    Mango and Matcha shaved ice
    Dannielle G.

    Mewame is a small shop nestled almost hidden away around the corner/in a shopping mall. The shaved ice was much creamier than anticipated but it was so flavorful. The matcha was a fan favorite among our group and almost had a chocolate flavor to it. Seating was casual and comfortable for a quick sweet treat. There is also structure for free parking attached to the building which was very convenient.

    Matcha and jasmine tea
    Tiffany M.

    So far only tried the matcha flavor but I loved it. Will definitely be back to try other flavors. Service was great! The girl at the front was friendly and our order was done quick. Really loved how the matcha was not very sweet which balanced out well with the sweet cream on top. This spot is small and cute, really enjoyed coming here with friends.

    Yummy dessert spot tucked away in a plaza between weho/hollywood. The flavors are delicate and subtly sweet. My friend and I tried the spring seasonal flavor Jasmine Green Tea Shaved Ice and Cashew Coconut. The texture is super fluffy and light, I haven't tried this style of dessert before! Parking is easy in the underground free lot, and the shop is beautiful and feels super new and clean. Our server was super helpful and patient too.

    Mango Passionfruit & Houjicha bingsoo
    Erin T.

    Tried out this bingsoo place when craving it, and was also intrigued that it was fully vegan. The interior of the space was super nice and cute. Very clean and modern. There's plenty of seating both inside and outside, making it a nice place to study, hang out, or catch up with friends. Service was friendly, and I thought it was nice that they brought the bingsoo directly to our table. Parking on a Thursday night wasn't too bad with street parking available, though I'm not sure if there are other better options. My friends and I tried the Mango Passionfruit and the Houjicha bingsoo. The shaved ice was really soft and delicious. Flavor-wise, they were decent, but the mango passionfruit was much more tart than I would have expected and preferred, and I found myself wishing the houjicha flavor was a bit stronger and bitmore pronounced. Overall, it's a pretty nice spot for a quick sweet treat. I'd come back to try other flavors if I happened to be in the area, but probably wouldn't go out of my way for it.

    Matcha shaved ice cream
    Sam R.

    I came here as a treat after having a scary medical exam done, and it was the perfect pick me up. Not as thick as gelato/ice cream but thicker than other shaved ice I've tried, it was a pretty unique textural dessert. They have lots of flavors but we tried strawberry (coconut based) and matcha (oat based). The strawberry one tasted like strawberry milk to me, a little more sweet and creamy than I'd expect, but the matcha one was soooo good. It tasted just like a matcha Einspänner, and I know I'll be craving this come summer. The service was also great - the attendant took his time explaining everything to us and was very intentional in the display of the dessert. Pro tip: just park in the Trader Joe's lot off pointsettia, it's free parking for an hour without any validation needed. I would definitely return for the matcha shaved ice alone!

    Update: Absolutely love the new spring flavor: Jasmine Green Tea Shaved Ice!! Felt as if I was sitting under a flower tree at a chill picnic hangout with friends. Came after lunch on Sunday around 2PM. I love how light & approachable this shaved ice is! You know when you /have to/ commit to eating dessert in LA.. there's plenty of dessert spots are either filling, food coma inducing, really sweet or quite large like they are making a big statement? Well this is one of those rare breed of where they do it quality, light & tasty shaved ice. This isn't your bingsoo or your halo halo kind of spot. The owner apparently upgraded his Hojicha drink and that's why it taste soooo much better than the basic Hojicha you taste at other places. This is that relaxed light dessert you CAN have after a medium to heavy meal. The staff here are nice, polite and do a quality job presenting these delights.

    Mango Passion Fruit (coconut base) Shaved Ice
    Tiffany P.

    Guilt-free desserts? Say less, I'm omw! I'm talking about a vegan, dairy-free, gluten-free, and artificial junk-free menu with zero compromise on flavor and quality. My Matcha Shaved Ice was fluffy and not-too-sweet, just the way I like it. The worker said the mango passion fruit and cashew coconut have been the top sellers, so I guess I'll have to come back to try those :) The simplicity and cleanliness of the shop gave us a refreshing break from the usual LA chaos. Swing by for a well-balanced and light snack!

    Mango Passion Fruit (top left), cashew coconut (bottom), and hongsi - persimmon (top right)
    Aiko K.

    I have yet to find a shaved ice place I like in LA. Our favorite was called Wicked Snow in Dallas, we absolutely don't understand the hype for Oakobing and was hoping Mewame would hit the spot but it didn't quite do it for us. - Mango Passion Fruit: it was just tart. Which the employee did let us know it was going to be tart but I couldn't really distinguish the flavors well. It was a bit more passion fruit-y than mango. It wasn't bad but most of us (me, my fiancé and 4 of our friends) eventually got tired of the flavor - Hongsi: I just... didn't get any flavor. I know even the persimmon fruit itself won't be sweet unless it's completely ripe but this one just didn't stand out at all - Cashew Coconut: surprisingly everyone's favorite. It was light, but creamy and actually tasted the coconut flavor. If we were to go back, we'd get this again Maybe we just need to try their other flavors but we're not rushing to go back unfortunately. There's metered street parking available and if you're going to the TJs in the same area, you should be able to get your parking validated. Service was nice thought! Would give this 3.5 starts and possible re-visit in the future

    Coconut cashew and matcha
    Eunice N.

