Most delicious snow I’ve ever had. Their size is great and flavor amazing. Definitely looking forward to go back to this place.

The location in Natomas is closer to me but this location had orange snow. I get it with pineapple and its a cold tropical treat. The wait was long, they are short staffed but their dining room is comfortable and the treat was worth the wait. I love this place.

If you have been to a VP you know they offer delicious treats. They primarily serve a special kind of shaved ice that most closely resembles snow that melts in your mouth. Outside of taking a long time to prepare your order this location is overall 👌

Unsanitary and poor customer service i never leave bad reviews but this place deserves one they must make most there money on take out orders.

The boba drink has a lot of powder and has no flavor. We order a boba brown tea but the woman gave us Thai tea instead also when we also bought taro which has too much water.

Customer friendly service, replayed my order back to me, and made sure my order was perfect. Outstanding place I’ve already recommended to my friends!

This is my new favorite place!!! Clean, quiet and great service .

The shaved ice was pretty good but the price is a bit high compared to the quality of the dessert.

Awesome awesome awesome. It took us forever to eat it and it never melted! The manager explained they chill the product to -45 degrees!Its somewhere between Ive cream and snow cone, but such a unique cold treat. We ordered too much, we could have shared a large easily but we wanted to try to flavors.

This is must when Im here in Sacramento! Strawberry cheesecake! Yummy!

Faluda is awesum.. Love to see Halal desert in Sac.

Amazing!

One of the only ice creams i can eat. Shaved ice... Delicioso

The food actually lives up to the pictures which is rare among places

Don’t leave bad reviews but, Asked for reduced sugar milk tea, but was literally syrup. Super long wait & bad service.

Great smoothies and ice treats.

There really is no perfect way to describe this place, other than its heaven in your mouth. From what I gather, they flavor the liquid, hard freeze it, finely shave it, and place it in molds. Then top it with amazing drizzles and extras like chocolate syrup, graham cracker crumbs, fruit, or nuts. You can even make your own. I highly recommend Vampire Penguin to everyone I know!

The ingredients dont taste the best here. I dont know if its because a mix of the smell here which smells like a lot of body lotion. We asked for a replacement of one of the desserts and the guy said they couldnt do that. Theres a bunch of other foods here as well which is cool but Im not coming back.

Shaved snow is one of my favorite foods and VP does not disappoint! They have a wide variety of options and topping and you can customize it however you like! They have refreshing fruit flavors like strawberry and mango and sweeter ones like chocolate and red velvet. I like how you can get multiple ice flavors in one order.This place is starting to get popular so try to go at an off time to avoid a long line.

I used to love coming here for quite some time whenever I was craving something sweet. But after what seemed like a change in management or staff it has never been the same. They seem to be skimping in the quality of the desserts which results in bland shaved snow. I believe the portions have also gotten way smaller while the prices have increased.

If youre on a diet, go to this ice cream place because its like Diet ice cream. All of the ice creams are like snow ices or whatever and they are flavored all nice and such. I had the Banana Split which is like chocolate flavored snow, strawberry flavored snow, and vanilla flavored snow, with bananas all around and syrup and all sorts of creams. After I drizzled the syrup and creams in my mouth I got a brain freeze from the delightful snow ice and it felt like I was on a diet afterwards so pretty cool place to go to, if youre in the area pop on in.

Vampire Penguin is my happy place! But, this location is the best of the best. I was so glad to see they reopened. You must try the dragon balls!

Very impressed. Snow cone (what a friend told me) totally undersold this place. This is on the Dip-n-dots scale of something much better than ice cream. Must try at least once. There is also one Downtown Sac.

Not sure what all the hype is about. It is shaved ice, with flavoring, but the flavor seems to sink right to the bottom. Tastes like eating ice flakes. The decor and ambiance is nice enough, and the staff are friendly, but I go out to eat for the food, and the food just disappoints here.

I got a fadoola, delicious

They are truly amazing. I have not had one thing from the menu that I have not enjoyed. I am really glad to see they are opening additional locations. Give them a try, you will be glad that you did.

What place does not offer water? Although we gave them a good tip their reply was sorry we do not offer cups of water... then what is the service charge for? The one star is not about food is about service, terrible....not going there again.

Wonderful service! The staff there are so welcoming, friendly, and professional and I really appreciate that. Adding to that their menu has so much variety its hard to choose!

Love the artworks on the wall. Appreciate what other artists appreciate art. Watch cousins treated themselves and their love for what this place offers.

This was my first time coming here and I loved it. I highly recommend this place. The presentation was fantastic, the taste wasnt over powering and the staff was helpfull

Absolutely incredible, this is my first trip to Sacramento and this place has made my trip go from a 2.6 to a full 10 marks in my book

The set up has changed. There are new owners and the crowd that is usually there was gone. The shaved ice was tasty but did not wow me.

Vampire Penguin is the best shaved snow place in Norcal. The Mexican Candy one is my personal favorite although my kids like the taro one better. Great flavors and friendly staff here.

