The shaved ice is the perfect consistency, they top off your syrup if needed, and you can pick an ice cream inside. What's not to love? Plus, the employees are so sweet and helpful.

The worker said he stayed up all night playing deadlocked with his boys lol but he still did a good job making the shaved ice. As for the ambiance, it's an outdoor truck where you order from a building. It was nice. If you're looking for a restaurant that has good desserts than this is the place. Update: I forgot to say that parking can be tricky sometimes. We had pretty easy parking but when we came back it wasn't so easy. It depends on what time of day you go.

If you haven't been to Casey's New Orleans Snowballs, you're missing out on one of the most…read moredelicious ways to beat the Texas heat! They serve NOLA-style snowballs with powder soft ice and offer a ton of flavors. Sugar-free? 100% juice? Creamy and decadent? They seem tone something for every palate. My personal favorite is mango syrup with chamoy and tajín . The staff is super friendly and helpful, even when the line gets long (which is often), it moves quickly. Use your time in line to browse the menu and check out what others are ordering, you might get inspired and it helps the line move faster if you know your order when you approach the window. Insider tips:    *   Parking can be tricky, so bring your patience and /or a bike .    *   No seating, but you can enjoy your treat in your car or on the steps. You can enjoy your treat at home if you have the willpower. (I don't )    *   If your server is Deaf or hard of hearing, don't stress, just write your order down and learn the sign for "Thank you" (it's a small act of kindness that makes a difference).    *   Follow them on social media to stay up to date on hours, seasonal changes, and more. Casey's is one of my favorite places for a cold treat in Austin.

This place is so cute! Firstly the location is a little tricky since it is a truck and it is parked…read moreoutside a shop with a very small amount of parking. The other minor inconvenience is that there is an extremely limited amount of seating, when we went it was 4 of us and we all had to enjoy our shave ice standing, which was not terrible but be prepared for that or in your car. Now, on to the ice! We liked it! Please note this is not shaved iced but Hawaiian style shave ice, the ice is much softer and they use house made syrups which were not too sweet and tasted lovely. I do think it was a bit pricey but the portion is very large!

The ice is super fluffy and light, not thick or crunchy, which makes a big difference. Parking is decent, but there's no real seating, so we had to stand and enjoy it due to the limited space. It's in a nice quiet area with a couple of shops nearby. The wait wasn't too long for it either! Overall, it was a solid experience and worth trying, though it's a bit far from where I'm usually at, so I probably won't go often.

I haven't had snow ice in a while and their menu's range of options was pretty average: mostly fruit options, a couple of easy like Blizzard style toppings and injeolmi which was interesting but not enough for me to choose it. I went pretty basic with their strawberry one and I have to say it was solid: the snow ice was milky but light and not overly sweet. The strawberries looked fresh and not drowned in syrup and despite our semi-largeish group the folks behind the counter were patient in letting us decide what we wanted.

Good as always.

I was PLEASANTLY surprised by the texture! It was smooth and melted in your mouth- not just the way ice does but in such a soft and interesting way. It was not a crunchy snow cone but like eating real snow. We absolutely loved that! I did like the idea of the snow coming in a carton rather than a cup but it did make eating a bit messy. I'd do it again though! Aside from the delicious texture of the sno, I really loved the thermal spoons! Color changing spoons are a cool addition to a treat- I hope they never get rid of them! The woman working was very kind and quick with service. There were quite a lot of bees circling in and around the sno cart but given the sugary syrup it's understandable. I do think there may be a hive very close nearby. Sno Ride has been our favors snow cones experience so far and I can't wait to go back! The flavors we chose were delicious and they weren't even our first choice so we will definitely be back to try some more! I might even add some glitter and sour spray too.
