Reviews for Snowtime in Chandler, AZ
Good ice overall, but the mango was a bit unripe which dampened the experience. Would be nice for them to switch it out for... another ripe fruit. Good service and clean dining area with plenty of tables. Got really busy around 8 pm. Read more
With locations in Chandler, Mesa and Ahwatukee, Snowtime is a dessert cafe that serves magical memories in a bowl, a plate, and... a fish (more on that later). I recently came here and had Bingso (Korean shaved ice) for the first time, and it was magnificent.Essentially, just a bowl of shaved ice (shaved to the consistency of soft snow) with toppings, every spoon, every bite remindedme of my childhood playing in the snow and eating snow for the first time. Really, who doesn't like snow? Just say the word anda smile comes to your face. When I think of snow, I personally think of winter wonderlands, snowball fights, and sliding downhillsides. Shouldn't food be that fun? With fun names that will tickle your brain and wet your appetite like Golden Dust,Tira-Miss-You, and Espres-Snow, my personal favorite Bingso dishes are Matcha-Love and Sweet Sunset. Their toppings here arefresh, and their ingredients are high end. At Snowtime they call their Bingsu "Snow". Either way, you can say Snow, Bingso, orshaved ice they will know what you mean. Snowtime also serves drinks too like Espressos, Fresh Leaf Teas, Specialty Drinks, andMilk Teas. In addition, they offer Soft Serve which you can get in a cup or a cool looking crunchy fish cone. Finally, rememberto add the word Bingso to your everyday foodie vernacular. It will be a life long obsession during hot summer days when water isjust too boring and ice cream and froyo too mundane (just joking, I love ice cream and froyo too). Check out Snowtime at theirthree locations! Read more
Although this place is better known for their sweet desserts, I'd like to point out that they also serve a high quality espresso... with consistency. I wanted to wait and review them until I had triple-checked their consistency and I am pleasantlysurprised. Now counting my third visit, I have drank the double espresso, twice hot and once over ice. There is an appreciatedlevel of consistency in their flavor which I admire as a coffee enthusiast. It's got toasty, caramel butter notes, leaning onashen bark, but not too heavily. (hint: your taste buds will have their back blown out if you have the espresso servedaffogato-style over their ice cream) My friends always have the Nutella-filled fried waffle fish and the custard filled minifishes, which they rave about! Can't go wrong there! Would highly recommend as a sweet tooth type of place, or as statedearlier, a hidden coffee shop. Read more
Really good little dessert place right here. Really liked the strawberries and cream signature dessert I got but next time I... will try the drinks. They look amazing. Read more
Finally tried this place and I?m glad I did. The space is clean and trendy. The staff is super friendly and kind. The tiramisu... ice was insanely delicious, like nothing I?ve tried before. The menu selection is wide and varied. There?s something foreveryone. The prices are comparable to Starbucks drinks, but you truly get what you pay for. Read more
This place is amazing! It took me a long time to figure out what I wanted, because many of the items I was not familiar with.... However, they have a TV displaying several of the items, as well as pictures in the restaurant, to help guide your decisionmaking. The employees were SUPER nice, and the restaurant itself is very clean and welcoming. They have some chairs and tablesoutside too, so you can enjoy your ice cream outside. The prices are little high, BUT even the "small" is HUGE, so can't reallycomplain. Will definitely be back. Read more
This was excellent! The cone was perfect, fresh, warm, thick but lite. Usually not a chocolate ice cream fan but this was subtle... and delicious. The employees were so sweet and very patient with my indecisiveness They were very busy after I arrived and theonly negative comment I have is that they mixed up mine and my friend's order ... Her filling in my cone and my toppings in herice cream. Read more
So much FUN! Perfect date night experience. The fish buns were great to play with before eating. I wish I could have seen the... fish cone made from scratch. So delicious, especially with the mini french macaroons. The taro vanilla swirl looked sobeautiful. So many toppings to choose from. I can understand why people go for the bowl rather than the cone. There is aprivate fun room in the back full of positive messages. And a community board where you can put mini polaroids or businesscards on. I so want to come here again. This place is very popular. there are long benches for waiting patrons. There is adoorway directly into the next door rotating suhi bar so you don't have to go out and around. Read more
