    I have tried their gelatos a couple of times and they are really good . The service is great . You can ask them for a little sample before ordering your gelato. Located inside oakridge mall right next to children play area makes it very convenient to have a gelato and then go to the play area . Recently they introduced the Dubai strawberry chocolate which I haven't tried yet but it looked very tempting. They have a lot of variety to choose from so don't forget to try next time you are there

    Dubai chocolate was delectable; the combination of strawberries, chocolate and crushed peanuts were on point. I also tried the lotus and pistachio gelato, but the lotus is my favorite out of the two. This location is located inside the mall, right next to Living Spaces and UFC Fit. Limited indoor seating. Good customer service.

    The portions are so worth it! The staff was very friendly and patient as I was sampling and raking forever to order. We were pleasantly surprised when we saw how much she put in the cup and realized we could have shared a medium cup. The flavors are not too strong but decent imo. It's a nice treat if you're tired from walking in the mall!

    This shop is located in Oakridge mall, and they have many interesting flavors. I tasted the pistachio, which when really good, is my favorite flavor; theirs was just okay. I had the Ferraro rocher and strawberries & cream. Of the two, the strawberries & cream was sweeter and the flavors stronger; I much preferred it over the Ferraro rocher, which surprised me. My husband had an flavor that combined almonds, caramel, and something else I cannot remember, but it is light brown/beige in color. He liked it, but I thought it had a strange aftertaste. I like his second flavor much more, a pomegranite & I think ricotta combo. So, it seems in future, I ought to stick with the flavors that include fruit.

    My friend and I were really indecisive on what flavors to get so we asked for a lot of samples and the employee was super nice helping us figure out what we wanted and explaining the flavors to us. We ended up getting like four flavors and it was pretty yummy. This is a personal thing but I think I got too much gelato because by the time I got to my second flavor, the creaminess was getting a bit much for me. Next time, I'd just get one flavor or maybe take it home and eat it later ahahah.

    Super underrated spot inside of Oakridge Shopping Center. It's not too busy and the workers are pretty quick about making your order. The dubai chocolate was fantastic - it's "not too sweet" and is crunchy too! Overall good taste and texture. There's a few tables and chairs in the mall next to the shop to eat your ice cream.

    La Dolce Gelado is always a treat. Conveniently located in Oakridge Mall, it is a favorite stop for me and my mom. I've tried a few flavors but dark black chocolate is hands down my favorite. The service here tends to be a little on the slow side but I promise it is worth it. The storefront is bright and inviting. With white and green accents. We will continue to stop by whenever we are at the mall.

    Love seeing a nice gelato place with great service! Staff was super friendly and walked me through my annoying questions about all of their flavors. Their chocolate based gelato are amazing, and their crepe has a great blend of texture and flavor. They had a new drink today - Mango Lemonade Energy, and it paired really well with their sweet treats!

    At a prominently located Gelato shop in the mall, the display of various ice cream flavors looked incredibly tempting. I randomly chose the Panna Cotta with Blackberry flavor. The ice cream had a delicate and smooth texture, mixed with blackberry jam. The rich creamy aroma of the ice cream, combined with the sweet and tangy flavor of the blackberry jam, made the taste even more delightful. I'll definitely come back next time to try other flavors.

    We were craving for some sweet crepes and so excited to find out this place in South SJ. It's inside Oakridge mall, across from Daiso. Servers were super nice and willing to let us taste whatever flavor we asked for. We got the banana and strawberry crepe with one scoop of chocolate ice cream. It came out $13 per crepe with tax and tip, which is not bad with the high SJ minimum wage (you know what I mean). I personally like my crepe batter to be lighter and crunchier. Their batter is kinda cakey which make it harder to be crunchy. On a side note, it would be great if you can find a table further from the children playground if you don't want to eat with children screaming as your BGM.

    Came for a walk at Oakridge mall and finally decided to give this place a try. The taste was delicious and soft! I cannot wait to come back again for a sweet tooth !

    Small Gelato (Mint Chocolate and Strawberry)
    Anh L.

    La Dolce Vita is a small, cute ice cream shop sitting at one end of the mall. It's not in the food court which is interesting considering the placement for food and beverages. The servers were really nice to offer tastings on the spot. I think there is a maximum of 9 flavors you can try out. I tasted the lemon mint and it wasn't my favorite, so I chose something else. They have a wide selection of flavors you can choose and I felt that picking a small size (2 flavors) was good enough. The portion the team provides for the small selection was quite generous. The flavors I selected were mint chocolate chip and strawberry, both in which were delicious and refreshing. I think for a hot summer day, I would like to try the sour flavors next time.

