My family and I shared the elote and strawberries and cream, and I had a chamango. It was great! We could choose between white and yellow corn, and it was mighty tasty with all the toppings. Glad we got the corn, because it was a nice and savory contrast to the sweet strawberries and chamango. So it was my first time trying a chamango, and I was impressed! Here, it was served with a nice scoop of mango-flavored crushed ice on top. They were generous with the mangoes, although they were a bit under-ripe. I wish it had come with the tamarind straw, which I ended up paying $ 1 extra for. Loved the balance of spicy-sweet-sour! I finished the whole thing and was so full. I did not speak Spanish like the other customers, but thought the service was great. I would come back here.

Everything was good about this place except for the fact that we told the guy we wanted a fruit salad with yogurt, and he kept telling us, «you know it’s $ 20-$ 25», I mean if we didn’t have money we wouldn’t be there in the first place!!! We ended up paying like $ 35 for everything, and of course we didn’t complain about the price, but I felt like they need to work on their customer skills!

the strawberry banana shake was filled with whipped cream and tastes so fake although there were tiny pieces of strawberry purée. the chamango was too sweet for my taste. the customer service was good the tables were not clean off from the previous customer so we had a sticky and crumbs table

I keep wanting to try their other stuff but every time I get their«Raspado Pico de Gallo». It is sooo good it’s half snowcone with natural pineapple, then topped with chopped watermelon, orange, jicama, and cucumber, chamoy, then more snowcone ice and pineapple. Ah. Maze. Ing. One size; around $ 5 but so worth it!

I give this place 5 stars for the great customer service and the variety of items offered. Not to mention a parking lot and indoor seating. Unfortunately they close at 9pm. It was my first time here so the man at the counter was extremely helpful in explaining the different items and offered samples and allowed me to mix my raspa with mango and tamarindo and making sure the spicyness was to my liking. Also had the corn in the cup and they have a choice of white or yellow corn. I will definitely be back.

Tried it first time on a warm Sunday afternoon. It was empty inside. One guy inside spoke English and was very helpful. He let us try several flavors of raspas in little cups. I was very impressed that they had real fruit. I enjoyed my guava raspa quite a bit, but it gets rather sweet after a while as most raspas do. My companion got an agua fresca de mango, which was alright. The pico de gallo drink(made with fruit, not the typical salsa thing) looked really good, and I’d like to try it next time. I shall be back for more.

I grew up on these drinks, being from California and especially how popular they are in Los Angeles: this place hit the spot! The best raspado spot closes to me(I live in Houston). Definitely worthy of the drive for me.

We ordered the Cottage Xpress(cottage cheese, grapes, kiwi, peaches, cantaloupe, strawberries, granola) I am not a fan of melon so I asked for pineapple as a substitute and they were fine with that change. The majority of the fruit in this was pineapple so I’m glad I substituted the melon because otherwise I would have had the majority of it as melon which I would not have liked. The Cottage Xpress was delicious and very fresh! All the fruit seemed fresh except the peaches looked canned and I couldn’t tell if they were. Overall it was very good, fresh and healthy and I would definitely get it again. The serving was pretty large, I couldn’t finish it all. We also got the Bionico(plain yogurt, strawberries, apples, cantaloupe & coconut) we substituted the apples for pineapple on this one too and added granola. There wasn’t as much pineapple in this order but I shared some of mine. This one was just as good and fresh and was devoured entirely. Total this cost about $ 10 which was extremely cheap for the portions and we would go back for more!

I found the best salad in Houston. Most original, fresh, and delicious! . I ordered the Grenuda with a Strawberry Banana Smoothie. The Grenada was beets, jicama, and carrots with lime juice and chili powder. Yum! Cash only.

Ever since I was a kid, I have loved eating raspados when I went to vacation in Mexico. I have only been able to find 2 decent places in the states and this is one of these places. They use natural tamarind and other syrups and not those pre-made high fructose corn syrups from other«raspado» places. I have tried the trompo, charamarindo, and diablo. I recommend the last two if you like sweet/sour and spicy, respectively. They also have elote(corn) snacks among others.

So refreshing. My friend and I came in and got the Chamango and Chamarindo. Mixture of salty, sweet, and spicy. Our stomachs were burning but it was so good! Both of these in HUGE cups and under $ 10.

Delicious raspados I love the chamango they have a wide variety usually get my kids a strawberry shake they love it prices our kind of high though

Amazing raspados! my favorite is the chamarindo(mixture of chamoy and tamarind). I have tried«el diablo» but didn’t like it as much because i prefer sour over spice. If you like a little but of spice in your raspado, «el diablo» is perfect. Haven’t tried other items on the menu but they all look so good.

Aguas galore and so freakin much more. I had stop in this place. Come on, they are Xperts! Now, I don’t proclaim that Spanish is my first language. Nor is it my second. I can pick a part bits and pieces of it as my third or fourth… maybe. Knowing the language will definitely be a plus here. However, one word I do know — bebida. And they do that word well here. I went in with a mission — agua me up. They sent me to a small little plaque at the front with all the many flavors. And probably because I looked so out of place, I got a sample after I ordered to make sure that I would like it. Mango was definitely the way to go. Pulp at the bottom, not too much ice, perfect consistency. When Houston gets back to the 100 plus weather we know and hate, I’ll be back to this place pointing at the plaque in the front for that perfect relief from the summer pain.

I love fruit and anything that contains it. If you’re a fruity-foodie like me, and happen to be in the neighborhood, then you have to try this place. The menu is a little hard to read since ingredients aren’t actually listed. They have photos instead, which kind of made me feel like a five year old pointing to the pretty picture. You might have to ask for clarification or else you will find yourself wondering, «Does this papaya drink have onion in it?» No, it’s jicama. Anyway, Fernando was really helpful explaining the menu and even made me a few shot sized samples to help me decide. «Pico de gallo» was like a spicy watermelon slushy with a unique taste in a yummy way. Try«frescas con crema»(strawberries and cream) if you are looking for something rich & sweet(almost too sweet). They have smoothies, snow-cones, and a whole range of iced drinks with a Mexican twist. They use fresh fruits. FRESH, not frozen, canned, «fruit substitute», or whatever else big companies resort to using these days to cut costs. The best part? Price. I’ve never spent more than four bucks in there. The cups he uses are huge, like 20 ounces(think Starbuck’s venti). The location might not jump out at ya since they’re in a small strip mall, but this is one of those places you just have to go in and try to appreciate. Don’t let the outside appearance scare ya. Everything on their menu is LOADED with fruit, not fruit flavored corn syrup. They also sell 7 – 11 style nachos and hotdogs, but that’s not why people come here. I can easily see this place becoming my new summer favorite. Cash only.
