    Supposed to be Teas Me
    Yummy B.

    I ordered the teas me (matcha + thai) but only got Thai tea ice cream there was a layer of toppings so I didn't realize at first but just disappointing..

    Rayna R.

    Fun gimmicks, and decent recipes, but not a ton to get excited about. Very basic sterile environment with a couple of freeze plates to make your ice cream concoction upon. To expect anything in the way of ambience. You're going to be eating outside or taking it with you to go anyway, as their recipes taste better after they start to melt a little bit. Staff seemed pleasant enough, but it's hard to rely give a fair shake at rating service from people rapidly turning out ice cream to a lot of young people until the middle of the night. On the other hand, if you finish up with dinner and you just need a quick place to go and smash some decent trendy ice cream type thing, then why not?

    Marshmallow ice cream bar

    The ice cream marshmallow bonfire was not good. The center texture is super strange. It does not taste like ice cream. It's way overpriced for $11.50. The service here was really bad upon entering. There is a young kid with curly hair on FaceTime with his girlfriend not even acknowledging our existence in the business and gave it to us while they're having a conversation on FaceTime. Ambience nothing special the inside and outside aren't clean (all the tables are dirty). Also, the bathroom has tons of graffiti.

    Great novelty ice cream place that's open late night. Love taking people here for the cool chopping, spreading, and rolling of ice cream. Each bowl is around $13 so it's not something for every day but a nice treat.

    Icicles offers a unique made-to-order rolled ice cream experience where you can watch your dessert crafted from start to finish on a freezing metal plate. While the process was definitely fun to watch, I'm not sure the ice cream itself justifies the $13 price tag. Ordering is done at a kiosk where you can customize your ice cream by selecting a flavor and adding (free) toppings. Make sure to edit your item to include those toppings which are tucked away at the bottom. We opted for the cheesecake/flan ice cream and topped it with almonds, strawberries, lychee jelly, banana, and colorful mochi. Among the toppings, the mochi was a standout for its vibrant look and chewy texture, and the almonds added a nice balance to the sweetness of the ice cream. As for the ice cream itself, while rolling the ice cream is supposed to make the ice cream creamier and densor, I couldn't tell if the rolling process made a dramatic difference in texture or flavor. It was very cold from being made fresh, and it also was not overly sweet, but as we got to the bottom of the cup, it became a little too sweet and the rolls started to merge together. The portion for the ice cream is sizeable: we shared one cup among three people and were glad we didn't get a second. That said, I don't think I'd personally spend $13 on a cup again, but it was a novel experience watching the staff make it. Some thing to note is that there is no indoor seating, so you'll need to grab one of the outdoor tables and chairs if you plan to stay. It also looks like they used to have a self-serve boba option, but it wasn't available during our visit. Don't forget to add toppings!

    Very good but confused as to why my boyfriend got a full cup of ice cream yet mine was missing a roll in the middle. Not sure if I would go here again if they're skimping out on the ice cream while I'm paying $15 for a cup

    I stopped by Icicles in San Jose recently and had a great experience.m The ice cream was really tasty; super fresh and full of flavor. I got the Strawberry Fantasy and definitely recommended. It kind of tastes like strawberry cheesecake. This location also has a boba machine where you can customize and make your own drink drinks. It's only two dollars per drink and I think this is the only location that has the boba machine. What stood out even more was the service. Hector helped me with my order, and he was awesome! Super friendly, shared suggestions and made sure I got exactly what I wanted. He even taught me to roll my own ice cream which is harder than it looks. Definitely planning to come back!

    Oreo Blast

    I haven't had Icicles since high school. This place is so good. I got the Oreo Blast with strawberry, banana, captain crunch, roasted marshmallow, and condensed milk. This combo is super yummy.

    I love the ice cream, tasted yummy and was cool to watch but the lack of cleanliness and the smell of spoiled milk as I walked in was off putting. I questioned eating the ice cream after I saw how the tools were handle and the rag the use for sanitation was so dirty and smelly but they used it prior to making our icicles. This was a treat from a friend so I felt obliged to at least taste it in front of them but I couldn't stomach finishing it.

    Time For Reese's

    Never had this type of ice cream before! Ordering was super easy at the kiosk but and our ice cream was given to us really promptly. However there weren't that many people and I can only imagine how long it would take if it were busy. The ice cream was really tasty, has a great creaminess to it that I don't think you really get with normal ice cream. I'd come again on a nice hot day!

    Crappy seating
    Kaleo G.

    The customer service absolutely sucks, rude and disrespectful to my 83-year-old mother-in-law. Ordered a Boba drink and after paying for it then they tell me they don't have a certain type and I have to make my own and it tasted like crap. The ambience of the place is low class tables outside that are all busted up. Just nasty. I'll have pictures to show. I do not recommend this place at all. Take a look at the bathroom pic this shows how they care about their company.

    Allen C.

    What a labor-intensive task! I will gladly pay this kind of price just to support the workers. Kudos to them. There'll be a line because it takes time to make the rolls. As far as the ice cream goes, it just wasn't too impressive. They provide different flavors. Alas, we couldn't discern them. Pina Colada tasted just like vanilla. Where was the mango in Berried in Mango? Quite a few of the items listed on the wall could not be found in their computer ordering system.

    Can I purchase a gift card online?

    There is no phone number listed on any site. Do they have one?

    Jimmy that number is incorrect and I also can't find one anywhere, is this intentional?

    What kind of milk do they use for the ice cream?

    One of the workers actually verified that they use vanilla custard

    Can I bring my own secret admixture to put into the basic mix? (crushed OOPS! ALL BERRIES cereal + malted milk powder)?

    Yes we do!

    Can ownership do a better job at getting customers to wait in an orderly line? The crowd is taking over the sidewalk and pedestrians can get by.

    Of course! We have dividers and signs to ensure people don't crowd the sidewalk. Thanks for asking!

Then came the star of the show: their macarons. These were easily some of the best I've ever had. The shells were perfectly crisp on the outside with that ideal chewy center, and the fillings were rich, flavorful, and not overly sweet.

It's an interesting blend that kind of works, even if it takes a second to figure out what the "theme" is supposed to be. They offer a wide range of desserts and drinks. On one side, you've got items like tartufo (chocolate, cappuccino, limoncello, pistachio), sorbets, and cheesecake slices in the display case. On the other side, they have traditional Vietnamese-style desserts like sweet soups (chè), grass jelly, black-eyed bean pudding, and combo desserts with things like cassava, jelly, and coconut. There's also a solid drink menu with milk teas, fruit teas, smoothies, and specialty coffees. I ordered the latte with matcha foam, and while I don't usually go for sweet drinks, this one was definitely on the sweeter side--but still really good. The matcha foam added a nice earthy balance to the coffee underneath. My friend got the three-color iced drink (the one with layered beans and jelly), and if you're into that texture and flavor profile, you'd probably enjoy it. The service stood out. The man helping us (possibly the owner) was very friendly, patient, and took the time to explain menu items, which I appreciated since some of the desserts aren't as familiar if you haven't had them before. The display case also looked well-stocked and clean, with everything neatly packaged and labeled, which made it easy to browse. Overall, it's a solid spot if you're in the area and want something a little different from the usual dessert shops. The only reason it's not a full 5 stars is because the concept feels slightly all over the place, but the quality, variety, and service definitely make it worth checking out.
