Good place overall but please be mindful of the portion size that you are getting. I learned this the hard way when I ordered a medium and it was rather big. Also it is really sweet but in a good way.

Best shaved ice in the area. I’ve visited a couple locations within a 5 – 10 mile radius of this place yet I this the only spot I keep coming back too. The ice is unbelievably soft, and just melts as it hits your tongue. Another plus, is they accept debit cards as well as cash. So you’re in luck if you don’t have any cash on you. Prices are fair and range from Extra small 1.50 — to king size 5.00!

They have extreme low prices (they even upsized our orders for no extra cost!) and they don’t skimp on the syrup. You have many different flavor options and can mix any that you want too. We went during a pretty busy time (Sunday afternoon) but didn’t have to wait long.
The staff was also very friendly. We will be back for sure.

Currently located near 34th and Ella, this brightly colored trailer beckons me as I drive by. «Tiger Blood» I seem to hear it whisper…
They have a large selection of flavors to choose from (including my favorite, Tiger Blood) and you can make combinations, too. I’d say the number of options is about the same as at Mam’s, but the quality isn’t quite as good. Snoball King is substantially better than the next nearest option (Nene’s) Their ice has a pleasant texture, service is relatively quick, and the lines usually aren’t very long, even on a Friday afternoon.
I do wish they had somewhere to sit and that I had a better idea of when they were going to be open. But due to the low prices and convenient location, I have to review this place positively.

So slow. It’s like the manually crush the ice. It’s good though and I am glad I came because it is so hot outside!
Prices are cheap too!
Small $ 2, medium $ 4, large $ 6, and king $ 8. I order 2 smalls and got 2 mediums. Sweet deal. Thanks guys!

I am honestly obsessed with this place! I’m so upset that it took so long for me to try it out. I have only had the Strawberry Shortcake, Tiger’s Blood and Wedding Cake but, I can promise those are the best! Especially when you get cream layered in between. These guys just changed the days their open to Wednesday — Sunday and will probably be closing for the season in October. Make sure you grab one ASAP!!! Yum!

The taste was good but mine had too much syrup. It got too sweet towards the end and some of the ice clumped together but at least it was that snow like ice and not the crushed ice.

The best tasting snowballs in Oak Forest and surrounding neighborhoods! Reasonably priced too!

This place is amazing! Huge portions for little $$$!!! The staff is so very friendly, they are always trying to accomodate and please your group… even at it’s busiest times we have only ever had to wait a few minutes max for our orders and that was only bc we couldn’t narrow our decisions to a couple flavors… and if you ask nicely they will give you a sample (if you are like us and on the fence)! Who does that anymore???
Our normal selections are:
Red Velvet Cake/​Blue Coconut
Dragon’s Blood
Birthday Cake/​Red Cotton Candy
They are open until 8pm and accept plastic!
Seriously, you need to try them out if you haven’t already!
