I live in the Philadelphia area but I'm down Glen Burnie often and I'm glad I have discovered…read moresnowballs. Snowballs are the Baltimore area's version of Philly area's Water Ice. And boy are snowballs splendid. They are slightly different in composition In that liquid flavor is dispensed over shaved ice instead of the flavor being frozen in and then scooped out into the cup but the end result is still the same --pure happiness. When entering the property it's really nice to see that there is plenty of parking. It's also very nice to see families hanging out at the picnic table outback on a warm day eating their snowballs and having fun with one another. The times that we have been here the service has always been excellent and we too have enjoyed our snowballs. I can't even begin to count how many flavors You can order but it has to be in the neighborhood of over 40. Today myself and the SO Ordered the spearmint and the candycane snowballs. Both were refreshing, energizing and delightful. Count on seeing me there a bunch of times this summer

I've been coming to this snoball stand since I was 7 years old! I'm now 30 almost 31 years old and…read morethis is such a staple to my Maryland summer experience! There's not a bad thing on this menu! I usually get a blue raspberry snoball with marshmallow topping and it hits the spot! The sno swirl (snoball with soft serve ice cream) also hits the spot on a hot summers day. But if that isn't your speed this is one of the few snoball stands that also sells ice cream and Italian ice, too! I really enjoyed the Biscoff Cookie Butter sundae that was introduced last year and I'm glad it's a permanent fixture to the menu! The service is quick and kind and if the lines look long don't be intimidated -- they move very fast! As with traditional snoball stands there's no indoor seating but the business offers a few picnic tables you can go and sit at or you can sit in your car and enjoy your sweet treat. Parking has never been an issue even when the lines are long. Fair warning: if you go make sure you bring CASH! This business only takes cash. So don't expect any support for Apple/Google Pay, Cash App, Venmo, or any credit/debit cards.

A few benches and tables around the back but not much for seating. It is cash only! Staff is super friendly, and they take your order and make it before you leave the window so there's no confusion. It's the best spot for a snowball!

We ate there tonight on a suggestion from a friend of my father in law. When we arrived we noticed…read moreimmediately on a Saturday night, how empty it was. But I dismissed that because most Chinese places are primarily takeout. Due to a shortage of staff, we had to order and pay at the counter. Again, not a big deal. Food took some time to arrive. I ordered Red Curry seafood delight and my brother ordered General Tso. Portion were generous and food was good. Heat level of my curry was appropriate. The only issue I had was that even though we were seated at tables, all food arrived in takeout containers, even the curry. Plates were just paper. Utensils were silverware though. If they served food on regular plates, they would get another star. But for takeout, they would be very acceptable.

I would NEVER go back to this place. If you are a person of color or someone with dark skin, DO NOT…read morego. Today, I went with my friend and asked the female worker what a "Hawaiian snow cone" was. She mentioned a topping, so I asked further, "What kind of topping?" She replied that it was condensed milk. I said "Oh," and ordered a small shaved ice. As she handed me my order, she looked at her male coworker and said, "Es por eso que no me gusta servir a las morenas." (Note: Morenas can mean brunette, but in other contexts, it refers to dark-skinned people. I am a Black woman.) I didn't understand what was said, so I thanked her and left. However, my friend, who speaks Spanish, overheard the remark and said "Muchas gracias" to let them know she understood. The male worker then smiled at us. As we walked away, my friend explained what the female worker had said, which translates to, "That's why I don't like serving dark-skinned women." Shocked, I decided to go back and address the situation. When we returned, the woman refused to come to the window, so my friend asked the male worker to get her. When she finally came out, I calmly asked her what I had done to upset her. She claimed she didn't understand English. At that point, I had my friend translate the conversation. I told her I was shocked that she would say something like that in front of a customer. I explained that we live in a diverse community, and it's upsetting to hear such remarks, especially when I had done nothing wrong. Her first excuse was that there was a language barrier, which was why she made the comment. I responded that the interaction had lasted only two minutes, during which I asked just two questions. I explained that I understood her point, but asked if she realized how her words could be taken to mean she didn't like serving dark-skinned people, not just people who don't speak Spanish. She then claimed she was joking. I told her I didn't find it funny, and I didn't think anyone else would either. You shouldn't speak negatively about a customer in front of them--if you're going to make such a joke, say it when they're gone. Her next excuse was that she didn't remember saying anything. At that point, I walked away because it was clear the conversation was going nowhere. I didn't record the encounter because I wanted to have an open discussion and give her a chance to learn from this. However, it felt like a lost cause. To have her never once apologize or say, "I didn't mean for my comment to make you feel this way" shows that she simply doesn't care. I hope this experience makes her think twice about what she says in front of people. So, unless you are a light-skinned Spanish speaker, I strongly recommend you avoid this place.

Although I have tried my fair share of funky flavors, I have never come across as many unique and…read moregenuinely tasty options as those at Carmen's Italian Ice. Calling the selection good would be an understatement. Flavors and styles lined the walls, and they have even introduced seasonal spring drinks alongside their custards and Italian ice. I ordered a gelati, which came with two flavors and the option to add a warm brownie in the center. They also offer prepackaged pints to take home. The only item that could not be sampled was the not fried chicken, their iconic Shark Tank inspired creation shaped like a chicken leg, where the novelty lies more in the form than the flavor. Some flavors had intriguing names like Tiger Blood and Midnight Fantasy, and the staff were more than happy to explain each one in detail. *Midnight Fantasy: featured a chocolate base mixed with chunks of brookie. It leaned heavier with a slightly grainy texture from the cookie pieces, but the chocolate itself was not overly sweet. It worked best when paired with something lighter. The brookie itself was well balanced, with a fudgy brownie component and a cookie that had a snickerdoodle like quality. *Mango Italian Ice: had a clean, fruity flavor and a smooth texture. It was not overly icy and paired nicely with the custard on top. *Honey Milk: was my favorite of everything I tried. The honey flavor came through strongly, both in taste and aroma, while the milky richness added a smooth creaminess. It paired beautifully with the Italian ice and balanced the richness of the Midnight Fantasy. *Spring Break Soda: was an interesting take on a Sprite style drink, with kiwi syrup, blue raspberry syrup, grenadine, and cold foam. It definitely delivered a sugar rush. There was a tropical feel, but it may be best suited for those with a serious sweet tooth. There is likely something for everyone here, and the friendly service makes it easy to find your match. While I would probably skip the sodas, the Italian ice and custard stood out for their quality.

Since we started going last year, the lines get longer and longer which is only a testament to how incredible the shaved ice is. Marc makes everything only using fresh ingredients and you can tell.

There's a kiosk where you can order your ice cream of choice ( I got the Rainbow Roll ) or you can order at the counter. You get three toppings that they add in after they roll up the ice cream.

Coconut flakes, Sprinkles, and Strawberries. It's really good and refreshing after eating something spicy. A definite must visit if you crave the sweets like I do!

We have so-called shave ice here in Boston but it's not like Ono Wai's. These are served with ice cream at the bottom - YUM- and a drizzle of sweet cream on top! It's like 2 desserts in one because by the time you get to the bottom, the flavored ice made the ice cream frosty and sweet - like a creamsicle- but better! The hardest part of ordering this little cup of heaven is choosing the flavors - they have 25 - and apparently they are imported from Hawaii. Thankfully, my family ordered different flavors so I was able to try a variety. They were all rich and flavorful. I'll be back Ono Wai - I'll be back!

Unlike a snow cone, the fluffy ice absorbs the shavings versus surrounding it at the bottom of the cup. This makes for a much more flavorful experience.
