    Ok ok I am loving Wanderlust Creamery. It's so delicious and the flavors are original. So far I've tried the mango sticky rice, ube malted crunch and pandan tres leches. I would get all again. Like today. Is it a little pricey? Yes, but worth it! I would suggest just getting a pint and taking it home

    Open late!!!!

    Filipino owned ice cream shop. I loved their ice cream when I first tried them in Santa Monica area. I was super excited to see them open in the South Bay Area! I love how they give 3 small scoop sampler as an option! Super affordable and perfect for indecisive people like me! Their Asian inspired Neapolitan was a genius combo! Welcome to South Bay! Thank you for being open late!

    I love trying the seasonal flavors from wanderlust! My fav was the Sakura Matcha (not pictured) and a banana matcha (not pictured), I believe back in March. But I go at least once a month to try their new seasonal flavors! Service is always quick, no matter how many people there are. And it's always a chill spot to go to, just to hangout and talk with friends.

    Cute new place in Torrance. Tried the Ube crunch, sticky mango rice, passion fruit cacao, and the pandan tres leches. They were all good. The pandan tree leches was very subtle in flavor and my least favorite. The rest were super flavorful. They don't really have a seating area, and the portions are on the smaller side. Still a good addition to the area.

    I got one scoop of the ube crunch in a cup. The ube flavor was really good. Creamy, slightly nutty, and not overly sweet. The crunch added a nice texture that made it a little more interesting than a standard scoop. Everything tasted fresh and well balanced. The shop has a clean, modern feel and the staff was friendly and quick. Easy spot to stop by when you want something sweet without overthinking it. Definitely coming back to try more flavors.

    Extremely impressed with the seasonal flavors! Gotta try them before they go away! I have frequented the Wanderlust Creamery locations in Los Angeles, and did know the Torrance one opened up recently. My husband and I were going to drive out 40 minutes for a different shop but I saw the neon blue sign in the dark and we made an impromptu visit here. Honestly best decision of our night!! I felt compelled to write a review because the seasonal ice cream flavors were the best I've ever had from Wanderlust. The pain au chocolat tastes exactly like you think... a chocolate croissant. There is a crunchy, buttery flavor that I haven't experienced from other ice cream and I hope I can try it again before they rotate the flavors. I also tried a beurre de noisette flavor which was a brown butter with cookie dough. Also a delicious pick! I tried a sample of the Kyoto dark chocolate- and that was incredible. You can really taste the roasted tea flavor of hojicha and it compliments the chocolate well. We went with a trio and I had the pain au chocolat, the beurre noisette, and black sesame cookies and cream. I think the crunch in the black sesame cookies didn't shine as well and this was my least favorite flavor of the night. I love black sesame and just thought I would like it more. Happy to have Wanderlust in the South Bay. It's always a 10/10 and worth giving a try. They have flavors inspired by all different countries and I am a big fan of their ube malted crunch. Their flavors stay consistently good throughout the years. Cant wait to be more of a regular here at the Torrance location!

    Came by to redeem a reward and to buy a gift card. Our experience when this location opened was so different from our experience today. My reward today was for $7 off a single scoop which expires today. I asked if I could upgrade my single and was told that the system wouldn't allow her to do that. After ordering a single for myself and a triple taster for my husband, I purchased a gift card as an Easter gift. I asked if I could have an empty cup to put the gift card in, and she refused. The scoops weren't as generous as when they first opened and the inflexibility of the server is the reason for my downgrade. We enjoyed the ice cream, though.

    I appreciated the unique flavors here! However I'm giving 4 stars for pricing. I feel it's a little steep, artisanal or not. The flavors are really diverse, they seem mostly Asian inspired and I love them. I tried the sticky rice and mango + lilikoi li hing pineapple with a waffle cone. I chose those two together because I love fruity and creamy combos. My daughter tried the beurre noisette cookie dough, I will say she was not impressed as she said it was not flavored like traditional cookie dough (she's a picky eater) I believe that's because it is artisan and she doesn't know the difference yet but I thought it was good. I think this place is really cute, walking in the decor is simple, has a mellow ambiance to it and very clean. Service was good and fast we walked in when there was no one in line on Sunday. I think it's cute for a date night out but I probably would not purposely make the drive to have this particular ice cream. If ever in the area I'll come to try new flavors. I think they're in a great location and I hope business stays up for them.

    This feels like highway robbery. 1 single scoop of Ice cream for $7.50?! That's actually insane to me. I stopped by Sunday night as this was the only sweat treat place open. I ended up getting their hazelnut flavor-- I completely forgot the name of it. It was good. I enjoyed the flavor of it. I would rather go to Ugo in RB where I get 2 scoops in my cup for less the price. I understand having ice cream inspired by different cultures, but it doesn't justify the price. That one scoop did not last more than 5 minutes. And they weigh it?! The cashier weighed it before handing it to us and she said oh it's just for us to know. Like imagine being so specific about the serving size that you're weighing it before handing it to the customer.., like what if it's 10g too heavy? Do they scoop it out? Beats me.... Service wasn't anything special. It took forever to actually get inside as it's a smaller place I had to wait outside until there was space inside. And it was 2 groups of 2 and 1 group of maybe 4? Ahead of me. Everyone took their time sampling so I can't really be upset at the indecisive people. Overall I don't see myself coming back. It was a great place to try and I appreciate the extended hours for sure. But I can't afford to be getting 7.50 single scoops of ice cream when I could get a pint from the supermarket for that price.

