Noon Korean Bingsoo House

Korean style of shaved ice place. The thing I like is that they serve individual cups. Injeolmi was good, but strawberry shaved ice and mango shaved ice were so-so-.. you taste too much of sugary syrup than flavor from thr fruit. they have many tables for two, interior is minial.

been here several times, best bingsu spot in the greater area. always get the mango (best when summer season for peak ripeness). thought the cinnamon toast was alright, the flavors without syrup can't really compete though. the chocolate crepe cake was also okay, though for the price you should just get bingsu.

Really good stuff here. Really catchy and popular spot on weekend evenings. Recommended was the injeolmi flavor, which has red bean, tofu, and a someqhat coffee taste. This was a must get. The grape and strawberry for those who like fruity. Also had the cinnamon toast crunch, really good

The mango bingsu is sooo good. So much that we wanted to get another but tried grape just in case and it wasn’t as good so we ordered another mango one. The syrup was so good omg I highly recommend!!

Got the Cinnamon Toast Crunch flavor which was good but the shaved ice base is just not as good as I hoped. Very light and icy

I love bingsu (Korean shaved ice). The shaved ice was soft & light sweet mixed with fresh mango. Amazing combination. I was surprised by their creamy tiramisu. It’s really good. I could not find it no where else.

Very inviting decor/space. Simplistic menu layout that is so appreciated for not being too much to choose from. You can taste the quality of the ingredients for sure! And they are so pretty when prepared. Tried this spot out of the blue and will definitely be coming back! :) (special shout out to Nicholas, was so sweet and patience when I was ordering and was so kind 🥹💓)

Nice dessert and coffee place in a plaza with ample parking. We got the tiramisu latte and corn bingsu. The tiramisu was delicious without being too sweet so it was a perfect balance. We've never had corn bingsu before so I would recommend giving it a try! The shaved ice has a fluffy texture and the crunchiness of the cornflakes pairs well with it. It got a bit too sweet for me towards the bottom from the hidden corn sauce so make sure to mix it a bit before enjoying it. All in all we would visit again!

My first time here. The place is cozy and nice. The bingsoo is good! The portion for sharing is good! The service was not bad.

TL;DR - cinnamon toast crunch bingsoo (my favorite), injeolmi bingsoo (classic Korean option), blueberry yogurt bingsoo (exactly as you'd imagine), and sweet corn bingsoo (uses corn flake cereal) were decent. Ended up scooping plain shaved milk ice at the end but got the job done. Had a craving for bingsoo and found this to be down the street from where we were eating. They had a lot of fun options and I found myself having a hard time choosing... so we went with the cinnamon toast crunch bingsoo and injeolmi bingsoo. We liked them both!..... and then got two more because there were 5 of us LOL. Our round two consisted of blueberry yogurt bingsoo and sweet corn bingsoo. Cinnamon toast crunch bingsoo - my favorite because I have a big sweet tooth and like cinnamon toast crunch in general. Sweet crunchy toppings with a refreshing base of shaved ice underneath. It was quite simple and very refreshing. The injeolmi bingsoo is a classic option for Korean shaved ice. The finale shaved milk ice (the base for all of them) was refreshing, cold, and creamy. For those unfamiliar with injeolmi powder, it is roasted soybean powder. It tends to have a dry powdery taste. They also drizzle sweetened condensed milk (or something to that effect) on top. It's overall refreshing and sweet. It has a very unique taste if you're curious to know what classic bingsoo tastes like! For round two we got the blueberry yogurt bingsoo and sweet corn bingsoo. The blueberry yogurt is exactly as described. Whole blueberries with yogurt. Tastes and feels healthier. Also very yummy. Sweet corn bingsoo has corn flakes on it if you're a fan of that cereal. Also decent. All of these bingsoos were smaller than what I expected them to be. They were tasty but we found ourselves digging into plain shaved milk ice at the end. It was different from what we normally would experience in K-town but it still got the job done. Service was good and ambiance was quiet (easy to have a conversation, good place for kids)

My friend from Korea really wanted Korean shaved ice. She said it really missed the mark. $10 for banana pudding (esp the size) seemed extreme so I tried the red velvet crepe cake. Initially tasted fine, but the frosting left a weird aftertaste. Vibe was fine, service was standard but the desserts were icky

