    Pineapple orange cherry with sprinkles, pineapple orange cherry with coconut flakes (9oz)
    Hosanna S.

    We were recommended the pineapple + orange combo by the owners and was hooked after trying the sample. So happy that you can get THREE flavors here. Especially for people like us that want to try it all. I'm normally a big mango person but after trying the samples, I felt that the orange balances out the pineapple much better. We also added the cherry flavor to our three flavor selection and it was perfect together with the pineapple orange. Pomegranate would have also been a great third flavor to add. We each got sprinkles and coconut flakes on top. So yummy, my friend and I did not talk to each other while enjoying this treat lol. $5 for such generous portions and the extra touches they add to the ice cream makes it a full experience on a hot summer day. It's in a plaza so plenty of parking. Another note I have to mention is that the owners were so kind. I actually had a spill on my very white top and when they saw it they were so proactive about helping me clean it without me even asking. Thank you so much!! We'll be back very soon!

    OK, this place is good but I'm not exactly sure why the lines here are so long! The portions are huge so they're so hard to finish. They have a wide variety of flavors available. You can get up two four flavors since you can get two flavors and they can each be splits. I got half pineapple dole whip and half mango-pomegranate swirl. Again, it was good, but I wouldn't go out of my way for it ever again. It was very very sweet. I guess if you're a Disney adult trying to get your dole whip fix outside of the park!

    The prices are insanely affordable. So many flavors and you choose up to three in the small cup size! ($5) The small can feed two easily. We got the classic pineapple and pomegranate. Both sweet ,tropical and tart. Very satisfying on a hot day.

    I absolutely love this place. It's located in a large, mostly Korean retail plaza. It's a small shop that serves soft serve. Dole Whip style. But not just pineapple; a variety of fruit flavors that change daily (pineapple is always on the menu though). Prices are amazingly more-than-fair for the generous servings. There are a few tables outside but the indoor seating is what I really love about this place. There are three cubbies, with two seats each, done up as little tiki huts. The decorations are wonderful and create a great tropical vibe within the small space. On top of that, the service is quick and friendly. You can have up to three flavors in a serving. I chose a large-sized cup with a swirl of two flavors - pineapple and orange. SO GOOD! I sat at one of the tiki booths and savored each bite while enjoying the decor. I would call this a hidden gem, but with the steady stream of customers, it doesn't appear to be very hidden!

    Amazing value! Only $5 for a 9oz soft serve, enough to share between two people. Vanilla is vegan, fruit flavors are tart, really delicious. Additional flavors changed out daily. Prepackaged pints are 2 for $7.80. Very friendly customer service and cute indoor decor. Highly recommend!

    The place is a nice hole in the wall place with very cool decor. Plenty of different flavors for dole whip. I got the 9 Oz POG (Passionfruit, Orange and Guava). My partner got the original pineapple flavor with mango. It was really good! We both enjoyed it. I must say the flavors are very similar to Disneyland dole whip pineapple flavor! It was great tasting, and not sour or too sugary. Will be back to try other flavors. Also, you're allowed to sample before buying. 2 samples per person. The cashier at the front is very nice. Good customer service. The owner is a friendly guy who constantly greets the guest.

    I was so excited to chomp the first bite that I forgot to take a picture until afterwards.. Brian and Jennifer are the owners and are so friendly and personable. It is rare to find the level of service and care that we need in hospitality and customer service. They have more Dole Whip flavors than any establishment I have ever found in person or online. They even have a root beer float swirl. Do you like Cactus Cooler soda? They have a unique swirl that can be made into a cactus cooler float, which is probably the only place that offers this. They post their flavors on Instagram regularly.

    Hidden gem! So amazing! The Dole Whip tastes phenomenal! It tastes better than Disneyland--yes--I said it! On top of that, it's a MUCH better deal and "made with love" as the lady boss said! I just stumbled upon this place after having dinner at the Korean restaurant just a few doors down in the same plaza, and am so glad I did! The decor is super cute, island vibes! They have tons of flavors, but I just wanted the signature Dole Whip. Service is nice. Portions are huge! Thank you so much for these huge portions! AND, they had real fruit, a cherry, and tiki umbrella on top! The owners still have full-time jobs, so this shop is closed Monday and Tuesdays, but you gotta give them a try when they're open! It's their passion project. I can't say enough good things and am so happy I found this treasure in Garden Grove! Quality, quantity, service, etc. are wonderful. I WILL be back! I highly recommend!

    I love this place. The couple that owns it is so sweet and kind. The portions are big, and I requested to only serve enough to fill the cup and they happily obliged slowly but surely I'll be going back to try a couple flavors at a time Highly recommend. Also love all the cute decor! (Pictured is a 9 ounce pomegranate/strawberry swirl.)

    People are so nice. Tastes Amazing! Closed on Mondays and Tuesdays! Orange is my favorite!

    Pineapple raspberry swirl with oreos
    Hannah N.

    Love the tropical vibe here and decor! The owner is really nice and quick with your order. Prices are reasonable for the amount you get (a 9oz for $5!). I got the pineapple raspberry swirl and got oreo toppings for an extra charge. It was perfect for this hot weather! There's no need to go to a certain amusement park for Dole Whip if you know about this hidden gem.

    Orange and pineapple and the trad pineapple dole whip. These are 16oz :)

    Was thinking about going for frozen yogurt but saw this online and couldn't pass it up. So glad we did lol! Will try the mango pineapple next time! Dole whip with the cutest presentation!

    Came to check out this dessert place that just opened in the Korean district! Historically, the only place you can get Dole Whip was at Disneyland, but not you can get it in many places. What I really noticed about this is place is that the specialize in fruit soft serves with various flavors. It's also super affordable. Watermelon (5/5): Tastes super calm and sweet Mango (5/5): Tangy and sweet. Strawberry (5/5): Sweet I really liked this place and will come again when I'm craving desert

They specialized on Durian ice cream and I've been craving it since meeting my girl :) I got the craving because of her and now I cannot stop thinking about it whenever she mentioned an ice cream flavor. The avocado and durian combination is top tier :) Whoever thought about it is a genius cause it really blends in well with the flavor. My girl and I really enjoy this place and will be back for more fosho :) Overall, definitely a recommendation to people that loves Durian fruit :)

You really can't go wrong with the flavors here and each week, they have new swirls (two flavors mixed), and they also have seasonal flavors.

For filling, I usually order the custard, but the Nutella is so good too! Service: The servers are always so nice and allow you to get as many toppings as you want at the end on top of the soft serve! Ambiance: Somisomi's are usually pretty small with no tables to sit.

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.

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.
