The snow here is top notch because of the flavors. The service is nice and friendly, and the price is comparable to the uniqueness of the product: slightly higher than normal but you get what you pay for.We had the taro and milk ice with fresh mango and strawberry, nuts and mochi... It did not disappoint. The snow was so light and fluffy with no Ive chuncks at all.

This place is a hidden gem for dessert lovers.Having a variety of drinks, some of which are poured into cans, and sealed, so you can open it later if youd like. Kinda like boba cups, but in a can instead.The biggest wow is their snow. Its so soft, and it doesnt melt and freeze over. This is different from shaved ice, as shaved ice melts and hardens, making it chunky ice.I got the teaspoon, which is Thai tea snow, green tea snow, with an array of toppings. Its not an in and out type of place. Expect to wait a bit, as making the snow takes a while, as well as the drinks.

I wouldnt recommend togo on something like this but if you can eat here you should.Great flavor on the shaved snow and good selection of toppings.I ordered a plate so I could do half and half. I went with Thai Tea and Green Tea topped with red bean and condensed milk. It hit the spot.It is a lot of snow but it does condense down quite a bit so its not over the top as far as too much... if there is a such a thing.Anywho I think you should give it a go.

Great option for shaved snow dessert on a 110 degree day!I appreciate their option of sizes in the case its just you wanting a little treat for yourself and not some dessert meal for 4.They have a variety of toppings and flavors but nothing super outstanding unfortunately. I definitely stared at the menu and couldnt find something i would want to add on. I would say its very similar to toppings you would find at a froyo place. Unfortunately that goes for the boba and mochi... it definitely tasted like the frozen yogurt mochi they have in the bins rather than the authentic Taiwanese mochi you find in other shaved ice establishments (i know this isnt one of those places but still.. it just tasted not fresh). Im also not a huge fan of the fruity syrups since they are too sweet for my liking, but i do know others find it great.I would recommend for those looking for a cool dessert to bring your body temp down from the scorching summer temps. If youre seeking more traditional froyo toppings then this place is great...However not so great if youre looking for more of the authentic shaved ice. I would recommend adding some of the other ingredients in their specialty items as add on toppings (ex: the pound cake) for more variety.

Ive followed snow station from mission viejo, to orange, to this location... I actually lost the most weight in my life when I was frequenting the mission viejo location way back when. it was a great sweet treat that didnt pack in calories. I am so happy this location is still serving the recipe and my first visit the employee knew what she was doing and totally made my dream come true. -1 star because WHAT HAPPENED TO THE ALMOND SNOW 😥😥😥?!?!

My new favorite place, the toppings tasted fresh and clean. They have a few tables outside and they have hand sanitizer and come out to wipe down tables every so often. The staff is super helpful and friendly too!

Fantastic dairy-alternative (soy) shaved milk snow establishment. Friendly employees, delectable flavors with various toppings, and even gourmet coffee drinks. Definitely worth a try, you wont regret it. Take a friend, split a plate, and thank me later.

Kids really love shaved snow ice. Takes good, since class 302 is closed, this might be our best place to hit for shaved ice.

Amazing place for people who have a sweet tooth. The interior is nice and clean. Very hip and stylish. A lot of friendly staff who are always kind to answer questions. Its a unique experience to have shaved ice cream and this is the place to do it. They also have games on the side so theres no reason why you cant bring the whole family.

A small place located in a strip mall, Snow Station serves snow ice dessert and some other drinks. While the staff was nice, the snow was subpar. I got the Strawberry Snow as the staff informed it was the most popular flavor. It was disgustingly sweet. The flavors of the toppings and the snow pointed to lots of sugar and artificial flavor. It tasted like a fluffy ice cream version of 7-11s Slurpee. Ive had good fluffy snow at many other places before. The snow served here offends the traditional light and airy deliciousness of snow dessert. I can see this as a good hangout spot for teens but I cant say it is a great place to get snow.

Review №35

Not a bad place to wind down, eat snow/ice cream and hang out with friends.There are mostly people of oriental descent who are customers and employees here, and it seemed as if we werent too welcome at this location. (Dirty looks, bad attitude, etc.) (even though were half white, some Chinese)Customers had kids who were running around and not respecting the place at all as well. That might be one reason why we wont be returning to this location.Employees seem very passive as if they cant say no and cant handle horrible customers.

Came here with my family on a Friday night for dessert after dinner. It was crowded as expected but the service was slow itself. The kids enjoyed the shaved ice and game but the adults would prefer to go somewhere less hectic with faster service.

I was in this mall and saw the poster of hand drip coffee. I was wondering hows coffee taste in the ice cream shop and decided to give it try. Hand drip coffee was great. It is very mild. Price is good as well. $3.50. My friend had pistachio frappe and it was delicious as well. I will try shaved ice next time.

I went here after we eat Korean BBQ. Store looks nice and simple n clean.I tried shaved ice in class 302 before but snow station shaved ice is seems like similar but taste is different.I talked to owner of this place and he told me they have Vegan-friendly and Dairy-free flavors. He offered free samples and suggested Taro and Lychee and it is so delicious. I want to try macaroon but they were too big. hope they have small one in the future.Great dessert place and customer service.

The snow is very finely cut. Trust me, the milky flavors (like chocolate) are FAR better than the fruit options, like raspberry. Good for a cold treat on a hot day, but nothing incredibly remarkable.

I thought this is yogurt place but it is more likely cafe style shaved ice shop. Personally I like this place more than boba time (which is located in same mall) because they are bigger and faster service and taste better.
