    I thought all michocanas were the same. But they're not. I decided to get the queso ice cream and it wasn't good at all :( tasted like freezer burn and the texture was weird. It was almost like when you freeze cool whip....not the creaminess I'm used to.....They also had a different price on their cups and rung me up with a much higher price. I pointed it out and she said oh, yeah that's not supposed to say that lower price anymore. Honestly, she should've honored the price on the cup since they were in the wrong. And plus I paid almost 6$ for freezer burn ice cream. I won't be going back :(

    no restroom open for customer, also they did not want to give me a refund on 2 unopened sodas. the employee told me is a direct order form the owner, I do understand there is a lot of homeless people in the area but that does not justify closing the restroom for customer, I lit walked into the store with a $2000 outfit is not like I look homeless, I also spent money, I do deserve to use the restroom, I can't express enough how discriminated I feel after my interaction with this "business". I'm never coming back and also telling all of my friends that come here, my bad experience. How are you going to own a restaurant or a food place (with dine in) and not have a restroom!?

    28 min for an Açaí and some tostilocos! I asked to use the restroom and they said it was clogged and that they themselves couldn't even use it and that the owner was doing nothing to fix it until monday ‍ i guess employees have to pee in the bushes and to top it off i found a nasty black object in my tostilocos

    My acai bowl was so watery

    Horrible customer service. the acai bowl taste like water, barely any fruit. lady over charged me. i didn't get my money back. to the owner of this place train your people how to do things properly. I don't recommended this place .

    Chocolate banana smoothie

    The customer service was terrible!! She was giving me my orders with attitude. Why hasn't she gotten fired? She's short dark skin toned and wears glasses sometimes. My smoothie is also runny and they didn't use actual bananas, they used "banana ice cream" Will not be going back! Angelito's is better!!!

    It's okay. No longer the best of its kind. Primarily for the prices. $8.50 for a large shake? Now I can find it way cheaper in San Diego County. There are just too many rivals now but it still stands its ground. It isn't terrible even in comparison. Times have simply changed for these kinds of joints. It's still a place I wouldn't mind going to if I were craving Latin snacking of this category. When they first came out they were a hit. Forget about it. They were hard to find and it all made sense, you go and get it or you miss out lol. Now there's a variety which is a plus for the customer. The taste is good for the shakes and ice cream. The shakes are just not worth that kind of money. all in all, I give it an okay.

    So much to choose from.

    Everything is amazing! I know because I sampled a lot of things. The price is right. The customer service is on point. It's super clean. Great place for kids!!

    Looking for a great place for ice cream and aqua frescas? THIS IS THE PLACE. The staff is kind, friendly and efficient. The facility is very clean. All drinks are freshly made and delicious. Pictured chocolate sprinkle waffle cone with Cookie Monster ice cream and pineapple, coconut, cucumber mint aqua Fresca You'll not be disappointed.

    A brand new ice cream shop in Vista. So many flavors, everything from avocado, Cheetos, mocha and names I do not recognize and cannot pronounce. I got two scoops of a mocha/caramel with pecans mix. OMG yum! It is easily found, lots of parking, lots of seating.

    So patient thank you for your help

Yeah, it's old, food is "ok' (3-stars but it's preliminary an ice cream place), it's a bit 'ghetto' and you need to pay attention as to when your order is ready (they won't call names, only orders) but it's Vista's institution! Serving perfect old fashioned soft serves, shakes and a variety of very affordable frozen treats (4 stars). Kids love this place. There is always a line and a bit of a wait. Service is mediocre at best. But... 5 stars because that's the local businesses we need and can't let go away: Vista greedy city hall is about to let it be demolished to build condos... Huge plus for: burger with special sauce, fresh fries, soft serves and banana splits!!!

I love churros, and they make theirs fresh while you wait, which makes it so much better then getting a churro that's been sitting under a heater and drying out. They have several varieties of churros and different ways that you can order them. They also serve soft serve vanilla ice cream. We got the vanilla soft serve along with the bag of churros, which contains three of them. They came out piping hot and fresh, covered and that delicious cinnamon sugar. They were excellent and paired with the ice cream, it was a nice treat. The ice cream had a good texture but did taste a bit artificial, but i definitely still enjoyed it. Bottom line, of you look he churros this is your spot. They also serve food, which we unfortunately didn't get to try on this visit. They do have a small parking lot in the back and also some tables outside to sit on.

    This is a long overdue review for Water Shack. I stumbled upon this place a few years ago when I…read morewas craving a no frills mom & pop style burger. To my surprise Water Shack's burgers were delicious and satisfying that I find myself coming back here ever so often. Their burgers aren't the heavy, greasy/high fat patties you would get from other places. However, their 1/4 lb patties are their smallest patties and heft makes for that ideal bun to burger ratio. Did I need to order double patties on most of my burger orders? Probably not. Their patties are on the leaner side but they aren't dry; and the fixings from any burger you choose will satisfy that meaty burger fix you're looking for. The Chicken Patty Melt is also a very tasty item. Very cheesy, buttery and crispy toasted bread with chicken breast. Their fries and onion rings also come air-fried so this place focuses more on the healthier comfort food options that wont leave you feeling heavy and drowsy. This place is also doubled as a purified water dispensary and also serves baked goods and ice cream. Love this type of no-frills, unassuming place with very friendly staff and serves up some delicious food!

If you need a quick, casual meal, and are out and about in the area, definitely check this spot out! Locals describe it as a hidden gem.

My favorite way to enjoy Wynston's is the ice cream flight with 4 small scoops of different flavors. While parking right in front of the place is often taken, there's a free garage nearby they validate for. So, if you love you some ice cream, head on over to Wynston's. You can take it from someone who makes their own frozen sweet creamy confections, Wynston's is the really good stuff.

It's really the best way to sample all their delicious flavors. I had to try their monthly flavor, 'What's Up, Doc?'. Carrot Cake Ice Cream? How?! Well, it's true. They turned a classic cake into delicious ice cream. The other 3 flavors... Obrigaderia Brazilian Truffle Lemon & the Blueberry Swirls Parmesan Apricot We couldn't pick a favorite flavor this time. All of them stood out in their own way. Such a cute little storefront...two tables inside, but plenty of seating outside. I remember when they were across the street, even smaller storefront....and now they have TWO locations in San Diego county. Team members are always smiling. You can tell the owners care about their employees...there's a sign up....this is a no-tip business. They pay their employees a livable wage. That, in itself, speaks volumes!
