“son muy ricos los helados 😋“

Stopped by for some gelato and was really impressed by the variety of flavors, especially the lactose-free (vegan) options. Got to try three samples, and all of them were smooth, flavorful, and well-balanced. It can be hard to find good dairy-free gelato, but they nailed the texture—creamy and satisfying without feeling icy or thin.

Service was friendly and efficient, and there was no long wait, making it an easy stop for a quick treat. The setting is nice, though more of a grab-and-go spot than a place to sit and linger.

If you’re lactose-intolerant or just love good gelato, this place is definitely worth checking out!“

“Muy ricos panes aber cuando metrais otro bolsita many“

“Okay, so Yogurtland in Mountain View is honestly a vibe. The flavors always hit, especially the seasonal ones—pumpkin froyo? Weirdly good. Plus, the fact that you can build your own? Love that. You can mix and match like crazy, and the topping selection is chef's kiss (popping boba + cookie dough is low-key my go-to).

The spot itself is super chill, no pressure, just grab your cup, get creative, and vibe. Prices are decent unless you pile on like a mountain of toppings (been there, no regrets ?). It’s also a nice hangout spot if you wanna chill with friends or just take a solo froyo break.

Overall: Solid flavors, fun DIY setup, and just a cool place to hit up when you're craving something sweet. Would def come back.“

“Friendly service, good yogurt. Many toppings to to choose from. One of the rare frozen yogurt places that have the toppings always fresh and not stale. Excellent. 10/10“

“Great neighborhood ice cream store that features a variety of unique flavors! Highly recommend this if you are in the Sunnyvale area and are looking for eggless ice cream options. Plenty of great options to choose from at incredible prices!“

“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!“

“Small store, but there's tons of seating outside. Really quick service.

October 2024 flavours: All pretty average. This is quite the disappointing month. None of the limited edition flavours really stood out. Ended up getting a split scoop of the candycopia (the candy bits were nice) and creepy crawlers (the matcha was acceptable). Pumpkin bread could use more pumpkin spice, essence of ghost is for the licorice lovers, blackberry tamales is skippable.“

“The best worst flavor
They have abominations like habanero with berries and strawberries with pepper and balsamic, for the bold.

The rest of less weird combinations are just delicious, vanilla bean with sea salt and caramel, lavender, chocolate brownie.

Generous portions and long line on weekends, try them on off-peak hours and you can have a couple of tastes“

“Happiness in a cup. And a cone 😁“

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

“Walked over for a treat after lunch at a nearby cafe. And was pleasantly surprised by how delicious it was. I got the chocolate with Nutella. So good. Lines were much shorter than other ice cream spots in the area and it was a nice walk to get there.“

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

“Snowtime: A Chocolate Lover's Dream
Snowtime's shaved ice is a delightful treat for chocolate enthusiasts. The ice is incredibly fine, providing a silky texture that melts on your tongue. The chocolate flavor is rich and intense, without being overly sweet. The addition of toppings like whipped cream and chocolate sauce enhances the experience. If you're craving a refreshing and indulgent dessert, Snowtime is definitely worth a visit.“

“High quality fro-yo and “hand made” ice cream. By hand made they mean made from cream to ice cream in a “frozen pan” in front of you. Super tasty and honestly I think they should charge more. Their Matcha and Ube flavor are to die for. Full of Japanese customers.“

“The first Somi I ever went to! Cool to see that they've now expanded to many more locations across the country and every one I've tried is consistent in quality.

I recommend their upside-down with nutella/red bean fill + any soft serve flavor of your choice. Their individual taiyaki is also delicious and served fresh.

There's often a line during peak hours, but it moves quickly! The storefront itself is super small but there's plenty of seating outside. Never had issues parking in the Main St structure; however, street parking can be hard around mealtimes.“

“lo mejor, las hacen riquísimas“

“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“

“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)“

“Homemade ice cream is so yummy... the best👍👌“

“Muy rico, me encanto todo lo k compre pero especialmente las fresas con crema,“

“The best yogurt 🍦, at woodside Rd“

“I saw a worker from another place come back from break holding a churro. I had to ask where, this shop was two doors down. First I ordered the churro and then I saw the fun ice cream varieties. Settled on a refreshing soursop, it had seeds! My friend got a dried fruit and he said that grew on him. There are many other flavors to try next time. Service was nice, there are a couple of tables to sit and eat other snacks that they make as well. PS the churros were OK, crispy and sweet but the middle was not as crispy as fresh out of a fry vat in Mexico.“

“I love bingsoo. You can never go wrong with fruit ones!
Parking can be difficult but if you don't park too close, it's not bad. The wait is long to order (there is two ordering kiosk or a cashier for takeout) and to get your order; but there's a decent amount of tables so you'll most likely get one to sit at to wait unless it's super crowded.“

“Among all of us we had the Rose, Kulfi, vanilla, strawberry, chocolate, and also the puppy icecream. All the flavors were really nice and you could see real vanilla bean powder, nuts in the different flavors. Pepper did not stop licking till her icecream was done and then was looking for more. The people behind the counter were very friendly and kind to our chaos. We will definitely be going back.“

