50 Best Ice Cream Shops near Hawaiian Gardens

“Everything is excellent, no complaints, IF IT IS USEFUL, JUST BE A LITTLE CONSCIOUS IN CONTROL OF THE PRODUCT, JUST BUY A SCRAPE, AND YOU CAN'T TASTE IT, IT'S AS IF YOU ARE
Taking a candy, EXAGGERATED SUGAR IF YOU CONTROL THAT POINT EVERYTHING EXCELLENT, PERFECT TREATMENT, BUT SUGAR IS CRAZY YOU CAN'T TASTE THANK YOU, very good quality but reduce the sugar, I had to throw it away“

“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.“

“I have been buying the buttermilk berry cornbread such a unique flavor. It’s so good. I’m so addicted to it. I’ve never tasted such a grape flavor in ice cream ever.“

“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.“

“Caramel flavor for the win! And the butter cake was so good. Great CS“

“Heritage Restaurant, Long Beach – A Well-Earned Michelin Star by Michael Broderick. In a city where “Californian” culinary ambition often plays second fiddle to casual dining, Heritage in Long Beach has carved out a place of quiet excellence, earning a well-deserved Michelin star. This intimate dining experience is a testament to ingredient-driven, technique-forward cooking, where flavors are both restrained, unpretentious, and deeply expressive. From the first bite, it was clear that Heritage excels at layering textures and flavors in unexpected ways. The meal began with an Amuse Bouche trio: a delicate prawn cracker topped with sweet Dungeness crab, a green leaf with another seafood salad that was to be eaten like a mini street taco, and balanced with the brightness and light crunch of pickled turnip. A seemingly simple couple of bites, but one that foreshadowed the precision and thoughtfulness of the courses to follow. To cleanse the palate, a mint tea infused with palo santo was served—a meditative interlude that was both refreshing and aromatic, setting the stage for the evening’s journey. The first official course, Crème Caviar, featured Russian Sturgeon Heritage Caviar and chive, a chilled preparation that was rich yet elegantly restrained. This was followed by Kanpachi Crudo, presented with carrot, ginger, and macédoine vegetables, offering a balance of clean ocean flavors against bright, vegetal undertones. Then came what I consider the star of the evening: a dish that fully captured the ethos of Heritage—Hen of the Woods Mushroom, topped in a “sunchoke stew” (crispy fried sunchoke) with fermented mushroom. For an additional $25, an indulgent shaving of black truffle took the dish to another level, transforming it into a sensory experience that evoked the deep, earthy satisfaction of foraging. The interplay of umami-rich elements made this course a masterpiece of textural and flavor contrast. The proteins that followed were executed with equal care. First, a perfectly prepared Rainbow Trout, sauted to perfection with a crispy layer of skin on one side, delicate pink flesh on the other, bathed in a delicate dashi and punctuated with bursts of smoked trout roe in a light creme sauce, which lent salinity and depth. Then, a 32-day dry-aged rib chop, a cut that can sometimes lean too “gamey” in the tradiinal steak house that cuts corners on a post aging trim, yet here was a revelation—tender, deeply beefy, but balanced. Accompanying the dish was sous vide endive, black garlic, and a shaving of Parmesan, which surprisingly lacked the usual sharpness, instead presenting a more rounded, delicate, nutty flavor. Desserts were a study in technique and balance. The first, a Grilled Strawberry with strawberry granita and Meyer lemon crème, was bright and refreshing, its layers revealing different expressions of cool and sweetness. Then came the Coco Craquelin, a delicate choux pastry filled with beurre noisette ganache and banana cremeux, meant to be eaten with the hands—a playful and interactive moment in the meal. Finally, a Sage Basque Cake, its subtle herbaceousness complemented by toasted hemp seeds and lemon curd, provided a grounding, crispy finish. Heritage is the kind of restaurant that doesn’t simply chase trends—it refines them into something personal, something intentional. The execution is confident but never showy, and the experience is paced with precision, allowing each dish to tell its own story. This is not just a meal—it’s a quiet, profound meditation on flavor, technique, and the land from which it all comes. Where other restaurant profess to be a true “Californian” style farm to table experience , Heritage is, without a doubt, a must-visit for anyone who seeks out truly exceptional dining in California.“

Whether you’re into fruity or chocolatey flavors, there’s something for everyone. The staff is friendly and helpful, and the portion sizes are generous.

