Ice rice - Bubble Tea Near Me - Rancho Cucamonga, California

The inside is super cute, very clean, and the music isn't loud to where you can't even have a conversation like in other places. It was my first time today, and the staff was very patient when I had a hard time choosing and ordering. The dessert itself was new to me, but it was really good and super refreshing! It's like a base of sweet sticky rice, topped with a nice fresh milk tea of your choice, some shaved ice, and 5 free toppings. My favorite thing was how it wasn't sickly sweet; it was just right, so I could eat the whole bowl. I got watermelon, pineapple, strawberries, grass jelly, and almonds. Very delicious! Recommend. It's like if you mixed boba drinks with sticky rice and shaved ice but without it being so sweet! Note: if you have a sweet tooth, maybe ask for more sweetener, but if not, this is right up your alley. It's a light and refreshing dessert. read more

I was wanting some Meetfresh or Hui Lau Shan but neither have locations in Rancho. Ice Rice luckily hits the same spot for me! Located next to Esporta Fitness, I couldn't resist getting a nice post-workout snack. It's fun to build your bowl. I got the ginger milk which was delicious and flavorful. The Hokkaido milk sounded appealing, but didn't taste unique or distinct from normal milk at all. The star is the sticky rice at the bottom of the bowl. It's soft and freshly made. The texture of the rice complements the milky soup and toppings very well. The sticky rice also helps Ice Rice stand out from other Asian dessert places. My major criticism is that some of the toppings taste overwhelmingly artificial. I do not recommend the strawberry jelly. It just tastes like chemicals. The rainbow mochi are soft and chewy, but it also tastes artificial and packaged. I would skip some of these options and get red beans, peanuts, grass jelly, brown sugar boba, condensed milk, and the like instead. read more

Ice rice - Bubble Tea Near Me - Rancho Cucamonga, California

Came to this place looking for a cool, refreshing, and tasty dessert. Unfortunately, it was a let down. The lady taking the order was very rude and seemed to be displeased with working there. I asked a couple of questions and got some sour and disinterested replies in return. The ice was clumpy and had huge pieces making it hard to eat. The rice was a gloopy sticky mess, and overall everything lacked flavor. The mango tasted old, but the strawberries were somewhat good or fresh. I will not be coming back, and hope they learn how to treat their customers with adequate customer service next time. The only good thing I have to say is that they do put in a good amount of toppings, I just wish the quality matched the price. read more

Ice rice - Bubble Tea Near Me - Rancho Cucamonga, California

After seeing the reviews from this place, my friends and I were intrigued to try this place. My friends and I asked questions because we were unsure of what the dessert was because we were confused of the explanation the employee gave us. She seemed pretty annoyed with us, even though there was no one else in the store... maybe we got the wrong impression but we felt negative vibes from her. Anyways, going onto the dessert, it is basically sticky rice, with tea/flavor of your choice, ice, and 5 toppings. We got the Hokkaido Milk Rice, Strawberries, Mango, Coconut, Lychee Jelly, and Mochi. Honestly the taste wasn't terrible, but it also wasn't good. It was very mid. OH ALSO the coconut is tiny shaved dry coconut, we didn't realize and it was lk sticking to our throats making us cough haha... but yeah the dessert was kinda bland. Maybe it was the flavor we got?? We are still not sure. :( Presentation was lk pretty ugly. For some reason the ice was on top for our bowl, and it made it literally just look like a bowl with ice and tea at the bottom... I saw other pictures on Yelp and the presentation was so cute and some other guy came to order and his presentation looked pretty with all the fruit on top. Probably would not come back, maybe if I did I would try the drinks but not for the rice bowl. Sad cause we were excited to try this place after seeing all the positive reviews. I'd rate it 1.7 stars. read more

I constantly come back to this place! The deserts are tasty and never fail to hit the spot. The owner is the only worker so it might take some time but i've never waited longer than 20 minutes. It's in a pretty quiet place and has cute decorations. I love that her logo is of the owner. If you're looking for a quick and new desert i'd recommend going here. read more

Wow, what a unique and wonderful Asian dessert spot. Imagine this: sticky rice, your choice of a base liquid, and 5 included toppings ranging from what would be offered at your typical boba place and fruits. Then, topped off with small pieces of ice. Honestly haven't had a more refreshing dessert than this before. The service is fine, and the environment is chill. It's not that cheap, but it's worth it and very filling. Definitely try it out. read more

I have never heard of this concept before, but after today I am obsessed. You pick a milk tea base, they throw in a sticky rice ball, and then you can choose up to 5 free toppings (any additional has an extra charge). I added sesame powder to my Thai base and it was AMAZING. At $10-$14 per bowl, it is quite a lot for a bowl but comparable to acai bowl prices. I honestly loved it. So unique and the place is decorated super cutesy with pastel colors and matching seating areas inside. There was only one woman working there and she was so nice! It was pretty empty (it was a rainy day) but we felt super comfortable and ate well! read more

