    Loveeeeee somisomi. It will always be my first choice for dessert when we're in Chinatown. It's just a quick ice cream and fish waffle dessert. You get roughly 6 ice cream flavors to choose from & 3 of the flavors will be in a swirl if you prefer that. I ordered the Oreo and banana cream swirl with Nutella filling inside my waffle. There is limited seating here and no tables to sit at, so it's not exactly very accommodating.

    The best dessert in Spring Mountain, it taste amazing in the service is really good. It will be a little late in the line, but that's because it's so good but they get through the line really fast! Family and friend friendly there's a sitting area/ staircase !

    This spot has something for everyone in my family and friend group. Most of the ice cream flavors are lactose free - check, check; red bean taiyaki - check; ice cream with Asian flavors - check, check, check. The business is always clean and the service is friendly. there are no samples and you cannot get two flavors unless it is a part of their predetermined swirl. I don't know who decides, but I really don't want Thai tea with cookies and cream. Getting the fish shaped cone is a must! I say take a few taiyaki home for a crispy air fryer treat later in the day. The down side is the limited seating. Enjoy!

    Jeeeeez, this place is amazing! Best dessert spot in Vegas. Fresh baked waffle wraps filled with decadent soft serve and choice of complimentary topping and filling? Just amazing!

    Always a good idea to stop over and pick up a special Korean dessert known as "Ah-Boong", a fish-shaped waffle cone filled with your choice of soft serve and toppings. They really have a good selection to choose from. I got the strawberry soft serve, fruity pebble topping, and pastry filling with custard is a must. Came here with a few people, line was short and the young guy taking order was quick. The place is located at Shanghai Plaza. Parking is limited but, you can also park on the street near by. Inside they have a tier bench to sit on, it reminds me of the bleachers we had in high school lol. On the side of the entrance, there is a long standing table to eat as well.

    This is my go to place when I want somthing hot fresh and not too sweet. I get mine plain sometimes The signature "Ah-Boong" (taiyaki with soft serve) is the main draw, The "upside down" option (ice cream in a cup with the fish on top) is a popular choice to avoid mess. This is what I usually get the upside down option. Sometimes I just crave the fish plain or with custard on the side no ice cream needed. They have many options on filings to choose from, such as (Nutella, custard, red bean, black sesame, cheese) and unlimited toppings fruity pebbles, Oreos crumbs are popular choices. This place gets busy so be ready to wait for your order as sometimes they are making them fresh. Give this place a try and happy eating....

    The dessert is definitely for mi, but the seating is so-so. Somisomi is a chain that offers taiyaki (fish-shaped waffles) and rotating flavors of soft serve ice cream. I enjoy their Henderson location quite a bit, but upon finishing lunch in this location's plaza and noticing that there's currently a matcha/strawberry swirl on the menu, I had to stop in for that specific blend. The Soft Serve In A Cup ($4.50 now) is the straightforward way to experience the soft serve. You can get toppings too, and I went with my semi-standard matcha powder and biscoff crumbles. I definitely got both the matcha and a strawberries-and-cream experience in most of the bites, so it was worth it for that alone. The complimentary strawberry was ripe and naturally sweet too though, and it added intensity and nuance in every little nibble which I was able to take of it. The issue I have with this specific store is that they apparently deemed it unnecessary to buy chairs even well after the pandemic had resolved. The only seating is stadium style, kinda like a lower-rent version of Gabi, and it's pretty easy to spill toppings or even melting ice cream onto yourself without a counter or table. I can have my counter with a seat at the Henderson location, so why not here? Somisomi is a great option overall for dessert, but this isn't the perfect place to have some.

    Stopped in for a late night treat after dinner and this place never disappoints. The cashier was nice and helpful when ordering. The soft serve is always spot on and the serving size is enough for 2 to share(glad I brought my boyfriend). The taiyaki is always delicious no matter what flavor you choose. There are some seating options but it is a smaller area to sit or stand. The flavors and swirls change every week and you can find that information on their instagram so always check before going if you're looking for a specific flavor. We will be back soon since I can't get enough of this place!

    Gotta stop here every time we're in Vegas!! Always crowded and worth the weight every single time. How many flavors that are lactose free. Is there lots of sunny souls and this one has an amazing atmosphere. Love the staircase sitting area. Not far from the Strip. Can't help the gift but it's delicious dessert!

