Visiting for the weekend and I was craving ice cream and a good time :p. My friend recommended claws and cream and I don't know if if was more excited to try the ice cream or play the claw machines. We ordered the matcha soft serve and we got it immediately after paying. The matcha flavor was super strong and the texture of the soft serve was super delicious. They had an interesting chili crisp flavor on the menu, I definitely have to try that next time. The claw machine is $1/1token ratio, they have all types of plushies catered to all people. The staff was super helpful when it came to trades and resetting the machines. I will definitely come back! read more

After enjoying a shaved ice dessert across the street, we'd spotted the inviting sign of Claws and Cream. After researching on Yelp, we decided to stop in (although we'd just had dessert), as a soft serve sounded good to hubby. Staff was friendly and helpful in guiding us through their menu. We ordered: - Pandan Coconut Soft Serve, $6.50 - Vanilla Soft Serve ($6) with Chocolate sauce We were impressed with the generous servings and stiff consistency, as well as the tasty flavors. Nice-&-spacious, with a variety of comfortable seating options, conducive to enjoying our desserts! Looking forward to returning (soon!) to experience more off their menu. Fun & tasty find!! read more

I've been driving by this place forever and finally was able to check it out after dinner! Right when you step in, it is pretty warm at the entry but keep walking it gets cooler. So many cute decorations on the walls and ceiling. Loved the green velvet chairs they had. Lots of different types of claw machines! It was fun watching people get so excited for being so close and some actually getting them! We had a group of us and we all ordered something different and all really enjoyed it! We tried their pandan strawberry and biscoff crumble. I personally dislike coconut flakes so I should have told them not to put those on but it's also so pretty decorated. I enjoyed the corn flakes in the middle! It was a very nice surprise and crunch! Biscoff was so yummy. Can't go wrong and it was loaded with biscoff! My friend tried their Dubai and he said it was really good! Their soft serve all looked amazing and I love how it looks. It's so perfect! They also had the viral chili ice cream too! Excited to try some other flavors this summer! read more

Claws and Cream - Pandan strawberry and biscoff crumble ! Both yum!! - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Garden Grove, California

Enjoyable spot for a sweet treat. Claw games and a few board games available to play with family and friends. Soft serve was more ice than milk which was a nice change for us! $6 for one sized cup, appreciate that there is no hole in the swirl! Perfect swirl :) Detail is definitely in the flavors as they were light and really good. Pineapple was my favorite it reminds me of dole whip just an "icy" version. Pandan coconut had great flavor and if I got the vanilla next time I would add toppings! Mango sticky rice latte was good, I personally am not a fan of the rice but a solid choice to try out. Also everything wasn't super sweet either, which is my preference. There is long booth/couch style seating great for little to medium groups. Service was quick and friendly; space was clean and there's a good amount to entertain! read more

This spot replaced the previous dessert business, but remodeled and updated a couple things. They renamed to "Claws and Cream" because they added claw machines near the back walls and some tabletop games (like Connect 4). biscoff ice cream -- pretty good, can't go wrong with biscoff. has a vanilla base ice cream that I feel is very similar to other places we've been to. strawberry try shortcake -- good, but not as good as the biscoff. same vanilla base ice cream as the biscoff. We finished most of it, but didn't feel like it's that special Overall, decent spot to add to your dessert rotation, especially if you live nearby. read more

I went to Claws & Cream because they had a promo a while back. I got banana soft serve and my friends got matcha. It was good because it was not too sweet, and very filling.

Been here a couple times, overall pretty good experience! The staff is very friendly! Wait time can get a bit lengthy if it's busy. The ice cream is great and drinks are pretty decent.I love their matcha soft-serve! It's a must-get if you ever stop by! I honestly think any flavor you choose will be a hit, and i believe you can choose up to 2 free toppings for your ice cream. As for the setting, there are lots of seating, claw machines and games you can play! It can get a little loud during the evening on the weekends with so many family and friends hanging out at the shop, so it may not be the best place to study if that's what you're looking for. read more

Tasty ice cream. Fast and friendly service. Loud and fun place to hang out. I like that they are open late, which makes it a great spot to hang out. The claw machines made it an even better choice while enjoying some delicious ice cream. Our group decided to share the durian ice cream since we were still full from dinner. I am not the biggest fan of durian (yes, I am Viet, and yes, my parents made me eat it growing up... it just never stuck, fight me), but I gave it a try and was pleasantly surprised. The texture was especially good. I would come back to try other flavors, and next time I will make sure I come hungry for my own order. read more

