    Taro & Cookie Monster
    Lizarely Q.

    Loved ittt! Called in and they have staff taking orders but they also have a screen to order from. Decided to go with the taiyaki with Nutella & the taro & Cookie Monster ice cream. It was sooo good!!! Clean & fast service.

    Cute location! My friend got boba and it was good but I got the matcha taiyaki ice cream and it was just okay. Not sure if I'll come back, but if I do I'll just get boba.

    Came on a Saturday evening. Wasn't busy at all. They offer the kiosk or the register to order. The kiosk different offer everything on the menu. So ordered at the register. The staff was rude didn't really care. First time here and I wanted to know what the best selling ice cream was but they answered with one word. But overall the place is clean. So many items to choose from. The serving size is was too much for a child, so just be mindful. We weren't able to finish one serving size. Also the chocolate ice cream was already melting by the time we got it. Which was weird. But the strawberry and horchata swirl was really good. Chocolate was decent just didn't like how it was melting. Would definitely come back.

    Break the Ice is a local dessert place in Riverside county with a Korean flair. We stopped by for dessert after a big lunch to satisfy our craving for boba. Their signature item is the taiyaki ice cream reminiscent of Somi Somi. We ordered the horchata/strawberry milk and taro/matcha taiyaki ice cream. The consistency of the ice cream was not creamy or rich but more icy, and so it wasn't as good as it appears. Super aesthetic though! In terms of cleanliness, customer service, and atmosphere, it is a nice quiet shop with ice cream or boba options. However, I didn't think the quality of the ice cream was better than Somi Somi or specialty ice cream places.

    Needed a late night treat, came here, and the place was jumping. Ordered at the kiosk and waited for my order. Everything was very efficient and tasted lovely. Great way to spend a summer evening and plenty of outdoor seating. Plus, there are many eateries, in this area, with lots of options.

    A friend and I were in the area and wanted a sweet treat. I saw in the window that they sold boba and taiyaki, which I was surprised about. We went in, there are two entrances, side and the front. There was bar seating and tables inside as well as patio seating outside. The shop looks like your typical ice cream shop, with blue, white, and yellow accents along the walls and decor. It looks very sweet. The servers greeted us when we came in and said to let them know if we had any questions. The menu is on a wall and there are alot of options. There's the taiyaki, soft serve, milk tea, fruit tea, and smoothies. I chose the speciality drink (lavender with taro wave boba) and my friend the Thai tea with 2 piece taiyaki with Nutella filling. We didn't wait too long for our orders. There is also a restroom inside. I really like my drink but it very sweet and there was a lot of boba in it. Not too bad and the taiyaki was good but very gooey.

    Good service and portion. Reasonable prices. The soft serve could have been creamier, but the waffle was great. Good location with lots of parking.

    Came here for a sweet treat after having a hard day. Instant pick-me-up! The employee was energetic, enthusiastic, and kind! He helped us right away, and even offered a recommendation. He was also very quick/efficient, as he had both of our drinks and taiyaki ice creams out in under five minutes! We tried to tip but there wasn't an option in the tablet, so we went to the ATM at Ralph's to get cash for a tip haha Everything was delicious! The strawberry milk tea and Thai tea were flavorful, yet not overly sweet- just right. The Vietnamese coffee ice cream was strongly caffeinated, which I appreciated the energy boost! And the Taro ice cream was very refreshing in the hot weather! The taiyakis even came with Pocky/Pepero sticks and some mochi :) With the taiyaki cart decor and the many Nutella jars on display, the cafe is cute and cozy! It really is as their cups say: "the best bubble tea in town"

    I just came here on a whim and I am so glad I did. It's delicious and the two girls there were very helpful and nice. Great customer service. I left very happy. Thank you to the two girls :) I wish I got their names. But if you're in the area and want ice cream, I definitely recommend!

    10/10 sweet treat before heading home. I got the matcha and horchata with a Nutella filled waffle! Definitely worth the stop.

    YUMMY AND DELICIOUS wish they gave more chocolate sometimes, but probably for the best they don't since it could be a health hazard, LOL, I'm such a sucker for chocolate fhekfhskbs I love this place, I go every chance I get. Taiyaki here is a delicacy, they prepare it in front of you, and are pretty quick! Also, yummy taro ice cream. It's so cute inside and aesthetic!

