This. Place. Is. Adorable!…read more We specifically drove here after a staycation in Newport Beach and we so were glad we did! Upon entering, we were greeted right away and were asked if we had any questions. My daughter immediately saw the cat and said she wanted that one. She chose the Milk & Oreo gelato as the base and asked if she could get it in a cone. Within minutes, it was in her hand and was devoured minutes after that and I was only able to get a small bite! It was definitely tasty! Will have to get one for myself next time. When we went, there were so many families coming into the store and everyone got a warm welcome. The locals love this place and so do we.

If you're looking for a dessert that is almost too cute to eat, Eiswelt Gelato is an absolute…read moremust-visit. I stopped by and had to try the "Alien Baby" (Baby Yoda) cone, and it did not disappoint! The shop is famous for its handcrafted character scoops. Seeing the staff transform a regular scoop of gelato into a masterpiece with ears and eyes in just a few minutes is like watching edible art come to life.  I went with a green base to keep the Baby Yoda theme authentic. They offer a few great green options like:  * Pistachio * Matcha I went with pandan it's a coconut flavor and the prices are amazing $5.50

I've been following Ant's Ice Cream since I first tried them at the night market at Asian Garden…read moreMall. The night market is only during summer time so i was so excited when i heard that they were actually opening their own location! My mom and I been hooked since then on their lychee, Jackfruit, and durian ice cream. The reason why we liked it is because the flavors are rare and hard to find anywhere else. Also, I believe their ice cream is made with really fresh ingredients. You can really taste the freshness and flavor. My mom is extremely annoyingly picky but she actually likes the ice cream from Ant's a lot. I also tried the original flavors and I would highly recommend the strawberry but mostly the pistachio. It was so delicious.! I came for ice cream but the smell of the fresh brewing tea smelled too good to pass up. I tried the original milk tea and all I have to say is wow. You can really taste the strong tea flavor in the drink (which I really like and is usually really picky about). I will definitely be back to try other flavors! I love the inside as there's actually seating and tables inside and outside to mingle with friends. Really rare to see that these days. Customer service was friendly and great. They were patient and allowed us to try samples.

I went here today because I was interested in trying out Durian-flavored ice cream. As someone who…read moreis Vietnamese and grew up in a Vietnamese home, eating durian is one of the best fruits that tastes good despite the smell. I found this place on Instagram, and because of the constant Asian flavors featured in those ads. I quickly got intrigued and decided to drive here before I started work as a tour guide. I tried to pick the Pandan mung bean ice cream and the avocado flavours, but because of its popularity and with Father's Day a few days ago. It was all sold out. I can really tell that this place sells the best Asian ice cream, especially classic flavors. Some of the ice cream flavors had Vietnamese names to them because some of them are popular in Vietnam and in overseas Vietnamese households. I ordered the banana split because it's my first time eating it. I can also customize my own banana split. I picked Pandan and grass jellies. I also picked black sesame since it almost tastes like chocolate or whey. I also picked vanilla and I also got durian. There was also chocolate drizzle and whipped cream. The banana split tasted so good. This place also has good wifi. There's also two tablets you can use to order what you want. .

The staff were prompt taking your orders as well as making your order. Their waffle shell tacos were made fresh and comes in different colors. I'm not certain if you can choose a specific color but I don't see why they won't. We ordered: UBE ICE CREAM- Ube ice cream topped with whipped cream and drizzled with Ube PISTACHIO ICE CREAM - pistachio ice cream topped with whipped cream and crushed pistachios VIETNAMESE COFFEE - shot of espresso ice cream topped with whipped cream and drizzled with condensed milk. It was on the sweeter side (duh?! Lol) but everything taste delicious. Prices were also a bit on the high end. I would say portion of each other can be shareable. Overall, I had a wonderful time and enjoyed our desserts.

