I will definitely continue ordering cakes here in the future“

“This Taiyaki + Ice Cream place is at the level of other giants such as SomiSomi. The soft serve has a perfect texture (I tried the Pure Milk flavor with a Taiyaki on top, the Taiyaki being filled with Nutella), the service is quick and efficient, and the store was crowded when my two friends and I went on a Saturday evening. The ambiance is great too, there are so many pictures showing what the options are like, and there are clearly-illustrated menus spread throughout the restaurant. The toppings are available for the customers to grab and add to their ice cream as they wish, and everything, from the Oreo crumbs to the Banana chips are great. You can truly feel that every single item in this store is, indeed, made With Love.“

“tasty and fun, you need to go... Soon!“

“Delicious ice cream, with top quality ingredients! Sizes are bigger than other nearby shops and it even includes toppings!“

“I am not sure why 626 Ice Cream has such bad reviews.

I had heard lots about this place, but due to them mostly being open on weekday nights, didn't have a chance to try them until yesterday afternoon.

I enjoyed the calming ambiance. Everything seemed randomly arranged, however it went well with the area.

The ice cream served here is very delicious and creamy, so if you like that type of style, you're better off coming here. I got the condensed milk and black sesame flavors with sprinkles, Gummy bears and mochi. Their mochi bin was nearly empty, and I discovered why when I ate my dessert. I mean, the other two toppings were also tasty and I'm glad I didn't do just mochi, but mochi had to be the best out of the three toppings I had.

Would come back if I were in the area!“

“Staff are awesome!! Yogurt is very yummy!“

“absolutely love this place. we come all the way out from West Los Angeles just to get our ice cream fix. thank you guys and I wish you guys eternal success!“

“Ice Cream is always so good here. Prompt service, very nice employees. Their waffle bowl could be a little more flavorful but that’s a personal preference. Got their hot fudge sundae waffle bowl with banana cream pie and vanilla ice creams and ate every bit. Definitely recommend a stop here“

“Best handmade ice cream ever!!!! Love the Taro and Ferrero Roche ice cream“

“This place is a must stop if you are within an hour’s drive. Fire Bunny is sweet milk drink with creme brûlée topping. And Thai iced tea soft serve served with fresh hot boba?! Yes please!“

“Delicious!!! Sweet treat that hits the spot - not too sweet, refreshing, and overall very yummi. Our fam got La Toxica, Horchaty, and a drill your own with froyo + banana + strawberry (granola topping). Their pink truck is located at the corner of York & 51st.“

“I’ve had ice cream/gelato/granita/dondurma and a pile of other frozen desserts on 6 continents. This is my absolute favorite on the planet. While I never order strawberry anywhere else, here it is so full of fresh strawberry flavor that I never pass it up (and this flavor is dairy-free, you’d never know!). All the flavors are fresh and delicious but my favorites are the strawberry, banana sundae, Dubai chocolate and ashta.“

“Best matcha in LA. They do one thing and one thing incredibly well… MATCHA. The drinks, soft serve are top notch. I wish they had more locations but always worth the trip to buy matcha to take home or a drink to enjoy while walking little tokyo“

“This ice cream shop is a pop-up (probably permanent pop-up) in The Shops at Santa Anita. I loved the free sample they offered! The server is so generous in offering the samples. The croffle is the best we’ve had for a long time, warm and so yummy. I especially enjoyed the matcha and hojicha, both made with ceremonial-grade tea. The ice cream did not disappoint me either. Totally recommend for sugar craves!“

“Sweet girl working the booth and providing excellent service. The soft serve here is absolutely delicious and always hits the spot, and the prices are very reasonable. Parking can be a bit of a hassle, but the tasty treats make it worth it!“

“Wanna get some yummy ice cream after you’ve had a burger at Amboy? There’s a variety of unique flavors at Scoops, in which I got a red velvet & oreo + vanilla & m&m shake. Probably would recommend having ice cream rather than milkshake because I think you can savor it better. The flavor was sweet and creamy, but in hindsight, I would have chosen just one flavor for the shake.“

