All I tasted was sweet and creamy grease.I got pineapple, coconut and was supposed to be Pinacolada, with cream. I think I would have enjoyed plain ice a lot better. Usually there is a distinction in flavors but not at this place. There wasnt a coconut flavor taste or a pineapple.π« It looks beautiful but thats about it. Sorry guys, wish I could have been more upbeat about the place. The workers are a great team. They work really well together. π€
Outstanding shaved ice, best in Austin! Helps local schools & owner is cool.
Friendly, flavorful, and fun! Real fruit and purees used for toppings as well as a plethora of flavors (all remarkably tasty). You can mix flavors with no upcharge. I feel a little guilty with the low prices yet best quality Ive ever experienced. I am fortunate that a location is so close to me. These can be addicting.
Very robust and unusual flavor choices. You could visit here twice a week every week and still not exhaust the flavor options. This is a walk-up βfood truckβ parked near the main road under shade trees in the parking lot of a Bowling Center. There are picnic tables to sit around as you enjoy your frozen treats. I tried the watermelon flavor and it was delightful.
$2 for a kids cup, which is big enough for me (it melts quick on a hot day). Can do 3 flavors in the same cup. Can also try multiple free samples. Nice staff.Cornhole game outside. Benches outside.
Cute and delicious! The lady assisting us at the front could have been more friendly.
Fantastic service. Senior community loved their snow cones. Great flavors offered!
The arroz con leche snow cone was amazing. My girlfriend got the Mangonada and said it was one of the best sheβs ever had. Good prices. Good service. No complaints
My niece came in town and all she wanted was a snow cone, so I searched and found this one. I love it and MIL plus all the flavors we will be back again. I have to bring my girls here:)
Super fast and friendly service! The prices were good and the syrup levels were generous. I will definitely go back π
Hands down favorite sno cone place in all of Austin! ππΌ the mexican rice pudding with ice cream is my favorite flavor! Treat yourself and go get one! The prices are really good for the size and toppings they give you. 5/5 recommended!
Texas sized items. Delicious combinations. Love it.
This place is definitely a healthy kind of sweet snow cones place and I love them. You can taste the flavors, itβs not all just sugar.
Honestly the snow cone was really dry (in need of more syrup), and despite getting two stereotypically sweet flavors, had absolutely no flavor. The bottom of the snow cone was hard/dry and had no syrup on it whatsoever. It was so bad that even after sitting for several minutes, it was still dry even with some of the ice having melted. The girl was kind of affronted when I didnβt tip for a single snow cone, which I suspect may have to do with the low quality of product that I received. I got a reusable cup out of it, and the people were kind of nice I guess, but overall, it was definitely a waste of money and I wonβt be returning.
Did you NEED a delicious, flirty, DEATH DEFYING snowcone with the greatest flavors and the best staff? Well youre reading a review about it plus they even have the best pup cup!
This is a top snocone spot for us (SnoMo, Woodys and Sweet Carolines also great). Purple Magic is amazing and you cant get it anywhere else. Prices are fair and they have punch cards. Employees are consistently friendly, and they have other great flavors like Mexican Rice Pudding. Love it.
So much detail they put into their sno-cones. They always make the best ones in town.
Really is life changing! I never new snow cones could be this good
THE! ABSOLUTE! BEST!Unlike most places in Austin that say they have βSnowballsβ, this place actually does!Snowcone = shaved ice and flavoringSnowball = shaved ice, flavoring AND ice cream!
Yummy snow cones. Great customer service.
Go To Shaved ice spot in austin.Great flavors - Thai ice tea and mango lassiGreat service
Seriously game-changing sno cones! Their specialty sno cones are the best I have ever had. Prices are reasonable. Service is fantastic. Great place to visit when its hot!
Great taste! Friendly, Professional service. Most comfortable family area to enjoy shaved ice, in awhile. ππ₯³
I love this place so much. My wife and I have been coming for several years now and it just keeps getting better and better. The kids working there are always super efficient and friendly which is good Bc thereβs always a line (the sign of ant great food truck), and the gourmet flavors are on point! I have so many favorites lol!