SomiSomi!!! Hmmm where to start??…read more My go-to order? Cookies & Cream soft serve with Oreo crumbles, coconut flakes, and Nutella at the bottom. If happiness had a flavor, I'm pretty sure this would be it. The ah-boong cone is already amazing on its own, but adding that Nutella surprise at the bottom feels like finding money in your jacket pocket except better, because it's chocolate yay.. Everyone is incredibly friendly, patient, and always willing to explain the menu.. Parking at this location is surprisingly easy, which is a "W" given the OC life.. There aren't a ton of tables outside. But honestly, that's part of the charm. You'll see people hanging out.. chatting..standing with their ice cream or eating it in their cars which is the full immersive experience Inside seating is available, but when it gets busy, the place has a fun energy with people coming and going, all united by the pursuit of excellent soft serve. If you've never been, do yourself a favor and go. And if you're wondering what to order, Cookies & Cream with Oreo, coconut flakes, and Nutella is a life decision you probably won't regret.

If you're a first timer, definitely get the milk flavor so that you can customize with the variety of toppings that they have. Their taiyaki is also a must-have and they also have a variety of fillings, like custard and nutella! You can get the soft serve in the taiyaki (kind of like an ice cream cone) or the soft serve in a cup with the taiyaki on top! The service at the Garden Grove location is amazing and while the shop itself is small, they do have seating outside if you're looking to sit down and enjoy your sweet treat!

We ordered three things; mint chocolate chip, rose, and milk and cereal. All with a bubble waffle cone. The service was disappointing, the guy who worked there seemed like he didn't care and it was just another job. No life to him and was just rude about asking the code for the bathroom. The mint and chip is basic. Nothing too much about it. My kids like it, so I got it. Average 3/5. The rose ice cream tasted like a rose, it was pretty good and very floral. The disappointing part is I was hoping the ice cream would be shaped like a rose as depicted on the picture. Nope, just a scoop and left it as is. 5/5 for taste and 0/5 for presentation. The milk and cereal one was actually pretty good. Especially with Frosted Flakes in it. It literally taste like cereal. 5/5. I would give it a higher star if the service complimented it and th presentation of the rose ice cream did.

Tsun Scoops is an anime-inspired ice cream shop that focuses on creative flavors, fun presentation,…read moreand a playful atmosphere. We walked into a space that stands out immediately with its themed decor, character designs, and little details that make it feel different from a typical ice cream spot. The shop has a strong personality without relying only on the theme, making it a place that works for both anime fans and anyone looking for unique desserts. The interior is compact but thoughtfully designed, with colorful artwork and small touches that reward a closer look. The biggest highlight is the rotating ice cream selection. The flavors go beyond the usual options, with combinations like ube, sea salt, yuzu orange, and other seasonal creations that give the menu a more adventurous feel. We appreciated that they offer samples before choosing, since the variety makes it hard to decide. The flavors are creative but still approachable, and the dairy-free options are a nice addition for people looking for alternatives. The ube had a rich, earthy sweetness, and the yuzu orange offered a bright, citrusy contrast that kept the tasting experience interesting. The texture of the ice cream was smooth and creamy, and the flavors were well balanced without relying on excessive sweetness. The presentation is also part of the experience. The anime-inspired names, cute designs, and collectible stickers that come with the scoops add a fun element that makes the visit feel more memorable. We noticed a mix of fans and families enjoying the space, and the overall energy of the shop is welcoming and playful. The small details, from the branding to the way the staff interacted with customers, made the visit feel more personal and engaging. Service was friendly and welcoming, and the staff were helpful when explaining the different flavors or letting us try options before committing. They were patient with questions and offered thoughtful recommendations based on what we were in the mood for. The space itself is on the smaller side, so seating can be limited and it may be better suited for grabbing a scoop and enjoying it nearby rather than spending a long time inside. The turnover moves quickly, and the staff manage the flow efficiently. Tsun Scoops is a great dessert stop if you are looking for something more unique than a standard ice cream shop. The combination of creative flavors, anime-inspired atmosphere, and small personal touches makes it feel like a place built around the experience as much as the ice cream itself, offering a visit that is both playful and satisfying.
