Said differently, I felt like a kid in a shaved ice store. Ice Ice Baby serves desserts with bold, fresh and sweet and spicy flavors. This San Antonio go-to shop is known for its shaved ice and Mexican inspired treats that are packed with fresh fruit, chamoy, chili powder, Tajín, and candy toppings, all made to order and can be customized to your liking. They have many colorful pictures of dessert options, you can feel a bit overwhelmed. The menu offers a dessert options such as classic raspas (Mexican style shaved ice) and Italian ice to popular items like mangonadas (mango based slushy or shaved ice dessert), fruit cups, and corn in a cup. The shaved ice was smooth and refreshing, with vibrant fruit flavors that taste extremely fresh. Whether you go all fruit, candy loaded, or extra spicy, the portions are generous and are well worth the price. I chose the Mango Bear with Italian ice. The mangos were fresh and sweet. Also, the Italian ice was so smooth it felt like eating sorbet. Great first-time experience... Inside, the shop is clean, colorful, and welcoming...a perfect place to cool off from the Texas heat. Bright yellow picnic tables line the inside of the shop. The vibe was casual and family-oriented. The servers made you feel like you were the only one in the shop even though folks waited in line behind you. They were friendly and helpful, especially explaining menu options or offering recommendations and samples to first timers like myself. Highly recommend Ice Ice Baby!

I'm still waiting to find a place that tops this one. The corn is eh, check out my other reviews for a better place. I also tried the Tostitos preparados and I wish I didn't get the corn in there because it became super watered down and soggy real quick. I rate it a 3 because though it is open late, the quality can be iffy. There are SO many things to try on this menu so if a late night snack is in your destiny, I'd still recommend going.

If you come here, the first thing you should ask for is the Mexican burger, because they are so meaty and thick and juicy and amazing that they tend to sell out pretty fast. That would be by far my favorite thing on the menu. You should know they are also very accommodating to large groups if you're looking for somewhere to have a get together.

Very sweet people. Today marks their 1 year anniversary open! The place is very clean inside and out. When you walk in it has loud Latin music videos on. So be ready to dance while you wait! ( you can dine in or go to walk up window) The outside also has a speaker going while a friendly face waits for an order. Burgers and dogs are grilled made to order, so be prepared for a short wait. Well worth it in my opinion! So far I've had a banana split, chocolate sundae, nachos, hamburger and hot dog. Banana splits are pretty much standard I didn't want to be to picky the first time. I like to see how different spots prepare their items. They do not add fresh fruit on the banana splits. I always get double chocolate and strawberry. The ice cream is topped with whipped cream and on top of that a syrup. She put a chocolate, strawberry and caramel syrup over whip. Also she didn't match the syrup to the ice cream( the ocd in me almost got me) I like things to match It was delicious and I'm glad I kept my mouth shut! The sundaes are interesting also. It's a clear plastic cup coated on the inside with your favorite flavor of syrup. (Be specific when ordering) so I ordered a chocolate sundae. The syrup of course is chocolate but so is the ice cream. No biggie cause I'm a chocolate lover. I was expecting vanilla inside. It's then topped with a nice dollop of whip cream and a cherry. Nachos are served in a Rico's personal tortilla chip bag. Can't go wrong with nachos. Jalapeños are not spicy at all. In my opinion and My guage is very low. The hamburger! Im sad I didn't take a picture cause it was devoured while I waited for my friends order. The burger prepared on a propane grill. (The cook only speaks Spanish) so if you don't like how it comes brush up on your Spanish! Its cooked well done with cheese, bacon and grilled onions. It sits on a bed tomato and ice berg lettuce. On top of the veggies he adds his condiments mayo and ketchup. Closes her up with a sesame seed bun. (Bun was toasty on outside and pillowy on inside)Hamburger goes back on the grill to toast up one last time. The hot dog was good also prepared on grill. Frank was a bit peppery and kind of spicy for my taste. Maybe like a sausage? It is wrapped in a slice of bacon and grilled up nice and crisp. The dog is topped with grilled onions, lettuce, tomato and mayo. They have other condiments sitting out to add according to your taste. And also jalapeños and I think pickles? I just let him create his dish! I like my food busy so if you don't like busy food, Definitely voice what you want inside. Anywho Show them some love and I hope they have many more anniversaries!

If you follow them on instargram they will post when open. They do have a few tables outside to chill and snack with some music playing. When you order something you will receive a buzzer which comes in handy when we are waiting in the car. We have gone here over the past year and have tried a few things. The service is good but the wait time is about 10 mins. So be patient when you go. We always get the nachos loaded with cheese , chili and jalapeño. He does not skimper on toppings! Every chip has sauce. The same with hot Cheetos , frito pies and dessert items . We also get the Agua frescas. Right now the strawberry one is my favorite. It's not over powering and not overly sweet. I do recommend trying their lemonade too! My son always gets a raspa or mangonada. The mangonada is to die for. Especially if you get the one fully dressed up with candy. My daughter just tried the corn in a cup. 10/10! I was taken back because it actually has this white melted stringy cheese that really makes the whole cup so much better. This is is our go to spot when we have late night munchies.
