Mango Bingsoo & Injeoulme toast combo! Service is just the right amount of time! This place is always full because this is meant to be shared with one or more friends. We had a hard time finishing this up between two. But it was delicious and... not too sweet ;) read more

Delicious bingsoo! We ordered two bingsoo for three girls who love a sweet treat, the Strawberry Cheesecake and Mango which were ready in about 20 minutes. Plenty of people, but still plenty of seating outside! You can tell it's a great treat to share with a group, perfect for any time of day. I love the cheesecake bites in the strawberry cheese flavor, the creaminess combine perfectly with the slightly sweet and tart strawberry! Just wish this fruit was a bit sweeter. Our mango bingsoo was delicious! I did not expect the fresh mango to be so perfect. I was pleasantly surprised. I just wish this flavor had a touch of mochi on top for an additional bite. read more

Sul & Beans - Fresh Mango and Strawberry Cheesecake - Desserts Near Me - Irvine, California

I specifically suggested my party of tourists to go here because they had already tried Meet Fresh and we needed an alternate dessert. It is located in Diamond Jamboree. Due to there being 3 kids in the party, I didn't get to eat a lot of it, so from what little I was able to eat, it was good and significantly different than Meet Fresh texture and taste wise. However, since more people in my immediate social/tourist circle know the brand of Meet Fresh better, this place doesn't provide the same bragging rights for them. After we were done and stood up, the next customer sat down immediately in the seats we were not finished vacating. We had 3 purses left over and had not finished picking them up before they just jumped in, so you have to be fast to vacate. This experience just made me prefer takeout more, but I think my tourists wanted air conditioning and there was not enough outdoor seating for our party. Maybe next time I can eat a quantity more befitting of a smaller party. read more

I've had Sul & Beans in South Korea and was so excited to have it in the U.S.! Love the bingsu options, the servings are huge. Definitely can share one bingsu with 3-5 people. The coffee is strong and not very sweet. There's a couple of tables inside and outside. It's in the DJ plaza, so parking is busy and limited. Service was nice but not super quick. Highly recommend coming here for dessert! read more

Sul & Beans - Mango Bingsu - Desserts Near Me - Irvine, California

Sul & Beans is a great place to come and get dessert. One ice can feed around 2-3 people, and it comes in a variety of different flavors. Each type of dessert I have gotten here has always been good. Sometimes the fruit ones can be a little sour if the fruit is not in season, but besides that it is still very tasty. The employees are always working hard as the place is usually busy, especially at night. There is a good amount of seating, but even that can get packed. I have ordered to-go from here, and can say that whether you eat there or order out, the dessert is always delicious. read more

So refreshing on a hot summer day! Perfect for 2-3 people. Strawberry or mango are my favorite. The team is very nice and efficient. I like that they have us take our trays to be cleaned. Saves the team time to make the shave ice milk. The vibe is nice and clean and friendly. Parking can be a challenge depending on time of day. So if it looks a busy in the parking lot, grab a spot when you see it! read more

This was actually my second visit because I wanted to try more of their specialties. The first time, I had their Chocolate Bingsoo, and it was amazing. I'm honestly not a big fan of bingsoo, but this one changed my mind. The ice was so smooth and creamy, almost like ice cream. It wasn't overly sweet, but it kept you coming back for another bite. This time, I decided to try their Mango Special since it's one of their bestsellers. I love mangoes, but unfortunately this one was a bit too sour for my taste, so I didn't enjoy it as much as the chocolate version. I'd still come back though. The Chocolate Bingsoo is definitely my favorite, and I think I'll give the Watermelon Bingsoo a try next time. read more

Came here on a warm day. Their shaved ice and toppings are nice. The shaved ice consistency is ground fine like fresh snow. It's not the small pebbles of ice like snow cones nor the shaved ice slices of other Asian shaved ice spots (but very similar). The toppings here cover the shaved ice and you're able to get some in every bite until finished. The bowls are relatively large so you can definitely share between 2-3 people if needed. read more

On the way back from SD, my parents and I wanted a sweet treat, which is why we stopped by here!! The place was decently sized, with ample tables, but they were close to each other. Both bingsoos were delicious and refreshing. Mango Bingsoo: 4/5 only because the mango was quite sour, but the fluffy shaved ice and condensed milk really made it enjoyable Taro Bingsoo: 5/5 because I love the flavors of taro and toasted coconut together. This was bursting with flavor and the chewy mochi really hit the spot!! Overall, I loved the Bingsoo and will be back soon to try other flavors! read more