Wow super cute spot! Outside, the place looks unassuming but inside, there's so much seating and so many fun claw machines. There's plenty of board games too. The place is meant to enjoy a treat (there's ice cream, teas, and matcha) while playing games and hanging out. The desserts are massive too! Huge portion and so tasty!!! I love the matcha affogato- it comes with almonds and caramel and the caramel surprisingly goes so well with the matcha read more

This is definitely a cute spot to get ice cream and drinks. There was limited parking. There's a ton of tables inside and a good amount of claw machines. They offer free lactaid at the counter for my fellow lactose intolerants. The worker that helped up was friendly. He told us about the different types of ice creams they have as well as drinks. I tried the matcha affogato and the coffee affogato. Both were super delicious. The matcha flavor was rich which I love. It good but I did find it a bit overpriced for what it is. I got to try their claw machines and got lucky and snagged a capybara on the second try. They also have board games you can play while there. read more

The décor is charming and creates a fun, relaxing vibe. The staff is incredibly friendly and genuinely wants everyone to have a great experience.

It was such a thoughtful gesture that made the experience even more enjoyable. If you're looking for more than just ice cream, Claws and Cream is the perfect spot to relax, play games, hang out with friends, and make some fun memories. I'll definitely be back! read more

I love this dessert shop. I was immediately warmly welcomed by the woman behind the counter. She was extremely helpful in describing different choices and making recommendations. The cute interior has lots of comfortable seating and a number of claw machines. I visited late one afternoon and chose an iced vanilla latte and a Biscoff ice cream. Once made, she delivered my treats to my table. The Vietnamese coffee and milk drink (more of a café au lait than a latte) was sweetened to my preference (100%) and was done perfectly. I must mention that I appreciated that the ice filled half the cup rather than completely filling it, allowing me more of the actual delicious drink to enjoy. The Biscoff ice cream was SO GOOD. Homemade soft serve vanilla ice cream layered with Biscoff crumbles and cookie butter, topped with a full cookie. Every spoonful was bursting with Biscoff flavor with an abundance of those crumbles. If you like Biscoff this will be one of your favorite desserts. I highly recommend this place; it makes the top tier of my favorite dessert shops. read more

Went in there on a Sat and kinda left really curious about the hype. The claw machines were not really stocked to let the user have a good chance to get the prizes. My family went in there with the expectation to drop a bit of money for the challenge and fun of getting some stuffies. Thing is, there was just not much to go after. Got some tokens and tried a few just to see if the claws were "loose" and sure enough they were just not where I would want them to be. Drinks were okay, I can see how it can be a cool place to maybe hang out but I am not sure I will be back, just not really my scene. read more

I'm so happy I came here. They are conveniently located in a private parking lot. Which is a huge bonus for me When you walk in, you see the front counter. You order there, pay and then, Tori, brings out your order. They had delicious Dubai chocolate cookies which were to die for! And then we ordered a strawberry shortcake and a Dubai chocolate ice cream. Tori, asked if I wanted her to add sliced strawberries to the Dubai chocolate one, but I declined. They have a free water station And the place has a good amount of claw machines with tons of Pokémon and hello kitty prizes. They also have a machine that converts your cash / card into tokens. (I won two things out of the machines) It was very crowded on a Sunday. I absolutely loved the furniture. They have these beautiful dark green chairs at the window (set up like a bar) so the atmosphere was pretty. They also have very comfortable seats and tables (if you can find one) They also love their students. They have signs everywhere saying if you are studying here is the WiFi, here's the password AND pointing where the outlets are so they can charge their devices. They also had a bunch of card and board games for people to play / use while here. It took maybe about 5-10 minutes for Tori to bring our order out. Which, to be honest that's pretty good considering they were extremely busy. Tori, brought out spoons and napkins. But if you need more they have the utensils / napkins and etc up by the free water station Ice cream was delicious I think it's kind of on the pricey side. Since it's soft served. But it was really good. I didn't get to try their amazing looking drinks. But, next time!! 5 stars for atmosphere 5 stars for service (Tori) 5 stars for taste They also have signs saying satisfaction guarantee. It states - (YOUR SATISFACTION IS VERY IMPORTANT TO US. IF YOU ARE UNSATISFIED WITH YOUR ORDER, SIMPLY LET A TEAM MEMBER KNOW AND WE WILL BE GLAD TO MAKE IT RIGHT ON THE SPOT. WE ARE HAPPY TO MAKE ADJUSTMENTS TO YOUR LIKING IN-STORE.

