“My wife and I spent the day sailing in San Francisco for Fleet Week. On our way home to Santa Clara we stopped in Menchie's for some yogurt. WOW! We were both had the best yogurt ever! I had a pumpkin yogurt with graham cracker crumbles. It was awesome! (The employee recommendation) Staff was great and the price was not expensive and more than worth it! It was easy to get to on and off the freeway. We'll be back.“

“We worked with the SF Gelateria team for our wedding in Sonoma and it was a big hit! There was a large selection of flavors and they were responsive and easy to work with. Pricing was more reasonable than other vendors in the Sonoma / Napa area. Only wish that I had a chance to try all 7 flavors on the night of (or asked for a to-go container). Would definitely work with them again.“

“What a classic place to eat from breakfast to lunch and dinner they have a great burger but also other great items like chicken teriyaki I love it all but when in breakfast mood always get the chilli omelet with a patty on the side always hits the spot!“

“Great yogurt and ice cream. Service is great! Love going here!!!“

“Somisomi offers delicious soft serve and taiyaki that are always a treat. The flavors are rich, and the texture of both the soft serve and the taiyaki is perfect. However, the space itself isn’t the most inviting if you’re looking to hang out and enjoy your treat leisurely. It’s more of a grab-and-go spot, so don’t expect much in terms of seating or ambiance. Still, it’s worth stopping by for the tasty desserts!“

“America provided excellent service throughout our entire time there. As an employee who strives to provide excellent customer service in my job, I am always pleasantly surprised to see great customer service in a world where great customer service is rapidly decreasing. This will be our preferred Baskin Robbin’s, even though it’s not our closest.“

“good Italian ice cream so good“

“Fresh Fruit and smoothies !! Great place to go after a great run or exercise!!“

“First time here. Got a Rusa and a strawberry crepe. The Rusa is delicious. There is so much packed into one thing (pineapple, mango, orange, tamarindo straw, chammoy, tajin and squirt, and it is so delicious. Tart, sweet, sour, and most importantly, refreshing. The crepe was soft and warm. Freshly made, too. Next time i go, I'll definitely try the ice cream. They have so many flavors to choose from. The staff were very polite and attentive. I'm coming back for sure and you should go too.Bonus points: 2 pictures of Sonic the Hedgehog on the wall.“

“A friend suggested this place to me yesterday so of course I had to pop in to check it out. I walked in and immediately noticed how clean it was. Not only was the owner there, but he was super friendly and told me and my daughter about how he makes the ice cream himself with the help of his wife. I really don't think I've tried creamier ice cream. Was VERY impressed with everything about this place and will be coming back with family and telling friends to go here as well!“

“Muy rico, me encanto todo lo k compre pero especialmente las fresas con crema,“

“Shakes and good breakfast“

“Easy to navigate on the tablets in store. You can download the app as well to place an order for a pickup and drive straight to the store. Love the update of new flavors every week! If you download the app you will get 10$ off!

Parking: Easy free parking“

“Amazing, amazing~ I finished my cone and I'm already craving another one. I came here for the first time on a very busy Sunday afternoon. I tried a few flavors, including the honey lavender, which a lot of reviews rave about. It was okay, but I ended up choosing the chocolate hazelnut and pistachio.

What a great combination! Absolutely delicious. I might come here just for those two flavors. I would have given five stars, but the wait time was too long—just one person working on a busy weekend afternoon. We waited more than half an hour. Is it worth the wait? ABSOLUTELY, but I wish they would hire more people so the line could move faster. I'm already craving those flavors again right now.“

“Lovely owner and delicious frozen yogurt with probiotics :)“

“Great time with my daughter with plenty of topping choices and good yogurts!“

“We came upon this really cute food truck for ice cream when we were down at the bay and the ice cream was really good! A little pricey, but so worth it. The lavender tea is strong and bold but still really good. and the rose pistachio is amazing! The ice creams are rich and creamy. The mini scoop is a little small compared to American standard.The great thing about it is that it wasn’t too sweet. The service was good. Definitely will return.“

“10/10 REAL CANNOLIS THAT SATISFIED MY CRAVINGS!
I’ve been craving for real cannolis for some time but there aren’t any available in my area. I drove an hour just to get these and they were so worth it! I got a dozen cannolis, half filled with original and half with tiramisu.“

“Among all of us we had the Rose, Kulfi, vanilla, strawberry, chocolate, and also the puppy icecream. All the flavors were really nice and you could see real vanilla bean powder, nuts in the different flavors. Pepper did not stop licking till her icecream was done and then was looking for more. The people behind the counter were very friendly and kind to our chaos. We will definitely be going back.“

“Ran in for a milkshake and was in and out quickly. Girl was alone and doing a great job. As always, great ice cream!“

“The best Sandwich in 100 miles! Been coming here ever since it opened and will continue to eat delicious sandwiches for years to come. NOM NOM NOM.“

“Service was fast and friendly. It was very clean and safe inside. The lime ice cream was yummy, right amount of sweet and tart flavor. My husband loved the Uchepos too but didn’t get pics of either because they ate too fast. I got the fresas con crema and added mango to it and it was sooo good.“

“Amazing sandwiches and bread!!!!“

“Ice Cream is usually not my thing but when there’s a twist on it I gotta try it out. Toasted Marshmallows on top of your ice cream is definitely something different.
The ice cream isn’t bad. The flavor I chose was butter toffee I believe with the toasted marshmallow on top. The combination of the ice cream with toasted marshmallow is top tier.

