Delicious ice cream!…read more Came here during our lunch break in need of something to help us cool down and after trying their ice cream it is safe to say I'll be coming here more often. Staff is friendly and helpful with ordering as well as sharing their recommendations. We tried the Green Tea, Blueberry Cheesecake and Banana Foster - so so good! They have out door seating which we enjoyed as the perfect spot to spend our lunch break.

The gelato is velvety & soft with prominent flavor profiles. It's tasty. (Important Note: Bring cash. Card has a small additional fee, about 3.5% extra. Also, there's no flavor sampling.) I arrived at Il Gusto (West Covina) on Monday (around 7:29pm). This location shares the busy parking plaza by 85 Degrees (West Covina). Fortunately, it was easy to find parking this evening. Staff is professional and helpful. Staff worked quickly, and staff answered all my questions. Line went very fast despite a group being ahead of me. As mentioned, I ordered the Medium Cup (2 Scoops - $8). I selected a milk chocolate scoop and a cookies-flavored scoop. Portion sizes are fair and adequate for its quality. The flavors are delicious. The milk chocolate scoop reminded me of rich, dark chocolate milk. Its consistency felt very velvety, and its strong chocolate flavor almost teetered towards chocolate brownie territory. The cookie-flavored scoop was very tasty as well. This scoop flowed smoothly, and I happily enjoyed the soft cookie chunks within. This had a milder taste, but it felt very satisfying. This gelato was not icy; rather, it had delightful flavors while flowing like chilled silk. Concerning ambiance, Il Gusto (West Covina) shows genuine effort. The location is very clean and well-ventilated (refreshingly chill). I also enjoyed the Elvis Presley music. However, the music was occasionally drowned out from the loud electronic buzzing/humming sounds from the kitchen's containers. Also, some portions of the walls and floors looked scuffed with black marks. Il Gusto (West Covina) is also fairly small. It has three reflective tables inside; customer-only restroom; and three nearby shaded tables outside. Overall, I had a pleasant experience at Il Gusto (West Covina). Its prices are adequate, the gelato is a good quality, and the staff is hardworking & helpful. If nearby, I recommend. 4.6 out of 5

This is like the best Ice cream shop in SoCal. First walking in it takes you back to Stranger…read moreThings Scoops Ahoy with its cool color vibes and graphics. Second the owner Ice cream crafter is award winning and the friendliest guy explaining alll his custom yummy creations. Third there is also a craft beer counter serving craft beer and wine along with beer and wine floats using the homemade ice cream. What is better than two of the best things in the world beer on tap and homemade crafted gourmet ice cream!!!! I scream for both! This ice cream artist has taken it up on flavors and has come up with some super delish unique items some that include a little beer in them to make them extra creamy and some non dairy made with coconut milk. You can taste your heart out as every flavor is temping and made of fresh natural ingredients. Definitely one of the best ice cream shops that i have come across and probably I think the best in SoCal. This place makes Handels look like baskin Robbin's and makes others like after and salt & straw look commercialized. Because this guy is crafting the ice cream that he knows the people want and takes ultra pride in his product. A must visit place - located at the end of old town Covina that is also worth a visit to dine at and walk around. I'm coming back for a beer float on their patio and to pick up one of their cool tshirts. They also sell by the pint. This is ice cream heaven at its best!

The ice cream is amazing, with tons of great flavors. Everything tasted fresh and high quality, and the portions were generous without being over the top. The atmosphere is super laid-back and welcoming, and the staff were friendly and patient while we decided what to try (which isn't easy with so many good options). It's the kind of place you can bring friends, family, or even just stop by solo and still have a great time. Definitely a spot I'll be coming back to again and again!

The other thing is that they sell favorite paleta (ice cream). Yogurt with strawberry, kiwi, and mango. This is DELICIOUS!!

