We decided to come here after a spa and it was the perfect treat. Light and fluffy. We tried the strawberry cheese and sweet corn. My mom and sister loved the strawberry cheese. My absolute favorite was the sweet corn and i'm drooling thinking about the next time i'll be able to have it again. The condensed milk on the side was not needed because the sweetness was just perfect. Not overwhelmingly sweet. There's plenty of seating inside and outside. read more

Sul & Beans - strawberry cheese, sweet corn - Desserts Near Me - Irvine, California

Food: The shaved ice here is amazing! Please try the corn, chocolate banana, and strawberry! There is quite a bit when you order, so you can easily share between 2-4 people. Service: The staff is friendly, and if you bring your condensed milk cup up to them, they will refill it as many times as you'd like!! Ambiance: This spot has tables inside and outside. People are also frequently exiting and entering, which makes getting a table pretty easy! For your dishes, they also have a conveyor belt, which makes cleanup easy. Such a good place to go for a sweet treat after a meal at DJ! Excited to hear all of your thoughts! read more

This is probably the best shaved ice I've had! They're generous with portion size and with the fruit they add on top. I ate sooo many strawberries! Employees were friendly and efficient! I genuinely think it's a talent to make food look so pretty. The space was clean and inviting. The location can be hard to get to during peak hours. Be prepared to fight for a parking spot if you're don't want to use the parking garage behind H Mart. read more

Yum!!!! Sul & Beans is delicious, refreshing, and clean. Located in the Diamond Jamboree plaza, it offers Korean-style shave ice (basically snow- it's incredible and melts in your mouth. It's not icy at all) There's tons of different options (I would check to see what fruit is in season) and they offer free water to wash off the stickiness. Parking can be chaotic in this plaza, but I definitely think the service and the desserts make up for this. read more

Horrid parking as it's located in DJ + good service. We order their mango bingsoo and injeolmi bread which I really liked! I would recommend the injeolmi bread for sweet tooth lovers as it's very sweet but powdery. I prefer Sul & Beans over Oakobing. read more

ive been to sul & beans a couple times bc of friends! I personally prefer shaved snow vs ice but its still good. I like the abundance of fresh mango but it sucks when you make your way towards the bottom bc it starts to lack flavor. the matcha one was pretty good tho and flavor was pretty complex throughout! service is pretty standard. you only really interact with staff to order. then they give you a pager and you put the trays away yourself when finished! its always busy when i visit. Its a pretty popular spot for dessert! people sit and hang out here. clean, minimalist design / seating here read more

Really like the bingsu here! I like the strawberry cheese and earl gray the most. Staff is friendly. Tbh my favorite spot for bingsu in OC and arguably LA as well. That being said, place is kind of small for seating and parking can be very horrendous. read more

1/2 Still on a full-on shaved snow / bingsu kick, so I stopped by Seoul and Beans to keep the streak alive. Nice, modern space, in & patio seating, good but plain vibe. Rookie mistake on my part though--I didn't scan the QR code to see the picture menu and played it safe with the Oreo bingsu. It was... fine. Milk shaved ice with cookie crumbles, whipped cream on top, and a small side of condensed milk. Strong start thanks to the whipped cream, very boring middle, then a slightly soupy finish that improved once the condensed milk got involved. Next time I'd definitely go fruit-based. This is clearly meant for two people, but I powered through solo anyway. Small but annoying detail: the water cups are tiny--shot-glass tiny. Ice cream makes you thirsty. Unless the goal is to push drink sales, that one didn't make much sense. Parking tip: Diamond Jamboree on weekends is a mess. Skip the hunt and use the parking structure--it's way easier. Didn't try the drinks yet, so this rating is just for the bingsu. Worth a visit, but order smarter and scan the photo menu first. read more

If you're wanting a refreshing dessert this is your spot! Bingsu, Korean shaved ice is perfect for Southern California weather. So many flavors to choose from with seasonal specialties. The strawberry is a favorite - not too sweet but so tasty. For something different, the Oreo with the shaved ice is great too. read more

Parking is a nightmare :( But the dessert here is worth it!! So stuck it up friend, you will not regret the 5-6 laps around the parking lot looking for a spot. I've had only their strawberry and their mango bingsoo. Its soo good!!! Its rather large so I recommend sharing. I've had it in the spot. They have circular tables to share with your friends but I have also taken it home to eat and they put it in a little cooler to maintain its consistency. Both are great, however at home you will not get the pretty presentation and if you try to freeze it for later well, the ice will get stuck together and will not longer be that delicious K-shaved ice we all like. Overall, I recommend this place. read more

