“Wonderful family owned business that supports the arts in our community. xoxo“

“Friendly and very patient staff (there are so many flavors to choose from, it takes a moment) and the ice cream is of superb quality. My favorite flavors are The Tonight Dough and Milk and Cookies. I wish there were more places to sit, however.“

“Hands down the best cookie butter ice cream I have ever had. The Cookie Monster flavor is this bright blue colored ice cream that tastes like how Cookie Monster looks. It’s rich ice cream with chunks of cookies! I’m posting this after visiting a multiple times and each time the ice cream has been fresh and leaves us licking our cups clean!“

“Seaport, Boston location. Staff MADE SURE I was picking the flavor that I really wanted. They wanted me to feel like a welcome tourist. Mission Accomplished.“

“The flavors are amazing!!!!! Pandan coconut waffle (vegan), mango sticky rice (vegan) and ube milk crunch. Sooooo delicious“

“These people are incredible and the Gelato is better than 99% of the Gelato I had in Italy. They opened during Covid and SURVIVED if that tells you anything. Both of them are wonderful humans and the Gelato is extraordinary. Plus they saved dogs from food markets overseas. Doesn't get much better. Please check them out.“

“Ending our dinner at Sugarfish, the host recommended we try Van Leeuwen Ice Cream..and wow, I’m so glad we did. I got the Earl Grey and Sugar Cookie Dough, and it was absolutely delicious. The small cup was the perfect amount to end the evening.

The cashier was incredibly kind and let us sample several flavors until we found the ones we loved, which made the experience even better. Everything was so yummy 😋

Highly recommend if you’re near one of their locations..and bonus, they have vegan options too!“

“From the little I stole from my boyfriend, the ice cream was very delicious. The soft serve ice cream was smooth, creamy, and sweet. The taiyaki was light, crispy, warm and it was very nice. Maybe next time I'll order my own just for me.“

“Pink rose ice cream for the win!!!“

“The cookies and cream ice cream is so good! They also give you a generous portion. The ice cream doesn’t melt easily even when we were eating outside in a hot weather. I have to mention they have a lot of vegan options too! And lastly, the staff is really nice which makes the overall experience really great. 😊“

“This has got to be one of the tastiest Ice Cream places in town!
Homemade tastes with multiple flavors in cups, cones and waffle cups and cones.

“Unique and flavorful selections of pies and sortserve.“

“Fell in love with each and every bite of my crêpe. NomZ 😋“

“Employee was incredibly kind and helpful! It is evident she loves her job in how she speaks with her customers and makes sure all needs are met! Even the people who can in after us were helped down to a very specific need of theirs! THE FRUIT IS SO FRESH AND THE PALETAS ARE INCREDIBLY TASTY, tasting exactly as their names insist!“

“The chocolate cookies & cream was my favorite though could have been better w more cookies and fresher, crunchier cookies; the hojicha was better than expected; and the gaviota strawberry tasted of real, sweet strawberry. Updated from previous review on 2025-10-02“

“Avocado ice cream is ducking amazing! And all the ice cream is amazing!“

“Honestly, I was skeptical looking at the menu choice. I decided to step out of my comfort zone and experiment. I played it safe, but was still highly impressed. I tried the honey lavender and coffee and love nuts, it was phenomenal highly recommend please try do not judge. The irony is the honey and lavender has notes of some tea flavor that I could not put my finger on, but it paired well with the coffee.“

“Beyond amazing. Patient and kind staff as well. It’s hard to eat regular ice cream (even if it’s vegan) after tasting how incredible fruit ice cream is here bc it’s a MUCH healthier option. It’s incredibly rich and flavorful and super filling. The chocolate was decadent! Pistachio , divine! And PB…delectable. Enjoy!“

“My kids and I came out on vacation four years ago and found Leeuwen in West Hollywood. We ended up going for dessert every evening, so on our return trip recently we had to stop in

Glad to see that customer service has remained exceptional and the ice cream delicious !“

“delicious. adorable highly recommend“

“I am usually not the type to write a review, but the service that Sebastian provided was top tier. Sebastian allowed us to sample some products and provided some creative suggestions when it came to combination like a peanut butter and jelly like option when it came to gelato. He was extremely patient with me as I made chose a flavor or gelato to take home and even promoted the points system when imputing our phone number before purchasing it. His service alone is 5 stars alone and the products that were sold were extremely delicious as well, I am looking forward to trying more flavors and running into him again for more suggestions he comes across of.“

“Seaport, Boston location. Staff MADE SURE I was picking the flavor that I really wanted. They wanted me to feel like a welcome tourist. Mission Accomplished.“

“Shout-out to the team at Salt & Straw.

I’m usually a creature of habit here. I know what I’m getting before I even arrive. I’ll sample the seasonal and the oddball flavors for fun, but nine times out of ten, I end up right where the tourists do. Honey Lavender on a sugar cone. Locked in. No notes.

This visit, I was sampling as usual when a team member offered me a flavor and thoughtfully let me know it contained trace amounts of alcohol. I appreciated the heads-up. I took the sample, said “thank you, that’s fine,” then jokingly added that I was only 92 days sober and chuckled. The look on her face was of nervousness. I immediately told her it was a joke, and she carried on with assisting me.

In hindsight, I felt a little bad for putting her in that moment, but what stood out was how professionally and kindly she handled it. She stayed composed, respectful, and warm the entire time.

