[[HIGHLIGHT]]It has the classic ice cream parlor vibe.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Lots of options for ice cream and Italian ice. Some unique flavors that shine bright, and even the classics ring true. No one was here when my family arrived, a sweet older lady was running the shop. Super friendly and welcoming, like a childhood best friend's mom. After we ordered and paid, the place got BUSY with 3 more families. The lady handled the rush like a seasoned cocktail waitress from the golden era of the Vegas Strip casinos. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Price was very reasonable, ample parking, and lots of seating inside.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

I decided to try this place since I was in the area and wanting a sweet treat. They let you sample which is great. [[HIGHLIGHT]]A rather large shop for ice cream.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I got to try a few but settled on the key lime pie. Scoops I thought were on the smaller side but that's inflation I guess. Good experience if you are around the area. read more

Decided to sto by and give this place a try after having olive garden for lunch, there pretty close by in the shopping center near the vons with so much foot traffic. Parking is a little bit or a find but they do have some short time parking if you wanted to drop by for a being quick scoop. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The inside was pretty big, I was impressed with how many diffrent flavors they had to choose from.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Came in around 2pm and there wasnt guest inside but the lady who served us was super friendly and welcoming. She gave us some samples since I was super undecided about what I wanted. I ended up getting a double scoop cookies and creme and cookie dough lets keep it classic for the first time. The flavors were noticeable and the ice creme was rich, Ill have to give other flavors a try for next time and see what they are about. My best friend got butter pecan and pistachio and she enjpyed them too. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I think this is a Definitely cool spot to bring the kids, to grab a scoop a little pricy but good quality ice creme makes it worth it.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

My wife and I went here and we were impressed by the variety of flavors! They had all the classics, plus some real oddball flavors (like corn!). I had the bubble gum and it was good, but typical. I loved how they don't have gumballs mixed inside, but it did have some icy bits in it from freeze/thaw cycles. The cone was meh. It was pretty cheap at $4.50, but I'd pay a dollar or two more for something premium. It's definitely worth a visit, but it's not my favorite shop. read more

Having just finished at a neighboring bar, hubby commented that we'll have to try the ice cream place in the center one day. After looking it up on Yelp, I determined that I wanted to try it that night! As others have shared, we were cheerfully welcomed immediately upon arrival. How fun to walk along their ice cream freezer display; I love that they allow one to taste the flavors before deciding! I selected the following flavors: - Corn ice cream - unique and tasty with some fun texture (hubby said he wanted this next time); - Pistachio - because it's a favorite of mine and I like to experience it wherever I go. I like theirs here: smooth and not too sweet! Online, they list an extensive menu of their flavors: https://rogershomemade.com/ While the decor is simple, appreciatively there are a few indoor tables to enjoy one's frozen treats. Fun find! read more

Came here after wanting something sweet post dinner. The place is cute and cozy. They have an extensive menu that includes shakes and banana splits, and numerous flavors, so expect to take a while to decide! The staff is really nice about giving out samples too. I orderes a double scoop of strawberries and cream and salted caramel. Strawberries and Cream- The strawberry flavor is nice and dominant with the creamy section giving a nice balance. It's refreshing and fruity without being overly sweet. Salted Caramel- This one has a rich caramel flavor with a lightly salty finish. The ice cream base is nice and smooth. Great place for ice cream! read more

Run, don't walk, to Roger's ice cream store. My daughter and I were going to see our acupuncturist, and we saw this place and decided to give it a try. It is some of the most amazing ice cream I've ever had in my life! (and I've had gelato in Italy ) The blue monster is especially delicious, don't be put off by how it looks, it taste amazing! They also offer Italian blast drinks, along with old-fashioned banana splits! [[HIGHLIGHT]]This is the perfect spot to beat this heat wave.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Bring your kids, friends, and family.

I'm used to Salt & Straw, but something about their quality has gone down, so I decided to give this place a try and it did not disappoint. I ordered pistachio and butter pecan, and both were rich, creamy, and full of flavor. You could really taste the freshness of the ingredients, and the texture was perfectly smooth--not icy or overly sweet like some places. The staff was super friendly and patient while I sampled a couple of flavors, and the shop itself had a nice, welcoming vibe. Portion sizes were generous for the price, and I left feeling satisfied without breaking the bank. Overall, this spot definitely exceeded my expectations and might just become my new go-to ice cream place. Highly recommend if you're looking for quality and flavor done right! read more

My grandsons like the purple ube, milk chocolate, and blue raspberry flavors while I like, and usually order, the pineapple-coconut ice cream. They have many different flavors, so and there's certain to be something for everyone's liking. The place is nice and clean. There's plenty of indoor seating, and there's also a large TV which is always playing kids' shows like Power Rangers and Transformers continuously.

