Tifa Chocolate and Gelato was a wonderful discovery. I actually stumbled upon it while getting my shoes repaired nearby, and I'm so glad I did! They have some of the best hot chocolate I've ever had. The gelato is fantastic as well, especially the Mint Chip and Espresso flavors. Beyond the treats, it's also a great place to find unique gifts and enjoy a cozy, relaxing atmosphere. I love that they offer board games, making it a fun spot to sit, unwind, and spend time with friends or family. The owners are warm and welcoming, and every visit has been a great experience. We're always happy to come back! read more

I got 7 or so chocolates on a craving and I'm honestly shocked by how disappointing, flavorless and dare I say...dry and waxy the chocolates tasted. I especially hated the blueberry that tasted pure artificial. Then the atrocity that was the coffee chocolate- I took a bite... no flavor at all of coffee, too sweet, then the bite of a dry sorta stale coffee bean. Like literally just a bean. Idk it was weird. The special was "dark floral" I thought it could be a flowery floral flavor you know? I thought that sounded cool and unique. naw...it just had flowers printed on it. Strawberry cream milk was way too sweet barely any strawberry flavor... like not one of these was good. I didn't finish the ones I tried, and I still am leaving the passion fruit I bought since I assume it will be as artificial as the blue berry. Sorry to be a hater but this ain't it. read more

Tifa Chocolate and Gelato - Not even going to finish these... disappointing - Chocolatiers & Shops Near Me - Camarillo, California

Excellent gelato! We came here for a soccer tournament and my kids wanted ice cream for dessert. We found this little jewel next to our hotel. Service was great. The gals working allowed my kids to try the different flavors so they knew what flavor to get. They were super sweet! [[HIGHLIGHT]]There were plenty of tables and there were games for us to play as well. We enjoyed the connect four.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

I recently visited Tifa Chocolate & Gelato in Camarillo and it ended up being one of the most enjoyable dessert stops I've had in a long time. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Small town feels and friendly vibes.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]The moment you walk in, you're hit with the rich aroma of chocolate and freshly made waffle cones.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] It immediately set the tone for a "treat-yourself" type of visit. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The shop has a warm, inviting atmosphere with a boutique feel, and the display cases are filled with beautifully crafted chocolates, baked goods, and of course, a vibrant selection of gelato flavors.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The selection was happily almost overwhelming, so many fun and unique flavors to choose from. I ultimately ordered my tried and true favorite - the stracciatella gelato. Creamy and delicious, a classic choice. Next time I'll have to do a multi-choice stack because since visiting my friends have told me you can order a few different flavors on the same cone which I didn't think of. What also stood out to me also was the staff, they were friendly, patient as I explored the shelves for that perfect bite, and were genuinely enthusiastic. They were more than happy to offer samples and share recommendations. I believe the staff member who helped me was named Michael/Mike? Very nice people work here. The overall experience at Tifa makes it obvious why it's so well loved by the community. Happy to come back again soon to try some more flavors. read more

Upon entering, We are wowed by their Brookie, which looks absolutely delectable. Wish someone would say that about me... But enough about I, because next came the phenomenal customer service. The young lady working EOD 7/16/25 was just sooo cool. She helped us with samples, remained accommodating, helped us with truffles, remained accommodating, and told us to come back if we needed anything... by remaining accommodating! Ugh, just too nice for her own good. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Nonetheless, it is worth sharing that they have a clean restroom, that families were in there at various tables playing chess, Connect4, and just hanging out.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The gelato we selected were Cherry chocolate chip and mocha chocolate. It came with a complimentary waffle disc. The mocha chocolate was to die for. The shaved chocolate chips found strewn throughout offset by the thick dark chocolate ribbon, all built into a coffee ice cream. Is your mouth-watering yet?! The Chocolate Cherry gelato was good, had an "icicle" texture to it, making me think it could be vegan. Not sure, but warning: the cherry is very sweet. I think I'd enjoy the bitterness of raspberry to offset all of the sweetness. We picked up Truffles. The selections were Dark chocolate raspberry, dark chocolate sea salt caramel, milk chocolate strawberry, and vanilla. We will be bringing these truffles back to our own stomping grounds to compare with our local award-winning chocolatier. read more

