Raspados GDL

Seriously one of the cutest places I’ve been in. Establishment was very clean and modern. They have a variety to choose from and staff is very helpful. Well priced too. We tried the chamangos and guava raspados. They were made to perfection. Wish we had a place like this back home!

I’m a regular at the restaurant next door, El Taco Llama and I came across this place one day and today I decided to come back since I was really craving Esquite. First of all, as I walked up to the register, the cashier had no sense of customer service, not a «hi welcome what can I get for you» I was more enthusiastic than him, up until I finished ordering, nothing. I ordered the Esquite and decided to get it to go and let me tell you, it was the most BLAND cup of Esquite I’ve ever had. The corn felt like they were weeks old and the texture was so stale. There was more of the corns juice than there was of anything. Not enough of the cheese or the hot powder. Seriously, so very disappointing. Id rather travel to Lincoln Heights for the elote man than save gas by coming here. I give it a two stars since I didn’t get to try their raspados. Maybe they should just stick or raspados and just cut all the other things on the menu.

Ive had 2 experiences at this place
FIRST EXPERIENCE–
I look at the hours on Unilocal before i head over
I get out of work at 8 so i rushed there after work to try to get some tostilocos since i had been craving them for a while
I get there 8:15 the place is closed already
Im like wtf? Then i see someone in there talking on the phone, me thinking shes going to open up to service me since the business should still be open she just stares at me and does nothing from that point i said i would never go back
SECOND EXPERIENCE–
Was headed home from target one day when my wife said she really wanted some tostilocos she told me to give them another shot since we were practically there i said fine lets go
Walk in theres about 2 couple waiting on their order, we order right away some tostilocos figured it would take 10 mins tops to get our stuff head over to 7 – 11 to grab something to drink took my time come back waited another 15 mins waiting just to be disappointed
The size of the tostilocos was super small specially for the price we paid, it had little to no chile in them they were plain chips with a bit of fruit in them super disappointed probably wont be going back

Maggie at Lakeshore was awesome. She was so helpful. First off I love this store and I’m not a teacher. But I laminate, Maggie came over and gave me a quick tutorial, and they have two machines and they charge $ 0.39 a foot for members (membership is free) and $ 0.49 for non-​members. This store is so well organized and browsing is fun.

5 stars for the raspado and bionico! My only issue is that last time I drove there at 10pm because the hours on Unilocal said they were open. I drove up and there was no bionico in sight. My husband always orders a diablito or chamango, both of which are tasty. I always get a nuez raspado! oh geez parking sucks. You might as well park at Kohls.

This place is awesome. got the vanilla raspado with lachera. I couldn’t stop saying how delicious it was every time I took a sip. Definitely coming back to try there mango

I first time visit this place and order an Chamango and vanilla Raspado. We took our orders to go and realize that there was an employee hair in one of the raspados Disgusting! And to top it off, the Raspado taste artificial not like ones in the streets lol We would not come back!!!

Today was my first time trying this place and I absolutely loved it! The chamango was really good, the mangos were fresh and sweet. I’m glad I tried this place because I finally found a raspado place closer to my house and I really recommend this place (:

Came here tonight because I had been craving a good Chamango. Almost went to another place but luckily they were closed and I was led here. Best Chamango I’ve had in a long time. Very fresh, not artificial tasting. Worth the wait. Parking does suck but I don’t care, I’ll just park further and walk :) … They have a big menu and I can’t wait to go back and try more!

I had a Bionico today it was good. The place it clean and the product are really fresh. The only thing is that it takes for ever to get your order even if you are the only person in there.

This place is delicious! Prices are cheaper and the containers are bigger and the chamangos taste way better than the place we use to go to! I’m definitely coming back! Parking sucks tho. :/

The fresh juice here is great. The people working here are super friendly. The only negative is parking — absolutely sucks but the juice make up for it.

First time trying this. It was a little too sour and spicy. Denise saw my reaction and instantly offered to fix it. She gave me complimentary shaved ice with less sour stuff and more fruit! It was delicious!

Friendly service, great menu, clean and delicious!!! We stumbled upon it by accident ordered a mango raspado and a chamango to our surprise they use fresh ingredients and they make their own fruit syrups from fresh fruit. We will be going back frequently from now on.

I was driving by and saw this place. Parking was not great so I parked on Parthenia Ave. I got the Pico De Gallo Fruit Salad ($ 5.25) and it was good. It has mangos, pineapples, cucumber, jicama and watermelon and topped with chile, lime and salt. The menu also listed cantaloupe, kiwi and coconut but I didn’t get that on mine so it might just be a seasonal thing. The employees are very nice but next time I want to try their Raspados.

I’m so glad I finally decided to stop by. The parking sucks but it’s worth the trouble. Thank me later

I came here with my boyfriend and we got the bionico and the rice pudding. Both were really good and not too sweet. The bionico had a good variety of fruit: strawberries, pears, peaches, bananas, apples, grapes, cantaloupes and raisins. It cost $ 5.50, which I believe is decent.
They also sell elote in a cup. We didn’t try it because we felt it was a bit over priced. The elote cost $ 3.50. I live in Lincoln Heights in Los Angeles and I can get elote in a bigger bowl for $ 1.50.
Overall, the place was good. There’s a large variety of things to order and the place is clean. I would definitely come back.

The Green Smoothie is right on point, fresh, taste good and is really really healthy.
Then I get a Tasty Crepes once a week with fresh strawberries, bananas and Nutella.
The Best Variety of good snacks in the area
I Love This Place!!!

Came here looking for some really good RASPADOS! Since, the place I normally go to is off my list and no longer my favorite place.
I believe they just opened 2 weeks ago. I’m not sure if their own by the taco llama owners. It seems like it. The RASPADOS were good don’t get me wrong, but they need to use better ice, I felt like the ice wasn’t melting and/​or the ingredients they use for their raspados is to thick for their ice. You can see it to from the outside of the cup. Maybe they should consider using more watery ingredients.
The service was good and exceptional. The parking was an issue. Not too many spots and there to small and compact.
Next time I will consider their food options. I know they have crepes, fruit salads and desserts.

My raspado was perfect. It wasn’t overly sweet and the price was fair. All they need to do is work on being a bit more welcoming.