Great shaved ice, dreamsicle flavor delish, plenty of room to park and tables to sit down at!!
Refreshing sweet surprise π¦ get the puny colada
They understand how to flavor ice with syrups. However they require more training in customer service and time management. Overall good place to go.
These are always good. The people in the truck are cheerful and itβs always a pleasant trip.
Very good snowcones at a great price. Friendly staff and nice seating area with cornnhole amd cool photo op! Will be back again and again!!
Tons of options and fun flavors! Sizes are on the large side of things for being so cheap, its great on a hot day
Holy cow this place is amazing. I donβt even like shaved ice that much. Was going to get some sweet Carolineβs but they were closed so went over here. 100x better. Sorry sweet Caroline!Went 2 days back to back. Tried mango lassi, pineapple Fresca, tamarind and mangolada. All delicious!!!!!!
I love my snow cone .
Always a pleasurable experience and smiley staff. So many flavors to choose from and toppings.
Very joyful atmosphere and flavors taste awesome!! We surely gonna come back to this place..
Great service, cool location, tasty Everytime!
Couldnt break a $100 bill...SMH.You have a register that Im sure you had some 10s & 20s you could of broken. Ill never be back Ill go to the riverside location where there much more nicer.
If they served grown-up snow cones in heaven, this is exactly what theyd taste like. My favorite is Thai Tea and Cold Brew with an ice cream scoop and whip cream on top. But you cant go wrong, they have the most spectacular menu. Get there before they close down for the winter!
If theres a better spot for snow cones in South Austin, thats news to me. They have a massive selection of flavors and arent stingy w the syrup. Dont be shocked by a line, but the service is quick and friendly. Just make sure to ask for your stamp card to rack up a free cone fast!
Our coffee shop, Radix House, share the parking lotπ. We share customers! Check us out! Shaved Ice is very popular & I am sure good. Great on a hot November day! But coffee is very popular when its hot too!
This place always has the most unique flavors and friendliest staff. Seriously, their offerings are heads and shoulders above any other snow cone type place. Plus the prices are cheap and their reward punch cards means that every few visits with the kiddos means we get one free!
The best raspas in town πand that is snow cone its in the south side
Love Shaved Ice Island! Their gourmet menu is perfectly curated. This is my go to sweet craving spot. Cannot recommend the Mango Lassi or Thai tea (add a scoop of vanilla) enough!
This place will change your life. These are nothing like any snow cones I ever had. Pure magic. And if you donβt like it (they have many flavors) they will make you another one free. Try the mango (real mango purΓ©e) or the Mexican Rice Pudding. Read the billboard when you drive in.
This place is so good that iβm still currently in the parking lot writing this review. staff were super friendly. i ordered a vanilla cola ice & itβs exactly what i wanted & so cheap. go for the ice, return for the vibes.
Ew there was WAY too much syrup, it doesnβt come with a napkin, itβs expensive, and itβs just not good πππ
Good place for a snow cone
This place is so good. A lot of standard shaved ice flavors along with some pretty interesting custom flavor creations. They also have a ton of toppings to take your flavor to the max. The prices seem too low for what you are getting. Definitely stop by and grab some ice
Best shaved ice in ATX, hands down.
Absolutely amazing place
Always on point with my mangonada!
The mint lemonade was amazing, and the regular flavors are good, too. Theres great shade for parking and standing in line, but the wait wasnt long at all. Well be back!
Very delicious and friendly service.
This little shaved ice place is great. Tons of flavors, toppings, flavor combos (I didnt even know you could make a spicy shaved ice) and atmosphere. I will definitely be returning.
Really good shaved ice alot of flavors love it best place in austin Ill say
Didnβt rlly like it and the snow cones were watered down sorta and didnβt taste that good to me i would recommend Bahama bucks my personal opinion but they did have good consumer service
If I could give 10 stars I would. One of the best snow cone places I have found since I moved to Austin. Cucumber lime with chamoy is my go to flavor. Great prices on their snow cones and AMAZING flavor.
