14 Best Ice Cream Shops in Santa Clara

“Friendly service, good yogurt. Many toppings to to choose from. One of the rare frozen yogurt places that have the toppings always fresh and not stale. Excellent. 10/10“

“It’s my first time bringing my kids to Valley Fair for shopping today, I discovered this ice cream shop is such a hidden gem!My son’s eyes lit up after the first bite , saying “this ice cream is amazing” I tried it too, really good!It’s become a must visit spot for us.“

“Tasty Italian gelato 🍧 ice cream, not too sweet; just right!“

“It tasted like their ice cream is crafted on site. They were busy so I didn't ask. They do build the ice cream taco in front of you and then drop it in liquid nitrogen.

I am cheap so 7 bucks for my double flavor taco dipped in dark chocolate was a bit expensive, but it was a nice treat and fun to watch. It wasn't expensive really for what you get, I am just a cheapo. Lol“

“Happiness in a cup. And a cone 😁“

“I’ve been coming here for almost 30 years, hands down the best yogurt in Santa Clara county, the staff is usually friendly, except one guy. The biggest downfall is that we should be able to try a couple flavors to see what we like and don’t like before purchasing, I have purchased a couple times where I ended up throwing away my $9 yogurt because it didn’t taste right to me, had I been able to sample first I would’ve known not to purchase that flavor. Please allow samples again…..at least give a limit of 2 free ones, you’re not losing money by allowing a small sample Thanks for the Carbolite options they are a life saver on my healthy lifestyle goals“

“Came here on a weekend with friends and really enjoyed it. Sulbing does authentic Korean snow ice with super fine, milky ice that melts in your mouth—sweet but not heavy. Works great as dessert any time of year.

Green Tea Chocolate Sulbing was a highlight. The matcha is more bitter and fragrant (not overly sweet), paired with chocolate cake and milk ice—very balanced and easy to keep eating.
Strawberry Yogurt Chocoballs Sulbing was refreshing, with a nice sweet-tart yogurt flavor and crunchy chocolate balls for texture.
Dubai Nougat Crunch Ball was a fun surprise—crispy chocolate shell with pistachio cream and crunchy bits inside. Sweetness was well balanced with the snow ice.

We also tried some toasts. Mozzarella Injeolmi Toast is a must when hot—nutty soybean powder, chewy mochi inside, and stretchy mozzarella. Sweet and savory combo works really well. Honey Butter Bread was simple but comforting, best eaten warm.

Overall, great place to share a few shaved ice and toasts with friends. If you like light, fluffy snow ice, Sulbing is a solid choice.“

“ice cream forever! especially when the temperatures hit the 90s!“

“A must stop every time I’m in Honolulu/Waikiki now. I love there chewy texture and the lilikoi is to die for!!“

“Delicious ice cream and recommend the matcha/ strawberry 🍓 yummy 😋“

“The young ladies there are so very helpful! They are kind enough to heat up my bread and they seem happy to be there.“

“Prepare for a longer than expected wait time since the drinks and parfait require longer prep time. We stopped by on a Thurs 3pm and there were 2 staff working. We ordered 2 gelatos in a cup. Since there were a few orders ahead of us. It was a 20min wait. At least the order estimate was relatively accurate.

Matcha gelato:
Tried #4 and #5. I like #4 for gelato. I think I'd get #5 in a float since it can get pretty tea saturated. The matcha is a classic flavor without being overly grassy. The texture is smooth and creamy.

We also got Hokkaido milk and the Osmanthus fermented rice. The Hokkaido is rich and sweet. The osmanthus is fragrant and has a light fermented sweetness. It worked really well with #5 matcha.“

“Good quick stop for long day at mall.“
