This newly remodeled space feel clean, contemporary and comfortable, all of which combine for really good late night pat bing soo binges. The ratios of all the syrups and ingredients are near idea, leading to a great melange of fruit, mochi and ice cream. Open until 3 a.m. weekdays, 4 a.m. on weekends.

Perhaps the current most popular bing soo place in Ktown, this place is always packed with younger folks looking to congregate over a massive Pyrex bowl of the good stuff. The green tea version is the one to get, with whipped ice cream that melds perfectly with the immense amount of fruit and ice.

This quiet, relaxing environment is a tea house first and foremost, which means excellent Korean-style teas in a traditional space. But the bingsoos, while diminuitive, aren't worth missing. Elegantly topped with a scoop of ice cream, they're good for two people on an after-dinner date.

The former standard bearer, this bingsoo specialist was known for its massive "monster" bowls of Korean shaved ice that could easily feed four hungry college students. Quality can vary based on who's managing the place, but at its best, Ice Kiss is still a good place to try the unique dessert.

Slightly hidden off the main drag, this expansive house of desserts and coffee serves a pretty large bingsoo with a good-size scoop of strawberry ice cream and a sprinkling of fruity pebbles for textural contrast. The bowls are a little on the flat, larger side meaning it's more suited for those not likely to mix the whole concoction together. Skip the coffees though as they're pretty low grade for the price you pay.

This lovely cafe has a multitude of desserts, like smores, smoothies, and cakes, but the bing soo is the most community sweet to get. Studded with everything from kiwi to pineapple chunks and chewy mochi roll pieces, it makes a great post prandial activity.

Nearly a decade old at this point, Cafe Home is a classic spot to get desserts and drinks in Koreatown. There's boba tea, slushies, and even beer. But amid the shaved ice bowls and more, there's even some that bring their Boiling Crab sacks of food from next door, leading to an eclectic mix of guests.

This straightforward bowl of bingsoo is a little diminutive and simple, but it's hard to beat the coffee service and quality for Koreatown. The coffee is roasted in house and brewed in a manner that's much better than the average cafe around town. Throw in the uber Korean decor and ambiance (as in K-pop galore), and you have a nice place to relax for an afternoon snack or post-dinner treat.
