Love a good shaved snow place. Black sesame was amazing.
Seating is hard though since it's always crowded.

Love this Korean style dessert, rounds out a good meal indeed! Fine, delicately shaved ice cream with fresh fruit, mochi, side of sweet milk to pour on top….. yum! Price is worth it, order small portion for one person. Enjoy! Oakabing

Oakobing is a must-try for dessert lovers! After seeing rave reviews across social media, we decided to check it out on a weeknight. It was quiet since we visited late, but that gave us the perfect chance to enjoy our dessert without the usual crowds. We ordered the green tea shaved ice with tiny mochis, and it was delicious. The texture reminded us of Taiwan night market treats, although this is a Korean dessert spot. The shaved ice was delicate and fluffy, offering a light, refreshing sweetness.

The place itself is small but has a bright, modern vibe, and the service was quick and friendly. There’s paid parking available on the side, which is convenient enough. Oakobing specializes in Korean-style shaved ice (bingsoo) with many flavors and milkshake options to choose from. The portions are just right for sharing, making it the perfect spot for a sweet indulgence with friends. If you’re looking for a unique dessert experience, Oakobing won’t disappoint!

First time trying it and it was really good and not crazy expensive! I got the tiramisu bingsu and on the opposite side of me, my cousin got the injeolmi. Service was fast, good quality for a good price!

Parking: I went on a Sunday so there was plenty of street parking, and 5 quarters gives you an hour.

I did really enjoy this, but it tasted a lot like everyday good ice cream. I was going for Korean shaved ice, and so was a tiny bit disappointed, like a teeny tiny bit! (I know this is shaved ice. It just seemed more like ice cream to me). It was still flavorful, huge portion, with a nice texture. I'd definitely go again. I know everywhere is packed in the area on the weekend, so there is no reason to complain about it, but just know it gets crowded and it's very small on the inside. You can go to the back of the building where there are a few picnic tables.

The desserts here are gigantic! Best come as a group or you won’t be able to finish. The greatest thing about Asian desserts are that they are not too sweet. This place presents its desserts exceptionally as well, it is like a work of art. Overall an amazing dessert spot to chill after a night out and enjoy some tasty treats.

What an absolute gem in the heart of Pasadena!I waked in and a very kind gentleman by the name on Jun helped me out. He walked me through their menu and helped me decide what to order. I went with their popular Mango Melon which is a Mango flavored shaved ice served on a whole melon bowl with fresh melon balls on top and a side of condensed milk. But I didn’t stop there (lol) I also had to try out Injeolmi which is a Milk flavored shaved ice with mochis, layers of Injeolmi (roasted soybean powder), sweet red beans on the side and a side of condensed milk. Both were ready in minutes by Jun and served. I enjoyed both of them by their cozy seating by the window. They were extremely flavorful, so satisfying and fluffy. I can’t wait to be back and try more flavors.