The shop was clean, had plenty of indoor seating, and there was ample parking in the lot. We ordered the Oreo bingsoo, which was easily enough to share between two people. I also love that they layer the toppings throughout the bingsoo, so every bite has a good balance of flavor instead of everything being just on top. Service was quick, and one thing I appreciate is how consistent the quality is across all of their locations. Definitely a reliable spot when you're craving bingsoo! read more

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 - Order to go - Desserts Near Me - Irvine, California

Sul & Beans is a known quantity to me and I will say that they do offer several locations in California so I'll start with that. Where it gets disappointing is when I recall for my last 2 visits to Southern California based locations have left me wondering if I'm ever terribly unlucky with their product or their shaved ice is always produced like ice pebbles, and not like the smooth, creamy shaved snow their competition offers. I most recently visited their Irvine location and on this busy evening, I ordered their Strawberry Bingsoo. After about a 15+ min wait, my buzzer rang, and I picked it up at the counter. Fortunately a table had just opened up. Otherwise there are tables outside their shop as well. Once again their Bingsoo was more crunchy than smooth and velvety in my mouth. There were strawberry slices on top with a few mochi pieces, and a little condensed milk drizzle on top. The middle and bottom layers were just crunchy ice. This was also gravely disappointing. Parking on weekend evenings look to be challenging as it was for me. 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

Really good bingsoo place. This is a chain and so happy that they opened one here. Good food, good service. Parking is tough though because its in Diamond Jamboree.

we ordered mango bingsoo and it came out little when compared to other who ordered the mango bingsoo too, it literally looked half full compared to others and whoever made it said it weighted the same.

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

I'm not new to the Sul and Beans franchise and their menu offerings, as I have visited several other locations in California. However, this was my first visit I've made to their Irvine location. They're situated in a large strip mall full of restaurants and food shops. Parking on a Friday evening was a nightmare and it took over 30 mins to find a spot, and even then we considered ourselves lucky judging my the large number of cars still circling. I was in town recently, and after dinner(elsewhere in Irvine) we decided on Suul and Beans for some Bingoo dessert. We shared 2 Strawberry Bingsoo among the 4 of us. This visit reminded me why I normally don't choose to come here, except for convenience reasons, like on this evening. Their Bingsoo is too icy and is not creamy and pillowy soft like other BIngsoo shops. Their Bingsoo almost tastes like shaved ice with fruit on top. Also, the condensed milk was given to us in a small cup and wasn't mixed in the bottom layers of each bowl. So, it was icy at the bottom, all the way to the top and then some strawberries with a condensed milk drizzle, a few mochi pieces, and then we were given a small cup of the condensed milk to sweeten it up ourselves. I don't think I will be back, except if I really don't have a choice for a dessert nearby. read more

Kinda crowded, but that's just the luck of the draw. Super yummy bingsoo. I liked the mochi toast more. It's definitely a slept on menu item. We did end up finding seating outside despite the crowd. read more

I recommend this place to everyone. It's so good. I love fruit, but the chocolate brownie bingsu is my go-to. The ice just melts in your mouth, you have to try it. It's shareable too so it's a good dessert after a meal with friends. They do have in and outdoor seating, but this place is very popular, there's always so many people you have to wait for a seat most times. Workers are always very nice and there's self serve water section too. read more

Such a refreshing dessert shop! In the land of heavy ice creams and dense cheesecakes, bingsu is the perfect choice to satisfy that post-meal sweet tooth without you feeling like you're gonna burst or have a tummyache by the end. We ordered the Oreo with strawberries on the side and it hit the SPOT! Not overly sweet, but so good you want to keep having more and more. This spot is located in Diamond Jamboree, so it's perfect to stop by and grab after getting a nice dinner or before some late night karaoke. Service here is great as well and they get the bingsu out to you quickly with such picturesque presentation! Definitely coming back here after dinner the next time I'm in the area!! 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

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

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

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

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

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

DELICIOUS!!! any day is a good day for bingsoo, but on a hot day this place rocks! I ordered one of their best sellers, the fresh mango. They serve it on a bowl which is a mound of fresh ripe mangoes packed to the bottom with perfectly shaved ice. The condensed milk muddy the ice making into a cold creamy yummy dressing. You will eat it until you take the last sip like if it was a cereal bowl. Overall this place is clean and the staff if really nice. read more

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

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
