Always nostalgic for me since I'd come here often in high school. This place is always crowded, and understandably so since it's a good sweet treat option. Appreciate that Sul & Beans is one of the sit-down dessert spots that is open late. We came at 9pm on a Thursday and it was still full inside, but the dessert always comes out quick. We got the strawberry cheese shaved ice. The presentation is always beautiful with a generous amount of fruit and syrup. While there's better shaved ice textures out there (this one is slightly icier if that makes sense), I do still think this one is soft and fluffy enough. It's on the less-sweet side and is a lighter dessert so you luckily don't leave feeling super stuffed. Always a great satisfaction for my late night, post dinner sweet tooth :) read more

Came here for bingsu after seeing how great it looked on Yelp. I ordered the mango bingsu and the choux cream toast. I had high hopes since the place was busy, but unfortunately, I was pretty disappointed with the taste. While the presentation was pleasing, the mangoes were not the soft, sweet Asian mangoes I expected, they were hard and sour. The shaved ice was also underwhelming, as it didn't have that light, melting in your mouth texture and instead felt very icy. The toast was decent, with a nice buttery flavor, and the cream wasn't overly sweet, which I appreciated. Overall, I'm glad I tried it, but I wouldn't come back read more

Sul & Beans - mango bingsoo and choux cream toast - Desserts Near Me - Cupertino, California

Sul & Beans is a Korean bingsu place in Main Street Cupertino. Honestly they have a lot to work on. I'm writing a 3 star review but I'm really rounding up here. The place is decent and clean but the wait time for a massive bowl of ice is crazy. We first ordered the mango bingsu but changed it when we saw everybody else dumping the fruit on the table. They did give us a sample and it was hard and sour. We switched to the taro bingsu which was a questionable improvement. It was a big dump of ice (as expected) but the only taro was the fake taro powder. The red beans were absolutely loaded with sugar and the three tiny blocks of mochi were weird (not sure how else to describe this). Service was friendly enough but sloooow. 20+ minutes to get dessert. Snowtime in Campbell is much better. read more

Spacious restaurant space with lots of seating. You order at the counter and sit down with a buzzer. Very aesthetically pleasing 3D models of each of their bingsoos at the front. The portion size is big enough for you to share with 2-3 people. However, I felt like the bingsoo was a little lacking. The ice portion isn't as milky as some other stores and overall it tasted like artificial sugar that was hard to finish. Still a nice option if you want something sweet after dinner but perhaps share it with 1 more person than you're planning to so that it stays short and sweet. read more

Sul & Beans - Strawberry bingsoo - Desserts Near Me - Cupertino, California

Not a bad place for bingsu but it can get really crowded. They typically only have 1-2 server so there is sometimes a wait on weekends or dinner time. I always go for the fresh strawberry bingsu and it comes with 4 mochi cubes. Sometimes the mochi is frozen cause the ice cream is too cold but their bingsu is not too sweet. You can also get extra condensed milk on the side and free water to wash it down. The place is really clean for how busy they tend to be and there is a good amount of seating since you can sit outside as well. Just warning their coffee is really strong. Otherwise really nice place for that sweet craving read more

Tried the Bingsu today and it was very average honestly. The milk shave didn't have much flavor, and the cheesecake pieces were mostly just crust with barely any actual cheesecake. Kinda disappointed with the quality since this used to be one of my favorite dessert spots. read more

Tried sul and beans for the first time with some friends and thought the flavors they had were so solid! Green grape: tasted creamy with fresh grapes all throughout with some aloe chunks inside Black sesame: mochi on top with a solid sesame flavor Strawberry: my personal favorite because there was fresh strawberry and a bit of the strawberry jam or puree inside that doubled the strawberry flavor. We didn't even end up using the extra condensed or evaporated milk. I would definitely come back to try the mango. I was super sad that it was out of stock. If I remember correctly I think each one was around 12$ which is pretty good ! read more

Taro bingsoo and the injeolmi toast! Shared these 2 dishes with 3 other friends and it was the perfect amount. If you're looking for something refreshing and not too sweet, this is for you. The toast is a bit sweet and savory. The bingsoo is perfect for a warm sprint day, or any day in CA Overall, this place is good and solid, but I wouldn't say it's anything incredible. If you're looking for a location to eat not-too-sweet desserts, hang out with friends, or just find something to do, this is one of the places to be. Would I come back again? Sure, but I wouldn't seek it out. read more

