Shaved Ice Restaurants near Whittier, CA

“The best place ever!!!! Extremely clean, very friendly staff and excellent customer service. It is a good thing I do not ever make someone else's unfortunate experiences my own. Had I believed the first posted comment for this place, I would had missed the best sandwich and natural fruit juice I had ever had. I would recommend Ms. Lucy Rivera to give this place a second chance now that it is being managed by the new owners. I am positively sure she would want to get rid of the negative comment she made on this place and would want to recommend it to all her friends and family. Give it a try, you are going to love it!! After all, we all deserve second chances, wouldn't you agree!“

“wonderful drinks and great service!!“

“Not sure why it took me so long to write a review for this spot. But I’ve been coming here for a few years now, and I gotta say. I’ve tried açaí bowls from plenty of other spots, but this has been my #1 for a while. They are delicious and reasonably priced. Staff is great too and I like ordering makes it easy to get.“

“mac salad! nice n firm, but not too hard w pieces of potatoes“

“Always good treats on warm days. You can never go wrong.“

“Soooo delicious!! Ordered to-go & took us a little over 20mins to get home & surprisingly my Shaved Iced dessert was still frozen! Very satisfied with how everything tasted. I ordered the Green Tea Snow with Oreos, Strawberries & Popping Boba combination. I loved it. I also ordered the Pistachio & Matcha Green Tea Macarons & the Milk Tea. The Pistachio Macarons & Milk Tea was delicious. Definitely recommend. (Didn’t get to try Jesse’s Breakfast)“

“Halo halo that we order👍😋“

“El mejor lugar sin dura alguna.. me siento como en familia cuando voy.. los precios son excelentes y muy buen sabor. Los mejores en la área“

“I went in for the first time yesterday, and the only thing I’m not happy about is that this spot is too far from home. The service was 10/10, everyone there was extremely kind and friendly.

The donuts were all very good, I took 2 boxes to two different clients and both were gone in under five minutes. The apple fritter was my standout favorite. Definitely will be back when I’m over this way again.

Support shops like this, they deserve all the business“

“I love the Bingsoo here, the portion for the price is great. The service is also great! The owner is very attentive.
A regular size is good for two people. There's plenty of tables, although they're shared with the other restaurant in the dining area. It's located inside the grocery store.“

“The raspados are delicious here. My family and I we've been clients with them sonce the raspados were at Baldwin Park. Service is always great and the staff are very friendly. The bionicos are good too. I recommend you visiting here to get your raspados. Support small businesses.“

“Salju Dessert has the BEST shaved snow I’ve ever had!
I tried the matcha, chocolate, and durian flavors and they were all absolutely delicious. The texture of the snow ice was so light and fluffy, it literally melted in my mouth.

The matcha had a rich, earthy flavor that wasn’t too bitter, the chocolate was creamy and indulgent, and

The staff were super friendly, and the atmosphere was cozy and clean. I’ll definitely be coming back for more. Highly recommended!“

“Italian ice was colorful and refreshing with just the right amount of soft serve to ice ratio. Just when I was running out of soft serve I found more at the bottom lolSundae was perfect amount of chocolate and whipped cream. Banana milkshake has fresh bananas combined with thick, creamy ice cream. Overall, a delight!“

“This is the best place ever! Their quality is so good!!! My favorite is the coffee especially with the foam and different options for foams! It tastes so good and is the perfect consistency! Whatever you’re looking for in boba they have it!“

“Riquísimos rapados los mejores !!!! Son nuestros favoritos mmm“

“Honestly, I couldn’t really say much about the atmosphere yet, I have never been inside the store. My orders were via delivery but from experience it’s the best, excellent and tasty Taro boba drink I’ve ever had. It’s so hard to a very good Taro drink these days using fresh Taro, I love ❤️❤️❤️ House Taro Yuan the best!! Please keep up the great work and never change your ingredients, you are the best and my favorite of all!! I’ll be sure to stop by and experience the taste of the atmosphere being inside your store!!“

“Sobok Sobok is a charming Korean-owned bakery and ice cream shop with a modern yet cozy atmosphere. Though the space is small, its simple design and warm ambiance create a relaxing vibe.

Breakfast Experience

I visited in the morning for breakfast and was pleasantly surprised. Their Croissant Sandwich was a great choice—crispy on the outside and filled with ham, cheese, egg, and lettuce, making for a satisfying and protein-rich meal.

For my drink, I tried the Black Sesame Latte, but it was a bit disappointing. The sesame powder didn’t dissolve well into the hot milk, and no one informed me that it needed stirring, which affected the overall taste.

Environment & Amenities

There are plenty of seats, but a few downsides for those looking to work or study here:

No power sockets, which makes it inconvenient for long stays.

No WiFi, so it’s not the best place for remote work or studying.

Not dog-friendly—only service dogs are allowed, so pet owners should take note.

Final Thoughts

Sobok Sobok has potential, and with a few small improvements, it could be a fantastic go-to spot for both breakfast and dessert lovers.

