“If you want to be technical it wasn't terribly overpriced, but at its face $10.99 for a chocotaco is a bit of a shocker. Then figure in that everything is handmade on sight and it's quite a massive taco... Then not so bad. Taste was underwhelming, ice cream was dense.“

“I had the BEST experience at Cold Stone thanks to Jackie!

I ended up with the most delicious combo of strawberries, and it was heavenly. Jackie didn’t just serve ice cream; she served happiness in a cup (with extra sprinkles of kindness)!

You can tell she really takes pride in what she does, and it made my visit feel extra special. Cold Stone is lucky to have her, and I’ll definitely be back—partly for the ice cream, but mostly for Jackie’s incredible service!“

“Phenomenal taiyaki place that absolutely needs to be a chain across all of SoCal for easier access because omg it was so good! Some of the best red bean paste taiyaki I've ever had and delicious matcha ice cream! You can get so many different fillings for your taiyaki and ice cream. And their boba was 😋

Wheelchair accessibility: Plenty of handicap spaces and ramps to get up and down multilevel areas. Restaurant has plenty of space to navigate in a chair“

“Very nice yogurt! The store is a little dirty and could use some spot clean up (especially the sides of the drink fridge) but it's a quiet place and I like the froyo was properly frozen and not making a dripping mess like you see in Yogurtland. Pricing is very reasonable compared to what Yogurtland charges. Employees were really kind and they even sell figurines in the back too!“

“Dairy Queen is pretty solid when it comes to satisfying that ice cream craving, especially on a hot day. I love their light-tasting ice cream and the Blizzards are always delicious — my personal favorite is the Strawberry Cheesecake. It's got just the right balance of sweet and creamy with a nice chunky strawberry twist.

Before the change in ownership, they used to have a delicious Rocky Road Blizzard with a marshmallow center that I really miss. Unfortunately, they no longer carry it and won’t take special requests for it, which was a bit disappointing.

This location can get quite crowded during hot weather (understandably), so expect it to be a bit crowded. Because there is limited seating inside, I usually sit outside, which is a nice option. Parking is free, but it fills up quickly when it gets busy. I don’t mind parking a bit farther away, especially since the lot is a little tight when it's packed.

The staff are pretty cool and always do the Blizzard flip, which is a fun gimmick to see. They also offer an inexpensive cold dog treat if you ask, which is a bonus for dog owners. Also, they serve really good ice cream cakes, which are excellent. The last time I bought a cake, I wanted an image printed on it, but their machine was down. Luckily, they let me bring my own image, and they made it work — great customer service in that moment.

If you're in the mood for a cold, creamy treat, Dairy Queen definitely hits the spot!“

“My mom and I stopped by for a sweet treat and the workers here were lovely and patient. We chose to pick our ice cream from their signature creations and my mom went with the German chocolate cake while I picked the mud pie mojo. Both of our cups were packed to the brim with ice cream and after tasting both, I have to say the mud pie was my favorite since it was both creamy, sweet, and savory. The German chocolate cake is pretty good too but it fills like it’s missing something, not sure what.“
