    Super yummy ice cream. All our deserts tasted soooo good. A+. Staff is always nice and [[HIGHLIGHT]]this location is always clean and bright.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Very cool place for desert.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    Permanently closed?!?

    Closed!!!! Very sad to show up tonight and find they are out of business. No more exterior signage so it looks permanent.

    Banana and capn crunch
    Kevin T.

    We were craving something to cool us off after the beach and Creamistry definitely hit the spot! I had the regular banana + cap'n crunch mixed in and it was delicious :) It was my first time so seeing the liquid nitrogen quickly turn the cream into ice cream was really cool to see. Because of the quick cooling, the cereal pieces were still crispy and not soggy at all! Overall a good first taste and ready to be back to test other flavor combos! Cheers, Creamistry!

    Sea Salt Caramel Crunch, chocolate ice cream
    Kathryn C.

    Creamistry is worth the calories! We went here for the first time this evening. My husband got chocolate ice cream with chocolate sauce on top, and I got the sea salt caramel crunch. Both were excellent. The taste and texture were perfect. I was especially pleased at how great the whipped cream on mine tasted. I don't usually order whipped cream, but it was standard with what I ordered, so I didn't ask them to not include it. It tasted very fresh and real, not artificial. The young woman who served us was very friendly and helpful. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The inside of the store has lots of clean seating, and the line moved quickly, even though it was pretty crowded at times.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I can't wait to return!

    Fruity pebbles

    Somehow not-too-sweet, had a well-balanced fruitiness, and very creamy. The texture of cereal came through without being mushy and it was quite smooth from the nitrogen. Ice cream didn't melt quickly either. Recommend!

    Cool concept, but pretty disappointed by how different the final product looked compared to the picture. I ended up getting the signature Cookie Monster, but it came out nothing really resembling it other than a faint blue color. Taste wise it was nothing to rave about. It tasted like sweetened heavy whipping cream with some chunks of cookies. Other than the cool smoke from the liquid nitrogen, it was overpriced for what I was expecting.

    Well I only came here once with my friend Sharmila and [[HIGHLIGHT]]I feel this place was cool.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]There was not a lot of people only like three people eating their ice cream.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]It is pretty chill and clean environment.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The ice cream was like $12.

    Visited Creamistry while in LA on vacation. I was excited to see that they have vegan base and vegan options since I have a dairy allergy. They have two vegan base options--cashew and coconut milk. I got the vegan cashew milk base with matcha flavor. I hadn't tried matcha ice cream before, and this definitely made me a fan! It was very sweet, and I couldn't finish the whole thing (however, we did go out for pizza right beforehand, so that's probably why!). The process of making the ice cream is definitely cool to watch, but it does make the process slower. It also is a lot more steps than at a regular ice cream place, and this stressed me out at first a little with my allergy (which is severe). However, they use a fresh whisk and bowl with each order, which lowers the chance of any cross-contamination. I did have to ask the person specifically making mine if he could get a fresh ice cream scoop, and he did. Overall, I found it to be safe for people with allergies and would return!

    Service is terrible. I asked several different employees to please clean a table so me and my family can sit and eat my ice cream. I was told to move to another table or If I want I can clean it myself with the disinfectant wipes they had at the end of the counter.

    Sea Salt Caramel Crunch
    Ann G.

    The Sea Salt Caramel Crunch is my new favorite. I love the contrast of the crunchy waffle cone bits against the creaminess of the ice cream. Being able to use rewards points to pay for it was a bonus. Creamistry is always a nice sweet way to finish after having a meal at Gen BBQ next door.

