    Cookie Monster
    Isaac J.

    This is a new location that popped up here in chula vista recently. I have been to previous iceskimos like the one in kearny mesa and convoy. I have to say overall the boba, puffles and matcha is great as usual. I ordered the cookie monster puffle and i really enjoyed it ! They really do need to redo the interior of this location because it feels like a warehouse for some reason. Stripped paint, outdated chairs, and no charging stations. The service was exceptional and the employees were very attentive with our orders. But overall the desserts are good as usual !

    Ube shaved snow kids size with toppings
    Louna N.

    First time here. Was recommended to try this spot from a friend. Got kids size which was a decent amount of shaved snow with toppings. Jasmine milk tea (tried a friend's) had strong flavor and reminded me of the drink. Ube tasted like a light taro flavor. Toppings were mostly self service (they have you request for cookies dough, banana, cheesecake, boba)--enjoyed the almond jelly and mochi. You pay once they weigh your shaved ice. It ranged around $7-8 depending on how much you get. Ambiance was casual with r&b playing in the background.

    The perfect place to fulfill your sweet tooth. Iceskimo has amazing cold and warm desserts that will make you want to come back. I enjoyed the cookies and cream kids size ice. My husband got the ube soft serve with a waffle, mochi and crushed up Oreos. Yum! The employee was super helpful and friendly. She answered all questions we had about the menu. It's a cute space to come enjoy a sweet bite.

    This is such a great dessert spot ! Located in the shopping center next to HomeGoods and across from Otay Ranch mall. It is beautiful inside , clean with great seating options . I ordered the Tiger Soft Serve! It was delicious!!!!! I highly recommend !! The service was great and quick! Tip: I would ask for lots of napkins or an extra larger cup . When eating the soft serve it began to overflow and was a bit messy until I made it home.

    Ube Vanilla Oreo soft serve

    Nice little sweet treat dessert spot! The place is clean and aesthetic inside, making it a pleasant place to hang out. I especially love that they offer matcha and ube options. We got the ube and vanilla soft serve with brown sugar boba and it was good.

    The taiyaki filled fish were tasty, came with 5 different flavors: cheese, mochi, red bean, oreo, Nutella. With a purchase of 5....you get mini soft serve for $3.50 each. Service was okay. But the store was super hot inside, even their indoor plants were wilting. The design is cute but the furniture tables are cheaply made.

    Vietnamese iced coffee
    Valeria V.

    My husband and I tried this place for the first time today. We tried the Vietnamese coffee and the waffle with Nutella. The Vietnamese coffee was okay. It wasn't too strong and the flavor was okay. I recommend the waffle with Nutella. The waffle was good and crispy. We got the Nutella filling but it would have tasted good with or without the filling. Service was pretty good too. The worker was a really nice young man and very accommodating.

    TIGGER WAFFLE

    Really yummy spot! First time here, lots of options. I got the Tiger Waffle. It has bubble waffle, boba, oreos, vanilla soft serve ice cream with brown sugar syrup.

    Ube Mochi Creation
    Janelle D.

    The young lady working was sweet and fast! We ordered a pineapple smoothie, the ube mochi creation, and a mini vanilla soft serve with sprinkles. Unless you go in starving I suggest sharing the bubble waffle creations with someone. Its a lot of ice cream and the waffle is a decent size too! I was actually shocked by how much you got. Definitely worth $10.95! We'll be back to try the affogato

    Ube mochi waffle
    Jessica D.

    The ube mochi waffle goes crazy!!! I tried it for the first time - it satisfied my sweet treat craving instantly! The ube flavor is so smooth and creamy, the waffle is very crispy from being fresh off the iron, the Oreo bits were so crunchy and added a nice texture, and the mochi was the perfect chewy bite to bring it all together! I'd recommend splitting this with someone because it can get really sweet really quickly. The shop itself was cute and aesthetic and had lots of tables and seats. Good lighting too. The staff was friendly and welcoming and served my waffle with a smile. They also do punch cards so be sure to ask for one when you're there! I will be coming back to try their other waffle creations!

    Nutella Taiyaki and Coffee Affogato (w/ mochi & almond) - DELISH!
    Elizabeth H.

    I was delightfully surprised with my visit here today. I was craving an affogato, and it was on their menu! I wasn't a fan of the chocolate chips so the server suggested I sub with mochi topping instead. And it was by far one of the best affogatos I've had in a long time. The shaved snow was actually better than regular ice cream! Amazing!!! It's a must try! Will definitely be back.