    Taro (on the bottom) and matcha both non-dairy with chewy Taiyaki
    Devita R.

    So glad they have non-dairy ice cream! The matcha ice cream was so good, not too sweet either. The taro was a tat too sweet but overall they're pretty good. Hubby got the snow island which was delicious. The Taiyaki was super chewy and tasty The place is very nice and clean, the young lady that helped us was super nice. We are super happy

    THE BEST !!! Literally so so delicious. The service was amazing and very fast. The shop is so cute and clean. Loved it !!

    I was actually in line right behind this customer(LIZABETH) as she wrote this review after, and I…read morehad a completely different experience. From the moment she walked in, she seemed frustrated and was speaking to the employees with a lot of attitude. The staff, however, stayed calm, respectful, and professional the entire time. They handled the situation really well and were very kind to me when it was my turn. Customer service goes both ways. The team didn't deserve the tone they were given, and I think they did their best to accommodate her while still following closing procedures. When I ordered, everything was made correctly and the staff was friendly. The only thing I noticed was that they were starting to clean up since it was close to closing time, which is pretty normal for any business. Overall, my experience was positive and I'll definitely continue coming here.

I arrived tonight at 8:28 p.m. at this location for the first time, treating myself to Nékter. I can make this at home, but this is a gift I'm giving myself. My money, my time, my gas, and my effort showing up at this business mean something and are worth a lot to me. To be told the second I walked in that they had too many online orders and weren't taking any more in-person orders, while the floors were soaking wet and all the chairs were flipped on top of the tables, was not just insulting but a clear message that I have zero value to this business. First-time customer and last-time customer. If you plan to close an hour, or even 40 minutes, before your posted closing time, then change your closing time to reflect that. I ended up going to Juice It Up at 8:40 p.m., and they happily took my order with a smile. What a difference it makes to be treated humanely.

Juice It Up is my go-to (as opposed to Jamba Juice, which is more foo foo smoothies). Prices are on the high side, true, but I have a juicer at home and buying fresh veggies, citrus, parsley, etc al., that adds up fast, so the prices are actually fair for periodic visits. Otherwise, there are zero frills at any location and by design most are take-out oriented. Occasionally they're backed up with online and walk-in orders, but it's the overall quality that matters most to me.

Second, we order our drinks, they were not good and order was not what we expected. My wife explained this to the server and the young lady continued to berate her. It was very hot in the store, no ac on, very odd ambiance. Employee's there are highly unstable, unskilled, no professionalism, are beyond disrespectful and do not show case respect for others. Whoever the manager of this place is, should be fired. Conclusion of this situation--owners need to train their staff to be more disciplined and professional. Ensure they are treating customers with respect. This should be taken seriously. Owners need to understand that they are not being proactive with their employees. Please evaluate your employees and how you run your business. Zero out of ZERO! Disgusting behavior. I would not recommend this location to anyone. I'd recommend another. Stay away from here. Poor customer service and lack of customer care.

There were plenty of seats and the cashiers were polite. The place was clean, and well-kept. It's definitely more of a casual, and convenient stop rather than a super aesthetic or trendy place that you go to for photos. In terms of food/drinks we first ordered a mango pineapple smoothie. I will say the smoothie was super yummy and I would give it a 5/5. I would come back just to try their other smoothie flavors! We also ordered an açaí bowl and I would give the açaí bowl a 3/5. I felt that the granola was not super crunchy and it was borderline slightly stale. While I love when places put a lot of granola, I felt that there was too much granola compared to actual açaí. I also felt that the bananas and strawberries were too ripe for my liking. However it was a decent açaí-just not something super special or great. Finally, the sandwich was yummy but definitely a bit burnt. Didn't complain but something that the employees can work on in the future. The sandwich would have been way better if it wasn't burnt. Overall, a solid place with plenty of good food/drinks choices. Nothing mind-blowing or extremely spectacular. The smoothie, however, was very delicious and I would come back just to try their other smoothie flavors/drinks.