Had to come back to try the Tiramisu after my last visit aka two days later haha. The Tiramisu is delicious and the coffee flavor is perfect. It's doesn't have a burnt coffee or strong alcohol taste like other places. When we came in a Saturday night there was no seating, it was very busy. All of their desserts are amazing! ig: @cravingswithcat

Really hits the spot as one of few Korean bingsoo spots in South Bay. My husband and I have been here a few times, and it's always been pretty good. I've had the mango, blueberry, injeolmi, and matcha. They were all pretty good, but my favorite was mango. There is good amount of fruit and each order is shareable but not too big that one person can't finish it. Service is efficient and the staff has always been courteous. I'd give it 5 stars except I've had really good bingsoo in Ktown and it isn't as good as that... however, it is a great spot if you're in South Bay and it has never been too crowded when we've gone, we've always been able to snag a table without an issue. Desserts are pretty to look at, that is always a big plus!

WOW! so refreshing, sweet, fluffy, and delicious! they even layer fresh mangoes in the cup :) the flavors seem very unique and not too pricey. the staff is kind and quick, and frequently cleaning up the tables after guests leave. it's a great place to chat with friends (like i did) or study!

Came here post dinner on a weeknight and the place was literally packed. Tons of students at tables working which was great, but didn't leave much room folks looking to sit and enjoy a drink or desserts as they lingered longer than your average customer. Ambiance was louder than your normal cafe which wasn't great, but overall not too bad. They had great desserts and variety - the portions were decently sized vs. the price and the taste was fine. We enjoyed our desserts for sure, the ambiance just wasn't great for us and we ended up leaving quickly. Overall, if you're a smaller party, you'll probably be fine. For larger ones, this spot wouldn't be for you assuming everyone would want to sit and enjoy their food.

We got the injeolmi bingsoo to share which is meant for 3+ people, but we were able to share and finish between 2 people after eating dinner. The size is definitely perfect for 3 but bingsoo is light and cold so you can definitely eat more! The roasted soy bean powder was nutty and yummy. The bingsoo was creamy, and there were layers of mochi midway through - nice to have substance with each bite deeper into it. Only thing is I would have preferred a bit more red bean. I loved the graphics in the place. Ambiance could be improved to really pull this place together. Maybe more games available, and changing the big bright lights into something more warm. Not too much interaction with the staff since you order and bus your own tables, but friendly service overall. I'd definitely come back!

I loved it here!! Loved the retro/classic homey vibes and yummy bingsoo to accompany the aesthetics. Def shareable for SO and I at least, and the injeolmi was really tasty! Would def come back. Parking was super easy too - it's underground and plentiful.

Went back again with friends, and the bingsoo was just as good as always. This place keeps getting more popular, so it was hard to find a seat. Even with the crowd, the coffee hit the spot, and I loved that the restroom was nice and clean too.

Recently tried this place out without looking at the menu beforehand and I was pleasantly surprised by the unique options they had. I had to get the sweet corn bingsoo and it did not disappoint. I loved it so much we actually finished the large sharing size. definitely will be back to try the other flavors!

First off, this place used to be Oncle's Cafe and lots of reviews here are for that business. In fact, any review written before April 2025 is for Oncle's. This place is now Noon Bingsoo House. They offer Bingsoo, Cakes, and Tiramisu. This is one of many businesses in a shopping plaza. Parking is free, but it's tight driving around. There's also parking located down a ramp which I've never used. Upon walking in, we were greeted and our order was taken quickly. Our desserts were ready by the time I finished paying. I picked it up and carried it to the table hubby secured. The interior is sparsely decorated. They do have pitchers of water for you to help yourself to. Hubby & I came after dinner and shared two desserts. I wanted the Mango Bingsoo and he wanted the Banana Pudding. The Mango Bingsoo was okay, but not the best I've had. I must commend the staff on the fact that it looked exactly like the picture on the menu board! However, the bingsoo was a slight letdown. The shaved snow was not plentiful, I expected the snow to be piled a little higher above the top of the container. Upon looking at the bingsoo, I was thinking there wasn't going to be enough fruit, but I was happy there was plenty of mango pieces hidden in the container. I would also like a little more mango sauce over the top. I'm not quite sure what the mousse-like mound on top is, but it was good. I think the shaved snow was milk flavored. I was hoping it was mango like I've had at other places. The Banana Pudding was good. It comes pre-made and is ready to eat, just pop off the lid. The pudding was a creamy consistency with a good amount of vanilla wafer cookies in it. For the desserts that come in the paper cups, they would look much nicer if they were presented in something clear. I think the bingsoo should have more sauce on top of the shaved snow. I like the portion size of the single bingsoo because realistically, that's more than enough for me. Hubby wants to try the Sweet Corn Bingsoo, so we may be back for it.

