    Stumbled upon this treasure after searching for a light dessert after dinner! I absolutely adored the presentation along with the flavors. I ordered the strawberry and it came out very quickly. Condensed milk refills were also no charge which I appreciate and love. The strawberries were cut fresh and drenched with a strawberry glaze as well. A plop of vanilla ice cream definitely did not hurt hahaha. Overall I was super satisfied with the flavors as it was up to par with all the other snow places I have been to. Hidden in the very middle was scoop red bean for those that enjoy that. My final thoughts are it was quite pricey ($17) which was surprising for snow... hence the four stars. However there was plenty of seating and there is a parking structure under the establishment. Final Verdict: Satisfying!!!

    Underrated spot right across from Mi Cafe on the second floor of the M Plaza. They do take a LONG time to fulfill orders, but you can definitely tell it's because they're making everything fresh. The Garlic Cheese Toast was soooo crispy, flavorful, fluffy, and just unreal. And everything's reasonably priced considering it's in ktown. If you're studying or working on the second floor patio, I highly recommend trying something from Ooyoo Cafe!

    Honestly, this place is the best so far when it comes to bingsu and the prices!!!! I order the mango bingsu and everything was perfect, refreshing and yummy. The mango is so fresh and so much in flavor and had so much sweetness to it, I couldn't stop and wanted more! The portion was so good for the price! I also order the taiyaki the 5 for $9.95 and truly believe it's worth the price and got to mix my flavors for the inside. Ordered the red bean, custard, Nutella, and Oreo. The stand out was the Nutella of course, it's crispy on the outside and nice and soft and gooey on the inside. Ambiance: everything well lit and nicely clean, there's also outside seating, like a little lounge and very nice to hang out!

    Mango Shaved Ice

    Food: 4.6/5 Ambiance: 4.9/5 Value: 4.6/5 I love that there is parking and that this little shop is a bit off the main strip of k-town so it's less crowded. The pancakes and mango shaved ice were both really great! I don't think it was anything better than other places but it definitely still hit the spot, and was exactly what I wanted when we stopped by. The thing I love the most is the ambiance of the place. There's plenty of outdoor seating with cute/comfy outdoor furniture. Strongly recommend stopping by for a quick post-meal dessert!

    Custard Taiyaki

    Would highly recommend this place for dessert! If you're looking for a sweet treat, Ooyoo is a great choice! We ordered the hotteok and the custard taiyaki. Both came out hot and fresh. The hotteok was very hot and slightly crispy. The custard taiyakis were light and weren't batter heavy. We also ordered the matcha slush which had a very strong matcha flavor and was slightly bitter. It had red beans in it too. Would recommend ordering if you're a matcha lover! Service was good and they took our order down quickly. There is plenty of seating in the shop and a patio as well. There's also parking above and underground. Would come back!

    Strawberry Bingsu

    Ooyoo should be renamed to Oooyaaaa!! Great little cafe with an inviting upstairs patio with lots of plants. They have a private lot to park with a security guard. I usually go in the evenings for a quick bingsu fix. I'm not a bingsu connoisseur, but I really enjoy Ooyoo's. The service is fast and friendly, great seating and delicious desserts. They also do freshly made Taiyaki's, which are often ordered by other patrons. The strawberry Bingsu had sweet strawberries and definitely can feed multiple people. I also enjoyed their black sesame one that comes with mochi and red beans inside. Ooyoo is easy to get in and out of. They're open till 9:30 on weekdays and later on weekends.

    Open seating second floor.

    Another bingsu place. I love the open seating area, this is shared with the other cafe in this building. We ordered large Mango bingsu, they used not the Atulfo or yellow mango, hence it's not that sweet. The shaved ice is fine and good, red bean inside is well cooked and big portions and pieces. If I will compare this with some other bingsu place, I think theirs is the same but I had better. We also tried their taiyaki in cream cheese and red bean flavors--both were delicious! They had a nice crunch on the outside and a chewy texture inside. The filling was generous and made for a satisfying treat.

    Next time I'll have to buy 6 at once, bring it home to freeze and eat for later so I don't have to have a hankering when I'm so far away from dessert :( =========== have no words because it was too good, it took the words out of my mouth and it's been a few weeks for me to remember all the detail lol Cheese ranked quite high Red bean was my fav Skip pizza But the part that makes me love this is the actual taiyaki itself. It's filled to the gills with filling, mouth to tail and it was crunchy and chewy simultaneously. It wasn't too doughy either! Way better than somi somi. This taiyaki blows everyone else out of the water (no pun intended) Service was sweet and the atmosphere is pretty cool cuz you can hang on a large outdoor area with a nice layout. Lots of chairs available, but it was quite crowded. Parking underground. Affordable from what I recall, under $10 for 3. Id love to try other items!

    Nutella & Cheddar Taiyaki.