Sul & Beans - Fresh strawberries bingsoo - Desserts Near Me - Irvine, California

Sul and Beans is a good three star spot, especially if you're just trying to satisfy a bingsu craving. I got the strawberry bingsu and it was good, with fresh flavors and a nice level of sweetness, but it didn't quite stand out compared to other places I've tried. I do wish it had mochi, which would have added a better texture and made it more memorable. It was very busy when I went, but the staff were all really nice and handled everything well. Overall it gets the job done, but I'm still on the search for a top tier bingsu spot. read more

I really like that they're open late. The strawberry cheese bingsoo was so good. It has pieces of cheesecake in it. I got it to go and it came with a little cup of condensed milk to pour over it. It's hard to find seating inside sometimes but they also have outdoor seating. read more

I haven't has the urge to stop by and Sul & Beans since my last bad experience at a different location. However, since I was in the irvine area and this shop looks to be a relatively new addition to DJ I decided that it might be worth stopping by. To my suprise, it was a positive experience. I got the green tea bingsu since I haven't seen it before. I would like to note that if you want more condensed milk, you can always go up to the counter and ask for more. For me and my friend, what was provided was enough. I loved all the nuts and extra crunchy bits that were added. It really brought a nice contrast to the soft ice. The bingsu was nicely soft and fluffy as you'd expect. The added red beans were a perfect touch to it. It was a bit salty and sweet and paired really well with the light green tea flavor. I also really loke how there was a pocket of red bean layered in the bingsu too. read more

This banana milk bingsoo is absolutely delicious. This is one of my favorite dessert spots and it never disappoints. It was creamy, sweet, and crunchy... super good! All their bingsoo pairs so well with condense milk. This place gets packed on the weekends! Service is always friendly and the ambiance is more of a college kid vibe. read more

Delicious!! Soft, flavorful, nutty, a great cold dessert. Red bean and injeolmi pairs really well with the black sesame. The bingsoo comes with condensed milk on the side, but I liked the sweetness without it. Interior is sleek and clean with a wood/natural influence, although indoor seating is limited. Plenty of outdoor seats! Fast service despite being crowded, friendly cashiers. I recommend for a good way to finish the night! read more

One of the best tasting dessert has to be fruit on the shaved ice with two add-ons, Sweet Red Beans, Misugaru (Roasted multi grain powder) with extra condensed milk syrup that are served for two with $22 total price. We ordered the best tasting Bingsu (Shaved Ice) with Mango and those three added toppings served on the side. It was all top five stars. My Mukbang Friends: Go forth and do not hesitate! You won't regret it! Life is too short to have missed out on Bingsu at Sul & Beans!!!! read more

Sul & Beans is a popular Bingsu (Korean shaved ice) spot in the ever popular Diamond Jamboree. It's been a while since I came to the plaza and wow is it still crowded. At 11 PM, it was still a little hard to find a parking spot! The service is nice and quick, but they definitely need to do better cleaning the dishes. The interior has a good amount of seats. I like the design but it is a little small! The food itself is very yummy! I especially was surprised by the Sweet Corn Bingsu! It was sweet yet slightly savory that provided an excellent contrast. Overall, Sul & Beans is a very solid dessert spot to check out in Irvine! read more

My friend and I were craving a sweet, refreshing treat so we came for some bingsoo. The portions are large, we could have easily split one between the two of us. I really enjoyed the flavor and texture of the earl grey bingsoo, however I wasn't a fan of the graham cracker dust as a topping. It was so creamy and light! My friend got the chocolate banana one and enjoyed it as well. read more

my ranking for the flavors is mango - banana milk - berry yogurt - strawberry - early grey. the only reason why earl grey ranks last is because it has a little too much chocolate taste to it for my liking. other than that you can't really go wrong with any flavors. service is good, not great, but they're not mean whatsoever. this irvine location is bigger and more spacious than the buena park one, it also has outdoor seating which is pretty cool for hot days read more

