Sul & Beans is a great place for late night dessert. The shaved ice was light, fluffy, and perfectly 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! read more

Got the strawberry cheesecake bingsoo and it was honestly so good. It was really light, and the toppings of the strawberry and cheesecake made it super refreshing. It also comes with a side of condensed milk so you can adjust the sweetness accordingly. We also got the injeolmi French toast. It was really good, but definitely on the heavier side. I'm personally not a big French toast person, but it was still really good and my friends really enjoyed it. There's a parking lot downstairs and they do validate for 2 hours i believe. Service was friendly and gave good recommendations. There's also plenty of seating inside. Overall, really enjoyed it and would come back! read more

Sul & Beans - Strawberry Cheese Bingsoo - Desserts Near Me - Los Angeles, California

After our KBBQ gorge, we grabbed dessert at Sul & Beans in the MaDang Courtyard in Ktown. It was popular and busy, with a line out the door. We ordered the banana milk bingsoo, and it was enough for all of us. We poured the condensed milk on top, and dove in. I have had bingsoo before, but it's been a while. What a welcome return! Parking in the plaza. read more

Best bingsoo ever!! Everything is made from scratch and only the freshest ingredients are used. I have tried many flavors, which have all been delicious. The menu is huge! I always get bingsoo and the snow is soft, light, and fluffy every time. If I had to pick a favorite bingsoo flavor, it would probably be the Fresh Mango Bingsoo. The mango is sweet and juicy, pairing perfectly with the snow and condensed milk. Super refreshing on a hot day. Green Tea Bingsoo would be a close second. The red bean is very creamy, while the nuts add a nice, crunchy texture. Aside from the bingsoo, the toasts are also good sweet treats. Each toast is cut into 8 pieces, so it is easy to share. There are various toast flavors, but you can never go wrong with the classic injeolmi toast. Weekend nights are always super busy and there will be a waitlist. Luckily, there are lots of tables, so the wait should not be too long regardless if you are in a small or big group. Do not forget to get parking validation when you are at the register! read more

Got the Choco Bingsoo and Green Grape Ade. The drink was a bit sour but good nonetheless. I really like the chocolate toppings on the bingsoo. Seating can be tricky if it's busy and they validate parking. read more

Insane wait on a Saturday around 9pm. Like a ~45 min wait. Write your name on the clipboard, and someone will call out your name + party size, so stay close. Many parties didn't show up, so they would continue down the list. Order @ the register, and pick up your order at the counter. Very tasty, they are generous w the filling and toppings. Huge variety of flavors, something for everyone. Our group of 6 split 2, and felt it was the perfect amount. read more

I came on a Friday night and this place was packed! However, the staff and service were efficient so I was seated and served in no time.

Sul & Beans - Injeolmi Bingsoo - Desserts Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Located of Western Ave in Los Angeles in Koreatown. Parking is available in the structure where H Mart is. This place is a multi level with other eating spots, shops and movie theater. This place has a good amount of seating but being a popular spot it can get packed here. I got the strawberry match it was ok. Also tried the banana milk bingsoo as well that my friend got. Service was ok one of my friend's drink was made and ready but the buzzer wasn't working we were wondering what was taking so long since we all got our stuff, when he went to counter he was told yeah the buzzer wasn't working they could of said something or called it out or something. Overall the place has done good bingsoo and the drinks were good. read more

bingsu is what you THOUGHT it would taste like to eat a snowball as a kid... like a sweet icey marshmallow??? u could also gaslight urself into believing its "healthy" too since its just ice..... riiiiiggggght (ignores behemoths of condensed milk) we got the taro bingsu and LOOK AT THAT COLOR??? ITS MORE PURPLE THAN BARNEY?? the taro flavor was in the powder atop the shaved milk itself, so the bites at the top were the sweetest. I wish the taro flavor was mixed in the whole dessert, but nonetheless still up. Condensed milk also makes up like half my bloodstream, i love that stuff, so i poured it EVERYWHEREEEE. but the COCONUT AND RED BEAN PULLS IT ALL TOGETHER!! i get red bean instead of boba when i go to tea shops like UGH so yum. coconut and taro are just such an amazing flavor combo as well. AND THAT MOCHI MMMMMM LOOK AT IT!! final notes is that I wish the bingsu itself was sweeter and not relying on the taro powdered on top and condensed milk you pour on, but idk don't trust me im borderline diabetic. but one portion served THREE OF US so this is truly one of the best desserts to share with friends. service was quick too :) read more