The place is bright, colorful, and smells like pure happiness. The staff moves fast but still manages to be friendly, and even when it gets busy, there's this fun little energy that makes waiting feel worth it. This time I got a dragon fruit agua fresca that tasted like vacation in a cup, and my sister got strawberries with Nutella that looked way too good not to steal a bite from. Everything is fresh, sweet, and hits exactly how you want it to. I love that you can grab ice cream, paletas, or take-home treats depending on your mood. And yes, they take Apple Pay which is perfect for people like me who never carry cash but always crave dessert. It's one of those spots that never misses...the kind of place you stop at "just for a minute" and walk out with three things you didn't plan to buy. Five stars all the way.

The cheesecake flavor is spot on, sweet, creamy, and perfectly balanced without being overpowering. We also grabbed Hot Cheetos with cheese (simple, classic, and hits every single time). The worker, who I'm pretty sure is also the owner, is genuinely one of the kindest people. He walked us through all the flavors, explained the menu, and even mentioned that they make their ice cream in-house. Such a nice touch, especially because the flavors are so good. He let us sample a few (Gansito, Ferrero Rocher, etc.) and every one was 10/10. The shop itself is super clean with plenty of seating, so you can actually sit and enjoy your treats without feeling rushed. We've been here many times and will keep coming back, not just for the yummy sweets but for the warm, friendly service. The owner always makes us feel welcome, and there have even been times when we've come with a big group and he'll throw in an extra popsicle or two on the house. It's the little things like that that make spots like this stand out. Overall: delicious treats, amazing service, and good vibes all around. A must visit!

Located in a popular plaza with limited parking on the weekends, having an option for desserts…read moreafter one of the many options for a meal nearby just makes sense. The store has a limited number of seating indoors and a few outdoors. Many great flavors available with creative names and as with more parlors, sampling is encouraged. My friend and I both ended getting a scoop of Matcha Berry Crunch at $6.25 for a single. As a side note, their apparel merchandise continue to offer a mix of silly, quirky, and stylish, especially their Anti Diet Diet Club designs. The Matcha Berry Crunch flavor is solid with a mellowed creamy flavor with no noticeable bitterness. The crunchy bits made for a uniquely enjoyable experience, as the scoop was covered with these mini morsels and remind me of rice krispies. Lastly, the berry bites (looks like raspberry?) blended within provided a slightly tart and fruity flavor.

The aesthetic of the shop was modern, sleek, and elevated and the staff were so stinking friendly! I loved that variety of unique ice cream flavors and the menu options.

From the vanilla base, the chocolate chips & fudge, to the caramel, my tastebuds were doing backflips. EXCEPTIONAL!! I can't wait to visit again soon to try more flavors. 10/10 experience and I highly recommend to all folks in the area looking for a sweet treat!

I say, "what does that mean??" He said they can only make 1 of my 3 drinks and i would have to choose 2 more that are not blended. I tell him to give me a dew minutes, i then proceed to request 2 new drinks... he then tells me they are out of boba. ‍‍‍ At this point i told him to just give me 2 random drinks. I am not going to sit there all night only to be told they are out of stuff or their machines are not working. One blender? I mean if this is your bread and butter, i would suggest getting a 2nd blender, even if it's a crappy one from Walmart for $35. This is like a hamburger stand telling you they don't have a grill to make a burger. Also, out of boba on a Tuesday (off night??) Stock up. Who's doing inventory? I was more angry at the fact that they let over 30 minutes go by and didn't tell me via email or phone call that the blender was down. I would canceled my order and promptly received a refund... i hope. I wasn't offered any kind of remedy. No partial refund, no refund, no extra drinks. Just your kinda outta luck. We don't have the proper tools to make you a drink. I will never return here again. I used to like this place and even used to come here when they offered 3 drinks for the price of 2. After spending $20 on 3 drinks (2 of them not even being my choice). I will forever skip this place for the humongous disappointment and terrible service. There are boba places all around this area. Do yourself a favor and skip this one.