I wasn't impressed. $15 for a hill of ice, topped by red bean paste and a piece of cut mochi, cascaded by sesame powder and some nuts. All squeezed into a small bowl. The matcha latte tasted just like my home made one, without sugar. It was fine. It was a popular spot attracting younger crowd and family alike. Nice service. The male staff didn't let me tip as first timer. Lovely and robust atmosphere to sit, relax and chat. The social animal side of human's approves, even though you know you are paying hefty price for ice. read more

Improved quality Just wanted to provide an update. It's been awhile since I've been here and my last experience was pretty mediocre. Stopped by here again and got the berry yogurt bowl which seemed significantly better than last time. The fruit was fresh and the yogurt infused well with the snow. They also provided the condensed milk on the side for your own titration which was a nice touch. The portion is still on the smaller size, but the price is commensurate for the portion so can't complain too much here. read more

Came in at about 9 on a Monday night and ordered the Strawberry and Cheese Bingsoo! Short wait with only a few people in line but quite a few orders stacked up. First time i came here I ended up re ordering so i could try another flavor (back in 2020) today I couldn't even finish the one. Not sure why but the strawberries were really sour and even though the employees were kind enough to give us another cup of the diluted condensed milk- the bing soo wasn't quite sweet enough. The cheesecake was also kind of flavorless. Overall it was pretty busy/loud in here. Service was fine but it seems like the two people on staff were also working the somi somi next door so there was a bit of a wait for everything- dessert then the extra milk then the to go container. Def needs some work to get back to where they were. read more

My go-to Korean bingsu place! The shop is nice and bright, located right next to Somi Somi in the Main Street Cupertino plaza. Parking can definitely be tough, especially on weekdays, but there's a lot and garage nearby. It can get super crowded and have long wait times, but I always find that it's worth it. I've been coming here for years and the Oreo bingsu is my go-to flavor. Not only is the bingsu delicious, it's one of the cheaper bingsus in the area. I've noticed other bingsu shops have significantly higher prices, so this stays my go-to. read more

I came here one evening and ordered the strawberry cheese bingos to share. The bingsoo is plenty for two people. The bingsoo had fresh strawberries and pieces of cheesecake. Also had some condensed milk you can pour on top to make it a little sweeter. This is a cute shop to go to with friends, family or for a date. read more

Love bingsoo and Korean shaved ice! This spot is located conveniently in the main Cupertino area with plenty of restaurants nearby. Parking isn't too bad but definitely a walk from the lot. The inside is a bit small and there wasn't AC in the day we went but overall nice spot to go to for a quick treat. We ordered the black sesame and mango bingsoo. The mango had some bits that were super sweet while others were biter just based on the mangos they used, but still was good overall. I think compared to other bingsoo shops, I thought the price was very reasonable. Overall, will be back! read more

My favorites are mango and earl grey! Wait time takes a while as there are always a lot of people but it's possible to snag an indoor seat if you wait. Or just take a nice stroll around the plaza with your buzzer while you wait. Parking also kind of sucks in that area but we tend to park in the other plaza and walk over to this one. read more

This place is amazing! It had been so hot lately that my friend and I were more focused on dessert than dinner. After looking around, we decided bingsu was the way to go and headed here. It's located in a pretty busy shopping center, so parking took a bit to find. Lots of food/dessert places all around. Perfect for friends, family and dates. We ended up ordering the watermelon bingsu and choux cream toast. Finding a seat also took a bit as everyone seemed to think bingsu was the perfect dessert tonight. We were able to secure a spot near the window and chatted while waiting for our order. While they did have a good amount of seating, there were many people who were still ordering and waiting, so lots of chatter all around. The noise level made having conversations possible, but slightly on the harder side. I was very happy when our order came up - and the wait did not disappoint. The watermelon bingsu had the right amount of fruity sweetness - not overly articifical sweet - and melt in your mouth creaminess. The choux cream toast was crispy on the edges, fluffy in the middle and had a good amount of the choux cream. While both were good - we preferred the bingsu as it was light and refreshing. The toast needed a little more oompf to make it stand out - whether a slightly thicker bread, slightly creamier/sweeter choux cream or something else - as it was missing something. Overall, a yummy experience and I plan on coming back many times - especially during the warmer months. read more

Sul & Beans is one of our favorite bingsoo spots, and we keep coming back for a reason. We're regulars here and always love both the desserts and the service. The shaved snow is delicious, refreshing, and consistently well made, and everything we've tried has been great. A special shoutout to Jimena, who is always so nice, welcoming, and friendly. She really makes each visit feel warm and enjoyable. Great desserts and great service every time. Highly recommend Sul & Beans! read more

