I went into Mashti's this morning, and I honestly couldn't have asked for a better experience. The worker who helped me was incredibly kind, welcoming, and genuinely helpful, which made the whole experience one I won't forget. I'm currently visiting from Texas, and it was such a pleasure getting to meet Diana. She was so friendly and attentive, and you can really tell that she takes pride in what she does. Her customer service was outstanding, and she made me feel welcomed from the moment I walked in. The ice cream was awesome and worth trying here! read more

Okay, this is ice cream is delectable! I'm so glad we tried this! Their rose ice creams are to die for! And the sticky funnel cake looking dessert is A MUST! I believe we ordered mango, dates made with rose water, and pistachio and rose water l, ugh so so good! Service is alright, spot is small and cute with a few tables and parking lot read more

Some of the worst service in LA but the best ice cream. When we arrived we greeted the staff but they just stared at us. It started to get uncomfortable as we looked at the plackards so I told them we needed a few minutes, no response they just kept staring. We arrived two hours before closed. When asked the worker what a flavor they liked was they said they were allergic to all the ice creams. No help, no suggestion, no recommendations. VERY UNCOMFORTABLE. Did not feel welcomed AT ALL. Not giving one star because the ice cream was superb. Will be coming back but hopefully the people that worked the shift the evening of 9/12 won't be there. read more

I never knew that area had an ice cream store, I never even knew this place existed! Last week, we just stopped by for a quick scoop, and it was actually pretty interesting, they have so many fun and unique flavors. Like saffron etc. I tried the date fruit, which I already love as a fruit, and the ice cream was so so yummy too. I also got what I believe was a dragon fruit snow. It was bright and citrusy, and I really liked how the two flavors worked together. Such a fun little find! read more

Came to Mashti Malone's because a friend had been wanting to try it and we were nearby. Got to sample a few of their flavors, and they do have some flavors are very interesting/unique. I really liked the Orange Blossom Pistachio, but hubs liked their Almond Pistachio. Enjoyed it because it was creamy and not overly sweet. My only gripe is that they charge more for using card and it wasn't technically disclosed until I noticed it on the receipt. Shared parking lot available in the plaza they're located in, and they have a couple of designated parking spots right in front of the store. read more

I got a double scoop with vegan turkish coffee and vegan saffron rosewater pistachio. The vegan turkish coffee was AMAZING, it had a strong coffee flavor and I loved the texture, which I can only describe as stretchier than most ice cream I've had in the past. The vegan saffron rosewater pistachio on the other hand was just okay, I did really like the unique flavor however it was quite icy instead of creamy. I'm not sure if I just got unlucky, or if because this flavor is water based or something the texture is different than the coffee flavor I got. They have a ton of vegan flavors, with both ice cream and sorbet options. I believe they offer vegan versions of all of their signature flavors which is nice. The girl working inside the store was quite friendly. She let me sample a few flavors before buying. The store was very clean, and they have some tables outside where you can eat. read more

This ice cream is very unique. Not too sweet so it's easy to eat a lot of it I love the non dairy vegan flavors. Service did not stand out to me but the ice cream is very good and I will be coming back read more

So many flavors at this Persian ice cream store. Staff was helpful and let us sample many flavors. The flavors fall more towards the floral side. The mint chip ice cream was not overwhelmingly minty nor did it taste like toothpaste. Turkish coffee tastes just like a light and creamy coffee. Earl grey was overly floral and didn't have much tea taste. Strawberry was a nice fruity flavor. Seating is mostly outside except for small tables inside. Overall a great ice cream spot for a sweet treat! read more

The ice cream was a bit too floral and sweet for my taste, it honestly reminded me of incense sticks or a fragrant hotel body wash. I tried a few flavors since they sounded interesting, but I noticed that more than one had that same overly perfumed sweetness. My boyfriend and I both noticed it and weren't fans. I'm curious whether that's just their signature style or if maybe the batch that day was a little off. Would love to hear from others who've been before. In the end, I went with cookies and cream to play it safe, and my boyfriend got the banana foster mashti. "Mashti" is their style of serving it, they mash a scoop of ice cream between two wafers, and it's the same price as a regular scoop. read more

The Persian cucumber flavor is so refreshing. The ice cream is super soft and creamy. If you love quality ice cream you need to try this place. The variety of Persian flavors is amazing. It's very clean and the service is good. Parking can be tough if it's during a busy time but if it's during the day parking is a breeze! read more

There are ice cream shops, and then there are places that feel like a little cultural experience. That's exactly what visiting Mashti Malone's Ice Cream feels like every single time. We went on a Saturday night and parking was surprisingly a breeze, which already felt like a win in Los Angeles. The staff were incredibly kind and patient, happily letting us sample flavors before deciding. What really impressed me is that I've seen this place absolutely packed before, yet the service never loses its warmth or consistency. Even when it's busy they still take the time to help you explore flavors and enjoy the experience. One of my favorite things about coming here is trying something new every time. This visit I sampled the Oreo mint, which was solid and refreshing, probably a four out of five for me. I also tried the lavender flavor which was interesting and fragrant, maybe not something I would order again, but I genuinely love that this place gives you the opportunity to explore flavors you just don't see in typical American ice cream shops. That's the magic here. Persian desserts bring a completely different level of creativity and tradition, and you can really taste that difference. What I appreciate most is how this place celebrates Persian culture through dessert. The flavors feel elegant, unique, and thoughtfully crafted in a way that you just don't find in the average ice cream spot. It's the kind of place that reminds you that food can be a cultural bridge. I absolutely love coming here and every visit reminds me why this place has such a loyal following. Consistently great service, adventurous flavors, and a vibe that feels welcoming every time. This place is a gem. read more