I love it here so much. I think about it every day. I ordered a drinking chocolate & it changed my life. I've had different variations like dark chocolate with PB & gelato... bomb. Dark chocolate with cinnamon & cinnamon roll gelato... also bomb. Dark chocolate with lavender & more gelato... bomb.com. If I didn't care about my health & my family history of diabetes, I would come here every day, multiple times a day. Every night I sleep sad knowing I didn't come here. On the real though it's so good here lol. However sometimes the service can feel unwelcoming when the worker gives you attitude & scrolls on her phone while you're giving your order. Regardless, I'm here for the drinking chocolate. There are other workers that are pleasant and have a warmer welcome so it makes up for it! read more

After having dinner in Camarillo, my friends and I were looking for a place to have a sweet treat   We did a quick search on Yelp and found Tifa Chocolate and Gelato! Sooo good.

Note we went later in the evening (close to closing) a few goodies were sold out.   [[HIGHLIGHT]]Cute space with twinkle lights.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]There were plenty of customers enjoying the space.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I will be back ! read more

Their gelato is soooo tasty! The lemon, mango passion fruit, and raspberry were like biting into the actual fruit. The butterscotch, apple pie, and salted caramel were creamy goodness!

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Such a cute little hangout spot that's open late by Camarillo standards! :)[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]I've been frequenting this place for years as it's a great place to work, study, or hang out with friends and family.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]There is an assortment of board games on some of the tables (I can only remember chess, checkers, and connect 4 off the top of my head).[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The gelato is delicious -- my personal favorite combo is the lemon cookie with the honey lavender. Our server was new and was being trained on the job, but she was very friendly and helpful in giving us samples. My husband got the espresso chip and I got the pistachio lemon curd, a flavor I hadn't tried before. The espresso chip was creamy and nicely sweetened but it was missing the bolder espresso presence that we remember from previous batches. The pistachio lemon curd was gooooooooood. The lemon was bright and zesty and the mixed-in pistachios helped balance out the sweetness of the gelato. Definitely adding this flavor to my personal rotation! read more

What a fabulous little find this place is! Delicious authentic gelato. And I am speaking from experience as someone who ate my way through Italy stopping at every Gelateria in sight. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The ambience is very warm and inviting with nice wooden tables and fun games out for enjoying some phone-free quality time with family and friends.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Dig that they play soft and enjoyable music that makes you want to sit and stay awhile.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Love the wall art and the amazing selection of gelato flavors, chocolates, candy and cookies or pastries.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Also a sweet little gift shop area.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] It's nicely situated across the parking lot from Adolfo Grill so works beautifully as the perfect finish off dessert spot after a lovely meal from Adolfo. A new favorite for sure! read more

It was our first visit, we didn't know what to get, asked for samples and it seemed like that was an issue. The kid serving us got caught rolling her eyes, so that was annoying.

Favorite spot ever. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Perfect place to bring my laptop and get some work done + sweet treat[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

It was my first time ordering a hot chai tea latte, as my go to is the iced chai tea latte. I was feeling a little under the weather and decided a warm drink would feel like a cozy hug for my throat. The kind eyed employee handed me my drink, I walked to the seating area by the window and took a hesitant sip. I was met with this delicious foamy goodness and my taste buds were so happy. If all hot chai tea lattes taste as good as this, it'll be my new go to order. They have some fun games, WiFi and a clean bathroom. They also have gelato and even root bear floats. Definitely worth the trip if you're looking for something sweet. read more

Talk about service with a smile! Staff was friendly and attentive the whole time while letting me try their samples. The interior had plenty of seating with many tabletop games. I ordered their almond affogato crunch gelato and the double Nutella. The Nutella was not too chocolatey, but for those seeking something more decadent, I recommend their dark chocolate gelato! The almond affogato had nice texture and has a subtle nutty flavor. read more

The gelato was delicious and the service was friendly.

In the mood for a rich dessert. We heard good things about Tifa so we gave it a try. My first time here - so the young man behind the counter was very patient and gave me a taste of a few flavors to help me decide. I went with small cup ($6) of Nutella flavored gelato - delicious!!! My wife got a chocolate brownie ($3). Also delish! Definitely coming back when I in the mood for a rich delicious dessert read more

I am honestly not too big on sweets, but I can confidently say that Tifa Chocolate and Gelato has THE best gelato and sorbetto I have ever had. I've tried their espresso chip, strawberry rose, dark chocolate, lemon sorbetto and strawberry balsamic flavors. My favorite (if I had to choose) would be the strawberry rose sorbetto! When I tell you I bought a pint of three flavors and ate it all in one night because my spoon wouldn't stop scooping the gelato/sorbetto into my mouth, that should tell you something haha. The staff are always welcoming, friendly and it's cute inside! Great vibes for friends, family or even having a lil gelato date. :) read more

