    Matcha Latte
    Marissa D.

    Matcha flavor itself was not bad but the syrup used to sweeten tasted very artificial. The drink didn't taste as high quality with it and was slightly too overpowered by that sweetener.

    Been craving Matcha and this was such a nice, refreshing treat! They are located on the corner of Larimer & 16th ST, across the street from The Cheesecake Factory. If you'd like Matcha and like it well-made, this is it! I really appreciated that a lot of the options were dairy-free and they could accommodate with substitutions if requested.

    Cute little matcha shop nestled on a walking path downtown. With friendly service and a diverse menu, this place is a must try! I love matcha and couldn't decide between a drink or their matcha soft serve. I ended up getting the matcha soft serve in a fish cone lined with Nutella. It was so delicious!

    Strawberry and Matcha softserve
    Kevin W.

    A very solid addition of the 16th Strip Mall. The softserve is smooth and very creamy. The matcha and strawberry flavor goes hand in hand like Kenana and Kel. Perfect for those hot sunny days, you can't go wrong with Ichigo. It's one of the best softserves you can get in the Denver area.

    I think I've been here 4 times in the past 5 days. OBSESSED! I love being in different neighborhoods and getting to try different places like this! I was cat-sitting in this neighborhood and once I discovered this place, I had to keep going back! I love the iced Yuzu-matcha and I get boba added! So delicious! I had that thrice and then on my last day, I tried the strawberry iced match with added boba! It was so light, cool/crisp and refreshing and most importantly not overly sweet at ALL. Perfectly balanced! If I get more work in this part of town, I will definitely be back repeatedly!

    Fish cone taiyaki

    Excellent matcha! I love that they don't make super sweet sugar bomb drinks. My taro matcha was barely sweet which I appreciated so much! Service was friendly and surprisingly quick. When I arrived there was no line but it did quickly form behind me. I couldn't resist the fish cone and loved it! I got the strawberry and matcha swirl - the sweetness of the strawberry and earthiness of matcha was a perfect balance for my frozen treat. The taiyaki is actually hollowed out with Nutella spread inside, and it comes with a mini macaroon (doesn't fit the Japanese theme). Can't wait to return again & again!

    Swirl with Fish Cone
    Vatsal S.

    This is instagram food... but it will still make you full Flavors are diluted and I question the ingredients since it made me too full after only eating a bit of it. The fish cone was actually very good with nutella inside but the actual swirl was mediocre

    This is a cute little spot located down from Larimer street. It's been on my list for a while but it's harder to visit because I'm not in downtown a lot except for shows. We came an hour before they closed and barely beat the sudden rush. When we were here, there were 2 people working so it took a hot minute to get our order. They gave me a free fish cone for waiting. It's a really cute little stand and they were playing chill Japanese pop music. On a side note, please educate and teach your children to not hit someone else's decor. I watched two girls continuously jump and knock the koi fish and their mom didn't do anything. We got the strawberry matcha soft serve and a black sesame drink. The soft serve is some of the best I've had in Denver. It's not too sweet but a nice balance between the strawberry and matcha. The black sesame drink can be skipped. It was a very faint sesame flavor and it tasted watered down milk. I would come just for the ice cream.

    Matcha Oat Latte
    Sunnie W.

    Was strolling down 16th St Mall and came across a cute looking matcha shack. They had a cute and not too extensive menu. If I hadn't just had a rather large meal, I would've gotten their taiyaki soft serve. Opted for an Matcha Oat Latte $8.5 (.50 extra for oat). 4.5/5, it has a very strong matcha flavor. It was a little too sweet for my liking and wasn't fully sifted through but the most matcha like matcha I've had in some time! (They don't skimp on their matcha). We got the drink quite quickly ~3 mins. Since it's a small shack you can see them making it. Nearby there's plenty of seating and we opted for the fish chairs (not pictured)

    Matcha latte

    Came here to try the matcha latte since I was around the Union Station area. It is a small little matcha stand the size of a little booth. Their main focus are the matcha drinks and soft serves. The workers were very friendly and helpful. It is on the corner of 16th street where the shuttle stop is. They were playing Japanese music and it felt like a little Japan for a minute. The matcha latte with oatmilk was pretty mid and there were still lots of matcha chunks at the bottom of the drink. It was a hot day when I came as well and I thought the drink was not adequately cold. They added very little ice. I should have tried their soft serve instead.