While my breakfast experience was mostly enjoyable, I’d love to return to try their shaved ice and ice cream next time, as those seem to be their specialties.“

“awesome and yummy better then any“

“Above my expectations matcha flavor is amazing and just how I like it 👍🏻“

“First time trying Sul & Beans today with hubby and daughter. I've had shaved ice plenty of times before, but I'd never had it Korean-style! We are definitely coming back because there are so many flavors to try! Service was super quick, and everything was delicious! Big thumbs up!“

“The Acai bowl was so amazing it's so freshing and the service was good Vanessa that works there was very helpful for my first time definitely going back 😃“

“Ricos Bionicos, Jugos, nieve, flan, taquitos, nachos, tortas, Cafe de Olla, y mas!

This small, family-oriented Juice bar is located on Arrow Hwy & Hollenbeck Ave. by Vicky's Barbershop with a small private parking lot.
Their menu consists of so many yummy treats such as 'Ice cream, Raspados (shaved ice), Bionicos (Fruit salad), shakes, smoothies, iced coffee, fresh juices, and even food such as hotdogs, sandwiches, salads, tortas, taquitos', etc.
I tried their 'Strawberry smoothie' and a 'Bionico', which is a fruit salad with sweet cream and toppings over it. I liked that the cream was not too sweet. The fruit was fresh and everything tasted great, ideal for this hot weather.
They also have 'Fruit Party Trays' which are perfect for a potluck or simply a gathering.
Service was amazing, very friendly, and welcoming.
Overall, I had a good experience here and will definitely return to try other goodies.“

“5 for delicious. They need to expand to a bigger location.. So its like4.5“

“Thanks you for taking the time to double back for my kiddos!! Always great service!“

“A little pricey for a raspado, but I don't mind it when I'm really craving one. Some may say some of their flavors are too sweet but I really like the coco, cajeta (usually mix a different flavor with this one as it's the sweetest in my opinion but still good), limon and most of all the nuez ?.“

“Enjoyed the mango, green tea and coffee bingsoo and fish-shaped pastry!! Would go back to try the other flavors!“

“If you haven’t tried Taiwanese popcorn chicken before, this is the perfect place to start. Their popcorn chicken is authentic, with a crispy, golden exterior and a juicy, flavorful interior that won’t disappoint. There are also some simple tables and chairs set up inside, providing a space to enjoy your meal. The shop is located inside Secoya Market and sells traditional Taiwanese street food. They also offer Japanese sushi but I haven't had the chance to try it.

Parking: There is plenty of parking outside the Secoya Market.“

“Excellent customer service has a variety of options to be honest I was skeptical at first but once I came in I realized it was super clean and they were really nice to me and they have options that a lot of stores around here don't have for example I was looking for one of those fruit stand guys and I didn't find any today because the last time I went to one this guy had no mask I don't think he washed his hands it looks really non-hygienic and it was kind of expensive here it was cheaper than that guy and they were very hygienic and it was such a nice story to come to I would recommend it to everybody around here“

“This has quickly become one of my go-to spots for a raspado after church or whenever I'm out and about. I'm happy to see it gaining the recognition it deserves, thanks to its friendly staff, authentic traditional Hispanic flavors, and delicious snacks like elote. Even when there’s a bit of a wait, the quality and flavor make it more than worth it every time. 😌☝️“

“Cocohodo holds a special place as one of our family's favorite snack spots. Today, we swung by to pick up a Cocohodo box to gift to a friend. Opting for a small box with 36 pieces for the gift and a smaller bag of 10 pieces for ourselves, we patiently waited about 15 minutes for our warm, freshly cooked Cocohodo. The place was bustling with activity as we waited, and we also noticed they offer a variety of beverages for purchase.

Parking: Plenary of parking space

Kid-friendliness: Kids love this place for snacking.“

“This is my go to Boba spot. Drinks are always on point and taste great. It does get a little packed but just be patient the staff is constantly moving and getting orders out. There's plenty of seats inside and out so if you're waiting you don't have to stand the whole time. Definitely recommend this spot. Use the Kiosk on the side to order usually goes by faster that way.“

“Our first time to try this place. We loved it, really good and reasonably priced!“

“I enjoy fish cake with decaf after dinner at Bobaya. Love it !“

“Love this boba place! They have good options and the drinks are consistently good! I think the management has recently changed because they’re more attentive and the service feels faster and friendlier. You can tell they’ve put effort into keeping the place clean and running smoothly. Definitely a great spot to keep coming back to!“

“Me encanta el yogur natural y mango“

“Love the macchiato and pistachio frappes 😋 they are definitely a must have on a warm day. I would recommend this place to everyone. I seriously always stop by even on rainy days out, since everyone that attends you, is always so nice and welcoming and the place is always fresh and clean ☺️.“

“I came in on 12/27 around 2pm and there were 2 guys working ( Anthony and someone else I didn't catch his name tag)They were dealing with a crazy customer who was yelling at them, talking down at them over a small upcharge they didn't want to pay for. They took care of the rest of us in line while still handling her which I really appreciate. They didn't deserve that treatment and still kept a smile on their face. They kept a good attitude despite someone being rude and entitled!“
