Famous Oasis Ice Cream Parlor

Over price for ice cream we got 2 scoop for $7.00 and 2 scoop for $4.00. They only accept cash. They do have a variety of ice cream. That they dint have at ride aide. But over price.

Best ice cream in the country!!!
Brings me back to my childhood

I went today and got the mazapan ice cream. It was delicious, and tasted fresh! The staff was extremely attentive and happy to help. The store was clean and tidy. I will make this a repeat spot when I travel to San Diego! I highly recommend Oasis.

I ordered a rocky road ice cream cone, the flavor was lacking and bland. The ice cream itself looked a pale brown color, that should’ve been a give away. Needs a lot more cacao, I ended up throwing away the cone. An icecream cone with one scoop is 6 bucks, not worth the money or the carbs. I don’t recommend.

I've lived all over the world and have had ice cream and gelato everywhere. This is hands down the best ice cream I've ever had. The smoothest, creamiest, most flavorful ice cream. Family owned and the customer service was top tier. Tried like 5 flavors because I had friends and they were all 11/10 top tier.

I've been coming to Oasis since I was a little kid and have so many good memories here, like the time Mr. Lee treated all the band kids to ice cream, or the extra sample the owner would scoop on top of your cone. I will always remember the first time I tried the arroz con leche (rice pudding) flavor: those chunks of rice and the little pieces of cinnamon bark that add that sweet zing!

Other epic flavors: coconut paleta, banana, coffee, walnut, pepino con chile paleta, watermelon...

*NEW*! Mini bars for $1, the new Halloween "Trick-or-Treat" (chocolate ice cream with chunks of KitKat, Reese's, and peanut butter M&Ms), and a paleta cart you can rent for a party!

My wife and I recently visited Oasis Ice Cream Parlor, hoping to relive the great experiences we had years ago, but unfortunately, we left disappointed.

First off, the customer service was lacking. The staff didn’t seem very welcoming or attentive, which really put a damper on the visit. The quality of the ice cream wasn’t what I remembered either — it tasted a bit off, as if the ingredients weren’t as fresh, and it lacked the rich flavor that used to set them apart. To top it off, the prices have gotten quite expensive, which doesn’t match the level of service, quantity or quality we received.

Sadly, I won’t be returning. It’s a shame to see a place that used to be so enjoyable take a downturn.

Very very nice people, went last year and forgot to post a review, but I kept thinking about the ice cream enough to review it! One of the best ice creams I've had by far!

This is most definitely the best ice cream place in San Diego. The ice cream is delicious. Many great flavors to pick from too. My favorite is Banana. The owner Lupita is a sweetheart! You have to try this place - you won't be disappointed. Prices are very affordable as well.

Great local ice cream shop. The bars are out of this world.

By far the best ice cream parlor in the region, and in my opinion the best Mexican style fruit bars in the world.
