Lots of delicious options when it comes to premium ice cream.
Chris G.

We came last night and enjoyed good service, Damian N. The Cold Stone Creamery products are a little more expensive but worth it, always delicious. This store location was clean, and the service was polite and friendly. This is a good spot to address your ice cream desires. You will find plenty of parking, this location is in the same lot at the 99 Cents Only Store.

Banana Caramel Crunch Cold Stone Ice cream coupled with the awesome friendly service from Lizett, Gotta Love It. Got our ice cream to go as there were no chairs or tables. The store was clean with adequate lighting. There was ample parking.

[Review #209] The latest dessert trend is "Thai-style" of rolling ice cream, & Cold Stone Creamery might be an early pioneer of that made-to-order concept except it's not rolled & doesn't use a milk/cream liquid base. CSC's ice cream, churned from the finest ingredients, is mixed/blended in with candy, fruits, nuts, or cakes, on a frozen granite stone. We came in on a Saturday afternoon & we're the only ones in the shop. Shortly after, a family came in after us, followed by several patrons so we ordered quickly from the Signature Creations list: the Oreo Overload; it's made with sweet cream ice cream with double the Oreo cookies, chocolate chips, & fudge. Our ice cream mixologist was generous with the cookies & quick to mix our creation, probably because of the long line building up behind us, but final product did not look a thing like the pic. :-| Its looks, or the lack thereof, was a hodgepodge of a mess but it was tasty nonetheless. I think it would taste & look better (more appetizing) if he had mixed only the cookies & chocolate chips, then drizzled the fudge. There was an Asian woman who came out from the kitchen but I didn't see her assist with the customers. And according to previous reviews, this seems to be their MO. I felt bad for our mixologist. CSC is not what I call artisanal ice cream like Scoops, so its price point is hard to swallow. The small "Like It" cup is nearly $5.00, & add-ons are 99¢. My Signature Like It cup was $6.39; for the same price, I could get a quart of ice cream from Baskin-Robbins or Handel's. :-O The unisex restroom needs to be sanitized; there was an unpleasant smell & wetness on the floor, & we were only washing our hands. :-O Parking may be hard to come by on weekends because CSC is located in the same plaza as Big Lots & the 99¢. The only reason why I brought my daughter in the first place was because she received a gift card from her aunt but I kept forgetting to redeem it over the summer. With its high price point & iffy customer service, I can't pinpoint what makes CSC special enough for a return trip. However, I am impressed with Cold Stone Creamery's partnership with Best Buddies. Currently, they're hosting the 2nd annual fundraising promotion "to support Best Buddies & their mission of ending the social, physical & economic isolation of the 200 million people with intellectual & developmental disabilities (IDD), such as Down syndrome, autism & other disabilities. Best Buddies helps individuals within this community form meaningful friendships with their peers, secure successful jobs, live independently, improve public speaking, self-advocacy & communication skills, & feel valued by society." I volunteered for Best Buddies a few years ago, & it's a great organization that supports people with IDD... just for that, I'm adding an extra star.

Cake batter ice cream w/cookie dough
Jenn G.

I've been to this Cold Stone Creamery location twice since my first visit here and I've now decided to up this place to 4 stars :). I'm not quite sure why I didn't give it 4 stars in the first place because this place sure does deserve it Each time I've come here, I have been greated by a very friendly staff. There is hardly ever any wait and we're quickly served. I also noticed the prices here are a bit lower ...always an added bonus :). As for the flavors I've tried, I got the cake batter ice cream with cookie dough and the cookie dough ice cream with chocolate chip flakes (ooh I wanted it with oreo but the girl made a mistake and gave me chocolate flakes instead....but that's ok..it was still good :). These flavors were a bit too sweet for me but at least helped cool down the super hot weather Cali has been having lately.

Strawberry and Marble Cake Batter Swirl with Brownie and Chocolate Shavings!

Delicious ice cream! I had a marble and cake batter swirl with brownie and chocolate shavings. Kay was very kind, had a sense of humor, and gave a great amount of ice cream

Staff is nice. Do Not get the smoothies, they taste like blended grass. Not sweet like their sweet cream. The cakes are fantastic.

I don't crave halo halo often, but when I do, I'm getting the UPSIDE DOWN HALO HALO from here!…read moreWhile it isn't the most traditional version of the dessert, it still has all of my favorite parts. I love that the base is an ube milkshake and the corn flakes add a nice crunch. I'm glad they opened this Carson location because it's closer to me and I can fulfill my cravings!

My partner and I stopped by Cafe 86 in Carson hoping we had found our next go-to halo-halo spot…read more Unfortunately, authenticity and customer service were both missing from the recipe. Parking was easy, and when we walked in, there was only one occupied table. Three employees were chatting in the back. We were greeted, but it felt more like, "What would you like?" than "Welcome in." No smile, no conversation, no thank you--just a transaction. After taking our order, the employee returned to chatting with coworkers. When our order was ready, our name was called, the halo-halo was placed on the counter, and that was the end of the interaction. As for the halo-halo itself, my partner rated it a 2/10. It was overwhelmingly sweet and overpriced for what we received. We were hoping for layers of flavor and nostalgia but got a sugar rush that could probably power a small city. As a business owner myself, I understand that customer service is one of the biggest drivers of customer retention. Great products can bring people in once, but great service brings them back. Unfortunately, this visit missed the mark on both. The good news? These issues are fixable. A little more warmth, engagement, and hospitality would go a long way. Until then, we'll continue our search for our next favorite halo-halo spot.
