This place is my favorite! The drinks are consistently delicious. Their specialty drinks are more like dessert drinks but costs as much as a regular bubble tea from other places. I love coming here and trying a different drink every time. The staff are always friendly and give good recommendations if you're indecisive. I'm glad I decided to try something nu ;) read more

Nu Ice & Drinks - Paradise tea with boba and nam nam ice coffee - Desserts Near Me - Houston, Texas

Hey Nu Drinks, passion tea is awesome. When will your tables become less or not sticky anymore to be able to enjoy the sit down experience there? The shaved ice is cool, can't go wrong there with anything. Also Tons of options there with the food and drinks read more

Pretty similar to the one in Chinatown. Very nice and chill dessert place. I went around 9pm on Friday and it's not very crowded (versus not even being able to find a seat at times in the Chinatown location). The shaved ice is pretty great! I got a mountain green tea shaved ice with condensed milk, mango, red bean, and honey boba! So yum! I got the extra topping with a check in on yelp (: I was planning to study here (very unsuccessfully), but the location has outlets all over. Compared to the teahouses near the med center, I would prefer this location. Might update after trying the tea, but with boba balls that tasty, I have high hope for the tea itself. read more

An excellent, EXCELLENT shaved ice and drinks place. I'll just give the rundown: PROS: - wide variety of drink selections from smoothies to milk teas, shaved ice flavors & toppings, and specialties - Very affordable prices! It's just $7 for a big "mountain" of shaved ice which can serve about 4 people quite well (also comes with two toppings) - Up-to-date and fresh facility - feels very clean and new, booths are in good shape as are the tables - Drinks and shaved ice are very tasty and will certainly satisfy that sweet tooth. - Friendly staff that serve you fast! I always make light conversation with the workers and can easily tell they're happy and welcoming (which is always refreshing). CONS: - ...I'll get back to you -- I can't think of any. In general, this is a very fresh and affordable place to go to in order to grab a nice drink or tasty dessert. Would certainly come back here often (I mean, I already have). read more

First time being at this location and of course the place met our expectations to the one on bellaire (chinatown). Interior is clean and have comfortable seating areas. We ordered the green tea with mochi, mango, and condensed milk, and a Nu milk tea. Tastes great! Presentation is still amazing and the consistency of the shaved ice is just worth one bite after another. We came here right after all you can eat Mongolian hotpot (right next door) and still still had room for Nu Ice. Will be coming back for more! Tip: signed up for their rewards card to earn points. Can be used for either locations read more

I love shaved ice and this place did not disappoint. The flavor is light (a great balance) and the texture is fluffy. I got the green tea with boba and flan. I think next time I'll skip the condensed milk drizzle. Boba was soft but not mushy, perfectly chewy and is lightly sweetened. The environment is welcoming, clean, and modern. The cashier/shaved ice maker girl was nice. The price is a bit on the higher end of normal (large was 8.36), but they don't allow coin tips (only whole numbers) for electronic tips. Not a big deal. The large is a great size for 2 people. Overall, I'd definitely come back and try out the difference flavors. read more

I love how different this is from ice cream. Ice cream give me a sort of a blah feeling halfway through but I can eat a hill of this and it's just perfect. I love the coconut with mango combo I recommend this place before ice cream any day. Oh and another plus is that the staff is great! read more

Nu Ice & Drinks - Green Tea - Desserts Near Me - Houston, Texas

Best boba drink I've ever had in my life is hands down the Rainbow mango drink! Fan-flipping-tastic. Have also had the shaved ice, would recommend the green tea. Employees are always great and give excellent service! Only complaint would be that I wish they had some kind of punch card or rewards system since I come here on almost a weekly basis lol. read more

The ice and drinks were really good. However as stated by others the staff didn't wear their mask properly. Nose wasn't covered and we were really concerned about that. Also staff wasn't friendly or caring. We waited about 5 min for our ice. When we then went to ask about it we were told that it sat on the counter all the time without we being notified about it. As a result our ice mountain was half molten by then and collapsed all over on the table when first touched by my spoon... :-( read more

I've been here a couple of times and I love this place! The shaved ice is delicious and so pretty to look at and take pics of! I also love their Thai tea, it's so nice and thick and the boba is a prefect consistency. Lastly, Debbie is sooooo sweet and answers all of our questions. read more

Unique combinations with shaved ice and bubble tea fusions. I got the Nu half and half. It was an awesome combo of milk ice, honey boba, pudding, and some kind of drizzle. I highly recommend it! They offer a wide array of flavors and toppings, definitely something for everyone! read more

I don't have that much shaved ice type dessert experience, so my review may be very naive, but this place is awesome! The one downside is the incredibly long lines and wait times that you have to deal with if it's busy, which it usually is it seems. They have a decent amount of seating inside, just a couple tables outside, but they get so busy that you may have trouble finding a place to sit. In that case just get your shaved ice to go (problem solved)! There is a yelp check in offer of one free topping! Don't forget to use that! The amount of shaved ice you get is insane. I don't know how people finish the mountain size on their own honestly. I'd recommend starting out with the hill if you're on your own and working your way up! If two people are sharing then just go for the mountain, as it comes with two toppings. I've only tried the green tea flavor so far, which I would highly recommend. It's not too sweet and is pretty much perfect for those that enjoy the natural sweetness of green tea without any added sugar on top. For the hill size you get one free topping and there are several to choose from. We also tried the almond milk bubble tea, which my husband liked a lot though it did have a little too much ice in it. I'm sure one could ask for less ice and it would be fine if you're a slow drinker and you don't want your drink to be getting more and more diluted as you're drinking it. So my only wish is for the service to be faster but even with that this place is worth a try if you're around the area and want something sweet. read more

