    I'd always spot this colorful little shack so this day I had a couple of minutes to spare and gave them a try. There's parking right out front for a couple of cars. Not much space. The menu was extensive but I can't stray away from my favorite snowball flavor which is green apple. The prices were reasonable, the service was nice, and they were pretty quick. I also ordered corn in a cup. It was okay. The one I chose with the Tony's on top was a little to salty for me. I'd go back if I'm ever in the mood for a snowball. It was pretty good. Was the softest ice I've ever had but it was still good.

    One of the best snowballs in the greater nola area!! The ice is shaved super finely and they have a variety of flavors! The staff is very kind as well!

    We stopped by here for some tasty treats. They did not disappoint! My girls were happy that they were able to try a TikTok trending mango ice cream. My husband got the banana split and I got a Tiger's blood snowball with condensed milk. Everything was delicious and we all left happy! Friendly service as well. Definitely give them a try!

    Very good food. Very good environment. Very good service. Very good music. Very good snowball. Would recommend to people traveling here.

    I got a mangonada and it was frozen....legit frozen. To be fair, he did tell me it would be frozen but I expected a slush....overall the mangonada was good...would have been better if it wasn't frozen. The other four snowballs we got were good. The ice was fine. Oh and the prices weren't bad either.

    Mangonada completely frozen

    The place is very nice and pretty. Everything else is great but their mangonada. It is legit frozen. It tasted gross after it is thawed out.

    I was just driving in search for a playground for my nephew when I noticed a bright house that has been converted to snow ball stand. I made a U-turn and check them out. Glad I did because sold not only snowballs, they also sold Elote! I love corn. It's a drive from where I live but a short ride from where I work. We end up with a Blood Tiger Flavor kid snowball with an extra charge for two cherry on top and one Cajun corn and one Elite Loco. You can either have your corn in a corn paper tray or wrap in foil. It's looks so much yummy to have it open in the corn paper tray. The only complaint I have would be that the corn wasn't roasted more. We all enjoyed our snacks. The staffs are friendly. I love it that you can either pay in cash or credit cards. I actually came back the next day and try their mangonada, elote Fuego (spicy then the Elote Loco) and corn in a cup. I'm so glad they're not close by or else I will be here almost every day!

    Absolutely the best snowball place in the city of New Orleans. So many amazing choices.

    I can't say enough good things about this place! The food was incredibly fresh, flavorful, and…read moreabsolutely delicious from the first bite to the last. My sister moved to Louisiana two years ago and has always said it's been hard to find truly great food, so we were excited to give this place a try--and it exceeded every expectation. The woman who took our order was one of the sweetest people we've met. She was so welcoming, patient, and made us feel right at home, which made the whole experience even better. The tostones were perfection--served hot and crispy on the outside while staying soft and fluffy on the inside. The breakfast arepa was outstanding and paired perfectly with the fresh cilantro dipping sauce. Every bite was packed with flavor, and you could tell everything was made with care. The restaurant itself was spotless, bright, and inviting, creating such a comfortable atmosphere to enjoy a meal. Great food, amazing service, and a clean environment are the perfect combination. I would recommend this place to anyone looking for an unforgettable breakfast. It was hands down one of the best breakfasts I've ever had, and I can't wait to come back and try more of the menu!

    Que deliciaaaaa! Las mejores arepas que he probado! I tried these arepas at a pop up for Hispanic…read moreheritage month celebration and I cannot wait to go to the actual location because they were excellent. I'm usually not a fan of trying people's arepa because either the masa is dry or altogether they aren't savory enough for my liking. This one on the contrary was so cheesy and packed with flavors that left me wanting and quite frankly needing more. Yall will be seeing me in here. I also tried these mangoneada which was good just personally I like more chile so I would just ask for some more hot sauce.

    Not the best customer service experience. I went here for Taco Tuesday with a group of eight…read morefriends and the service was lacking from the start. We weren't greeted, we had to ask for chips and salsa after our drinks arrived, and we had to ask for sauces once the food finally came. The food itself was a letdown, as the salsa and beans were extremely watered down. Additionally, while Taco Tuesday is listed on the menu, they don't specify that there's an extra upcharge for beef. I wouldn't recommend it if you are looking for good service and clear pricing.

The waitresses were kind and quick to take my order. I ordered a simple fried fish and a queso for an appetizer. The queso was simple and just ok. The salsas were not spiced at all and were very watery. The dish came and it was extremely greasy, I get that it's a fried dish but at least let some of the oil drip off before plating. I used several napkins to try to take off some of the excess oil. The fries were very soggy and not seasoned at all and the fish looked appetizing but when I bit into it, it had no flavor whatsoever. The texture was there and it looked like it was going to taste good but it fell extremely short in taste. On the flip side, the beans were overly seasoned. The rice was also lacking salt. I felt bad when the waitress came to ask me how everything was. I had to tell her that they completely forgot to season my food. She apologized and I said it wasn't her fault and asked for my check and told her she might want to tell the chef to not forget the salt next time. Overall the place was nice for group gatherings, although the music was a little loud, they also had several TVs playing different things. Maybe I selected the wrong dish but I have to say I won't be going here again when I want a good Mexican seafood. I'll have to check out their other dishes and hope they're much better. For now they won't be added on my places to frequent during my work trips.