We live local and I don't know why I haven't been in here before but I've been missing out. First, they don't have just churros, they have ice cream, milkshakes and specialty coffees such as café de olla, Americano, cortado, and flat white to name a few. Churros can be ordered as a box set or individually with various topping choices. The churros were made fresh! They came out warm and crispy with that soft center. We also got 2 milkshakes, one Strawberry Scream and one Peanut Butter Mother Flutter, both tasted amazing!! The ambiance gives you a cafe feel with several people opting to eat their treats in house. The place smells amazing so it's easy to want to stay. As for the service, it was also amazing! Everyone was friendly and willing to assist you and answer questions. The cashier explained that she was going to make the churros fresh so there would be a short wait for them to be ready. I highly recommend stopping in to Churro Boss to satisfy that sweet tooth or coffee craving. Please support this small local business. See you soon Churro Boss!

Ironically, Churro Boss (Covina) offers better quality ice cream than churros. I arrived at Churro Boss (Covina) on Sunday (around 2:35PM). Staff is very welcoming and attentive. Staff speaks English and Spanish. Staff answered all my questions. I ordered the Churro Sundae ($10). This dessert includes one scoop of ice cream and two six inch churros. I selected the Chocolate Malted Crunch ice cream scoop. The entire dessert was ready in eight minutes and 16 seconds. The dessert arrived picturesque. The Churro Sundae ($10) is attractive and fairly large; however, its taste is underwhelming. Although it felt like the churros were made-to-order in the backroom, the churros tasted bitter, chewy, and overcooked. These churros also lacked sweetness. Rather, these big churros tasted like chunky breadcrumbs. Fortunately, the Chocolate Malted Crunch ice cream scoop tasted delicious! It had an addictive crumbly texture. The ice cream also carried a chill and creamy chocolate flavor. Regarding ambiance, Churro Boss (Covina) is lackluster. It feels empty. The only seating is one long counter which had splotchy dried stains and crumbs. The location also has no restroom. Customers need to use their bottle of hand sanitizer or napkins if searching to clean their hands. There's two electric wall sockets in the far corner. And steady country music played in the background. Churro Boss (Covina) tries to be be modern and minimalistic. Overall, Churro Boss (Covina) offers tasty ice cream and pleasant service. Unfortunately, its churros are overpriced and somewhat unpleasant. If searching for some tasty ice cream, this location holds potential. 3.5 out of 5

This place is such a cute ice cream parlor. You don't find those anymore. When my family and I…read morevisited, we were greeted so warmly by a couple of young guys. They were so helpful. They let me know all the different desserts and options. They also explained pricing and availability to me. They showed me all the different toppings that they have for not just ice cream and sundaes, but crêpes as well. Considering I walked in here, thinking that this was strictly an ice cream place, they have a very large menu. One thing that I remember very fondly about my visit here was not that there were a lot of people here, but the people that were dining in, they were mostly families with children. That may not seem like an important thing, but to me, seeing that is precious More often than not, you see children, their parents, and even their parents parents. So sometimes you get a small group of people, but really you have three generations. Quality time like that is absolutely precious and to see them so engaged in conversation with one another and laughing the entire time and sharing dessert, that was so awesome. Sharing ice cream with my dad at an ice cream parlor near our home is a very fond memory for me. So I guess that's why I paid attention to this while we died at scoop Street. When I took a moment to take a step back and look at our little family, we also were there in our lil three generational group: me, my kiddo & my Mom. The prices here are more than reasonable. The ice cream that is used for their desserts is from thrifty. The waffle cones are made in house and smell amazing. There really wasn't anything more than I could've asked of this visit to the ice cream shop. This was so special. Servers: Art & Austin

Scoop Street is a family-owned dessert shop known for its fair-style treats and nostalgic vibe…read more Located near the Regal theater, it has become a local staple for late night desserts since its opening about six years ago. It's considered a "sister store" to Bun Street, which is located right next door. The interior features a clean, old-school shop design with cozy seating and motivational quotes. Friendly young staff but service was slow and inattentive. They primarily serve Thrifty Ice Cream, a classic Southern California brand. The shop's main draw is the funnel cake. The Churro-Chata, topped with horchata ice cream and mini churros is our favorite. Portions are big and shareable. Also, they bake cookies and brownies in-house daily using family recipes to use in their custom ice cream sandwiches and sundaes. Plenty of parking since it's located in a strip mall.