    Delicious Korean snacks here! My kids were hungry so we decided to try this place out. We ordered the Honey Rice Cake, Garlic Cheese Toast and Taiyaki (Nutella and Cheddar). All of them were yummy! My kids gobbled everything up and I only tasted a bit of each. I liked the Honey Rice Cake. Sweet and just a bit chewy and the honey oozing out of these yummy things! The Garlic Cheese Toast was good, buttery and of course cheesy. The taiyaki were both good too. When I'm in the area, I'll stop by and order these again!

    Food: Ooyoo bingsu: 9/10 (size: small) I'm not a huge fan of red bean but this changed my mind. It was the perfect amount of sweetness and they were very generous with the toppings. A small is the perfect size for 2 people. Definitely the best bingsu i've tried!! Taiyaki: 8/10 - custard & red bean You can't go wrong with Taiyaki's but I liked how crispy the batter was and the amount of filling inside. Service: Average Didn't really interact with the worker there but the food came out pretty quickly! Ambiance: 10/10 The cafe is located inside a plaza which has sooo much seating outside but the cafe itself also offers a lot of seating. It's well decorated and aesthetically pleasing. Extra: - Restrooms for customers - Free water - Outside patio closes at 11pm but store closes at 10pm - Cute photobooth in the seating area Definitely worth checking out and I will definitely be coming back!!

    Mango Bingsoo

    Such a cute outdoor seating area. Lots of tables and quick service. We got the mango bingsoo and the mangos were very sweet

    For the longest time, I always thought that Oakobing was the go-to place when it comes to finding good Bingsu (Korean shaved ice dessert) in KTown, but there certainly was a paradigm shift after trying this place out! Ooyoo is a solid contender for the spot of best bingsu purveyor in KTown, the place is a bit difficult to find but well worth it once you manage to get to it. The seating itself is such a nice touch. There are big booth-like, semi round couches outside with what looks like a fireplace in the middle, so perfect for large groups. My favorite was the strawberry bingsu, but the other two flavors that we tried were very (injeolmi and black sesame) were also highly recommended. They also sell Ah-Boong, a fish-shaped waffle cone filled with your choice of filling. We went with the red bean paste, and it was great. Parking isn't too difficult in the area either.

    After dinner with my friends, I visited with my friend's recommendation, and it was delicious because Korean traditional tea and snacks were all handmade.

    Ever since discovering this place, it's become one of my favorite post-dinner dessert spots…read morewhenever I'm in the area. The Bualoy Salted Egg Shaved Ice was a standout. The shaved ice was incredibly soft and creamy, almost melting in your mouth, while the toppings added a great variety of textures. Between the chewy bualoy, crunchy cookies, and the salted egg sauce to drizzle over the top, every bite felt well balanced without being overly sweet. Seating is limited, so it may be difficult to find a table during busier hours, especially if you're ordering shaved ice. The plaza also offers valet parking only.

    Unique, tasty, and good quality Thai desserts here! One of my go-to spots in LA for dessert. I came…read morehere with my family during mango season (Summer) and all the desserts they had were great! To share, we had the following: -Mango Sticky Rice: This honestly was my favorite without all the bells and whistles. The Asian mango was sweet and soft and the rice was sticky and sweet with delicious coconut flavor. The sweet cream tied everything together, it was just so good! -Mango Sticky Rice Sundae: The same mango sticky rice, but with added scoops of gelato. The gelato here was creamy and good! -Mango Sticky Rice Shaved Ice: Yummy and I like how there were a good amount of chunks of mango and sticky rice throughout the ice. The ice was soft and creamy, great for the summer! The interior is cute with some seating and tables. They also have a single private bathroom available. Totally doable for a group, just expect it to be a bit tight. For parking, there's limited valet only spots in front of the shop, but you can also park further away for free.

I ordered a matcha Einspanner less sweet. It came out super creamy and really well balanced. Also, I have never seen a matcha look like that! The cafe is pretty spacious with a decent amount of seating, which I appreciated. A huge plus is that they have a parking lot. Overall, I had a great experience and would definitely come back!

They have chairs and tables for you to hang out and eat/drink what you purchased. There's also just benches if you wanna lounge. I've seen people here working on their laptop and groups of people around one table so the vibe is chill and friendly. It also depends on what time of day you come. Weekends usually get packed. As for the drinks and food. What we've had here has always been good. Best to eat their Croffle and baked goods there. Although Matcha is not for my liking, I'm more for their Taro Drink. B says the Matcha here is one of the better ones she's had. I have to agree even their Matcha Ice Cream is good. We get is the Matcha Croffle + Ice Cream, Matcha Einspanner, Taro Einspanner, and their cakes. Only thing I knocked down a star is because Not all the workers know the answers to your questions of what is in what food item or if you can substitute the milks. So that's something Cafe Upper should train all staff. Especially if people have food allergies.
