Amazingly friendly service. Lady at the counter was super accommodative and helpful. First time trying taiyaki ice cream and we loved it. The texture of the soft serve is between icy and creamy which I loved. Flavors were not too sweet to our liking. I ordered a fruit tea which was overly sweet but it was my mistake that I didn't mention adjusting the sweetness. Overall great place for ice cream! read more

This place is so cute! From the decor to the food. The man making the fish was so adorable. He was energetic and peppy when serving us. We ordered the Hokkaido boba. Okay. 3/5 Taiyaki with filling (Nutella, taro, custard, red bean, Oreo) 3/5. Taiyaki with ice cream ( strawberry ice cream and red bean filling) I very much enjoyed it 5/5 Plenty of space to eat outside. They do have a couple of seats to sit inside. Overall would come again. read more

YUMMY AND DELICIOUS wish they gave more chocolate sometimes, but probably for the best they don't since it could be a health hazard, LOL, I'm such a sucker for chocolate fhekfhskbs I love this place, I go every chance I get.

A friend and I were in the area and wanted a sweet treat. I saw in the window that they sold boba and taiyaki, which I was surprised about. We went in, there are two entrances, side and the front. There was bar seating and tables inside as well as patio seating outside. The shop looks like your typical ice cream shop, with blue, white, and yellow accents along the walls and decor. It looks very sweet. The servers greeted us when we came in and said to let them know if we had any questions. The menu is on a wall and there are alot of options. There's the taiyaki, soft serve, milk tea, fruit tea, and smoothies. I chose the speciality drink (lavender with taro wave boba) and my friend the Thai tea with 2 piece taiyaki with Nutella filling. We didn't wait too long for our orders. There is also a restroom inside. I really like my drink but it very sweet and there was a lot of boba in it. Not too bad and the taiyaki was good but very gooey. read more

Came on a Saturday evening. Wasn't busy at all. They offer the kiosk or the register to order. The kiosk different offer everything on the menu. So ordered at the register. The staff was rude didn't really care. First time here and I wanted to know what the best selling ice cream was but they answered with one word. But overall the place is clean. So many items to choose from. The serving size is was too much for a child, so just be mindful. We weren't able to finish one serving size. Also the chocolate ice cream was already melting by the time we got it. Which was weird. But the strawberry and horchata swirl was really good. Chocolate was decent just didn't like how it was melting. Would definitely come back. read more

Break the Ice is a local dessert place in Riverside county with a Korean flair. We stopped by for dessert after a big lunch to satisfy our craving for boba. Their signature item is the taiyaki ice cream reminiscent of Somi Somi. We ordered the horchata/strawberry milk and taro/matcha taiyaki ice cream. The consistency of the ice cream was not creamy or rich but more icy, and so it wasn't as good as it appears. Super aesthetic though! In terms of cleanliness, customer service, and atmosphere, it is a nice quiet shop with ice cream or boba options. However, I didn't think the quality of the ice cream was better than Somi Somi or specialty ice cream places. read more

Break the Ice - Matcha and Viet Coffee swirl with Nutella Taiyaki - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Riverside, California

Came here for a sweet treat after having a hard day. Instant pick-me-up! The employee was energetic, enthusiastic, and kind! He helped us right away, and even offered a recommendation. He was also very quick/efficient, as he had both of our drinks and taiyaki ice creams out in under five minutes! We tried to tip but there wasn't an option in the tablet, so we went to the ATM at Ralph's to get cash for a tip haha Everything was delicious! The strawberry milk tea and Thai tea were flavorful, yet not overly sweet- just right. The Vietnamese coffee ice cream was strongly caffeinated, which I appreciated the energy boost! And the Taro ice cream was very refreshing in the hot weather! The taiyakis even came with Pocky/Pepero sticks and some mochi :) With the taiyaki cart decor and the many Nutella jars on display, the cafe is cute and cozy! It really is as their cups say: "the best bubble tea in town" read more

I would love to try this place in person to sample the other flavors. Overall, it was really yummy. The prices are reasonable considering it's a novelty item. I'm glad that we have one of these shops next to campus :) read more

Came across this cute dessert shop visiting daughter at school. Owner is nice and shop is very clean. Drinks are good but a bit too sweet for my tooth. Taiyaki were good as well.

