    Yum! Always saw this truck while driving and decided to stop and get my kids some snow cones. They have plenty of different fruit syrups to choose from and then you can choose a topping. We got condensed milk on both per reviews on Yelp. Never have had a snow cone like this before! The condensed milk makes it all like a creamy snow cone. And for only $4, it's totally worth it. Definitely should stop by and give it a try, but be sure to bring cash because that's all they accept for payment.

    This place has some of the best snow cones I've ever had! Make sure you get the sweetened condensed milk as a topping, you won't regret it. I love how their fruit syrups actually have pieces of fresh fruit in them. I've never been to a place that does that and it is a game changer! On the weekends, there's usually a decent line of people waiting to order. But we didn't have to wait that long so I was impressed with how quickly they got through the line. Important note that it's CASH ONLY and our snow cones were $4 each (we both got 3 flavors and 1 topping).

    Mama Rosa's Ice is my favorite place to get minutas (snow cone). A minuta is basically a hispanic version of shaved ice. It has the shaved ice, whatever flavors you want, condensed milk, and tamarindo. It's so good especially on a really hot day like today. The food truck is located right off of rt 28 in the Mega Mart shopping center. I think this food truck is seasonal because I only really see it out during the summer, which makes sense since all they serve is the minutas. I've also seen other Mama Rosa's Ice trucks in Arlington, Alexandria, and Woodbridge so it's nice that they have other locations. Definitely recommend if you're in the area.

    All i'm going to say is I had the opportunity to try Ono Wai Shave Ice while I visited Leesburg, VA…read morea couple of weeks ago and I'm ready to go back just for this sweet treat. 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!

    From the owner: The product we offer is shave ice, which is a Hawaiian desert constructed by actually shaving a…read moreblock of ice into a fluffy texture. 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. The ice is then flavored with one of 25 syrups we offer. Some patrons opt to have ice cream placed in the bottom of their shave ice flower cup and top the flavored shavings with a sweet cream. Shave ice is a delicious, affordable treat! FYI....we operate a mobile unit. Follow us on Facebook, Twitter or Instagram to stay up-to-date on our vending location.
