Yes yes yes! I think I found my new favorite dessert spot for the summer! These Korean shaved ice…read moreare where it's at! They are perfectly light, and sweet and packed with flavor! You don't feel like you're eating shaved ice! You feel like you're eating a fluffy cloud! When you walk in, you are greeted by kiosks where you place your order. You don't have much interaction with the staff other than than they calling out your number when your order is ready Only downside is they were playing music way too loud! The store itself had maybe 1-2 other parties inside... but the music was too loud we practically had to yell at each other to MAYBE hear the person right next to us. I definitely was not a fan of that vibe. The dessert itself though was phenomenal

Parking is in the connected garage, and if you make a purchase you can validate your parking! I visited on a very busy day (World Cup Korea v Mexico) so the service was pretty timely considering the insane crowds everywhere in Ktown. Inside were many tables, which were hard to grab with the crowds on this particular day. The yogurt berry bingsu had a mild tart yogurt taste throughout the fluffy ice, which I loved! The berries were sweet and the portion was good for two. I'm really interested in trying their injeolmi and black sesame flavors as well! Ultimately this was a fun, delicious spot that I'll be back for!

Sul & Beans is a great place for late night dessert. The shaved ice was light, fluffy, and…read moreperfectly refreshing with just the right amount of sweetness. The toast was also a standout--warm, crispy on the outside, and deliciously sweet on the inside. The combination of both is a must-order. Great desserts, cozy atmosphere, and a perfect place to satisfy your sweet tooth. I'll definitely be back!

I parked across the street to visit Trader Joe's and remembered I had been wanting to try Mewame!…read more When I walked in, the space was moody and clean. The staff member was kind and friendly as well as patient when it came to me trying to decide which flavor to try. I chose the Spring Seasonal Flavor which happened to be Jasmine Green Tea and it was incredibly delicious. Sweet, fragrant, and light. It made for a perfect blend that was refreshing and smooth. I thought the texture of the shaved ice was really interesting and melted in a soft serve way. Overall, highly recommend. Absolutely worth a try for vegans and non-dairy people alike.

Came here with a friend for a post meal dessert. Street parking on Santa Monica is tough (and…read moremetered!) but there is free street parking on the side street this is located on if you're good to walk a bit. Seating is exclusively indoors and its limited BUT mewame is right next to a small outdoor park where you can take your dessert to-go and eat at! Matcha shaved ice 4.5/5, this was delicious and I would definitely would come again! It's more of a traditionally bitter green tea tasting matcha flavor and the hints of coconut throughout add some sweetness. Each portion is big enough to share for two!

The ube doesn't taste like ube at all. The purple powder had no flavor. The mango slices were a bit sour, but I liked the vanilla ice cream and overall the flavor was very refreshing. The misugaru wasn't very nutty-tasting and the mochi on top was hard. Their walnut cakes are delicious though. I'd come back for those.

My new favorite spot for decadent matcha and hojicha drinks!…read more The cream top on the hojicha einspanner was so creamy and thick, and it was also the perfect level of sweetness. The strawberry matcha einspanner was also yummy and had a great presentation The space is pretty small but there are a few seats available. The line was around 20 minutes long on a Saturday afternoon. Like most spots in ktown, the parking lot is limited and you'll likely need to find street parking, but it is definitely worth the hype!

Upon entering the place is clean, sleek, and modern. We were greeted right away. I already knew I was leaving with 2 drinks for the drive back home. I ordered: 1. Cold brew vanilla: Delicious, I love that tou can see the vanilla cream on top. This was definitely what I needed to wake me up. 2. Matcha einspener: I tasted this and immediately loved it when leaving the store. I saved it for last. It was so light and refreshing. I could easily drink it all day if they had a bigger size lol. I was hoping to try the seasonal mango cream matcha, but sadly it was gone. 3. Pastries: I wanted to try the sampler but I don't thinking they had it yet. I tried one of the cinnamon pastries. It was soft and very cinnamony. Overall, it was a great experience and I'll be back soon.

And they brought all their yum puréed syrups with them from Maui! How do you eat shaved ice? Li Hing Mui Powder, Mochi, Ice Cream, Cheesecake Cream, Haupia Cream, Azuki Beans? And if you love art, as in cool papers, pens, and such, Ululani's in located inside a really cool art supply store in Los Feliz. It was cold yesterday in LA but I happily ate my shaved ice on a bench reliving all the fun I've had in Maui over the years. Hot tip: the ice is good for sure but add a fun topping!!

Overall, a solid go-to in Koreatown when you want good coffee and a chill atmosphere. Definitely coming back.
