“After school my little one craved some shaved ice. I wasn't sure where to go but I came across this spot while searching and we decided to give it a go. I'm glad we did it was delicious. I got the raspberry lychee shaved ice and it was perfect. My boyfriend tried his with condensed milk and enjoyed it, I tried and it made it take more like an ice cream. Not bad! The staff was friendly and welcoming. The vibe definitely gives that Hawaii vibe and there is some seating available inside too. We will be back.“

Belgian Crepe

“The workers were generous with the ice cream samples. I tried the Super Black Chocolate and regular Chocolate, both were smooth and tasty. My sister tried the pistachio gelato, she said it was good but it felt like there was a sour after taste to it.I ordered the strawberry banana nutella crepe and added an extra scoop of chocolate gelato which is delicious. The crepe batter might have been a little bit thick so the crepe wasn't as light as some of the Japanese crepes places I've been to, but overall it was good, with plenty of bananas and strawberries. I will come back again when I crave some gelato.We wanted to try the waffle bites but they crossed it out from the menu. Not sure if they'll bring it back again.The location is right near the children's play area in the mall so there were a lot of screaming kids while we sat down to eat, so I'd recommend finding a spot a bit further away if you get crepes/waffles or just to-go it.“

“I have been going to this location for years and it's always a good experience. Whenever I visit the store it is so clean! The workers take great care of cleaning the yogurt machines and the topping bar. Fruits are very fresh. I see the workers replacing the banana if it starts turning brown or any other fruits if it does not look fresh. The yogurt is always so consistent and never watery. My go-to flavors are plain tart and pistachio! Can never go wrong with plain tart, it's so refreshing eating on a hot sunny day!“

Cookies

“Crumbl is all the hype. The iconic pink boxes filled with cookies about the size of your face and weighs a pound. I will give it to the marketing and advertisement aspect. They are always on top of the new flavors every week and customizing it to the unthinkable. Cookies are always tasty and flavorful it could be at times be on the sweeter side, so you can definitely split this up into acouple of meals. I prefer the chilled versions and I've never found any to be dried out. I recommend signing up for their rewards program/app to get up to date on the new flavors. Prices are on the higher side but you at paying for the quality and the specialty item. Wish they offered more promotions or deals. And also wishes they brought back in rotation flavors that are super popular and fan favorites.“

The person that helped us didn't speak English much, but we were able to point out our orders. We ordered vanilla and chocolate ice cream with sprinkles, elote corn, and hot Cheetos with cheese. So good, but not so good for you.“

BASKIN-ROBBINS Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt • $$
779 Story RdSuite 55, San Jose

“Honestly, this is probably one of my favorite Baskin Robbins locations!!! Shout out to my Little for recommending and raving about this particular BR!! Without her, I wouldn't have knows about all the greatness awaiting inside...While other BR locations are lacking in freshness, quality, and good customer service, this BR is shining above the rest!! Our large group stopped by since we were already have dinner at a neighboring business. The ice cream shop was small in size but it was also jam packed with customers making it a little tough to maneuver. While the scene was a little chaotic, the many employees were providing prompt and courteous customer service to each and every patron. Our purchases:Single Scoop [in cup]- Mint Chocolate ChipSingle Scoop [in cup]- VanillaSingle Scoop [in cone]- Chocolate Chip Cookie DoughSmall Cappuccino Blast [extra cinnamon] Everything tasted great and totally hit the spot on a hot scorching day. My only complaints: 1) was not getting the extra cinnamon topping on my cappuccino blast. Lmao. Disappointed yes, but I totally survived. Lmao. 2) it was really humid and hot in the shop. On a day where the temps were in the high 70s, it felt cooler outside! 5/5 stars overall. After having more than a few bad run-ins with the lack of freshness pertaining to BR's cakes [@ other locations], lack of cleanliness, & some really bad service, I was ready to boycott the company completely!! Thank you BR Story Rd location for giving me a glimmer of hope, I'll be coming here for all of my celebratory|birthday cake needs!!“

Personally, I think it's better than La Michoacana, which is located right down the block. I've been here many times since moving, and definitely always hits the spot! Today I decided on tostilocos, with no cueritos ( pickled pork rinds) and they gave me the option to add more fruit, which I did. I added mango, cucumber, and jicama! Very tasty, prices definitely went up but what didn't in this economy!“

Snow Boba Bubble Tea • $$
6029 Snell Ave, San Jose

“I am a big fan of the milk tea and honey boba here. The tea is delicious and the boba is a perfect marriage of soft and chewy. It's so addicting. When you enter the shop, you're automatically greeted by a bright warm smile by Cindy, the owner. Recently I had the pleasure of chatting with her. She shared her deep passion to bring high quality tea and boba to her customers and to set Snow Boba aside from the competition. She develops all the wonderful drink combinations in-house and is constantly brewing up new concoctions. She makes her own boba from scratch too. When you look at the business, it is not only a woman-owned but it's also a family affair. Cindy carefully sources her the tea leaves from her family's tea farm in VietNam. She is meticulous and thoughtful in the entire process and all the positive reviews are a reflection of these efforts. I keep coming back again and again...“

“One of the best places to get ice cream. The unique flavors and natural colors and natural ingredients mixed in the ice cream takes the experience up a notch. My friend and I got two completely different scoops of ice cream each and enjoyed them till the last bite. While my friend chose chocolate cone I got mine in a regular one and I can't tell you enough about the deliciousness of it. I realized though the cone was thinner than what's offered at other places or made with different ingredients which broke a bit too early but maybe that's why it was super tasty. The ice cream parlor is more of a grab and go type of place and doesn't offer seats, but since it is located in a shopping center we decided to walk around while enjoying the ice cream.“
