This spot is unique in that it serves SE Asian flavors, stuff you really don't see common in other Bingsu joints. Ordered the Lod-Chong and it's made fresh with string-shaped shavings that were delicate and soft. Perfect level of sweetness, solid portion for two people and reminded me of Vietnamese Banh Lot. Only con: the toppings are on the smaller side so you have to ration. One major downside is it's only open on weekends and can get busy fast, so grab a table first then go up to order. read more

DD Sweet House reminds me of the many asian desserts spots in socal. The menu includes unique flavors such as butterfly pea(I still have no idea what it tastes like but the blue color is too fun), pandan, matcha, Thai tea and so much more. I can only review the soft serve, however, but am excited to come back for the bingsoo and drinks. The soft serve was refreshing and tasted great with the taiyaki. At the bottom of the taiyaki is sweet blue rice which was a nice surprise. My only wish is that they have smaller portions for the bingsoo. I really wanted to try it but the portion is meant for 2-3 people and $15 would be a lot for one person to drop on a dessert. read more

Drinks: - The iced matcha coconut was on the sweeter side, it's good but nothing to write home about. I was looking forward to seeing how the coconut and matcha balance each other out but I didn't taste much of the coconut Food: - The mango sticky rice is one of the most popular items on their menu. The sticky rice has a bright blue color to it, which threw me off at first since it looked almost like plastic. The dish is sweet, I had to take my time on this one so I can avoid the sugar rush - The bungsu here is good, I liked it much more than the sticky rice. It's silky and fluffy, really easy to eat. The texture gave a pleasant mouthfeel Ambience: - Very blue - Sitting on their furniture made me feel like royalty. They curated some statement pieces for seating. The seats may be a bit stiff, but I didn't mind it - The place gave off movie set vibes Overall: I think this is decent dessert spot, pretty inside, the menu has a lot of different things to choose from. The service was great. The people taking our orders was very helpful because we took some time to decide what we wanted to order. I don't feel compelled to revisit, but I'm certainly not against it read more

DD Sweet House is located in Sellwood and is a cute dessert shop. Parking is a bit difficult here as there's no designated parking lot, so you have to find street parking. Their menu is pretty big, offering a variety of bingsoo and drink choices. Service here was kind but a bit slow when I went (it took about 20 minutes for our bingsoo to come out). We got the taro bingsoo and the matcha with salted cream. I loved the bingsoo! It was a new texture--with strings--but it was really good! It came with toppings and condensed milk to pour over, which made it even better. The matcha drink was really good, but I think the salted cream was very heavy on the cream cheese (but that's a personal preference thing, my friend loved this drink!). Overall, great Asian dessert spot in Portland! read more

I have been waiting for this place to open up because they have bingsu, then of course, I forgot about it after it opened up. Finally, came here on a Sunday to try it out. Their main staples are bingsu, Taiyaki Soft Serve Ice Cream and drinks. There were 10 different flavors of bingsu to pick from with a price point of either $13.50 or $15.00. Some with fresh fruits while other just have some type of toppings on the side. We opt'd for the taro as we were craving a taro flavored bingsu $13.50. The item came out looking exactly like the photo, no false advertisement there. haha. However, for my one bingsu, it look over 25+ minutes as they only had two machines. That's probably why they have games for you to play to pass time, but you better not come here in a hurry because the wait is long. The bingsu presentation was cute and it tasted creamy. The portion of the toppings were really small, very disproportionate when mixed into my shaved ice. You know what I really would like to know? What were the toppings? I mean I couldn't find on the menu (not listed), but if I had to guess: mochi balls, taro paste and colored condense milk? It was okay, did not love it, but it was fun to try. Overall, the bingsu was quite sweet; needed to water afterwards. Place is cute and clean. No parking lot, street parking only. Can be crowded inside the store as they have limited tables. One cool thing: color changing spoons when cold! Woohoo! Nice touch, DD Sweet House. That was a nice surprise. Take cash or card. read more

Came back to try more items on their menu and we ordered: Iced butterly pea tea A soft serve Hokkaido Mango bingsu, Thai tea bingsu and melon bingsu Matcha Mont Blanc soft serve. If you're a melon or mango fan you have to get their bingsu!!! The melon and mango was perfectly ripe so it didn't even need the extra sweetness from the condensed milk. The matcha Mont Blanc is an acquired taste it's paste-ty and matcha note is very strong and the Hokkaido soft serve is different from other Hokkaido flavor I've had, flavoring wise tasted like powdered milk and wasn't as creamy and soft but still very good. Everything we ordered was great and I'm glad that I was able to discover DD sweet house! ( already planning my next visit...) read more

