Snow Iceland

First timer! I ordered a small Coconut Shaved Ice topped with Strawberries. A small runs rather large so you could definitely share with another person. I, however, ate the whole plate. If I were to describe how the Shaved Ice was, it would be light and fluffy. Definitely had more flavor than it did «Ice».
The environment is really cute. Kind of like you’re inside a snowflake? Adorable. lol.
The staff was welcoming and friendly!
I definitely recommend this place for those who like Shaved Ice :)

This place is great place for a hot summer day ! The girls loved the vanilla shaved ice. However my favorite would be mango w mango fresh bits OR the taro is just delicious. They have water on the side to get yourself which I like because after every sweets I love to wash things down w water. The décor is extremely and cute lol.

The basic milk tea with boba that I ordered wasn’t good. $ 3.75 seemed way too overpriced for it, especially for not tasting good. Cashier was friendly.

I previously gave this establishment a 5 star rating, but have been disappointed in my past visits. The toppings are not fresh and the portion has become smaller but the price has stayed the same. The employees were acting like what are we doing coming in and eating our shaved snow there as if we were bothering them. The place is always empty even on a Sunday afternoon.

First thing I noticed when I walked in was how clean and beautiful and cute the place is. The décor and color is simple, but amazing and the place is very well kept. The cashier/​worker was very helpful and nice as I told him it was my first time here. He gave me a 10% discount and said if I come again, mention it again and I’ll get 10% off again. There was no crowd on a Friday noon, but it did take quite a bit for my drink and popcorn chicken to come out for me being the sole customer, but I was in no rush. This place gets mad points for aesthetics and service.
So why did I give this 2 stars? Well, despite the above mentioned, the drink and popcorn chicken weren’t what I was expecting, unfortunately. While waiting, I was talking to the worker and he saying the owner is trying to do a fusion type of deal, which seemed like the Asian (boba/​shaved snow) /​American mix. They are expanding their entrees into sandwiches, nothing unique (ham sandwich, etc, you know the deal). Anyways, to my surprise there wasn’t milk tea or thai tea on the menu… which was kind of weird as that is the general standard at any boba place. I went ahead an ordered a mocha with boba. In general, teas/​drinks are usually really sweet, but the mocha (and for being a mocha) was hardly sweet at all. The boba too was less than average. Their boba was WAY too soft. Literally in 1 chew the boba basically breaks up in the mouth. Sweetness-​wise, the boba could be sweeter. Boba needs to have a balance of chewiness and sweetness (I pefer really chewy though), but theirs did not meet up to the typical boba standards. I also ordered popcorn chicken and to my surprise, they were big portions. Yet again I was surprised, they didn’t have the typical sweet and sour sauce or the sweet chili sauce for the popcorn chicken yet they had some of Buffalo Wild Wings sauces so I got ranch dressing and mango habenero (which was actually pretty good). The popcorn chicken was complete opposite of what I was expecting. I was expecting the popcorn chicken that you get at Lolicup or Ten Ren’s, but nope, this was straight up chicken nuggets that were dry. I was hoping for the juicy popcorn chicken with the chili powder, but was completely disappointed. The «chicken nuggets» were okay with the dippings, but not something I would order again.
Some of you may be wondering why I’m comparing this place to the «typical» boba store. Well, the place IS a boba store so I and any other person should come in with expectations of a general boba store.
Overall, I wasn’t too satisfied with the drink and side. In my opinion, I think the store should just stick to a general big menu boba shop like you see in the Rowland Heights area. Why? Well, there are very few boba stores in Ontario/​Rancho area and this place has high potential to become popular especially among the Asian crowd. I do not think the Asian (boba/​shaved snow)/ American (chicken nuggets and sandwiches) is a good mix. Honestly, this place would be awesome if the entrees were ramen or curry rather than sandwiches. This place will be successful if it sticks to its roots. As mentioned, the place has great service, very aesthetically pleasing, and a nice place to take a date on, but the food/​drink is a major downside so far.
I will definitely come back here but not for the drinks or sandwiches, but for the shaved snow. There seems to be a lot of good reviews about the shaved ice/​snow here so I will come to test that out. We will see how it compares to class 302 or guppies and I will update my review accordingly.

We went in yesterday the place is really cute and clean. The employees we’re really helpful, since it was our first time. We got the Large with coconut & banana flavored snow ice topped with mangos and strawberries. It’s does not have any chunks of ice, it’s actually really creamy.
It’s SO GOOD and under 8 $!
We’re definitely going back

Friendly, cheap, and good. Came here after grabbing some KBBQ a little more up north. The place was empty when my parents and I came in, but this place deserves more customers! The staff was super friendly, the portions are good for what you’re paying for, the décor is adorable, and it’s clean. They will allow you to sample any of the flavors if you’re unsure. The guy at the cashier was very sweet enough to give us a 10% discount since it was our first time here. I got the taro with strawberry and mango fruit slices and condensed milk. I loved it! Would go back for more when I’m in the area again!

Came in for the first time and will definitely come back. The staff was really friendly. I ordered a milk tea boba which was delicious and my mom loved her piña colada smoothie.

Great little place. The shaved ice texture is perfect and putting condensed milk on anything makes its heavenly. Portions are huge tho so be prepared for that. I split a small with my partner and we had to work at finishing it.