Came here on a weekday at noon and there was no wait! Quickly ordered and got water at their station. Bingsu came out and it was great. Automatically gave me two spoons for me and my friend. Mango was super sweet and it was great with the sauce on the side, which we were offered refills of if wanted! Parking in the structure is convenient and can be validated at restaurants. read more

We have a Sul & Beans location in Dallas as well, and it's very solid! This one is also quite good; my friends and I ordered a few things to try, and I really liked the injeolmi bingsoo. The flavor was fantastic, and the ice is so soft and creamy. It's a great dessert if you're looking for something lighter. read more

Very crowded, popular Korean shaved ice shop. Various choices, but some fruit shaved ices are seasonal. I tried injeolmi so this review may be skewed because it was unfortunately plain tasting, so it just tasted like a mountain of ice until you get to the absolute bottom where the thinned out condensed milk is. Recommendation: get a flavor that's strong tasting and sweet to balance the dullness that the ice. Restroom and validated parking available. read more

Sul & Beans - Peephole to the bottom - Desserts Near Me - Los Angeles, California

After a lovely dinner down the street, we couldn't leave LA without some dessert in our stomachs. If I'm going to be forced to sit in traffic, I need something to help hold me over. The plaza was bustling and there was a line forming out the door over at Sul and Beans, which something to be expected on a Friday night. Luckily, the staff members were going through the line quickly. We ordered Injeolmi Bingsoo and some coffee to help fend off the food coma. For those who aren't familiar, Injeolmi is a finely ground powder with a nutty aroma, commonly used with chewy rice cakes made from dried soybeans. Its savory profile balances the sweetness of the condensed milk, creating the perfect "not so sweet" combination. The brightly lit open space was refreshing as K-town sometimes induces claustrophobia without forewarning. Sul and Beans is always the safe choice if you're looking to grab a table, some hot/cold dessert and be able to talk with your friends until your mouth falls off. read more

I had a sweets craving after our LNY dinner, and since we didn't feel like going out, we decided to order bingsoo from Sul & Beans via Uber Eats. The bingsoo took over an hour to arrive, and I at least expected it to be packaged in a noodle-bowl-style container to better preserve the layers. Instead, it showed up crammed messily into a 32 oz plastic deli container. It genuinely looked like a crime scene -- incredibly sloppy with red-colored syrup and compote distributed all over. YOGURT BERRY BINGSOO The yogurt base was pleasant, but the fruit was unripe and intensely sour. The fruit compote and condensed milk helped balanced it out a bit, but enough to save the dessert. Sadly, I wouldn't recommend it. I'm not sure why we thought this was a good idea in the first place. Lesson learned, bingsoo is not meant for delivery, especially not from Sul & Beans. read more

I was craving dessert and this dessert spot has been on my ktown hitlist for a while and it was nearby. I ordered the green tea bingsoo and my friend got the yogurt berry bingsoo. I love their soft shave ice base and the layering. It's very smooth. It's refreshing and it's not too sweet. They give you condensed milk on the side. You can pour on top if you wanted to add a touch more sweetness to it. There are a decent amount of tables available. It was busy but our order still came out within 10 minutes. There is a parking structure nearby however we were lucky enough to find street parking nearby. This is forsure one of the premium dessert spots in ktown. Try it out if you like. :) read more

Sul & Beans is located inside a plaza similar to Daiso but on the second floor right next to Somisomi in Koreatown. This place serves a tasty shaved ice treat. I ordered the strawberry, which is light and refreshing. I came with a big group at night, and they had a little notepad in the front to write my name on. We had to wait a little bit but it was fine. We were just enjoying the talk and chats outside. My friend had the chocolate and that was also pretty tasty! The menu has a lot of different varieties so pick one and check it out! It is worth the wait and something to try. read more

