“Exelente servicio y todo de primera calidad súper recomendado“

“Went for the first time today after passing by after my fitness class several times, my friend and I got several samples of different flavors and the guy working there was very friendly the ice cream was very good and they had a large selection of flavors and the portions were very generous, I ended up going back in to get some for my family.“

“SO GOOD 10/10 I ordered a custom order which is a cup of elote with everything, two small bags of hot Cheetos added, and personally I like the nachos cheese as well. THEY DIDN’T DISAPPOINT!!! It came out just the way I wanted it the only thing I would change is to ask to have the hot Cheetos crushed up. I’ll be coming here regularly for sure!“

“best local burger spot. Fresh, delicious and great prices. 👍 Support local businesses.“

“I normally order the Panda Cloud Foam. Today I ordered the White Rabbit and Meis Keso Both good“

“The BEST Carne Asada Street tacos and only $1 each. I stock up with these whenever I'm in the area and keep them in the fridge for later.The fruit drinks are exceptionally good and very generously sized.The place is super clean and the staff is very friendly.Worth the drive from wherever.“

“I love coming here because everything is always so awesome and the service Is always on point. Even better the owner takes time to know her customers and besides getting something delicious to eat or drink I guarantee that u will leave with a smile. . The best addition to the plaza for sure...“

“Fantastic, velvety smooth creative flavors and made from scratch! They also switch out their flavors every 2 weeks or so! Fun concept, wonderful staff. Highly recommend. Putting San Diego on the food map :)“

“Their homemade ice cream“

“I enjoy this place so much! The food tastes absolutely delicious and the atmosphere makes me feel at home! 100% recommend coming here! The workers are so polite and welcoming. Along with that, the inside is so warm contrasting the outside cold!“

“It’s nice to have soft serve in the hood!!“

“Delicious ice cream and cones, great rewards, but the staff at this location has consistently terrible attitudes towards customers. Would come here way more often if they could find a scooper who could at least pretend to be happy to be there.

2/12/26 Update: Moved to 5 stars because there are now nice staff.“

“We found Cabetos a few years ago at a farmers market. Ever since then if we ever see them somewhere- it’s a must have treat. We recently had a grand opening event for our new business and had them cater. They were awesome to work with. Weston, who was at our event was so fun and EVERYONE loved the ice cream. I highly recommend to find them at a farmers market near you or book them for your next event. I now need to go to their new store! So fun!“

“This your local Ma & Pop shop. Personal Fav: Acai/Blue Spirulina Bowl (Acai Roots Brand 💜) They have quite a few bases to choose from so that's nice.

Every bowl, no matter who is working, is made with love. Employees are super sweet, very engaging and always greet you with a smile when you walk in.

Froyo/Sorbet/Gelato favors, yes they have multiple options, are super good and changing often. However, Pineapple Dole is always on tap which is another personal fav of mine, so that's rad.

If you want an OG froyo/acai bowl... This is your spot.“

“I live in Arizona and walking my found this place. To sum it up I’m addicted to this ice cream. Every time we go to San Diego I have this ice cream 2 to 3 times a day.“

“We strolled over after Fish Guts and enjoyed a cooling treat after a hot day. The mango shaved ice, avocado pistachio ice and coffee almond fudge all had great flavors. We got cookies to take home also (so good). I will definitely try the shaved ice next time around.“

“The flavor of the ice cream is worth the $$$ that we paid for it My favorite flavors are great golden pistachio and butter pecan“

“First time here and it was so good. I got the twister with the flavors Oreo and berry cheesecake (yes it’s a weird combination) and it was so flavorful the cheesecake bits were yummy! I also got the Junior for the size of the twister and the Junior size is already very filling and it’s the smallest size! The staff here were also nice to us. They also sell burgers and popcorn chicken here. Definitely would come back to try the burgers and popcorn chicken here. I also like how there are two screens to order.“

“Love it there, the lady and son and workers are really nice 👍“

“Great food and ice cream. Very good service given by a sweet lady.“

“bomb.com !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!“

“Can’t believe I didn’t know that this place existed. Definitely a different take on FroYo. They give you so much and it’s not necessarily buy weight, which is awesome. They give you way more than what they advertise in the ounces. The FroYo is also really light and creamy, and they are very generous with the topping amount.“

“Ok, I am from NY and love pizza. I am not a NYC pizza snob though and welcome all iterations of 'za! I have to say that this pizza is probably the best I have ever had of its type. They are "Roman" slices, meaning focaccia crust. Variety of slice options are insane with creative combinations that are not only imaginative, but insanely delicious. Slices are cooked upon ordering for supreme freshness. I especially like the Lussuria - prosciutto, black pepper, mashed potato, mozzarella and olive oil. (I NEVER thought I would like mashed potato on a slice, but it's insanely good.) The help here is amazing as well. Caesar was working the oven and he gave great suggestions and explained the product well. Very inviting and definitely steered me in the right direction. Need gluten free? They got it! Will make a GF slice for you right on the spot. I challenge anyone to have just one slice. I had to go back for 2 more. Enjoy!“

“The sizes will throw you off ..seems pricey before you receive your yogurt -

The mini was big .. And they put tons in the cup... It was plenty- although the yogurt was so outstanding I would have loved a large and probably could have powered through it... lol

I had the peanut butter with yogurt chips it was awesome my friend had the chocolate with no topping and hers was awesome too, which I never thought I'd say with no toppings.

