Can't come to SGV without a visit to Salju Desserts. Absolutely the best shaved snow around…read more They're a tiny place, but clean with two seating areas. You can order either at a kiosk or go the the counter to order there. They offer an extensive selection of snow flavors, syrups, and toppings. There's also a variety of other desserts and beverages, but I have never been able to resist the snow. Be aware that the small size is large enough for 2 or 3 people to share, and the medium is bigger still. On the several times I've been here, service has always been both cheerful and speedy. A real pleasure. I live quite a distance away, an hour or more depending on traffic, but plan to return many more times. It's that good.

I usually only write reviews if I think the place deserves 5 stars, but now I will start reviewing…read moreeven when I think the place deserves lower ratings to help out the community of eaters pick the right choice! My friends and I chose Salju Dessert for some nice dessert because the ratings of this location seemed pretty good, but sadly we were disappointed. We chose the milk flavor and pandan. The milk flavor wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special. The pandan on the other hand was very bitter... We thought it may have been the toppings but figured out it was the pandan flavor. My friend described it as a medicine bitter taste, which I could agree on. We made a complaint and the employees happily switched it out for us for another milk flavor (maybe we should've chosen another flavor to try.) Toppings... the toppings were extremely expensive for such a small portion. It was around like $1.49 per topping??? Which is honestly pretty crazy. The toppings are set on the side in those small plastic ketchup containers. 4 Oreo cookies for $1.49, 2-3 buttercups smashed into pieces for $1.49, 1.5 strawberry sliced for $1.49, 1/8 of a banana sliced for $1.49... a container of chocolate syrup $1.49 you can imagine the rest that we added. Those portion sizes and prices are messed up lol The total was $35+ for 2 smalls with additional toppings. Overall, I don't think we will be coming back here for the shaved ice. There's definitely better options out there. The place was pretty busy too, maybe there's other items on the menu worth trying or they got bamboozled by the ratings... but in this economy, the presentation, taste, and price was not worth it and we wish we spent our money elsewhere. I usually take photos to share to friends on snap/ social media, but it was so disappointing I didn't even take any pics to show y'all. Very mid tier. Thank you to the staff who replaced our pandan though!

Their products are imported from Uji Japan! You can definitely taste it, it's not your typical LA Matcha place that's too water down and bland. This is definitely legit matcha! My go to is the matcha shaved ice and Maiko special with UBE and matcha combo is sooo sooo good! I tried the Hojicha Matcha Latte Float OMG!!! to die for! I love Hojicha with matcha ice cream the Best! The hojicha by itself is strong and I love it! Definitely bang for your back the portion is really huge and good for sharing. The location is cute, simple and has seating options. It's inside the plaza so there's free parking. The service is fast and friendly, they do get pretty busy and I love how the quality of the matcha/ teas stays the same. I've been to their Rowland heights location. Glad I found out that they also have 626 location in Monterey park! This is definitely my go to matcha place.

Honestly, I was pretty disappointed with this visit. We paid $21 for two very basic shaved ice…read moredesserts, and I just didn't feel like the taste or portion justified the price. We got one Matcha + Vanilla and one Ube + Vanilla. They were both pretty underwhelming, and the shaved ice itself was very crunchy rather than that soft, fluffy texture I was expecting. The toppings were also pretty minimal basically a little red bean and one small rice ball. Another weird thing is that there aren't really menus available at the tables. You have to walk up front to see the menu, and it's pretty small on the board. We also asked for an extra bowl so we could split the shaved ice and were given a tiny cup instead and they were rude about it. The tables were also pretty sticky and could have used a quick clean. There were several employees behind the counter, so I was surprised the tables weren't being cleaned as people left. Overall, I just didn't think the desserts were worth the price and I wouldn't come back.

I am giving this ice cream parlor four stars because the inside seating wasn't accessible, only outside seating. It was very cold and windy to where we decided to get back in our car to finish our ice cream then leave. So not ideal when you come with two small children towards the evening/night. But overall I would like to come back in the summer, I know we would enjoy the outdoor seating.

I've been coming here regularly and have tried so many things on their menu, and I honestly haven't been disappointed once.

The young coconut filled with delicious coconut jelly is another must try! They're open 7 days a week from 3 pm - 11 pm and weekends from 1 - 11 pm which makes it the perfect after dinner or late night dessert stop.