Next to a big car dealership. Tucked in the small.plaza. parking spaces are bit tight, but no issue finding one. The place is very popular, all the seats were taken. And more people were waiting for our seats as we were enjoying our shaved ice. The shaved ice is milk based in case if you are lactose intolerant. The big size is really big for one person and the small one could still be shared if you dont have a big appetite. The ice was really tasty and not overly sweet. The service was more self served; the cashier was friendly. Great experience overall, its gets a 4.7 out of 5.

I came here to get an individually sized order for strawberry bingsoo for $8.50 and I enjoyed the fluffy, creamy, milky ice with the strawberry yogurty cream and fresh strawberries. I loved that they made layers of shaved ice and fruit, so that you could find pieces of fruit in the middle and bottom. The biggest surprise was being able to see that they had some unique flavors. I couldn't leave without ordering an individual cinnamon toast crunch bingsoo. The classic combo of milk and cinnamon toast crunch was here in this dish. I like that they topped the shaved snow with cinnamon and they topped the cereal with caramel sauce. Overall, both dishes were delicious. The only thing that could have been better for me was that I would have liked more bites with strawberry cream in the strawberry bingsoo and I would have liked more cinnamon and caramel sauce in the middle/bottom of the cinnamon toast crunch bingsoo. Regardless, I'm so glad that I stopped by and their interesting flavors definitely won my interest.

Service was great when ordering and just as good as when I walked back up to the counter adding for an additional utensils. it was somewhat busy this afternoon. They changed their Large serving bowls from a metallic material to ceramic bowls. I would come back here for some unique ice cream.

The strawberry bingo at noon is a great dessert (10/10) to get on a hot day. The ice is extremely fine and the strawberry flavor is very fresh. We liked that it was not too sweet and that the strawberry to shaved ice ratio was good. The large is quite large so I recommend you share with ppl. We shared it with 4 people and it was plenty. The matcha cake was unfortunately not as delicious (5/10). It was extremely earthy and not sweet like you'd expect of a crepe cake or any cake. You might like it if you want a true strong matcha forward crepe cake. The dalgona coffee was good and like any other dalgona coffee (7/10). The people who took are order was very nice. The inside is a decent size and has about 30 seats but this place gets busy so seating isn't always available. Overall a nice place to get dessert with family or friends.

It was my first time here since it switched from Oncle to Noon, but the shaved ice is still so good! I love the variety of flavor and different types of dessert that they have. I got the single serve mango and strawberry bingsoo to share and it was delicious!! They also have another store next store with extra tables and seating. The main store was a little busy when I went so I appreciate the extra space for me and my group to sit and enjoy the bingsoo!

SOOO good. One of my the best bingsoo's I've had in a while! I would really recommend getting sweet corn flavor. I loved how unique it was and how refreshing it tasted. The shaved ice here is actually shaved milk, so the texture of it is suuuper smooth and melts in your mouth instantly. I expected the sweet corn flavor to quite literally taste mostly like corn initially. It's a much milder flavor of corn which I thought was a bit more enjoyable. We came right after they introduced their new blueberry yogurt flavor, and unfortunately I thought it was just okay. It was sort of reminiscent of "go-gurt" to me, vs. a more tart and lighter yogurt taste lol. Bingsoo comes out quickly here and the employees were very kind too!

A hidden gem :) Went to eat at a restaurant in the same plaza and found this place! We ordered the single serving (enough for two) Strawberry Bingsoo and it was soooooo good. I loved the strawberry cream on top and liked how the bottom is filled with the strawberry + jams they used!! The Christmas decoration definitely gives off the perfect cozy vibes!! Would definitely come back again to try more flavors

It was delicious. I have never had one of these so I didn't know what to expect. It exceeded my expectation. The place is very cute inside with lots of tables and chill music ... all the tables were full of people talking with their friends or on dates. Super cute spot to grab dessert and they are open late night. I tried the strawberry which was my favorite and captain crunch. Sorry I don't have pictures but I was too busy enjoying!! I will be sure to return and support this local business.

