Black sesame- pretty solid and i really enjoy the nuttiness but for some reason i think that its more nutty than creamy. 4 berry sorbet- that one was pretty good i think it was pretty fruity but the combo ended up tasting more like raspberry vs the combo Lychee- honestly pretty solid not much to say except it was good Boko(i think)- it was really good idk the different between coconut and young coconut but it was yummy Ny cherry MY FAVORITE HIGHKEY IT WAS SO GOOD IT WAS SWEET BUT LIGHT I COULD EAT IT SO MUCH

We ended up ordering the Crazy Jen's Brownie with chocolate chips, and it was absolutely delicious rich, creamy, and packed with flavor.

The monthly special flavors are always exciting and give you a good reason to come back regularly. Personal favorites include the Coffee and Love Nuts flavor and the Nuts and Chocolate Gooey Brownie, both rich and very satisfying. Another highlight is the freshly baked waffle cones and waffle cups, which add great texture and aroma to the overall experience. The staff are consistently courteous and welcoming, and they are happy to offer samples, so do not hesitate to try a few flavors before deciding. Portion sizes can be quite generous, and at times the regular scoop feels too big, so opting for a kids scoop can be a good choice.

Chocolate chip cookie ($3.75) with a scoop of mocha almond fudge ice cream ($5.25): the cookie was too crispy, as I prefer it to be soft baked in the middle with crispy edges.

When I visited on a Monday night, it was almost completely empty. However, when I drop in on weekends, it's much more lively. I've never had a negative experience with the employees at this shop, who let you sample a couple flavors before you order. The inside is small and feels vintage. There's a couple tables indoors and more seating outdoors. I genuinely love the gelato here. It may be for sentimental reasons, but I truly think the gelato here is unmatched by any other ice cream place I've visited. I love the soft and slightly stretchy texture of the gelato. It's definitely softer than other ice cream I've tried, but I honestly prefer this type of elasticity. The flavors are very classic: I love the strawberry fresca, lychee, and stracciatella flavors. This is definitely a comfort spot for me and home to some absolutely delicious gelato!

You can opt to sit inside, though there are only a few bar stools by the windows though. Or you can choose to sit outside in the public area, with lots of tables and chairs in the shades.

Lots of cute photo ops if you want. I love how clean and cozy the interior is :)! You have the options to order with a staff or order it yourself at the self-ordering station. My sis and I picked the matcha ice cream floating in jasmine tea and a matcha ice cream cone. Our orders came out fast within 2-4 minutes. The Jasmine-matcha float was amazing!!! I never thought Jasmine and matcha could be such a great combination. The only downside was that it was too sweet for my taste. I took a mental note to adjust the sweetness level next time. Overall, it was a nice experience and yes, I'll come back for sure to try other items on the menu.

When at the Stanford Shopping Center, the boys always like to hit up Pinkberry for a quick snack or…read moredessert. Pinkberry is a counter-service frozen yogurt shoppe located on the El Camino Real side of the mall. The small, but clean venue is compact, likely with a maximum occupancy of about thirty persons in the customer area. At peak times, especially during warm days, the compact store can get crowded, which can impact customer comfort and the overall experience, especially with only about two to three tables available for outdoor seating. The menu offers refreshing COLD BREW FRUIT TEAS, fresh fruit smoothies, rotating seasonal flavours of frozen yogurt, and a variety of toppings from cereal to fruit to Nutella. While they have a wide selection of toppings, they stick to a small menu of froyo flavours, one of which is always dairy-free. Classic flavours that are permanent residents are original and chocolate hazelnut. If you are indecisive over which yogurt flavour(s) to choose, the staff will happily provide small samples to taste. Z and V almost always go for the chocolate hazelnut over the tart fruit flavours. The STRAWBERRY HIBISCUS COLD BREW FRUIT TEA is also a delightful drink. The staff is typically friendly and accommodating. Service is pretty quick, but during busy times, long lines and quickly grow.

I came in for a takeout order and checked in with the cashier, the asian girl with the RBF, who acknowledged me and told me to wait. I stood there the entire time, yet somehow four other takeout orders were fulfilled before mine, and even two walk-in customers received the exact same item I had orderer plus extra add-ons. When I followed up, instead of apologizing or trying to fix the situation, the cashier gave me attitude and claimed she "never saw me," which is simply not true. There was zero accountability. I was then told I could either wait another 15 minutes or take an empty cup with low-quality yogurt -- followed by "what do you want me to do about it?" That response was incredibly unprofessional and disrespectful. Mistakes happen, but the way this was handled with dismissiveness and no effort to make it right is unacceptable. As a loyal customer, I expected much better service and basic courtesy. I left feeling frustrated and disrespected, and I'll seriously reconsider coming back.

Like they added too much sugar AND topped it with sugar. Together it was like eating plain sugar. And the so-called "banana" ice cream tasted like you were eating sugar-flavored ice cream and someone waved a banana at you. The predominant flavor is just "sweet". Overall I would not come back, it's just gross and unhealthy. Whoever makes the food needs to work on how they balance sweetness with other flavors and be more restrained, as-is it's only fit for small children or those with an intense sweet tooth. Parking is in a small lot and they take credit cards. The bathroom reeks of cleaning product, which I guess I better than reeking of other things but still unpleasant.
