50 Best Ice Cream Shops near Fountain Valley

“Great customer service. Apologized several times for the wait. Helped me order a birthday cake to pickup in a couple of days. Very pleasant experience.“

“Very good frozen yogurt. nice and clean inside. BUT..... Horrible Staff. young girl is sweet but the 3 old ladies were extremely Rude, Crabby, and Mean“

“Their ice cream is delicious the reason why I only put four stars instead of 5 is because if you want a pint of a specific kind and they don't have it they will offer to scoop out a pint for you. But they don't pack it down so realistically you're only getting 1/3 of a pint but paying for a full. 😑“

“Awesome service, went there to get one of their amazingly delicious ice cream cakes as my son’s birthday was coming. The staff was really nice, they answered all my queries. Best ice cream in town. I’ll be back soon.“

“Delicious ice cream!! It was our first time trying this shop and we will definitely be coming back! We got a Brownie ice cream and a Caramel ice cream they both tasted absolutely amazing. Also the service was extremely friendly. One of the must visit ice cream shops for sure!! 💓💓💓“

“This ice cream parlour is located in Downtown Disney between the two parks.\n\nIt can get really busy as evidenced by some of the queues we saw, but it was quiet late afternoon and staff were patient as we tried samples to make our decision.\n\nWe opted for chocolate chip and a chocolate fudge both of which were great.“

“I was craving something different from the usual Vietnamese chè or boba. Bake&Che is my go-to comfort spot, but I found this place that stays open later than most. I saw a few people online rave about the purple rice yogurt, and when the person ahead of me ordered it too, I took it as a sign. I ended up getting that and the durian ice cream. I’m so glad I did. The texture of the “Purple Rice Yogurt / Nếp Cẩm Bạch Ngọc” was so satisfying, and the durian ice cream had that bold, unmistakable punch I love.“

“Todo muy rico👌 y excelente servicio las muchachas que atienden muy amables ❤️“

“Dining at Kulfime was more than a meal, it felt like a warm hug. The cozy atmosphere and kind, welcoming made me feel right at home. Every dish was crafted with care, bursting with authentic flavors that instantly comforted my soul. The portions were generous, the prices fair, and the experience unforgettable. Whether you're a longtime fan of Indian food or new to it, this is the kind of place that leaves you smiling long after you’ve left. I can’t wait to return and relive the magic!!“

“Place is awesome, great dairy free options too for vegan eaters. Shop’s theming is hilarious and took me right back to high school. Staff is friendly and they have a stamp card program! Give them your money!“

“i'm from LA and have been SEARCHING for a gelato shop that makes it the authentic italian way, with no artificial dyes/flavors and the correct texture. i stumbled across this place while in newport with my family and knew i had to try it immediately when i saw the way the gelato is stored (in the steel tins, as opposed to giant mountains like most places in the US). definitely not disappointed. the flavors were done perfectly and not overly sweet, and you could so tell it was natural. i honestly think it's worth the 2 hour drive from LA to come back here🤣 please open a second location“

“Ricas nieve y ricas galletas“

“It was very easy to order on the app. The delivery was fast. The driver arrived with a smile and my ice cream in a cooler bag. I ordered Sea Sal with Carmel Ribbons and Almond Brittle with Salted Ganache, both are delicious. Best ice cream in town.“

“Fairlawn store is great! Ice cream is amazing! Staff is very helpful& takes care of customers quickly ! Highly recommend !“

“The mango sorbet was delicious! Definitely pairs well with a walk on the beach haha. This ice cream shop is in a busy area of Huntington Beach. Service was quick but the teen (I’m assuming) boy that was the one serving us, wasn’t very inviting or friendly. I hope next time that we are there we get a friendlier service since I did witness other nicer people.“

“Ghirardelli is an absolute must-stop inside Disney California Adventure! Everything we tried was beyond delicious—from the rich sundaes to the perfectly creamy shakes. The chocolate is heavenly, and every bite feels like a treat worth celebrating. The staff was friendly and quick, even with the busy crowds, and the atmosphere was fun and welcoming. Whether you’re cooling off with an ice cream or grabbing a little chocolate pick-me-up, this spot never disappoints. Truly the sweetest highlight of our Disney day!“

“Delicious variety of cookies and so many milks to choose from. pure heaven“

“SomiSomi in Irvine is an absolute five-star spot for dessert lovers! The soft serve is incredibly smooth, creamy, and full of flavor — especially when paired with their freshly made taiyaki cones that come out warm and perfectly crisp. The mix of hot and cold makes every bite amazing.

The store is clean, modern, and well-run, with a fun and inviting vibe. The staff are friendly and patient, even when it’s busy, and the presentation of everything is always picture-perfect. They offer plenty of unique flavors and toppings, so there’s always something new to try.

Whether you’re a local or just visiting Irvine, this place is a must-visit for a sweet treat that never disappoints. Five stars all the way!“

“Shaved ice and Dole Whip!!!!“

“The Baseline: For theme park to-go food stands the food must be tasty, have an experience, reliable service, and be a part of the experience.

Food: You are here for the Dole Whips! There are other items but I repeat… you are here for the Dole Whips. This visit was the Pineapple Upside Down Cake Dole Whips. WOW! Just… Wow! Best Dole Whip I ever had hands down. Little cakes bites with strong and awesome pineapple flavor. This is the stuff that will make me fat again. Love this and Disney please keep this on the menu.

Service: Disney cast member service is super top notch service. Compliment you cast members on the Disneyland app as that is the Disney way to tip at non-sit down restaurants.

Ambiance: Tropical Hawaii feels next to the Jungle Cruise with Fifi talking to you from her perch. Pure Disney magical feeling and it is great to be here at night with the tiki torches blazin’. Love the Tropical Hideaway!“

“I had the black cherry shake one of the best shakes I ever had will definitely recommend it to anyone my girlfriend had the strawberry shake and it didn’t disappoint us they were both good. The donuts are delicious made to order hot and fresh 🤤. I love the peanut butter and their cinnamon one. Can’t wait to go back and try other items.“

“La Michoacana is our absolute favorite spot for a sweet treat! We love coming here—the ice creams, paletas, and snacks are full of authentic Mexican flavor and so refreshing. Everything tastes homemade and delicious, from the creamy classics to the fruity and unique flavors you can’t find anywhere else. The colors, the energy, and the friendly service make every visit fun and special. It’s the perfect place to enjoy as a family and always leaves us smiling. Highly recommend for anyone who loves authentic Mexican ice cream and snacks!“

“Stopped in with my boys and though we generally have good customer service at most Cold Stones with a couple of exceptions a while back at the Garden Grove location on Chapman, Stephanie provided outstanding customer service from the minute we walked in until the minute we walked out. It wasn't a surprise to find out that she was part of the management team when I asked. Seems that you provide a great example to your teammates.“

“I don’t know what it is, but I absolutely love their cheddar filled fish“

“We love Brusters for sure. Always sweet people working there. Every flavor we have tried we have loved. We always take it to go as we did last evening. Got it home and of our 2 hot fudge Sundaes only 1 had fudge. What the....super bummed about that.“

“As always I loved their frozen yogurt, but I wish they have flavors without sugar added, still good!�“

“First time here and I got the mango ice cream rolls. It was pretty good I felt bad cause there was only one guy there working for a bit and it got busy fast. The wait wasnt long and the price was not too bad. I will be back to try other flavors. Thank you for a lovely first visit.“
