My daughter wanted ice cream after the movies and we decided to give this place a try since it is in the same plaza and it was SO GOOD! We got the PB Chocolate and Nutella and we were both very happy with our choices. They are like $10 each but as a reward treat it is totally worth it! There was only one staff member but she was very kind and helpful! She noticed a customer had their dog outside and offered a cup of water for her pup which was so thoughtful!! We took our ice cream to go and it seems most people did but they do have high seating for you to enjoy your ice cream there . read more

Felt like a roll ice cream after seeing it on YouTube recently. This is one of the few places within a reasonable distance from home. It's located in a plaza off Lake Dr. next to an Edward's theater. We came on a weekend afternoon and the place was empty. There are some counter seating against the wall under some Edison string lights (which should be dusted by the way) There's a kiosk you can take credit card or Apple Pay, so orders have to be placed there too. The order took about 2 minutes to make. It's creamy, richer and firmer than store bought or scooped ice cream. Good taste and texture, but because of the roll gimmick, it's pricier than other places. At nearly $10. per order, it's not something I would get often, but fun for kids to watch and try. read more

My daughter and I were craving ice cream after we watched a movie at Edward Regal Cinema. It was one of those hot days. Ice cream Chef is located near the cinema which is ideal. The shop has both indoor and outdoor seating. It is very clean and has casual vibes. Their ice cream is a gourmet rolled type. You can customize your ice cream by choosing your base, fillers, and adding your favorite fruit or toppings. They have many great flavors. We chose the following: - Cookies & Cream with fresh banana and less whipped cream. It was rich and creamy, and very artistic. - Nutella with strawberry, banana, chocolate syrup and kitkat with less whipped cream It was artistic, colorful, rich and really delicious. The staff were very welcoming and sweet. We had a great experience at Ice Cream Chef. I will be back to try more flavors. read more

Rolled ice cream is hard to find nowadays and I'm glad there's a gem in the neighborhood. The flavor options are on the minimal side and so are the toppings, but they did a great job nailing the texture and flavor of the actual ice cream. It was super creamy, thick, and not too sweet. Service was quick and friendly. There are a couple of bar tops you can sit on inside to eat your sweet treat. I would return to try their other flavors. read more

Came here last December. This is located in the same plaza as the movie theaters. I love that they have the half and half option available. The ice cream takes about four minutes of preparation since they make it as you order. It's pretty cool to see how they make/mix them. I got the chocolate milk and vanilla milk. The flavors are good and tastes authentic. I can definitely feel the difference in texture since they mix and roll it up this way. It's not light and fluffy like regular ice cream. This is dense and packed in a good way. My mom got the taro and vanilla and she liked it. It's a bit pricey in my opinion, but I feel like most ice cream places are in this price range nowadays. I wish they have more flavors to choose from. If I'm in the area, I would consider trying it again. read more

Ordered one of their "Chef's Specials" since all the photos looked so enticing. You can order either at the separate kiosk on the wall or at the front register with the worker. My bf chose the "Nutella" ice cream which has a dash of whipped cream, banana slices, strawberry slices, drizzle of nutella, and a wafer stick. I would've liked to have seen a few more slices of the fruit rather than just 3 slices. Nonetheless, it was still delicious! The young guy working behind the counter was kind and inviting. There's glass so you can see them working on the ice cream and rolling it up. We were the only customers in there so our cup came out quickly. Rolled ice cream is always such a fun dessert! The inside is also really cute with fun, fresh modern vibes. Letters on the wall to move around string of light bulbs, and mirrors with quotes on them. Love the ambiance in here. read more

First time here since it was hot out and my daughter was craving rolled ice cream. Saw on Yelp their menu had happy hour specials but apparently I didn't get that discount even though I came in before 4pm... Ice cream was good but pricy for the amount they give. (Smaller amount, compared to the other pics I see on Yelp..) (I could've went for acai bowl instead...) It was empty inside w one worker and a couple eating inside. Place was clean and plenty of seats Overall, it was an okay experience. I wouldn't come back. read more