I keep coming back because the atmosphere is beautiful, the service is welcoming, everything I order is a hit, and the pricing makes sense!! I ordered 2 specialty drinks with add-ons and it totaled $13!!! The neighboring shops literally could never! The red romance is the perfect blend between watermelon, strawberry, and tea. Not too sweet, but also not too bitter like most teas tend to be. I can't wait to return to try the ice jellies and yogurts! read more

EDITED REVIEW BASED ON OWNER'S RESPONSE**: If you scroll down and look at all of the negative reviews about the 'lady who is rude', you will see that these are collectively about the same owner who has failed to provide adequate customer service -- disastrous customer service! To provide full context, I purchased 2 large ice rice. By your promotion, I was supposed to receive "2 free drinks". However, you accidentally charged me for the second free drink that was supposed to be free according to your promotion. When we asked about that, you made it VERY difficult for us to get our money back for the $3.75 charge, telling us "We'd need to start from the beginning and cancel the whole order and order again". However, seeing a whole line behind me, I thought I would then just take the 3rd drink in that case (since we were supposed to get "two free drinks" already from purchasing "two large ice rice" when she accidentally charged us for the second additional free drink). This was the owner's mistake but she made it really difficult on the third drink's adjustment. At the end, she refused to provide us ANY of the complimentary drinks that were supposed to be given as part of the promotion. It seems to be that the owner discriminated my partner and I, claiming that the "the promotion is not an obligation, but a kind gesture." (As evident in her direct response) When supposedly, everyone else at the shop got a free drink except for my partner and I--we felt utterly discriminated. Ultimately, when we asked her for a refund for the peachy drink (not the full order), that's when she got very upset, and decided to give us NONE of the complimentary drinks. She also refunded us the $32 charge because she was told by her husband (the other owner working there) to.. that at the beginning said was unable to.. (She initially said we'd have to cancel the order from the beginning... yet she contradicted herself, proving that what she said at the beginning was a lie.) She just wanted to charge us for the extra money from the very beginning and didn't want to explain to us that the peachy drink I selected was NOT part of the promotion... She was incredibly rude, hostile and discriminated my partner and I, which is AGAINST the California code which mandates "full and equal accommodations, advantages, facilities, privileges or services" in business establishments. (I also saw another recently review saying this lady acted unfairly to one group of customers because they were Asian... again, all of these issues are with her given all the negative reviews are directed towards an "unfriendly worker". One of the WORST experiences I've dealt with. Not to mention this is the very reason why this shop is probably closing down -- it is evident that the workers here do not know how to respect customers with care. She was rude, hostile and gave us attitude from the very beginning without a single smile or an acknowledgment of her mistake (that she forgot to give us 2 free drinks as part of her promotion.... That she promoted!!) STAY AWAY! (Until this shop closes officially this year of course as they were conducting a close-out promotion...) JUST DON'T COME!!!!! You'll be greeted by an owner who is condescending, hostile and focuses on arguing with customers rather than providing an easy solution. read more

Located next to Old Navy, kinda hidden, I drove past it thinking it was in another part of the plaza. I chose to get the Thai Ice ($12.99) with the 5 toppings of sliced strawberries, blueberries, lychee jelly, chia seeds, and small mochi. It was not too sweet and it was a bit different from the Thai tea that I make, it's has a very light tea flavor to it. Reminds me of halo-halo, a Filipino dessert version that I grew up on or cendol which comes with green rice flour jelly with almost the same toppings. The staff is nice and the place is clean. read more

I usually have a big sweet tooth and was very excited to try this place after seeing the Yelp reviews but this is definitely not what I expected. I ordered a medium ginger milk rice bowl. It just wasn't good. Someone compared it to hui lau Shan and meet fresh but this is not comparable to it at all! Not a fan of the ice rice concept. But my friend got a yogurt drink and it was good but very sweet. The service was nice and the lady was very patient. Also the inside is cute read more

First time here so we ask the cashier what she likes, but she likes everything okay.. what's her favorite.. she didn't say... understandable its New Year day and a big group just walked in before us. The portion is small and the price I think is overpriced and they charged 4% additional for using CC. The sticky rice and chuncks of pineapple is decent not the best. We came because its something new for us, we used to have mango sticky rice at Thai Restaurant. Maybe next time we will try something else. Parking not a problem. read more

