    I mean [[HIGHLIGHT]]between the delicious food, perfect drinks, and sweet service plus calm atmosphere what's to not love?[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The guy controlling the front was super sweet and brought over our food and carefully placed all our utensils down. I got the taro milk tea and the mango cake and my bf got the crepe. We loved everything it wasn't overtly sweet, and considering I love super sweet things, everything was perfectly balanced. Super happy this was our first experience here and we will definitely come again!

    S1. Mango Sticky Rice with Coconut Milk
    Maggie H.

    This is my first time at Icy Melon, which is where the MangoMango in the Hmart plaza was originally before it moved next to the Lua and Kira Revolving Sushi. There may be limited parking near the restaurant but the plaza parking lot is large in size. The menu has a pretty good variety of desserts from crepe cakes to hot stuff. Service is straightforward because you order on the kiosk and then take a seat. Someone will bring the dessert to you, but I'm not sure how they know which order goes to what table. I got the mango sticky rice, which was light and yummy. The foam made from coconut milk really tied the dish all together with the fresh mango and rice at the bottom. The rice should have been warmer almost hot in order to bring it all together. It was lukewarm at best and more grainy than other places. We got the signature crepe with strawberries and banana with melon ice cream. I haven't had melon ice cream in a while so it was a pleasant treat. It does taste kind of artificial esp with the color. The crepe was thin, but the Nutella filling was thick and overpowering. So the crepe was overwhelmingly chocolately. Maybe go for vanilla ice cream to balance that.

    E1. Coconut Mango Smoothie

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Cute dessert bar with a lot of different options.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] On the menu they have ice creams, bubble teas, sago, crepes, and hot teas. The cashier was polite and quick and they also have a self checkout kiosk. There's a lot on the menu that I've never tried and would love to come back to try. I got a coconut mango drink that was both sweet and refreshing.

    We stopped by Icy Melon to get some chocolate sundae for take out. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The store is spotless, very nice clean interior with lots of decorative items.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Menu has all sorts of dessert items like waffle, fruity ice bowl, sticky sweet rice, crepe, smoothie and tea. There's a kiosk you order yourself. We got our order within five minutes. It was in a beautiful watermelon print thermal bag. Very impressive that they give out such nice bags instead of cheap plastic bags. The chocolate sundae was delicious. There was two scoops with Oreo crumbles and a wafer. My five year old was thrilled to have the whole thing by herself.

    M9. Lychee Green Tea
    Barbara S.

    Food was great . Got a fruit bowl with ice cream and lychee green tea. Both were delicious. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The atmosphere and service are ok.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]].. I'm not sure if the bowl is the correct name

    E5. Coconut Cantaloupe Smoothie
    Jessica Z.

    I still agree with my previous review however this is the second time they got my order wrong. The first time was a year or two ago as they made the wrong smoothie. Today, they forgot to add boba when I specifically request and paid for boba. It was a to-go order with three drinks and had left before seeing there was no boba. I would still go back in the future but be warned that you should double check your order is complete and accurate before you leave.

    The fruit dishes here are so refreshing. It feels like you are getting healthier the more you eat it but it's also a sweet treat! Would definitely grab something again if i'm in the area. The service was quick and timely. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It was pretty empty when i went there but it's really clean in there which is always a good sign.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    H1. Black Sesame Paste Soup
    Elizabeth S.

    It was ok. The interior is very nice and they took over Mango Mango, which was originally in this location. I think there is new ownership. Service was fast. We only tried one thing and it was underwhelming. It tastes like zhi ma hu, which is something easy to make in Chinese culture with some sesame paste powder. It also reminded my friend of Chinese tang yuan, which are soup balls with black sesame inside. I would have preferred tang yuan. The taste was very mild, though I did appreciate that they had these mochi balls inside.

    So this place used to be a mango mango dessert shop. We came in the middle of the day and there was only one other group. We were sat down immediately and then the waiter went to the cash register to have a meeting with other employees about shifts for the week. It went on for a while so we had to go to the register to order our food. We got our food very fast after that. The menu is very similar to mango mango- if not the same. All the same dishes. I was disappointed that the mango chunks seemed overripe and not fresh. That was very unappetizing for me. The place itself is very spacious and bright. It is located in a large plaza with other Asian restaurants.

    Sign for mango mango is gone
    Hank C.

    A replacement for the Mango Mango at this location - similar desserts, but not the same amount of mango or care that goes into the items. Menu was a little difficult to decipher ingredients in case you have allergies, so ask the servers. The sign outside is gone, not yet replaced. Two locations - Hoboken and this one, so not sure if the one in Hoboken was also a Mango Mango or if it was just an Icy Melon before. The sign inside still has the mangomango as a wifi password, too.

