Sweet Choice

It was a bit hard to find. Gotta enter where it says Marshall's and it's a tiny booth inside that is on your way to the inside entrance of Marshall's. The girl working was really nice and had the order ready fairly quickly. It tastes delicious :) no ice chunks in the snow cone & the additional $1 for condensed milk was worth it! Plenty of flavor and almost Hawaiian style melt in the mouth shaved ice. would come here again!

Location is interesting, no signage outside. It is in the walkway to Marshall's. There's other little shops right outside Marshall's (jewelry store, threading).We got the 5 piece taiyaki for $7.95. Be aware that you have to buy 2 or 5 pieces, not 3 not 4.The custard filling was overpowering with imitation vanilla so I recommend getting nutella. It's not the best taiyaki I've had but it will fulfill that craving.

Went yesterday afternoon. So glad other folks had explained the location because it isn't obvious.Got there about 4:30 and saw an open sign with no employee inside the kiosk. Stood there for a moment confused.Noticed a be right back sign just as a super friendly young woman came over and asked if we'd like to order. She left her break to serve us. The flavors were limited to dole whip and vanilla - which is what we were hoping to order anyway - and when she rang us up it was $10.50 for three upside downs. I told her that can't be correct - they are $5.95 each - she pointed to a nearby sign and told us about the promotion.What a treat!The non dairy ice cream was delicious and refreshing in a hot day and the waffle fish was crispy on the outside and chewy on the inside.Can't wait to return!

When is this spot ever open? I'm not sure how anyone is able to have any ice cream pictures because everytime I come it's closed. It's super hard to find parking too. Ugh!

*Take special note on the business hours (Mon-Wed closed.....the many times when I had early-weekday urges to try this place but finding out that it's closed for the day.....)TL;DR:- Perfected taiyaki batter (light crispy exterior w/ satisfyingly chewy, almost mochi-like, interior)- Dole whip pretty much comparable to the one at Disneyland- Docked a star for the painfully-basic soft-serve ice cream flavor options overall (at the time that I visited, the matcha option was swapped with chocolate)----------I got the ahboong (fish-shaped waffle cone on top of soft-serve ice cream). Vanilla/dole whip swirl was my soft-serve ice cream choice and I had custard as the waffle filling (I actually don't really recommend this waffle/soft-serve flavor combo.....I already knew this ahead of time but I wanted to try the custard and the dole whip in one visit.....more about this in a bit).The taiyaki (the fish waffle) batter is pretty much perfected here. Light crispy exterior with a thick yet satisfyingly chewy, almost mochi-like, interior (ultimate ASMR experience). I really liked it a lot.....I might even consider the one here being better than the one at that *other* place that specializes in ahboong and also has a two-word-repeat business name. As for the custard, it's basic but gets the job done.Yes, I've had the dole whip at Disneyland, and, yes, the dole whip here is pretty comparable to the one at that theme park. I'm not the biggest fan of dole whip (it's a bit too tart for me.....if you're not in the know, dole whip is essentially soft-serve ice cream made with pineapple juice). I had the dole whip/vanilla swirl and I can't imagine how extra tart the full-blown dole whip here is. The dole whip's tartness doesn't go well with the taiyaki (ordering just soft-serve ice cream is an option here, but for ahboong-first-timers, I suggest pairing the fish with a soft-serve ice cream flavor that is more on the creamy-tasting side). Nonetheless, if you're missing on Disneyland's dole whip, your craving will be satisfied here.Overall pretty good ahboong. Stellar taiyaki. I docked a star because of the painfully-basic soft-serve ice cream flavor library (the matcha flavor option was swapped with chocolate at the time that I visited). Though, I suppose the basic variety of flavors is understood as the business stand is located right in front of the Marshalls entrance (I saw passerby confused with the whole ahboong concept).

I saw on their Instagram Thursday that they were doing a buy one get one free, so I thought that was the perfect time to give Chibi Chibi a try! I had the pineapple and vanilla swirl with fruity pebbles and custard filled taiyaki. My mom had the chocolate and coffee swirl with graham cracker crumbs and custard filled taiyaki. They added Pocky! One taiyaki is usually $5.95. You can also get soft serve in a cup or filled taiyaki without soft serve. Okay, now I'm a big fan of Somi Somi, but Chibi Chibi was surprisingly pretty comparable! The soft serve flavors were tasty, though not as creamy in texture. Their taiyaki was crispy outside and chewy - perfect! Their topping choices were more limited than Somi, but they still hit the spot. The portion was slightly smaller, however. Overall, tasty and convenient location for me! I'd return and recommend if you're in the area.

Very comparable to SomiSomi. I enjoyed the coffee soft serve, had a nice strong flavor. I thought the soft serve flavor was better than the competition, but the texture wasn't as smooth. I also liked that the Oreo wasn't too crushed, so I could actually taste it. The fish cone was about the same. Located inside the little entrance area to Marshall's. Their hours aren't great, wish they were open a little later.

This place is located inside the Marshall's shopping center. There's plenty of parking outside, in the shopping plaza. Once you walk in, you'll see this place on the left. They are open certain days, from 1pm-8pm. Staff was kind, and service was pretty fast, especially since it wasn't busy when we got there.There are not a whole lot of options like Somi-Somi but definitely fun flavors, which reminds me of Hawaii.I ordered an ahh-bong (upside down) with dole whip, oreo topping, and custard filling for my taiyaki. It was delicious, but definitely too much dole whip for one person lol.Because we love taiyakis, I also ordered 5 taiyakis, with custard, cheese, and pepperoni filling. Soooo good!! Will definitely come back here to get taiyakis!

DOLE WHIP + taiyaki was very good. Hard to find but go in Marshall like others said and to the left. Lady was very nice and accommodating and got us extra napkins.

Yum. I liked coming here before just for the dole whip but luckily now there's a place close to me to get taiyaki. The menu is simple but it works. While their soft serve is good, I seriously loved the ah boong. Their batter and technique is great. You get a nice golden exterior and an interior with just enough chew. Put together, you have the perfect treat for summer or any time you want ice cream. It's unfortunate they're open limited days because inevitably the kids or myself want one but have to wait until later in the week when they open (Thurs-Sun).Looking forward to trying out the savory ah boong offerings!
