S1. Mango Sticky Rice with Coconut Milk
Maggie H.

This is my first time at Icy Melon, which is where the MangoMango in the Hmart plaza was originally before it moved next to the Lua and Kira Revolving Sushi. There may be limited parking near the restaurant but the plaza parking lot is large in size. The menu has a pretty good variety of desserts from crepe cakes to hot stuff. Service is straightforward because you order on the kiosk and then take a seat. Someone will bring the dessert to you, but I'm not sure how they know which order goes to what table. I got the mango sticky rice, which was light and yummy. The foam made from coconut milk really tied the dish all together with the fresh mango and rice at the bottom. The rice should have been warmer almost hot in order to bring it all together. It was lukewarm at best and more grainy than other places. We got the signature crepe with strawberries and banana with melon ice cream. I haven't had melon ice cream in a while so it was a pleasant treat. It does taste kind of artificial esp with the color. The crepe was thin, but the Nutella filling was thick and overpowering. So the crepe was overwhelmingly chocolately. Maybe go for vanilla ice cream to balance that.

E1. Coconut Mango Smoothie
Steph R.

Cute dessert bar with a lot of different options. On the menu they have ice creams, bubble teas, sago, crepes, and hot teas. The cashier was polite and quick and they also have a self checkout kiosk. There's a lot on the menu that I've never tried and would love to come back to try. I got a coconut mango drink that was both sweet and refreshing.

We stopped by Icy Melon to get some chocolate sundae for take out. The store is spotless, very nice clean interior with lots of decorative items. Menu has all sorts of dessert items like waffle, fruity ice bowl, sticky sweet rice, crepe, smoothie and tea. There's a kiosk you order yourself. We got our order within five minutes. It was in a beautiful watermelon print thermal bag. Very impressive that they give out such nice bags instead of cheap plastic bags. The chocolate sundae was delicious. There was two scoops with Oreo crumbles and a wafer. My five year old was thrilled to have the whole thing by herself.

M9. Lychee Green Tea
Barbara S.

Food was great . Got a fruit bowl with ice cream and lychee green tea. Both were delicious. The atmosphere and service are ok... I'm not sure if the bowl is the correct name

E5. Coconut Cantaloupe Smoothie
Jessica Z.

I still agree with my previous review however this is the second time they got my order wrong. The first time was a year or two ago as they made the wrong smoothie. Today, they forgot to add boba when I specifically request and paid for boba. It was a to-go order with three drinks and had left before seeing there was no boba. I would still go back in the future but be warned that you should double check your order is complete and accurate before you leave.

The fruit dishes here are so refreshing. It feels like you are getting healthier the more you eat it but it's also a sweet treat! Would definitely grab something again if i'm in the area. The service was quick and timely. It was pretty empty when i went there but it's really clean in there which is always a good sign.

H1. Black Sesame Paste Soup
Elizabeth S.

It was ok. The interior is very nice and they took over Mango Mango, which was originally in this location. I think there is new ownership. Service was fast. We only tried one thing and it was underwhelming. It tastes like zhi ma hu, which is something easy to make in Chinese culture with some sesame paste powder. It also reminded my friend of Chinese tang yuan, which are soup balls with black sesame inside. I would have preferred tang yuan. The taste was very mild, though I did appreciate that they had these mochi balls inside.

So this place used to be a mango mango dessert shop. We came in the middle of the day and there was only one other group. We were sat down immediately and then the waiter went to the cash register to have a meeting with other employees about shifts for the week. It went on for a while so we had to go to the register to order our food. We got our food very fast after that. The menu is very similar to mango mango- if not the same. All the same dishes. I was disappointed that the mango chunks seemed overripe and not fresh. That was very unappetizing for me. The place itself is very spacious and bright. It is located in a large plaza with other Asian restaurants.

Sign for mango mango is gone
Hank C.

A replacement for the Mango Mango at this location - similar desserts, but not the same amount of mango or care that goes into the items. Menu was a little difficult to decipher ingredients in case you have allergies, so ask the servers. The sign outside is gone, not yet replaced. Two locations - Hoboken and this one, so not sure if the one in Hoboken was also a Mango Mango or if it was just an Icy Melon before. The sign inside still has the mangomango as a wifi password, too.

