Santiago was super helpful, our first time but for sure not our last. So much more enjoyable than Holy palettes or as i call it Whole Paycheck Fixed pricing on toppings and they are premium. Come check them out and show some love!

Im honestly impressed that this place has such good reviews because it was not good! The popsicles are very pricey! And they just don't taste good, I ordered the strawberry and vanilla and just tastes like a very cheap soft serve or ice cream that was left in the freezer for a long time! All the toppings and stuff to put on is okay but the white chocolate taste so artificial. Also the place is really small, so if you're thinking of lounging in there you might have to think twice, if there's another group there you're not going to be able to sit down. The service was pretty good though!

I have now been able to try soo many more flavors and YUMMMM!! This place is crazy good and crazy cute! The Dubai Chocolate is insanely good and I hope they make it a permanent part of the menu! Staff is incredible every time I come as well.

- street parking in normal heights but we were easily able to find a spot in front on a holiday - clean, minimal interior, staff was so sweet and friendly! it was fun seeing the pop being made in front of you - loved the dubai chocolate! if i was being picky, i wish the inside ice cream pistachio flavor was stronger to balance out the chocolate but other than that no notes :) - $4 for tiny pop, $7 for big pop, $9 for 3 tiny pops - $4 for a tiny pop is just a lot so i would only get it once in awhile

We hired Cabetos Pops for our middle school dance, and they were such a hit! The kids loved being able to pick their ice cream flavor, watch the pops get dipped in chocolate, and choose all kinds of fun toppings. It was more than just dessert -- it turned into an activity everyone enjoyed. The setup looked great, the service was smooth, and everything ran on time. I was especially impressed by the variety, including vegan and gluten-free options, and you could really tell the ingredients were good quality. I'd definitely recommend them for any event -- they made the night extra special

High quality ice cream pop. The texture was great. The flavor was delicious. I live in north county. Every time I was around the area, I made sure to get some ice cream pop from them.

A nice surprise and little find I found on an impromptu walk of my dog in a location I typically don't walk in. It was a semi warm day in which I stopped by on a Tuesday at 2pm. 2pm is when their happy hour starts which is half off of their mini or regular size pops. There was nobody in there. Just the two employees who were chilling. As soon as I walked in. They greeted me and my dog with warmth. Said it was a perfect time for a pop since it's happy hour and showed me the two sizes options. They asked if I had been here before and if I wanted to know their favorite flavors and mixes that most people get. I listened but ended up building my own which was just me asking for all the toppings since I have a sweet tooth. Toppings include: Rainbow sprinkles Marshmallows Chocolate Almonds Hazelnuts Graham crackers Coconut Oreos You first select however, what flavor of ice cream you want. And which size. You can select from: Chocolate Vanilla Strawberry Vegan chocolate Vegan vanilla Chocolate hazelnut Coffee You then select which flavor you want to dip your ice cream pop in. Milk chocolate, white chocolate or dark chocolate. Finally the toppings that I mentioned before. If there's too many options for you to choose from...You can select from the menu, an ice cream pop that is pre set such as strawberry shortcake, rocky road, s'mores etc. I think your best bet is to go for happy hour. Not sure I'd buy if it wasn't for the discount. Four stars for it being happy hour, employees who were nice and chatty, and of course for the variety of different flavors and toppings to satisfy your sweet tooth!

Cute paleta shop where you can customize your pops! Came on a weeknight evening and there was one person working and he was very nice. We got a mix of mini pops and large pops and there's a few seats inside as well as a table outside. Loved the presentation and they torch the marshmallows on the s'mores pops which is always fun.

Came here after a dinner with my girlfriend. The worker, Via, greeted us warmly and explained the process and gave her favorite recommendations. She was very quick and efficient, getting the pops done in no time at all. The entire time she was very friendly and kind. Not only was the service fantastic, but the pops were amazing! The ice cream was very smooth and the dips were rich! I recommend the s'mores pop! Definitely will be coming by again! Thanks Via!

Super cute little spot! The place is insanely clean and so is the area where they do the toppings for the pops. We went with a mini one for $4 ($4.31 total). Coffee mini, dipped in white chocolate, topped with chocolate drizzle and pretzels. Since it's mini, next time we'd choose no pretzels because the ratio of ice cream to the pretzels was just too much. It wasn't broken down very small so it was a bit of a mess to eat! The coffee flavor though was pretty tasty. What I would change for the pop would be the order in which she added the toppings. After learning which toppings the customer wants-- I think it should be decorated with neatness, balance, and the thought of "camera eats first." So for this one, after the white chocolate dip. I would have drizzled the chocolate on top and then quickly added some crushed up pretzels (because the broken chunks were too big). I think it's their way of dressing the pop with the chocolate drizzle being at the top though! Anyways, this spot is tasty and they have other flavors besides coffee. But the menu is small. I'm not sure if it's a thing for these places, but I'd love to see some fresh fruit or some sort of dehydrated fruit toppings. The topping options seemed too heavy for me. I think that the "mini" option is well worth the price and great for someone that just wants a little sweetness snack. Come and try it out (:

Amazing ice cream pops! Delicious, beautifully presented, and the kids loved them. Great service and such a fun addition to our birthday party. Highly recommend!