The best bingsoo spot and perfectly refreshing for a hot summer day. We ordered the Green Tea and Fresh Mango Bingsoos and both were so delicious and really great quality. They were so beautifully presented and the distinct flavors of each one really came through. One is the perfect portion size to share between 2 people. The Green Tea bingsoo came with crunchy almonds, red bean, and topped with some chewy mochis. For the Mango bingsoo, I loved that there was a huge portion of mangos on top. They definitely do not skimp out! I appreciated that you can ask them to refill the condensed milk so that you can drizzle more in the middle. They also have small bowls available by the pick-up so that it is easier to share. There is both indoor and outdoor seating available, and they have a self-serve water canteen with cold water. It does get packed so it may be difficult to find a seat. The interior is very modern and clean with a cool nature wall. Such a tasty sweet treat and will definitely be back! read more

AMAZING! Best bingsoo I've ever had, and I've tried so many places. Sul & Beans is located inside the Diamond Jamboree in Irvine, so parking can be tricky. There is limited seating inside and outside, and they give you a little beeper for when your order is ready. We got the taro bingsoo and amazing is an understatement. There was a variety of textures, from the chewy mochi on top, the fudgy sweet red bean, the creamy shaved ice and the crunchy toasted coconut rim gave it a nutty aroma. Wow. Truly a harmony of textures! The black sesame cheese toast was also delicious. It was sweet and perfect chewy, the perfect pairing to a sweet bingsoo. Overall, incredible and I would highly recommend. read more

Been to sul & beans so many times! Such a great place for a late night sweet treat that isn't too heavy or rich, but filling and delicious. My favorites are the earl grey, oreo, and strawberry cheese bingsoo! Their beverages are pretty good too. The injeolmi toast is a great addition if you're wanting something warm! Seating is tough sometimes but summer is great you can sit outside! Also when taking to-go, they supply a great package for the bing-soo read more

Can't go wrong with a classic bingsoo. What I especially like about this place is that they also put fruit in the middle so that it's not just an icy bottom. They also give you condensed milk on the side so that you can control the amount. I like putting it throughout eating it since all of it at the beginning makes it too soggy. Sometimes the fruits could be sweeter, but at least it's fresh! read more

We tried this place last night after checking on Yelp for a good dessert place in Diamond Jamboree. Definitely a great choice. This is a Korean dessert place. Sul means snow in Korean. Their desserts are shaved ice based. Apparently some or all of them are also bean based, but I sure didn't taste any beans in the dish I ordered. This is definitely a dessert for at least two if not three. Ordered the chocolate Bingsoo. It was delicious and really hit the spot. Like most East Asian desserts, it wasn't too sweet either. Just perfect. The different layers also add to the taste and experience, Seating can be a bit tight during busier times. Just keep that in mind. They have plenty of choices too. read more

Every time I come to Sul & Beans, it never disappoints--and this time was no different. I ordered the mango bingsoo, which honestly is such a classic and a go-to for a reason. The ice is so soft and fluffy, almost like freshly fallen snow, and the mango chunks were sweet and juicy, not overly ripe or sour. It's layered perfectly with condensed milk, so every bite stays creamy and flavorful without getting too heavy. What I love about their bingsoo is how refreshing it is, especially on a hot day or after a long week. It's not just dessert--it's a whole vibe. You can sit back, relax, and just enjoy something that hits the spot every time. I've tried other places, but there's something nostalgic and comforting about the way Sul & Beans does it. Definitely recommend if you're craving something light, sweet, and satisfying. Might try a different flavor next time, but mango will always be the OG for me. read more

Came here for a sweet & savory treat and tried the mango bingsoo and corn cheese toast. The corn cheese toast was delicious: melty, savory, and crispy in all the right ways. Unfortunately, the mango bingsoo was a letdown. The mangos weren't ripe at all. They were tart, hard, and lacking flavor, which was surprising given it's summer and peak mango season. The shaved ice and presentation were great, but it just didn't hit the mark without sweet, juicy fruit. Would come back for the toast, but I'd probably skip the fruit bingsoo unless I knew the fruit was fresh and in-season. read more

