Alfa y Omega

★★★★☆ 4.4 (26) • $

"Update 09/08/2020: during this pandemic I'm so glad to see this establishment open!!!! They make such delicious and sweet treats. It's a local fav and a necessity on these hot summer days and nights. The fruit is fresh and diced and sliced to perfection. Social distancing is a must, along with a face mask and hand sanitizer available as needed. Everything's togo. This place is delicious. Fresh fruits, good ceviche, huge loaded baked potato, ice cream, shakes, flavored waters and much more!!!!! A lady said the shrimp cocktail was the best, have to try that next. Family owned for the past 8 years. They are all super nice. Great prices for the quality of the food and swrvBeat high school lunch rush and miss the 1220-1250 crowd M-F. It's a small grab and go like place but there are 2 tables with 4 chairs. Will definitely be back for Round 3 before this vacation is over!!!!"

Tweedy's Shaved Ice

★★★★★ 4.8 (5) • $

"Tweedy's shaved ice is a seasonal treat that's very much enjoyed during the central valley summer heat. They set up a trailer in the parking lot of the thift store right off the side of highway 145/Madera Ave. There is a wide variety of flavors to choose from and you can add other flavors on the same cone. Prices are reasonable- pretty cheap and not overpriced for good quality snow cones. The only downfall is this is not a permanent location. Tweedy's is usually at this location If the weather is warm to hot (100's). Customer service is fast and friendly. Plenty of parking too.Real People Real Reviews, JC.."

Maxi Raspados

★★★★☆ 3.8 (56) • $

"Excellent shaved ice. This is one of those places you don't want to share with others because it's good and the people who work here clearly care about the quality. They have natural flavors that actually taste like they are not processed. They also have your processed flavors but I can't speak to those because I have not tried them. I highly recommend this place. They are nice and quick."

"Met these guys at the Able Advocates Benefit concert last night. They have some of the best shaved ice in town and a must have at your event! Some of the nicest most caring people I've ever met and the flavors are nothing short of spectacular. Thank you Lolo for your awesome Hawaiian shaved ice and I'll be keeping an eye out for you guys at more events"

Cafe Daldal

★★★★★ 4.9 (25)

"On the outside it is hard to find this place. It shares the same location as the flower shop. They are understaffed for sure. The wait was long but so worth it. I got 4 items to go. The Dalgona Coffee was amazing!!! I wish there was a place closer to me. This spot is a mission from where I live. The to go containers were very well packed. Definitely a spot to try out for sure."

Sno Cafe

★★★★★ 4.8 (100) • $$

"We've followed their truck for years to river park and Enzo's to get some yummy sno cones. My hubby and boys were so excited they got an actual location. We went this past weekend and they did not disappoint. The employees are always really friendly and accommodating. The sno cones are just as delicious or maybe even better. They have traditional flavors and they make some with ice cream and whipped cream on top. Everything I've tried has been so refreshing especially on a hot summer day. This place is a must try if you like sweets."

Sweetie's Candy

"These people are the sweetest people you can ever met! We had them do our boys birthday party and it was a hit! The cotton candy was great, the pretzels were great and the drinks were great! I would recommend them for any party or gathering or if you are ever out and about go find them!"

Raspados Acapulco

★★★★☆ 3.8 (8)

"Well where do I start...I was excited to see a place that served the typical creative mexican raspados...I ordered a diablito ...my husband had the corn in a cup..which was like canned corned mixed with cheese,mayo,butter and powder chili..Nothing like the elotero man:(I had strawberries & cream..was ok not the best...strawberries with lechera ..The downer was the duro with pork rings..it was plain simple & no flavor I think I paid $5 for it..so over priced!!I DO HAVE TO SAY THE PLACE IS VERY CLEAN AND THE GENTLEMAN THAT WORKS THERE IF VERY FRIENDLY & KEEPS STUFF WHERE THEY BELONG..I NOTICED STUFF THAT WENT IN FRIDGE HE PUT AWAY AFTER USE..."

El Raspado Y Sus Amigos

★★★★★ 4.8 (29)

"This place is delicious and for sure it is a hidden gem! The staff here were absolutely awesome and made us feel like we were walking into our grandparents home. Fantastic selection of raspados, delicious selection of food for all times of day; great gifts for family or any special occasion, we loved the ambiance of walking in and hearing music while we were ordering. My oldest loved the selection, we'll be sure to patronize again as we love hole in the wall locations throughout our family outings."