This review solely for the butterfly pea shaved ice with mango sticky rice! I thought it was so unique and not something you could get anywhere else. The same goes for a lot of the other shaved ice flavors, where I've never seen a lot of them on other menus. We came with 20 minutes to closing which we felt bad about, but the people working there were so friendly and made us feel so comfortable! The space is large and open, wiyh cute details and decorations - great for photos! Now the shaved ice was super tasty. I liked the texture a lot - it was really creamy, not super icy, and the mango and sticky rice were the perfect amount of sweetness. It wasn't overly sweet, but more than the butterfly pea flavor so it was a great combination. Portion wise I wish there was more mango, but overall the start of the show was the butterfly pea flavor and shaved ice. read more

There is shaved ice and there is "bingsu" to quote them "More than just shaved ice, we call it "Silk Thread Bingsu." The texture is soft and delicate, enhanced by the aroma and intensity of the tea flavor, making you forget any previous shaved ice experience." Trust me all other shaved oce is have had is long forgotten!! The mango sweet sticky rice Bingsu was my fav - the sweet sticky rice was the best and a perfect accompaniment to bingsu read more

Great dessert place that's in the neighborhood with friendly service and delicious treats for you. They have coffee, tea, milk, tea with Boba and sweet treats like Bingso, etc. I ordered the taiyaki fish with custard pastry. I really liked it and I'm glad that it's made in house and not imported from somewhere else. The bingso it is really good too and I recommend getting the mango sticky rice one as well. The drinks are flavorful and delicious so you really can't go wrong with the orders you have here. Although I recommend getting the fish that's stuck in the ice cream cup. read more

Cool new spot that has a good variety of treats. We ordered the butterfly pea with mango sticky rice bingsu (covered with coconut sauce), taiyaki mixed (matcha and Thai tea), and a mango sticky rice slushy. I liked the taiyaki mixed as it had some red bean and sticky rice inside, which was unique. The bingsu was easy to eat, but I think it was missing something. The mango slushy was good but definitely filling. It also had some sticky rice in it. read more

If you want shaved ice/bingsu, keep moving on to another place cause you're wasting your time driving here. They said they're open Saturday and Sunday 12-7? Nope... This place is NEVER open.. This is the second time we have specifically driven here on an 'open' weekend day @2pm. They apparently don't want any business. Here's some advice DD, you need to open your business to make money. read more

I came across DD Sweet House on instagram and had to come check out their Bingsu! Everything is super flavorful, portions are generous, and price isn't too bad. Around $13 for the bingsu, around 6 for the iced strawberry matcha. The staff were all super sweet and the building is clean and well thought out. I will be coming back for sure! read more

Everything was so SWEET. You cannot taste anything else because the sugar overpowers everything. The concept of bingsu with small sides is cool but besides being aesthetically pleasing, it's not that good. It didn't go together and the sides/toppings were quite literally just sides. It didn't complement the bingsoo and overall just wasn't cohesive. We also got a Thai tea and it was literally all ice. read more

This dessert spot has an adorable blue-themed atmosphere, which makes for a nice and relaxing visit. It wasn't too busy, which was a plus. However, the flavors were a bit off balance--either too bitter or overly sweet. The black milk tea had hard boba, and even with normal sugar, the tea was quite bitter. From the bingsu series, the fruit was fresh, and the finely shaved ice helped coat each bite well with condensed milk. However, this also made it overwhelmingly sweet, with little flavor beyond the condensed milk. read more

On a rainy day - this was a perfect place to hang out and enjoy cold dessert! A perfect treat for being indoors! We chose two items - omg! It's a meal on its own! Two "shovels" up for the mango shaved ice - came with fresh mango pieces, the mango puree and condensed milk - pour it all over and to die for the combination between sweetness and the tangy mango pieces - perfect! Then the Vietnamese ice cream with the lychee jelly and mochi topping that was found on the bottom with the purple ube cream topping was a treat on its own! For 2 items - these could be shared with more than 3 people!!! Loved it! read more

This is the lightest and creamiest bingsu I've had in Portland. The way they shave their ice is unique and it has a nice texture. The strawberry was a little tart and the condensed milk added some sweetness. This dessert spot is on the sweeter side and they don't have milk alternatives. This spot has nice huge windows so it's bright on the inside and there was a decent amount of seating. I came on a Sunday afternoon around 2-3pm, so it wasn't too busy and I got my order in 10-15 mins. There was a rush after 3pm though! read more