Nu Ice & Drinks - Once again, Arisa provided me with superb customer service !!! And I'm hooked on their Paradise Tea, highly recommended !! - Desserts Near Me - Houston, Texas

I come here a lot w/ my girlfriend as it's perfect for an after dinner treat. I always get the strawberry snow, so I can only speak on that and it always tastes consistently great!! We usually get a little more condensed milk added half way (when it runs out) and they always have gratuitously given us more; however, they wanted to charge me .75 more for a little more... and then when they decided to give us more, one of the employees repetitively reminded the other about our restrictions-- and we definitely just got a few, small squirts more. Besides the last time, it has always been an enjoyable time. Great, cool taste especially when it's hot outside, but a little more on the pricey side for shaved ice cream. I'll be back though as it's the only snow option in the area! read more

I wished that I ordered a mountain instead of a hill. The ice was smooth and light. The vanilla wasn't too sweet so the chocolate and condensed milk drizzle created a nice balance. I'm not from Houston but when I visit, I always visit this place. read more

Nu Ice & Drinks - Number 1. It is Vanilla ice with Oreos and strawberries drizzled with condensed milk and chocolate. - Desserts Near Me - Houston, Texas

I loved the shaved Ice Cream, it is light and fluffy like a cream snow cone. They have two sizes hill and mountain, the hill is enough for two people.You get your choice of ad on and drizzles. The milk tea is a hit or miss, depending on flavor. They truly do have the best tapioca in tea. There is an explanation on the wall about the process. I usually hate the tapioca, but theirs is soft with a mild flavor. The staff has always been super helpful and friendly. read more

Good shit! My wife always gets the green tea shaved ice with condense milk, strawberry and mango topping. Great light refreshing dessert. Their drinks are ok. Its not a place I go for drinks, but if I stop for some shaved ice I will. Everyone should try it, the ice is soft and smooth and once it hits the tongue it melts right away. read more

SO DELICIOUS!!!!!! I absolutely love shaved ice cream, it is such a delicious treat. My personal favorite combination in the salted caramel hill (the mountain size is far too large for two people) with sweetened condensed milk, bananas, strawberries, and Oreos. This was a wonderful treat and it is not expensive at all. I highly recommend this treat to anyone who enjoys ice cream. I will return to this place. The parking is also easy, there is a large parking lot in the shopping center this is located in. read more

Great desserts! Lots of options to choose from. We've had a few of their boba drinks which are pretty decently sized and better for sharing. Their shaved ice is super refreshing and perfect for summer! The mango syrup with watermelon combo was amazing. read more

Cute spot for desserts with bae, friends, or family! They have recommended combos you can try or you can even build your own. They do offer in both small and large size or maybe it was half size and full? They have lots of fun add ons or toppings. We had fresh strawberries, mangoes, and lychee poppers with condensed milk drizzle on top of the strawberry ice. So good we will definitely be back to try all flavors. read more

I have not tried the shaved ice so I'll write a review when I come again. The boba tea was okay. The boba itself was a little hard as if it wasn't fully cooked or something. But the flavor of the tea was on point. It's milky goodness will allow me to come back and try some more things. read more

I have been here too many times to count and figured it was time to actually write them a review. Firstly, they make excellent Thai tea. As a lover of Thai tea (try it out everywhere it is offered), I can say that they are easily top three on the level of thai teas I've had. Secondly they don't skimp on the ingredients, no matter what I add to the drink (normally flan or boba). Third, they always make it fresh - it is never a weird old taste and it is never watered down. My friends and family also often accompany me here for our late night tea runs or shaved ice cravings and we have had most of the drinks/shaved ice combos between us at this point. Everything we have had tasted excellent and was usually made and delivered in a timely manner. The only reason I am leaving out a single star is that sometimes they skimp on the condensed milk on another ingredient we add to our shaved ice. It just doesn't taste the same when that occurs. And it has happened often enough that I don't think it's an operator error any longer - they must be told to use less of the ingredients by the owners. The service has always been excellent and the place is usually very clean. The seating is pretty comfortable and it's good for both small groups and large groups as well as to study in. Parking is readily available usually. All in all, a great place for tapioca and shaved ice - one of my favs in the city! read more

Excellent shaved ice! When you check in you get a free topping, so my friend and I both checked in and shared a shaved ice hill (their smaller size). We got salted caramel with strawberries, bananas, Oreos, and sweetened condensed milk. Service was very fast and the establishment was a clean, modern, welcoming environment. read more

This place is so unique and the kids love it here. Nice and big portions but also very affordable.

Huge choices of creamed ice and boba drinks .. everything is yummy, definitely recommend.

This was my third time here and I have to say every dish I try here is amazing. The flavor and topping combinations are great and well worth the price. I came here right after work (so I was still in my uniform) and was shocked to. Find out that they offered a military discount!!!! I think it's safe to say I'll be a customer for life. read more