    Great place with absolutely delicious food and beautiful decor. Loved the mango shaved ice and the lychee green tea. Service is prompt and convenient

    C2. Mango Crepe Cake
    Neil M.

    Mango crepe cake was perfect. Exactly what I needed after Schezuan food (I probably didn't need more food but you only live once, as the saying goes).

    C2. Mango Crepe Cake  this was alright but ive had better
    alaina l.

    the food was alright to be honest, i was trying it because i was in the area but i can find better desserts at other places, the dessert i got looked waaayyy different than the picture online so i was not satisfied. the service was okay to be honest, [[HIGHLIGHT]]maybe because there's no AC it felt icky in there[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]], 5/10 it was good for a first try but i wouldn't go back

    They have friendly service and really wonderful decor inside, but it's just a little pricey for a dessert not so big.

    My first review still stands since it's only been a few months and I've been back a few more times…read more Each visit was great with no complaints. My kids love going here even though they aren't adventurous with flavors. BUT I finally tried their ice cream cake. You can order online if you want specific flavors and they usually have premade ones if you just walk in. I walked in and just ordered in person. It was a Just-Because-I-Want-It cake disguised as a belated birthday cake (which it was, but I got it because I wanted to try it). I got a 6" cake with taro and milk tea flavors inside and it came with two small cones of ice cream on top (I chose soursop and red bean for those). It is not what I expected. It is almost all ice cream with a very thin whipped cream type "frosting" on the outside - and sprinkles! - that made it look like a normal cake until you cut into it. No layer of actual flour-based cake inside. It's solid ice cream. Since it's perfectly sweet, it worked great! Also excellent for those who may have a wheat allergy (unless you get the cookie flavors) so now I'm considering one for my kid with food allergies (but not to milk). And that's the update to my review. Still a stellar place to get ice cream.

    I am obsessed with this ice cream shop because:…read more The flavors are amazing! (Black sesame, Thai iced tea, etc). The owner is soooo sweet It's next to some of my favorite Asian food spots so it's a great place to end a meal with friends or to have a date night The only thing I don't love is it's not a picturesque location on route one and minimal seating but that doesn't stop me from coming here!

    This place is a gem and really deserves to be highlighted! Although it looks like a small shop on…read moreMain Street in Metuchen, it's a booming and popular bubble tea place. Love coming here and seeing people from toddler age to folks with their grandparents. Bubble tea is for all! My husband loves to try the new fruity varieties that get added to the menu. Every few weeks there is a new, unique fruit combination that blows him away. I stick to my tried and true Thai iced tea with boba, and NOWHERE else has been able to compete. The details are what makes this place stand out. If you buy multiple drinks, they place your order in an adorable, reusable purple bag. Also, there is a rewards program. So if you're an avid boba drinker, make sure you sign up. Every few orders you can score a free bite to eat or bubble tea. Since it's a hit spot, this place can get packed at peak times (post work hours, and especially on weekends). So happy to have such a lovely shop in my town. Thanks, Akihi!

The inside was very different from your usual bubble tea spot, and it was very welcoming and cozy. I could definitely see myself just chilling and reading a book while enjoying my food and drink. I placed my order through the kiosk while looking over the menu, which had a lot of good options. I couldn't make up my mind and decided to go with the bubble tea and Oreo waffle crepe. Both items were good, and I enjoyed the waffle, which had ice cream as the filling and was stuffed with fillings, but it was a little difficult to eat since the wrapper is not very practical, and I had to use my hands, so it got a bit messy. Did I regret it? No way, I loved it; hopefully, they would just have a better container for it, lol. Definitely will get a sugar rush, so be careful hahaha. I would definitely go back to try the other flavors

This dessert shop offers authentic Taiwanese treats featuring grass jelly, tofu pudding, taro mochi balls, red bean soup, and the aforementioned shaved ice, along with egg waffles, various teas and other beverages. The limited edition summer osmanthus series caught my eye, so I went for an osmanthus milk shaved ice, infused with condensed sweetened milk and osmanthus syrup, a cloud of almond tofu pudding on top, with mochi balls, red beans, and lychee jelly tucked around the base. The flavor of the cool fluffy shaved ice is subtly sweet, lightly creamy, with just a hint of floral, and the snow melts on your tongue. The osmanthus flavor is not very strong or fragrant, however, though I've never had successful encounters with commercial osmanthus-flavored things outside of Asia, as it's a very distinctive and delicate taste that's also one of my favorite scents and culinary condiments, so I'm very particular about its faithfulness. We ordered a large since it's only $1 more than the medium, so practically begs one to order the oversized version, which is enough for 2+ people to share. But why so enormous? How about offering a personal sized one for a little less? Premium as the ingredients are, $18 feels like a lot for shaved ice. Between us two adults and one small child we couldn't finish it, but I double dog dare you to try. It was good though, and satiated my craving for a proper milk snow dessert.