Ice rice - Bubble Tea Near Me - Rancho Cucamonga, California

I noticed this place last month after the first couple reviews came in. It looked interesting so I decided to check it out. They're located within the Terra Vista Town Center (between Ross and Old Navy). I wasn't even sure what I was ordering the first time so I my instinct was just to try the Classic Ice Rice ($12.99) base to start. You get to pick 5 toppings so I went with strawberries, mango, watermelon, chia, and boba. There's a sticky rice ball inside as well and then a milk tea is poured into it. This is not very sweet at all (other than the sweetness from the fruit) so if you want it more sweet, then ask for a drizzle of honey. I think people are picturing mango sticky rice like you get from a Thai restaurant, but this is definitely different. I took it home to eat, and wasn't quite sure what to make of it. It's like a milk tea boba soup with fruit and other toppings eaten with a spoon. I didn't realize they had red bean as a topping, I totally would have added that! I started hearing from others that the Ube Ice Rice was really good so when I was at the Terra Vista Town Center to meet up with a friend, I stopped in again on my way home. This time, I got the Ube Ice Rice ($12.99) and got red bean, strawberry, blueberry, mango, and boba. Eating this during the heat wave (it was 105 degrees that day), really hit the spot. I also ended up getting one of their blueberry drinks (Heart of Ocean) too. The second time around really got me to like this place; especially after trying the ube ice rice. Based on social media, I already know this is not everyone's "cup of tea" or that they would consider this "pricey" at $12.99, but to each their own. read more

So I really wanted to like this but it was just ok. Simple concept, pick your toppings, etc. At the end, it's just a scoop of cold sticky rice. I think it would be a great lunch option during the summer but I think it's a bit pricey for what you're getting. read more

Went to Ross for back to school and saw this interesting place, had to stop and try on this super hot day!! It's like a fruity dessert that is healthy and filling enough to serve as breakfast or lunch. The sticky rice is the star, then you add yogurt or milk tea to it with five toppings. On my first attempt I went with all the basics: strawberries, banana, lychee jelly, boba and almonds. It's a must try! I had it as a lunch but you can easily have it as a guilt-free dessert! read more

Yo Foodie! Let's kick it! Ice Rice Baby! Dun dun dun dun dun dun dun! Ice Rice Baby! All right now stop! Collaborate and listen! Ice rice is here with a brand new invention! Well at least for my tastebuds it's a new thang. Since I was new to this I just asked what they recommend for me and she choose the classic Thai rice. So this was a sticky rice base flavored with Thai tea and ice topped with fresh blueberries and strawberries sprinkled with coconut shavings then a little drizzle of honey on top. I think there was some other things but since it was my first time I couldn't put my tongue to it. LoL! Since it's summer time it's a perfect interesting cold treat to give that tongue of yours a real whirl. They have açaí bowls and other refreshing things but if your looking for something new this is the spot. And that's my take on it, Peace. read more

Big fan of this place! Great service, clean inside and most importantly the food tasted good. I ordered Hokkaido milk tea base with mango, strawberry, walnuts, lychee jelly, and mochi. It was really good and I love the concept of the sticky rice in a milk tea bowl. The dessert isn't too sweet, but just sweet enough. I would definitely return, my only complaint is the price for a large seems kind of steep for how much you get. My gf really liked her Thai milk tea based bowl as well. We hardly come out to Rancho but I would return when we do. read more

Not too sure what all the 5-star reviews are about, but this place was simply awful. We ordered the medium ube rice with the complimentary 5 toppings. Plain and simple: it lacked flavor, like, ANY flavor. The ice seemed like it didn't fit; it was just...there. The ice actually just watered everything down and it wasn't enjoyable at all. Also, the woman taking our order wasn't very friendly and had some attitude. We threw about 3/4 away. read more

Finally tried this spot out. Took a while since I couldn't wrap my head around exactly what it was and the pictures didn't help. Plus it's been cold lately. The best way to describe it...imagine watery Asian cereal but it works? Lol Cute, quant little spot near Fashion Q and Old Navy in the same plaza as Ross. Would be nice to study here since they have outlets, too. How to order: 1. Choose your base (it's more watery than milky). I opted for Ube. Would recommend. Tastes like taro. 2. Choose 5 toppings. This one was hard for me since I didn't know if it'd mesh with the ube flavor. I chose strawberry, mango, almond, mochi, coconut. Surprisingly meshed well together! 3. Choose a drizzle or powder. We went for black sesame powder because I'm a sucker for black sesame. The regular size total was $14. Overpriced in my opinion because that's a whole meal... The reason they call it ice rice is because there's little pieces of crushed ice inside. Overall, it wasn't bad but I'd rather make an açaí bowl at home. Will come back for their drinks and update my review then! read more

I also felt like the menu was a little hard to interpret. read more

I saw a lot of people mention this place, so I had to check it out. It is interesting to say the least but not something I would pay for again. It's like a watery smoothie with ice in a bowl? Nothing special It was good to eat but only because it was pretty much fruit and a base of some sort of fruit and then crushed ice? It was also not cheap for what it was, for the same price you can get an açaí bowl or ice cream. The workers were very nice and I did enjoy what I got I just didn't think it was anything special so I probably won't be back. read more

Delicious, but not your typical dessert spot! The desserts are true to its name, like slightly larger shaved ice over sweet sticky rice in a sweet liquid base and topped with toppings of your choice (like frozen yogurt).
