“ This place has probably the best desserts I've ever had in my life. Anything you can think of, savory, fruity, creamy, spicy. Their desserts are freshly made and they even run out of the popular items (like the crepe cakes) at night. On weekend nights the place is packed. I've also gone during the day and their coffee is absolutely fantastic. One of these days I really want to order a cake here for my birthday. Ambiance is cute and cozy and service is great! ”

“ Cute Asian Cafe in Chinatown Shared the earl grey cake with some friends and it was pretty decent. Light, fluffy, and not too sweet. My friends got drinks (don't remember the exact name but they were milk teas) and they said they were pretty decent. Overall this was a standard Asian Cafe/bakery but nothing stood out for me ”

“ SUCH a cute dessert spot in Chinatown! We came on a Saturday evening and while it was crowded, we didn't have to wait for a table for 2. We ordered their signature mango mousse dessert, which came with a side of ice cream. The mousse was heavenly, with a thin surrounding layer of white chocolate and real mango within. They had a stunning display of other creations that I would love to come back to try! ”

“ Asian/french inspired desserts in Chinatown. We ordered the polar bear dessert ($11) which was a vanilla mousse with hazelnut praline and chocolate cake. It was a little bit too sweet for my taste but the presentation was very cute. The place has limited seating but we didn't have to wait to be seated. Nice spot if you want to grab late night dessert ”

“ I wish we had one of these in my town! It has become a tradition to grab a mango mousse cake while visiting family in Philly! This is located in Chinatown in downtown Philly. No matter what cake I try here, I always gravitate toward the mango mousse because I love not only the taste, but the artistry behind the presentation of the cake! There is a white chocolate layer, mousse, a bit of sponge, and a mango filling in the center. The amount I pay for desserts at other shops, I feel the pricing is fair here for such a presentation and quality product. The brown bear and chocolate macarons were enjoyed by the rest of the family. They have an extensive drink menu, so hopefully can try something from there as well. Till next time! ”

“ A La Mousse is a solid dessert spot if you're in the Chinatown area. They're open late for a weekday compared to other nearby places. It was a chilly night so I went with the hot cherry blossom matcha latte. Imagine a matcha latte with notes of cherry blossom in it. It was delicious in my opinion and the best part - not too sweet. Their matcha chocolate cake is usually one of my go-to's - dark chocolate cake with matcha chocolate mousse and vanilla chantilly. Their matcha chocolate actually tastes like matcha so I'm happy about that. Great paired combination with the chocolate and vanilla. Other recommendations: coffee mousse and hazelnut mousse, and the mango. There are tables inside suitable for small groups. It was clean and spacious enough when I went there. Surprised I haven't written a review before, but I definitely recommend bc I keep coming back here whenever I'm craving dessert in Philly. ”

“ Absolutely delicious and adorable desserts! The place was packed (at 7 pm on a Sunday night) so we opted for take out. We ordered two desserts and two milkshakes. We were asked if we minded waiting 5-10 minutes for the milkshakes and we said, "Fine." We ended up waiting 15 minutes, which was slightly frustrating because I felt in the way the whole time because I use a mobility aid. The desserts (brown bear and polar bear) and milkshakes were absolutely delectable. Would go back, but would skip the drinks if they're swamped. Note: there is one step up to get into A La Mousse with no other entrance with accessibility. My husband had to lift my rollator and guide me in. ”

“ I was really excited for the ube salted egg yolk cake since this was the one speciality item that I feel like I hadn't really seen before but this was really disappointing. There was almost no salted egg yolk flavor, it was all only one thin layer of cream. The ube fondant on the top was also hard to cut through and the cake itself was just okay. We came for the matcha lava cake, which was pretty good! The matcha lava was really thick and rich, and the matcha flavoring was pretty strong. The matcha ice cream was also really tasty, mixed with the warm cake and lava it was delicious. Definitely one of the better lava cakes I've had! The other desserts we got were pretty standard, felt like they would have been pretty similar if we got them at any other dessert shop but they weren't bad. ”

“ Solid dessert spot with adorable desserts and some really tasty options. You definitely pay a premium for the aesthetics, but the enjoyment of seeing such cute treats and flavor combos make it worthwhile. I tried the bear mousse cake and tiramisu plant a while back in a takeout order and they were both great, but mostly recently tried dining in. The tables are a bit close so you do end up hearing your neighbors, but you do get ice cream with some of the pastries when you dine in. We tried this sleeping white chocolate bear that came with a fruity ice cream and also a hazelnut mousse cake that was paired with a sea salt caramel ice cream with caramel cups and rice crisps. Both were great, but I preferred the chocolate dessert as the bear and fruit ice cream were quite sweet. ”

“ Located in Chinatown Philly, this cute little bakery serves up beautiful pastries. The ordering process; however, is confusing. After standing in line, we were told that to dine in we needed to grab a seat and wait for a server to take our order. Rather than wait even longer, we elected to take it to go. It's unclear to me, but I think you only get the scoop of ice cream with the dessert if you dine in. We had the chocolate bear and the yuzu cheesecake. Both were delicious! The cheesecake was refreshing and light. ”