Loved it! Great for the price and loved the novelty of shaved ice tasting just like ice cream with the options of fresh fruit or flavored drizzle for toppings.

This location is where I first fell in love with V.P but since onwership change the service is now slow. This location was once decorated in beautiful art work and such a clean environment. But now there are just posters of the shaved ice upon the walls. I would not go back to this V.P location. I suggest the the Vampire Penguin in Elk Grove.

They were out of nitrogen and werent even sure when they would have more. Man was not helpful with flavors either.

Great place to get something nice and cold when you dont really want ice cream or icee. Their ice cream I like to describe as its between ice cream and icee. Its nice and icy but at the same time its has ice cream flavor

Taste good for kids.. Too fluffy for me.

It was the most unique dessert Ive ever tasted. Please come to Chicago or Indiana. I dont think I can wait until I return to Sacramento to have it again!

Vampire Penguin is amazing it have lots of good variety of desert to try out and its also like a different type of Ice Cream textare in the world that normal store would not curry well any ways there both amazing desert

The shaved ice was pretty bland and the fruits were dried. I was really disappointed since lots of people raved about Vampire Penguin.

I ordered the Mexican candy shaved snow and it was very delicious!! Will return!!!

Good service, nice place & good shaved ice. Yummm

Creative spin on shaved ice, long wait, but worth it. Large portions and amazing flavors, a great place to kick back with friends.

Taste good but the value is horrible..... 7 dollars for about the same amount of ice cream youd fit in 2 to 3 shot glasses just fluffed up. I get that its new and kinda cool, but the value is definitely not there for me. I easily could have eaten 30 dollars of thier stuff. Cold stone is a steal when u compare substance. Maybe it was the portion they gave me cuz the shaved ice part barely reached the top of the cup and the rest was whipped cream. This is like getting 5 cheeto puffs, all volume and no value, plus u pay a dolllar a cheeto....... a decent cheeto but just not enough..... not in south sac....

Friendly staff good service, clean area, lots of flavour ice cream and indian ice cream faludah is so good.dragon breath puffs is good and fun.

New owners. Very nice people. Good atmosphere.

Its good dessert

Wonderfull delicious snow shaved amazing texture love to be back here will recommend everyone 👍👍👍👍👍

It is very small and run down. Ive been to the one in elk grove and it is nicer and bigger

Today eat maxican candy and vampy smoothy coconutsLove the taste. Big nice and clean atmoshphere .highly recommended.

Unique ice. So yummy & refreshing.

Very good, will come back. A larger menu board is needed up towards the front so everyone can look at it and decide before they line up and squint at the board available, also supplying napkins would be nice.

Great shaved ice with amazing flavors at a decent price! I only wish they would have more t shirts...

Great Service under new management, superb quality and exellent Service with great price .I specially liked desi desaert Called Falooda, must try.Must recomended

Love it!!! Such a unique idea. A blend of ice and ice cream, truly refreshing!!

Awesome never tasted anything like it Way Better than Ice Cream

One of the most interesting deserts i have had in a very long time.

I dont know how they do it but its yummy.

I come here every time I visit town. The most amazing ice cream I have ever had!

Cool off the only civilize idolize way with Vampire Penguin Ice Cream

Not alot of variety yet shaved ice is amazing!

Snow ice is so good here and it is at a reasonable price

I like the green tea and red beans.

Vampire penquin is good asf .

The shaved ice was good as I love the taro flavor but waiting over an hour was a bit ridiculous.

The shaved ice was very very good and unique, however, I used a groupon there and was not told I had to use the entire amount of the groupon. I ordered something for $5 and used a groupon worth $10. They took the entire groupon and would not refund me the extra $5 even in a gift card. They were very rude about it. Im very disapointed as I would love to go there again, but from the way I was treated I wont be going back there again. Too bad!

I love Vampire Penguin! My sister used to work there so we wouod go there all the time. If its really hot outside or if your craving something cold and soft then Vampire Penguin is the place to go! They have so many options and theyre flavors are so good!!! Although it can get crowded, if I had alot of money I would go there every time i have nothing to do because if you want some entertainment you could look at the art they have and sometimes you could even buy the art!! They also have all sorts of Bord Games like Apples to Apples and Moncola! Vampire Penguin is deffinetley the perfect place to get Flavored SNOW!P.S. Theyre snow is actually snow❄⛄

They are so good! Amazing shaved ice!

So amazing! beautifully decorated too!

So good! I love the strawberry cheesecake

Place says its open at 11 on Sunday but no one has bothered to open the doors today at 11:12, not impressed!

By far the best shaved ice!

One of my favorite places in Sac!

There was some BO in the store and I dont like to smell BO when eating desserts.

Sweet! ☺👍🏼👌🏻

Fun name. Delicious treats.

The boba was alright and the nitrogen puffs made my teeth hurt

So good! And crazy different. Check it out.