    We were just on a stroll in Denver when we came across this cute little Japanese milk tea shop and we're so happy we got to try it! The menu options were adorable and aesthetically pleasing. It was tempting not to try every thing in the menu. The workers were also very friendly and sweet! I wish we had something like this in Chicago because I would've definitely been a regular! My recommendation: The new matcha espresso latte was smooth and creamy. It has the perfect amount of sweetness! The espresso gave me just the right amount of energy for the rest of the day. The cheddar taiyaki was amazing! Very cheesy and melty. We were considering ordering another one because it was so good. No sauce needed! We also got to try the banana latte which had an interesting taste. It wasn't the artificial banana flavor that we were expecting, I didn't like it as much as the matcha espresso latte but my fiancé did so to each their own!

    Taro Matcha and Oat Milk Matcha Latte

    I mean we were blow away! It is just the cutest matcha shop! The staff was super nice and the drinks came out fairly quickly. They have a large menu and we had fun picking from it. The drinks were absolutely delicious and we would highly recommend. The matcha flavor really comes through and the flavor added on a perfect combo. Their soft serve looked delicious.

    Strawberry and match in a fish waffle
    Erin M.

    This food stand has a good variety of boba drinks and ice cream. The matcha strawberry swirl was so refreshing. The fish waffle cone was a good sweet pair with the ice cream. The service was quick. The place is unassuming, but very easy to access being on the free bus route. I'm so glad we got off the bus to try it. So many people on the street stopped me to ask where I had gotten the dessert because it was so cute and looked delicious.

    They ran out of matcha so none of their matcha food or drinks were available. We went a few hours after they opened.

    Delicious empanadas. I had the spicy chicken and the spinach and cheese one and they were so good…read more The owner also is so friendly and welcoming.

    Let's get this out of the way right now: I LOVE food carts! Ever since I was a wee lad getting a…read morehotdog from a vendor at the ballgame, I have enjoyed getting my food from outside of brick and mortar restaurants. Instead of a lemonade stand, my friends and I had a sidewalk food stand, where we sold pizza and hot pretzels to our neighbors. And now I work in downtown Denver, and I could go to a food cart everyday if I wanted to. So I've walked by Empanadas Argentina's blue umbrella a number of times, always on my way to someplace else and always thinking to myself "I've got to try that cart!" So I did. Today. And it's delicious. They have 4 kinds of empanadas: Spicy Chicken, Beef, Ham & Cheese, and Spinach with White Sauce. He was out of Spicy Chicken (damn you guy that just bought them all from under me!) but was cooking more up in his cart's oven. So I opted for the 3 empanadas for $5, and got 1 of each of the remaining choices. You have to get at least 3. I could probably have eaten 3 more. They aren't that big. The beef was by far the best. Flavorful, kinda cheesy with an outstanding buttery yet flaky crust. My second favorite was the Spinach. I was expecting more of an alfredo sauce for the white sauce, but it wasn't nearly as rich. Just enough sauce to give the spinach creaminess, yet little enough to not overwhelm the spinach. Same flaky crust. Finally, the Ham & Cheese. Also good, but it just seemed like a better quality/tasting hot pocket to me. Of course, it had that signature flaky crust. So if you're walking down 16th st. and have a hankering for a quick bite, grab some empanadas from Empanadas Argentina. You won't be sorry.

While we sat to enjoy the ice cream, the line got really long. The two gals at the counter were polite and friendly while working diligently to give samples and help customers! Great place to have ice cream. They have a lot of seating and a slide which was a hit with the kids. No ice cream was being made at the time we came in because it was later in the evening.

    We ended up visiting Little Man Ice Cream three different times during our trip to Denver, so I…read moreguess that says a lot by itself. The location is awesome and right in the middle of a really fun area. We could walk there from where we were staying and there were tons of restaurants, parks, and other places to explore nearby. The line looked absolutely massive when we first got there and honestly almost scared us away, but don't let it fool you. They move people through so fast that we barely even noticed the wait. They had live music going while we were there and plenty of outdoor seating, which made it a really fun place to just hang out and enjoy dessert. The ice cream was delicious with lots of flavors to choose from. The sorbet was also really, really good. But the real winner for me was the milkshake. It was easily one of the best milkshakes I've ever had. My biggest complaint is the milkshake only comes in one size. There isn't even a kids size. A 20oz milkshake is just too much for some adults, let alone a kid. I really think they should offer a couple different sizes because I'd honestly order them even more often. We also tried one of the slushies that's made with the sorbet and their "refreshing" lemonade. The sorbet itself was fantastic, but the lemonade tasted like plain Simply Lemonade, and you could definately taste it in the finished drink. If they made a quick homemade lemonade instead, I think it would take those slushies over the moon... kinda fitting for Little Man's cow theme haha. Overall, this place was one of our favorite stops in RiNo. We came back three seperate times during our stay and I'd absolutely come back again on our next trip to Denver. Hopefully by then they'll have a smaller milkshake option so I don't have to feel quite so guilty ordering one every visit.