“recommended to me — I wasn’t disappointed. There was a bit of a line when I arrived, but it moved quickly and the staff were helpful, even with all the hustle. The ordering process was super easy, and the space felt clean and welcoming.

The cookies themselves? Genuinely excellent. Big, warm, and packed with flavour — definitely lived up to the hype. I tried a couple of the weekly specials and would’ve gone back again if I’d had more time in Downey.

Nice stop if you’re travelling and want something sweet (or very American!). Great location too — easy to find and plenty of parking nearby, but we walked as hoteled in the local area“

“Fosters Freeze’s, Large soft serve,Vanilla ice cream cones, dipped in chocolate syrup, are good and messy. They made me a triple cheeseburger back in the early 70’s way before Burger King or In-n- out ever had them.“

“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.

“For being a vegan it’s very hard to find decent ice cream shops but this place is five stars in my book. Very delicious. Very friendly service. Amazing. I will come here for the rest of my life and they rotate the flavors daily so you always get something new best ice cream I’ve ever had for vegan.“

“Best Baskin Robins I’ve ever been too. The staff were beyond friendly and the ice cream tasted amazing. I got 2 scoops and the worker actually took the time to ask if I had a reference. Amazing workers, amazing ice cream, and the decoration is so pretty. I will be coming back soon haha.“

“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.“

“Crumbl Cookies is dessert happiness in a pink box.

The weekly rotating flavors keep things exciting, but even their classic chocolate chip is everything you want in a cookie—gooey center, crispy edges, and just the right amount of chocolate.

The shop is clean and bright, and the staff is always friendly and quick.

You can’t help but smile walking out with that iconic pink box.

Perfect for a sweet pick‑me‑up or sharing (if you’re generous enough to share!).“

“I was craving froyo and came across this place while driving with my children and husband. Good thing we chose this place. It is the best! I've been coming every week or 2 and I get the cherry tart and lavender. It is so delicious. I bring my own organic granola to top it off and it is so yummy. Best froyo ever!“

“Best ice cream around. Employees are awesome.“

“Italian ice was colorful and refreshing with just the right amount of soft serve to ice ratio. Just when I was running out of soft serve I found more at the bottom lolSundae was perfect amount of chocolate and whipped cream. Banana milkshake has fresh bananas combined with thick, creamy ice cream. Overall, a delight!“

“BIRTHDAY MONTH=BIRTHDAY COUPONS=HAPPY RODNEYFree scoop for email club membersIt seems to me the main difference of this location & the Cerritos one is the square footage of the shop. This place is tiny!For my free scoop, I decided to go with the August Flavor of the Month - Game Time!-Salted caramel ice cream, M&M minis, buttered popcorn flavored clusters, caramel pretzel flavored swirls. The combination of sweet & salty was heavenly to my senses. I usually don't like things cloyingly sweet, so the saltiness helped damper the sugar content. Pleasing with each bite, I immensely enjoyed Baskin-Robbins' Game Time ice cream.Service was good. Wait was none existent, as there were no other customers, at the time. Parking is a little tight in the one way lot. Baskin-Robbins is located in between Adalberto's & Pep Boys.A scoop of ice cream in August is a must. More so when it's free! Baskin-Robbins always delights me with their birthday promo, and the difficult part is deciding on which flavor to choose. New, artisan ice cream shops have popped up like weeds, but Baskin-Robbins is still the classic mainstay that still delivers the goods.“

“Jessica was the sweetest girl ever. She even offered me to try the mango smoothie but I refused because I didn’t want to disturb the taste buds I had for the lemon mint. Whoever made the lemon mint drink did an excellent job yet again. I must get this at least ince a week. Support your small businesses. This one deserves 10 stars.“

“Honeymee offers a unique and delicious menu that you can only find in Southern California (as of now). The honey and ice cream are always fresh. However, I noticed that this location can be inconsistent with the amount of ice cream given. Some workers give you lots of everything, while some workers give you quite little. It would be great if they can be more consistent with their portion.“

“We showed up 30 minutes before closing, expecting long lines but there were only a couple of people ahead of us. Our 3 cotton candies were made fast, and were super cute. The employees were very nice, friendly, and patient. This place is great for people of all ages.“

“If your looking for a juice bar better than any other juice bar,this is it.The absolute sweetest,smart,and family minded with the only intention of making you feel better than when you arrived,location.
Not to mention for those whom are God grounded,at Brothers juice,it's called brothers because they will be your fam.
And if any body disrespects it,Haymaker will find you lol.Garden Grove for life