Sul & Beans - Our table of yummy dessert - Desserts Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I love to eat snow. Now I know you're assuming the kind that falls from the sky but think I might prefer the dessert kind the best. Sul & Beans is serving up the softest shaved milk base with a numerous array of toppings to choose from. It's a mandatory dessert after Korean bbq for me because it leaves your second stomach (aka: your dessert stomach) satisfied without overwhelming you. I got the strawberry cheese bingso and as you can see from the photo they really do load it on! Plus as you dig deeper there's strawberries hidden that pop up as you eat. Quite lovely! I don't believe they charged for extra condensed milk like other places which is always a plus. Everything was so delicious and cold. There's a parking structure but it does get crowded on weekends. Overall this spot never fails to satisfy. Final Verdict: I'm snow into this place!! 10/10 read more

Sul & Beans - Strawberry Cheese Bingsoo - Desserts Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I think this is still my favorite bingsoo place. Ordered just one... instant regret. Got up and ordered another one. The MANGO is so delicious. Ordered the OREO one coz that's the hub's fave... and though it IS ACTUALLY good, I think I prefer the fruit flavors for shaved ice. Workers are friendly. Food is only made when you order so expect a bit of a wait. Shop is located on the 2nd floor. There is a parking structure attached to this center. read more

Came on a Friday night and there was a long wait to sit inside. We did have the option of to go and then finding a place to sit outside. There were two tables outside but people waiting to sit inside were sitting in the chairs so that was super annoying. We decided to order to go. Although the presentation of the to go is not as pretty. They even give it to you in an insulated bag. It still hits the spot. We got the mango, strawberry, green tea, black sesame. My favorite was definitely the mango. The condensed milk was on the side so it wasn't too sweet. read more

wow what a great dessert spot!! today we tried Sul and Beans after a humongous meal. there's metered street parking outside (can be difficult to find a spot) and they do have 2 restrooms inside with codes that show on your receipt. we decided to order the earl gray bingsoo, which was a huge portion. it took maybe 10 minutes to get our food. we were served the bingsoo on this nice platter with a side cup of condensed milk. the bingsoo itself was sooo tasty!! there was a lot of graham cracker powder on the shaved ice, and the most delicious part was this sweet earl gray flavored cream on top. when you mixed everything together it was like a flavor bomb. I wish they gave us a little more of that cream on top but it was still delicious anyway. I think there was also cocoa powder underneath all that bingsoo lol. the place itself is inside one of the large shopping plazas in ktown, so you can eat some shaved ice and then go check out other businesses like daiso and aladdin used books. i'd like to come back here and try more flavors!! read more

Got the green grape bingsoo and it was super refreshing. Perfect portion size for sharing with friends and it's not too sweet!

Definitely want to try other flavors on their menu! read more

Sul & Beans - Desserts Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Sul & Beans is easily my favorite when I'm in Korea (different name, of course), but this is what we have in Koreatown! My favorite is the shared similarities, and seeing it evolve from what it was a decade ago brought feelings of nostalgia. Thankfully, parking is easy as they validate for two hours in Madang Plaza. My friend and I visited to try their Yogurt Berry Bingsoo. It was nearly $18 after tax and tip, but the bowl was nicely layered with berries and shaved ice. Did I say layered? Yes. What I enjoyed the most was that they even layered some fruit into the middle of the shaved ice (versus having it only ice). Most places that do shaved ice leave nothing in the middle! Service is as quick as they can get even though it may take about 10-15 minutes during peak hours. Water is self-serve, and if it isn't sweet enough, you can also drizzle on a side of condensed milk. Overall, Sul & Beans is the perfect spot for a sweet treat after any meal (or it could also be your next meal). read more

I can go on and on about this shop because this is one of the most amazing shaved ice shops around. Located next to Somisomi in the Madang Shopping Center (2nd Floor) this shop can get extremely busy especially during the evenings but the line moves pretty quickly with plenty of seating inside and some outside as well. Love the various menu items as there's just so many options to choose from, but my wife recommended Mango Bingsoo as this is one of the most popular orders around. Portions are massive so sharing a bingsoo with one other person is perfect. Our bingsoo didn't take too long to come out (5 minutes) despite the shop being busy during a weekend afternoon. 1. Mango Bingsoo - High quality mangos that taste super fresh, nice decoration for a simplicity photo, and has a great balance between sweetness & juicy. Totally a tropical vibe when tasting the bingsoo. Overall, this is one of my favorite bingsoo shops around, super high quality bingsoo, fast wait times even when busy, and nice atmosphere for any type of outing including dates & hangouts. Plust points for parking validation that gives you free parking for 2 hours within the plaza. Will most definitely be back to try all the other bingsoo options along with their signature toasts read more