Great service and unique flavors. The inside of the parlor does not fit for the location. It's very cute, light and airy, but the plaza is not. They are known for their saffron ice cream as well as rosewater base. I ordered a scoop and waffle cone and each bite tasted better than the last. The waffle cone was also perfect. read more

Reviews for Mashti Malone's are amazing so I was excited, but it was disappointing. I got the butter pecan and the pistachio almond. Pistachio almond was better. Fair warning, the flavors are really aromatic and have stuff in them you don't usually see in ice cream. Didn't bother me, but neither one tasted fresh. The girl working was the worst part. Zero customer service and she looked miserable. Maybe she hates her job, maybe it was just a bad day, but it wasn't a good time. Wouldn't go back and I don't recommend it. Way too much good ice cream out there to bother with another visit. read more

Mash Malone's is always a nice place to go for a little treat with friends. The ice cream is delicious and tasty. The service is great. Give it a try should you be in the Hollywood area at La Brea. read more

First impression- It's pretty clean and bright. I'd say pretty inviting. Parking- There's a shared lot outside with plenty of parking. Ice cream - 2 flavors even for 1 scoop of ice cream are apparently charged at a two scoop price so just be aware Flavors - pomegranate sorbet - date fruit - Persian cucumber - I believe they have the seeds from actual cucumbers in the ice cream so be aware of that. I got the cucumber flavor at first I enjoyed it but by the time I ate a third of the scoop the ice cream was really starting to taste icy? Just a strange consistency I was expecting something similar to soft serve. The positives is it's a great palette cleansing flavor! Service- Helpful! Overall- Maybe I'd be inclined to come back if someone else wanted to go but truthfully it wasn't good enough to come back. That's just my take other people love this place. read more

Delicious and fresh once cream, I had the traditional Faloodeh with Saffron Pistachio. Very creamy and delicious. The Persian grocery stores in San Diego sell their Faloodeh and saffron ice cream sandwiches which I've had many times so it was really cool to get to try the products straight from the source! This location is in a strip mall that had limited parking. There is a Persian restaurant next door by the same owner. Food was good there too! Service was fine, the young man was nice enough, it was slow and he may just have been bored. There was some seating inside, we took ours to go. 5 stars for quality 100%, nothing else stands out as great but the ice cream is why we went so we were happy! read more

If you've never thought of Persian ice cream before, you need to add it to your menu because it's a pleasant surprise. There are few places in Persian Square in Westwood that have them but the other famous spot is Mashti Malone's. It looks like a small hole in the wall but it is really popular! you can try a few samples before you make your decision. There are the classic flavors and then a few other Persian specific flavors (rose water) that would be surprise that work. The service is fast! Perfect for a late night snack! highly recommend!!! read more

Two scoops ends up costing more than $10. Plus the tip defaults to 20% on the machine at payment time. That's why I will not return. Also, the ice cream looks good, but the taste is bland. read more

Mashti's!!!!! We live about 25 minutes away in the valley. Can't tell you how many times we have driven just to satisfy our craving of this ice cream. Yes, it is that good. My favorites are saffron rose water, cherry faloodeh, orange blossom and herbal snow sorbet. Omg-so good!!!! read more

What better than this after dining on some delicious Persian food. Beautiful and amazing flavors of ice cream, both the standards and originals. I believe downtrodden fits. In an area not great, but free parking...so that's pretty good. An oasis awaits. Vert cute inside. Don't be afraid to ask to try samples of 1, 2, 3, or more. Once you decide, you can get 1-2-3 flavors in 4 different size cups. I went with the Date/Fig, OMG, and the Rosewater Pistachio. Love. read more

This is off of La Brea and Sunset. The parking can be a little difficult but we were able to snag a perfect spot! There's a huge sign in front of Mashti Malone. As you walk in, it looks like your basic ice cream shop but don't let that fool you! They had a few specific Persian ice cream flavors. Such as saffron rosewater pistachio and Faloodeh. It's so good! Perfect for a summer night. It is a little bit pricier than most ice cream places but still worth it. They also have some ice cream tubs for sale ( I think it might be their best sellers) as well as the viral sour cherry lavashak products. You can also put some lemon syrup and rose water syrup on your ice cream. A perfect touch! The customer service was nothing to write home about. He was patient as I was trying to figure out what I wanted lol. I can imagine it being really busy later on in the day as well as the weekends. Will I go here again? heck yes. read more