I honestly thought I wrote a review already, pardon my lapse in memory. Had the pleasure of trying their rolled ice cream and was excited to have a place for cold sweet treat mear the movie theater. Then Covid struck, lots of places closed and some didn't recover. It was great that they re-opened in April 2021. I won a year's worth of ice cream (one a month) playing their roulette. As if I needed more incentive to get ice cream. I've tasted their rocky road, s'mores, horchata, and, taro ice cream. Of course I like the rocky road the best. It's fun to watch how they mix and nudge the liquid cream on the cold slab until finally they roll the ice cream and slowly assemble them into a cup. When you choose from one of the Chef's Specials, the topping are already set. Otherwise you can make it your own by choosing your own base flavor for the cream and whatever toppings you like. read more

Me and Ice Cream Chef. A Love Story. Without further delay let's begin this review. Ice Cream Chef is a small ice cream shop located in a huge entertainment shopping plaza on Lakes Drive in West Covina. It's indoor design and layout was cute and spacious; atmosphere was relaxing. They have outdoor seats with a good view of the plaza. I was greeted by a very young male staff and he took my order. I ordered a Nutella Ice cream. And it's texture was thick and flavor was close to perfection. I like the whip cream, slice of strawberry and banana as toppings. A perfect slice of heaven on a warm sunny Saturday. Their prices were fair. Overall, I had a good experience and ice cream. I recommend this little shop and I say this wholeheartedly I shall return. read more

It's not bad, it's not great though. I'd say overrated, it's pretty much just like Icicles and not worth the price. But the staff was friendly and I LOVED the topping labels - cinnamon toes cranch and niller walfors cracked me up. It's this meme which I think originated with RANIBOW SPRIMKLE, and I just thought it was really funny. I think that brought it from 3 stars to 4 stars. But the service was 5 stars and my 11 year old cousin loved the ice cream, and we did go for her, so mission success I guess! I just personally wouldn't buy it myself. Lucky for me, her dad (aka my uncle) paid for us so that was cool for me! The complex is nice. Lots of parking. I'd assume that's due to the movie theater mainly (Edwards Cinemas) I'm sure my cousin would give it 5 stars if she used Yelp! I mean, rolled ice cream is cool and usually a hit with the kids. Me personally, I'm cool with the tubs from Costco. In short, no complaints here but also it was nothing exceptional. read more

Tip: make sure you use the register in the wall to place your order if paying with a credit card.

I was running an errand in the area and stopped in for an ice cream treat. Located in The Lakes Mall complex you might not know it's there as it's not very visible from the street (it is in the same area as Edwards Cinema). This is a rolled ice cream place so it takes a few minutes to mix, pour, and roll the ice cream. They have several "chef specials" which are in-house concoctions that are pictured on their menu board. Or you can create your own. I chose one of the specialties: "coffee". This ice cream treat consisted of rolled coffee ice cream with chocolate wafers, sprinkled chocolate graham cracker crumbs, chocolate and caramel syrup, and some whipped cream. The ice cream rolls had a fairly strong coffee flavor which I enjoyed and all the toppings were sweet and delicious. Next time I'd ask for a little more of the syrups (that's just me and my sweet tooth). Customer service was exceptionally cheerful and friendly and the prices seem to be in line with other rolled ice cream places. My verdict in a word: Yum! read more

I was craving some dessert after dinner and decided to search for a place that served mint chocolate chip ice cream. I stumbled to this place and assumed it would be no more than $7 according to some of the old menu pictures. I'm not sure if it's inflation or simply outrageous pricing, but this small cup was $9.31. It's not gourmet ice cream and it wasn't something out of the ordinary that I would pay theme park prices. Rolls? The Asian community has been doing the ice cream rolls for a cool minute now. Nothing special. Not $9.31 special. I would have been much more happy stopping by a local Rite Aid and picking up the good ol' delicious Thrify Brand Ice Cream for less than $6. Never again. read more

