This place was not raspado ice - Huge ice chunks that were too hard to chew i had to keep scooping them out. So I was just sipping on syrup with ice. I don't know what's wrong with this location, but this isn't what I'm used to of Raspado express.

No se porque tratan de justificar el mal servicio de las empleadas. Para empezar lo tratan a uno como si le estan regalando las cosas. A mi no me pueden decir que dulce de leche, cajeta y caramelo son lo mismo . Deverian de trabajar en mejorar su servicio al cliente.

Raspado Xpress is down the street from "Super Torta" and apparently another hang out of Yelp's Homegirl Violy..... Was full from the Torta and Nachos so just wanted to come check this spot out and sample what they have, will definitely be heading back to check out their wide variety of Raspados! Bionico's are more than chopped up fruit, it'a also about the Crema and up until now "Bionicos La Palapa" has been my favorite, I must say while I didn't get a Bionico, the crema here at Raspado Xpress is top notch! Fresas con Crema - small ($5.45) https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/raspado-xpress-sun-valley?select=9Gnr0PoM96TgE-3yBVwDIw A good amount of chopped fresh strawberry's mixed with their house made Crema that was delicious! 5-Stars Churro de Pueblo Lechara ($2.50) https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/raspado-xpress-sun-valley?select=zrLNjzq08N8Piv3I61bbyQ At first bite it's not your traditional churro dough, I'm not sure what they've done but it's more like a "Beignet" it did taste good, this was filled with Lechara https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/raspado-xpress-sun-valley?select=Vm_q06WovrPt9bcco_dpag overall a good but different Churro, but $2.50 for a Churro? 4-Stars I shall return for some Raspados!

So I got 3 raspados and 2 esquites... but the esquites are raw, the corn it's hard uncooked. I'm calling but they won't answer...

I haven't been to Raspado Xpress in a while, I recently went on Tuesday and I wouldn't go back. The prices are reasonable for the size of raspados but for what they give no, the drink was filled with the flavor of raspado wanted but hardly even any ice and I nicely asked the lady for more ice and she hesitated. I had also ordered a churro and let me just say nothing like the picture they have, it looks like they made it with the pillsbury sheets. Over all a bad experience and everything I had bought went straight to the trash, please do better!

People on these reviews are trippin, this place was BOMB! It's definitely NOT fancy and on a little ghetto street (it's LA, everything good is on a little ghetto street) you can take to go, or enjoy it there on some benches. 5 drinks were 20$, and worth every penny! I got the spicy "Chamango" (4.50) and the mango was perfectly ripe and PLENTY in the cup. It's honestly a meal within itself because you get so full with one drink. What I liked most, was the spice to the Chamango, was the perfect level! It was not overly spicy, and the sweet level to the drink was also perfect with not being overly sweet, which is what usually happens at most raspado places. I'll definitely be returning to try all the other things. They even have a Mexican corn bowl for 3$ and fruit bowls w/cottage cheese for 4$ If you're in the area, and it's hot as hell like usual, definitely try this place! (;

Bionicos and A Large Coconut Smoothie is my menu , closed by my work , ordered by phone and pick up in store 5 minutes , Rapados Xpress is my first option after a good lunch , One can't think well , love well , sleep well , if one has not eaten well . Sure I eat my feelings , but I save the emotional rollercoaster for dessert Your Friend RJ ;)

Cassandra G.

I got the fruit bowl! They only have: mango, jicama, pineapple, watermelon, and cucumber as the fruit options. Unfortunately they don't have coconut like street fruit carts. Also their chili powder is not tajin FYI Nonetheless fresh, crisp, fruit.

I got the besafresca I believe it's called. strawberry limeade with a bit of spice

Jeanette F.

My husband has been going on and on about how good this place is. I finally was able to taste for myself and it was delicious. I got what I think is called the besafresca which is a strawberry limeade with a bit of spice and it was delicious!! It was so refreshing and flavorful. Also I don't know how they do it but the drinks are made super fast!!! I used to go to a similar place and it was always a long wait, I appreciated the quick service.

