This place took a few visits, but it grew on me…read more First, it is very cute. Aesthetics are there and the ambience makes it cozy. That feeling never changes and it feels like a safe place to invite others to try some ice cream. If you come earlier and want to balance the sweetness with something bitter, they also serve coffee. The staff is wonderful and they treat you well. The ice cream or gelato flavors are a delight and there are some options. If you don't feel like walking outside with your dessert, they also have some seats inside. I once came with a group of 14 and we all managed to find seats, so you can make it work with what they have. Parking and holidays are probably the only thing that get in the way. Street parking is available, but you may have to park a few minutes away. I also remember this place being closed for a few days for religious reason, but there was no way to know until we went up to the storefront and read their note at the entrance.

I saw the ice cream from outside the window and immediately was intrigued. There were so many flavors to choose from I couldn't help but sample as many as I could! At first I was nervous because I didn't want to be a nuisance testing every flavor.. but the employee Eller reassured me it was okay and to try as many as I like. After all the testing I had to go with a piccolo cup Strawberry Cheesecake and a pint to go.

The staff were really nice, they let my wife sample some ice cream before making a selection. She sample the French vanilla, cookie and cream and mint chocolate. She decided to go with the two flavors in a cup. She went with dark chocolate and the mint chocolate gelato. The presentation of the ice cream in a cup was great. There some seating inside of the place or you can go outside and eat your ice cream. They also have cookies here as well.

Tang and Java was actually where I originally wanted to grab coffee, so we decided to come here instead and I am SO happy our day worked out that way. This was genuinely some of the best coffee I've had since moving to California. I originally ordered one drink, and then realized they had a coffee flight. They were so nice and let me just pay the difference to switch to the flight, and THANK GOD because every single flavor I chose was amazing. The Toasted Tiramisu was TO DIE FOR. My friend also got the brown sugar coffee, which was incredible, so between the flight and hers I got to try five different flavors.. and every single one was so good. I'm honestly sad I live all the way in Santa Barbara because I will absolutely be going out of my way to come back here just for the coffee. And I say that as a coffee snob who grinds my own beans and makes my own espresso at home. This place is AMAZING. We also got the avocado toast, which was fresh and refreshing and exactly what I wanted with my coffee. But seriously... I will be thinking about this coffee until I can come back. 10/10.

I've heard about Kinrose Creamery since walking by them nearly weekly in Pasadena, and I'm so glad…read morethey made their way into SFV! Their current storefront is a cart in front of Alfred Coffee on Ventura Blvd. Parking is a tad difficult but can be found on the street - free around the block if you like getting those steps in! While they do allow samples, it's difficult to select from so many unique flavors! Alas, I had their Pistachio Konafa with Chocolate Shell and Walnut Baklava. My biggest surprise with the baklava. Having tried several baklava in the past, I often forego it because it's too sweet, heavy, and thick. While the taste was similar, I found this more soft and creamy which was pleasant. The second surprise was that chocolate shell, which was freshly frozen. I can't explain how amazed I was, I wish I got a video! For a small little cart, they really had many tasty flavors. The walls being pink really made eating sweets here very enjoyable. The staff were also very friendly and patient - 5/5 would come again.

I went with mango, coffee, and mint chocolate chip with lots of chocolate chunks. I know it's an odd combination, but these are my go-to flavors whenever I want to put an ice cream shop to the test.

Bingsu/Korean shaved ice is a regular fave of mine but they tend to be very dairy-based and it can be difficult to find a place w/ something similar in texture and that has dairy-free options. And this place has just that. This is the perfect spot for those looking for more fruit-centric refreshing flavors or even the sweet pastry-inspired dessert selections! A small portion of water ice is approximately 3-4 sizable scoops! And a small portion of the gelati (water ice + soft serve) specialty is approximately the size of a McDonald's parfait. My partner got the summertime (strawberry, cherry, watermelon(?) flavor and I got the peach cobbler inspired cup with gelati. I was hoping they'd have the apple pie one but it wasn't listed on the menu when we were there. Regardless, still a very tasty and amazing treat to cool down with! Service was helpful and you're welcome to try samples of anything. Was very shocked to see that employees manually swirl/mix flavors while scooping rather than have tub with pre-swirled flavors. I'm sure that takes some skill! Ambiance is very fun with lively and colorful decor. The music on the speakers can be pretty loud esp the further back into the store you're sitting at. 5000000% would go here again, would love to try the other flavors and maybe have a bigger portion when I have more stomach room bc it was that good I almost wish we had dinner elsewhere right after instead or before LOL!

The ice cream flavors we tried all tasted authentic with no artificial aftertaste, and you can tell they use quality ingredients. The prices are pretty reasonable for the generous scoop sizes.

My only qualm is how difficult it is to find street parking. Between the multitude of tempting ice cream sandwich and sundae variations, I decided to get the brownie sundae with their nanatella and hazelnut crunch chip flavors, plus Nutella drizzle. Both flavors were super yummy and creamy. The hazelnut crunch chip tasted exactly like a Ferrero Rocher. The nanatella was well-balanced without any artificial banana taste. I also sampled the ashta (rose water, orange blossom, and pistachio), which was good, but a little too floral for my cravings that day. My friends tried shakes, regular scoops, and cookies, and we all unanimously enjoyed our desserts!

They apparently make everything in house. I don't have the biggest sweet tooth so I went for crème ice which was dairy free and much lighter than ice cream. It was $7 for a small scoop which was on the more expensive side. In all honesty, this place is okay. Nothing truly stood out to me about it. I was expecting a lot more given it has 4.8 stars and 500+ reviews. It lacked in the overall experience from walking into the door to the flavor itself. I don't think I'd go back, I'd rather just go somewhere else.