This is by far the best dessert I have ever had in my LIFE! It was not at all what I expected, when I was brought here and told it was shaved ice I thought the shaved ice would have the flavor but it turns out you mix the flavor in yourself, which makes it perfect for preference! It's such a cute spot and there's usually always someone getting up so you'll always have somewhere to sit! We got chocolate and mango, I have to say they're big portions, we just wanted to try both, I love chocolate flavored anything and this had brownie pieces that complemented it perfectly! I'm not a fruit dessert person but the mango Was phenomenal! 10/10 the mango was the perfect consistency and the perfect lever of sweet with the condensed milk on it and on the side, I will be back! I can't wait to show this place off to my family, I know they'll love it! read more

sooo good, the bingsoo here has perfect light refreshing flavors that aren't too sweet. We got the earl grey and the mango and both of them were delicious. The fruit on the mango was perfectly ripe and sweet. It was a hot day so it was pretty busy but we got our order pretty fast considering how many people there were. Lots of families, couples, and friend groups were sitting around enjoying their desserts. Could use more seating considering how busy they were when I went but we still managed to snag a table. read more

I love their Korean-Taiwanese fusion shaved snow. I got the strawberry flavor and my husband got the ube with toasted coconut flakes. The strawberry was refreshing and not overly sweet. I especially loved the tiny rice cake (injeolmi) toppings. The ube was also delicious. I'm not usually a fan of coconut flavors, but the combination with ube was excellent. I'm already craving it and want to go back again. The portions are very generous. The bowls may look small, but I couldn't even finish mine. Next time, we'll probably just share one. They did forget to include the red bean I ordered on the side, but when I brought it up, the staff immediately fixed it for us. I just wish they had more indoor seating, as the current layout is not very functional. They have an oversized food prep area and a large unused space near the order counter. Aside from that, I highly recommend this place. read more

parking was kinda annoying because the plaza gets so lively, but the store itself was pretty empty. lots of seating available inside! i wanted to try something new, so i opted for the banana milk flavor (bingsoo) and tbh it was just okay... the granola on top was overpowering at times & the flavor was very mild. not bad, but i've definitely had better. read more

Their bingsoo was disappointing. I got the green tea bingsoo, and it was bland and boring. The most flavorful part was the red bean topping, which was just ok. The ratios were off; they were lacking on the condensed milk and green tea syrup, and so I was left with just ice. The interior was cute, but service was basic. I do not recommend Sul & Beans. read more

After a buttery dinner at Kickin' Crab nearby, my wife and I were in search of a sweet treat to cap off the night. We were originally headed to Somi Somi, but a new banana-themed menu at Sul & Beans caught our eye -- so we decided to check it out instead. We ordered the Banana Milk bingsoo (they also have a Banana Choco alternative) and to my surprise, this easily ranks in my top 3 bingsoos in the states. If you grew up drinking banana milk in Korea (the barrel shaped ones with the green top), this is a nostalgia bomb in the best way possible - it's just a creamy, icy dessert version of it. My wife also ordered some hot tea to wash down the pound of butter we consumed beforehand. The tea was ok. The shop itself is minimal and clean, with plenty of seating inside and additional tables around the outside perimeter. It was pretty packed when we visited (Friday evening), with everyone yapping over bowls of bingsoo, but we had no problem finding a spot to sit. Only downside? The Diamond Jamboree parking -- a total nightmare. Be prepared to circle for a while and stalk nearby patrons going back to their cars. read more

Sul & Beans bingsoo is always a great, not too heavy dessert! We ordered their fresh strawberry bingsoo and it was a perfect amount for 3 people to share. Their shaved ice is very milky and creamy instead of icy. Their fruit-flavored bingsoos are delicious and come with some mochi bits on top and a side of condensed milk. However, parking is brutal in this lot and seating is very limited. I definitely recommend the Buena Park location over the Irvine location, due to more parking and seating. read more

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

I'm still kind of new to the bingsoo game, but what's not to like about fresh fruit over shaved ice with some condensed milk. Sul and Beans is located in Diamond Jamboree, so make sure you plan accordingly if you're going on a busy night. But what I like is that its open pretty late most days (11:00-11:30p), so you can satisfy your cravings when it suddenly hit. I ordered the strawberry bingsoo, but took it to go because all the tables inside were taken. The store itself is very clean and decorated well. There's a few tables inside which you'll have to grab quickly before they're gone. But overall, I really enjoyed the dish. It had a light and refreshing taste with a great strawberry flavor. It's the kind of dessert that doesn't make you feel too heavy or guilty after you eat it. I could see myself coming back and trying their other flavors like the mango or green grape. read more
