    They make everything behind that curtain lol
    Oliver P.

    So my actual drink was good but my experience ordering wasn't good :/ I ordered ahead of time so that when I got there I could just go in and grab my Honeydew Slush but after 15 mins, my order wasn't ready yet. I started to wonder if there was only one person making all the drinks? There's one kiosk where you can order and every now and then someone will come out from the curtains to bring out orders. Just a weird set up and very slow service. The place is busy with CSUN students which is cool but almost 30 mins for 1 drink is way too long! Especially when I ordered ahead of time. People who were ordering from the Kiosk inside were getting their orders before me? haha I'm sure it's a good place and I just had a bad experience today!

    The Ice Bar got a February promo on all matcha drinks! Just an fyi. This time I ordered a Viet coffee however with sea salt foam and 50% sweetness. I tried using the self serve kiosk. You choose a percentage for tip though, instead of entering it manually. Not a fan of that. Unless I may have missed something? Aside from that the drink was good!

    The Ice Bar is my perfect escape from the business & chaos of Northridge. Located in a strip mall with lots of parking, The Ice Bar is the best place to go hang with friends, grab a refreshing drink or bunker down to study for hours on end. I've done all 3 of the aforementioned things on many occasions. I keep it simple & always order the Plain Fresh Green tea, it always comes out ice cold & consistently tastes great. There's a self serve kiosk if you don't feel like ordering with an employee but the employees always seem happy to help & answer any questions I have. They offer a handful of snacks & a pro tip: their ranch is DELICIOUS! I truly love The Ice Bar & I'm so so so happy to have it here in Northridge.

    Stopped by The Ice Bar to pick up our favorite Iced Seasalt Foam Viet Coffee, Iced Coconut Coffee and Strawberry Milk Tea. As always, The Ice Bar never disappoints. Thank you to Heather for the consistent excellent customer care and service along with the quality coffee drinks.

    I had the best experience here, heather was so helpful and nice. The ambiance is very cool, lots of seating and I love that there is a touchscreen order screen for fast and easy ordering. I tried the strawberry milk tea which was amazing! If you like how milk tea tastes you'll love this as much as I did. It's a true milk tea flavor with a hint of strawberry. 10/10! I also had the chicken popcorn which was perfectly cooked, perfectly crispy, crunchy, and golden. I had it with ranch on the side. 10/10! Lastly, I had the strawberry dalgona with the matcha foam. The BEST drink I've ever had, truly. The whipped dalgona with strawberry flavoring was so good alone but with the thick matcha foam on top, it was even better. It tasted like true rich matcha flavoring and it's delicious. I will be coming back for this drink alone. I'm exited to try more drinks on the menu and to try the other food items as well. Thanks for having me! See you soon :)

    Jasmine Rose Tea good

    Came here with a friend after having sushi in town. I had the jasmine milk and it was really good. This Boba place was a minute or two from another really busy Boba place that my husband and I have been to before and their drinks were OK. At this Boba place, we were able to talk as it wasn't super loud and they had plenty of space to sit. you can order on the screen, and ready in a few minutes. I would definitely return to this place again.

    A place introduced to me late night after my son's PCN. Good boba and impressive mural homage to Kobe and LA. Overall clean and polite staff. A cool spot in Northridge!!

    $30 dollars down the sink.

    On August 14th at 11:30 PM, we were hoping to enjoy some boba and decided to visit Ice Bar, as they were open until midnight. We ordered an oolong milk tea, a sea salt jasmine tea, and a taro milk tea. Unfortunately, the oolong milk tea seemed rather diluted, and the sea salt jasmine tea was over beyond salty. We didn't get the chance to try the taro the same day because we assumed it is going to be horrible. When we got the chance it was diluted as well. So, I called to complain and talked to the manager. She said the sea salt is supposed to be salty. Since we didn't drink the taro that night, we can't get a refund or exchange because tea sets?????? I never had this issue at Ice Bar. Sadly it did!

