I did this by phone. The woman I spoke to was very nice and assured me my order would be right and ready on time. It was.The place is just spotless and the service is wonderful. We were so pleased with the cake. It was great. We also had some ice cream while we were there and it too was wonderful.We especially loved the service from the B&R. It was just perfection.Have a great time eating some ice cream.“

“So cool to be appreciated, and have our spirits lifted at KP LAMC Rehab with Pazzo Gelato!“

“Definitely Recommend This Place 👌“

“100% vegan, Indonesian-inspired flavors I’d never seen before, nothing generic, nothing “just vanilla with oat milk.” Coconut cream base gives it this rich, unique texture. Small-batch, clearly made with care, and the space has this cool cave-like feel that makes it worth the visit on its own. A must if you think you’ve already had the best vegan ice cream.

“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.“

“Third time here in a couple of weeks and I’ll just keep coming back! It’s delicious ice cream, with a fun walk up type vibe and friendly service. The 4 scoop sampler is such a steal, tried their hurricanes for the first time last night and I think I found my favorite. Do yourself a favor get a hurricane, vanilla ice cream with peanut butter cups and caramel swirl! As a custard snob from the Midwest, I APPROVE!“

“I ordered a hot fudge sundae with black cherry chip ice cream. The cherry flavor was perfect and really enjoyed the thickness and taste of the hot fudge . Our group did try some of other flavors, like the rhubarb one, but some of the flavors did not come through - so be to get a taste before deciding“

“Bacio di Latte is hands down one of the best places in Beverly Hills for authentic gelato. Every flavor tastes incredibly fresh, rich, and made with high-quality ingredients. Whether you're a fan of classic favorites or want to try something new, there's something for everyone.

The shop is bright, welcoming, and the staff is always friendly and happy to offer samples if you're having a hard time deciding. It's the perfect place to stop after dinner, while shopping, or anytime you're craving a great dessert.

If you're in Beverly Hills and love exceptional gelato, Bacio di Latte is definitely worth a visit. I'll gladly be back again and again.“

“I love Salt & Straw! They have delicious ice cream that tastes and looks like the description and you can usually see pieces of the goodies in it. I got a split scoop of the peaches & cream and the honey lemon chess pie. Both very refreshing on a hot summer day!“

“whenever someone visiting asks me where a good matcha place is, i always recommend tea master! i love all of their matcha offerings, and i especially love coming here for dessert after a meal and getting the matcha soft serve. service is friendly and efficient.“

“Delicious ice cream. Nice variety of selections. I got the affogato and it was perfect. The young kid with the curly hair in his eyes is extremely rude and grumpy. No hello, nothing. Gave us an attitude when we asked him about the cones. It's an ice cream shop. Smile more, you're working in the wrong place kid.Unfortunately this is the norm now with this generation.“

“Excellent burgers!!!!!!!!“

“Best handmade ice cream ever!!!! Love the Taro and Ferrero Roche ice cream“

“Delicious ice cream and best red bean paste! We can’t wait to go back!“

“Really enjoyed Salt & Straw!

My friend got Sea Salt, and I ordered Strawberry Honey Balsamic and Sea Salt in a cup.
The portions were huge, and everything was delicious.

I also loved that you can sample the flavors before ordering.
My favorite was definitely the Sea Salt!

The shop was pretty quiet when we visited, so ordering and pickup were quick and easy.
Highly recommended!“

“Artisanal ice cream. Very good.“

“Delicious hand rolled ice cream, tastes so fresh. And three toppings included!! Exceptional service with a plethora of knowledge on the options (I’m chronically indecisive and everything looked good! She was a wonderful help!) So happy to have found this spot.“

“Unique and flavorful selections of pies and sortserve.“

“my favorite gelato place in the valley! so yummy and delicious - it just absolutely melts right in your mouth! i was served by the guy, Will, and he was absolutely so delightful & kind! it is rare to find people who bring the kind of customer service he does!!!! somehow he made a simple gelato trip really fun! (he's also super cute too)“

“We had a great experience at Bacio di Latte! The gelato was absolutely delicious, and there were so many different flavors to choose from. The staff was very friendly and let us try several flavors before we decided. Everything was fresh and tasty. I highly recommend this place and will definitely be back!“

“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!“

“Visited here on a Friday evening & it was moderately busy. This specific spot is very spacious compared to other Salt & Straws, clean interior is always a plus. Love that they have a little merchandise store with some benches inside & some open tables outside.

Parking here can be a bit tough though. Either parking on the curb which can be hard due to how packed the Art District can get. The alternate is to park in paid lots that can range from $4- $15+

Staff here is great, my wife and I wanted to try plenty of ice cream flavors and they were really accommodating & friendly.

We decided on a double scoop on a cup. Our two flavors combined were Salted Malted Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough & Hazelnut Cookies & Cream. Scoop sizes are pretty big and pretty overflowing for the cups. It would be perfect if the cups were just a bit bigger to hold the scoops. Although it's a bit sweet, it was the perfect dessert after a meal.

Overall, great spot for ice cream, can't go wrong with any flavors as all the flavors are delicious. Love the vibes here because of the staff, will definitely be back whenever I'm in the area.“

““I stopped by Viva Cafe and ordered the pineapple and mango ice creams along with a chicken pesto sandwich. The ice cream selection here is incredible — they really have the widest variety of flavors in the neighborhood. Both the pineapple and mango were super fresh and delicious. The chicken pesto sandwich was also really good, fresh and full of flavor. Such a great little spot!”“

“best ice dessert !!!“

“Ever since I had Hokkaido ice cream, I’ve been dreaming about it. I love that Indigo Cow opened up in LA, and I don’t have to fly to Hokkaido to get it!

The soft serve ice cream is served in two flavors here. I highly recommend the Hokkaido milk! You won’t get a creamier softer ice cream than anywhere else. I opted to add the mochi, brown sugar syrup, and roasted soy bean powder for an extra $2. It wasn’t bad, but I think I would add warabimochi next time!

I was here after dinner, and there were no other patrons. I didn’t have to wait. The place is small, but there is indoor seating and water station. No bathroom though.

Parking here is tough because you have to find a spot on the street.

An izakaya opened up next door recently.“

“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“
