So I'm just not understanding what the fuss is about with this place that's been popping up all…read moreover. I saw the line out the door and thought it must be good especially since they have other locations in Southern California. I tried their 4 scoop sampler with the non dairy coffee ice cream, butter pecan, mocha almond fudge and strawberry cheesecake. The only reason I'm giving this 2 stars instead of 1 is because the mocha almond fudge was good, creamy, chocolatey with a smooth consistency. The staff were super friendly and the place was clean, like spotless. That's where the positives end. The non dairy coffee scoop tasted like the just froze some old coffee, it was bitter and I spit it out. The strawberry cheesecake had weird squares of what I assume was supposed to be cheesecake but tasted more like a gummy with artificial flavoring, those two scoops were thrown out. The butter pecan I finished but it was too sweet, something I'd never thought I'd say, and it melted almost immediately in the 80+ degree heat into sugar water with a piece of pecan in it. As mentioned before the mocha almond fudge was pretty good, perhaps people get that flavor and that's why the line was out the door. I saw some people get shakes so maybe those are better, but I won't be coming back to give it a shot. Cold stone, Mr. Softee, Rori's, McDonald's, Dairy Queen, etc etc all offer better ice cream options. That's this critic's review, until next time, I'll be eating.

I'm personally used to the funnel cakes from fairs and amusement parks that tend to be super crunchy and hard to break into sometimes from being fried too long. But this one.... SOFT. Fresh to order of course. Super easy to tear apart and scoop up the strawberries and whipped cream. I loved the texture, and the strawberries weren't too sweet at all. I think it's such a great sweet treat to have when in HB. There's also other goodies like cookies, brownies and drinks. Customer service was fast, standard, nothing else. & pricing is very fair. They have a small floating side table to eat off of, otherwise you'd eat this outside. It's pretty cramped inside. Parking is on main or in the close by parking garages. No restroom. Tiny lil thang.

Honestly, I was too busy eating to verify the name. I ordered a double scoop on a chocolate-dipped cone covered in peanuts. Then, in a stunning display of self-restraint, I ordered another double scoop on a chocolate-dipped cone covered in peanuts. Each one was $12, which sounds expensive until you're standing there holding what is essentially a frozen monument to poor decision-making and happiness. The ice cream was good. Not "I saw God in a waffle cone" good, but genuinely good. Straightforward, tasty, and exactly what I wanted after wandering around Huntington Beach pretending calories don't apply near the ocean. Service was great--friendly, fast, and completely supportive of my quest to consume enough ice cream to alarm a cardiologist. Overall: Good. Would I go back? Absolutely. Mainly because I still don't know the name of the place and need to continue my investigation.

Don't let the lower star reviews fool you, this is an ice cream to try…read more I've been wanting to try this place for a while, and I'm so glad I finally did. They must use really good ingredients for their ice cream, doesn't feel like a lot of processed stuff. The ice cream was melting as expected and I didn't feel terrible after eating one by myself. It was just refreshing and joyful. They are located on the southern most side of Pacific City. It's rather tucked away. Once you reach the end of the plaza, go in the building and they are immediately to your left. Staff are friendly. Place is clean. They have a lot of flavors, but sadly you need to buy it to try it. I was disappointed, of course, because some flavors seemed really interesting, but I don't dare try something different if in case I end up not liking enough to regret it. There was another ice cream place up north that had the same policy, but they are so confident about the flavors and quality that they will replace your order completely should you not like it. I don't think this place has that kind of policy, which would discourage me from choosing this place compared to their chain competitor just a block away. Maybe there could be a compromise like, try up to 3 flavors only. That way, I can try three new unique flavors but if I really didn't like them I could still have a great experience with a tried and true favorite. Hope the owner seriously considers this because I think they are great and I want them to thrive! Another great thing about this place is that It isn't a big chain and mass produced. It feels personal and feels very special. I admire people who have such a passion for the craft that they invest in it with time and money, so let's support! Especially when the ice cream is this good.

Fun for kids and adults alike. Ice cream options for those who want a different sweet treat. They do have some chairs and tables but if there's a large party it's going to be tough to get a Spot to sit down. If you need to take your cotton candy home make sure to ask for the bag and use the air blower to keep it pristine as you wrap it. The cost won't break the bank.

It's pretty straight forward when it comes to scoops in bowls or on a cone, add toppings, etc. or you can make it a sundae for an extra $1.50 (don't quote me on the price, but it's not much). The guy behind the counter was helpful and patient since it was my first time; he let me try 2 flavors and a knew exactly what my pick would be. What I liked about Afters was that while I got 2 scoops, it didn't have to be the same flavor! I didn't buy any, but you can grab pints to go and there is a fridge with drinks and such. There is no inside seating, but the outside area is okay, kinda sticky, but that's to be expected. My only complaint, and it's not just with Afters, but I wish there were actual dairy free options of ice cream...sherbet and sorbet isn't ice cream, ya know?

I'm Filipino and was tickled to hear about the flavors...Ube Pandesal Toffee, Banana Turon Crunch & Mango Sticky Rice. We tried the Ube Pandesal Toffee and I'm quite amazed how they were able to capture that unique flavor. I grew up with making an "ice cream" sandwich by putting ice cream in a pandesal and tasting this just unleashed a core memory of being young and making an ice cream sandwich that way. We will definitely be back to try the other flavors! When we arrived there was a few people in line and when the line grew a bit, I think it was a manager that stopped what he was doing to jump in and help with customers which I thought was very considerate of him to do. Lastly, the location was charming and tucked away in the corner of the plaza. It had a few tables outside and in the adjacent Pop Pie shop to sit for a few minutes to enjoy the ice cream! It's nice to support a small businesses that cater to the community! Good luck to the Stella Jean family...wishing you success! I'll be back for my Turon & sticky rice!

I understand the hype -- the cookies have creative flavors and look beautiful…read more However, I find the cookies here way too sweet, to the point where you can barely taste the cookie's specialty flavor and only taste sugary butter. I could barely finish a quarter of a cookie before needing to stop due to nausea. It was at this point that I looked up the ingredients and found that each cookie is 600-700 calories (probably because of all the butter and sugar).