Pistachio Dubai cookie is good, but leans on sweet side when you get to the pistachio cream Pumpkin still reigns supreme in terms of texture and flavor. ====== Dubai pistachio cookie review Little on the sweet side, likely from the pistachio cream. Not a huge fan of the way it's packaged esp when it's fresh. The melted chocolate sticks to the packaging and it is difficult to remove from the bag without having the cookie rip apart. It tastes good, but I couldn't finish it because of the sweetness. Maybe if there was more salt on top? But if you have a sweet tooth, it is up your alley. read more

Cute and spacious place for claw machines w/ drinks & foods. Went here on Friday afternoon to get a cold drink (hot weather) not realizing that they have the buy one get one free so I got it. Easy parking since it has a size parking lot. Menu is big but easy to order with nice and friendly staff. As I wanted, I noticed that they have like a dozen of claw machines with varies type of toys. The seating area was HUGE overlooking the GG blvd with ceiling to floor glass window. Plus they do have seats outside the entrance too. After 25mins, I realized that they forgot my order since other people came after and they got their drinks and left. I asked and they did forgot my order. So after 30mins, I got my drinks...they did apologized for it. The drinks was okey, abit watering then I expected but did the cooling down from the heat so. read more

Came here on a late night for a sweet treat! Got their oreo ice cream to share with a few friends, and found a cool place to hang out. Aptly named, they have both a wide array of claw machines as well as ice cream and other treats available. You order at the counter, and service is fairly quick! I really liked the texture of their ice cream. I think that the brownie chunks were my favorite in that dessert. We snagged the backside bar area, and set up a quick game of Jenga while we finished off our dessert. We even tried the claw machine, to no success of our own, but we did see another couple walk out with a few prizes. Overall, we had a very pleasant experience here! Would come again if I was in the mood for ice cream! Plenty of seating! read more

Claws and Cream is a cute little dessert and claw shop. The ambience is very trendy brightly colored claw machines and a few tables and chairs. Most of the tables were taken so It would have been nice if they had more places to sit down. We came with some friends and their son thoroughly loved the claw machines. He won a few plushies- including this cute Totoro. The plushies were pretty good quality and whimsical. Only wished they had more claw machines- perhaps with some kirbies. As for the sweets, we got the Dubai chocolate Sunday, and it was fabulous! The ice cream is light and melts in your mouth. The thick pistachio cream and crispy noodles give an excellent texture flavor. What a decadent treat! Overall, a very cute place! The sundae is a must! read more

Great soft serve ice cream! I loved it here! I love the decor, the theme, and the service is excellent! The workers are all smiles and are so helpful! They gave us samples so we can find the right flavor! The ice cream is a bit expensive, but for me, I enjoyed the ice cream i got! We got the Dubai and strawberry cheesecake. Soooooo good! Yummy in the tummy! I loved the texture of the ice cream and the Dubai chocolate flavor was nicely put together. However, I loved the strawberry one more! My son loved the shovel spoons they gave us with our ice cream. Thats a really neat aesthetic. Will definitely be coming again when im in garden grove.

I had such an amazing experience at Claws and Cream. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted by the beautiful decor and ambiance. The colors popped and everything came together perfectly. The place felt welcoming, clean, and thoughtfully designed. The menu was super easy to read, prices were very reasonable, and there were so many great options to choose from. The staff was friendly and helpful, which made the experience even better. I tried the Dubai mochi cookie, the coconut pandan soft serve, and the banana matcha, and everything was a 10/10. I had heard they use high quality ingredients, so I had to give it a try, and it absolutely lived up to the hype. My favorite was definitely the coconut pandan soft serve. You honestly can't find this flavor anywhere else, and the texture was incredible. It was perfectly firm, yet soft and creamy at the same time. I genuinely had zero complaints. Everything exceeded my expectations, and I'll definitely be coming back. Highly recommend to everyone! read more

I got to try: Matcha+Taro Soft Serve (5/5): creamy and delicious! The soft serve texture is perfect! They used quality ingredients and you can tell. The matcha flavor complimented the taro flavor well. Durian Soft Serve with Smashed Avocado (5/5): it's hard to find a place that offer durian desserts, so I'm glad they have this.

