    This spot has something for everyone in my family and friend group. Most of the ice cream flavors are lactose free - check, check; red bean taiyaki - check; ice cream with Asian flavors - check, check, check. The business is always clean and the service is friendly. there are no samples and you cannot get two flavors unless it is a part of their predetermined swirl. I don't know who decides, but I really don't want Thai tea with cookies and cream. Getting the fish shaped cone is a must! I say take a few taiyaki home for a crispy air fryer treat later in the day. The down side is the limited seating. Enjoy!

    Always a good idea to stop over and pick up a special Korean dessert known as "Ah-Boong", a fish-shaped waffle cone filled with your choice of soft serve and toppings. They really have a good selection to choose from. I got the strawberry soft serve, fruity pebble topping, and pastry filling with custard is a must. Came here with a few people, line was short and the young guy taking order was quick. The place is located at Shanghai Plaza. Parking is limited but, you can also park on the street near by. Inside they have a tier bench to sit on, it reminds me of the bleachers we had in high school lol. On the side of the entrance, there is a long standing table to eat as well.

    Stopped in for a late night treat after dinner and this place never disappoints. The cashier was nice and helpful when ordering. The soft serve is always spot on and the serving size is enough for 2 to share(glad I brought my boyfriend). The taiyaki is always delicious no matter what flavor you choose. There are some seating options but it is a smaller area to sit or stand. The flavors and swirls change every week and you can find that information on their instagram so always check before going if you're looking for a specific flavor. We will be back soon since I can't get enough of this place!

    Gotta stop here every time we're in Vegas!! Always crowded and worth the weight every single time. How many flavors that are lactose free. Is there lots of sunny souls and this one has an amazing atmosphere. Love the staircase sitting area. Not far from the Strip. Can't help the gift but it's delicious dessert!

    The best dessert in Spring Mountain, it taste amazing in the service is really good. It will be a little late in the line, but that's because it's so good but they get through the line really fast! Family and friend friendly there's a sitting area/ staircase !

    While I do have a list of dessert spots to try, rarely do I actually visit them. After a long walk around Chinatown though I decided to finally hit up Somisomi at the Shanghai Plaza. Upside Down Ahboong ($6.95): Went for the "popular" Ube & Thai Tea soft serve flavor and the cashier-recommended Matcha Custard filling. Quite a lot in the cup with more inside the gaping mouth of the amusing and crispy/cakelike fish cone. Yummy. Strawberry Matcha Milk ($5.95): Twelve cold ounces in a screw top, branded, glass milk bottle. Also delicious. Value: Ice cream fair for its volume and premium taste; milk price a bit hefty but the container did make an interesting souvenir. Atmosphere: A straightforward yet colorful box filled with light. Bleacher seating and a wall-mounted standing counter. Service: Very nice and prompt.

    Such a great first experience! The shop was so clean and spotless and the employee was very nice. The taro was delicious and we love the pins they have for sale!

    This was great! Last time I was in, it took a lonnng time but this time it went really fast and there was quite a few people there so really big and good improvement. Great soft serve and the little fish are delicious! There isn't a lot of sitting room inside though and parking can be rough so just make yourself aware :) really awesome though!

    This is my go to place when I want somthing hot fresh and not too sweet. I get mine plain sometimes The signature "Ah-Boong" (taiyaki with soft serve) is the main draw, The "upside down" option (ice cream in a cup with the fish on top) is a popular choice to avoid mess. This is what I usually get the upside down option. Sometimes I just crave the fish plain or with custard on the side no ice cream needed. They have many options on filings to choose from, such as (Nutella, custard, red bean, black sesame, cheese) and unlimited toppings fruity pebbles, Oreos crumbs are popular choices. This place gets busy so be ready to wait for your order as sometimes they are making them fresh. Give this place a try and happy eating....

    The dessert is definitely for mi, but the seating is so-so. Somisomi is a chain that offers taiyaki (fish-shaped waffles) and rotating flavors of soft serve ice cream. I enjoy their Henderson location quite a bit, but upon finishing lunch in this location's plaza and noticing that there's currently a matcha/strawberry swirl on the menu, I had to stop in for that specific blend. The Soft Serve In A Cup ($4.50 now) is the straightforward way to experience the soft serve. You can get toppings too, and I went with my semi-standard matcha powder and biscoff crumbles. I definitely got both the matcha and a strawberries-and-cream experience in most of the bites, so it was worth it for that alone. The complimentary strawberry was ripe and naturally sweet too though, and it added intensity and nuance in every little nibble which I was able to take of it. The issue I have with this specific store is that they apparently deemed it unnecessary to buy chairs even well after the pandemic had resolved. The only seating is stadium style, kinda like a lower-rent version of Gabi, and it's pretty easy to spill toppings or even melting ice cream onto yourself without a counter or table. I can have my counter with a seat at the Henderson location, so why not here? Somisomi is a great option overall for dessert, but this isn't the perfect place to have some.