This place is inexpensive AND delicious and the employees are all SO friendly! My daughter got the rainbow shaved ice and I got the mango lassi. For $3, the kid size lassi was the best dessert - and its still a BIG portion. Thank you for making this heat bearable! We will be back!
Nice little truck next the bowling alley. The fl as vors are intense and the ice is soft. It is as good summer hangout place
I went to the town lake location (thanks to the owner promptly responding to my email regarding when he would open a more central/north location) with my 4 year old and it was a great experience! My little one was able to get one of the fresh juice flavors without dye (watermelon with cream) and I tried the POG with sour grape! We will be back. Do it!
Cute snow cone truck. They have a lot of specialty flavors you wonβt find anywhere else. Iβm a fan of the creamy cold brew and arroz con leche. Staff is friendly and can help you choosing a flavor. Watch out for ants.
Flavors are out of this world delicious and delightful! We had Ice Island for our neighborhood National Night Out and the shaved ice cones were a huge hit! Ice Island cones clearly stand out above all others! Rahul was wonderful to work with as well! You must try Ice Island! You will not be disappointed!
I came by a while ago and had a delicious Mexican Rice Pudding. The owners emails are hilariously entertaining, it is one email list that you will not regret signing up for. I also saw a funny YouTube video they made recently (what reminded me to write this actually) that was also funny. So not only are their flavors delicious, but itβs fun being part of their community. I canβt wait to go try another flavor!
Great flavors, sweet or spunky! Always a great attitude coming from inside the trailer, and theres communal shady benches available if you want to stick around to enjoy. Ask for to-go and theyll put it in a larger cup for you (except larges) and I highly recommend their new Dark Matter flavor, its like an icy York Patty!
Pretty awesome place! Plenty of choices regular and specialties especially mexican rice pudding!(my favorite). Also variet of toppings to go on them Cup sizes are pretty big even for kids size! Service is fast and plenty of parking around it. Recommend it!
Best shaved ice Iβve had. Hands down. Extra perk is how amazing the staff always is.
Wonderful selection of flavors. Cool that they offer a to-go option. Lots of ice for your buck. My eyes were way bigger than my stomach. My only complaint was the sheer amount of bees around the place, as well as all the sticky residue on the tables outside.
Hands down, the best snow cones in the entire world. Not an exaggeration.
The snow cones are very good and the people that work there are nice and respectful. π
Coffee my favourite
Love it!! My favorite is cucumber π₯ lime!!!
Great service, best snow cones ever. Truly a βkeep Austin weirdβ business ^_^
I started going when it was only the owner and only his helper. And now it has grown and blossomed into something even greater than it was. Never disappointed. And his prices have never gone up even though he has a larger trailer. Awesome
We love this place..if its not right.they fix it.and with a friendly π
Best snow cones on the planet.Awesome customer service and cool music.
Always friendly and quick service. Lots of flavor options, including sugar-free flavors.
Always a treat to get a snow cone here thank you for the flavors you bring!
I recommend trying Cucumber lime it was very refreshing as well as Summer lemonade. In the gourmet flavors I enjoyed purple magic and the Mexican rice pudding. The best part was Shaved ice island gives you the best bang for your buck.
Thee B - E - S - T snocone place in Austin! Periodt. ππ»Tigers Blood with Diced Pickles is my fave and takes me back to my childhood at my great grandmas house. She would give all her grandkids money to walk to the corner store and buy a nice cold pickle! Then give us a watermelon jolly rancher to stuff in the pickle lolI love this place! Please put a North Location soon. Though, my family and I drive the 30min south. And Ill still recommend you to cater HEBs picnics π
Super, double pour of strawberry flavoring...every single bite was deep, red, strawberry explosion. I will be going back for round 2 later today.... perfect snow cone experience!
Yum yum! Great place to get a yummy treat for this crazy heat.
