My favorite halo-halo spot!…read more I come to Cafe 86 all the time, and honestly, their halo-halo is one of my absolute favorites! It's probably the ONLY halo-halo I can actually finish because it's not overwhelmingly sweet. Everything blends together perfectly, and you can actually enjoy all the flavors without feeling like you're eating a bowl of pure sugar! Both their regular Halo-Halo and Upside Down Halo-Halo are SO GOOD! I also love their calamansi drinks and Cali-Mango Slush. So refreshing and delicious! The atmosphere is another reason I keep coming back. They even have a cute little mini library with books, which I love! There are always people studying or just hanging out, and it has such a nice, relaxed coffee shop vibe. The staff is always friendly and welcoming, and the service is consistently good. I love having a place nearby where I can enjoy my favorite Filipino desserts, relax, and just hang out.

Such a good underrated spot for some drinks with their filipino-themed flavors and some teas!!! My…read morefriends and I decided to come here because of a really good deal and we were all saying that we should come here more often because of how good the drinks were. You can either order with the staff or order through the kiosk on the right side. You have an option to type on the text box if you need to change the milk to oat milk, for example. I always ask for just in case they do have oat milk so if you have any special requests, depending on how busy it is, might be better to talk to someone to order!!! The Tiger Tea was really delicious and was a good amount of sweet. The Mermaid drink was a fav from my group. I really liked the Milo and the Ube Milk teas. They were pretty quick with the orders so it's not too crowded inside of people waiting. It's very cozy inside and there's warm lighting and some books too for people to read. Public bathroom in the back.

This is easily my favorite knafeh I've ever had. Watching them cook it live over the flames and burners made the whole experience even better. You can taste the freshness and flavor in every bite. I just wish they were closer to me because I still haven't had the pleasure of trying their specialty knafehs!

Honestly, the atmosphere is definitely nice (except for all the signs saying no outside food or…read moredrinks allowed). The coffee isn't good and, honestly, a little overpriced for the flavor. My friends like the matcha and the desserts. It's close to campus, so I understand why it's so popular. Also, I've only gotten the specialty coffee options, and charging an extra $0.50 for ice is weird imo.

What a cute Vietnamese restaurant!!!…read more I love the beautiful outdoor seating amongst the greenery and lanterns with the Vietnamese clubbing music. Takes me back to Vietnam for a little bit. They have a simple menu but make everything well. I enjoyed the chicken wings with steamed rice. The wings were so good. A bit crunchy, very juicy, the sauce was sweet and savory. There was a ton of garlic and jalepeno. It was so delicious. And the steamed rice paired beautifully. The texture of the rice was so good. My partner had the chicken pho and shaking beef with garlic noodles. He enjoyed them both. He said the chicken was very tender and juicy. The noodles with the beef was his favorite. We both got pandan mung bean drink and fried bananas of course. The fried banana takes time to make, but worth the wait. It's so crunchy! Can't wait to come back to try the rice cakes next time.

I love coming here for good vibes and food. Something unique and different in SFV. Great FoH rep…read moreand chef. They love entertaining their guests and sharing their stories. Fish sauce wings are spot on (if you don't go to Westminster lol). Tangy, mini crunch on the outside, and juicy and moist on the inside. Plus, jampacked with garlic (cooked with a good amount of butter). Not quite sure if the jalapeños do (or taste) anything, but sure why not. Shrimp was good, clean (removed residuals), and not overcooked. Lazy to peel the shrimp skin so I usually eat it. Garlic noodles are great. Slightly oily but better than most places. Lastly, got the Hainan chicken. A bit disappointing by the quantity for the price ($14), but the rice tasted good. I'd personally stick with the shrimp or fish sauce wings. The best part of this place are their fried bananas. I like to get the whole piece and eat it at the end with my refreshing calamansi coco drink. Crispy and fun on the inside because the banana is melted along the exterior hard shell. I recommend the whole fried banana instead of the pieces. Overall, a bit pricey but worth the experience.

Came to Happy Ice after lunch because my son has NOT stopped talking about this place And I…read moretotally get it now! He got mango + blue raspberry, and I went with watermelon + blue raspberry because apparently we both have a serious love for anything blue raspberry. They were so sweet and offered us samples, so of course we happily tried the mango and blue raspberry before deciding. I even added ice cream because... why not? I love that they have monthly specials too, so there's always something new to try. The whole place has such a fun, colorful, happy vibe. And now that my brother has moved to the area, I already know we'll be back often! Always love discovering and supporting locally owned, minority-owned businesses.

Has the Summer Time which was good but I did wish it was a little more tart. That may have been my fault and next time I will try some other flavors to get that punch I am looking for. Parking- Shares a fairly large parking lot with many other businesses. I did not have trouble finding parking but I could see that it would not always be that easy.

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.

Sometimes you just have to eat dessert first. Life is short!

We also got two pie slices - the flavors were great but the texture was a bit tough. The softserve part was very frozen. So frozen actually to the point that we broke three plastic forks.

Overall satisfied our softserve cravings.

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.
