“son muy ricos los helados 😋“

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

“This gelato shop offers tons of flavors and options to choose from, and everything looked tempting. I visited on a Friday evening, and there was a decent line, so I had to wait a bit before placing my order.

I got a small cup with two flavors — dark chocolate and almond mocha — for about $7, which felt like a reasonable price. The gelato was excellent, with rich, well-balanced flavors. The dark chocolate was the standout for me: intensely chocolatey with just the right amount of sweetness.

Overall, it’s a great spot for gelato, and I’ll definitely be back to try more flavors. Highly recommended!“

“I’d like to share my experience at this Yogurtland location in Mountain View. I happened to be passing by and decided to treat myself to a little indulgence. Upon entering, I noticed that everything was very clean and looked lovely, but I felt overwhelmed—I didn't know what to order given the sheer number of options. The cashier, Sofia—I remember her name well—noticed my hesitation and kindly stepped in to help me out. We chatted for a bit, and she encouraged me to come back again; I certainly won't hesitate to do so—next time, I’ll bring my family along. I truly hope that when I return to this store, I encounter cashiers just like her—or, with a bit of luck, that I’ll be served by her again.“

“El excelente servicio que brindan A la clientela es excelente y sus productos lo mejor“

“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“

“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!“

“Loved this ice cream shop! They had some really unique flavors, and the Pear & Blue Cheese was absolutely amazing. It sounds like an unusual combination, but the sweetness of the pear paired perfectly with the rich, slightly tangy blue cheese. It was creative, balanced, and unlike anything I’ve had before.

The ice cream itself was smooth, creamy, and clearly made with high-quality ingredients. It’s always exciting to find a place that’s willing to try interesting flavors and execute them well.

Great service, great atmosphere, and fantastic ice cream. I’ll definitely be back to try more flavors!“

“This place is especially busy at night, and the line was really long when I visited. I’m glad they offer online ordering and pickup, which saves a lot of time. I was in the area and got curious about this place. I tried their classic sea salt and caramel ribbon, but it wasn’t particularly good, just okay. I’ll try other flavours if I have another chance.“

“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!“

“Tastes amazing as always, and the staff was friendly.

I’m giving 4 stars because I think the place could have a better-looking waiting area. It could be cleaner, and adding a couple of tables for seating would really help.“

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

“The best yogurt 🍦, at woodside Rd“

“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.“

“Yummy cookies. Thank you!“

“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)“

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

“I got the Matcha Pink Guava, it was really refreshing and not too sweet. My friend disagreed and preferred the ice cream.
The matcha ice cream is probably one of the best in the area in my opinion. It’s soft and flavorful. The matcha level 4 is my preferred level.“

“Order the regular brown sugar boba milk tea at 15% sweet with light ice. Even with low sugar it’s still sweet enough because of the boba. Very consistent and rarely made wrong.

I got the fried octopus and it’s always so good. I prefer the legs over the rings. Rarely too chew or overly crispy. Usually my go to unless my kids are with me then I get the fried tofu which is also great!“

“Shakes and good breakfast“

“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!“

“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’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“

“My family and I love this Cold Stone! It’s easily the best location we’ve ever visited. Every time we come in, we feel genuinely welcomed, and the staff have become so friendly that they feel like friends. The ice cream is always amazing, it’s Cold Stone after all! Great customer service and great ice cream makes this a place we love coming back to. Highly recommend!“

“Somisomi is a dessert shop that focuses on the combination of freshly made taiyaki and soft serve, creating a dessert experience that feels both nostalgic and modern. The concept is simple but works well: warm fish-shaped waffle cones filled with different flavors paired with creamy soft serve and toppings. The space is casual and easygoing, making it a fun stop for a quick dessert rather than a place you would spend a long time sitting.

The taiyaki is the main highlight and gives the desserts their signature appeal. The outside has a light crispness while the inside stays soft, creating a nice contrast with the cold soft serve. The fillings offer a good mix of classic and creative options, with red bean, custard, black sesame, and Nutella being some of the popular choices. The red bean keeps things traditional with a mild sweetness, while the black sesame adds a nuttier flavor that pairs especially well with the waffle texture. Nutella works well if you prefer something richer and more dessert-like.

The soft serve is what brings everything together, with flavors like matcha and ube standing out. The matcha has a noticeable tea flavor without becoming too intense, and the ube adds a sweeter, more dessert-focused option. Adding toppings like cookies or cereal gives the dessert extra texture and makes each order feel more customizable. The combination of warm taiyaki, cold soft serve, and different fillings is what makes Somisomi different from a typical ice cream stop.