    Came to wanderlust creamery for a quick dessert after dinner. Was very excited about uniquely flavored ice cream. Overall, ice cream quality was very good super thick and creamy.I especially enjoyed the wafer cone. I will say, the non-American flavors were kind of a letdown. I tried the Ashta ice cream which was described as tasting like orange blossom and rosewater on cream. It ended up tasting like vanilla ice cream that was placed in a room in where there was rosewater and orange blossom perfume sprayed on the other side. I had to close my eyes and try really hard to taste what they were telling me to taste. So overall good quality ice cream but if you want to taste the flavors, they're telling you to taste. You're gonna have to close your eyes and use your imagination real hard.

    The good: I tried the black sesame cookies and cream, pineapple cake oolong, Kinder, and smoky road (had almonds in it). I really love how often they introduce new flavors and I love the innovative flavor combinations they come up with that incorporate worldly cuisines. They allow you to try samples. I got a single scoop which is the same as a kids' scoop I guess. They said the kids scoop gets a free topping (dried marshmallow sprinkles, colorful sprinkles, chocolate sprinkles, or sugar crystals). My kids enjoyed their ice creams. They're open until 10:30 PM which is later than most ice cream shops. The interior is small but trendy, cute and modern. The bad: I've been to 3 or 4 other Wanderlust locations before but this is the only one I've been to that doesn't have indoor nor outdoor seating. We walked to the outdoor seating area by Whole Foods to eat the ice cream. The interesting: The ice cream display has 2 rows but the back row is the same as the front row so there are half the number of flavor options than you may initially perceive. So, you pick from the first row and they scoop from the back row. They offer gift cards in store but also online e-gift cards. They have 8 locations and are opening another in San Diego. They offer catering for a minimum of 60 guests.

    Look at all the unique flavors that they have!!!

    My first time here! I've heard of so much buzz about this place. I finally had the chance to try it with my kids and nieces and wow!!!! It definitely met the hype!! Their service was excellent. We were approached by Malorie and Nayelie (I hope I spelled that correctly) and they explained all the flavors and were more than welcome to try the flavors!!! My son ordered the pandan flavor, I got the mango sticky rice and of course who doesn't order ube flavor when it's on the meñu!!! They even had the genmaicha flavor which I totally missed. It it gives me another reason to go back very soon. Over all dishes they would have a branch in the Cerritos area. Over all STELLAR service, ambiance (very clean) but the only question I have is how come there aren't any chairs where customers can sit outside and enjoy their treat?

    Mel D.

    Great that they have one near by! We went last night and killed our ice cream. Enjoy their flavor! Service was quick! Inside is straight to the point. Nice display of their menu and ice cream.

    Does anyone have the direct location to the Rolling Hills location? I tried calling the number & no options for Torrance/Rolling Hills location.

    If start from Sephora and walk along the Crenshaw side of the plaza towards Stonefire Grill, then it's at the very end before you Rubios.

I think, great since my elderly Dad is diabetic and shouldn't have a lot of ice cream, so I went with that but in a waffle cone, she said that would be $3.50. I said that's fine, I will have one in flavor A and the other one in flavor B, total came to $7.35 And I asked her to put the ice cream cone in a cup, so it would be easier for him to eat in the car as it was extremely hot that day, and I don't want it to drip all over the car. When she gave me the ice cream, it was both flavor in one cone. I told her I wanted 2 separate cone instead of all in one. And then she said it would be another $7, I was in a hurry, so didn't really put too much thoughts into it, and just charge it. So now I look at my charges, so it turns out the same serving, one is at $7.35 and the other is $7. When I get the ice cream, I asked her, so there nothing that is smaller than this. She said there is, but not in a waffle cone, it will be extra with a waffle cone. So I asked $2.50 in a regular cone and additional $3.50 for the waffle cone? She said yes!! I am still confused as to whether they have a smaller serving than small and how much it is. I check on the pricing people posted here and don't see a $2.50/$3.50 smaller size showing. It remains a mystery to me, and I really wanted to know as it will be a hot summer, both my elderly parents, who are diabetic, would probably asked for ice cream, and I really don't want them to have a small each on their own, since it is still a decent size and they don't like the same flavor, so they can't really share a small one.

Their combinations are so unique, blending trendy flavors like matcha, honey, and many more delicious flavors. My favorite flavor I have tried so far, was the Dalgona Affogato--which I picked because I was thinking of the squid games. The dessert was so smooth but the honey was slightly overbearing. If that is not to your preference, they have other options that can certainly fit to your taste buds. The ice cream is perfectly sweet and an excellent treat in this summer weather. The honey crisps placed on top of the ice were so little, which I wished they had a bit more since it tasted so good with the smooth ice cream. Another thing I hoped was for the affogato to be a bit bigger portion. But then again, I am unsure about the sizings of affogato since this is my first time trying it.