*In summary: Don't let the prices and the size is throw you off just go and eat their yummy yogurt!“

“The place is very clean. Variety of flavors and toppings and the staff is very friendly. Price is about $0.49 per Oz. Filled up with kiwi strawberry, watermelon, and cookie n cream. Comparable with NuYo, but pricier.“

“They have great flavors and toppings.“

“Fantastic ice cream and fantastic service! This was my first time visiting this shop after passing by several times and observing lines out the door. My ice cream did NOT disappoint! I chose Blueberry Cobbler, which was excellent, and I can’t wait to try some other incredible flavors. The staff were friendly and efficient. 10/10 recommend!“

“If you haven't been to Yogurt Express yet, I feel sorry for you. You're missing out big time. Coolest, cleanest, funnest yogurt shop in the area for sure! Only problem is, you can't just eat one : ) Harp“

“Delicious! A must visit. We bring out of town visitors here all the time and they love it as well. They have various flavors of paletas, both with and without dairy. You can order them as-is or with toppings. They have some varieties of toppings to pick from or you can order a paleta with pre-picked toppings from their menu. They also have ice cream and you can order an ice cream sandwich with conchas (sweet bread). No sitting space but we usually take it to go.“

“Best ice cream in the country!“

“Love it and delicious... I will be back definitly... Very cheap prices...“

“Best Ice cream in San Diego“

“Crumbl Cookie Shop never disappoints. I really appreciated how fast our order was assembled — efficient, organized, and seamless from start to finish.

One of the best parts is that you can actually see them baking and preparing everything. The open concept adds a level of transparency and freshness that makes the experience even better.

The cookies were warm, soft, and packed with flavor. Great service, great quality, and consistently a solid choice when you’re craving something sweet. We’ll definitely be back.“

“Just received these as a gift ! Beautiful packaging! Great taste!“

“D lux la nieve“

“Great choices. we didn't have time to see them all“

“Lo que pruebes esta delicioso! 🤤🤤“

“friendly staff and everything we ordered was delicious“

“Every time I visit, the cookies are fresh, warm, and packed with flavor. I love that the menu changes weekly—it keeps things fun and gives me something new to look forward to. The store is super clean, the staff is friendly, and the service is always fast. My favorites so far are the classic chocolate chip and any of their seasonal specials. Definitely worth the hype!“

“love the customer service“

“This place is A+!!! You can buy posicles for 50 cents each or a dozen for only six bucks and you can pick any flavors you want and make your own custom box! I don't know why it's not as popular but it's my favorite store now. Definitely check it out if you can, you won't be disappointed“

“I Don’t Go Often But When I Do I’m Never Disappointed!! Yum“

“Delicious! Recommend 10/10 🤤🤤“

“Great quality. Prices are good.“

“La atencion al cliente muy buena.“

“Love great cookies!“

“Best raspados in San Diego! I’ve been a client/fan of theirs for over 20 years ! Been visiting them since I was a kid and now I bring my kids here . All natural homemade flavors . Chamoy and Ciruela with lechera are my 2 faves ! Always some nachos as well. This family business has always been super friendly and respectful. Their commitment to quality and service has never changed and sets them apart from any other place . Always super clean and incredibly humble business“

“I like this place choose your own. I ice cream yogurt, my little daughter she likes the frozen yogurt it was wonderful. Take whatever you want. Go out you can sit outside also but the only things missing when you get into the business especially like employed standing they’re not sitting they supposed to say hello like when you get into Subway welcome to Subway. Welcome to Home Depot. Thank you for visiting these words. They’re very important to any business. When I get there, it was look like I am getting to cemetery.“

“This was a great experience! From the guy who answered my questions over the phone and to the girl who gave me the cake at pick-up. Great staff, great cake, great experience. I placed the custom order online and they came through! The cake was beautiful and delicious.“

“Great neighborhood spot! Anytime I want a small treat late in the evening, I can always rely on this spot. The lady who works there at night is very friendly. Doesn't speak much but I feel welcomed each time. Community staple!!! How exciting can froyo be? It's not otherworldly but it's consistent, and sometimes that's more than enough 😊.“