    Saw an ad on Instagram and really wanted to try with my friends! The interior is super cute and parking on the street wasn't too bad. The workers were all very nice as well! I think, unfortunately, the flavors were just too light for my group and me. We got the matcha and coconut cashew at first. The matcha was subtle, but we couldn't taste the coconut cashew at all :( then we decided to try the seasonal persimmon and mango. The mango had more flavor which was nice, but persimmon was not living up to our expectations. But very good service and interior design (':

    Mango
    Courtney T.

    It's a cute little dessert place hidden next to the trader joes. My friend and I shared the mango option and the worker did mention that it was a tad bit sour. We found it to be ok, not bad but not something I would go out of my way for. Place had ample seating. Parking in the garage is free, which is a plus for weho.

    |[ l o v e l y ]| 4.5 stars only rounded down due to price vs quantity and customization. I LOVE clean ingredients, or effort towards healthier desserts without compromising quality or taste! Pricey but quality is there-- if they can make a completely sugarfree option it'd be perfect 5 stars for me! |[ w e t r i e d ]| Green tea oat base shaved ice 4.5/5: this was so good!! Better than I expected and not overly sweet yet delicious and fresh. I think what can make this even better for me is if they had hand made mochi in it or otherwise more toppings as the bowl overall is sparse for the high price point, but def amazing, can't wait to try the others! Hojicha block shake 4/5: I LOVE Hojicha so imagine my excitement when I saw this!!! Don't get me wrong this was delicious and so good!!! My only gripe was that it was too sweet for my taste buds (everything was basically perfect but they couldn't adjust the sweetness since the blocks are premade). If ever they make it sugar-free or at least only subtlety sweet (maybe one without the maple syrup or use monk fruit?) I will be ecstatic and this will be the best dessert of my year. |[ o v e r a l l ]| Cute lil shop, in a clean apt complex building and TJs. Parking was easy for us, will 100% return. Great service.

    Signature Matcha
    Janna C.

    This spot is a hidden gem tucked away, but definitely worth the visit! We shared the shaved matcha, but I recommend getting your own because it's so yummy and goes quickly! The service here is unmatched. The gentlemen behind the counter were very sweet and I can tell they prepare each order with good intention and take consideration into everything they do. The space inside was very clean and simple, with limited seating. Parking was a little tough but it is a nice side of town to walk through. I would 100% love to come back here again.

    Persimmon Kakigori (seasonal)
    Fortuna N.

    This was my first time trying Japanese Kakigori and the quality here is supreme! They use ice blocks that are flavored with the base you want that has a soft texture of snow. You can tell its quality since I got their seasonal hongsi (persimmon) shaved ice and you can taste the fruit in there that's sweetened the perfect amount. I love the bits of fruit chunks here and there. On top comes with a creamy, coconut haupia like cream where they provide a cookie on top. The coconut cream top goes sooo well with the persimmon ice and leaves your sweet tooth satisfied. Eating this is perfect for a light dessert, sweet craving, and you feel so refreshed after. I would say one Kakigori is perfect for one person since it's so light and refreshing! I def wouldn't want to share lol.

The place was somewhat small but wasn't really busy for a Saturday afternoon, and we noticed they had some spacious auxiliary seating areas specifically for Oakobing across the hall. At first glance, the prices seemed sort of high for shaved ice, so we opted for sharing 2 of the smallest personal sizes ($8.5 each). It turns out that this size was plenty. I'm not sure how big the regular bowls are, but I think especially after a meal the personal size is plenty for a satisfying dessert for 2 people. I'm assuming part of the large price difference in sizes comes down to the large amount of fresh fruit that comes on their regular bowls. Still, we very much enjoyed our bowls. The ice is shaved almost impossibly thin, and rather than melting into a pool of water almost turns into a sorbet/ice cream like texture, which is very satisfying to eat. I enjoyed how their condensed milk topping was diluted to form a lighter cream that was more sauce-like than think and drizzle-like. It all lended to making the dessert enjoyably light. I would definitely drop by again, especially if we could avoid the parking costs.

It did take around 10 minutes to arrive after we finished eating, but honestly it also made it feel like the dessert was being prepared fresh instead of sitting pre-made somewhere. Overall this is definitely more of a full dining experience than a quick ramen stop, so come prepared to spend some time here. Still, the food, desserts, and atmosphere make it worth visiting.
