Fika Fika Creamery | Rolling Hills, CA…read more Berry Sweet Lychee Jasmine Green Tea Mochi Paw Cake $ (~$7-10) Fika Fika Creamery is a really delicious ice cream place with many unique flavors! They just opened in the beginning of the year in Rolling Hills and have a few other sister locations (Fika Fika Coffee). I absolutely loved how soft the texture was and all the different, unique flavors they had. I also tried the matcha, ube, and nutella mochi paw cake and I really liked the nutella one. It's a small shop but they're very kind and patient. Make sure to try this place out the next time you're near Rolling Hills!

We came in to check out their ice cream and warm mochi cakes, and the whole experience was amazing…read more The space is super clean, bright, and modern, but the real highlight is the view you can actually sit down and enjoy your dessert while looking right out onto the ice skating rink! It creates such a cool, cozy vibe that's so unique for SoCal. It's easily one of the cutest date night spots in the South Bay. The staff was incredibly friendly, welcoming, and patient. They generously let us sample a few different ice cream flavors so we could figure out our exact favorites before ordering, which was a huge plus! What We Got: Double Scoop: Young Coconut Ube + Okinawa Brown Sugar. The Ube was so fresh, and the Okinawa Brown Sugar had incredible deep, creamy, caramel-like notes that I've never tasted anywhere else! Mochi Paw Cakes (3-pack for $7.75): We got Black Sesame, Ube, and Nutella. They serve them warm, and pairing that soft, warm mochi texture with the cold ice cream is absolute perfection.  Amazing service, delicious flavors, and a view you can't get anywhere else nearby. We'll definitely be back!

This review has been long overdue! I discovered Kristin and her bakery at Crafted in San Pedro and…read morehave ordered from her multiple times. Both times were the cookie platters and let me tell you - they are an INSTANT hit with everyone who has tried them. I gave out her instagram handle to everyone I knew like it was Halloween. The quality is so good and more importantly not too sweet. I love a good cookie when it's not too rich. This is dangerously perfect because I could've easily eaten that platter on my own lol. I need to visit her again and order something soon. She has new creative menu items all the time and I have no doubt they're just as amazing. Someone invite me to a party so I have an excuse to bring some dessert! Lol

Just stopped by and the ube tiramisu is very delicious. Kids loved it and so did I. Great customer…read moreservice too.

Wow... this place checks all the boxes for us!…read more First off, customer service was amazing. The young man that helped us today was so kind and patient with us, (my 4yr old wanted to touch everything and he let him ring the bell to get it out of his system lol). He went above and beyond expected. Wish I asked his name... I'll do an updated review with his name when we come back! Secondly, they have the BEST Vegan ice cream we've ever had. My son (lactose intolerant), had the vegan strawberry flavor and it was so rich and flavorful. Trust... we've had a fair share of not so great vegan/dairy free ice cream. Excited to try other flavors. Lastly, the place is located in an outdoor food court (Enclave) where there is plenty of indoor/outdoor seating. Beautiful place and scenery. They even have some outdoor games for anyone to play. It was pretty cool! We will definitely be coming back. Thank you!

I wanted to update my review since they moved…read more After lunch I decided to check out their new location in a food hall. They are located right inside one of the open concept buildings right by a bar. I love that they had a bunch of different flavors including seasonal flavors as well. They also have creations they make. Sadly they do not allow sampling anymore and they were out of a lot of different flavors while I was there. I got a small which allows up to two different flavors. I went with their chocolate peanut butter and thai tea flavor. Both were pretty good but nothing crazy. The person I came with got their coconut and some other flavor they enjoyed. I love that they have unique asian inspired flavors and exotic fruit flavors. It has the right consistency and sweetness. A small was perfect for each of us. There is communal seating. It's more of a counter and you order and they just hand it to you. The place is very casual. Overall I would come back and try their other flavors.

Very nice soft serve place hidden in a back corner of Malaga Cover across the walkway from Yellow…read moreVase. The flavors were pretty good overall. Their chocolate was by far the best; delicious with a slightly malted flavor. I didn't care for the cookies and cream as much as other soft serve versions I've had. Their topping bar is impressive--several options you don't find elsewhere, like a hazelnut sauce with crunchy cereal mixed in. I also enjoyed the modern interior with stools for sitting inside and the bistro tables for sitting outside. The layout is a tiny bit problematic in that, when it gets busy, it's a little tight to actually sit around the indoor table. But it's a nice place to visit when it's not too crowded!

Good not great. The selection is okay, I think they rotate flavors, and I must have gone on a dud…read moreday. I had initially tried to go about 40 mins before closing one night and the line was out the door and down the way past a few businesses. So that made me think, okay this place must be poppin. It wasn't, the inside was adorable with cute fancy little bowls for all of the toppings available (the best thing about the place, I think) but the frozen treats were just okay. My partner got a couple of the nondairy items which just tasted like lightly sweetened cold, I got the vanilla custard and chocolate froyo swirl and honestly the chocolate killed the custard for me. As mentioned before, the toppings were great and made the $20 treats worth it. 1 of the 3 staff working there was really nice, the other two were really good at the Gen Z stare. Parking is available at the lot or around the buildings.

