Their ice is so soft and fluffy, it's not even like your typical shaved ice. More like buttery, flakey snowy goodness.
I had the black sesame with rice balls and coconut puree. OMFG. Heaven in a bowl!! The black sesame may sound weird, but it's really, really good. It has a unique flavor that is hard to describe. Kinda sweet, but not overly sweet. I also tried the taro, but it wasn't as good and didn't really taste like taro.

Tip: If you check in on Foursquare, you get a free topping when you order a regular with a topping. Good deal! Regular is $3.50 and toppings are 50 cents each. You really can't miss this new gem on Sawtelle.

I'd stick with the mango. The black sesame and rice balls doesn't sound very appealing to me.
