“These people are incredible and the Gelato is better than 99% of the Gelato I had in Italy. They opened during Covid and SURVIVED if that tells you anything. Both of them are wonderful humans and the Gelato is extraordinary. Plus they saved dogs from food markets overseas. Doesn't get much better. Please check them out.“

“Scoops is the kind of ice cream shop where you discover flavors you never imagined—brown bread, lavender honey, and more. The texture is creamy without being heavy. Prices are reasonable for artisanal ice cream. It’s a small space, but service is fast and friendly. Always something new to try.“

“So cool to be appreciated, and have our spirits lifted at KP LAMC Rehab with Pazzo Gelato!“

“From the little I stole from my boyfriend, the ice cream was very delicious. The soft serve ice cream was smooth, creamy, and sweet. The taiyaki was light, crispy, warm and it was very nice. Maybe next time I'll order my own just for me.“

“Employee was incredibly kind and helpful! It is evident she loves her job in how she speaks with her customers and makes sure all needs are met! Even the people who can in after us were helped down to a very specific need of theirs! THE FRUIT IS SO FRESH AND THE PALETAS ARE INCREDIBLY TASTY, tasting exactly as their names insist!“

“Fell in love with each and every bite of my crêpe. NomZ 😋“

“Stopped by this ice cream shop on a beautiful saturday evening. Had a cool old school vibe to it with a jukebox. We sampled various flavors (hibiscus sorbet, pistachio, mint chip, chocolate, coconut). I went with the coconut on a cone. It was good! I would definitely come back and try other flavors.“

“Ice cream is delicious. I wasn’t expecting sweet and tart at the same time.“

“A really cool and modern ice cream shop with soooo many tasty flavours! They had classic flavours plus original ones too. I got the pumpkin with a waffle cone and it was sooo good! I'd never heard of Van Leeuwen before but now they're on my radar - I'll be looking out for them for sure!“

“delicious. adorable highly recommend“

“I am usually not the type to write a review, but the service that Sebastian provided was top tier. Sebastian allowed us to sample some products and provided some creative suggestions when it came to combination like a peanut butter and jelly like option when it came to gelato. He was extremely patient with me as I made chose a flavor or gelato to take home and even promoted the points system when imputing our phone number before purchasing it. His service alone is 5 stars alone and the products that were sold were extremely delicious as well, I am looking forward to trying more flavors and running into him again for more suggestions he comes across of.“

“Pink rose ice cream for the win!!!“

“Omg I'm so so happy I live in San degio and a
Friend of mine told me this ice cream shop has been a staple in l.a. for years
..and to my best happiest surprise they had my child hood ice cream. Yesss LEMON CUSTARD ...I LOVE HERE“

“Goat Cheese and Black Olives ice cream was delicious. The service was exceptional and the customer service provided by EVERY SINGLE ONE of their ice cream parlor workers was outstanding. You wont go wrong visiting the Abbot Kinney location.“

“This place is wonderful and all of the people that work there are very kind and friendly. Last time I went, there was this really nice worker named Elizabeth who was so nice and very friendly. I love this place and it is great quality! It is a great ice cream place and it is wonderful! By the way, salted caramel is delicious!!!!!!!!! I love it!!! It is also less expensive than other ice cream places on Larchmont and very tasty!“

“We went to Bacio di Latte in Brentwood and honestly, we won’t be going anywhere else. Mario, Denise, and Rosa were absolutely amazing — so warm, welcoming, and kind. They made us feel right at home and truly turned our visit into such a special night. Their energy and hospitality stood out just as much as the gelato.“

“Delicious!!! Sweet treat that hits the spot - not too sweet, refreshing, and overall very yummi. Our fam got La Toxica, Horchaty, and a drill your own with froyo + banana + strawberry (granola topping). Their pink truck is located at the corner of York & 51st.“

“I came here to say, I have never heard of this brand before but last night while shopping at my local Jay C (kroger), I stumbled across the Gluten free Gooey Butter cake ice cream and i’m so very glad I did!!! it’s delicious!!!! It’s not often us Gf people get to have cake and I actually don’t care for ice cream. I rarely eat it but that has all changed thanks to Jeni’s. I love it so much I might have ate half of it in one sitting….we listen and we don’t judge 😝. A+++++++++. Please don’t stop making this!“

“Agua fresca and ice cream so good,variety of flavors 😋😋😋“

“I don't crave ice cream often but when I do, I expect nothing but the best. My girlfriend recommended we go to this spot because it's been a staple in the area over the years.