“The bolo bao ice cream sandwich was the bomb! I had it with ube ice cream. The garlic fries - lots of fresh garlic with a side of bomb lemon aoili and house sauce! The best! Passionfruit green tea was perfect for the hot weather! So cute inside too! It's a smaller space and a one man show. Everything is made fresh so please be patient - it's worth the wait! Great service! It's a hidden gem to the right of BofA in the plaza. — at CrispyandFluffed.“

“I had a banana split with 3 different flavors of ice cream it was so yummy fresh ice cream I live in west Covina I'd drive to fosselmans just to have an ice cream“

“Went here after going to Descano to see the tulips. Ice cream is different. Everything is Original. You won’t fine their flavors anywhere else. Nightly recommend going if your in the Pasadena area.“

“Home made Tacos home made ice cream. What else can a growing boy ask for? Lol“

“First time coming to this place and let me say that whoever thought of putting an ice cream shop next to a pizzeria is a genius! Anyways I tried the Chocolate Gooey Brownie and the Salted, Malted Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough. Out of the 2 I would get the Salted,Malted Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough again. The Chocolate Gooey Brownie is very choclatey and a bit boring. Salted, Malted is the way to go along with a waffle cone. Prices are reasonable, portions are fine, good ice cream but I probably would pick other spots just because of their variety. Overall I would definitely recommend this place and would come back.“

“Sus nieves rikisimas los tostilocos para chuparse los dedos se las recomiendo!“

“I went in on Tuesday, the new owners were in back of me. I was telling the cashier how disappointed my daughter was, we came in on monday and it was closed. Well the new owners, gave me a couple cookies for free. That was so awesome of them. My daughter was so happy and she said" Thank you so much!"“

“Best handmade ice cream ever!!!! Love the Taro and Ferrero Roche ice cream“

“What a great ice cream shop. They have the most creative flavours that taste great. The service was fantastic from the man working there and you can even have free samples to ensure you like your flavour before committing to a flavour. We had the miso caramel toffee ice cream which was smooth and of great quality. Prices are very reasonable too! Amazing ice cream shop!“

“My favorite is the cherry ice cream (beso de angel). But they don't just sell ice cream. They serve fresh drinks, the Maracuyá (passion fruit) is super delicious…!!! They also have delicious sandwiches, many Mexican snacks and above all excellent service!! 100%recommended..!!!“

“I'm in love with the chocolate chip cookies here they are so delicious I can't explain the level. lol the ice cream is amazing! especially the cookie monster! heavenly delight!“

“Hello Gelato stands out among the many frozen sweet shops in Old Town Pasadena. The flavors taste exactly like they're supposed to, rich and delicious. The texture is dense and smooth. I like chocolate and mint chip, and my husband swears by the stracciatelli. Bonus: you'll often meet the owner himself scooping behind the counter. A great little local business!“

“It's one of my favorite locations of Afters. This place has nice decor outside. It's all outdoor seating. You walk up to the window and there's a person there to take your order. This location only takes credit card and tap (Apple/ Google pay). No cash.

There are a lot of good flavors, but I prefer the Ube brownie. I have yet to try their sweet bun. I like the waffle cone, but just like any waffle cone, they're messy to eat because they leak at the bottom. I'm not sure if they charge, but I saw a few people ask for an additional cup with their regular cake cone.