    Mint over guava and tiramisu over panna cotta. The flavors were all very good, but the mint was "meh".

    Stunning. The gelato here is simply stunning. Okay, okay... I'm not a gelato connoisseur, but dang, the gelato here was tasty! From the fruity guava to the panna cotta to their mascarpone to their tiramisu... the flavors really popped and were memorable. I think their other flavors are probably all pretty stand out as there is some creativity and depth of flavors with their choices. Although I would skip on the mint flavored gelato, I'd definitely want to try the others. It's inside the mall across the way from Andersen Bakery. But can't really say much else other than... it's in a mall. Service was nice. Helpful, nice, and was polite in providing our gelato on a cone. It is a bit pricey. A small (2 flavors either in a cup or a cone) will set you back $7. Furthermore, each scoop is rather meager. Not an American sized scoop, bur that's a good thing for your belly ;).

    I just went to the Crepe Bistro for the second time and I really enjoyed myself…read more The first time there were six of us so the owner kindly set up a table for all of us outside. We tried all of the different flavors of savory crêpes and they were all wonderful so it was difficult to choose what to eat on my second visit, but I went with the Mexican lamb one. Also had an excellent moist blueberry muffin. Most of the things that they prepare can be done gluten free, which is a plus. They also sell olive oil from their farm in Jordan. There is a huge parking lot in back so parking is never a problem. There are really nice photos and paintings on the wall to peruse while you're waiting for the food.

    I genuinely love the food here. I've been coming for the past 5 years and it's always amazing &…read moreeverything usually goes without a hitch. Today, though, one of my crepes was undercooked (basically a little raw) and the other was overcooked. I went to tell the cashier and asked if they could remake the undercooked one. She was so nice and immediately said yes, but when she went to talk to the kitchen, the staff back there resisted. They came up to me and claimed nothing was wrong with it, saying "that's just how the batter looks." She fought me on the quite hard. Eventually, she agreed to remake it, but when it was brought back to the table, a passive agressive comment was made about how if it was cooked anymore it would be burnt. Which is ridiculous, considering our other crepe was clearly toasted a little too much! Afterward, that same nice girl (don't have her name is she is blonde) from the front came over to the table to check on me again and genuinely apologized for everything that happened with the kitchen. I know mistakes happen, things get busy, and maybe they were rushing to get food out. But please just recognize when a mistake is made instead of trying to convince someone they're imagining things when the food is clearly undercooked. The remade crepe came back looking perfect and tasting delicious. I wanted to give this 3 stars for the the attitude, but my love for the food and that incredibly sweet girl at the front kept it at a 4.

    While out shopping, my wife and I came across BLVD Coffee and remembered a friend mentioning it…read morebefore--so I figured, why not give it a try? As soon as we walked in, we were greeted by Enrique, who had such a warm and welcoming demeanor. We took a moment to look over the menu, and he quickly picked up that it was our first time. After we confirmed, he asked about our coffee preferences--strong, sweet, or somewhere in the middle--and walked us through the seasonal menu with some great suggestions. My wife ordered the iced lavender vanilla, and I went with the iced café carmelita. He also asked if we wanted food, so we tried the lemon blueberry loaf and a turkey avocado sandwich. Everything did not disappoint. The drinks were amazing--Enrique absolutely nailed the recommendations--and the turkey avocado sandwich was especially memorable. While our drinks were being made, we had some friendly small talk with the staff, which added to the experience. The overall vibe was great. The team was super friendly and attentive--when a line started forming, other staff jumped in right away to make sure no one was left waiting. I'm really glad we stopped in and gave this place a shot. We'll definitely be back!

    Great vibes, good coffee (not too acidic beans), almond croissants were delish!…read more Pros: - Lots of parking in front of the cafe - lots of seating (indoor & outdoor) & different vibes I ordered: - almond croissant: ugh so good! It was flaky, chewy, not too sweet, almonds were burnt. Even after 4 hours, it was perfect. 5/5 stars - $6 - Americano: yea I know, boring but it was good! Acidic but not too much. Would've loved to taste the bean more 4/5 stars - $4.50? Definitely a good work/study cafe on a random weekday