Bionico - apples, strawberries, papaya, granola, coconut shavings with a whole bunch of other goodness!

Only reason why I'm giving it a one is because I'm kind of upset. We came 7 minutes before they closed. There was one person ordering. We walked in and the guy said they're closed. How? That's not how business' work. If your sign says 8:30. You close at 8:30. They must have also stopped making certain things because the girl who was ordering stormed out with nothing. He just locked the door and went back in. Bad for business. read more

So I'm always craving their " Strawberry Raspado " I get none of that leche crap, but with extra Strawberries. I give the Raspado's 5 Star all across but this review is for my last time coming. I'm Mexican American, 4th generation. My parents messed up and did not teach me Spanish. I know It's unfortunate as hell, but I'm starting to learn and actually try to speak it any chance I get . My boyfriend and I decide to hit up this place because it was 100 + degrees outside and I was craving one. * JESSICA GETS WHAT JESSICA WANTS * We had our furr baby with us so I told my boyfriend to wait in the car while I go and order them to go. The lady in front of me ordering where chatting it up with the cash register, having a jolly ol' time talking about how she had a coupon for a free raspado. ( I can understand Spanish BOOM ) It's my turn I ordered my raspado and my man's and the lady looks at me in disgust because how I spoke ). I have never felt so uncomfortable in my entire life, I felt like she was not even listening to what I had to say, but instead staring me down. I paid and stood there as I waited her to ask for my name, nothing . She went to the back then brought some other girl to the front and stared me down for about 1-2 minutes. * AWKWARD * My order was ready and because the rude lady didn't ask my name the other sweet lady had to call out my order. I personally will never be back to this location, ok I lied I will. I wish I got the girls name, to burn her name on this review. No one deserves to be treated or looked at the way I was . read more

I usually love this place but I had the rudest customer experience in here. I went in to order an esquite and I told the lady NO chile and to please drain all the water out of the corn. When my order was ready, I grabbed it and left home . Upon opening it at home I noticed a whole bunch of chile and the cup was overflowing w water . I immediately called to complain and the lady rudely said "why didn't you tell us when you were here" I explained that I had just gotten my order and left to which she replied with a dry ass "sorry" . When I proceeded to ask what she could do for me , she hung up on me . When I called back, no answer . This solidified my decision in ever going back . There's a similar place right down the st and they're a lot friendlier . read more

Specialties

Raspados (shaved Ice) is what we are famous for! Specially our Spicy ones. They are made with 100% natural fruits, NO SYRUPS.

History

Established in 2002.

The Raspado business started in a cart in the city of Pacoima, accross the street from our current location there. After family problems, Mom, and son joined forces. With the help of family and friends, began to build with their own hands, and tears, what is now RaspadoXpress in Laurel Canyon and Osborne in the same city.

I only leave 1 star off because I wanted more flavor in the grilled fish taco, I ended up hitting it with salsa and lemon to get something more from it. The side of beans I got with my tacos... amazing, they tasted just like my Nana's beans she'd make for us growing up, they took me back and I savored every bite. Overall a great experience, I'd definitely recommend for family dinners, date nights, or lunch with coworkers.

I can never finish it all in one sitting. Secondly, it's packed full of rice, beans, carrots, corn, broccoli, and zucchini. The brown tortilla is nice and soft. It doesn't even need salsa on the side. It's flavorful as is. I just finished my leftovers and by writing this my mouth is watering again.

I got there and the whole order was completely ready. I noticed only 2 people working there and a group of people dining in the dining room, so I was pleasantly surprised at how quick they were. In fact, one person in my group forgot to make a special request for their order, so I had to drive back up there to order a new item, and they really rushed my replacement order so that I wouldn't have to wait. I really appreciated that! The food was amazing! I personally had a chicken quesadilla, and I loved every bite of it. It was perfectly cooked, the chicken had great flavor, and the guac was perfect! 10 out of 10 in my book! If I lived in town, I'd be here on a weekly basis.