Mini strawberry, no dip with marshmallows on the side (my son doesn't like chocolate).

We have been eating Cabetos since they first started, back at the OB Farmers market. When they opened here we were thrilled. They did not disappoint. They have the same friendly personality, amazing customer service and quality ice cream pops. I have never had a bad experience here, it truly is a happy place. Choose your flavor ice cream pop, dip and toppings. Every worker they have is always so kind (kudos to whoever hires and trains). Thanks for always making our day. I would have taken a pic of my s'mores pop but I finished it so quick because it was delicious!

Still my go to place when I'm craving something sweet and special. Their cakes may be pricey, but…read morein my opinion, for the amount of work, effort, and quality of ingredients, I think they continue to be fair. For example, some other specialty bakeries/shops are charging similar prices for cakes and cheesecakes that are much simpler. In comparison, Extraordinary Dessert cakes take 3-4 days to make, have 6-8 alternating layers, and are typically adorned with edible gold and/or flowers. The key is to find which items you like and which are okay to pass on next time. What we ried this time: -Match Misu Cake (7/10): ricotta cake layers soaked in matcha and layered with marscapone whipped cream. This one was pretty good and ranks in my middle to high range. I only wish there was more matcha flavor (maybe if you dine in and get the sauce, this would help) or the matcha was paired with another flavor ... either go fruity (maybe a raspberry sauce, strawberry pieces, white peach pieces, or like a peach oolong cream layer) or go chocolately/coffee (maybe had some crushed up chocolate covered espresso beans). My go to's: -Ivoire Royale (10/10) - my ultimate favorite still. If you like light desserts, white chocolate, berries, and moist vanilla cake, thus one is for you. Classy and unpretentious -Shangrila (10/10) - my other favorite and will make you feel like a princess with all the pink chocolate curls. A little bit adventurous and innocently elegant. Ones to skip: -Au Chocolate / La Bete Noire / Dame Chocolate - get the Viking instead. That's my favorite of all their chocolate cakes -Lemon ricotta - get the Passionfruit Ricotta instead -Torta misu - the matcha misu is better. The tortilla misuse made me want a regular piece of tirmaisu than a cake version -Coconut cream - not bad, not amazing though

Also just so everyone is aware they're also liars just to mention & stupid.. she tells us her name is Karen thinking we don't know the owners name lol .. She was at the register at 7:20pm and was extremely rude and dismissive after we placed our order, especially regarding a child's dietary restrictions and health concerns. We politely asked if it would be possible to purchase a small cup of fruit , even just a couple strawberries cut up, because one child in our group cannot have sweets due to very strict dietary restrictions . Instead of simply saying they were unable to accommodate the request or offering another option, we were told to "go somewhere else," despite already spending the amount we did . The complete lack of professionalism and basic customer service was honestly shocking. It's disappointing to be treated that way at a place we have supported so consistently. This place has been going downhill , management for this place needs to step up .

One would think that, in such dark times, one could still find even a glimpse of hope in an ice cream cone. I was proven wrong, and my outlook on the current state of affairs only dimmed further. I ate my ice cream in two bites. Twenty dollars for two cones, four bites total. I didn't even bother feeding my son the pup cup. He deserves better. The world deserves better. Bigger portions. Bigger smiles. Makes perfect sense, in my humble opinion. I suppose your employees do not agree.

Customer service from Manny was amazing and welcoming from the moment we walked in. We also really appreciated that military discount was honored here. We ordered the Mini Golden Treat, which came with a warm brownie on top with whipped cream, fudge, ice cream, and a cherry. Honestly, it was the perfect size for two people to share without feeling heavy after midnight. What stood out the most was the kindness we received even as hey were closing, and our transaction was complete and paid in full. Manny still offered us cups of ice water and extra napkins without hesitation. That small gesture really added to the experience and made us feel welcomed instead of rushed out. He got a well deserved tip for that California love he gave us. I'd definitely return here whenever I'm back in San Diego. Extra deets: Manny shared the history of the failed gold rush of the owner, and how he utilized the entire chocolate plan of a drinking bar conversation and made millions.

The flavor selection was pretty vast and they were generous with letting you try samples. They made sure to ask me if i had been there before, so they could explain things to me.

The portion size was pretty good, and actually i couldn't finish the whole thing, even though i got a small.

I'm ok with people asking for a handout, but it is totally not cool to repeatedly ask inside an ice cream shop and asking a minor after his parents already said no. That interaction really put a damper on things, but we eventually ordered a few scoops and a few cookies. Thought the cookies were spot on again (warm from the oven). The ice cream temperature wasn't quite right - a bit on the melted/soft side. Not quite what we were hoping for this time around.

I've worked in Little Italy in the past but have never tried Caffe Italia. I got their Italian sandwich, with the default bread being focaccia.

I thought it was tasty as well as their coffee, however my coffee wasn't filled up all the way. It is strong and their roast is bold! I liked it a lot, although a lunch meal can get costly so it would just be from time to time if I were to revisit. Not only that, but they also have a small selection of gelatos which look pretty authentic like Spumoni! Other desserts I saw were mousse, tiramisu, cannoli, cheesecake, carrot cake, and rugelach. The cafe is small and the service may take a bit if you are waiting for the food, but overall, I enjoyed my coffee and sandwich.