Mashti Malone has been around longer than the words "artisanal ice cream" existed and has outlast many business in the game. They have been serving up delicious handmade ice cream for years, using the freshest ingredients but what keeps them ahead of the game is that they are known for their Persian ice cream, sorbets and sweets. I absolutely love the saffron rose, pistachio, orange blossom and rose, faloudeh, just to name a few. Don't forget the cherry syrup! The tartness pairs up with the flavors nicely. It's been awhile since I have been there but the space looks smaller than when I last went. there are a few tables outside and a few indoors, in case you wanted to sit and enjoy your ice cream. Service was friendly and efficient. Now that the summer is around the corner, come by and enjoy the ice cream, especially if you love light sweet floral tastes. read more

Came last Sunday night, got the non-dairy saffron ice cream, and it was chalky bc the lady scooped it from the old batch they put on top of the new batch. With very little care. If you see it chalky Dont serve it. Scoop from the best. Care. When I went to return it, she said, "It is bc it is non-dairy," which is an insult to both Mr. Mashti Malone and me. To me, bc as an Iranian who has had both the dairy and non-dairy versions all my life, I know both versions of this ice cream can and are creamy. To Mr. Malone bc even here it has been creamy in the past. Be as enthusiastic as your customer when selling an item that solicites enthusiasm. Get two stars bc fallodeh was great, and she swapped my chulkuly ice cream for faloodeh. read more

This Persian ice cream shop is a true gem and so popular for a reason! They have a huge variety of flavors you simply won't find anywhere else. I'm absolutely in love with their cucumber ice cream, saffron, and their falude, which is a delicate blend of noodles, rosewater, and ice. I also love their Dates ice cream, plus flavors like pomegranate and guava. so many unique fruity options. I always get a trio of scoops, and I'm never disappointed. The prices are fair not too high, not too low which is perfect for indulging in a special treat. That said, the staff could definitely improve. I noticed they often hire teens who are just on their phones or chatting, and it would make a big difference if they stayed more focused, especially on cleaning the glass display, which gets smudged often. Still, I give this place 5 stars because the flavors and quality of ice cream are top-notch. I just hope the management keeps a closer eye on the staff so the whole experience stays as sweet as the ice cream! read more

Such a gem in Hollywood. Mashti Malone's Ice Cream is especially perfect on a hot day when you want something refreshing but a little different. They have the most amazing Persian/Middle Eastern-inspired ice creams and sorbets, and truly none of them disappoint. Everything tastes fresh and light, not overly sweet or heavy. Pro tip: don't miss the sour cherry syrup on the counter to the left after you order. My husband spotted it and added it on -- total game changer. My personal favorites so far are the saffron and pistachio (so rich and fragrant) and the pomegranate (super bright and refreshing). Already planning my next visit to try more flavors. Definitely a go-to spot. read more

Okay. Get ready to be blown away! I have been coming here for decades!! Seriously. And their ice creams, etc., are amazing! The service is always friendly and they let you try a few flavors. The ambience is also very chill as they have both indoor and outdoor seating. Not sure if there's a bathroom. Parking is available but it is limited. So either park on the street or wait until someone leaves. You won't be let down doing here for dessert. They offer an Espresso Ice Cream that just kills!!!

This place automatically deserves 5 stars because there's a FREE parking lot and I didn't have to drive around in circles looking for paid street parking!! HOWEVER, even without the parking perk this place is so so so so good! Service is GREAT!! You can sample as many flavors as you like, and although there was only one person working when I was there he never made me feel rushed even when there were other customers in line. I wish I got his name but if the manager sees this, you should give him a raise haha Ok now to the main part - the ice cream! So so so impressed by the variety of flavors this shop has to offer! I truly believe there is something that anyone would like because the flavors cater to any and every taste profile. I got a double scoop of the Matcha and Mango flavors and they both were so good, but I sampled a bunch of the other flavors and they were all delicious so you can't go wrong with any choice!! The serving size is also very generous, I could've split the double with someone! There's seats inside and also outdoor seating too!! read more

Lots of different choices of flavors to choose from, staff was friendly and let us all try the flavors, some was unique and place was clean.

We walked from Hollywood and found this ice cream shop on the way. A few letters were missing from the sign, which made the corner shop look ominous. But, emboldened by the good reviews, we marched towards it. When we approached, we saw a bustling shop filled with ice cream enjoyers even at 8pm. There was casual outdoor seating for groups. The workers were quick and gave out samples and every flavor was uniquely good. I got the pomegranate sorbet and pistachios. The sorbet was not too sweet and refreshing while the pistachios tasted rich and nutty (not artificial). I would definitely come back! M read more

I've been eating Persian ice cream my whole life, and I love the fact that there is a dedicated place for this kind of ice cream, always available at my disposal. Mashti Malone is an institution. They have been around forever, and they are the standard when it comes to Persian rose water and saffron ice cream. They also have an amazing faloodeh, which is a starch noodle dessert in semi frozen syrup. They also have a variety of regular ice cream flavors, if you don't fancy the Persian ice creams, but trust me and get the Persian ice cream, especially the one that has pistachios inside. Also, the People are friendly, and will help you however you want. This place is awesome. read more