    *Pandemic edition* I really shouldn't be eating ice cream since I haven't been able to return to a regular workout routine BUT who can say No to a free birthday scoop? I've been to this Creamistry location many times and it definitely gets busy but I've always had fairly quick service. Due to CoVid I really wanted to make sure I didn't come during peak hours so I arrived on a Tuesday at 1:30pm and it was entirely empty! I'm a sucker for seasonal flavors. FOMO? Maybe. I ordered the pumpkin spice and my mom ordered the strawberry. I was pleasantly surprised at the pumpkin spice flavor. It was subtle snd not over-bearing. You can't go wrong with strawberry. The girl who helped me was friendly snd told me I had a reward for another free scoop on a later date. Really?? There goes my diet ...

    You can never go wrong with Creamistry! [[HIGHLIGHT]]This location is well kept and is relatively more spacious.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The employees are super patient and give solid recommendations. Of course the ice cream is delicious, and creamy. I love the customization options. Very happy that they have this in Torrance :)

    Who doesn't love ice cream? Well this place does made to order ice cream using liquid nitrogen. You can choose whatever you like from their list of flavors and personalize your own treat. They also have their signature creations menu if you don't want to think too hard lol. It is a bit pricey considering these lil scoops were 8 dollars each. But hey your paying for that liquid nitrogen show

Not only the best in the SBBC South Bay Beach Cities...

What could make Handel's better??? Expand locations for convenience. Of course the usual x-factors of easy parking, no-wait short lines quick to serve, indoor ice cream parlor seating and the less-than-justified "lower prices, bigger portions" argument everyone has with every food vendor that exists... BUT truth be told, one of the reasons why I rank Handel's so high is the "Value" of the pricing and quantity compared to their peers competition along with the quality.

    I come to this location all the time but never really pay attention to the pricing…read more The other day, I asked the girl at the counter if the small is the smallest size they have and she told me that there is a scoop that is at $2.50. I think, great since my elderly Dad is diabetic and shouldn't have a lot of ice cream, so I went with that but in a waffle cone, she said that would be $3.50. I said that's fine, I will have one in flavor A and the other one in flavor B, total came to $7.35 And I asked her to put the ice cream cone in a cup, so it would be easier for him to eat in the car as it was extremely hot that day, and I don't want it to drip all over the car. When she gave me the ice cream, it was both flavor in one cone. I told her I wanted 2 separate cone instead of all in one. And then she said it would be another $7, I was in a hurry, so didn't really put too much thoughts into it, and just charge it. So now I look at my charges, so it turns out the same serving, one is at $7.35 and the other is $7. When I get the ice cream, I asked her, so there nothing that is smaller than this. She said there is, but not in a waffle cone, it will be extra with a waffle cone. So I asked $2.50 in a regular cone and additional $3.50 for the waffle cone? She said yes!! I am still confused as to whether they have a smaller serving than small and how much it is. I check on the pricing people posted here and don't see a $2.50/$3.50 smaller size showing. It remains a mystery to me, and I really wanted to know as it will be a hot summer, both my elderly parents, who are diabetic, would probably asked for ice cream, and I really don't want them to have a small each on their own, since it is still a decent size and they don't like the same flavor, so they can't really share a small one.

Line moves fast, though. Mr. Universe: 10/10. Omggg soooooo good. This is one of the best flavors I've ever had anywhere. Malted cookies n cream: 9.5/10. So close to being the best flavor but definitely the second best. Hokey pokey: 8/10. Really solid flavor but still really good. Parfait: 7/10. I had high hopes but was a bit disappointed. The matcha ice cream was good, but by the time I got to the vanilla at the bottom, it was all melted. The rice balls were really good though I normally don't care for rice balls. There was matcha jelly but there were maybe only four pieces but I would have liked more. The whipped cream did nothing to add to the parfait - it's just a basic whipped cream out of a can from what I can tell. The red bean is too sweet. I would have loved to try peach but didn't since I wanted to try all these first. No samples, FYI. You can get it in a cup or cone, but cones are an extra charge. Parking is in a small lot with lots of other great places. Note that they're closed Sundays.

Chestnut wheel cake- this was warm but the cake part of it is also soooo dry. Overall the chestnuts are delicious but the execution of the items is so poor.