Aloha Express

★★★★☆ 4.4 (355) • $$

"Haven't ate here in a long time. My favorite dish is the loco moco, which is not on the regular menu. Hamburger steak is cooked perfect. Eggs perfect. Just enough gravy. And the macaroni salad is excellent! Inside the restaurant was super clean. Nice, bright colors. Scenes of Hawaii playing on the tv screen. Service was super quick. Workers are friendly and greet you with an "aloha" when you walk in."

Bubble Bee

★★☆☆☆ 2 (25)

"When we visit the Riverpark Farmer's market, we look to see if Bubble Bee is there because we LOVE getting a Korean corndog to eat while we walk around. Customer service is always great and welcoming. They make every transaction quick. You place your order, and then they give you an order number, but make sure you remember it because they don't give you a paper or receipt. Then you wait for your order to be called at the second window. Keep an ear out for your name, it cane be hard to hear sometimes depending on if it's loud! Bubble Bee has a nice and distinguishable food truck display when they set up. They have a large tent that provides shade and a large menu displaying all that they have to offer with prices included. They offer a variety of things ranging from Korean corndogs, boba, wings, and fries. The most popular items on their menu are their Korean corndogs. The corndogs are made to order and come out nice and hot. There is an issue with ordering corndogs, though. I'm not sure if they only do 2 at a time or if they take THAT long, but you could be waiting upwards 15+ minutes for your corndog. Something I've noticed. But regardless of the wait time, they taste really good and are worth it! Their boba teas are also tasty as well and decently sized, although I do feel they are priced a little high, and they're all priced the same. This review is for the Bubble Bee food truck. Their tasty Korean corndogs have us looking out for the food truck and keep us coming back for more."

Raspados El Diablito Loco

★★★★☆ 4.3 (85) • $

"5 stars and above!! Their fresas con crema... TOP TIER lol. Soo good. A lot of places have watery fresas con crema or give old strawberries which make it gross/soggy. This place has nailed the balance of all the ingredients for this dish. Another snack that's soo yummy here is their corn esquite! I always come here when I'm craving one. I've tried many different places for esquite and this one comes out on top. My FAVORITE place for Mexican snack goodies. They are reasonably priced and their portion size is good! A lot of places are overpriced when it comes to Mexican goodies. In addition, the customer service is great!! There is usually the same girl working there and she is always soo sweet :,) They get really busy here and even then she's always so nice. Her customer service is definitely the cherry on top that keeps me coming here. If you come here I recommend to try their corn esquite, fresas con crema or mangoneada depending on what you're craving."

"The go to is their Slushy in flavor Cherry or Tigersblood! Today I decided to try their Vanilla and Strawberry Raspado, boy was I glad I did! The service is amazing the lady at the window is always so kind! Anytime I've asked for her opinion on what to get I have not been let down! Same goes for the gentleman! Gracias a la señora y el señor por siempre ser amables."

Paletalandia

★★★☆☆ 3 (25) • $

"My husband wanted a paleta de fresa(leche), the attendant told us there was only what was in the freezer.Bummed, that is a common and popular flavor. And it's midweek, they shouldn't be out of it. And no "sorry guys", she didn't care.He ended up getting a scoop of strawberry ice cream, it was good.I got my usual Tostilocos, good balance of Chamorro, chile, limon.I asked for only a little bit of "cueritos", she didn't listen because it seemed like that's all the topping it had. It had a few LARGE chunks of cucumber and jicama. Maybe two peanuts... If you love Tostilocos, not your place.If you think we are just too picky, well I think we deserve to be when paying $7 for chips and a scoop of strawberry ice cream."

"The owner is so nice and sweet. All of the mochi is so soft and the filling is tasty. My favorite has to be the green mochi with the kinako ( soybean powder) filled with the red bean. It's chef's kiss o forgot what icecream mochi I got, but you can never go wrong with it."

