    “Rocko’s Ice Cream offers very high-quality, flavorful ice cream in a nice and welcoming environment. Their taco ice cream is especially unique, creative, and fun to try. The only downside was the service and preparation time, which felt somewhat slow even though there were not many customers. Overall, it is a great place for delicious and creative desserts, but the service could be more efficient.”

They have some of the most unique and weird flavor combinations you’ll ever see, but somehow every single one tastes absolutely incredible. ​The Pear & Blue Cheese is spectacular, and the Chocolate Gooey Brownie is pure perfection. If you're on the fence about trying their wilder flavors, just go for it—they nail the balance every time. Easily one of the best ice cream spots around!”

    “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”

    “Bar None; World’s Greatest! Authentic and true to the art of artisanal gelato! Patrizia Pasqualetti is a master chef! It’s been a real treat to taste generations of knowledge passed down without compromise to the quality of the product. I love the tiramisu, amarena, and bacio as well as the pistachio and fior di latte! To be honest I would say all flavors are delicious! For the sorbetti, unbelievably genuine flavor — it’s evident that NO artificial syrups or fake ingredients are used. Love Love Love!!!”

    “The Korean shaved ice dessert we ordered was a delightful treat. It came generously topped with rich, creamy ice cream and allowed us to choose from an assortment of toppings that made it even more enjoyable. The portion size was impressively large, easily big enough for the three of us to share comfortably, and it felt like a fun and satisfying treat to enjoy together. While we waited about ten minutes before it was ready, the time passed quickly, and the clean and well-maintained restrooms added to the positive experience. Overall, it made for a pleasant and memorable visit.”

    “Love Matsu Matcha! Without a doubt, they have the best mango matcha in the area 🥭🍵 I’ve tried quite a few of their flavors, including strawberry, banana, cookie butter, pistachio, and of course mango and mango is my absolute favorite! They have a great selection of matcha drinks, plus matcha ice cream with different matcha intensity levels and delicious parfaits. The only reason I’m giving them 4 stars instead of 5 is that they often run out of mango. I find myself having to check every time before going to make sure it’s available that day. If mango matcha is your favorite too, you know how disappointing that can be! 😭 Otherwise, I absolutely love this place. 💚”