I always stop by here when I'm In town. The ambiance is very welcoming, they do a good job of making you feel like you're in someone's living room. There's board games, chess tables and a section where they sell gifts and knick knacks. The gelato is fresh and flavorful, they have a lot of flavors that you can't find anywhere else such as egg nog, and they use high quality beans for their lattes and coffee drinks. The two young girls that work the counter are very kind, knowledgeable and friendly. Can't say enough nice things about this place, read more

I had hopes for this spot, but we were underwhelmed at best. The service was timely, parking was easy, and indoor/outdoor seating options were nice. There was some self-serve water, too. On the other hand, there was a noticeable chemical smell that led us to choose outdoor seating. My partner noted that the smell was actually less present in the bathroom. Here's my review of the gelato and cookie we tried: -straccialla: nothing that necessarily stood out, but solid; smooth but not creamy -dark chocolate: true to the name, deep and slightly bitter chocolate flavor; also smooth but not creamy -the wafer was a nice textural touch -smores cookie: I was really looking forward to this, but from the first bite, it tasted off - chemical-like. The chocolate chunks seemed fine, and possibly the marshmallow bits alone, but the cookie itself had a pretty worrying aftertaste. We opted to toss it rather than risk any stomach issues later. read more

Noting that it was a little over 3 years ago that we first stepped into Tifa Chocolate & Gelato. Since then, we have become dedicated fans. We visit the Thousand Oaks location frequently. While not in Camarillo as often, we definitely give high fives to this shop. Recently, we were roaming around Camarillo for their annual Spring Garden Tour. This year we had our Sweet Granddaughter with us. She was being so good about getting in and out of the car seat (not fun for a toddler), so we took a little break and stopped for gelato. We all enjoyed our frozen treats (non-dairy for me, yay!) and the chance to set together at one of their cheery tables. SG wanted to "play" chess by moving the pieces around on the board. They have various games in the store so that guests can stay and play for a while; a slower paced way to relax versus being on one's phone all the time! Kudos to the management for having the way to hire friendly staff members. And to those employees for making it extra enjoyable to visit Tifa each time. From free taste samples, to great explanations for any questions we might have, they just make us feel welcome. They also have killer chocolates and delicious cookies. It's a great place to satisfy sweet tooth cravings, and enjoy refreshing cool desserts. Try it, if you haven't already! read more

Craving something sweet after a long day of shopping at the outlets and found this wonderful place. Ice cream is always my go to so I had to get their gelato. The dark chocolate on a waffle cone was heavenly! It totally hit the spot. My wife was craving the brownie so she got that. It was perfect for her, she loved it. And my son is all about chocolate chip cookies and had to get it. Let's just say he made it disappear. The worker by the counter was very friendly and the ambience of the place is very comforting. Another big plus is they open late. So if you are ever shopping at the outlets and looking for something sweet, check out Tifa. It's only a 5 min drive but well worth it! read more

Fantastic gelato. I had the Nutella gelato and the pomegranate sorbeto. The Nutella gelato was so good. Extra creamy and super "chocolatey". Loved it. The wafer cookie was the just the right touch. The pomegranate sorbet was very good. The staff was extra friendly and offered of plenty of samples of gelato. Very spacious. Plenty of seating. Great place. read more

I think I'm in love with this place - seriously! I've been wanting to come here for a while and finally did. Upon entering, there's a bunch of chocolates to choose from. We got the lemon cheesecake and keylime pie - both were great. Move along and you get to the huge cookies. We got the red velvet and IT WAS TO DIE FOR! Getting a large cookie right is hard! It was perfectly baked. Thick, dense yet soft, just enough chew without being dry or crispy. Then of course, the gelatos. We got the strawberry balsamic and I just couldn't stop. I've had this flavor at other places but the balsamic taste is usually too strong. This was different. It almost tasted like a savory cheesecake. You can get 2 flavors in a small cup, which is perfect for sharing if you just want something small but sweet! This is a simple review for a simply fabulous place! They have pre-bagged treats/chocolates that would be great for gifts for friends, family, or coworkers! I will definitely return, can't wait to tell more people about it. read more