    This is Carl

    On September 1st, I had an extremely troubling experience at this location with the manager on duty, Carl. When I arrived, no staff were at the front counter, and because the restroom requires a code, I went through an unlocked side door to ask for assistance. As soon as I politely asked for the restroom code, Carl immediately became hostile, yelling and telling me to "get the fu#k out", effectively kicking me out without any valid reason. I explained that I had already placed an order and asked about my refund. Instead of addressing my concerns professionally, he again said, "Don't come at me like that, bro," in a rude and threatening tone. He refused to provide a receipt and only said that my refund would be credited back to my card in three days. Carl's conduct was aggressive, vulgar, and completely unacceptable, especially for someone in a managerial position. His behavior created a hostile and intimidating environment for me as a customer, for no legitimate reason. Being kicked out for politely asking for assistance is not only unprofessional but also reflects very poorly on the business. I strongly urge Ice Bar management to take immediate action and seriously consider terminating Carl's employment. Staff who behave in this way are damaging the reputation of your business and putting customers at risk of being treated aggressively or unfairly. For reference, I have included a picture of Carl at the bottom.

    Very much a college area location. They offer different discounts with specific criteria periodically, but offers can't be combined. If you're a student or have a student, take advantage of that discount. I had their Taro Milk Tea and it was quite good, perfectly sweet. I also enjoyed their Popcorn Chicken, seasoned well, crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside. Portions are pretty good too. There are several booths to eat at but they can get taken up pretty quickly depending on the time of day. The service was helpful and friendly. Unfortunately, at the time that we went, they were playing very loud heavy metal music and it was driving me crazy. I know I'm getting up there in age, but I feel like any normal person would just want moderate volume and maybe more a neutral sounding music? LOL! Anyway, enjoyed the food, but that part sticks out in my mind.

    They have a kiosk to order now. no employees come out to even help the line or take orders on the side. They call out a drink order and run back into the kitchen. I recommend to order your drink half sweet, they make it super sweet here!!

    my friend loves this place so we went after dinner. I had it once and didn't think much of it but thought I should give it another chance since she was saying good things about it it's located next to a baskin robbins and the parking lot is a bit small, but I don't think people stay there too long so finding a parking spot was easy we ordered on a self-serve kiosk inside and there were lots of options to choose from! I ended up getting the milk foam jasmine green tea and it was actually really good! the foam made the drink creamier and it had a nice balance. the tea flavor wasnt too strong but it was still a good drink overall! we didn't interact with the worker too much aside from picking up our drinks but I think that happens when you order by yourself. overall, pretty solid boba spot in the area and I'm glad my friend suggested this place!

    Smoothie drink and teas

    They haven't changed! Perhaps their art work inside but the services remain the same! And that's a good thing I can't remember the last time I was here!! I'm glad I stopped by after so long. This time I had a side of mozzarella sticks (5) and two dipping sauces ranch and mango habanero!! Oh my goodness the mango habanero is FIREEEEE is so yummy!! Almost made me want to try their chicken wings with this sauce! For drinking choice I had their taro milk tea! Delicious Ambiance is always a vibe! They play hip and trending music

    The dalgona matcha was good, but the boba inside was frozen solid. I couldn't even bite into it.

    Great Vibe, Delicious Bowls & Fresh Empanadas~~~ Located in…read morea busy shopping plaza in Northridge, Ubatuba Açaí is such a gem! Walking inside, the space is brightly lit, super comfortable, & welcoming. One of the best things about this spot is that they offer different sizing options for their açai bowls. Since I was meeting up with a friend for brunch afterward, I went with a tiny dessert-sized portion this time. I customized mine with chia pudding and almond butter, & it was incredibly flavorful and healthy~ My friend went all out with a regular-sized bowl loaded with bananas, blueberries, chocolate shavings, and all the works. Beyond açai, they also serve freshly baked empanadas every single day with awesome flavor options like chicken, beef, pork, & spinach & cheese. They've really thought of everything to make this a great place to hang out~~~ They have a TV playing funny animal videos and an entire area packed with tons of board games you can grab and play. There are plenty of seating options both inside and outside, plus a clean restroom for customers. Whether you're looking for a quick, healthy snack or a cozy spot to chill with friends, this place completely nails the vibe. I'll definitely be back to get my açai bowl fix~~~

    Went after lunch so my friends and I could chat more and have a little after lunch treat/drink…read more Storefront was very clean, bright and plenty of seating. Cashier very friendly. Good spot to hang out with a few friends. I order the mango passion smoothie and it only came in one size for $13. I think my cup was 8-10oz. Located in busy strip mall. Parking is tight. price range: $$