Very nice little place with great employees and greater desserts tucked away off Milliken and the 10 fwy. Might even be a little too tucked away!
I’ve tried several flavors and toppings and they are all great thanks to the softer, almost buttery texture of their shaved ice. It’s not chips of ice, but a much more palatable and creamier version I haven’t had elsewhere. Definitely worth a try.
Be warned, the portions are huge. Their «small» is something you can easily split with a friend or two, which is easy to do with plenty of seating, and even a few games like Jenga that you can play while your group settles in to conquer what seems like a mountain of shaved ice.
Nice quaint little interior, friendly people, good service, and a great tasting product. I have no more stars to give!

Food: came in to try the shave ice. We ordered a large which gives you the option of 2 flavors, 2 toppings and 1 syrup. We ordered the taro and green tea flavor with Oreo crumbs, mango mochi and condensed milk. It was a very generous portion – perfect for sharing as there were 3 of us. I really liked the texture of the ice – reminded me of fluffy cotton candy in ice cream form. It was very refreshing especially in this warm weather.
Service: friendly and accommodating. The cashier took the time to explain the menu and the available options.
Ambience: clean facility, nice seating area for lounging around. The décor is a bit cheesy but didn’t bother me.
Tips: plan on sharing the shaved ice, the portions are pretty big!

Shaved snow is yummy, around $ 4 for a small, $ 7 for a large, and 50c ea for extra toppings. A small is a good portion for ²⁄₃ people to share.
I wouldn’t recommend the snacks here at all. Not worth it! They also gave us watered down ranch sauce and ketchup that was actually sweet & sour sauce for our «popcorn» chicken which was Ehh.

I was in awe by the interior decorations when I walked in this place. Everything was so cute. I am so glad I finally found a place that serves «snow shaved ice» in the IE area.
I order a small size of passion fruit shaved ice with lychee popping bobas and I loved it! The amount given was more than what I paid for which was awesome. My two friends who had matcha macaron ice cream was disappointed with their portion. The macaron was hard and the ice cream wasn’t as tasty. I prefer shaved snow over macaron ice cream so I’m one happy gal

This was my first time visiting Snow Iceland. I wanted to try something different with my husband since we’re tired of all the ice cream and juice it up places. So we went in not knowing what to order or even what was good on the menu. The cashier was very patient and gave good suggestions, but anytime I see honeydew that’s the flavor I always go for. So I ordered the Honeydew Shaved Ice, with condensed milk and fresh strawberries poured on top… Oh man, it was so good
I will definitely be returning in the very near future.

This will probably be the most petty list of reasons for a ²⁄₅ review ever but… here goes. I don’t know why it bothered me so much, but they have a fish tank right by the cash register and food prep area. The restaurant seemed pretty clean overall, but that just grossed me out. Yes, I have OCD about some things, and I can’t stand fish tanks, especially not around food. It would have bothered me less if it was in the seating area or something, but I just couldn’t shake the thoughts of fish water or fish food falling into the slush.
The slush drink I got was just ok. I felt like the menu was somewhat confusing, but I don’t frequent these types of places so that might have been my fault. I just wanted something simple without out 20 different things stirred into it and I don’t think that came across to the girl working there. I ended up with a mango slush with «popping bubbles», which I didn’t really like. I could actually taste the artificial dye in it. I took a few drinks and thew it away.

Proper shave ice but fancier! Lol. This place is amazing. Wish they’d open one up in Laguna! ;)

This was our first time here, and we were here mostly because of the $ 5 off of $ 20 purchase. But we were all craving some sweet desert, and we ordered some boba drinks and snow ice. We got mango, taro, green tea, and passion fruit snow ice; we also got milk tea and taro boba. In my opinion, the snow ice were all really good, but the boba drinks were just way too sweet for me. So the 5 star rating is mostly for the snow ice. Yum!

This is the second ice place I’ve tried. The ice isn’t as flavorful as the other place I’ve been. With that being said, the subtle flavors are refreshing and they have flavors not available at other places. In addition, they also serve smoothies, food, and boba, which is a big plus. Their customer service is EXCELLENT, so that is a major deciding factor for me to say yes, I will be returning again.

Today was my first visit to Snow Iceland. This place is so cool! The facility is super modern and clean. I really like the décor.
Their menu varies from all sorts of snow flavors with numerous toppings to boba drinks, slushies and even food.
I ordered a large order of snow flavored in coconut and pineapple topped with popping pearls and drizzled with condensed milk. It was so yummy. The snow is so fine and is a fluffy texture. It is very different and cannot be compared to frozen yogurt at all. My son ordered a small order of chocolate snow with jelly beans and mochi. The jelly beans were not a good choice but my 7 year old doesn’t know better.
Prices are a bit high but you get a lot of snow for your buck. A small order is $ 4.99 and a large order is $ 7.99. The small order comes with only 1 topping and the large order comes with 2 toppings. Each additional topping is 50 cents extra.
I would come back here again. The staff or owners of this place were very polite and offered to let me sample the different flavors of snow.
The reason I gave a 4 star review is because they do not offer unlimited amounts of toppings. For the price that I paid, I should be able to choose more than the toppings I was limited to without paying extra.

The staff was very friendly when I came here. If you’re a college student they offer a lot of deals and coupons for you.
We had pineapple and green tea flavor snow. I had mango Mochi and mango slices. Everything was good except the mango slices. They tasted awful to me. Maybe I’m use to filipino mangoes but they did not taste fresh or sweet. Had a weird taste to them.