Wondered in here because Meet Fresh was closed on Christmas Eve and I might have found the next best thing! It's fancy shaved ice with some extraordinary flavors. I really wanted red bean that day but the sweet corn special caught my eye so I ordered that. It was about 16.50$ (-1), which isn't cheap by any means and the wait was more than 5 minutes for take out. While waiting I noticed the shop was bright and airy with huge windows so a great place to hang with your friends while They gave me the dessert in an insulated bag and a tiny block of ice in my to go order! It wasn't summer but the addition was very thoughtful and I appreciated it. The dessert itself: worth it. No seriously. I didn't have much of a standard since this is the first time but I've had this Korean dessert, but I have had my share of shaved ice from Hawaii and Taiwan. I can confirm that the snow was great - so light that it scooped and tasted creamy. It helped that my flavor didn't have much syrup in and on it. It had from bottom to top: - the snow was sweetened in some way that is not condensed milk. I guess it was just part of the frozen mixture - snow laced with freeze dried and roasted corn - corn flakes! - healthy dollop of whipped cream with a good amount of roasted corn kernels on top It wasn't the best looking dessert but I ate it ALL. The container was the size of a large soup in Chinese takeout order and I didn't share. I am sure it's in the to 5 desserts of all time for me, the unfair advantage being I've never had corn snow before Highly recommended and will be back. read more

Pleasantly soft snowy shaved ice. Whereas I find the Hawaiian and Italian versions too hard, sugary, and bland, this Korean version is far more enjoyable. Strawberry shaved ice was light and refreshing. The sweet milk sauce came in the side, which was nice so I could control the sweetness level. It was a particularly warm day so the cashier warned us it would be a 25 min wait. Seating available inside, though it can get loud. read more

I tried the fresh mango bingsoo, it came with a small side of condensed milk. I thought because mango is in season now, this would be a good choice but I actually but found the mango to be fibrous and tangy, it was not pleasant. The snow itself was very soft and light but I would say it only tastes good as long as you add the condensed milk (but we ran out very quickly). It's easily shareable between 3 people, I thought it was too much for 2. I dined in but I saw the way they pack their to go order in a mini cooler bag and it's so awesome! If I were to come back I would try something different. It would be a great option for a hot day. They also have several toast and drink options (coffee). In terms of the place itself, it's quite warm and noisy. There is plenty of seating read more

The place wasn't too busy today but it was starting to pick closer to 7:30pm. I think the cashier work for both Sumi Sumí and Sun & Beans which is interesting. We did have to wait a few minutes to put in our order but it wasn't more than 5 minutes. The place itself was a bit messy. The tables could have used a wipe down and there was trash on the floor. I got the Oreo Bingsoo. I'm not a huge fan of shaved ice but it was good. It was a big potion and my bf and I were able to share one. My bf said that the Banana chocolate bingsoo was actually better so maybe if I am in the area I would try that one. read more

Sul & Beans - Oreo Bingsoo - Desserts Near Me - Cupertino, California

I wouldn't say that this is my favorite type of shaved ice place. Wanting to try something new, we got this after dinner and they all look very pretty on display so we were excited. We got the strawberry cheesecake bingsoo and wanted to get toast but they were out for the day. It was a bit hot inside so we were able to get a seat outside and waited for our order. It came out decently quick and indeed looked like the display. It had a ton of strawberries on it but I think was lacking on the other parts. There wasn't even condensed milk (but sounds like you can ask for extra so maybe it was just our lack of knowledge) and not that many pieces of cheesecake. Once you go through the top part of it, it was pretty much just shaved ice and maybe the syrup if it melted through. I'm used to the amount of toppings that you get from Meet Fresh so maybe my expectations were something like that. read more

Classic Korean shaved ice with fresh mango and condensed milk. The dessert was pretty good, the mango was fresh and sweet. The ice was a little grainy and could have been more fine in texture. The place was overrun with high schoolers and the wait time was over an hour just for a table. It took over 30 minutes for our dish to come out. read more

I stopped in here with a friend after eating a full lunch nearby. Ok, if you like shaved snow, this is the place to be. My friend and I tried the strawberry cheesecake. It was pretty darn good. Cheesecake, shaved snow, fresh strawberries with condensed milk. Yum. At times this place gets crowded especially on the weekends. Ambience is quaint and peaceful with an olive tree in the center. But, I do like this place more than Sulbing. It's not as sweet. Sul and Beans offer some drink choices, toast selections for snacks and shaved snow. Yum! read more