Tropic Hawaiian Shave Ice

★★★★★ 4.9 (23) • $

"Finding out about this gem - courtesy of Yelp - is a godsend. There are few things as refreshing and flavorful as a good old-fashioned Hawaiian shaved ice to help deal with the oppressive heat in Fresno during the summer months. Hawaiian shaved ice is much better than an ordinary snowcone because it is thinly shaved down to give it a powdery, snow-like texture that absorbs the flavored syrups directly into it, unlike snowcones made with crushed ice. Moreover, wherever you find a Hawaiian shaved ice stand, you almost always find more flavored syrup options, including tropical flavors like mango, guava, and passionfruit. And a cream topping like vanilla or coconut condensed milk is layered on top of the cone. Tropic Hawaiian Shave Ice has additional chocolate and banana cream toppings.It is located inside the Speedy Zapatos Mexican restaurant at the front counter. This place will pile on the shaved ice and liberally drench it with the flavored syrups and cream toppings. There are nearly 30 flavor choices and a large cone is only $7. I like the flavors I picked: banana, bubble gum, and mango. Awesome Hawaiian shaved ice! It definitely hits the spot on a scorching hot day."

Chavita's Cafe

★★★★★ 4.9 (18)

"Might have just found a great, local coffee spot! Adorable cafe with a few indoor and outdoor tables. Atmosphere is refreshing (wall of small plants) with incredibly friendly service. Ordered a chai latte with almond milk and a dirty chai. They have a variety of non-dairy milk options, fresh pastries, breakfast sandwiches, made to order agua frescas, and ice cream! Great stop if you're local or driving on Hwy 99 looking for a great place to stop."

Perfect amount of almond butter, nuts, bananas, blueberries and granola! Fresh & tasty! 1/2 left for another serving to! Great service & Great Power açaí bowl! Highly recommended!"

JoJo's Yogurt

★★★★☆ 4.1 (135) • $

"I love to get shaved snow here. They have good size portions, we ordered some snow to-go and they put it in the yogurt containers. I ordered a Thai tea shaved snow with condensed milk, strawberries, and bananas. My husband ordered the same thing but with chocolate snow. We both enjoyed our dessert, and will continue to stop by here whenever we are in the area."

Antojitos Selene's

★★★★☆ 3.5 (13)

"This little shop is clean, well lit and has lots of menu options! They seem to make most items fresh so there is a wait, but it's all worth waiting for. The staff are nice and there are plenty of seating options in the small shop. Perfect to stay and enjoy or just for while you wait. My husband got a diablito, and then we got raspados for my in laws and a bolis for our daughter. I got the miche-aguas. Aguas frescas dressed like a michelada. It was tasty. My daughter's bolis was fresh (mango) and not artificial- although they do offer some artificial options. Overall, we thought this was a nice place and will definitely come back."

"I am so excited for this place! Coming from out of state, this is TRUE shaved ice! High quality ingredients, huge servings, and great service! This was a perfect stop that will quickly become a routine place for our family. The staff were friendly and went out of their way to make sure everything was perfect. They had plenty of seating and the ambiance was fun. I highly recommend Brain Freeze!"

Fruta Fresca

★★★★★ 4.8 (18) • $

"This place is amazing very clean and fresh inside, came in today Sunday April 23, 2023. My husband got a fruit cocktail, and I got a double scoop one of Limón and the other of Mango. We didn't get a picture of them because they were too good but the service was great very well maintained inside. It looked like it definitely gets busy because when we went people were coming it was around 7pm and already forming a line. But here is the update menu, a picture I did get. I'd definitely recommend this antojitos place, for your cravings!"

Baja Sur MX

★★★☆☆ 2.5 (15)

"This place is a favorite of mine for raspados and diablitos! This time around they were out of some menu items, but we made it work. My go to is the medium coconut raspado. The tamarindo is also delicious. They also sell food (tortas) and snacks, as well as they have a cold case full of all types of canned sodas (including Manzanita Sol and Cactus Cooler), and bottled sodas! Also, plenty of indoor seating to enjoy your delicious snacks and drinks inside."

Pelican’s SnoBalls

★★★★☆ 4 (1)

"New place in Tulare. First time that I tried Pelicans was when I was in Louisiana and it was delicious. So when I heard they were opening one here I was excited. Flavors are good and the texture is like actual snow, which I love! Good thing about this place is...... it has a drive thru!!!! Go try it out!"