    One of my kids fave spots when they want something cold but not ice cream. They love the shaved ice here and all the toppings. Pretty self explanatory, you pick your size and the flavor of shaved ice... then you pack on your toppings! They have shaved ice, boba drinks, soft serve with boba and taiyaki too! The taiyaki filled with fresh banana is my fave treat here! The staff is always nice here. The space is always clean and never too busy. All in all, a great place to go for a sweet treat!

    I had their Strawberry Matcha Affogato yesterday(see picture) and it was delicious. Yum! My kids love love love their desserts and always ask to come here. The staff are friendly. They keep the restaurant clean. They sell drinks, waffles, soft serve, and snow. You can build your own snow. Pick a size, flavor and add toppings. They have plenty of toppings to choose from. They even sell Taiyaki Japanese fish-shaped waffles. Oh, they offer stamp cards. You can earn a stamp for every $5 spent. Collect 10 stamps and get $5 off on your next visit. I'll be coming back here again to try other Affogato and waffle creation flavors.

    Do they also participate in the rewards program? I have a stamp card from the convoy location and not sure if its transferable.

    Yes stamps work at both locations!

    Are they open yet?

    Soft opening 2/1/20. Not sure when it fully opens.

It was easy to give them my date and time needed. Day of the event, they arrived at perfect timing when we were cutting the cake. They found the place just fine. The churros were being fried fresh for my hungry guests to consume. Now I've had my fair share of churros and I gotta say, these were the best I've ever had. Hot, fresh and not keto friendly. Worth every calorie. The guys making them told me to try one with a scoop of ice cream and this bomb homemade strawberry sauce they bring. Life changing!!! All the guests at my party said this was the coolest and best thing ever. Honestly, you're not gonna find better than these guys. Churrolicious is amazing and sure to make your event 10x better. Thanks guys!!! Can't wait to book you for future events.

    I really hate leaving negative reviews, but after my third visit here with the same disappointing…read moreexperience, I felt it was necessary. There's an employee.. someone with short hair who works Sundays who is consistently rude and unapproachable. I honestly can't tell if it's a man or a woman but short men haircut wearing glasses ( I don't want to get the wrong person in trouble) but either way, they never smile, avoid eye contact with anyone walking in, and make the whole environment feel tense and awkward. It feels like they genuinely dislike being there, and it shows in their attitude. I came in at 5:45 PM on a Sunday, and just like the previous times, the energy was off. It's uncomfortable enough that I've decided not to come back. When a pattern like this repeats, it's no longer a bad day, it's just who the person is. If you're going to be in a customer-facing role, at least try to make people feel welcome. If that's too much, maybe it's time to consider a different job. I'm not even asking for them to be nice l, at least just acknowledge someone walked in to the store?? I do like their ice cream though and that was the only reason why I considered going back until today. Realmente odio dejar reseñas negativas, pero después de mi tercera visita con la misma experiencia decepcionante, sentí que era necesario. Hay un empleado... alguien con el cabello corto que trabaja los domingos, que es constantemente grosero y poco accesible. Honestamente no puedo decir si es hombre o mujer, pero tiene corte de hombre corto y usa gafas (no quiero meter en problemas a la persona equivocada), pero de cualquier forma, nunca sonríe, evita el contacto visual con cualquiera que entra, y hace que todo el ambiente se sienta tenso e incómodo. Parece que genuinamente no le gusta estar ahí, y se nota en su actitud. Entré a las 5:45 PM un domingo, y al igual que las veces anteriores, la energía estaba apagada. Es lo suficientemente incómodo como para decidir no volver. Cuando este patrón se repite, ya no es un mal día, es simplemente cómo es la persona. Si vas a estar en un puesto de atención al cliente, al menos intenta que las personas se sientan bienvenidas. Si eso es mucho pedir, tal vez sea momento de considerar otro trabajo. Ni siquiera estoy pidiendo que sean amables, ¡solo que al menos reconozcan cuando alguien entra a la tienda!

They advertised accepting all payment types, but when I looked at the amount before paying, I noticed they were about to charge me $27 for just five tacos. This seemed incorrect, and when I brought it to their attention, the staff's response was not helpful. They tried saying an 8% charge justifies the amount but the receipt said $20? My math wasn't incorrect nor was I in the wrong and the man behind the grill acted passive aggressive offering me the order for free in a digusting way . I decided to walk away. I hope they can improve their communication and pricing clarity.