We came on a Thursday night around 8:30, and the wait was long. There were 2 small groups in front of us, and we waited about 15 minutes in line and then another 20 for the ice cream. They had one person taking orders and another making the ice cream. Mint chip: Came with lots of chocolate chips, a pocky, and some whipped cream. The mint flavor was good, but mine melted pretty quickly. Rocky road: Good chocolate ice cream with almonds and a very burnt marshmallow. The marshmallow was very bitter, but other than that, the ice cream was good. Overall, ice creams were good in flavors, but mine already melted quite a bit, as I was waiting for them to make our second one. And they were so backed up that they gave us the marshmallow burnt instead of remaking another one. I probably won't return because I don't know if the ice cream was worth the price and long wait. read more

A gentleman finally took my order he seemed very overwhelmed I felt rushed I paid and waited another 10 min for my coffee they forgot to give me my dessert so i had to wait again finally received it. I found a seat to try everything Coffee was okay I ordered a salted banana cream latte was very strong coffee tasting no banana I also ordered a white raspberry cheesecake that was good Overall I don't think I would go back it's a bit overpriced for what I got and I completely understand that it was busy but customer service was very lacking

Pane E Vino

Pane E Vino delivered one of the best Italian dining experiences I've had in a long time. From the…read moremoment I sat at the bar, the staff was attentive, welcoming, and genuinely focused on making sure I was satisfied throughout the evening. I started with an incredible appetizer featuring several varieties of fried mushrooms paired with red wine--absolutely delicious and full of flavor. For my entrée, I enjoyed the shrimp pasta with white wine sauce, which was perfectly prepared and tasted authentic and fresh. To finish the meal, I had the apple crust dessert topped with vanilla ice cream, and it was the perfect ending to an outstanding dinner. The food, service, and atmosphere were all exceptional. Honestly, for a moment I felt like I was sitting in a restaurant in Italy. I highly recommend Pane E Vino and will definitely be returning. Five stars all the way!

Well, okay. We were there and we were hungry. It's a small place with big attitude. Great vibes, low lighting, cozy seating. We sat down and browsed through the menu. The server came over and said he'd move us to a bigger table. THANK YOU! We finally decided on food. We all had crab cakes appetizers. I had the spicy honey pepperoni pizza and Cesar salad. Coworker had the peso buco with risotto, and the other had the lasagna. We had some fresh rosemary rolls while we waited. Everyone was very satisfied with their food. The girls decided to have desert which we all shared. Tiramisu and cannolis. I don't care for tiramisu so I just had a little taste. I did enjoy a cannoli. The server was super friendly and he knew how to sell you on anything on that menu. I would make the drive to visit here again.

Bun Street is…read morewell-reviewed and has a big following, so this wasn't a hard choice, although there is a small Hawaiian spot right near it that I'll have to try. Almost made it a Hawaiian day, but next time. So yeah, it's in a large strip mall with lots of parking. Inside is very spacious and lively, as advertised. Lots of mounted flat screens and plenty of neon signage to remind you that they also serve cold brews here. Definitely a happening spot for Dodgers games for sure. Menu is extensive with lots of options for burgers and sides. Took the recommendation from my awesome server and ordered the following: - Stinkin' Bun Burger - 9/10: yo, this was incredible. Brioche bun was perfectly crisped, patty was thick and full of flavor. Loved the garlic cheese spread. Just brought it to another level. Well-balanced and not too garlicky. Just delicious. Pro tip: Mon-Fri are their lunch specials. So you can get a side and a drink with your burger of choice at a reduced price. Otherwise, everything is a la carte. So yes, a good time was had by all!

Their sauces are good, and I tried everything, they do a lot of things decently. The flautas I prefer over the taquitos, and they give a lot of guacamole, but I'm just okay with their guacamole. I like their shredded beef, and especially their chicken - I had it as a cucamonga burrito which also had guac, mhmm good burrito. Their taco salads aren't good cause there's no rice, and the salad/lettuce itself isn't great. Tried chile verde, carnitas, asada, and lengua - all were just ok. But their hard taco - so greasy, but the lettuce/cheese match, pretty good. Menudo has plentiful meats, but just okay for me. As for their sauces, they are all decent, though nothing stands out in that regard.