Honestly I love the modern look of this place. You can tell they've spent a lot of time to make all the items on the menu. The toppings probably take forever to make. I recently got their taiyaki and stringed ube. The taiyaki itself was different in the sense it wasn't the crunch I'd like but the softness and honey/vanilla fragrant won me over as I continued biting into it. I would highly recommend the swirl of the vanilla/brown sugar ice cream. 7.5-8/10 The stringed ube was great, texture wise was very different than what I was used to or excepted. We had it with egg pudding and cereal as recommended. 8/10 Perfectly sweetened Thank you for being in Sellwood. :) read more

First time trying out this place. We got the mango sticky rice bingsu and iced matcha strawberry. The shaved ice, the sticky rice, and the milk pour were all sweet. The texture of shaved ice was soft and light and easily melts in your mouth. The bingsu's are pretty big, you can share one between 2-3 people. The matcha itself was good however it was overpowered by the strawberry puree and I felt like I was drinking straight sugar. We came in on Sunday afternoon and the place was pretty empty. Even with it being slow, it took them about ~20-25min for our drink but we got our bingsu pretty fast. The place is big and spacious with a lot of seatings. If you like very sweet desserts then I recommend this place read more

Came back again with my friends to try other things on the menu, we went around 6:30-7pm and it was quite busy. Most, if not all the seats were taken but we were able to find seating (which was nice). After we ordered we decided to played dominos to pass the time. I would love to see more game options like uno, deck of cards, guess who and etc... We ordered: Melon bingsu - it was nice to have the melon pieces with the bingsu and the condensed milk was melon infused. Thai tea bingsu - came with small pearls, condensed milk that was Thai tea infused and with Roti (salted, flaky flat bread). The thai tea bingsu was like having the Thai tea drink but in shaved ice form and with the roti, It was a good mix of sweet and salty. Mango sticky rice slushy - the mango tastes fresh and sweet, there was sticky rice at the bottom of the cup. As the rice is sitting in the drink you would think it'll get hard or mushy but no it stayed the same consistency. Very much liked this drink. Iced butterfly pea tea - got it the last time I came and fell in love, so decided to get it again We finished everything we ordered and even craved more at the end of it all. read more

This place is spectacular!!! So many flavors to choose from. You never know what to expect when you take a bite out of something. For example, the taro ice cream looks strawberry but it is more coconut-vanilla. We LOVED the melon bingsu. It comes with actual fresh melon! We had never had this before and we're in love! The interior is fun and clean! And there are really comfortable booths to sit in. Can't recommend enough for a family outing! read more

Have tried to go there several times and they have been iced every time, even during the times they are listed as open.

This place is delicious! The way they make shaved ice look like noodles is amazing. The flavors are delicious and not too sweet. It looks like a lot to eat at first but ends up being just perfect. Service is always good they're very nice and accommodating. I like the relaxing blues they have in the cafe makes for a calm ambiance. Will definitely go back when I can. read more

Adorable dessert cafe with a very friendly staff. They were out of soft serve flavors and only had vanilla - ok! But the vanilla wasn't vanilla, I'm not sure it was even dairy. The flavor had a single note of sugar and chemicals. The color was a translucent yellow-white. The bottom of the cone had "red bean" and I think blue sticky rice? One lick and in the garbage. A $6 mistake. Artificial, in a bad way. The shaved coconut shaved ice cream didn't fare much better. The texture is refreshing, but flavor has a single-note and was very thin. The accompanying sticky rice was good. The mango was unripe. Service was very prompt and kind. I support small businesses, sadly I won't be back. read more

The shop interior is clean and nice, even the restroom! The plastic spoon they have is pretty cool that changes from blue to purple when it comes in contact with the bingsu. 5/5 would come again. read more

Waited over an hour (yes.. should've known earlier) for two taiyaki mixed cups. Went up to ask since I saw people that order before us get similar things already and they said they didn't see our order that they must've missed it. They offered to make them and at that point I just wanted my money back. Super excited to try it. Definitely won't be back. Sad. ALSO, while I was waiting trying to get their attention I heard a customer ask how long the wait time would be and they whispered an hour. That's something they should give people a heads up for when they place an order don't you think? read more

I was really excited to try this place. When we got there there was a bit of a line as expected with a new opening. We waited for over an hour then realized that people who ordered the same thing after us had were getting their orders before us. When we went up to the counter and asked we were told they didn't see our order and must of missed it. We chose not to stay and wait any longer and asked for our money back. Disappointing. Will not be back. read more