The ice cream had an odd flavor. They got my order wrong and we went to ask if it could get replaced. The worker took forever and then I overheard another worker complaining saying "they asked for custard so what do they even want us to do". I didn't not ask for custard. The worker asked me if I still wanted it and I denied and left. read more

Have had taiyaki hot and filled with cheese and also filled with ice cream and custard. Ice cream flavors are fun, very California. You can get classics like matcha and ube, and also horchata. Everything I've had here is tasty, shop is clean, and help is fast and friendly. Don't like to talk to humans? They've got a kiosk where you can order and pay. Seeking on the patio is nice, weather permitting. read more

When food is fun it brings smiles! Seeing these waffle fish heads chomping down some froyo just makes you want one. There's an array of flavors to choose from along with fillings. Great service as he explained the process of ordering. Loved the choice we made. So refreshing with some texture, light toasted waffle, soft yogurt, red bean paste, chewy and sticky mochi. Such a fun concept and so appealing as we eat with our eyes first.. then the camera... then us lol read more

Yummy place to try. Even tried the boba and it was actually delicious. Love more options to replace Starbucks

This place is located in a spacious plaza and there are also plenty of space and area not only for your car, but for yourself! There are bar seating, and regular tables and chairs inside as well as just outside of it. We came in on a weeknight to try the strawberry milk tea. They make the drink really quick! We placed the order, paid, and it took a couple minutes before they called out for us to pick it up. The drink itself is very pink and very sweet!! I think next time I would have to adjust the sweet level here. Otherwise the place is neat, customer service is good, and I would try the other drinks/snacks on the menu. read more

First time going, I ordered a cookie monster and vanilla with taiyaki filled with nutella. The vanilla had no flavor, but the cookie monster was delicious but the amount of ice cream is very generous. The lady at the counter was very quiet and rarely talked, didn't greet anyone that entered. My favorite thing of it all had to be the Taiyaki filled with nutella!

The matcha ice cream was the best! Employees are so helpful and attentive. Will definitely be coming back here soon with family!

It seems to be a popular place as there was a long line when we got here on a Friday night. The workers were helpful and let us try out some of the soft serve flavors as it was our first time. The flavors were good but not the best. The vanilla reminded me of the soft serve you get at buffets. They do offer unique soft serve flavors so there are many more that you may enjoy. I decided on the Matcha. It was the best flavor for me. Subtle and not too sweet. The Taiyaki was crunchy and soft. I really enjoyed it! I would return and just get a couple of Taiyaki's with Nutella filling. They have a restroom and minimalist decor. They have a cute stand that's somewhat of a photo op. I'll share a picture of it. read more

Super cute place for boba, drinks and dessert! Employees are great, and service is quick and friendly. There's ample seating inside as well as out. Got 5 taiyaki to try/share and a Hokkaido milk tea with boba. I tried the custard filled and a sausage & mozzarella; both were good but the dough tasted a a little gummy and possibly could be cooked a little longer. Otherwise, I recommend coming here and trying them out! I will be back to get the filled taiyaki ice cream! read more

Glad they have this taiyaki soft serve over in the Canyon Crest plaza! It's a cute little shop, definitely worth a visit. Stopped by for dessert after dinner and it was just what we were looking for. They sell different kinds of soft serve ice cream with the option to swirl adjacent flavors. I've only been once but it seems like they rotate the different flavors around for different combinations. You can also add a filling to the taiyaki They also serve milk tea in addition to the soft serve. Their service is pretty friendly and bring things out fairly quickly. Solid option for sure read more
