables for your devices Food: 4 – 5 stars My daughter loved the meatball phở, my husband loved the grilled pork banh mi and I though it was tasty too but would like less fat on the meat, fried egg rolls were good-5 stars, Caesar salad was okay– no regular croutons-3 stars, Jasmine tea boba 5 stars delicious, Vietnamese iced coffee 5 stars Service: 5 stars, friendly and they always checked to see how we were doing We enjoyed our first visit here and we will be back This place is open until 11:00pm on Fridays and Saturdays. I really like the steamed bao. It is flavorful and you don’t need the dipping sauce. I also like the broth in the chicken phở but I don’t care for the chicken. Fried bao is good too but the steamed one is probably healthier. We’ve also tried clam chowder several times and it’s good. It was served to us today lukewarm though and it took a while to get it back. Today I found out they have rewards program. Once you spend $ 50 you get a $ 5.00 off coupon.

Signature Desserts has been bookmarked on my page for a while now, but only made it out when I was in the area of Laguna Niguel. This restaurant serves ice cream, baked goods, smoothies, tea & coffee, and French and Vietnamese food. They are trying to set the trend of giving their customers a unique experience and a taste of luxury. And, I somewhat agree to that due to my experience. My boyfriend and I happily stopped by here after the lunch rush. WOOHOO, only one person was here! The place was cutely decorated with lounge chairs and photos of their yummy drinks and food. The place is super clean and beautiful. They even have plug in cords for you to charge your phone! Woot! We were excited to try their food until we found out that some of the items were sold out already such as Vermicelli Noodles(Bun thit nuong) and Spring Rolls(Goi Guong)! WHAT! Already? No way! Okay, no big deal. So then, we settled for other items to eat and to drink. The staff members were friendly, but it felt very forced since I can see how tired they are. I think it was a nice gesture that they were trying to be attentive and accommodating to us. However, I did not like the fact that they knew I was taking photos of their food and the restaurant to pick up their game and service. What we’ve had: Lychee Jasmine Tea — the tea was strong, but just right. There’s also lychee bits in the drink. Spicy Mango — OHEMGEE. I really love this drink because it’s so refreshing. It seriously tasted like you are drinking the Mexican candy! Garlic Noodles(with shrimp) — spaghetti noodles tossed into butter and garlic with some cilantro, flakes, parsley, and their signature sauce. This dish was on the light side, but could of been more garlicky and buttery. I had better. Pastalaya Noodle(spicy) — spaghetti noodles mixed in tomatoes, bell peppers, sauteed chicken, shrimp, onions, and hot and spicy cajun sauce. This was definitely not spicy and only A-OK. This was also light, but not much flavor for you to enjoy. It’s like eating bland noodles with veggies and meat. Seafood Egg Rolls(Cha Gio) — stuffed with crab, carrots, shrimp, glass noodles, and Jicama. It comes along with a side of sweet chili dipping sauce. It was super crunchy and juicy. You can taste all of the ingredients each bite you take. This was the best item we ate out of everything. Overall, Signature Dessert is doing too many things at once and should just pick a main focus to specialize in. It’s hard to be good in so many things, but I am not saying it’s not impossible. I do still see potential in their business growing and working their way in the hearts of the locals because they are working hard and doing their best. And if you are in this area then make sure to stop on by! ASALWAYS, NOMFORLIFE!

An amazing variety of unique desserts, delicious Vietnamese food, and a beautiful clean interior. Such a fun place to bring friends and hang out over a cup of boba tea, maybe paired with one of their extravagant macarons. Their macarons… ugh, so delicious and perfectly made! If you love passionfruit, you absolutely MUSTTRY their passionfruit macarons. Tart, fruity filling, and the cookie is perfectly dense, crisp and soft. The interior is cheerfully decorated with bright colors, comfy seating, and a whimsical ice cream parlor aesthetic. The owners are incredibly nice and accomodating. I hope to see their business grow, which I’m sure it will, as more people discover what a gem this place is!

I read some of the 1 – 3 star reviews and it just didn’t sit with me very well since there were also 5 star reviews. I decided to come here with my bf for lunch. It was a dream come true because they served meals and yummy desserts so I didn’t have to stop at two different places! :) Service: Wonderful! The business owner was awesome taking our orders, and super friendly. He came by to ask us how our food was and was very helpful when I was picking out my dessert. Another worker came out to serve the food and also asked us how everything is! Food: Filet Mignon Phở It’s expensive for a small bowl of phở. I really wished it came in a larger size. The meat was fantastic. Soft/tender just what I wanted! I also thought the soup was delicious. I would love to have this again, but it’s really expensive so I have to think about it. Waffle Burger I was hesitant at first since I tried a ramen burger before and it sucked. Just wasn’t sure how a burger would taste without actual buns, but waffles are closer right?. Took my first bite, and it totally changed my mind!!! It was so good. I’m dying to have another one. Loved the special sauce that came with it. The waffle itself was very delicious. Definitely had the flavor I was looking for. Vanilla Brownie gelato YUMMERS! One of my favorite desserts is vanilla with brownie. Satisfying!!! A bit pricey though since the single scoop they give isn’t as generous as Thrifty’s. I really wanted to give a 4.5 stars just because it was a expensive, but the service was great so 5 stars!

This place was advertised being new in the area. With the friendly service and introduction we got here, they delivered with good impression. Since it was our first time here. The lady took the time to introduced us what they offer and that was ice cream, pastries, iced drinks, coffee, Vietnamese noodle soups and sandwiches. I was surprised a store this small offers so much. I rarely see these around, so I had to go with their Spicy Mango drink. The mango juice was sweet and refreshing, it was a well-rounded drink. My favorite part was the chunks of mango and the sprinkle of the chile lime salt seasoning. It’s pricey at $ 5.45, at least it’s a good cup size. The order was their Hot Lavender Latte. The first thing I saw, it’s frothy. It’s sweet and you could taste the Lavender flavor along with the milkiness. This choice was cheaper than the Spicy Mango. Also, we ordered their Red Velvet Cupcake its in small size. Our son finished it before I can even take a picture of it or even taste it. When we sample the Red Velvet ice cream it tasted icey and not as creamy. I’d pass on that one. They have a cable tucked between the couches to charge various mobile devices, while staying. There’s a lot of items to choose from and I would like to try out their appetizers and entrees next time and to see if it’s a «signature» of good eats.

They serve mainly desserts with a wide variety but if you’re looking for a fancy dessert stop this is not the place to be. They don’t serve anything special, but it isn’t bad food. Would probably be better if they focused on one main food concept instead of trying to sell full meals as well as dessert. Its supposed to be vietnamese but macaroons aren’t asian. The food is vietnamese though.
