The Paleta Bar - Shanghai Plaza

As a lactose intolerant individual, I appreciate any dessert establishment that can accommodate my kind and this place does just that!Service was fast and easy although it was crowded and the paletas were yummy!

This is the best horchata paleta I've ever tasted. What's more, the service is SUPERB. They encouraged me to try as many flavors as I wanted (limited it to 3) and even gave me a tiny watermelon agua Fresca sample as I was making my payment. So kind.There is a little bar with stools for you to sit and enjoy your purchase with AC on full blast. You can get really fancy by getting toppings with your paleta, smoothies, and even fruit cups, but can't go wrong with the basic paleta. Sometimes simple is best!

Dessert in Chinatown, Las Vegas, Nevada...I'm quite sure that we don't have paletas in Hawaii. I learned about these frozen fruit treats from my Yelp friends in Los Angeles! Paletas are like Popsicles, but are made with fresh fruits!When I saw The Paleta Bar at Shanghai Plaza, my friends and I went in! The shop is clean, air-conditioned, and has good lighting. There are some bar stools for dining-in and a convenient restroom!Service was very welcoming and friendly! The owner (?) offered us samples of the taro paleta right away... it was creamy and not too sweet! It almost tasted like kulolo without the smokey flavor!My friends got the mango and durian paletas. I got a non-dairy watermelon one! It's very refreshing and kind of healthy... LOL!We highly recommendThe Paleta Bar - Shanghai Plaza! It's ranked #11 in the USA by Yelp!

Lots going in in this strip mall but gotta try the ice cream bars here. They also have drinks that look very refreshing. There are too many choices so I had to keep my order to a minimum.

The milk chocolate drizzle over the strawberries was delicious though!The team members were super helpful! Since this was our first time at the Paleta bar, the team members walked us through the process of how to create our Paleta bar! They even offered flavor recommendations!I think next time I stop inside the Paleta bar, I'll have to try out their proleta, which is their protein style signature paleta!!

My absolute favorite paleta bar downtown! Always friendly, always busy, but they are quick with great service every single time!

Desert Time at The Paleta Bar at Shanghai Plaza. First time here, why did I wait this long?! I really like the concept of The Paleta Bar. Bright, clean and friendly service. I love how neatly organized the bars were arranged from sweet to fruity flavors and the samples already prepared cut into little squares for guests. The dipping station to the variety of toppings were excellent choices and again each station areas were kept tidy and clean. That's a big plus for me. Simple concept choose your Paleta, choose your dip, choose your toppings, end with fruit toppings, pay and WahhLaaa enjoy your yummay treat! By the way, there are other things on the menu like Mangonada, Shake, Mixed Fruit Cups and Aguas Frescas. Don't forget they have Merch available too. On the menu:New flavor - Pecan Paleta ordered the featured item the Pecan Pie "drizzled with milk chocolate, graham crackers and topped with mixed nuts" added strawberries. Shared this yummy treat with my Love. We both agreed that our Pecan Pie was very yummay! The added strawberries was a good combination it balanced the sweetness with a bit of tartness. We will be back again.

The Paleta Bar is the best ice cream shop at Shanghai Plaza. You'll find them next to 85°C Bakery Cafe.Inside has limited seating and good music.They offer an array of paletas and a choice of dip and toppings. Taro is the most popular flavor for paleta. They also make shakes. I ordered a Paleta Shake ($9) with taro and coffee, somehow the cream made it very sweet. The owner is nice and offered to remake the drink. He made the shake with just taro, adding extra ice to make it less sweet, and it taste good!Service from Jonas, owner Tammy and Jay is friendly, accommodating, and pleasant.

Although it's typically cooler in Las Vegas during mid-October, the daily temperature wasn't as fierce as during our late Summer visit. However, the thermometer still registered in the low 90 degrees, and we felt the dry desert heat to be HOT! Since we ate lunch at Yummy Rice in the Shanghai Plaza, I found another of my Yelp bookmarks a few doors away. The hot, sunny Las Vegas had us screaming for frozen treats, so we walked into The Paleta Bar. We've enjoyed eating Mexican ice cream or helados and refreshing mangonadas while visiting relatives in Los Angeles, but we've never tried popsicles or paletas. Our visit to Shanghai Plaza's Paleta Bar was our chance to experience authentic and gourmet paletas. Upon entry into the clean, bright, and subtly decorated shop, the male (owner?) worker behind the display warmly greeted and welcomed us. He offered us samples of taro paletas, but we asked if they contained dairy since my husband is lactose-intolerant. He confirmed the taro paleta did contain dairy, but my husband said his system could handle the small sample. The male worker showed us a vast selection of unique and bold cream-based flavored paletas separate from natural fruit juice or water-based paletas. Meanwhile, I selected the creamy pistachio paleta, and my husband chose the non-dairy, natural fruit, and juice or water-based watermelon flavor.The male worker suggested customizing my pistachio paleta with either dipping or drizzling dark chocolate, milk chocolate, white chocolate, or powdered chili & chamoy on the pistachio paleta and topping it off with either chopped mixed nuts or chopped pistachios (additional charge). It was a no-brainer for me to select the dark chocolate drizzle and chopped pistachios. I watched as the female worker drizzled the dark chocolate and scooped the chopped pistachios over the paleta. Meanwhile, the male worker had already placed the watermelon paleta with the cashier, and we could pay for both treats simultaneously.Both paletas had many natural flavors, and their frozen textures were easy to bite into without crumbling off the stick. The flavors were unique and bold, and each paleta could be customized with drizzles or dipping, chopped nuts or candy or cookie crumble toppings, or fresh fruits. In addition to paletas, they also offer customizable fresh fruit cups and aguas frescas.

The Paleta Bar is my favorite dessert shop in Las Vegas. It's such a refreshing dessert, I could eat it every day, I almost have
