Ben gave a warm welcome with these delicious cold treats! The ice cream is so smooth and creamy and not too sweet but also nostalgic for a Fil-Am growing up with these desserts. It's amazing how smooth the ice cream is without melting quickly versus other spots where the ice cream would be ice hard sometimes. Pull up and vibe out here at the Enclave with this delicious treat read more

It was our first time here and the person helping us out at the time was super welcoming and helpful! He encouraged us to taste all the ice creams and let us sample whatever we wanted to try. We ended up getting the halo halo and mango ice cream and the flavors were SUPER fresh. No artificial mango flavoring and tasted exactly like fresh mango He did mention a deal on Mondays for 10% off scoops as well read more

Ben Scoops - Single scoop - halo halo on top and mango at the bottom - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Torrance, California

Kept seeing this place on social media, so we decided to check it out. We went around 30 minutes before they closed. It seems like there was only one worker but she was great. She let us know that we can sample whatever we wanted and that she had some of the ice cream in the back. The store was spacious and was very bright inside. I'm not sure if it was because they were going to close soon but it seemed like they can fit a lot of tables in there. I tried some flavors to get a sense if I wanted fruity or milky. I ended up going with Mango and Halo Halo. The mango was so good it reminded me of those sweet Philippines mangoes. It had a very sticky and stretchy texture. The halo halo was good too. I loved all the different toppings on it. read more

Ben Scoops - Mango and Halo Halo Ice cream - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Torrance, California

Love their flavors and the toffee toppings is so good! Can't wait to try their other flavors. Very popular!

A Filipino ice cream spot that deserves its 5 star rating. The owner is really nice and helpful, he makes sure your looked after and even continues to recommend items after you ordered. He wants you to try samples of the ice cream and gives generous scoops even for a "single scoop". My favorites are definitely the Mango and the Cantaloupe. I wanted to try the Calamansi but unfortunately he was already out. This location is a little tucked in but the ice cream sign outside is a big help in finding! Perfect for the summer Heat!

I really don't get why this place is rated so high‍. The ice cream tasted old and the ingredients weren't fresh at all. I can't say much about service bc it's a one man operation and nobody was there. He didn't give us napkins and when we did ask for napkins he gave us one napkin each. One! It was that cheap, thin as toilet paper type of napkin at that. After spending over $25. What a disgrace. Not coming back here and don't recommend. Handel's for life lol read more

Great flavors and super friendly service! We tried several flavors--the mango, lychee, halo halo, and ube. All fantastic!

WOW WOW WOW! I have never had this great of a customer experience anywhere. This a small ice cream shop that I decided to try because I received an email on Yelp saying this was apart of the top 100 ice cream shops. I hardly travel to Carson but I was in the area and curious to try. I came in to get a small scoop for me and a pint to take home to a friend. The employee was so kind and gave me a lot of insight to how the fruit is imported for the ice cream. He suggested so many samples and flavors, it was very difficult to choose which one I liked the most. Cantaloupe is one of my favorite fruits and this is by far the best cantaloupe ice cream I've had. For the pint, I got Halo Halo with lots of fruit and different textures. As for me, I got the grasshopper pie (mint), macapuno (coconut) and some cantaloupe. It was such a great flavor combination and this whole experience made my day. Thank you, hope to visit again soon! read more

Ben Scoops - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Torrance, California

