The chamango is seriously the best I have ever had! It's super fresh and sweet and tangy all at the same time! The spice of the Chamoy and Tajin take it up from a regular mango smoothie to the masterpiece that it is! Friendly staff and plenty of parking in the plaza as well!!!

Best Chamango in LA, great home made ice cream too with low prices and friendly service to boot. Whether on a hot day or cool day, there's something at Garcia's for you. I am hooked on the Chamango flavor profile so that is my go too. The large Chamango here is only $7.50 plus tax and that has 5 scoops of sherbet in it with a tamarind stick (which I decline). I prefer the mango and pineapple sherbets but there are many to choose from They will let you sample ice creams and gave generous size samples. I don't like cherry flavored desserts (because it reminds me of cough syrup) but was given a sample of the black cherry ice cream today and it was really good. Like , I may buy it next time good. The coffee ice cream was also very good. Paying cash is preferred.

Food : 6/5!!! Love this place! They use real fruit and no fructose just sugar. I would give six stars if I could. One of my favorite places to get dessert and cheap. It's one dollar scoop and it's perfect for a hot day. You pay first and then you tell the gentleman what you want. They use real sugar and it's incredibly affordable. My favorite flavors are actually the piña colada, guava, watermelon, and mango. It's incredibly soft and easy to eat. It's not overly sweet which is why we love it here. For $1 a scoop now a days is such a steal!!!Service 4/5: lady will take your order and is very nice. It's a pretty quick service where they ask you what you want and then you pay. Never had a bad experience.Ambience: 4/5 since it's an ice cream shop I did not expect anything to be big or grand. Can fit about 6 to 8 people before you have to line outside of the door. There's no seats inside so you have to eat at two tables outside or in your car. Wish there was tables for you to enjoy. Nothing special just a quick ice cream shop to come and go. My all-time combination is a piña colada with guava. The guava has seeds in there and you can tell it's made by real fruit.

The food was okay. The service was good. The ambiance was okay. I would give this place 3/5 stars overall. I would give this place 4/5 stars locally.

Do they sell Mug Root Beer?

No, but I’m still giving it 5 stars because this place was my CHILDHOOD.

Satisfied my cravings! came here after work and I was so excited to try this place out. I've only heard food things about this place- I got their medium chamango for myself and finished it all in one sitting! The service was good. She recommended what we're popular and things she liked. Very helpful

Visitation Rights: Been here a handful of times.Credit Cards: They're accepted, but they tack on a surcharge fee. Use cash to bypass the fee.Restroom: No restroom availableWait Time: Lines can be long, but eventually you'll be able to get your mexican ice cream/sorbet/drink cravings satisfied.Location/Parking: Located inside a plaza between Adelia Ave. and Potrero Ave.. Plenty of parking in the shared lot.Ambiance/Decor: Alright ambiance. Most of the patrons mostly get it to go. There are couple of tables outside for you to sit and enjoy.Service: Service is pretty good. Staffers are friendly, offer great suggestions, and doesn't take long to get your purchase.Garcias Fruit Of Choice: I mostly get their:1) Pina aguas frescas with no ice ($5 for a large) to maximize on liquid consumption. Very fresh, refreshing, and made to order. 2) Chamango is quite satisfying to consume. I usually order with less chamoy sauce, because I don't really like the spicy taste much.3) Strawberry and Mango Shorbet: Once in a while, I do like to treat myself to a strawberry and mango shorbet ($4 cup). It is quite solid. 4) Elote in a cup: It's alright, but the corn they use is a bit hard. I do like the concept of having the corn kernals cut from the cobb, because it eliminates the mess and not having the corn get stuck between your teeth when you bite into it is a WIN for me.Garcias Fruit For Thought: Definitely don't mind patronizing this shop.

Garcia's fruits is my all time favorite shop for Mexican ice cream, snacks, and slushes. [Food 5/5]: Im obsessed with the chamango here. There are a ton of flavors you can mix and match with. I love how they are cleaner than most other places I've been to. They put mango bits on the bottom and on top. They always also put the right amount of spicy sauce in. The chips here is also super good! This is probably the only store that I know that sells Mexican snacks that you normally find from people who sell rolling their carts at the park.[Service 5/5]: There may be long lines, but the service is pretty quick after paying. All the staff have always been super friendly, which I appreciate since it does get a bit busy and hectic. They charge a $0.50 if you use card, so try to bring cash if you can. There's plenty of public parking in the plaza. Their ice cream is extremely refreshing and delicious on a hot day. I will definitely be back!
