Cookie Monster
Isaac J.

This is a new location that popped up here in chula vista recently. I have been to previous iceskimos like the one in kearny mesa and convoy. I have to say overall the boba, puffles and matcha is great as usual. I ordered the cookie monster puffle and i really enjoyed it ! They really do need to redo the interior of this location because it feels like a warehouse for some reason. Stripped paint, outdated chairs, and no charging stations. The service was exceptional and the employees were very attentive with our orders. But overall the desserts are good as usual !

Ube shaved snow kids size with toppings
Louna N.

First time here. Was recommended to try this spot from a friend. Got kids size which was a decent amount of shaved snow with toppings. Jasmine milk tea (tried a friend's) had strong flavor and reminded me of the drink. Ube tasted like a light taro flavor. Toppings were mostly self service (they have you request for cookies dough, banana, cheesecake, boba)--enjoyed the almond jelly and mochi. You pay once they weigh your shaved ice. It ranged around $7-8 depending on how much you get. Ambiance was casual with r&b playing in the background.

The perfect place to fulfill your sweet tooth. Iceskimo has amazing cold and warm desserts that will make you want to come back. I enjoyed the cookies and cream kids size ice. My husband got the ube soft serve with a waffle, mochi and crushed up Oreos. Yum! The employee was super helpful and friendly. She answered all questions we had about the menu. It's a cute space to come enjoy a sweet bite.

This is such a great dessert spot ! Located in the shopping center next to HomeGoods and across from Otay Ranch mall. It is beautiful inside , clean with great seating options . I ordered the Tiger Soft Serve! It was delicious!!!!! I highly recommend !! The service was great and quick! Tip: I would ask for lots of napkins or an extra larger cup . When eating the soft serve it began to overflow and was a bit messy until I made it home.

Ube Vanilla Oreo soft serve
Trinh T.

Nice little sweet treat dessert spot! The place is clean and aesthetic inside, making it a pleasant place to hang out. I especially love that they offer matcha and ube options. We got the ube and vanilla soft serve with brown sugar boba and it was good.

The taiyaki filled fish were tasty, came with 5 different flavors: cheese, mochi, red bean, oreo, Nutella. With a purchase of 5....you get mini soft serve for $3.50 each. Service was okay. But the store was super hot inside, even their indoor plants were wilting. The design is cute but the furniture tables are cheaply made.

Vietnamese iced coffee
Valeria V.

My husband and I tried this place for the first time today. We tried the Vietnamese coffee and the waffle with Nutella. The Vietnamese coffee was okay. It wasn't too strong and the flavor was okay. I recommend the waffle with Nutella. The waffle was good and crispy. We got the Nutella filling but it would have tasted good with or without the filling. Service was pretty good too. The worker was a really nice young man and very accommodating.

TIGGER WAFFLE

Really yummy spot! First time here, lots of options. I got the Tiger Waffle. It has bubble waffle, boba, oreos, vanilla soft serve ice cream with brown sugar syrup.

Ube Mochi Creation
Janelle D.

The young lady working was sweet and fast! We ordered a pineapple smoothie, the ube mochi creation, and a mini vanilla soft serve with sprinkles. Unless you go in starving I suggest sharing the bubble waffle creations with someone. Its a lot of ice cream and the waffle is a decent size too! I was actually shocked by how much you got. Definitely worth $10.95! We'll be back to try the affogato

Nutella Taiyaki and Coffee Affogato (w/ mochi & almond) - DELISH!
Elizabeth H.

I was delightfully surprised with my visit here today. I was craving an affogato, and it was on their menu! I wasn't a fan of the chocolate chips so the server suggested I sub with mochi topping instead. And it was by far one of the best affogatos I've had in a long time. The shaved snow was actually better than regular ice cream! Amazing!!! It's a must try! Will definitely be back.

Ube mochi waffle
Jessica D.

The ube mochi waffle goes crazy!!! I tried it for the first time - it satisfied my sweet treat craving instantly! The ube flavor is so smooth and creamy, the waffle is very crispy from being fresh off the iron, the Oreo bits were so crunchy and added a nice texture, and the mochi was the perfect chewy bite to bring it all together! I'd recommend splitting this with someone because it can get really sweet really quickly. The shop itself was cute and aesthetic and had lots of tables and seats. Good lighting too. The staff was friendly and welcoming and served my waffle with a smile. They also do punch cards so be sure to ask for one when you're there! I will be coming back to try their other waffle creations!