We have Mitchelll's Ice Cream in the South Bay! You can save yourself a trip to San Francisco! MItchell's Ice Cream is churned in San Francisco. "Ben Scoops" scoops up Mitchell's Ice Cream here in Carson, CA. We are so happy Ben has opened this shop! He's a friendly guy and we've chatted with him on all but two of our visits here. Ben has mostly been the one doing the scooping. I'm so sorry for the long overdue review! I even encouraged my Yelp friends to visit this place back when Ben Scoops opened up after I had been here. Better late than never! This place is in the next plaza over from Back Home In Lahaina & Burratino Pizza. On the last visit, we walked over from the pizza place for dessert here. Parking is plentiful & free in this plaza. I love the Ice Cream that's offered here! My favorites are the Spumoni, Eggnog, & Halo Halo! We have tried lots of the different flavors. Ben gives samples! TIP: Some flavors are seasonal. Others are available year round. *If you like Fruit Cake, try the Spumoni! I love Fruit Cake and this one really reminded me of some of the fruits & nuts in Fruit Cake minus the cake part. [Contains: Madagascar Bourbon Vanilla blend and Chocolate Ice Cream with Rum flavoring, Roasted California Almonds, Raisins, Cherries and other dried fruit] So good! This flavor is available during the Winter season. *As for the Eggnog, it is such a creamy & luxurious ice cream! Our family loves this! Too bad it's only available during the Fall/Winter season! *The Halo Halo is delicious! I love the various fruits in it! [Contains: Coconut, Jackfruit, Ube, Pineapple, Mongo Beans, Sweet Beans and Palm Fruit] Taking into consideration that the ice cream is shipped from San Francisco, it's good that his prices are not super inflated. Sorbets cost .50¢ more than Ice Cream. The ice cream scoop prices are good. They also sell Pints, Quarts, & Half Gallons. You can buy pre-packed tubs or they will hand-pack your flavor for you. These are a priced about $2-$3 more than what you'd pay at Mitchell's in San Francisco. Unlike the length of time it took me to getting around to writing this review, returning for more ice cream will not take as long! We love this place! With Ben you can count on service with a smile & friendly chats! Visits: 10-21-2022, 11-13-2022, 01-16-2023, 03-25-2023, 06-07-2023, 07-19-2023, 12-23-2023, 01-12-2024 read more

I'm absolutely shocked at how amazing their ice cream tastes! This has always been on my list to go to eventually, and I finally did a few days ago. When I entered the establishment, the store was spotless and loved the interior. I was then introduced by Nino! We had such a genuine convo and honestly knew the ice cream was going to be good even before even trying it just from that cause I can tell he was passionate in his craft, along with Ben who I didn't get to meet unfortunately. Anyway, back to the important part the ice cream! I tried a handful of their flavors and all of them have been so delicious, perfectly amount of sweetness, and is rich in flavor. My favorites were the mango and cantaloupe flavor. I definitely need to try more flavors and can't wait when right season comes for their seasonal flavors! My mom said they should make their own pandesal, and stuff with ice cream just like how they do it in the Philippines! I brought her some home too and enjoyed it as much as me. I love supporting local businesses, and not only that but supporting my own culture! Ben Scoops is truly a hidden gem! -"Anakin Skywalker" read more

I love the Filipino inspired flavors here. My mom doesn't even like icecream but she loves this! I've had the sticky monkey (banana), ube, langka (jackfruit), and halo halo - they were divine! You can sample and see what you like. The owner is very friendly. This spot is a little hard to find - it's around the corner of the plaza. Free parking! read more

Ben Scoops - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Torrance, California

Being a fan of Filipino flavored ice cream; I've had Ben Scoops on my list of items to try for awhile now. Ben Scoops in Carson, CA is the only Southern California location that serves Mitchell's Ice Cream from San Francisco!. Mitchell's Ice Cream was the first to introduce mango and other Filipino flavors to the Bay Area back in the 60s. Some of the flavors that were available the day we went were Mango, Toasted Almond, Ube, Macapuno, Pistachio and Halo Halo. I chose to get the Toasted Almond along with Ube on a waffle cone. Single scoops up to 2 flavors is $6.50 and a waffle cone is an extra 75 cents. They also have double scoops ($7.50) and triple scoops ($10.50) available. One can also milkshakes ($8.50), pints ($12.50-$13.50) , quarts ($16.50-$17.50) and 1/2 gallons ($21.50) of ice cream. ⁣ Ben Scoops ice cream made for the perfect sweet treat. Their ice cream was so creamy and very flavorful. I really enjoyed both the Toasted Almond and Ube ice cream. They also give a lot for the scoops and so it was definitely one fulfilling treat as well. One side to note here is that they do charge extra for credit cards; so make sure to bring cash if you don't want to incur an extra fee. I will definitely be back with some cash and am excited to try more of their ice cream flavors. I've got my eye on the popular mango! ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ read more

Ok so I have been wanting to stop by for a while now and finally did! You will not regret it! Plan your visit now. I was able to sample a few flavors as there were too many to choose from. The flavors do rotate seasonally which I love because I'm always looking to try new flavors. I went with the eggnog and coffee flavored icecream and it was amazing! I'm ready to go back and try the spumoni that I was told will be available soon for the holidays. Also how can I not mention the patient, helpful gentleman that was running the shop. He truly cares a lot about the customers and their overall experience and satisfaction. Come support this small business as you will not be disappointed. read more