I came in for dessert a few days ago. It was my first time having bingsoo. Initially, I had thought it was another rehash of shaved ice, but no, the base is NOT ice, it's shaved milk! The closest I've had to this was Taiwanese shaved snow. Originally, I wanted to try corn bingsoo, but since they were out I settled for plan B (injeolmi), which I believe is soybean. The dessert costs around $7-8 the serving can be shared with two people. Overall, it was delicious and refreshing! The ambiance was pretty simple but clean, there were plenty of seating spaces, and definitely not crowded. I think it's a good place to hang out. The store is part of a plaza with limited parking on the top floor, but parking options in the basement. Service was alright. Nothing stood out. They did take a while (maybe at least 15 minutes) to prepare my order on a slow day, but I wasn't in any rush so it wasn't an issue (though the less time, the better). That's the only part I'd suggest improvement on. Other than that, I'd visit again to try their other flavors!

My favorite dessert place. The first time I had the cinnamon toast bingsu I was mind blown it reminded of my childhood ice cream. My go to is the Cinnamon Toast Crunch. The banana bread pudding is good too. My visit this week was lovely. I was so excited to get my Cinnamon Toast Crunch shaved ice but unfortunately they had ran out of milk. Whoever the waiter offered us a strawberry shaved ice on the house and well we couldn't say no after that we actually order a iced latte and i definitely will be coming back but for another ice coffee . The ambience is always nice at time there is no empty tables but ones you do it a very nice vide Hands down my favorite in Gardena I will definitely be coming back to get my Cinnamon Toast Crunch

It was decent. We ordered two different flavors one kind of melted right away versus the other one. One was overly sweet but the service and presentation was nice.

We discovered this hidden jam through yelp and were delighted to find it. The snow was flaky and dense, so it melts in your mouth. The flavors for Matcha was really creamy and flavorful while the roasted bean powder is one of my favorites for those who like Asian flavors. Service staff was young but quick. The ambience is a cashew café with just a few tables so most people take it to go.

Aw man, this place isn't as good after (becoming) Noon. I really enjoyed this place as Oncle's, but the rebrand Noon does not hit the same nor has the same aesthetic. First of all, they got rid of one of their benches (which definitely helped with seating) and the interior seems blank yet dirty. There was organization to the seating and tables were not cleaned regularly. It seems like they just ripped off a lot of the interior design and left it blank with all the cracks exposed. None of the cool retro vibes of Oncle's remains. They also downsized their drink menu, and their matcha color is a dull pale green (so I didn't even need to try it to tell you it's not good). I do appreciate though that Noon offers Single serve sizes of bingsoo though. It makes it easier to try more! But the flavor selection isn't the same. I miss the Vienna coffee flavor they used to have, but I did enjoy their sweet corn (maybe 7/10). I would like a taro flavor on the menu as well. I haven't tried the rebrand tiramisu and banana pudding (which hit before), but I hope those are still good. But overall Noon is just not the same quaint but cool vibe I got from Oncle's. RIP Oncle's, but I'm not sure if I can get behind Noon just yet.

Amazingly soft Korean shaved ice, they offer both staple and seasonal flavors. We ordered the strawberry and green grape which the strawberry had a deep flavor and pairing with the vanilla ice. The green grape was not that far as it was tart and sweet like a real sour grape. The cafe itself is small but its a great stop for a date or hangout with friends. We were served by Krish and he handled all our questions and orders with a great attitude. He even handled the lunch rush while we were eating all alone and got the ice shaving machine working when it got over heated. Absolute champ. This ice cream shop offers a "pop-up"(?) or addition that offers housemade tiramisu. I've been dying to try it since i seen it online and can easily say it's as good as it looks. Fluffly cream with a deep matcha (or espresso!) flavor, what more do you need?

SO YUMMY!!!!! I finished the mango bingsoo in record time. My lady loved her cinnamon toast bingsoo, but I didn't really care for that flavor. In my opinion, the fruit flavors is where it's at. My lady and I came at 9, and the line got loooong when we were waiting for our bingsoo. There's plenty of seating, but there's also a lot of people using that seating. We were lucky to snag a seat when one opened up, but it seemed like people knew not to linger when they finished up their dessert. I really wish they kept the decor from when they were Oncle, because it's looking a little sparse in there...but my lady loves this place so we'll definitely be back!

Little spot in a strip mall with plenty of parking. The inside is very simple and plain. We tried the mango and injeolmi shaved ice and both were really refreshing. The mango had much more mango bits than the injeolmi one (wish there were another layer of red bean inside). I thought it was a bit pricey for the size. Overall good experience but it wasn't anything spectacular. Service was also ok.

