You'll be surprised I think. Might not want it for your final selection, but it's not 'all that bad' either. Plus - their waffle bowls a divine!“

“Last evening had a real craving for a classic banana split. Drove to the nearby BR and was able to create my special ice cream sundae. The split banana was placed in the dish and I chose cherry jubilee, fresh peach, and chocolate fudge ice cream scoops. Pineapple, strawberry, and hot fudge toppings were added next. Finally, chopped nuts, whipped cream, and maraschino cherries were piled high on my creation. A sight to behold! I feared a sugar overload, but still I ate the whole thing! Yum! 😜🤪🤣🥴👍❤️❤️❤️“

“An uncommon find but some of the most tastiest food you can find in Los Gatos, I never mind making the trip over here just to have the food. It tastes great, a good price and one of the best Curio spots to be! Inside and outside is great and if you love unusual shakes, its the place to be!“

“A fantastic endearing Ice-cream tasting & eating experience that causes you to marvel at the stature that Ice-cream making has come to acquire can indeed be felt on the palate with every Icecream flavor at PINTS OF JOY. The service with Smiles & Excitement & warmth of the Servers caught my attention. It made the experience all the more endearing. I tried many & loved the Jalebi with Malai Kulfi Ice-cream. A remarkable unique Indian Ice-cream. As an Indian American I feel immensely proud to see the popularity this Ice-cream has come to acquire in the heart of Silicon Valley! This Ice-cream venture is showcasing India Impressively internationally: tickling the taste buds!“

“Delicious ice creams! Great, friendly service. Had an Earl Gray ice cream
and a Thai tea ice cream-both were delightful! Owners really want you to have a positive experience. We had to wait a few minutes while our ice creams were carefully made but our ice creams were more than worth it. We don’t live in the area but this is destination worthy so we will be back.
Oh, and side note: kids LOVE this place! They get to fill up a container with many, many flavors of frozen yogurt (healthier option)! They can reach the handles themselves so are in heaven!“

“Tasty Italian gelato 🍧 ice cream, not too sweet; just right!“

It’s the perfect spot to share sweet moments with the whole family. The shop itself is bright and welcoming, with plenty of seating and a super friendly staff that makes every visit a great experience.

“From Day one of tasting your delicious meals, we knew you'd be a big part of our family. Thank you for choosing to bring your business to Willow Glen. Blessings“

“First time visiting, the ahboong I had was breathtakingly delicious (Ube & Cookies N Cream). For first-timers I would advise you to take the upside down one since it can get messy! In any case, the custard filled waffle cone rounded off a great, unique ice-cream flavor, though I will have to run 3 miles extra to compensate for the calorific gain, but I probably won't because I never run.

Go here if you don't care about calories but value taste.“

“Staff is friendly - love the rewards system and fudgy flavours! I just had the Coffee Almond Fudge and Cookies & Cream mix - mmmmm 🤤 (Forgot to take a pic until I finished... sorry haha)“

“It tasted like their ice cream is crafted on site. They were busy so I didn't ask. They do build the ice cream taco in front of you and then drop it in liquid nitrogen.

I am cheap so 7 bucks for my double flavor taco dipped in dark chocolate was a bit expensive, but it was a nice treat and fun to watch. It wasn't expensive really for what you get, I am just a cheapo. Lol“

“great snack menu and delicious ice cream, highly, highly recommend!“

“🤍🤍🤍 so goooood! It’s the best desert place ever. Wish we had closer locations to home but this will do.“

“La Michoacana in San Jose is a nice spot with an impressive array of flavors . The variety is one of its standout features, with so many options to choose from that it can be a bit overwhelming—in the best possible way.

