The original Japanese cheesecake is absolutely delicious. We tried it in the store for the first time and had to buy another one to take home! The prices and sizes could be a little questionable, but quality and flavor make it worth it. We also tried the strawberry iced matcha latte and the coconut matcha iced latte which were both good and matcha wasn’t lost in all the sweetness. Amazing food, great ambiance and friendly staff.
I like their matcha vanilla latte and pistachio cheese tart. The original cheesecake was so-so for that price. Ice vanilla latte was alright, can find better elsewhere.
Clara was so friendly and nice. She was kind enough to explained to us about the baked goods Uncle Fluffy is known for as well as enjoyed by everyone. Must try their pistachio cheesecake and the original cheesecake. They sell mini tarts in original cheesecake, pistachio, mocha and more! They have a selection of hot/cold coffees, lattes, matcha and many more.
Came across this restaurant/bakery on Facebook, we have been looking for fluffy Japanese cakes, The restaurant looks very clean and spacious, they have plenty of tables. We ordered a Japanese Cheesecake (which was delicious, fluffy, and very moist). My son ordered 3 vanilla mochis. I would recommend it if you're looking for something quick and sweet.
If you are a fan of cheesecake, you gotta come here! Their cheesecake is so fun to eat and is equally delicious! Light and fluffy, while still being rich and decadent. An excellent combo that is sure to have you coming back for more 👌
Tasty Japanese Cheesecake that is a bit pricey but unique. Atmosphere was bright and cheery. Digital menu board was crowded. Large seating area could accommodate quite a few people enjoying beverages and treats but the only people there when we visited around lunch on a Sunday were vagrants charging items at the tables. A bit off-putting. Actual cheesecake is significantly different than American cheesecake. Light and fluffing in texture with mild sweetness. I quite liked it. We also purchased a strawberry tart. This had a strange aftertaste that I would not purchase again. Fun place to try, but a bit too pricey for what it is.
I was curious about this place, so I decided to go in and try. Very silky and fluffy cheesecake! I got it with a Carmel topping. It was a mild sweet, which i liked because i don't like super sweet things. It was about $10 for a regular size one. The medium size was about $20 and the large almost $50. [Correction: large is $39.99. I meant to put $40 and hit the 5 instead!] I also got a blended chai. It was more milky and sweet. A nice summer treat! Nice workers who let me take my time looking at the menu and answered my questions.
Uncle Fluffy has made its way to Riverside to bring us their take on Japanese cheesecake and tarts. FOOD / DRINKS The delicate, light and fluffy Japanese cheesecake just melts in your mouth and is not to be confused with the dense and heavy American cheesecakes. I tried their Original Cheese Tart and their Mango Tart and I preferred the Mango Tart. Not outstanding but not terrible either. The Original Tart had an off-putting “it’s been sitting in the fridge” taste. Ugh. On a positive note, the cheesecake was good and I enjoyed it. They do have delicious-looking drinks or teas I’d like to try some time. LOCATION / PARKING Uncle Fluffy is located on Magnolia near Tyler (across from the Galleria at Tyler) in Riverside. There’s limited parking, as the lot is shared by other neighboring businesses within the plaza. ATMOSPHERE The shop is decorated in almost all white from the flooring to the walls and to the table; however, the atmosphere didn’t feel bright or open for me. It had a weird ambiance - almost uninviting. The lighting was a bit dim too (see photo). It’s one of the things I look for so this was a minus in my book. SERVICE Being that I was the only one in the shop, I expected good service but the girl who helped me wasn’t as helpful as I’d like. I asked her which items were most popular here but she didn’t have any recommendations for me. BRANDING I like their signage at the front - good font choice. But the box and overall branding wasn’t up to par with my personal taste in gift-giving. The box itself is glossy but with outdated hues of yellow and brown that didn’t match the more prettier posters at the front of their store. Overall, I think it’s great that Riverside to has a different dessert option like Uncle Fluffy. I do like their cheesecake and would happily recommend you try it!