C2. Mango Crepe Cake  this was alright but ive had better
alaina l.

the food was alright to be honest, i was trying it because i was in the area but i can find better desserts at other places, the dessert i got looked waaayyy different than the picture online so i was not satisfied. the service was okay to be honest, maybe because there's no AC it felt icky in there, 5/10 it was good for a first try but i wouldn't go back

Kat J.

Great place with absolutely delicious food and beautiful decor. Loved the mango shaved ice and the lychee green tea. Service is prompt and convenient

C2. Mango Crepe Cake
Neil M.

Mango crepe cake was perfect. Exactly what I needed after Schezuan food (I probably didn't need more food but you only live once, as the saying goes).

Crepe
ChiChi A.

So this place definitely needs to get a bigger location because there was an actual line outside waiting to be seated. Sooooo, after having the desert for the first time I totally understand why people decided to wait. The desert is absolutely delicious. It's made when you order, the fruit is fresh, ice cream is phenomenal and dough is indescribable. My only issue was the mountain of whip cream but honestly that's my preference. Definitely check this place out!!!!!!!!

After selecting our breakfast options, which would be made easier with a flow chart on the menu, we enjoyed some fine coffee and an interrogation on our comings and goings. When they learned we were on our way to Fredericksburg and we engaged in Civil War topics, they must have heard the bell for the end of history class. They did keep checking on us. The eggs and sausage were fine. The bacon could have been cooked more and, thou we asked for onion and peppers, they were not added. I'm not sure how much it would have helped - they needed some zest. In the end, of the 4 breakfast places we had the pleasure of eating at over the Memorial Day weekend, this was the best.

Meat was soft and delicious. The churro waffle was so fluffy and not too sweet. Perfect balance. Farmer's platter was good. My only note is they didn't add any butter to my toast, something I usually expect when I order breakfast plates. But since they charged me extra for ordering some garlic mayonnaise, I assumed they'd charge me if I asked for butter. Staff was attentive and kind, upsold us to the max. Which was a good and bad thing. The coffee we ordered, our server upsold us on flavored syrups and cold foam but did not disclose it'd be extra. Didn't complain since the coffee was delicious, but just keep that in mind if you try this place!

A few logistical tips: while there is street parking, a public lot is conveniently located right across the street. The dining room is quite intimate with only about ten tables, and since they don't seem to take reservations, I recommend arriving early or being prepared for a wait. If you don't want to wait, they do offer takeout! Another suggestion is to browse their menu online before you arrive, the selection is extensive! We showed up without a game plan and needed several minutes just to decide because there were so many tempting choices! Luckily, our waiter was incredibly patient and helpful, answering every question we had. Once we decided, the real fun began. Every single item, and I'm not exaggerating, was phenomenal! We started with the fresh squeezed orange juice, which was sweet and perfectly portioned, along with a vanilla latte and a cappuccino. Both were classic, rich, and creamy. For the main course, we chose the "Chill + Qill It" Chilaquiles, which featured traditional corn tortillas topped with cotija cheese, avocado, pink sour cream, eggs, and your choice of protein. We also tried the Parkside Classic Sliders; the chicken was exceptionally crispy yet tender and juicy, served with eggs on a brioche bun. We opted to upgrade to the truffle fries, which were delicious! Although our sliders accidentally came with pickles, the staff was so kind and immediately offered to remake the dish or swap out the bun. Finally, we had the Grilled Chicken Egg Ranchero. It was like a breakfast version of nachos, loaded with beans, peppers, onions, an egg, those same crispy tortillas, and more of that signature pink cream! We couldn't leave without satisfying our sweet tooth, so we finished with the Cinnamon Roll French Toast. It tasted exactly like a fresh cinnamon roll, the glaze was incredible, and the bread was perfectly crisp on the outside while remaining fluffy inside. I honestly cannot wait to go back and work my way through the rest of the kitchen's creations. This restaurant is a absolute must-visit for their unique combinations and superb flavors!

I'm really not one to leave a bad review anywhere, but this was just crazy. I really hope we were there on an off day because the place is cool and food was decent, but we just had an awful experience.
