48 Best Ice Cream Shops near Aliso Viejo

“Best one in the area! I see some amount of bad reviews in the past, but I think the place has changed ownership since that and it's a day and night difference! Totally recommend to try out strawberry marshmallow - loved it. Also, they make really good waffle cones - they're not soft like most other places.“

“Nékter in Aliso is faster, cheaper, and much more customer friendly than any of the other Nékters in OC! As I was running in to get a juice, this morning, I accidentally dropped my reusable cup and the rim broke off. The darling sales associate firmly told me that they wanted to replace it, for free (sweetly waving away my protests that it was my fault for dropping my old one). They even gave me the $.50 reusable cup discount on my juice. Thank you, for brightening my day!!“

“Just felt like I needed a little ice cream cone today 😀“

“Outstanding gelato and customer service! The gelato was fresh with all natural ingredients. I had the chocolate cookie mint, which was very flavorful and not too sweet. There were many flavors too…the basics and more original. Highly recommend.“

“Best Ice Cream around, so many great flavors. I can't wait to try them all“

“Goodbye Over Crowded Starbucks! I just found a great remote working/studying spot! Was super quiet here and the free wife helps! Healthy drink options and had my dinner too! They are so welcoming! So kind! Food was great! I’m picky bcs I don’t like salty foods and here was not salty at all. The pork and the beef bowls with the egg just hit that spot for me. Thank you!“

“My wife and I go there about once a week. The ice cream is so good that there can be a line out the door on a cold day. The girls that work there are mostly friendly until it gets close to closing time. However Sunny is friendly at all times and has the greatest smile. South Swell also caters and its a favorite at wedding receptions. I highly recommend!“

“Best ice cream in town! I especially love the coconut cream pie. My family loves the Monkey Business too. Customer service is top notch. Isaac, my server was friendly and helpful. Will be back!“

“I love this gelato shop so much! Me and my friends come here and always have such a great time. Shout out to Jay who is amazing and always there. As the first person to try the strawberry sorbet, I must say it is delectable, especially when paired with the lemon sorbet. I love this place 🩷🩷🩷“

“And great for teenagers, Parents, singles and pups! Ice Snow infused with soft serve. The flavored are endless!!“

“We stopped by Dana Point to visit Salt Creek and to my surprise, there was a Rita’s! We’re from Philadelphia so we were very surprised and happy to find a Rita’s! We ordered a blueberry and watermelon gelati and it was delicious! The custard YUM. The Italian ice— perfect consistency! Thank you for your fine establishment!“

“We 🖤 Handel’s!!! Such a fun experience every time. 👻 👻 👻“

“Ice Cream? Wonderful. Super creamy, and flavors were delicious.

I tried a double scoop of Tiramisu/Oreo. Both were great but Oreo was my favorite.

The young lady serving us was very friendly and very quick.

Overall, a great environment and a great experience.“

“Great selection of flavors, high quality ingredients and so delicious! You won't miss the dairy 😉“

“Phenomenal ice cream with a delicious honey on top. This place doesn't have nearly the attention it should. The price is a little high for the quantity of ice cream, but the quality and flavor more than make up for it. One of my favorite dessert places in a town full great desserts.“

“Freshly made creamy ice cream every day!“

“Excellent dessert spot. I like the takoyaki separate because it comes out hot and delicious. I do succumb and my go-to single order is the upside down takoyaki with the soft serve (it's delicious but the takoyaki fish cools down quickly with the soft serve). The desserts and service are always excellent, and they get your food ready quickly. Excellent location given all the restaurants around it“

“Delicious and you can still get a good old fashioned malt!“

“Fun and unique flavors like tarot, cucumber & elderflower, pineapple & ginger. They also offer dairy free and vegan ice creams as well! So delicious and their staff is super friendly too!“

“Took my Grandson's after an afternoon at thr Skate Park. Small, but plenty of seats.“

“This place is tasty. Very sugary sweet treats, but yummy. We ordered one bar and one soft serve type, but the soft serve is a way better base. The girls working the ice cream shop were young, but attentive. But, they had no AC in the shop which was really brutal with our hot summer. I asked one of the girls about the heat and she said the AC broke. But, you're in Laguna Beach, charging top dollar, have a busy flow of people non-stop and have ice cream and workers that need to be supported with cooler conditions. I hope the owners chopse to address the cooling conditions.“

“Simply the best yogurt I’ve ever tasted and would always enjoy trying all the flavors! Burp!! (Excuse me! 😋🤭“

“Visited Remicone ice cream shop, cute place! I tried the berry special, which was very fresh, not syrupy. The milk ice cream base was smooth and clean while the strawberry glaze added just the right amount of sweetness. The crumble and meringue were perfect toppings. Customer service was great. Definitely will visit again!“

