From the outside and the pictures, you would think this restaurant was focused on their desserts and their food was an afterthought; but its not the case. Their rice clay pot is one of the best. You will have to wait about 25 minutes though because its authentic. Unlike other places that put rice in a clay pot and heat it for a few minutes, here they actually take the time to make it right.Their appetizer of chicken wings and french fries was nothing out of the ordinary but good if you want a light snack while waiting for your clay pot rice As for their dessert, we tried their banana and Nutella crepe. Its a nice big piece with plenty of bananas and drizzle with a good amount of Nutella. For their shaved ice, we tried their small mango flavored and here I have mixed results. First, their shaved ice didnt taste like an Icee with mango flavor, nor do you get that ice feel. It was more of a fondue and was very smooth and tasty. In fact, it the texture felt more like ice cream. But their mango and sago was disappointing. I was hoping for more mango and sago and from the picture you can see how much of each you get. I wouldve prefer a more balance of quantity because even the small comes in a pretty big bowl.

Great food, good portion, a little tight on space. This is definitely not a family oriented restaurant. Its more of snack shop, serving crepes (both sweet and salty), snowflake shave iced, fried food (fries, chicken wings), and some selection of milk tea. They do however have rice plates and noodles on their menu with basic sauce (white cream sauce, tomato based sauce). The item I like on the menu is the shaved ice. Milky shaved ice that is. Very flavorful, not like the American kind (frozen water), with flavor infused into the ice and smooth silky texture. I really dont know how they freeze the block of ice and then shave it with a machine to create the silky texture. Then they top of the shave ice with various toppings like red bean, different kinds of boba, jelly, and of course sweet condensed milk. Must have one everytime I visit.

Full from dinner? Yup. But they had snow ice, so fullness be damned! My friend and I settled on the tropical mango, after much deliberation, if not only because it would make for a good point of comparison to other places Ive tried. Along with the chunks of fresh mango that came with it, there was also a small sprinkling of sprinkles, and a healthy serving of popping boba as well. Overall, not bad. Good mango flavor, good texture, and not too terribly sweet or bland. Is it among the best Ive tried? Not even close. But it probably IS the best that Ive tried in the Bay Area so far, so its a shame that its all the way out here in Dublin! ***Accessibility Info*** Venue - A small cafe, but with accessible seating, for the most part. Bathroom - Didnt try them, so no comment.

This place has good food and all, but it honestly depends on what time you come in order to have a good experience. Since this place has started to gain its popularity in ice cream (especially rolled ice cream), the service for sit-down customers isnt that great if the place is swarming with people desperate for ice cream on a hot day. There was this one day where I went and the service was terrible because they switched all their old employees for new ones and they completely forgot to give us our forks and plates after all our food arrived. But the other times that I have eaten at this restaurant was a pretty good experience. So overall, the service can be pretty bad sometimes, but everything else, including the meals and ice cream, is good.

The desert is the only thing thats good there, but it runs out pretty quickly. Their asian meals are not to good, and its a little slow, its not to expensive, but Im afraid that this resturant is not the best there is in Dublin, but the entree can be a little more improved. The fried stuff is good as all fried stuff is, but the noodle soups need lots of improvement

I just had the worst experience here for a takeout: 1. Waited for >30min (a lady there waited for much longer just for a sandwich!) 2. Missed one item on our order and had to go back The restaurant seems to be under a new management starting 08/01/2017. They raised the price. Parking is horrible in this block. I dont think Ill come back again for anything.

Extremely nasty rude servers that treated my little girl so bad, she cried on her birthday at the store. You have been warned. All three servers are the same bad attitude despite I tried to approach different servers.

Ive only had two things here, but so far so good! The snow is some awesome concoction of icy, milky, and fruity. The wings were also good. The place is a bit small, and does have a minimum charge per person so beware!

Food is average, but I guess people come here for the dessert which is something to try. The service was really fast.

I live in Fairfield and I dont mind driving almost two hours to go here for some delicious shave ice and milk tea.

Pushy and rude waitress forced the tip on us. The food was good but service was bad in general.

Food is okay, but service is extremely horrible. The lady was extremely rude and impatient.

Unique dessert place should experience once if you are around, especially summer!

Food was great! However, server was crap. She forced us to pay a higher tip.