He took the bone out of my plate and he didn't put any more meat nothing and when I asked the owner, he said it was boiling so you come here don't expect good things because here's the manager is the one who he is right it took me there only 15 minutes for me to get a coffee and then when I get a coffee, she never come back to see if I need more coffee. My cup was empty then finally I'm already finish. Eat the 10 pieces of Menudo the meat he asked me if I were more coffee. I already wait like 20 25 minutes. We're not drink. The ambience is not really good. Definitely I will not recommend this place and I will never come back and I love Menudo

i never write reviews but felt like this place deserved it. i was looking around for some coffee…read morespots nearby and found this place on apple maps and saw that they use only clean, non-toxic ingredients and knew i had to visit. i was a bit wary about it being located in someone's backyard but as i was walking through i was so charmed by the space. the barista was incredibly friendly and took her time to explain the menu and let me look at it. she made my drink (iced vanilla latte with whole milk) very quickly and this was one of the best lattes i've ever had. she even added a cute little cookie to go with it and it tasted really good! i will definitely be back in the future.

Their coffee based ice makes the drink feel so classy and keeps the flavor going as they melt also. I'd say the top drink for me would be their Horchata Latte which is their signature drink and it gives a great nutty warm flavor. They are very intentional about the coffee making process, the ingredients they use and their mission. It's really neat speaking with them about how they got to where they are today. Their outdoor space is quite calming and cozy and has neat wooden elements around. Customer service is top notch, as well. You always feel like their favorite customer. I'm literally obsessed with their drinks and frequent their space at least once a week. If you haven't gone by go do so. You definitely won't regret it!

all you have to do is see the other 5 star ratings for this place...! im not gonna explain what a raspado is, look at Oliver S' post. but in short, on a hot summer day, or like tonight, a chilly californian winter, my fave is the yellow cherry / pineapple. my 2nd fave is, uhm, i dunno what they call it but if you've had the mango lollipop candy with chile on it, yeah that one, they make a raspado of that too...! be careful cuz my 1st sip i got a ton of chile in mouth...! this place will make you happy, your tummy even happier...! guarantee that...! & if you dont like it well,.. um i guess its 31 flavors for ya then eh...? read more

I wish I could give 0 stars ! This is the second time something happens to me coming here. First they had a crazy guy just wandering outside of their store and he grabbed me!! And today The guy worker there with colored eyes and a dweeb ass hair cut is such an asshole! I was looking at their menu and no one was in line all of a sudden a big ass line formed and I was finally ready I was just there waiting for him to ask me if I was ready and he never did he just kept taking the next person in line? Like hello you see me here why not just take my order real quick since i was in line and just looking at the menu. Asshole! read more

I have always been so in love with Mexican candy since I was young. Living in Los Angeles it was always around and I always had a tooth for it. I was told about this place by a friend so I came out with my sister to try it. It was so good!! I got the mango diablo raspado with the Mexican candy straw and my sister got the tamarind raspado. We actually loved it and even got it despite the fact that it was a bit chilly outside. They have great flavor and it actually tastes like real fruit as opposed to artificial syrup like most places have. read more

I am a huge fan of Respado's, however I am not impressed at all with this place. there is usually a line, which makes you think it will be good. I have been here twice and both times were just ehhh. First of at the place is not clean, the tables are sticky and both times has filthy floors. There service is slow and the Chamango was not as good as other places I have been. The only reason i am giving them two stars is because the lady who helped us was very nice. I would not recommend this place, because there is much better out there. read more

Gave it another shot , after 10 months absolutely terrible customer service . Wasn't even greeted , the cashier gave me attitude , very expensive , and once I received my order I said thank you twice when they handed my items , and didn't even get an acknowledgement or a simple your welcome . That's it I will never come back again . By the way don't waste your time calling to place an order over the phone they NEVER answer . read more

This is probably my favorite raspado place in my neighborhood ! The prices might be a bit pricey but the overall quality of the products is amazing!