When we arrived there wasn't a line, but there was after we ordered. Lol. Thank goodness we got there before the wave of people came. Lots of parking around the place also.“

“These cookies are to die for every time. So delicious !!!🤤“

“Fosters Freeze’s, Large soft serve,Vanilla ice cream cones, dipped in chocolate syrup, are good and messy. They made me a triple cheeseburger back in the early 70’s way before Burger King or In-n- out ever had them.“

“One of the best ice cream spots in LA! They have so many options and the best part is so all are inspired by different countries. The staff is also very friendly and accommodating. I tried a range of different flavors but went black sesame cookies and cream, olive oil salted date, and Japanese Neapolitan. Would definitely recommend visiting and definitely coming back!“

“authentic real ice cream, made in house and love the unique flavors 😋“

“The best ❣️ Their vegan flavors are great“

“Old-school fast-food chain famous for soft serve. Their “chocolate dipped” cone still tastes nostalgic. I got the cheeseburger and fries; patties were thin but seasoned, fries crispy. Classic shake is thick and rich. Place felt like stepping back to the ‘60s—a simple joy.“

“Best Frozen Yogurt Ever Tasted“

“Pistachio ice cream is one of the best I've had. It has the right amount of cream to nut ratio. The flan is also one of the best I've had because it has a thicker consistency. Every other flan has a more watery texture, whereas this one is more dense and high quality.“

“Absolutely amazing ice cream 🍨“

“Just not ice cream. They actually have a lot of snacks from japan. Don't let the metal fencing out front discourage you. Keep in mind you are going to a warehouse so there are no thrills or frills. They allow you to buy in bulk so if you are having a party this is the spot.“

“Unique and flavorful selections of pies and sortserve.“

“Italian ice was colorful and refreshing with just the right amount of soft serve to ice ratio. Just when I was running out of soft serve I found more at the bottom lolSundae was perfect amount of chocolate and whipped cream. Banana milkshake has fresh bananas combined with thick, creamy ice cream. Overall, a delight!“

“Great service! Always have a great experience here with my kids!“

“Tried their honey affogato and it was pretty good! even though it had honey it wasn’t too overly sweet so that was great, the coffee wasn’t bitter either so i would definitely recommend it, the place has tables to sit around and it’s pretty comfortable and the staff is very sweet, it also has a photobooth if you are looking for one in the little tokyo area, the only downside like every other place in little tokyo is the bathroom situation!“

“If I'm feeling I'll drop by for a cone and that it. Order outside through the window. They have seats but outside on the side. Is a regular ice cream shop they do offer other food items but haven't tried that yet. Fairly priced, although the ice cream is not fully dairy it seems. Because it melts really quickly and it tastes more water based than anything. Aside from that, the taste is there.

Parking: They do have parking in the back. There's also plenty on the street not metered.“

“Love their ice cream, aguas frescas and especially their crepes 😋😋😋😋“

“Oakobing is a must-try for dessert lovers! After seeing rave reviews across social media, we decided to check it out on a weeknight. It was quiet since we visited late, but that gave us the perfect chance to enjoy our dessert without the usual crowds. We ordered the green tea shaved ice with tiny mochis, and it was delicious. The texture reminded us of Taiwan night market treats, although this is a Korean dessert spot. The shaved ice was delicate and fluffy, offering a light, refreshing sweetness.

The place itself is small but has a bright, modern vibe, and the service was quick and friendly. There’s paid parking available on the side, which is convenient enough. Oakobing specializes in Korean-style shaved ice (bingsoo) with many flavors and milkshake options to choose from. The portions are just right for sharing, making it the perfect spot for a sweet indulgence with friends. If you’re looking for a unique dessert experience, Oakobing won’t disappoint!“

“Love their sandwiches! Delicious!!“

“This place has always had a special place in my heart. My mom would bring me here as a kid over 30 years ago whenever we would go to the office down the street. I was in the area with my son whose 9. We came and sat down to eat some ice cream. To this day I still order the chicle flavor, its alaways tasted amazing. We sat where I would sit as a kid and it brought back so many memories of being with my mom. The staff was still as friendly as ever. Highly recommend this place.“

“I had a (vegan) chocolate sorbet that was the best vegan dessert I’ve ever had. You don’t know it’s vegan. It holds up as a fabulous chocolate dessert even if it wasn’t vegan. It’s like rich dark chocolate mousse that’s almost frozen….smooth but slightly “icy”.“

“Loved this place while living in Monrovia. Please look into placing one in Palmdale/Lancaster area❤️🥰❤️“