The wait for a party of two on a Friday night was chill, and only like 10-15 minutes. Got seated immediately, the host was kind. We ordered an early grey bingsoo which I felt was really unique!! It was a little pricey though... $18 after tax? but it could definitely be shared between 3-4 people. it was way too much for 2 people though. The earl grey bingsoo was unique, the ice was delicious and nice and flavorful all throughout. Big fan! Might even prefer this one versus oakobing :0 read more

Food: the mango bingsoo was really good! It had a lot of flavor and the mango's were fresh. It seems like it was a big hit because almost everyone ordered it.

I came here because I wanted to try the sweet potato latte of a few places in LA Koreatown and this was the second place I tried. The sweet potato latte here was not as thick as I would have preferred, but the taro bingsoo was amazing. It had good flavor throughout the shaved ice. The service was good, the staff was very informative about parking validation. They validate for two hours. The ambiance was elegant, clean, and simple. read more

My family had 3 different Asian shaved ice/bingsu places while visiting California and this was my favorite. It has the classic texture and style of the Korean bingsu you'd typically see, but they do it super well. The texture is icy but still super creamy at the same time. We got the taro flavor which was amazing. I believe all the bingsus only have one base (traditional milk base) and then the toppings change what type of bingsu you'd get. For the taro it's covered in a taro powder with dried coconut flakes, red bean, and mochi. The combination of the coconut flakes with the taro powder made a perfect taste of sweet with earthy. You'd think taro powder alone wouldn't be enough, but you get great taro flavor throughout. The mochi was also super nice and soft. Only negative about the bingsu is I wish we got more mochi. But be warned, the location was very busy on a Sunday night. It was so busy you had to put your name on a waitlist to be seated inside, definitely not a casual spot to chill. That being said the workers are very diligent and are very kind. The next time I go to California I will definitely be coming back! read more

Stopped by Sul & Beans Koreatown and tried the Fresh Mango Bingsoo (3/5). Got it to-go, and it came in an insulated ice bag, so the presentation wasn't as pretty as dining in. Mango was fresh overall, but a few pieces were a bit sour. Decent-sized mango chunks though, and still refreshing on a hot day. Service was decent, and there's plenty of seating if you choose to stay. Not spectacular, but good for a quick dessert fix. read more

Delicate shaved ice! Great dessert spot to go with friends to share a shaved ice because they are gigantic. Recommend the black sesame bingsoo. The mochi on top is great. The slivered almonds and dried dates add a nice crunch. They will validate your parking. Located on the second floor! read more

We're currently in this restaurant. We placed our order at 8:05 p.m. and it's 8:46 p.m. now, and our order is still not ready. The lady at the counter told us to wait another 10 minutes.

Sul & Beans - Strawberry cheesecake bingsoo - Desserts Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I've been to Sul & Beans 3 times and each of my visits have been fairly underwhelming. There's always a wait for a table at night and crowded and loud inside. But it's convenient that they validate for parking and is in a plaza. Here are my thoughts on the bingsoos I tried: Coffee Bingsoo: bland and I did not like the red bean topping at all. It just didn't go well with the bingsoo. I don't like how it's just coffee powder on top of the bingsoo rather than having infused coffee flavor within the icy/snowy part. Strawberry Cheese Bingsoo: nothing stood out. The cheesecake bites were good though. Once again, the flavors weren't infused enough. Mango Bingsoo: Mangoes were not sweet at all. They were also kind of warm which didn't pair well with the rest of the cold dessert. Overall, there are much better dessert places in KTown than Sul & Beans. I truly only come here because my out of state friends always want to try it when they visit. Will make a mental note to tell them it's mid and not worth the hype :/ read more

There's never a bad to day to swing by to get some bingsoo! This location is inside the MaDang Courtyard in Koreatown on the 2nd floor right next to Somi Somi! This place can get crowded fast. I usually go at off hours to beat the rush. I used to get their glass bottle strawberry milk but they no longer have it there and you have to go to Somi Somi now. So just a FYI for that. The bingsoo I ended up ordering was the strawberry cheese which has cheese cake bites and lots of strawberries! It was pretty good and refreshing on a hot LA day. This location also has toasts and other drinks as well. read more