That kind of response says a lot, not just about her, but about the team culture at this location.

Sampling here always feels welcoming, never rushed, never awkward, even when customers deliberately make things… momentarily awkward.

Consistent quality, great energy, and a team that clearly knows how to handle people with care. Much appreciated 🍦👑“

“great place for ice cream“

“Artisanal ice cream. Very good.“

“We went to Bacio di Latte in Brentwood and honestly, we won’t be going anywhere else. Mario, Denise, and Rosa were absolutely amazing — so warm, welcoming, and kind. They made us feel right at home and truly turned our visit into such a special night. Their energy and hospitality stood out just as much as the gelato.“

“I came here to say, I have never heard of this brand before but last night while shopping at my local Jay C (kroger), I stumbled across the Gluten free Gooey Butter cake ice cream and i’m so very glad I did!!! it’s delicious!!!! It’s not often us Gf people get to have cake and I actually don’t care for ice cream. I rarely eat it but that has all changed thanks to Jeni’s. I love it so much I might have ate half of it in one sitting….we listen and we don’t judge 😝. A+++++++++. Please don’t stop making this!“

“The Pricing of the is much lower than most places, you get the toppings for free with no cost extra. You get a lot of ice cream for $13 which you get 12oz for that much. Good choices of exterior to look a bit fancy at cheap for what it looks like“

“My recommendation is to come here if you're looking to stock up on goodies for a party, especially during the summer. Things like Piñatas, Ice Cream, Block of Ice (for shaved ice and candy. For things like cups, straws, plates you could find better deals at other big stores. It's more about what you won't find in those places that you can find at Northridge Ice Cream.

During my visit I picked up a big block of ice for $10, big piñata for 20 and some candy.

Overall, this place serves local vendors with ice cream, snacks and anything in between. I visited this place out of curiosity, but ended up leaving with bags of imported candy. A good half of it you can find in big supermarkets like Vallarta, but not all. The variety is good and organization methods. The folks there were very friendly and helpful. It felt like they were happy to have visitors in, but maybe you're just a happy person if you sell ice cream all day.“

“Milk and Sugar Time is such a gem in LA! The drinks are perfectly balanced, never too sweet, and the boba is always fresh and chewy. The shop has a cozy vibe, and the staff are super friendly and quick. Definitely my new go-to spot for a pick-me-up!“

“This place is always a go to for rolled ice cream in the valley. The portions are easily shareable between two people and extra toppings in the mix are only $0.50 cents. They have good flavors to choose from and the place seems to now be family owned and the staff always greets us when we walk in and are attentive to our requests. They have hooked us up here and there with toppings and even water. We will definitely keep coming back to Bango!“

“In the heart ♥️ of the beautiful downtown of Culver City Salt & Straw Is there waiting for you to go and taste they’re vegan ice cream 🍦 with fresh waffle cones 😋yummy . The place is nice,clean ,friendly staff and you get one hour free parking“

“One of my favourite gelato store in LA, I came back a lot of times and it’s been my 10th time or so back here, I love their rich gelato taste and would definitely recommend you to go visit here, they have a wide range of flavors you can choose, for example you have 14 types of chocolate gelato you can choose, so you can have a bit more fun choosing what you want, really recommend it! The people working there are also very nice and friendly and they provide tables and chairs for you to sit inside or outside.“

“obsessed with the Earl grey ice cream!!“

“Delicious and creamy gelato. I got the dark chocolate and pistachio scoops on a pistachio filled waffle bowl. The gelato wasn't too sweet and the staff let us try a lot of different flavors. I really liked the hazelnut flavor too. Hit the spot after a ramen dinner.“

“I went to Sweet Rose Ice Cream expecting a normal day, and instead I experienced emotional turbulence in a waffle cone. I ordered the dairy-free chocolate, and WHY was it so good??? It wasn’t sweet at all—just pure, dark, sophisticated chocolate energy, like it pays taxes early and hydrates regularly.
I took one bite and immediately forgot every bad decision I’ve ever made. The waffle cone was so crispy it practically screamed at me when I bit into it. Honestly, it crunch-punched me back into reality.
As someone who avoids overly sweet desserts, this ice cream felt like it understood me on a spiritual level. 12/10. Would absolutely return, probably running, possibly yelling.
🍦🔥😵‍💫✨“

“I was introduced to La Michoacana about a year ago and I’ve been going back ever since. I’m always greeted with a smile and the selection is amazing. My favorite is the Mangoneada. This place always has parking, is clean and there’s always a table to sit and enjoy.“

“I grew up going to the original handels in Ohio. It is by far the best I’ve ever eaten! Brought back so many memories !!“

“Black Licorice Ice Cream… my husband is very happy!!!“

“I love this place and I have been coming here for over 10 years“

“Fave ice cream and buttery fresh baked cones/shells since first visit in ATL 11 years ago! They taste like they smell! Tried opaque tonight and it was delightful! So happy to have closer to home in SC!“

“The family and I were up at 3rd Street Promenade celebrating my oldest's birthday. We ate at Din Tai Fung and came here after. It was the first time I have eaten McConnell's. I was impressed with the flavor selection. The one I chose had salted caramel and brownies. I enjoyed it, it was rich and creamy so not very frozen. I would come back.“
