Mango Bingsoo
Meli D.

I love that they actually used fresh cut mango here instead of frozen mango chunks. It was also the perfect amount of sweetness

Marie S.

Such a refreshing and satisfying sweet treat! The strawberries on top were plentiful and so visually appealing. The smaller size is good for 2 to share and a good price when you consider this is really shaved milk, not ice. San Ramon is lucky to have this place!

Marie E.

Very yummy. The mangoes were sweet and everything was delicious. I just wish they had a smaller size than the regular.

Dubai Chewy Cookie
Malia S.

As much as I'd love to travel the world in search of authentic Korean bingsoo and spiritually get closer to BTS, TikTok distracted me with something else: the viral Dubai Chewy Cookie. The moment I saw it, I became completely determined to find one. I spent an embarrassing amount of time digging through Yelp, Google, and TikTok trying to track down where I could get my paws on this dessert. To my surprise, Snow Bowl was hiding the treasure. I ordered two for delivery, and from the first bite, I understood the hype. The marshmallow center was so gooey that I immediately lost all composure, but that was part of the experience. These were the closest thing to the authentic version I could find nearby. What set them apart is that some other places make theirs with a mochiko coating, while Snow Bowl's version had the marshmallow element I was actually looking for. The end result was everything I wanted: gooey, crunchy, rich, and sweet. Best of all, both of my parents liked them too, which officially confirmed that this was not just another one of my random TikTok dessert obsessions. Snow Bowl absolutely delivered on the viral dessert moment, and yes--I'd order them again. Send the next one over.

Injeolmi Bingsoo
Akiko N.

FOOD: Fine, standard bingsoo so pretty good. Wish there were more items along with the bingsoo so it wasn't just shaved snow. I've had better bingsoo elsewhere such as Sul&Beans though. SERVICE: Self serve style with some tables. AMBIANCE: Just your typical San Ramon self serve place, no frills, thought it was just okay. Overall pretty good. You can split this with a couple of people (typically what you do) and pour the condensed milk over, honestly just typical bingsoo! Nothing too crazy here.

Mango Bingsoo
Brian V.

4++ Dessert cafe located in a busy strip mall that specializes in bingsoo or Korean style shave ice. The prices are reasonable and they pack in the toppings, using a lot of fresh fruit among other ingredients. I think this may be my first time ever going to a bingsoo spot, so when ordering I wanted to stick to a classic or at least what's popular. The service style is that you order from a screen where you get to customize your bowl and there are a few people there to help if needed. I got the mango bingsoo. Simple with just one fruit, although some of the other creations with lots more ingredients looked really good. The fruit was fresh and the bowl was pretty large. Just a great treat. I got to have a bite of some bingsoo topped with strawberries as well. Next time, I may opt to try and get one of the more wild creations (with lots of different toppings). Parking here is really easy as there is a really large parking lot at this shopping center.

Matcha, mango, and Injeolmi (soybean - traditional) bingsoo

The Bingssoi are fresh and good. Highly recommended if you want a nice Asian dessert. They make it fresh to order so it always taste good.

I'm not much a fan of desserts and hate paying $$$ for mediocre desserts at places such as "Meet Fresh". I'm so glad we found SNOW BOWL in San Ramon!!! Yes, although you'll pay around $20 for a bowl of dessert - it's large and you can really share between 2 people. Snow Bowl's Bingsoo dessert (Bingsoo is a classic Korean dessert... it's finely shaved ice made from milk or sweetened condensed milk, so it's creamy rather than icy) is SO GOOD!! Their fresh fruit ingredients are fresh and their red beans are cooked just right. Their mochi has the perfect texture and is a must have, by the way. This Snow Bowl is very much a self service spot. (1) Walk in, (2) Order your dessert from the kiosk, (3) find your own table, (4) Clean it yourself if necessary, (4) Then they'll call a number and you pick up your tray(s) of dessert, (5) Bring it back to your table and enjoy!! .... and don't forget to (6) Bus your own table afterwards. Though not much of a service spot, I am game as the food comes first. And they have excellent desserts here!

Mango Bingsoo*~
Garick C.

So much better than sno-cones! This is ice cream frozen into a solid block and then shaved off to give you pillows bites as light and fluffy as a cloud. Mango bingsoo ftw.

Original Red Bean Bingsoo
Ed Y.

