    Strawberry
    Chantal T.

    Nice shaved ice place! Got a small strawberry for two people. Would definitely recommend the regular size for sharing instead. Fruit tastes really fresh though and shaved ice is flavorful. Lots of seating inside with only one other group ahead of us on a Sunday as they opened. But service took a while since I think there was only one person.

    The service was really nice, the snowy was really good but if you don't like too much sugar you would like to share with someone else or I highly recommend to order with light condensed milk. The food was really good tho! Ambiance really cute!!

    I've tried three different bingsoos in the two times I've been here, and all were delicious. I've never been to a shaved ice place where the ice had a creamy / milky base to it, and I don't think I can ever go back. It made the bingsoo so much more enjoyable! The portion sizes were also huge, so it may seem pricey at first but you can definitely split with your group. The regular size was enough for three of us! The space itself was also clean and spacious. You don't get too much interactions with staff, as ordering is through a kiosk. There's also a self-serve water station. So far, this is my favorite dessert place on the Ave! Would highly recommend for when you're craving a sweet, refreshing treat!

    The quality, presentation, and taste of the bingsu were all top-notch! The watermelon bingsu was piled high with juicy, sweet melon balls--so refreshing. The strawberry bingsu came with a generous swirl of whipped cream on top, and the sweetness was just perfect. The taiyaki had a crispy outside and a soft inside, filled generously with sweet red bean paste--such a perfect way to end the dessert round. Snowy Village The shop isn't huge, but it's always bustling with customers, giving it such a lively vibe. If you're looking for something sweet, cold, and absolutely satisfying, I highly recommend it!

    Cute Asian dessert spot in U District, known for their bingsu. Ordered a "lite" mango bingsu, which was the smallest size and pretty pricey, at $11. The presentation was so great, and it was a decent amount of dessert. It didn't knock my socks off, but was tasty. Would go back if I was in the area.

    Love how milky and soft the bingsoo is! This place is still one of my fav dessert places in the area.

    TLDR: Flavors are TO DIE FOR. Only reason for 4/5 is because it's quite expensive. So it's a place I'd only go every one in a while to treat myself. Everything on the menu is a work of art so it takes about 10 minutes to get your order, longer if they're busy. Once you get it though, it makes sense ! The shaved ice looks so delicately balanced. Personal favorite is the pesto taiyaki; the pizza one is a close second. Seasonal mango shaved ice is the best, but is only available until August. Get it while you can! There is lots of seating and they play RnB music. Must bus your own table. Free water provided !

    We went on a rainy Saturday night and had a delightful time! The space is airy and vibrant, and the food was fun and delicious. The shaved ice is made with milk, but they have an oat option for those of us with lactose challenges. My husband and I each got a "lite" size, and it was a perfectly fine amount of dessert. I'm looking forward to going back and trying other flavors and items!

    Get the default size. The regular is a lot of food! My friend got the mango and I got the black sesame with condensed milk. It was all good.

    Croissant Taiyaki
    Stephanie M.

    Maybe I tried the wrong meny item but I was extremely unimpressed with the croissant taiyaki. Outter dough was crispy and tasted burnt. The croissant dough was not very flakey and the butter in the dough overwhelmed the dish. We tried three fillings. You could barely Red bean was barely because the dough was too buttery. The nutella filling basically just tasted like nutella on much too toaster store bought croissants dough. It lacked a creaminess or robust flavor. The custard filling was a plain vanilla but the custard had solidified into a thick gloopy filling. It was not a rich creamy custard filling you might expect. Over all food was not impressive but would give them another chance to try the Bingsoo. Ambiance was super adorable and service was prompt/nice

    Supposed to be the mango bingsoo

    They aren't serving the quality and quantity that made me love going there. Even the to-go orders used to look like the yummy online pics, but no longer.

    Regular mango bingsu
    Melissa N.

    Came in about an hour before they closed on Friday. We had a large party but we were able to grab a table as another large party was leaving. The bingsu came out relatively fast and it was larger than I expected. However, my husband and I still managed to eat all of it. It was tasty and pretty much what I would expect it to taste like. The thing that stood out was that the taiyaki was excellent! It's not your typical one where it's bready. The outside texture was more croissant like (which they did describe) but it was just so delicious! My husband ordered the pepperoni pizza one and it hit the spot. I'd definitely come back just for the taiyaki. We had also stayed a little past 10:45 (sorry!) and they didn't even say anything to kick us out. So nice! We just noticed the time and hurried out.

    Been coming here for years and this place never disappoints every time I have a sweet carving. The shavings are so fine and just melts in your mouth perfectly. Minimal clumps and the snow is perfectly sweet and not overpowering. Love trying out the different flavors they have and I recommend the mango (seasonal) and the injeolmi ( soy bean powder)

The mixed berry bingsu was my fave! The berries were fresh but the best part was the ice cream! Super flavorful and I loved the fruit syrup too. For both, the bingsu itself is very light in flavor and texture. It melts in your mouth and pairs well with the toppings, especially that sweetened condensed milk. I hope to come back to try other items soon!!

The soup was really amazing. I don't often like tomato soup but this was the exception. Chunks of tomato and a full flavor without a lot of spices. The crème brûlée was warmed and freshly caramelized on top. This is not made in advance and just refrigerated which seems to be more common these days. The hot chocolate hit the spot! Options for no -dairy alternatives were offered which I almost forgot to ask. Liked the atmosphere, spacious and high ceilings. The staff was very friendly and nice. They had a rush when they opened and didn't seem unusual for them. The candied orange was a nice touch.

We'd grabbed dinner in Capitol Hill, but wanted to find dessert to take back to the hotel room. Initially resigned to simply stopping in an AM/PM, I did a quick Yelp search and found this amazing place. Open late on the weekends, R&M Dessert Bar has an extensive list of really delicious desserts and pastries to choose from. My friends and I ordered a wide selection of desserts to take back to our room, and I didn't expect the classy presentation for a take out order. Each dessert was elegantly packaged in glossy boxes with gold thread, then placed into a sturdy gift bag with a handle. Love is in the details at this place, my friends. Even though it was quite late when we got around to enjoying our treats, everything tasted fresh and delicious. The flourless chocolate cake was one of the best I've ever had, and the lemon tart was very memorable as well. It was buttery, sweet, tart, and oh, so yummy.
