We're a local business and we just threw our annual Summer Soiree! We partnered with Santa Cruz…read moreShave Ice to come and serve their refreshing delish treats (sugar-free and gluten free available too). I have also hired this great local company for neighborhood events, block parties and open houses. They are very professional and arrived in plenty of time to set up their amazing Tiki Bar! We didn't have a lot of kids so we weren't sure how many people would partake of the shave ice but it was a HUGE hit, especially our concoction of "Schoon-er-Ritas." OMG these are so GOOD! Santa Cruz Shave Ice is super easy to work with. The owners are accommodating, very pleasant to interact with and are AMAZING party planners. Chermae and Sybil are friendly, funny and truly enjoy the fruits of their labor. If you want to move your party to the next level, we highly recommend hiring Santa Cruz Shave Ice.

I was in the area with my brother and my niece. While my brother had to do something nearby, I saw…read morepeople on the street holding shaved ice. Looking at how delicious they were, I asked where they got this from. They pointed me to the corner and I went in with my niece. The space is rather small, but you don't really need to sit in the store to enjoy the amazing food. They have curated list of items or you can build your own. My niece wanted specific colors, so we opted for build your own style. We got mango ice cream at the bottom with strawberry and cotton candy syrup, topped with mochi and condensed milk. The shaved ice itself was finely grounded and easy to scoop. I didn't have any chunks of ice that made eating this unbearable. The syrups were delicious and sweet and worked well together. The condensed milk tied it all together and the mochi added a nice texture touch. The mango ice cream was also delicious. Overall, a very reasonably priced dessert. I look forward to coming back again.

I would definitely recommend and I am excited to go back and try more flavors!

Cute and locally-owned shop in downtown Santa Cruz. There are a number of Italian ice flavors and…read moresome coffee selections such as Affogato. Owner was helpful and shared the story of his father behind the name of his shop. We ordered a large that comes with up to 4 flavor scoops. The kids enjoyed the mango a d pineapple flavors. The affogato with a small scoop of salted caramel just didn't hit the mark with an underwhelming scoop of Italian ice that doesn't do the same as a scoop of traditional vanilla ice cream plus a disproportionate amount of bitter coffee. Prices are average. An okay spot if you need a cool treat and can't get to the local premium ice cream shop.

Amazing food especially when you're on a budget…read more The man at the counter is always friendly. Great prices and best bang for your buck in Santa Cruz, which really matters when everything is overpriced. I'm not a huge chicken person, but their chicken katsu is legendary. Crispy breading, no gross pieces (very important), super flavorful, tender and delicious. One side of chicken katsu is filling enough to call dinner & at a genuinely unbeatable price. $5 will get you a: cheeseburger, pulled pork sandwich, grilled chicken sandwich, bbq beef sandwich, and more. When money is tight and you've got less than $10 for a filling and flavorful meal, take your $$ to L&L. You'll leave full and happy you didn't have to spend $25-$50 for a good, hot, tasty meal.

(Used to upscale food where I live) steak was so overly salted first off(could smell it) cut into it was well done on the outside and middle was very close to raw.

Owner ended up negating my food and charging me for my wife whose food was a tad better than that. My second steak came out over salted and my baked potato littered with cheese .