Stopped in on a whim as my pizza wasn't quite ready for pick up at What-a-lotta-pizza. The place was completely empty, but very clean and new. I asked if I could get some ice cream to go as I didn't see it on their menu, and they said yes and then showed me their to-go containers. Now came the hard part--they have a lot of flavors! The good thing about making your own half-gallon of ice cream is the ability to mix and match. I decided on my favorites: cookies and cream and some chocolate Oreo. They filled it to the brim with ice cream! Almost a little to much as it was hard getting the lid on, but it finally closed. The price was exactly $20, which, considering how many ice cream cones or scoops are in the container, is not that bad. When I got home, the ice cream was super soft and delicious! I mean, it was really good ice cream!!! The problem came after it day in the freezer for a day. It turned into a rock. It was so hard to scoop out that I ended up just making little balls of ice cream in my bowl. It still tasted really good, but getting it into the bowl was a chore. In the end, I would stick with an ice cream cone or a cup of ice cream for my next visit and not take any home unless I was planning to eat the entire thing that night. read more

With so many delicious flavors to choose from, it's hard to go wrong. One tip: I highly recommend ordering online if you're in a hurry. This place is popular, and the lines can get pretty long, especially during the summer months. That said, if you order in person, you can get two flavors in the same cup, which is a fun way to try different combinations. I haven't figured out how to do that through the online ordering system yet. This has become one of our favorite places to stop after a nice family dinner. It's a great way to end the evening with a sweet, refreshing dessert. If you're looking for a cool treat to beat the heat, Joe's Italian Ice is definitely worth a visit!

But it was nice that while waiting in line - you can watch and see the donut machines working along with the staff operating it and selecting out ones that didn't make the cut. Ambiance/location - this is right in the same plaza as The Outlets at City Drive and it's a great location, plenty of other fun places to check out in the area but the only catch is finding parking! My mom wanted to come in since she heard they're giving out a free original glazed donut free since Team USA won the last World Cup game. But turns out she needed to have the offer in the app and the hours were limited and we got there after that. The lady who serviced us was super nice about it though, seeing my mom and I struggle with downloading the app and trying to find that offer, and since we waited in that long line (and were kinda still holding up the line) she gave me an original glazed donut for free anyways along with the assorted Build your Own 3pk I picked out. I got the Lemon Bar (50 cents extra), Cinnamon Apple Filled, and New York Cheesecake (50 cents extra) totaling to $9.67 with tax. They were all really good and I'd say it's worth it for a snack and to sample some pretty and unique donut flavors. Love Krispy Kreme and would definitely recommend them!

The mobile app ordering experience is annoying where for a 24/7 location it doesn't support pickup except when the lobby is open. I'm not fumbling with the app in the drive thru.

I wanna start by saying that this place is so unique with their decor and the vinyl records. There's so much space and that's a standout trait in comparison to many cafes.

The presentation was nice but none of us liked our coffees. :( I know that many of the comments here are opposite of how we felt so maybe it was just an off day?

I was looking for something conveniently located between South OC and the freeway when I stumbled across this hidden gem. First things first--the tater tots were fantastic: perfectly crispy on the outside, soft and fluffy on the inside. My 5-year-old self would have been absolutely thrilled. I ordered the OG Burrito, and it did not disappoint. The meat was flavorful and plentiful, and the burrito had a great balance of ingredients without being overloaded with potatoes. The cilantro sauce was the perfect finishing touch, adding a tangy kick without any heat. Now, if my burrito-to-potato ratio seemed a little off, that's entirely on me because I may have eaten a questionable number of tater tots before diving into the burrito. No regrets. Everything was delicious, and I'm officially hooked. If you haven't checked this place out yet, I highly recommend giving it a try.

I have to admit that the Aussie style breakfast is along with different twist on certain things that you wouldn't typically have for breakfast or initially caught my eye. I started off with the golden latte. It was a beautifully balanced turmeric latte with almond milk with a perfect amount of sweetness. Not only was it gut healing, but it's super warming on a chilly morning. While I was looking over the menu, I was between the breakfast burrito since everybody was ordering it or the soft scramble with chili oil. I landed on the soft scrambled chili crunch. It was served with a half avocado and rye toast the others in our party ordered pancakes, bacon, a chicken sandwich and a Yuzu drink. Everything came out in a timely manner and beautifully plated. I absolutely loved the soft scramble on Rye. It was a perfect serving size as well as hitting the spot for a not so traditional breakfast. As we're sitting there, I noticed everybody was ordering the lemon ricotta pancakes, so I could not resist and ordered some as well. I will say the most underwhelming part of that was the lemon ricotta pancakes due to the ratios for the pancake pancakes and lemon ricotta. Overall, my experience was spectacular. I cannot wait to go back to Bluestone Lane to try other menu items.

Unfortunately, the service started well, but after taking our order, we never saw our server again...as this is a small place, I'm going to assume there was some miscommunication among the staff. So, yes, I'll return again.

I have gone the past 2 years and never had issues getting it on the first day. This year was different. I got there around 5:05 and walked into the shop to see a lot of tables empty. I was shocked to see that. I waited in line with maybe like two people in front of me and guess what they asked of Pliny was still available. The guy working said to the people in front of me that they sold out. It was my turn I asked if they had it and the guy said that they had a line since 3pm and that they sold out of the keg. We ended up getting two beers since we went anyways but that's when things didn't add up. He kept telling all the other people that started to show up the same thing. These are reasons why it didn't add up 1) empty seats inside but had a line since 3pm and beer was released at 4pm 2) I don't think the people going for younger would just order one beer and not try other RR beers? 3) only one guy working beer counter and having to clean the tables and make sandwiches? 4) 12 oz pours of beer and keg with about 1984 oz would make it 166 beers. No way they sold 166 beers in an hour with one person working the bar and shop empty in an hour. They could have posted on their instagram or socials that they sold out but failed to do so. I'm sure a lot of people all night were disappointed to see that they didn't have it or post anything about it.