I've been going to Snow Bowl when it was MandRo Teahouse and when it was only one store in Fremont so when my friends invited us for shaved ice I was pleasantly surprised it's a new branch in the Tri Valley area. Nothing more to talk about as it's my favorite place for shaved ice whenever I have a chance in the East Bay. They changed their name which is smart because it's the shaved ice that sets them apart not the tea. Even though it's using Bingsoo (which is Korean shaved ice) I'm fairly certain it's actually Chinese but who cares when it tastes good. The plaza is big but it's right next to the McDonald's if you have a hard time finding it. Seating is somewhat limited and I think for shaved ice it's better to eat there rather than taking it to go. Service is good enough even if it's usually just one person. Tip is optional which is good. You order through a kiosk. My favorite is the matcha or the original milk but mango is popular among kids.

Chocolate Bingsoo
Brenna T.

Really can't recommend this place enough, the kids have been begging to go here so we decided to finally make the stop and we were not disappointed. When we walked into the restaurant there is a kiosk to order from, we ordered the strawberry bingsoo and the chocolate. They were both absolutely delicious! Not over powering sweetness, but just right! We ordered the regular size and even sharing we couldn't finish it was so much! Service was great they were quick to make our order and bring it out. The establishment is on the smaller side and pretty quiet, it's a great spot to stop and have a nice cold treat! We plan on visiting again to try some of their drinks!

Mango
Maria R.

I love going here with my friend. I think we have gone at least 10 times now in one month. The food is delicious. The service is awesome. Ambiance is also great! Love their mango flavor!!

Snow Bowl Red Bean Smoothie
Sonia W.

Came on a Saturday night. Arrived at around 8:30pm, with a lot of people already. My friend was here before me and she was able to get a table. Ordered both mango bingsoo and matcha red bean bingsoo plus a red bean smoothie. Order experience was good, food came out fast. It is a good hang out spot in a hot summer night

Located in the Ross shopping center across the street from the outlets. I had read that it takes time for the employees to complete your order so we were prepared for the wait. There were three families ahead of us and I was pleasantly surprised that it only took 9 minutes for us to get to the front of the line to order. Not bad at all! You can choose up to three flavors for your shaved ice. We ordered: - "Pick-Me-Up" with snow cap and coconut ice cream - green tea, coffee, and coconut flavors - Mango, red raspberry, and coconut flavors Their menu takes you through the five steps of placing your order so for a first time visitor, the process is easy. They also have favorite combos listed that you can choose. We waited for our order to be completed and then we went outside to sit at a table under the tent. They poke holes in the shaved ice for more flavor all the way through. Our shaved ice was refreshing and my husband loved his Pick-Me-Up, especially the coconut ice cream. Music is playing outside and it was quite pleasant under the tent in the shade. To move the line along faster, they have menus available outside. This is definitely a popular spot. All the tables inside were occupied so the extra seating outside really helps. Plenty of parking in the huge lot.

Amazing fluffy ice with powerful and amazing flavors that don't taste fake artificial even though they are basically syrup LOL. The mango and coconut and passionfruit that I got was amazing. The sparkling soda was also good. I kept getting mango or passionfruit because it was just such a good combination. My friends love it here. One got her Lucky Charm ice which had ube ice cream and what tasted like cotton candy ice. Not my thing, but she liked it. My other friend got their tropical flavor with cream. Be prepared for the long lines, but as they say, it's worth it.

The ice was perfectly shaved and there were no hard chunks through the shaved ice. It was super flavorful and their be buttah cakes were so delicious.

The Yelp information doesn't reflect that the location that's listed ( 27812 Loyola Ave, Hayward…read more ) is not where the actual shave ice is sold at. This address is a residential house. The restaurant or food truck or business is not at that location selling anything. That would have been nice to know ahead of time. As for the hours that Yelp lists (12:30am to 5:30pm) , we were at that location (27812 Loyola Ave) at that time (2:30pm) on Sunday 11/12/2023, and there wasn't a anything there that was selling shave ice. My guess is a food truck is only for special events at an arranged place that are planned ahead of time. I see that this business has been "claimed" on Yelp and "Verified by business owner over 3 months ago", so it would have been best if the owner updated the company's information on Yelp to explain where exactly this business/restaurant/food truck is located or if it's for special events only. It does say "Shaved Ice, Food Truck" but I thought that meant it also had a food truck in addition to a physical location/restaurant ( 27812 Loyola Ave). I give 4 stars because detailed information is missing and should be added by the business owner.

It's nice to have a go-to Poke place like Oke Poke!

The seating area and food preparation areas are nice and clean, location pleasant in a not-too-busy-but-accessible part of downtown Walnut Creek, and of course the poke itself is very tasty too. I like how ordering on the app for pickup is a streamlined and simple process (for group orders too!) There's create your own poke, sushi burritos, or nachoes or you can go with a recommended preset. Avocado is not extra!! And there are lots of unique options from rice noodle base to crawfish as a choice of protein. ~$20 for a large bowl with 5 scoops of protein is a good price to me. Looking forward to lots more poke as the weather warms up this summer!
