Came all the way from Ottawa but was told they close at 8:45pm today when I arrived, no explanation... the worker didn't even really care and wanted to get out. Nov 29 - changed my review from 1 star to 5 star. I went back and the owner was there and he was very kind and offered me a free treat and explained the situation. We talked about the store and his other locations. the desserts are great and the owner is great at customer service.

Second time coming here as it was recommended by my partner's friend. She said that the salted egg yolk ice cream was really nice so we got that one the first time. We also got their durian crepes which I know can be off-putting because of the smell but I really enjoyed that too. This time we got the Vietnamese yogurt, caramel flan, cupcakes, and the avocado ice cream. They were amazing and full of flavour but not overly sweet! Really enjoyed the cupcakes as they were soft and fluffy and the salted egg yolk and pork floss was a nice touch. Unfortunately, their ice cream machine was already shut down so we didn't get to try that one. The staff was really nice though and service was fast. Would come back and try the drinks and other things as well.

They sell all types of Vietnamese sweet treats like bánh bông lan trứng muối, bánh bò, crepe sầu riêng, all types of chè, sữa chua nếp cẩm, bánh flan and much much more. They also have other Vietnam/South east asian inspired sweets like salted egg yolk choux creme, which was my favorite. The cookie crust was crunchy, the filling was generous and packed with so much flavor. Sadly they don’t sell ice cream anymore during last week of Sept when I was there, but it seems like it was also a popular item.

Love the salted egg sponge cake! The salted egg crispy cream puff is also great, but I think it could be better if it has stronger flavour of salted egg!

Randomly checked this place out after eating sushi next door and we were all pleasantly surprised. All the items looked so good but I went with the green thai tea along with the mango and salted egg ice cream. It was really good and not bad price wise. The salted egg ice cream was interesting, my cousin loved it but it wasn't my favorite. Definitely give this place a try!

This is my second time at Xe Kem and I really like how they have a variety of flavours and dessert items! I got the caramel flan, Vietnamese yogurt, salted egg cupcakes and avocado ice cream. (1) Caramel Flan - it was silky, smooth and the sweetness of the caramel was not too overpowering. (2) Vietnamese Yogurt - a refreshing and creamy dessert which is perfect to cool down on a hot summer's day. (3) Salted Egg Cupcake - this huge cupcake is deliciously crafter with the saltiness of the egg, savoury notes from the meat floss, the creaminess and sweetness from the soft and spongy cake. (4) Avocado Ice Cream - their ice creams are always great. You can really tell that it's home-made as the flavour of the natural Avocado was very prominent unlike other ice creams that are usually packed with sugar. Unfortunately, I didn't get to try their soft-serve ice cream as I got there 30 minutes before closing time which is when they turn off the machine. The owners were very polite and patient. I'd come back again!

Delicious and Unique Desserts at Xe Kem! This was our first time visiting Xe Kem, and we were blown away by the experience! We picked up a couple of "Durian Sweet Dessert" cups, egg pudding, and coconut jelly, and everything was so delicious. The coconut jelly, in particular, was a standout – it was both soft and crunchy, a texture I’ve never experienced before. The flavor was perfectly fresh, not too sweet, and I was pleasantly surprised to find fresh coconut meat inside the jelly. It’s a must-try! The egg pudding was good, but what really stole the show for me was the Banh Trang Tron. I’ve had this dish before, but Xe Kem’s version is truly the best I’ve ever tasted. The sauce was incredibly flavorful, and they even included a plastic glove and utensils so I could mix it at home – such a thoughtful touch! I never expected it to be this good, and I’m already looking forward to my next visit to try more of their offerings. Xe Kem has definitely become a go-to spot for me!
