Let's be honest. Shaved ice isn't that hard to get wrong. Plus, it's expensive. I feel guilty spending so much on frozen water sometimes Lol. However, people seem to love it , regardless. So, if you like shaved us ( like my kids do), Vayla's is a good choice. They've got great flavor combos and the syrups themselves have a nice taste to them. A little bit beyond just the sugary syrup you often get with this type of dessert. Aside from that, service was great and they were exercising all precautions with the pandemic.

You can't go wrong with some shaved ice on a hot sunny day here in South Florida. This spot offers a variety of flavors with a few toppings to choose from as well. Shaved ice has become a guilty pleasure of mine... Lol, it's definitely nostalgic especially if you grew up here in South Florida. If you find yourself in the Falls or are in the area this is a great place to satisfy your sweet tooth! I spent around $11 when I came with my boyfriend and we got a water bottle as well so it's definitely inexpensive. I highly recommend this spot. read more

I have never heard of a place that does snow cones. They usually sold on the side of the road or in the stadium. I was very impressed. They have a wide variety of choices of flavors and toppings. All flavors are not artificial flavors either. They even have flavors that don't dye your clothes too. Which is wonderful for children, and their clothes lol . Store located right by the Michael Kors Store in The Falls Mall... read more

So I loved the texture of this shaved ice, very thin but heavy and dense. Not like a snow cone where it's bits of ice. The portions are huge! The small is almost like a quart of Chinese food. Price I guess is reasonable since it's trendy but overpriced for ice. There are plenty of flavors to choose from along with different combinations. There isn't really anywhere to sit inside or right outside. read more

I tried really hard to love it and I think it had more to do with the flavor I picked vs anything else. I had the smores flavor and it just didn't taste right. My daughter had the blueberry and that was actually really good. The store is in the inside corner of the strip mall and I almost missed it, but it was very clean with lots of seating. I would have just liked a better explanation of the toppings and mix ins that I could of had. The guy there was very nice, but didn't really explain much even though he asked if it was our first time. Not giving up on Vaylas, going back for a different flavor and toppings. What are some of your favorite combinations? read more

AMAZING gem located in the heart of kendall, nestled right in between two awesome dinner spots - tacos & tattoos and pizza project!! Vayla's shaved ice is just what Miami needed right in time for the summer heat. If you have ever been to Hawaii these shaved ice are perfect summer treats and Vaylas knows how to make them just right. So many flavors to choose from we had a hard time selecting - we got a simple cherry- that is always just perfect. a banana/chocolate shell - i was hesitant but went on a limb and am so glad i did, WOW it was so so soooo good. and the kids had rainbow which was a hit - my 3 yr old was upset at us for trying his without asking permission bc he wanted to eat it ALL by himself!! The service was super friendly and the place was spotless clean. We are glad to have this close to home and will be back again real soon!! read more

Yummy!!! The shaved ice was just the right balance of fruity and sweet. But the best part is the creamy ice cream that is nestled underneath the refreshing bundle of tasty and colorful snow. By the time you reach the ice creamy it has been infused by the flavor of the ice on top leaving you with a super creamy version of the flavor you chose. My husband myself and my baby loved it. I look forward to returning on those upcoming hot Miami summer days. read more

I'm a big fan of shaved ice and went in one day with my sons. As much as I had high hopes for it, the shaved ice was not my favorite. We ordered two small Rainbows which had icing and sprinkles on top. But it was just too much sugar! My kids ate a few bites of the shaved ice but mainly concentrated on the toppings. After the toppings were gone they didn't want any more of the shaved ice. It's not the same course texture of granizados. Possibly the too fine shaved ice caused it to melt in about 30 seconds and leave a liquid syrup of colors. I really wanted to like it but I'm just not a fan of their version of shaved ice. read more

Tried several samples until I saw they had a Dubai chocolate sundae, in which I ended up getting and it was pretty good. At my second visit, I came on a weekday afternoon and it wasn't so busy, there were 3 people behind the counter, but only 1 actually working. The other 2 didn't acknowledge me or even say "Thanks for your patience, she'll be with you shortly." But I understand it may be lack of customer service skills. When I was their age, I didn't really talk unless I was talked to lol. Turns out the other two kids were working behind the scenes preparing ice creams to film for social media. Also, they didn't have the sticky mango shake they were marketing on socials, so I'm going to assume it's only available on the weekends because the main girl working on our ice cream orders said she's working on that bad currently for tomorrow (Saturday). She didn't specify if it's only a weekend special. So I'm omitting a star for lack of communication, but the rest of the stars remain for yummy ice cream! This time, I got guava cheesecake and white macadamia -- a great combo! All in all, I'll still keep coming back to try their unique flavors. Maybe next time I'll get the 21+ flavors! FYI, it's a quaint, small place with limited parking in the plaza. If you go with friends, I recommend carpooling! And if you have a big family coming on the weekend, it's not a guarantee to get a table, nor is it a cute plaza to walk around with ice cream at hand. It truly is a grab and go situation with minimal seating.

Love the ice cream flight concept. A sampler of all the flavors you want. Brilliant.
