Slow service. Was told 35 minute wait for rolled ice cream and 5 minutes for Taiyaki. Ordered at 6:48 pm and didn’t get my first ice cream until 7:18pm. Last ice cream received at 7:28pm. Good ice cream but not worth thr

The rolled ice cream was great. Could have used a bit more Reese’s mixed in. Would definitely return if I am in the area

This place was so cute!! I absolutely loved the different types of ice cream! My husband got the soft serve and I did the ice cream rolls!! The nutella on it was perfect! So yummy can’t wait to come back.

Customer service is horrible. So rude. It takes 15 minutes to make 3 rolled ice creams. Go to the geletaria up the road. It's way better

TAKES SO LONG. There’s always a long line but I went when there was about 5 people in the store and it still took over 20 minutes for my ice cream.

There are plenty of vegan options here if you're dairy free like I am or actually vegan. The vegan bases include almond, oat, and coconut. I ordered the almond base (vegan) rolled ice cream with Oreos. It also came with non dairy whipped topping. The ice cream was good overall, but I do feel like the almond base lacked a little bit of flavor compared to other non dairy ice creams I've had. My girlfriend had regular rolled ice cream, and she enjoyed it.Dietary restrictions: Vegan based ice cream (almond, oat, and coconut) is available!

When you go there 2 days in a row and you look forward to the 3rd time, that's a clue. Try the closed taiyaki with traditional anko/red beans.Kid-friendliness: Ice cream anyone?

Visited this place after burning my tongue at Angry Chickz really hit the spot and definitely visiting again when I'm in town.

Yay, finally tried the fish cone! Green tea matcha and vanilla soft serve, plus red bean filling, was probably the best thing I could've ordered to fully enjoy this place. It hit the spot for me! I grew up eating red bean paste in pastries and ice cream so to have it in North County brings a smile to my face. I was a little confused with the menu - vegan options are only for rolled ice cream, but not soft serve. The filling is inside the fish cone. I really don't see how eating ice cream in the fish cone by itself is manageable, so their recommended bowl seems to be the only way to go, but good luck if you try the cone solo. The cone is like a waffle cone. They also sell taiyaki with filling by itself - they call it "closed" taiyaki.Our ice cream came out after rolled ice cream orders, whom ordered after us, and it seemed to be that the soft serve was not thick enough for serving yet. We got there around noon. We were patient and thanked for waiting the long wait. I enjoyed it and will come again.There's seating inside.

Craving ice cream while walking around in Oceanside downtown? There are three primary options Fugu, ColdStone, and Handle's. Fugu is more conveniently located and has more Asian flavored/style ice cream. Handles and ColdStone are more traditional American flavors.The cones are fish shaped and made fresh. More like waffles. Definitely recommend trying if you like nice light texture ice cream.

To preface, i work as a server at a local restaurant so I have patience when it comes to any food establishment I go to. When I went in there yesterday with my friends to get ice cream, I was the first person to order out of all my friends and after all my friends neared the end of finishing their food, I decided to go back up to the cash register to ask about my order. The lady who wears clear frames with a pony tail decided to give me the worst treatment i've ever seen. I kindly ask about my order and in the most mocking voice ever asked how long has it been and did I have a receipt to prove I paid for something. I stated she didn't give me one and said she said I can't do anything about it. I use toast at my restaurant so I pressed on this manner knowing very well she could find my order easily. I was given my refund in cash but did give them a 20% tip on that order so basically I was still short on my refund. I paid to be insulted.

Cones are always made fresh and they have an array of different unique flavors you can't find just anywhere..very creative.