A new bingsoo spot in town! There isn't many places in the South Bay that serves Korean style shaved ice so this is exciting! * shaved ice * friendly service * indoor seating * coffee tea and drinks This plaza used to be my go to plaza back in the days with the karaoke but one thing that's really bad about this plaza is their parking situation - it's just not great. Always packed in the parking but the plaza always seem empty. I was shocked at how slow our food and drinks came out. We ordered - and then I walked over to the optometry spot in the same plaza for about a good fifteen minutes to pick up items and came back thinking the shaved ice melted ... only to find out our drinks and shaved ice didn't come out. Once the place was packed with people studying and talking - I noticed a lot of customers coming in and realizing they had no where to sit - thankfully we came early and got a table but I can see this being hard. I would come again to try their sweet corn shaved ice.

The strawberry bingsoo is delicious. I used to be obsessed with shaved ice but this has been my new go to. love to get extra condensed milk on the side. There is seating inside and the dessert shop gives a cozy vibe to it. Service is always welcoming. A little pricier but portion is large and can easily be shared by two people.

Sooooo yummy. The interior is kind of dingy, and it can be hard to find a table on a weekend night, but what the interior lacks is made up for in the service and food. They allowed me to have a matcha bingsoo with no red bean and extra mochi. It was complete decadence. I will be back for my regular bingsoo needs.

THIS IS WHY I USE YELP. I saw a picture of this place randomly on yelp 10 minutes before I decided to try what this dessert is all about. On a whim I showed up to oncles to try the mango bingsoo. BINGSOO It's shaved ice with mango puree and mango pieces. I guess the shaved ice is milky. But I would have never even known this place existed if not for Yelp and I pass this place every weekend on my drive. I got a large for me and my girl and we finished it in 10 minutes. Pretty good!! Quick dessert, mission accomplished.

Oncle's Cafe is a homey and cozy Korean cafe serving up some delicious cakes, bingsoos, drinks, and more! This spot is located in a plaza with a decent amount of parking spots with a downstairs parking garage with more additional spots. Inside, they have a warm and welcoming ambiance with about 6-8 tables for seating. For their menu, they have bingsoos, tiramisus, cakes, coffee, speciality drinks, and einspanners. I stopped by with some homies after dinner and got the Hallabong Spritz and a Sweet Corn Bingsoo to share with everyone. Everything that I tried was refreshing, a great palette cleanser, and was not too sweet. Overall, I enjoyed the ambiance of the cafe, having a nice space to cleanse my palette, and unwind with the homies. All of the staff here are very friendly and welcoming. I would highly recommend trying one of their bingsoos!

Average bingsoo I think. Alot sweeter, texture is a little different and comes with a mousse. When we went, they only had like 3 flavors which was interesting.. But it's not something I would go out of the way for.

The space is a little small but we've always had luck finding a table. The menu is a bit limited but the flavors are fun! Each time, service is quick and the ice texture is amazing as it mixes with the toppings.

Wow, the sweet corn bingsoo was so cool! I absolutely loved it. Would maybe be cool to actually include kernels of corn in addition to the corn sauce they use--but it was so unexpected and tasty! I also liked the little chocolate bits. The bingsoo here is a bit pricey for the portions they give you, but the flavor is on point. And there really aren't any superior options in the area.

Amazing dessert option!! It was my first time here and it did not disappoint. I ordered the Cinnamon Toast Crunch one and wow, it tastes like a cold cereal bowl! They add a good portion of the cereal throughout the bowl. It's not all at the top! I think that's amazing bc some places only add it to the top. The service was fast, didn't ask for much. The place gets busy but there is plenty of tables - people come and go! :) They play music so that is nice.

I am so happy that they opened up a bingsoo spot in the area. Noon Korean Bingsoo House offers more than just bingsoo such as tiramisu style cakes and a several coffee drinks, but the bingsoo is the star. I've been a couple of times in the past month and got to try a few different bingsoos. On both visits the strawberry bingsoo and mango bingsoo were sold out. It does get pretty busy when it's hot out so they have the store next door just for extra seating. // BINGSOO // Cinnamon Toast Crunch - my favorite one so far that I've tried! Tastes exactly like the cereal we all love on finely shaved ice. The perfect treat on a hot day! 5/5 Sweet Corn - Might sound different to some, but sweet corn bingsoo hits the spot. 4/5 Blueberry Yogurt - Fresh blueberries, yogurt sauce, over the bingsoo. It was good, but not great. 3.5/5 Injeolmi - Overall, not bad but it's also my least favorite. Tastes exactly like it's supposed to but I'm just not a fan. 1.5/5 Overall, if you're in the Gardena area and craving a bingsoo on a hot day, I would highly recommend checking out Noon Korean Bingsoo House. However, if you're wanting coffee or cakes, I would go elsewhere such as Yeems across the street for coffee.