“Been coming here since it opened. Great variety of flavors and since I am an insulin dependent diabetic, I am delighted they always have a "no sugar added" choice! Staff is friendly and helpful. �� Two thumbs up from me!“

“Great Italian Ice cream, good service and fun place for all ages!“

“Good yogurt and toppings, but we were disappointed the girl didn’t want to get the whipped cream, she said “we ran out of whipped cream” yeah right!!!😡“

“The best ice cream in Los Angeles!!!“

“Super fun, themed flavors. The Gelato has a nice pull. No artificial colors or flavors. We drive to Dolce Gelato just to taste what is new.
Would be five stars but the espresso pulled for the afagato was horrible. It ruined my icecream.“

“Friendly staff and very clean store! We got a large strawberry ice cream with brownies and sprinkles to share. We came for the ice cream but walked out with huge smiles because the service is so sweet and delicious! There were plenty of ice cream cakes readily available in the fridge for purchase! Will definitely be back!
Highly recommend..“

“I’m a regular customer here. I love the variety of healthy items and all of the customization possible. Friendly professional Staff!!! I’m a ‘lifer’“

“Cookies galore, if you want a cookie, look no more, this confectioners hole in the wall is one of my girlfriend's favorite sweet tooth cures. Small but worth standing in the line of sweet-heads, who all know: Crumbl is the G.O.A.T. 🍪“

“This was my first time ever trying Crumbl Cookies. Today only 11/6, Crumbl Cookies is offering FREE Chocolate Chip Cookie Thins for each visitor that comes in for one; no purchase necessary.

This was a great way for me to try them out for the first time. When I first walked in, I didn’t expect the place to look so clean!

It was spick and span and there were cookies laid out in front. There were two women working at the time. I didn’t catch the name of the girl I spoke to.

I came in and asked her if they were giving away FREE Cookies today and she said they were. She told me what to press on the machine to order my cookies. She wasn’t very friendly though. I placed my order she handed me my cookies and I told her this was my first visit.

Usually when I tell a business that I’m a first-time customer, they’re more open to explaining what they have, who they are, their process, etc. I don’t get that this time. I also noticed after I grabbed my cookies, she kinda spied on me in odd way as I was leaving.

As far as the cookies, I honestly didn’t expect to receive two! I give them a 3.5/5. They tasted like chocolate chip ginger cookies to me, which was good.

I may visit a Crumbl Cookies again if they have some better flavors I’d like to try and some more warming customer service.“

“Amazing service and quality . The owner was super helpful in getting my customized ice cream cake for my son’s birthday . Everyone loved it . Thank you for making the experience memorable . Highly recommended place for quality , variety of options and great service .“

“The associate was friendly and very good at explaining everything. Regardless of your cookie selection, you cannot make a poor choice, as each flavor is exceptionally delicious and generously sized. We all shared each cookie so that we could sample every flavor.“

“So yummy and the workers are so nice!“

“i really like crumbl!! i would totally give this 5 stars but this specific one though is closest to my house and they have not done any special hometown picks or fun features that other crumbls do through the app. i have been waiting to see some fun hometown picks for the RSM location but sadly i only see Foothill Ranch doing it. Compared to Foothill Ranch, the RSM crumbl customer service is mediocre, as no one seems like they want to be working there however the cookies are great nonetheless i just hope i start seeing more fun stuff in the app for the RSM location!!“

“You guys were absolutely awesome today and I appreciate the safety protocol up in the restaurant due to Covid and the mask policy! I will definitely come back again! Fabulous food and service! ❤“

“Very Good Donuts!! Fresh Made“

“My treat when I do good PT. I love this place! Yum“

“I love this place! They have fresh fruit to add to your yogurt! And I love that I can build my own small cup of goodness!!!“

“Love this yoghurt and I haven’t had it in years because of lack of accessibility. So glad we are visiting here and they have it!!!
Bella did a great job in doing our orders and asking helpful questions to make sure we get what we wanted and how we wanted it to be! Love her work ethics!“

“As the days of our lives, so the Yogurtland churns.“

“These cookies are amazing and best in Orange County. We got an assortment of 4 cookies in a bright pink box that the family loved as a desert treat after dinner. They had chocolate chip and frosting and sprinkles on their cookies.Love this place with great service as well.“

“Delicious ice cream and very clean place!“

“I love this place so good, the ladies here are super helpful, the quality is great and the place is super clean. I’ve been to other locations with and this one is the best by far. I walked in not sure on what to order I explained to the girl what I was craving and she made it just like I wanted it. Sooo good 😊“

“Very good I love this place ���������������������“

“brought my family from Texas here after dinner. everybody loved their snow. the best flavor is mango although everything is goos.“