Parking: Parking on the main streets as well as side streets

Kid-friendliness: What kid doesn’t like wafffle cones and ice cream

Wheelchair accessibility: Accessible and welcomed“

“Interesting flavors to try. I am glad they let you sample a little. The cinnamon seemed a little burnt according to one taster, the caramel one as well. The strawberry seemed to have a yogurt taste but also more of a raspberry flavor. I chose the mint with chocolate chip which was reminiscent of the leaf itself. It is a nice dessert place whether or not you had a big meal. Service is nice. PS there was a neat "show" if someone before you orders a toasted marshmallow.“

“Even with my limited Spanish the ladies were very nice and helped me order a delicious fresh made agua Fresca. They used actual blended mango rather than just powder and it was just the right amount of sweetness. Clean nice place and super reasonably priced go support!“

“This place is perfect for anyone who wants try something or wants to make something of their own like the vaso delicioso with combines fruit, chips, nuts, and candy with whatever sauce you want at the end, also the banana split is very good.“

“The people here are extremely nice! Service is quick and attentive. They have 31 flavors of popsicles, all made from real fruit! They had flavors I had never seen before, like yellow cherry.I tried the mangoneada which is mango, frozen mango pulp, chamoy, tajin, and tamarind. It is spicy, sour, salty and sweet all at the same time!Parking is a little tough but you can find it along the street. And, they take credit cards. Like everything in the Bay, it’s kind of pricey - but no more than a smoothie at Jamba juice.I’m going to come back in the summer with friends to get popsicles!“

“Sara’s cookies are amazing!!! Yum Yum Yum“

“Lots of unique flavors. It’s so good.“

“Humphry Slocombe offers unique and delightful flavors that will tantalize your taste buds. While my recent visit came with a bit of a wait (long lines and a single staff member managing the weekend crowd – kudos to her for her perseverance!), the delicious reward at the end solidified it as a 4-star experience.One of the things I loved about Humphry Slocombe (as with most ice cream places nowadays) is the opportunity to try before you buy. They offer tastings of their various flavors, allowing you to discover the perfect scoop (or two!) for your taste buds. They also cater to portion preferences with different sizes available, making it easy to indulge in a single scoop or grab a pint to enjoy later. For the pint-sized ice cream lovers, they even had a tempting buy-2-get-1-free deal – a great way to stock up on your favorites or try new flavors.After much deliberation, I landed on the Cornflake Crunch ice cream. This delightful concoction was a symphony of creamy sweetness with a touch of saltiness, perfectly complemented by the satisfying crunch of cornflakes. It was a flavor explosion, and every bite was a moment of pure joy. While they don't have any designated seating areas, this didn't take away from the experience. It was a beautiful day, and we enjoyed strolling through Redwood City's downtown with our ice creams in our hands.“

“The best ice cream place in town“

“She is now located in front of Tere’s Boutique near the Chavez Supermarket by Middlefield Road.I love her raspados so much! I used to get them after church growing up. Her recipes are delicious and traditional. My favorite one is the raspado de Guanábana (soursop). It’s perfectly sweet and the pieces of fruit are delicious. I have also tried and liked her limon, rompope, vainilla, coco, nuez, mango con chile and chicle flavors.I recommend also trying their tostilocos with everything plus extra hot sauce. They are super delicious and a very generous size. Her fruit cups are also really good. The fruit is always perfectly ripe and fresh.Definitely recommend when you’re in Redwood City. All her antojitos are delicious, fresh and never overpriced. Great value, taste and quality.“

“I was going to get my birthday ice cream, and you might know on your birthday you can get one for free. However, I am from Canada, so when I registered and wanted to get my application, I couldn’t, because for iPhones from other countries they restricted access to download the application. I was standing there and struggling, thinking my luck for this year is not good to work… Owner saw it , and get me my birthday ice cream:) I really appreciate it! Thank you:) Lucky for this year;)“

“Raises the Tea bar considerably!“

“Right off the bike bath! yummy grilled cheese and fantastic chocolate. passion fruit ice tea too :-) donates to local schools“

“This is our go-to place for tart frozen yogurt. It tastes way better than other yogurt places and the combination flavor is on point.

However, there’s always a long line if you come here over the weekend ? Thankfully, you don’t need to wait long, about 10-15 mins.“

“You have to try different variety of drink and dessert. So, there's a menu outside the door that you can choose any drink drink and dessert, what sweetness strength that you like etc... and it's cashless
HINT: if you see a person in front of you ordering stuff you can go inside and order as well. There's two menu machine inside.“

“I look forward to the Mitchell's ice cream at Scoop, and a HUGE variety of flavors. I stop by whenever I visit Palo Alto (from up the Peninsula). All of the employees (except one who plays such obnoxious music that even I won't go inside the store) are exceptionally nice and helpful. Otherwise, the music played in very entertaining and appropriate. And they DO give samples! But not until after you buy, and they call it something else besides a sample. It's a sad fact that here in San Mateo there is NO good ice cream place, either Downtown or near Downtown. Perhaps Scoop could consider expanding northward (hoping they read this glowing review).“

“Great place for Asian drinks!“

“Standard experience at Baskin-Robbins, in terms of ice cream quality. Service was on the slow side, as there was only one person doing everything, so the line started to get long. Easy to find parking, though, as there’s a large free parking lot.“

“Great place, and self serve so the kids portion are appropriately sized.“

“It taste good“

“Have usually gotten good service from Kurt and Cindy, but new employee was ever better. Ordered two scoop sundae and she was extremely friendly in describing the ice cream and how much she liked her job. Prices here are higher than Redwood City (not sure why?) but lots of seating and parking available. Very Pleased“