I tried the frozen banana, which was a delightful treat.
The ice cream also received positive feedback from the kids, who found it both interesting and flavorful. The unique combinations and traditional Mexican flavors add a fun twist to the usual ice cream experience.“

“My first time here.Service was excellent.Had the Pineapple 🍍 Dole Whip delicious and refreshing.Will definitely return.“

“The best cookies I’ve had in a while. I don’t have much of a sweet tooth but these are so so good! I love the new variety of flavors every week and how they’re so unique and different than the generic cookies you buy in the grocery store. The price isn’t too bad either! For a box of 6 cookies it’s $22 but the cookies are HUGE. I can never finish one by myself so I leave them to the rest of my family. Also pro tip download the crumble app so you can earn free rewards. 100 points equals to $10 you can use towards the cookies.“

“I love this place very much. I find myself coming back often. Their tortas are filled with flavor and the perfect size con todo. While I wait for my order, I eat one of their tamales, especially con salsa rojo. The last time I was here, I got the carrot cake also. It was so moist and packed full of the warm spices of fall. Lots of cinnamon. I'm not a fan of raisins but in the cake, they popped in my mouth and added an explosion of flavor and it was a huge slice. They also offer a wide variety of smoothies and crepes, as well as other desserts. And you have to try the empanadas.“

“Usually I do recommend but not today. You put out ads for specials like today 4/19 2 for 10.00 Banana splits ad it has your address and when ì go I'm told it's not for the 4th st location. this is not the first it's happened. Froster Freeze has alot of upcoming specials that won't be honored for that prices. very disappointing“

“Visited this creamery in April 2025!

Employees there were extremely welcoming and allowed me and my girl try out multiple flavors! I originally went inside to see the prices for this area and found that it starts at 4.99 for a scoop which is a great price compared to baskin Robbin’s or other ice cream shops. I highly recommend coming to this shop if you are in the area to receive amazing service and pay a fair price for ice cream and Italian ice.

All the flavors we sampled were great! Definitely coming back to buy the next time I stop by the area!

Thanks Sweet Fix Creamery!“

“Awesome experience, owners are very friendly and really took care of our large group. Great service and delicious raspados . We even got a complementary Diablito.

Vegetarian options: Shaved ice with fresh fruit syrups ( raspados) are a great option.“

“Came for the water, stayed for the people. Leilani, John, and Carmen are so great to talk to and the Aloha they bring.

You can buy the water by the gallon, bring your own bottle. Or, sign up for a 100 or 200 gallon account. They know their regulars by name as you walk in.

They also offer a variety of drinks and cold items. The shave ice is classic and you can add the Hawaiian style with red beans and condensed milk if you'd like. But, I am very partial to their Halo-Halo, a Filipino dessert/merienda. It has all the jellies, beans, Ube halaya, and ice cream you'd want.“

“Loved this first experience of Takiyaki. We had, red bean, blackbean sesame and Nutella. All were delicious. Many customers were walking out with the variants of the waffle like cones with soft serve, and toppings. Parking was available. And we enjoyed sitting the sun right there. Saturday schedule 😋 The recycle, trash and compost bins right there as well.“

“Ordered a face cake through the Baskin Robbin’s app was very easy to upload the photo, they even contacted me to make sure the highest quality was used, the cake came out amazing. Definitely recommend getting your custom ice cream cakes here!“

“Happiness in a cup. And a cone 😁“

“Stopped in for an ice cream urge. Don’t tell my wife or my cardiologist. Got a double scoop of the cookie dough ice cream. Super thick, very flavorful. If you have an urge or you’re high as a kite like most of California, enjoy this little nugget!“

“La Dolce Vita Gelato was an absolute hit at our wedding. We were able to attend a complimentary tasting beforehand and sample a wide variety of their flavors, which made it an easy decision to include them in our celebration.
Their gelato is the real deal – each bite feels like you’ve been transported to the streets of Italy. The cart itself was a charming and elegant addition to our wedding day, and the gelato was every bit as delicious as it was when we first tasted it in their store.“

“Do you want good, durable authentic leather goods ? Well stop by and see what’s in store for you. From traditional to modern there’s something for everyone in the family. The cleanliness and quality of service you receive is unmatched. Stop on by and don’t miss out on a wide selection of apparel and boots !“

“Great place good ice-creams Many ice creams choices“

“Snow time was amazing! We got the black sesame snow and added boba, which was perfect. The almond crunch and ground soybean made it really nutty and it was so good paired with the black sesame. The snow texture was super fluffy and didn't turn into a melted pile of goop like some other dessert shops.

To top it off, we got 3 mini tayaki with red bean, Nutella and cheese. The cheese was by far the best - like a ooey gooey stretchy mozzarella inside. We'll definitely be back to try other snow flavors!