    As busy and chaotic as the lines, friendly quick service. Good selection of toppings and fillings. The fish was slightly crunchy an warm. The strawberry ice cream reminded me of the strawberry Pocky sticks. Will have to come back and try their other flavors

    Upside Down Ahboong Taiyaki with Matcha Filling and Early Grey Soft Serve

    I had Somisomi once in LA many years ago and remembered it was good but at the time, they didn't ask or offer toppings like this visit in Vegas so it wasn't the most memorable back then. What got me really excited about this visit was seeing Earl Grey soft serve on the menu! I got the Upside Down Ahboong. I chose matcha for the filling this time which was alright, I think I prefer the custard. Of course Earl Grey for the soft serve. When they call your name, there's a variety of toppings you can add which is all included! Lastly, they ask if you want a fresh strawberry or macaroon to finish it all off. If you ever had the Earl Grey ice cream from Van Leeuwen, is very similar! Absolutely delicious, I'd come back just for the Earl Grey soft serve!

    Very poor customer service. This is "pistachio" . It tasted like just regular vanilla . I nicely asked to get a different flavor and they stated "well you are gonna pay for a new one"

Anytime I have friends or family visiting from out of town that are huge Matcha lovers I bring them here! They have plenty of seating, pretty nice size tables ranging from smaller squares, to larger circle tables to pretty good size community tables. Very clean, minimalistic, open space. It's a great place to hangout, it can get pretty busy sometimes. And that parking lot in general... sometimes I've gone there and had a hard time finding parking (I've actually left out of frustration before) it really just depends when you go. You do have a lot of really well-known local places in that shopping center that get incredibly busy especially late afternoon/early evenings on weekends from my experience. Haven't really had a problem when I've gone on a weekday. They have a really awesome menu! If you're not a Matcha person... but you're going with a matcha person.. they do have some coffee drinks as well! They have egg salad sandwiches and tuna sandwiches, and a few different desserts including layered crêpe cakes. My favorite thing to get there is their Matcha float latte, it's kind of the best of both worlds where you get your Matcha latte and a Matcha soft serve all in one! There are so many different combinations that you can get there of different types of green teas, either in tea form, latte, floats, parfait, and so many different flavors and toppings like they have their banana Matcha latte, which is really good!! They have quite a few flavors of soft serve (and don't worry for the ones that don't like Matcha, but are going with a Matcha person they have ones like black sesame, Ube, vanilla, etc. I miss their lychee flavor... I believe it was a limited time flavor, and I absolutely loved that soft serve... please bring it back!) and they're absolutely perfect, the texture and consistency of their soft serve is great. Tonight I got their Matcha and vanilla swirl soft serve on a waffle cone with chocolate syrup. (I had a birthday reward, They have a really awesome rewards program!) and it brought me joy in a way that I can't even put words and it was the perfect after dinner dessert and a great way to end the evening! It's an awesome place if in the middle of the day you need your Matcha fix, you need caffeine but you're not a coffee person. It's also really great place for a semi-late night (I believe they close at 10? so it's not like super late or anything, but still open until a pretty decent time) dessert and catch up with friends! Overall, a really great place and if love Matcha, you should really check this place out!

It was perfectly seasoned and not too salty like I've had elsewhere. As creamy as it was, it wasn't heavy. Ube cheesecake: This was delicious! Great ube flavor! The ube cheesecake was very smooth and creamy. There's a layer of ube cake on top of the cheesecake. So good! Butterfly latte: I paid extra for oat milk. What is butterfly anyway? It was pretty complex. It tasted like cotton candy and was slightly minty. I liked it. Yuzu omija: I think this was like a lemonade, or yuzumade. It was refreshing and also not overly sweet. I'm not usually a fan of yuzu, but this I can get behind.

It didn't taste artificial at all like at St**b**ks. I'm pretty sure they make the apple syrup in house. Perfectly spiced and comforting.

Strawberry Mille-Feuille: They make this fresh, so I had to wait about 5-10 minutes, but it was absolutely worth it. The pastry was beautifully crispy and the cream had the perfect texture with visible vanilla bean specks. I even found myself licking the paper it came on and didn't care who saw me because it was that good. Mushroom Crêpe: Yes, it's worth the hype.

The tiny mushrooms were adorable, and it comes served in a cute crêpe holder. Coconut Cake: The cake was incredibly soft and fluffy with custard cream layered in between. They didn't have individual slices, so I ordered the mini cake for $17. Yes, I ate the entire thing. Yes, it was delicious. Yes, I think I've had enough coconut cake now in one sitting to last a lifetime. Yuzu Panna Cotta: Very unique. I haven't seen this dessert anywhere else. The yuzu adds a bright tangy flavor that almost makes the panna cotta taste like a creamy citrus yogurt. I'm really glad I tried it. Matcha Latte: Strong, high-quality matcha. Sometimes matcha drinks at cafés taste watered down, but not here. It's topped with matcha foam and little matcha brownie bits, which makes it extra special. Strawberry Dessert: My kids loved this. Every bite was a surprise. My 9-year-old found beans in one bite and then a big strawberry hidden in the middle. It was fun watching them discover it.
