Iceskimo - San Diego

Shaved ice cream. At first it was uncertain how I felt about the idea of an ice block shaved into a cup, but I wasn't disappointed. Prices vary on the total weight according to the selection of different toppings and sauces. My children enjoyed theirs and often ask to come back. I also order her bubble waffle, not used again to the concept, but it was delicious. It is done so that you can tear off the individual bubbles to eat or share. total fodder; Five out of five. I was here a few times before I write a review and the service is always amazing. The staff is very welcoming and patient and adapts to the entire experience. My son was insecure to get a cherry, so not, but he later regretted his decision. I asked the checkout if I could buy some cherries, but they just put a few in a small cup and handed it to my son, which made his day. Lines can extend the door. total service; 5 out of 5. Limited parking especially during lunch and dinner time. Three tables are available for interior seats. Location and location is more for 'grab and go'. Noise level is moderate, but can be loud during dinner by the amount of customers. overall ambient; 4 out of 5. Very recommended and my first choice when hot ice cream.

I stop in here very often after a ramen or KBBQ dinner because it's in such a convenient spot in relation to so many other great places! They do their version of a waffle coma which is always warm and fresh. The ice cream is awesome and presentation is always fun and fancy. They were very busy when we went tonight and staff was still very helpful and set waiting expectations which were totally reasonable. Great after dinner dessert spot!

I came here with my friend in the afternoon, there were only two workers which I felt was a significant amount for the space they worked in. They weren't really talkers (just the sound of the different flavor ice being shaved and the slight chatter of guests . The menu posted outside and the menu they had inside varied a bit. It would be nice if it were updated. This was my first time at the topping station. It was a bit messy in a sense and many of the options were very low on refills. There weren't any signs saying what was what. And I felt kind of weird seeing as we were allowed to scoop it outselves but we had to reach over multiple sections of the area. It's just (even though my hand was clean , who knows if others hands were. And I did see that they had gloves but they hadn't mentioned anything about it. Or the process of adding toppings. I feel like after she gave us the shaved ice we were on our own We ordered a small thai tea shaved ice with condensed milk. We added lychee jelly cubes (I thought it was nata de coco, but it was not , grass jelly (we enjoyed the fact it was firm! , longan fruit, brown sugar boba, and more condensed milk. This dessert was very cold and perfect to cool us down in the heat that we experienced today. The thai tea flavor we chose was perfectly brewed into the cube and shaved nice and finely. Despite it being milk based the ending texture wasn't icey at all. (Some frozen milk based desserts tend to get that icy and chunky texture to them . On the side of the register, there were 3 bottles. One was condensed milk, caramel, and chocolate syrup. Very interesting. For a dessert place like this, I would have loved if they had brown sugar syrup to add on the top of the shaved ice. Another thing I found kind of odd was that they didn't refill the napkins holder. And there wasn't a trash can (as far as we could visibly see avaliable for our finished bowl. We had to walk to the business over and place it in their trash can. The amount of Iceskimo bowls that overflowed the 2 outdoor trash cans was absurd! I felt nervous just stacking my bowl on top. It was like a mountain of them.

Nice shop and great service! The ice was shaved into our bowl and then we could embellish it with everything we wanted. Overall, good taste, but was not a big fan of texture. I prefer soft or hard ice over it, but I would definitely recommend to give this place an attempt!

The staff was very friendly and always called me with my name. The bubble waffle was okay, but the soft portion of ice with brown sugar and Boba is wonderful!