Update: went back and ran it back with the same black sesame. Except this time we skipped getting a sweet tayaki and went for the ham and cheese! It did not disappoint but the grilled cheese one is still my favorite tayaki flavor 😍“

“Huge line on a Saturday…looked intimidating but it isn’t too bad. It’s a slightly confusing process and there’s no staff to explain everything

1. You wait in line to order at the kiosk. While you can order online as well, that’s only for drinks. So you’re stuck waiting if you want gelato. I recommend ordering online if you only want a drink

2. If you ordered gelato on the kiosk, you proceed to wait in another line that’s usually much shorter. They will verify that you ordered gelato on the kiosk. You can try flavors here as well.

3. If you ordered a drink, it will probably take another 10-15 minutes of waiting inside before they call your number. So eat your gelato!

The matcha ice cream was good. No. 3 had a strong tea flavor that wasn’t overpowering. We paired it with hojicha, which was a nice combo.

The White Matcha Champaca drink was excellent. Beautifully blended Jasmine and matcha flavor, with just the right amount of sweetness.“

“I’ve been coming here for almost 30 years, hands down the best yogurt in Santa Clara county, the staff is usually friendly, except one guy. The biggest downfall is that we should be able to try a couple flavors to see what we like and don’t like before purchasing, I have purchased a couple times where I ended up throwing away my $9 yogurt because it didn’t taste right to me, had I been able to sample first I would’ve known not to purchase that flavor. Please allow samples again…..at least give a limit of 2 free ones, you’re not losing money by allowing a small sample Thanks for the Carbolite options they are a life saver on my healthy lifestyle goals“

“This place is literally like 3 min away from me .love taking my kids after school to get icecream. The prices are so much more reasonable compare to the ice cream trucks now a days. Plenty of different varieties too. Definitely recommend this place to stock up on your kids favorite ice cream:)“

“I had the pleasure of visiting this ice cream shop recently and I must say, it was an experience worth sharing. The variety of flavors was impressive, each one seeming more tempting than the last. I finally settled for their signature as the employee gave me a sample of a scoop of their signature flavor and it was absolutely delightfulBut what truly set this visit apart was the exceptional customer service. A young employee went above and beyond to ensure my experience Their enthusiasm was infectious, and recommendations were spot on.Overall 10/10!I recommend UBE and Biscoff“

“Got coupons and took advantage of it, buy one get one. Clean and friendly service.“

“Good ice cream. Good staff. It was really clean.“

“Ran in for a milkshake and was in and out quickly. Girl was alone and doing a great job. As always, great ice cream!“

“Las mejores nieves echas de fruta naturales..y las paletas también y aora las crepaz“

“Fue cuestión de ordenar una sola vez,y o pude parar me encantan sus manzanas excelente servicio“

“Wide varieties of flavored frozen yogurt and toppings, very clean place, self serving, and yummy... a bit expensive. ⭐️“

“Came here on a weekend with friends and really enjoyed it. Sulbing does authentic Korean snow ice with super fine, milky ice that melts in your mouth—sweet but not heavy. Works great as dessert any time of year.

Green Tea Chocolate Sulbing was a highlight. The matcha is more bitter and fragrant (not overly sweet), paired with chocolate cake and milk ice—very balanced and easy to keep eating.
Strawberry Yogurt Chocoballs Sulbing was refreshing, with a nice sweet-tart yogurt flavor and crunchy chocolate balls for texture.
Dubai Nougat Crunch Ball was a fun surprise—crispy chocolate shell with pistachio cream and crunchy bits inside. Sweetness was well balanced with the snow ice.

We also tried some toasts. Mozzarella Injeolmi Toast is a must when hot—nutty soybean powder, chewy mochi inside, and stretchy mozzarella. Sweet and savory combo works really well. Honey Butter Bread was simple but comforting, best eaten warm.

Overall, great place to share a few shaved ice and toasts with friends. If you like light, fluffy snow ice, Sulbing is a solid choice.“

“You cannot go wrong with any of his raspados! I love his nuez raspado and I get it every time! He is not afraid to serve you a great amount. He is super friendly and provides great recommendations. If you're looking to grab a raspado or tostilocos and you don't want to wait in the long line at La Michoacana then I definitely recommend!“