Service is usually quick, which fits the style of the shop since most people come in for a treat on the go. The menu is straightforward, but there are enough combinations to make repeat visits interesting. Overall, Somisomi is a fun dessert spot that does a great job with a simple concept, especially if you enjoy Asian-inspired desserts and want something that balances warm, crispy, creamy, and sweet in one order.“

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

“Happiness in a cup. And a cone 😁“

“It was my first time here! Mine and my lady’s. And David, the cashier, was AMAZING! Outstanding customer service the best I have seen since I have been in Stanford. I will definitely be back. He made us feel welcomed and he walked me through the menu, not a lot of cashiers do that. David deserves a raise!!! 100 stars to David!!! Thanks to David, we will be back!“

“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!!!“

“Came here with a group of five on a Sunday evening after a heavy dinner. Shaved ice seemed like a light-enough dessert after a meal like that. Bingsoo is popular nowadays, but I don't see many around Campbell, so this was a nice surprise to find on Yelp. The parking is ample and shared in a plaza with apartments and other businesses.

Even though it was cold outside, the store was full. Almost every table inside was taken. The space itself was decently clean, although a bit cramped because of how crowded it was. Our group ended up sitting outside since a lot of the larger tables indoors were occupied by only one or two people. You can grab your own chairs by the bathroom if you have a big group.

I liked that menu was extensive. Besides shaved ice, they also had boba, tea, ice cream, and taiyaki. We waited maybe around 10 minutes for our order. We checked out a couple of games available near the front for customers to borrow.

We shared one large mango cheesecake shaved ice and one medium Biscoff shaved ice.

Mango cheesecake - This was AMAZING. My first bite tasted like heaven. The flavors worked together so well and the cheesecake wasn't overly sweet. The mangoes were ripe and sweet.

Biscoff shaved ice - I enjoy Biscoff in general, but this didn't compare to the mango cheesecake at all. It was too sweet and more icey/watery.

Chamomile tea drink -This paired nicely with the cold desserts. It was warm and refreshing at the same time. I almost never order nor see chamomile tea on menus so this was cool.

One note: there was a water station available, but the cups were SO small. Maybe 2-3 gulps of water per cup. I wish they were bigger.

Overall, I enjoyed coming here for dessert after our big dinne I think this is a nice addition to the Campbell.“

“I absolutely love this place! my go to is the Oreo milkshake with a chocolate/banana crepe on the side.. everyone is always so kind as soon as you walk through the door :) Would recommend this place to anyone who’s looking for a sweet delicious snack near Menlo Park. The best thing is that they have two locations!“

“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!“

“I placed an order for pickup and forgot about it. Got a notification from Crumbl to rate my experience lol. I was like what experience? Completely forgot. It was the next day like 3 or 4 in the afternoon so I went into the store and one of the employees remembered from the day before about somebody didn't come pick up there order. I was like yeah it was me. They made the process really quick and easy and then I was walking out the door with my order. Which was awesome. The cookies are great. Thank you.“

“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.“

“Amazing sandwiches and bread!!!!“

“Love the drive-thru! My favorite bc that’s special!“

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

“Family discovered MeloMelo in Cupertino by wandering around after visiting the Sanrio store close by. Place looked bright and clean and their display cases looked great. Line was decently big and there was a great buzz in the air. All good signs. We tried a couple of flavors and bought some more to share with family. Now we stop by every time we visit family in California.“

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

“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.“

“Wildberry Yogurt in Sharon Heights is the best yogurt spot in the Bay Area! Always lots of flavors and lots of yummy toppings to choose from. The fruit is always quite fresh too. The store is very clean and the staff is very friendly and gracious, very rare these days!“

“WE HAVE THE BEST FOOD AND SHAKES ON FREAKING PLANET EARTH AT OUR REXBURG LOCATION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! IT IS TOTALLY BOMB!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Best management ever best co workers ever and just point blank the best Iceberg location in the company!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I love working here!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I never dread coming to work!!!!!!!!!!! It is so much fun!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 10/10“

“I just love the ice cream ? it is so yummy ?. My favorite flavor is Very Berry Strawberry ?. I will be going back a lot because it's summer and now is the best time for ice cream. I would give them more than 5 stars ? if I could. The employees are so nice and friendly. I give you a thumbs-up ? Baskin Robbins great job.“

“My father and I came to this restaurant and were surprised by the wide variety of options from milkshakes, crepes, boba smoothies, slushies, and regular ice cream. The guy behind the counter was extremely friendly and recommended flavors. He was open to letting us try many ice creams. I got a birthday, cookie dough mixed milkshake. It was amazing. I recommend as a semi late night snack.“

“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.“

“Excellent food, excellent taste reasonable price“