I ordered their banana split and it was THEBOMB.COM. I 100% recommend this spot but keep in mind that this place is CASH ONLY.“

“best ice dessert !!!“

“PROTEIN SHAKES I REPEAT PROTEIN SHAKES!! There’s no place around like this one! Humble spot , Cheap compara to Jamba Juice or any other smoothie place! Reasonable prices and there’s never a line ! All flavors you think or want to mix with your protein powder !“

“This is a must-try spot in Los Angeles. I haven’t had frozen yogurt in over eight years because it’s almost impossible to find it vegan, so coming here felt like pure nostalgia—straight back to being a high schooler grabbing froyo! The flavors absolutely delivered. I mixed chocolate and peanut butter and topped it with fruit, caramel sauce, and coconut, and it was perfection—creamy, balanced, and not overly sweet. I also really appreciate that they use clean ingredients with no artificial stuff, which makes it even better. The waffle cones are excellent too. If you’ve been missing frozen yogurt since going vegan, this place will hit the spot. Updated from previous review on 2026-01-03“

“Their ice cream are so delicious 😋 We had so much fun and memorable get together with our family who came to visit out of States for the holidays.“

“Stopped by All Chill, the Hip Hop Ice Cream Shop today. Had a scoop of Rose Liqueur and Cherry Vanilla. Both are to die for...huge whole black cherries and the flavor of blessed rose...yum!“

“Old-school fast-food chain famous for soft serve. Their “chocolate dipped” cone still tastes nostalgic. I got the cheeseburger and fries; patties were thin but seasoned, fries crispy. Classic shake is thick and rich. Place felt like stepping back to the ‘60s—a simple joy.“

“We enjoy FF, but our location @Whittier and Orme Ave desperately needs a refresh of the paint and sign. It would be such a bright spot in the neighborhood! It could be a great marketing event.“

“Delicious and creamy gelato. I got the dark chocolate and pistachio scoops on a pistachio filled waffle bowl. The gelato wasn't too sweet and the staff let us try a lot of different flavors. I really liked the hazelnut flavor too. Hit the spot after a ramen dinner.“

“Ice Cream Occasions was such a fun and unique addition to our event! The ice cream cart looked great and added a nostalgic touch, and the selection of treats was perfect. The staff was super friendly and made everything really easy, from booking to setup. It definitely made the day feel extra special, and I’d totally recommend them for any party or event.“

“Unique and flavorful selections of pies and sortserve.“

“If I'm feeling I'll drop by for a cone and that it. Order outside through the window. They have seats but outside on the side. Is a regular ice cream shop they do offer other food items but haven't tried that yet. Fairly priced, although the ice cream is not fully dairy it seems. Because it melts really quickly and it tastes more water based than anything. Aside from that, the taste is there.

Parking: They do have parking in the back. There's also plenty on the street not metered.“

“I was introduced to La Michoacana about a year ago and I’ve been going back ever since. I’m always greeted with a smile and the selection is amazing. My favorite is the Mangoneada. This place always has parking, is clean and there’s always a table to sit and enjoy.“

“Love their ice cream, aguas frescas and especially their crepes 😋😋😋😋“

“Best ice-cream shop around. I Love their variety of ice cream. I can’t decide which is my favorite one. The workers are friendly and helpful.
The music playing was inappropriate for the few children in the shop. I won’t get into details, but it was definitely inappropriate.“

“Absolutely amazing ice cream 🍨“

“Wonderful Customer Service!! It's about time we have a new Ice Cream Shop in this neighborhood! A nice spot to visit for afternoon, evening or after dinner sweet treat. Here is proof that there are still some good things happening in South L.A., and Jayis Ice Cream Shop is one of them. Come check ' em out, you'll love it!! :-) :-* <3“

“My favorite ice cream shop I take my baby here every morning before school to get her a snack.“

“I came here with my family over the weekend and loved the experience so much I was compelled to write my first Google review ever!

Seriously, this place is so family friendly. My daughter loves all of the crazy flavors and combinations. The best part to me is the quality of the ice cream. You can really tell the difference because they actually make their ice cream onsite instead of transporting it. Definitely will be coming back here again with my family.“

“Ad a big foodie with a sweet tooth, I wasn't prepared for this place! Thought i would be able to sample but its on me, I should've looked at the menu and interior layout prior. If your a creative person and like options this is the place for you! Just keep in mind there is a dispensary 100 ft away in the same lot so lots of weed smell. Because of that, I wouldnt say its as family friendly but other than that you will satisfy your craving here!“

“Went here on a whim on a Saturday evening after going to Gold Line. There was a line but it moved pretty quick. Enough time to look at the vast ice cream menu.

I sampled a Texas Sheet Cake and got a Miso Butterscotch Brownie. Both were delicious!

Overall, highly recommend coming here. Delicious ice cream set in a historical building. Service was nice too.“

“Amazing ice cream, green juices, and tortas ❤️“