My current go-to spot for dessert! The shop is nicely decorated and has fun board/card games, various claw machines, and plenty of seating. The staff are patient and nice, offering free samples and their own suggestions. I feel like I spend an hour or more here when I'm with my friends; they also have Wifi so it's good for studying. I looove the strawberry shortcake creation, an absolute 10/10. Vanilla soft serve with fresh cut strawberries, syrup, and actual strawberry shortcake. I don't have a big sweet tooth, but this always manages to hit the spot. The ice cream is really creamy but not too heavy, and the tang from the strawberries helps cut the richness. Biscoff ice cream creation was originally a seasonal option, but one of the staff members mentioned to me that it would be a permanent addition to the menu. Decadent cookie butter flavor that works very well with the vanilla soft serve and Biscoff crumbles- it also seems like there might be some caramel? This one was good but it was a bit dry, 8/10. I've tried the matcha and use soft serve on their own, and they're also very solid flavors. Matcha isn't too bitter or artificial, has a good balance. I've only had the durian soft serve as a free sample, and personally thought the taste was a bit too artificial for my liking. The bulgogi kimchi fries were very yummy, and the biscoff mini donuts had great texture and flavor. There's definitely some room for growth - mainly because it IS a small business, the staff members are usually busy so it might take a while for them to take your order. Most of the seasonal items were also out of stock whenever we went, which was a shame - especially when I couldn't try the browned butter pumpkin chocolate cookies.. Overall though, it's a great spot! Looking forward to see new menu items they come up with and fun seasonal items! read more

We were searching for ice cream dessert and something fun, and Claws & Cream checked both boxes. The claw games are part of the ambience and enjoyment, especially with kids, but they can definitely get pricey if you keep playing. Our niece was with us and she went on a run. Win after win, which made the whole visit even more memorable. They have house-made soft serve and the flavors sometimes change, along with signature desserts, coffee desserts, signature teas, and savory street snacks. Service with a smile while we got to sample some of the flavors. Unfortunately, they were out of one of the ingredients for the Dubai chocolate again, but I went with the coffee affogato and was happy with it. My girl got the seasonal pandan coconut soft serve with toasted almonds and toasted coconut (included), and it was really good. This was my second visit, and they've been out of something both times, but I've still enjoyed my second choice each visit. Located in a strip mall in the heart of Koreatown in Garden Grove, sharing parking with other businesses. Parking was fine, though we did find empty beer bottles in our parking spot, not their fault but worth mentioning. Overall, a fun dessert spot with good energy and solid treats, especially if you're coming with kids or just want dessert with a little entertainment. read more

Great service, delicious desserts, and fun family entertainment. We stopped by for dessert with my son and husband and really loved the claw machine concept. I wish I had recorded the claw game experience--I had Togepi securely in the claw at least nine times, but it kept mysteriously dropping while being carried to the chute. Because of this, it felt like the machine might be programmed so that a prize is only released after a certain amount (around $10) is spent. I don't think we'll be back to play, so maybe only dessert next time unless they improve the win ratio. read more

Cute concept of claw machines and food options. I'm actually really good at claw machines but couldn't win. I was able to catch the stuffed animals and lift them, but the claw seems pretty loose since they would drop right before making it to the hole. I did see other people win after a few attempts, moving the stuffed animals closer and closer to the hole. Most games are $1 each, some more expensive like the labubu machines. The ice cream is pretty pricey and not that great. The texture was kind of frost bitten. read more

Came here for an after dinner treat. They are known for their variety of house made soft serve. You can get them by itself with complementary free toppings of your choice or choose from one of their creations. Their creations include a dubai chocolate, oreo moonrock, and strawberry shortcake. They also had coffee and matcha affogato as well. For snacks they have their house made mochi pandan waffles. I got their durian soft serve with some frosted flakes and almonds. The soft serve was a good texture and wasn't overly sweet. It was good with the toppings I choose but honestly nothing crazy amazing. I did like that they had that durian flavors which other soft serve places do not have. Besides durian, they also had matcha, vanilla, and ube. I wanted to try their banana which they normally have but they did not have it the day I came in. I did try the vanilla which was pretty good. The girl behind the counter was really nice and made our order as fast as she could since there was a large group before us. So also came out to check on us and asked if we wanted water which was nice. The inside is cute and they have lots of claw machines to play. It was a cool place to hang out. read more