I'd recommend eating them right away since they get soggy fast. I'd also order a la carte, as I wasn't a fan of the rice and beans (too salty for my taste). The burrito was good, and I'd probably get it again. The flautas use the same shredded beef as the tacos and also got soggy quickly, so again, best to eat them right away. I wasn't a fan of the salsa though, but I had king taco's green salsa which went great with the tacos.

For a carniceria, that was very frustrating and unexpected. Customers come here expecting butcher services, especially when requesting specific cuts.

The quality may be good when service is available, but the lack of availability and communication really impacted my experience.

I bought the: - Tofu pudding/dessert tofu/dou hua with brown sugar on the side - Delicious and silky! The brown sugar was light and added just enough sweetness to complement the tofu. - Taro buns (5 ct) - This is the best taro bun my family and I ever had. The breadskin is so light and fluffy. The taro paste filling was not overly dense nor sweet. You can really taste the taro in the filling. - Organic scallion buns (6 ct) - This is the best scallion bun my family and I ever had. We could taste the scallion flavor without it being too strong. The bun was a touch denser than the taro bun. - Meat and veggie buns - The meat and veggie filling was delicious and not too saltym. The veggies in the filling still has a crunch to them (unlike buns I've tried from other places). The bun itself was light and not too dense. - Unsweetened soy milk - The soy milk was light and the perfect consistency. It isn't thick or grainy like some other soy milks can be. - Tofu jerky - Flavorful, but not too salty. Great pairing with a bowl of rice! - Zongzi (Taiwanese style) - Delicious and light. Also not too salty or rich. The shop itself is small, but very clean and organized. The shop owner is so cute and enthusiastic about all of her products. She shared how to best store them since she doesn't use preservatives and how to heat them. There is a handwritten menu in Chinese on a board to the side of the refrigerated section. The refrigerator doors also had photos of the item with the name in English and Chinese, and the price. The non-refrigerated part of the store has shelves with sauces you could use to prepare/cook your tofu. Cash and credit cards (MasterCard and Visa) accepted, although there is a 5% charge for using credit card. They're located at the very end of Front St (dead end). They're in the brick building with no signage/store name. If the door is locked during the posted business hours, just ring the doorbell and the owner will open the door for you. Parking is shared with other shops on this street. With the flow of customers coming and going, I never had any issues finding a spot.

Parking lot was pretty small only had what seemed about 12 parking spots. Walk in and the interior is fairly small and the way people have to line up is kinda awkward. The line curves to where people are standing in line right in front of the sitting area (cramped if busy). To my surprise (not really) all the pastries were GONE. I didn't get to try anything (I went around noon) so I am bummed! The young lady took my order and she was very nice. There was only two people in front of me before I ordered but honestly my wait time in total was about 5 minutes. The drink I ordered was the hold cream w/ praline top. Kinda embarrassed to say I drank it DOWN before I got to my next destination... The coffee was not strong at all and the cream was a perfect balance. This choice is good if you do not enjoy super strong coffee and want something on the lighter tasting side. Keep in mind that this is a latte so its more milk than anything. My total came out to $6.50 since they currently have their soft opening promotion of 10% off drinks. I hope to try the matcha next!

Going from a large for $7.55 to a small for $10 is absolutely crazy and makes no sense from a customer perspective. What's even worse is that the quality seems to have gone down at the same time. The drink is smaller, doesn't taste as good as it used to, and costs significantly more. If you're going to raise prices that dramatically, the quality should at least stay the same or improve not get worse. I used to enjoy coming here, but it's hard to justify paying nearly $10 for a drink that's smaller and lower quality than before. Very disappointing and feels like a poor way to treat loyal customers.

Interior / Atmosphere The shop itself looks bright, clean, and inviting. It has big shop signs, sofas, and a few cute spots where you can take pictures.