“A must stop every time I’m in Honolulu/Waikiki now. I love there chewy texture and the lilikoi is to die for!!“

“Amazing sandwiches and bread!!!!“

“Shakes and good breakfast“

“it's the best ice cream i have ever had. evan the flavers they have had that doesent sound like it would be good .. is real good. and they give you samples if you want to try a flavor before you buy it.“

“The best Sandwich in 100 miles! Been coming here ever since it opened and will continue to eat delicious sandwiches for years to come. NOM NOM NOM.“

“Excellent food, excellent taste reasonable price“

“Love their flavors and their ice cream isn’t overly sweet. Just the right amount where you can still taste the actual flavor and not just the sugar. Very creamy and all around delicious!“

“Review for Bellaroma Gelato** I recently had the pleasure of trying Bellaroma’s gelato, and I can honestly say it’s one of the best treats I’ve ever enjoyed! The flavors are rich, creamy, and perfectly crafted — I especially loved the Stracciatela and mango, which had that perfect balance of sweetness and depth. Every spoonful felt like a little moment of happiness, made with so much care and quality ingredients. What makes Bellaroma stand out even more is their warm, welcoming atmosphere and the friendly staff. Posting my experience on their site was easy and made me feel like part of their gelato-loving community. I highly recommend giving it a try — it’s a wonderful place to indulge and create sweet memories. I can’t wait to go back for more!“

“One of the best ice cream experiences I’ve had! The chocolate ice cream at CREAM is on another level—rich, creamy, and full of intense flavor that hits just right. You can tell they don’t cut corners on quality. The texture is smooth and satisfying, and every bite tastes like pure chocolate bliss. Staff was super friendly and the whole vibe of the shop made it feel like a treat in every sense. If you’re a chocolate lover, this place is a must-visit!“

“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“

“The staff here is always friendly and helpful. They always find a way to accommodate a request even if it is last minute. For example they took care of me on Saturday when I needed a cake for my son's birthday party on Sunday without any complaints even though I was the one asking late. At the Santa Cruze Ave location in Menlo Park I was told that all I could so was choose from what was in the display fridge. Props to Carlos at the EPA location who even gave me his personal cell to make sure everything was seamless! And the cake was super yummy as well!!!“

“She is now located in front of Tere’s Boutique near the Chavez Supermarket by Middlefield Road.I love her raspados so much! I used to get them after church growing up. Her recipes are delicious and traditional. My favorite one is the raspado de Guanábana (soursop). It’s perfectly sweet and the pieces of fruit are delicious. I have also tried and liked her limon, rompope, vainilla, coco, nuez, mango con chile and chicle flavors.I recommend also trying their tostilocos with everything plus extra hot sauce. They are super delicious and a very generous size. Her fruit cups are also really good. The fruit is always perfectly ripe and fresh.Definitely recommend when you’re in Redwood City. All her antojitos are delicious, fresh and never overpriced. Great value, taste and quality.“

“Lots of unique flavors. It’s so good.“

“This place is perfect for anyone who wants try something or wants to make something of their own like the vaso delicioso with combines fruit, chips, nuts, and candy with whatever sauce you want at the end, also the banana split is very good.“

“unique way of making ice cream. Never seen before. very yummy“

“Must try🍨
Hot fudge sundae
2 scoops :
Tahitian vanilla
Chocolate covered strawberries ( fav)

You can ask them to add warmed up brownie!!

They do have a punch card!!“

“This is how you package for delivery. Unlike coldstone and other places,pinkberry actually makes sure it doesn't melt on the way to you by putting ice in the bag. I wish they find a way to make their yogurt without the guar gum,carageenan,and other additives tho.“

“Cookies are hit or miss, some weeks they just don't taste very good at all. Maybe they've just been sitting out too long when we've ordered? This location is always short on workers. Orders take awhile. We've also been ignored for a curbside order before. That was an unfortunate night. Overall, we opt for other places before Crumbl, unless the flavors sound like something you NEED to try. Which thankfully doesn't happen too often, since there's a high chance they won't be very good. Flavors are also oftentimes sold out.“

“I recently visited this place and had an amazing experience! I ordered the Tostitos con elotes and it was incredibly delicious. The service was top-notch and the ladies at the counter were super friendly. I'll definitely be back for more!“

“Even with my limited Spanish the ladies were very nice and helped me order a delicious fresh made agua Fresca. They used actual blended mango rather than just powder and it was just the right amount of sweetness. Clean nice place and super reasonably priced go support!“

“I ordered through DoorDash and both things I ordered were really good and filling. The elote I feel isnt worth the cost of the size. I can pay less and get it from a street vendor. It satisfied my craving and tasted great though but wont order it again from here.

The Churrito bubble waffle was very good and being so hot outside it cooled be down. I dont think it's worth the cost either though. They give you half a churro and one scoop of ice cream. I can buy a bubble waffle somewhere else and a small pint of ice cream for same price.

So be aware that the food is good but you are better off going to downtown San Jose to La michoacana ice cream parlor. This place is just convenient that’s about it.“