After a nice little dinner, my partner and I wanted a sweet treat, so we decided to go to Sul&Beans. They had a new banana milk flavor so of course we had to try it, but it was a little weird for me. The wait was super long as there was only person working and he had like 7 bowls to make. Anyways, strangely enough they use a sort of banana pudding powder on top of the ice which is weird when they could've used banana milk to just pour over top. I think that would've made the dish a whole lot better, but my partner actually really liked the powder, so I guess its up to personal preferences. read more

Omg, my friend was craving bingsoo and we had to try it here. I've never tried it before, and we shared the chocolate banana. Oh my goodness, it was heavenly! The chocolate and banana complemented each other with some condensed milk poured on top. No words! And the whipped cream has perfect creaminess. The strawberry matcha was okay. I would try it again or maybe something else. I wasn't a big fan of it; I didn't taste any strawberry. It mainly tasted like the crème foam and the matcha. read more

I visited this place after several years of not coming here, and it was just as packed as I remembered it to be. The tables were full, and my friends and I had to wait for a short period of time before being able to sit down at one of their many wooden tables. We chose to sit around the main circular area to the side of the place. Our group ordered the Black Sesame and Strawberry Bingsoo. While some of our friends wanted there to be a greater proportion of fruit or other ingredients compared to ice, I enjoyed the plentiful ice on a warmer day. For the Strawberry Bingsoo, I wish it could have been slightly sweeter, but still enjoyed the fresh strawberries nonetheless. A classic in Cupertino's Main Street, Sul & Bean still remains a dessert place for many to enjoy. read more

Relatively hard to find street parking . You can park further way and then walk over . The orders came out very fast . Highly recommend this place for dessert ! read more

After a salty dinner, I needed something cold and sweet. I was craving for some ice cream. So, I decided to try Sul & Beans. The dining room was crowded and loud. Seating was limited. There are no table service here. Grab a table, clean it yourself. Place your order and get your food at the counter when the pager goes off. Came here for some Bingsoo (shaved ice). Ordered a strawberry Bingsoo and a Black Sesame Bingsoo. Both came out quickly and looked delicious. However, after a spoonful it was flavorless. Just a full bowl of shaved ice with several slices of fruit on top. The black sesame bingsoo had a hint of sesame. They included a very small cup of sweetened condensed milk. Which helped with the flavor but it wasn't enough. Not sure why it's so busy here...should of went to a boba shop instead. read more

Unsure about the sub-4 average rating, but I'd give them 5/5 for their Injeolmi Combo which contains toast and bingsoo. Waited less than 5 minutes for our order even though there were plenty of other customers. Workers were attentive to us (asked if we were ready to order while we were debating, and gave us more time when we weren't ready) and were very polite. I'm a huge fan of Injeolmi and when I am in Korea, I also get injeolmi bingsoo. I thought the bingsoo here was soft, fluffy, and just enough sweetness and injeolmi throughout my whole bowl. I didn't like the mochi as much as I think it's a little harder than I like my mochi to be, but the crispy almonds and dates (I believe) were a great touch and adds texture. The toast was a pleasant surprise! I liked it a lot - it was crispy on the edges and soft in the middle, had a hint of honey, and almost like a mochi-like center doused with injeolmi. Crispy almonds a plus! Serving the toast cut up makes this super easy to share and eat! I love that they had this as a combo. Just bingsoo would be great, but also having toast along with the bingsoo made our snack even better. This was a perfect dessert for 2 - might be a lot for one person. read more

This place is such a treat if you're craving bingsoo or something sweet. The mango bingsoo was refreshing and loaded with fresh, juicy mango chunks on top of fluffy shaved ice, it paired perfectly with the condensed milk on the side.

Both desserts were delicious and perfect for sharing. read more

the go to spot for bingsoo on a hot day! we thankfully went on a not too busy day and was able to grab a table of four. there are so many options to select from for both bingsoo and toast. we went with the strawberry bingsoo! it came with four pieces of mochi , condensed milk and a generous amount of strawberries! i love that you can also ask for refills for condensed milk as well (i personally feel like they don't give enough). the ice was the perfect softness although there were chunks here and there. i did like the fact that there were strawberries also within the ice as well and not only the surface. the injeolmi toast had a mochi consistency! it was a great combination with the strawberry bingsoo. read more
