    You're meant to stand and wait here until someone comes to help you

    Pretty good selection of paletas and helado! Lots of flavors to choose from and you can ask for samples of helado. I enjoyed the pepino, champy with mango, and coconut flavors! Wish you could get multiple flavors in a small cup though, I think it's limited to one flavor for a small cup. [[HIGHLIGHT]]There are tables to sit at and the bathrooms are clean![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Overall, I'd visit again to try different flavors!

    First time here since they opened not too long ago. Came with a couple friends for some desserts! There's kinda a lot going on since there's so much to choose from. But I wish I knew Spanish as there was a slight language barrier, but the ladies were super nice and we figured it out. This place has frescas, paletas to mangonadas and even some snacks. This location is where the OG Shin Shin was on S Tacoma Way in the same strip mall as Pho Tai and Makchang Drama. The parking can be a little difficult if that strip mall is busy.

    Huge menu selection of scooped ice cream, paleta ice cream on a stick (popsicles), fruit cups, drinks and snacks - I was so impressed by all the variety and it was hard to narrow down my choices! I'm super interested by the tortas sandwiches and would love to come back and try that. Most pictures feature their paletas, but I was excited to also find out they had a very large variety of ice cream flavors. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It was a fun experience seeing everything they had.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]The interior is super clean and there's a fair amount of seating.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I found the prices a bit higher than I would have guessed. That said, still highly recommend stopping in for dessert the next time you are on South Tacoma Way, and excited to bring more of my friends/family to check it out!

    Really love this place the day I tried it I went back the same day with my husband and then a week later I went back and bought some friends with me. Everyone is very attentive. The food is really good and the service is really good. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The ambience is really good no reason not to give it a try.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    Excellent quality of ice cream. Great palettes and amazing fruit drinks. You can expect a line when you go here.

    They attend people quick and have good service. They're palletas and Tostilocos are the best!

    This place looks brand new. There are so many flavors of plaleta. They also have good elote and you can get a bag of Cheetos with cheese. They workers are all great and responsive. I highly recommend and will be coming back regularly

    Delicious cool, savory, and sweet treats to cater to any pallet! My family and I came after dinner to get something sweet and ended up getting some ice cream and paletas to take home. The ice cream was super creamy and generous with their fillings. I couldn't complain. The flavors are endless ranging from creamy oreos, Abuelita's chocolate, mango with chamoy, kiwi, fruity pebbles, cheesecake, or yogurt. They also offer aguas frescas, mangoneadas, and savory snacks such as nachos, elote, takis con queso, and much more. The facility is pretty big with many small tables around for a quick bite. Staff members are friendly and helpful. The parking lot can be tight for some cars, but plentiful. They layout of the place seems a bit complicated as most people like to eat with their eyes and check out the vast flavors they offer. I'd recommend a large sign with flavors if they can so folks that are waiting in line can view that first and the service can be sped up and more organized. Other than my two cents, it's a great place for your sweet tooth!

    Doritos snack

    I love this place! I got the mango sorbet and you can actually see the mango fibers in it since it's that real! I love the flavor of the guava sorbet but I didn't enjoy all the guava seeds in it. There's a huge assortment of flavors like Mexican hot chocolate ice cream, Mexican candy flavored ice cream, and even basic Oreo ice cream. We also got the Doritos snack bag with cucumber, mango, and other items I didn't know. But I think next time I'll just stick to the ice creams or maybe I ordered the wrong chip bag snack.

    We stopped by Coffee Kitchen about two weeks ago while driving back home, and it turned out to be…read moresuch a pleasant surprise. Since we were passing by and totally new to the town and surrounding, we just google/yelp but we are so glad that we picked this one over others. The owner/barista was incredibly kind and welcoming. We both have specific dietary preferences and usually prefer drinks with very low sugar. She took the time to listen carefully and recommended something that would suit our taste. I honestly couldn't believe how perfectly she balanced the drink--it had just the right flavor with minimal sugar, exactly the way we like it. What really stood out was her hospitality. The shop itself was neat, organized, and very clean, which immediately made the experience feel comfortable. When she handed us our coffees, she made sure to check that everything was according to our taste and preference. That personal touch meant a lot. Their **menu also looked very unique**, with some really interesting drink options that you don't usually see at typical coffee places. If we ever drive through that route again, we will absolutely make it a point to stop at **Coffee Kitchen**. I truly feel the town is lucky to have small businesses and people like this who care so much about their customers. Highly recommend stopping by if you're in the area!

It's a gorgeous marriage between a croissant and a butter roll seasoned with just the right amount of salt. As I was leaving, the owner gave me a bag of salt bread croutons dusted with cinnamon sugar. The sweet potato brioche loaf was pretty solid, too. Pass on the matcha cookie. I was bummed that the coffee bingsu is no longer a menu item.

I tried them in the past apparently because I have photos associated to that visit (even bought a dozen). I obviously didn't remember until I started writing this review. First the location is pretty easy to reach. Small strip mall store front off Portland Ave. I walked in and there were two people ahead of me but no seating and hardly room to view the selection. There is a plastic COVID screen still up and pictures of people who have stolen from them. The selection of donuts is decent and apparently on the weekends there are speciality fritters. The owner operators are kind and so helpful (high praises!). I ordered one blueberry donut and one banana fritter. Both appeared to be well cooked and scrumptious. However, each of the donuts were over fried and tasted like old grease. The blueberry cake was full of blueberries but no real blueberry taste. The fritter was soaked in grease and no banana flavor. Sadly this is not on my list to try again.

He happens to need things that are lower in sugar content and we tried to order a strawberry mango smoothie. The employee Jonah was absolutely unprofessional, he took our order and he asked if I wanted a lid for my ice cream and I said yes. When it came time for my fiancé to order he ordered a strawberry mango smoothie which we had just seen another customer have made by another employee. Jonah flat out refused to make the item saying that they could not and also did not give me a lid on my ice cream or a spoon when finished with payment. I had to ask for a lid and realized that I did not have a spoon at this point either and his attitude got even worse and more unprofessional. Both of us felt extremely uncomfortable with the way this employee was conducting himself and did not feel safe in this particular location at time of service. We will not be returning here anytime soon and corporate needs to take a real review of how this location is doing and do something about the customer service and quality control issues. Simply put our special anniversary date was ruined by the incompetence of an unhappy employee who did not want to serve customers.
