“The bolo bao ice cream sandwich was the bomb! I had it with ube ice cream. The garlic fries - lots of fresh garlic with a side of bomb lemon aoili and house sauce! The best! Passionfruit green tea was perfect for the hot weather! So cute inside too! It's a smaller space and a one man show. Everything is made fresh so please be patient - it's worth the wait! Great service! It's a hidden gem to the right of BofA in the plaza. — at CrispyandFluffed.“

their handmade ice cream is amazing in the summer as well,
This place is a Such a gem 🙌🏻 the owners are very sweet and great at their craft“

“Came here with my wife and got yogurt. Tart was not working so the girl kindly got it working for me. I left a $2 tip. The owner comes in at the end of her shift, takes the money from the can . I may have mistaken, but that was dirty imop. Give the tips to the workers..
Edit.. My apologies. Hopefully they have a special blend of yogurt for those so inclined to steal tips from workers. ?“

“Next level! Just a dream place for anyone planning an ice cream party -- they mostly sell ice cream in bulk but also offer select individual ice creams that you normally would buy from ice cream trucks. It's not really a place you want to bring your kids just because parking is limited and there's traffic as ice cream trucks are constantly moving around to load up with goodies -- so be very careful if you decide to bring a kiddo. It has a small and busy parking lot but Polar Ice Cream is gem of a place! Great place to get things to pleasantly surprise your family!“

“This place was cleaner than expected, my friend got a cone yummy and i got a rainbow sherbet the sherbet was more on the sour side but rlly good. We will come back again. My friend thought the cone was exquisite and should be in a museum. Noooooo“

“Recently visited this Place and Maria the owner helped us out with our desert selections! She was amazing very lovely lady, gave us amazing customer service. The deserts here are delicious. Definitely recommending to visit this place if you haven't. I live in Arizona, but every time I'm in California I'll be visiting for sure.!<3“

“Very good ice cream! Yes they don’t have the yogurt you typically are used to but their water based ice creams is very good! You definitely need to try and be open minded to trying new types of ice cream . The customer services was good as well.“

“Best Boba ever me and my parents loved the taste it was so yummy 10/10 Thank you :3“
