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

“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!“

“There’s so many people that come here before 1 o’clock and you guys are never open OK I’m one of them. There’s like six more people that came to the door but you guys weren’t open. I think 1 o’clock is too late. More people turning away 🤷🏻‍♀️ and please make sure your fruit is fresh Yesterday it was pretty bad“

“Took my mom for a nice 🍦ice cream treat. I need to add, thats the young lady that was there , this Saturday 10/18 was absolutely nice, attentive and respectful it makes you happy to see customer-service like this. The Yogurt was very good too. 🤗“

“Some of the employees here are lazy and not friendly. Some are outstanding. It depends on who you get. I’ve walked in multiple times and girls are sitting around talking about life or on their phones without an acknowledgement. Then when they’re asked a question, they seem annoyed.“

“Everything was amazing. Best Viet food I've had in South OC. Beef baguette (bahn mi) was a great value. Flavorful, rich, and packed with veggies. Light, airy baguette. Aromatic gelato. Creamy brown sugar boba beverage. Clean restroom. Overall, would come back again.“

“I would buy a juice here daily if it fit in my budget!“

“The chocolate they use for their bananas is dairy free. Love the allergy friendliness. I wish they’d keep the Rocky Road topping more frequently. It’s so great and gluten free. Otherwise they don’t have gluten free options besides the drizzles.“

“delicious gelato, family friendly and the people are so nice there! they answered all my questions regarding allergies, from nut allergies to gluten free options, we're very happy to have found this gem ❤️“

“Dolce Gelato is by far the BEST Gelato! Both the vegan and non-vegan options are uniquely crafted and simply scrumptious.“

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

“This place is super cute and perfect to take the kids, family, or date for a sweet delight. They even serve homemade affordable meals.

We enjoyed a lunch date here which consisted of:
Purple rice yogurt (most popular dessert)
mango pomelo yogurt (my favorite)
Strawberry probiotic tea (so refreshing and easy to drink)
Pineapple coconut jelly
Bbq wings
steam dumplings (half the price of Din Tai Fung and still good!)
lobster ball (I love lobster)
popcorn chicken
braised pork with rice (my favorite dish here)“

“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!“

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

“Rita’s in Dana is always such a treat! The staff is super friendly, the service is quick, and everything is always fresh and delicious. The Italian ice and custard combos are amazing—perfect on a hot day. The shop is clean, welcoming, and has that fun local vibe that makes you want to keep coming back. Definitely a go-to spot for anyone craving something sweet!“

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

“Really love this ice cream shop! They have a vegan chocolate chip peanut butter flavor that is so creamy, you can’t even tell it’s made with almond milk. It definitely hits the spot when I’m craving ice cream. It is located in a small shopping strip along Pacific Coast Highway in Dana Point. There is a small parking lot to the side as well as more parking above the shopping center. It’s a great place to walk and less than 10 minutes from Dana Point Harbor. They are also open late, which is a plus!“

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

“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!“

“Freshly made creamy ice cream every day!“

“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.“

“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’“

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

“Absolutely love this place! The ice cream is top-notch—super creamy and packed with flavor. I could come here every day and never get tired of it. The portions are generous, and the waffle cones are always fresh. Staff is friendly and quick to serve. Can’t recommend it enough!“

“The Acai bowls are amazing!! Glazed Donut Fro-yo is another of my favorites!!“

“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!!!😡“

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

“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. 🍪“

“KELSIE KELSIE KELSIE....I had to take the time to give my sincere and true appreciation for one of the workers at this location. She always has the best energy and her smile is soo warming. Tonight she turned out what was going to be a disaster birthday for my roommate and totally turned it around for me. They were out of the deliciously AMAZING Oreo Cream Pie Cookie ( IF YOU HAVNT HAD THIS YOU'RE TOTALLY MISSING OUT) for the day and it was 20 mins from closing. She went above and beyond to make sure I left with enough Oreo Pies and then some to complete my birthday desert gift and I cant THANK HER ENOUG!!! KELSIE THANK YOU FOR BEING A GREAT EMPLOYEE AND GOING ABOVE AND BEYOND FOR ME TONIGHT. ITS EMPLOYEES LIKE YOU THAT WILL KEEP ME COMING TO THIS STORE ONLY AND TELLING ALL MY FRIENDS AND FAMILY ABOUT YOUR LOCATION. I GREATLY APPRECIATE YOUR KINDNESS AND HARD WORK 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽“

“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!!!“

“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!!“

“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.“

“It was kind of busy with just one employee but he was very focused on each customer's experience. When he got to us it was like we were his first customers of the day although I could see how hard he was working. Great work, nice to see. Oh and the ice cream was really good too.“

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

“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!“

“Delicious ice cream and very clean place!“

“This place takes ice cream to the next level! They mix your favorite flavors and toppings right in front of you on a frozen slab which was pretty unique.

I tried one of their signature mixes and the texture was smooth, the mix-ins were well-balanced (not just dumped on top), and the portion was generous. Their shakes are also great , thick and flavourful.“

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

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

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

“So yummy and the workers are so nice!“

“What a great place for taco Tuesday! They have two types of Tuesday menus and I had the fish taco that ended at 5:30. I had two different ones and they were fabulous. Drinks go on all night and they were very good too. I will definitely be back.“