One of my kids fave spots when they want something cold but not ice cream. They love the shaved ice here and all the toppings. Pretty self explanatory, you pick your size and the flavor of shaved ice... then you pack on your toppings! They have shaved ice, boba drinks, soft serve with boba and taiyaki too! The taiyaki filled with fresh banana is my fave treat here! The staff is always nice here. The space is always clean and never too busy. All in all, a great place to go for a sweet treat!

Jasam C.

I had their Strawberry Matcha Affogato yesterday(see picture) and it was delicious. Yum! My kids love love love their desserts and always ask to come here. The staff are friendly. They keep the restaurant clean. They sell drinks, waffles, soft serve, and snow. You can build your own snow. Pick a size, flavor and add toppings. They have plenty of toppings to choose from. They even sell Taiyaki Japanese fish-shaped waffles. Oh, they offer stamp cards. You can earn a stamp for every $5 spent. Collect 10 stamps and get $5 off on your next visit. I'll be coming back here again to try other Affogato and waffle creation flavors.

This is the best ice cream and Thai tea place in Chula Vista. We stopped by today and saw it closed. Sadness.

Do they also participate in the rewards program? I have a stamp card from the convoy location and not sure if its transferable.

Yes stamps work at both locations!

Are they open yet?

Soft opening 2/1/20. Not sure when it fully opens.

We did a group order from here at work and I saw poke nachos featured on their front page. When I…read morewent to order through their website, I couldn't find them listed anywhere. My coworker ended up calling in and was able to order it, so that worked out. The wonton chips were crunchy and held up well. The poke tasted fresh and not fishy or old, which I always appreciate. Overall it hit the spot. I ended up finding the restaurant on Uber Eats and saw they actually have the poke nachos listed there. I ordered it that way, but noticed there weren't any options to add extra toppings. From the first time we ordered, I remember the seaweed and crab were on the lighter side, so I wish they had an option to add more online. I called to see if I could add extra, but ended up deciding not to, due to pricing differences. When I my order was delivered, they included it for me anyway, which I appreciated. That was really nice of them. The poke nachos were good. I just wish they would add a little more seaweed and crab or at least give the option to add more of it online. Regardless, I will be back when I'm craving poke nachos again.

Raised in Hawaii, was hoping this place would be a great stop to frequent. L&L has been going…read moredownhill for a while. Unfortunately, was disappointed with everything. Number 1 complaint is that they don't use Aloha Soy Sauce, which completely changes the flavor profile of everything. Kalua Pig was bland, under salted, a little dry but was okay. Teri Chicken, were thighs and seasoned with some other kind of soy sauce, you can tell by how light brown they are. They were okay, but a little dry. Mac Salad was pretty decent, best thing on the plate. Rice had too much water so it had poor texture. Worst thing was the spam musubi. Just the shape and the flavor and it was slathered in sauce, you don't need to do this for spam musubi, just marinate for a while and cook it. Overall was really mid. Nothing was really bad, but nothing was really good, except the Mac salad. Wouldn't go here again.

So glad I found this place! Situated in a nice little area with lots of different eateries, across…read morefrom a nice park. I'm not super familiar with the area but with all the good food option, I'll be back to check it out! I went there for the food but my eyes had stars in them when I saw the customizable halo halo. They have a nice display of the ice cream flavors as well as other snacks for purchase. I had to pass up the desserts this time and headed to the register to order dinner. The guy working there was great and also mentioned we could order at the kiosk which had pictures of each dish. I'm a little particular about my Filipino food and was so happy to find pancit bihon. I ordered this along with chicken adobo and pork lumpia. The prices were pretty decent, and the portion size for the pancit was huge. Let me tell you, everything was so tasty and it really hit the spot!

I love their halo halo. Especially because they have so many ice cream flavors. Not many people…read morehave flavors other than ube. (Try the Pandan!!) I like that they also sell the ingredients as well as a bunch of other snacks. Sadly, I have to remove a star because we ordered food and waited almost an hour. Turns out, they never sent our order to the kitchen. We weren't offered any extra items, refund, or discount for next time.
