Lori TamuraJune 19, 2013Ever wondered what it would be like to eat a cloud?? I love this place and wished Brian would open one in the bay area bc it's 4.5 hours away but so worth it. Also has a sugar free syrup
Ailie ChangNovember 21, 2021What a nice surprise in the middle of little Osaka! We tried the Lava Man and Sunset Beach. Both delicious! The ice is really great. Reminds me of Hawaii.
Really, really good. If you like shaved ice, this is your place. The syrups are all true to the fruit, flavorful without being overly sweet. Free 45 minute validated parking in the structure below.
Rosi MiramontesApril 25, 2013This is not your typical shaved ice you would probably get from a paletero raspado the ice shavings are much thinner and delicate melt in your mouth really good and would definitely get this again
Carol LeeAugust 20, 2012Their shave ice comes in 3 sizes ($2.50 kiddie; $3.50 reg; $4.50 lg). $0.50 for a filling (free if checking in 1st time on foursquare or Yelp). 3 flavors + 1 topping are free (each add'l is $0.25).
John DewarJuly 20, 2012The problem with this place is the syrups are too sweet/not strong enough compared to my favorite shaved ice in Maui. Next time I'll try their homemade strawberry syrup and see if that's better.
Kaitlyn WilliamsJune 12, 2013The kiddie size is plenty but the regular cup is prettier, sno-cap was weird, mochi balls are so strange, tigers blood and piña colada are delicious flavors.
Definitely get Dole Whip! And if you get sour spray with green apple or watermelon, it tastes like an old-school warhead!!
Sara SApril 3, 2014If you get the Strawberries n Cream, be sure to order it with Fosselman's vanilla as filling!
Hasan HaiderFebruary 2, 2014Nice place...I thought I'd not find a place like this in LA...very delicious.
Gene ChuangOctober 9, 2011Li-Hing Mui and Dole whip, some real island flavor here! Plus 45 min free parking with validation at Olympic Collection!
Sam SchlesingerSeptember 15, 2013with the knowledge that our time on this earth is finite I don't know why anyone would get the same thing every time
I love getting the blue vanilla, coconut and pink lemonade
Stephanie CarlsonJune 26, 2012Go-to choices: Uji Kintoki (green tea, mochi, red bean); dole whip; blue raspberry and tigers blood- As the mayor, I'd suggest trying the new, real matcha Green Tea & don't forget Snowcap!
- Rose PerrySeptember 20, 2012Tigers Blood, Piña Colada, POG shave ice with Maui Waui filling and snowcap topping!!
Vast flavor selection and above all great service - shave ice witha smile- Stephanie CarlsonFebruary 28, 2012Uji Kintoki is BOSS here, especially now that they spread the red bean on top of the shaved ice.
I know Tiger Blood is old news... But the flavor is good! Try it. Its like strawberry coconut.