    Upside Down Ahboong Taiyaki with Matcha Filling and Early Grey Soft Serve

    I had Somisomi once in LA many years ago and remembered it was good but at the time, they didn't ask or offer toppings like this visit in Vegas so it wasn't the most memorable back then. What got me really excited about this visit was seeing Earl Grey soft serve on the menu! I got the Upside Down Ahboong. I chose matcha for the filling this time which was alright, I think I prefer the custard. Of course Earl Grey for the soft serve. When they call your name, there's a variety of toppings you can add which is all included! Lastly, they ask if you want a fresh strawberry or macaroon to finish it all off. If you ever had the Earl Grey ice cream from Van Leeuwen, is very similar! Absolutely delicious, I'd come back just for the Earl Grey soft serve!

    The taiyaki at Somi Somi are absolutely legendary. I couldn't help myself I had to try all of them! IG: @somisomiicecream

    This was great! Last time I was in, it took a lonnng time but this time it went really fast and there was quite a few people there so really big and good improvement. Great soft serve and the little fish are delicious! There isn't a lot of sitting room inside though and parking can be rough so just make yourself aware :) really awesome though!

    What a treat! Perfect desert on hot summer night. Located in Shanghai Plaza. Parking can be tricky when busy. The establishment offers limited bleacher style seating but it adds to its unique appeal. The ice cream is soft serve with a creamy texture. Flavors vary from traditional cookies and cream to Thai tea, and you choose how it's served up. In a Ah Boong (waffle fish), in a cup or both. The Thai Tea with a red bean filling is my favorite. The staff is friendly and well organized so the line moves quickly.

    Matcha ice cream is mid to the max, it tastes buttery for some reason. other flavors seem fine.

    Finally gave this location a try. Maybe I was right to avoid them…read more Hui Lau Shan is a chain originating from Hong Kong that offers certain fruit-forward desserts, often involving a lot of cold or icy components. Some other spots in town have similar offerings and may be doing a better job at it. I ordered the J2. Jumbo Pomelo & Mango with Sago ($13.95) to share in our group. There was a wide variety of ingredients, generally tasting quite good. The actual mango fruit was soft and super sweet, there was perhaps a coconut jelly topping that was also nice, as well as a coconut ice that felt snowy in texture, a mango custard, and a decent helping of sago near the bottom. However, I wish that the mango ice cream wasn't so hard and icy, and I was disappointed later to realize that we didn't get any pomelo at all. I really enjoyed the pomelo the last time I had a similar dessert. The dining area did seem pretty clean at least, and they offered complimentary cups of water for each of us after I requested it. Napkins are cheap but freely available, and spoons are pretty sturdy despite being disposable plastic. Maybe I'll come back to this Hui Lau Shan location if I'm around Spring Mountain and find myself really craving their brand of desserts. But I'd prioritize different businesses if I were planning a trip.

    Hiyee Rie! She's one of the regular staff members here who has always been friendly and hard…read moreworking. No doubt she's a top member of this company, if not, ehem! Should be! After so many years of coming to Suzuya. I must say, they are very consistent and by now I think I've tried every regular item and plenty of yummy seasonal items. We love the salads when we're avoiding sugary stuff & pair it with a straight forward Matcha. For the desserts/pastries, my family loves the strawberry cake for birthdays. Me, I don't like cake unless it's cheesecake & they have a variety. Personally I do love the Yuzu Panna Cotta (ya I prolly spelt that wrong). && the macaroons are super great, ima MAC kinda guy, so a variety of flavors is a W! For the vibe inside! I love the music not having lyrics, super chill jazzy upbeat. So it's easy to concentrate for conversations, reading and online work. It's always very clean, constant flow of customers, some apparel & grab n go items. The colors are a soft wood, white and green plants all around with some gold accents and a clean appearance of staff, with positive attitudes. If I wanting anything more from the biz, it would be a reward system & larger sized drinks. I know bigger drinks aren't necessarily good for us, so I get it :-/ haha. Either way, 10 out of 10 biz!

    Thank you, Mike, for taking the time to respond. I appreciate your acknowledgment of the other…read moreservice issues I experienced. However, I do want to clarify one very important point regarding my service dog. He was calm, quiet, and completely under control throughout the entire visit. He was not active, disruptive, or vocal at any time. He is a trained service dog, not a pet. I also want to clarify that under the ADA, a person with a service dog cannot be required to sit outside simply because they are accompanied by a service animal. Service dogs are generally permitted to accompany their handlers in areas where customers are normally allowed. A service animal may only be excluded in limited circumstances, such as when the animal is out of control and the handler does not take effective action, or when the animal is not housebroken. Neither of those circumstances applied here. So while I understand your policy regarding active or vocal dogs, that does not describe my dog or what happened during my visit. He was calm and caused no disturbance whatsoever. I sincerely hope your staff can be better informed about the distinction between pets and service animals so that another customer with a legitimate service dog is not made to feel unwelcome or told they MUST sit outside.