Just discovered this hidden gem or at least it was a hidden gem to me will definitely be coming back I had it earlier and I can't stop thinking about it soo yummy

Powdery light consistency and delicious toppings make a delicate dessert even more special. The blueberry yogurt topping was my favorite flavor. It was creamy, tangy and just the right sweetness. I would definitely recommend this Noon Bingsoo location.

service & price - we got 2 regulars which was around $16-17 total and were very well portioned. the service was great and the bingsu came out pretty quick. bingsu (8/10) - both the options we got were pretty good but not as good as other places i prefer. the flavor is primarily whatever tops the bingsu rather than throughout the dessert. most places i tend to go to have all the bingsu flavored as opposed to only having it on the top. i do enjoy that it comes with mochi though. inside - there are a decent amount of tables, but it was pretty busy when we went (around 7-8pm on a friday). parking - it's located in a plaza with both on ground and underground parking so it's not too bad.

The bingsoo here is good, sweet but not too sweet. Ice texture is good and a must have for hot summer days. We stopped in late one evening to give it a try. Many of their more popular options were already sold out for the day. The dining area was quite messy and tables were left dirty from the day's rush. The bingsoo is worth it, but the dirty tables and floors keeps the experience from being great.

Presentation wasn't all that but once you dig into it, yum! It looks like they barely put anything when it's right on top but there's a layer of the ice cream ice and then a whole layer of fruit and puree and then another layer of the ice cream ice and more fruit and puree! Looks are deceiving when you first get it, it's actually super dense, large size split amongst four people and it was plenty for after dinner dessert snack

Tiny tiny hole in the wall place, located on the bottom floor. It was nice and spacious inside. I loved the Mango dessert very nice on a hot summer day. Plenty of seating inside. Everyone seems to come here to study.

Delicious! From ice to topping... it was all great. We were skeptical at first cause it's empty.... But as bringer of people, they slowly crawled in. The place was clean, the service was quick and the server friendly. We love it.

:( I'm so sad to hear that Podong has closed and Oncle's now changed to Noon. Personally not a fan of their new interior design. Service was fast and friendly, I'd just not want to pay $6.5 for this matcha einspanner again as it's so bitter (like Costco Sencha matcha, you can look at the dull color) and the cream top is overwhipped. The quality has gone down since the last drink I got when they were Oncle's and I'm kind of miss the old aesthetics too :(

Ever since I traveled to Korea, I haven't found a Bingsoo that semi-compared until now. My friend had thing place on her must try list and recommended it to me. I ordered a single serve Sweet Corn Bingsoo and it was SO good! The flavor was perfectly balanced and the chocolate chip and corn flake toppings were perfect. The worker was also super nice and made sure I was satisfied with the order. Overall, would highly recommend this place for a sweet treat after a meal!

Came here Saturday around 2pm. Parking in lot and underground as well. Service was friendly and quick given it was busy. One restroom in the back. Ordered the mango regular size mango bingsoo good size for two people. Also got the coffee tiramisu it tasted like the flavor. Eco friendly utensils. Pricy but for the amount and flavor it is worth it.

Been wanting to try this place since I deep diced hard onto "dessert places nearby" one night. Happened to be in the area to try recently & it didn't disappoint. The young woman who helped us was so helpful & answered my questions about flavors and what to expect since it was our first time. We did take it to-go; but when you dine in, it's given in a bowl and you get to see the bingsoo in all its glory. The inside was cozy with small and large groups of people gathered just chatting and enjoying a treat together. It took about 10 minutes or so to get our bingsoos, but we took a seat and enjoyed some light reading they provided in a little nook of a bookshelf. We tried 1 personal size of matcha and 1 personal size of strawberry & they both hit the mark wonderfully. The texture of the ice was perfect & the proportions of the sweet ice to the purées was wonderful. The matcha was so strong in flavor, yet still balanced and creamy. The strawberry was sweet, fresh and well rounded. I need to go back again so I can dine it and get the full experience, but nonetheless it was still amazing .