Great place to try if you like rich and smooth ice cream! I got ube and coconut. The ube flavor was the first time i've had any kind of ube dessert that wasn't artificially flavored and colored bright purple. It's so pleasantly different to taste real ube. It's not overly sweet and even had small chunks of it throughout the ice cream. read more

Great Filipino ice cream place in Carson!! Loved the giant variety of flavors. Very smooth and creamy. I tried the espresso crunch (very similar to the Thrifty flavor ---love!!) and the macapuno (young coconut). Both super yummy! They have a couple tables outside and parking is easy in the lot. read more

All. The. Wasted. Years. Had no idea this has been here basically in my backyard for the past 3 years. ‍ But now that I know this exists, anytime I've got a hankering for Pinoy-based ice cream - or just ICE CREAM - you know exactly where I'm heading. My first visit was Halo Halo and Mango btw. Delicious! Can't wait to explore the rest of their flavors and combinations. And thanks Nino for the tip about Big Mouth (I need to get out more). Will definitely check that out too! read more

Very underrated ice cream spot in Carson. Ben's scoops is based on the famous Mitchell's ice cream from San Francisco, with an emphasis on Filipino flavors! Their most popular flavors are ube and macapuno (coconut), which unfortunately were sold out during my visit. I got their avocado and mango flavor which were delicious, and go well together. They let you have as many samples as you want, and let you try out different combinations. Some notable ones I remember are their: cantaloupe, langka (jackfruit), halo halo, and espresso toffee crunch. They even serve pints! read more

Great ice cream and the place was cool with murals, custom flavor titles on the walls and really unique but delicious flavors. Our server Nino was very nice! Try the Grasshopper flavor it is very good! read more

Dinner across the street at Back Home at Lahaina, led to a Yelp search for something sweet, only to find Ben Scoops right across the street (Northwest corner of Carson St and Grace, NW corner of the shopping center, a bit hidden, but worth the find). Great ice cream, Mitchell's San Francisco (I had Ube + Makapuno), then after a sample of pumpkin, bought a pint to go. Owner spent time talking about his story, his love for Mitchell's Ice Cream and how and why he opened this shop. On top of single servings, they sell pints and gallons, with a focus on tropical flavors like Ube, Coconut, Mango, Jackfruit, and of course other traditional flavors. Really fine ice cream and a great owner, the kind of place you want to give your business. Will definitely be back for a treat and for a special addition to holiday parties upcoming. read more

Amazing halo halo made with creamy durian and langka ice creams! Chock full of fruits, beans and crunchies and large enough to share!

Ben recommended the halo halo to us and it was amazing, not as sweet as others I've had. The mango is delicious as well!

Dessert time in Carson, California... After dinner, my friend, Craig Y., suggested that we have dessert across the street at Ben Scoops. I kind of didn't want to go because I'm lactose intolerant, but... I scrolled through reviews on Yelp and saw that Craig had gotten Review Of The Day (ROTD) here in May 2023. Okay... We must go and celebrate Craig's ROTD!!! We found free parking in the shared parking lot. Craig was taking photos outside, so I followed him. Ha! It's such a cute place! Outside, Craig pointed out that the yellow and purple chairs are Lakers' colors... yes! Inside, the wall mural is very Instagramable! The shop is bright and clean! We sat inside on stools that were placed along a ledge. Service was very welcoming and friendly! The pleasant man offered samples and told us which ice creams were new and which ones were dairy free. He gave me samples of the Mango and Raspberry sorbets. They had intense, true fruit flavor. However, the halohalo option caught my eye. I decided to take the risk and consume a few Lactaid pills with the generous serving and savored every bite! Wow! It was so rich and creamy! I enjoyed the small bits of halohalo ingredients that were mixed in with the ice cream! I think I should return and try more flavors! read more

This place was such a good find for us. While on the way to Del Amo mall we decided to stop here during traffic. The guy behind the counter was so nice and allowed up to sample as much as we liked. He made great recommendations and told us which ones were most popular. We ended up getting the ube and espresso flavor which were both delicious. They had the right amount of sweetness and the consistency was perfect. Each scoop was really two so the portion size was good. It was also really affordable. Besides what we got, I also enjoyed the halo halo flavor, which we were told was one of the popular ones. Another popular flavor was their mango. I liked that Ben Scoops had flavors that no where else had. For instance they had avocado and jackfruit. There were few places to sit inside but there was seating outside as well. It's a little hidden in the plaza in the corner. Parking was easy since it was in a strip mall. read more