This place holds a special kind of nostalgia for me. I used to come here as a young boy when it was…read moreMarineland, and over the years I've eaten at the restaurants, stayed at the hotel, and now I find myself back for something simple: coffee at Sea Beans. I love sitting in the lounge area near the fireplace, sometimes journaling, and today I played cards with my daughter there. It was a quiet, grounding kind of afternoon . But what I really want to highlight is the staff at Sea Beans. Today's experience was with Izabella and Sam, and last week I was helped by Austin, who was just as kind. I have a lot of tattoos, and I'm used to encountering judgment in certain spaces because of it. I didn't feel that once here. I felt genuinely welcomed, and that matters more than people realize. What stood out most is that the kindness didn't feel performative. It felt natural, like these are just people who treat others well as a baseline, not as a service tactic. There's a real shortage of that in the world right now. When you receive food, coffee, or even just a smile from someone who's in a good place themselves, you feel that energy transfer., I feel it clearly here. Grateful for the experience, and grateful to Terranea for consistently being a place where I feel like I belong. The coffee and Gelato is amazing. Thank you so very much.

Talk about a hidden gem!…read more located inside the terranea resort! they have a free parking lot and great seating inside. The space has so much room with any kind of treat or drink you'd ever want during your stay. Service was great. Everyone was so kind and sweet. Made our drinks so fast. Apple Butter Latte with Almond milk was so good, matcha had a good flavor but was a bit grainy. Nothing they can't fix easily. Will absolutely be back for the rest of those drinks!!

Came here on a weekday looking for a little joy, and it definitely delivered!…read more There's no onsite parking, so you'll need to find street parking in the neighborhood. The cafe itself is pretty small but very cute and aesthetic. I loved the checkered floor. There is some seating inside, but not really tables and chairs. There are a few seats outside. It feels more like a grab-and-go coffee spot or a place to quickly catch up with a friend. The staff were friendly and welcoming. We ordered the Salted Brown Butter Latte and OMG... it was so good. I haven't tried the famous one from NYC myself, but my friend has and said this one tastes very similar. I'll take her word for it! The coffee was creamy and smooth. The salted cream on top was flavorful without being overwhelming, and it paired perfectly with the coffee. I'll definitely be back. I'm already thinking about trying their matcha with the salted cream topping. It sounds really good in my head, and now I need to find out if it actually is!

I'm so glad we have another cafe spot to add to our local faves! Hubby's work is nearby so he's…read moreable to visit before work and/or during break! They do offer 20% off discounts if you show your business card! Hubby loves their Americano and Vietnamese coffee--very strong! I enjoy their matcha with the house cream top! I don't like my matcha too sweet, theirs is really good! My daughter and I ordered the coffee cake and ham and cheese croissant also, must try!! I love that they put mustard on it (: always made fresh and warm. Parking might be difficult at times but so far, we've been lucky getting a spot right upfront. Street parking only.

What a great addition to Rancho Palos Verdes! We recently tried this coffee shop for the first time…read moreand immediately fell in love with this local spot. There is plenty of parking, and the inside is surprisingly spacious with a good amount of seating. They offer a nice variety of baked goods as well as some heartier food options, so there's plenty to choose from whether you're stopping in just for coffee or want something to eat as well. I tried the Cadillac Latte and instantly fell in love with it! You can order it hot or iced, but I personally prefer it iced. I ask for mine to be made half-sweet as I don't like my coffee to be really sweet. The cold foam is absolutely delicious and really makes the drink special. They also have a great variety of other coffee options, so there's something for everyone. It can get pretty busy on the weekends, but after trying it, I can definitely understand why. This has quickly become one of our new favorite local spots when we want to treat ourselves to a delicious coffee. We'll definitely be back and highly recommend giving it a try!

The good: I got a mint steamer for my kid for $4. It was the…read moreperfect size and temperature for a little kid. This cafe is modern and clean. I liked the side separate room in the cafe. I tried a pecan sticky bun and it was warmed and tasty. The cafe felt cozy because it's nestled in a residential neighborhood across from the fire station. There's parking spots all around the cafe. The bad: I feel like $7 for a London fog is expensive. I'd expect that price for the lattes but I usually feel like tea should be cheaper. The interesting: Seems like the initials stand for the owner's kids' names.

We brought my little granddaughter here after school for a treat. She has visited here often and…read morepointed out her favorite goodies to us. Considering it was our first visit she recommended a few things to her PopPop and me. She ordered the hotdog in pastry and the spam musubi. We ordered the apple croissant, ham and cheese croissant and the beef curry pan. Everything was quite tasty. We will return to try a few other things and buy bread next time. The service was spot on and friendly, in addition, we were asked if we wanted anything heated up. The ambiance is light and airy with windows all around. Items on display make it easy to pick out whatever you like. Highly recommend a trip to the Cream Pan. Unfortunately, we devoured our treats before I remembered to take a photo.
