About Salt & Straw

Salt & Straw is an ice cream specialty store known for its innovative flavors. Popular choices include Salted Caramel Ribbon, Honey Lavender, and Oishii Strawberry Pretzel Salad. The small-batch ice cream is rich, creamy, and full of flavor, making it a cut above the rest. The variety can be overwhelming, but staff are available to offer silver spoons for tastings, making it easier to choose. While some flavor combinations may be unusual, this fun spot is perfect for those who enjoy trying new things. It is a recommended destination for ice cream lovers, especially after a day at the beach or during an afternoon walk.

The ice cream is praised for its delicious taste and high quality, though it is on the pricier side, with a single scoop costing around $8 with tax and tip. Parking can be a challenge, as street parking is limited, but nearby smaller side streets may offer some options. While seating options are limited, with just a small bench outside and a few stools inside, the experience is worth it for adventurous flavor seekers. The vibe is lively and fun, with a mix of taste-testers and those debating flavor pairings, including out-of-the-box options like pickled cucumber sorbet or the olive oil classic, which is a personal favorite and dangerously addictive. The staff are cheerful and professional, handling many requests for samples with ease. Overall, Salt & Straw is a great spot for those looking to enjoy unique flavors and high-quality ice cream, despite the higher prices and limited parking.

Share your opinion about Salt & Straw

Goat Cheese and Black Olives ice cream was delicious. The service was exceptional and the customer service provided by EVERY SINGLE ONE of their ice cream parlor workers was outstanding. You wont go wrong visiting the Abbot Kinney location.
Very unique and flavorful ice cream, definitely has flavors you’d enjoy. Staff very friendly and kind, i’d highly encourage others to try this place 10/10
We are fans of all salt and straw all the time but wanted to give a special shoutout to this location and Xander was the name of the associate who was working when we visited (he may be the manager, not positive). We were looking for a specific flavor that was from last month and called to see if they had it and he went and checked while we were on the phone, and they did! when we arrived he helped us get what we came for. Really was willing to go above and beyond!
