    Kids ice cream cup - vanilla and marshmallows
    Natalie O.

    This is such a cute store! Ice cream is amazing! I really liked that we could add toppings. The egg puffs looked amazing and I think I'll try that next time! Despite it being busy, we got our order pretty quickly.

    Stopped by for a cold drink and some ice cream. Nice place with plenty parking. Good selection menu, staff were nice. Quick turnaround since I was the only customer there during late afternoon. Good drink & soft ice cream and hit the spot.

    1. The ice cream was pretty and well-crafted! The soda drink was refreshing! 2. The spot has fun casual vibes! The interior has cute decor! 3. The staff was friendly and it melt with my order! It was ready in less than 10 mins! 4. There is only indoor seatings! There are few tables! 5. Parking lot is small, and it can get crowded depending on time and day! There is street parking! Note: There is a restroom available for customers! Photo: Mango Mellow and Crystal Peach

    Ninja Soft Serve
    Alexis J.

    Nobibi is finally in the OC! This is one of my favorite spots when I would visit friends up in Claremont and I'm so happy they're here! I love Nobibi's soft serve options because they're not too sweet and there's a variety of things to order like drinks and cotton candy and they even have tacos at this location which is awesome! I visited today with some friends and got their ninja soft serve. Its hands down one of my favorite soft serves because you can really taste the chocolate and the pocky and oreo alongside it compliments it perfectly. My friend had their Oreo Midnight with cornflakes--do not skip out on cornflakes in your soft serve, its GOOD! Did I mention free toppings? There are free toppings. My only note is that the music was kinda loud at times, that's it! Thanks for making a friend outing lovely!

    I happened to spot Nobibi while driving through Garden Grove and decided to swing in and check it out. Ok I admit, as a dedicated Yelper I always have my head on a swivel looking for places to try. Turns out this was their grand opening, and I may have been one of their first customers (always fun to be an OG ). I ordered the milk-flavored soft serve with biscotti and wow... really, really good. The soft serve was ultra creamy and smooth, almost like premium ice cream instead of your typical soft serve. The caramel sauce was perfectly sweet and rich, and the biscotti cookie pieces were crispy and buttery, sprinkled on top and some along the sides of the cup. And the surprise bonus? There were little crispy bits sitting at the bottom of the dish too, adding the perfect crunch with every spoonful. The creaminess of the ice cream, the sweetness of the caramel, and the crispiness of the cookie all came together perfectly. Definitely a sweet treat that was worth the calories. They also had several other soft serve flavors like mango, black sesame, and milk tea, plus a solid menu of boba and specialty drinks. The owners and staff were super friendly and clearly excited to get things rolling. The inside has a cool, clean vibe and parking was easy. I saw there are already other Nobibi locations around Southern California, and this is the newest one to open in Central OC, near the foodie paradise of Little Saigon (GG, WM, SA)! Oh -- and extra bonus points for the cool long plastic spoons. Somehow they just feel fancy when you're digging into dessert I'll definitely be back. If you're nearby, stop in and give Nobibi a try. Highly recommend

    What I Ordered: Dubai Chocolate Ice Cream ($10.99) Matcha Latte ($6.99) Lychee Dragonfruit Fruit Tea Slush ($6.49) Uji Matcha Milk Frosty ($6.99) Food: New Dessert shop in Santa Ana! I've actually seen Nobibi locations all around Orange County, so it as nice seeing them opening up a new shop in Santa Ana. The Dubai Chocolate Ice Cream was a Chocolate Ice Cream base with a good amount of pistachios, Strawberries, and Kadayif. I would say the chocolate ice cream isn't a soft serve but a bit more on the icy end, which actually paired well with the strawberries and kadayif. There's been a craze with all of the Dubai Chocolate food items, and the ice cream does well replicating the dubai chocolate flavor in ice cream form. What surprised me the most was the Matcha Latte! I didn't expect that they would be using good quality matcha, but I was able to taste the strong and apparent flavors of matcha in the drink. While it was definitely on the sweeter end, I believe you can actually adjust the sweetness level to your taste. The Uji Matcha Milk Frost was also very good and had a decent matcha flavor. The drink also has cheese foam and oreo crumbs within the drink, which matches very well with the matcha! The Lychee Dragonfruit Fruit Tea Slush is a good choice if you are in the mood for fruity drinks! This one was topped with cheese foam, so make sure the mix well with the drink! Service: All of the staff members were fast and friendly. I went during their grand opening weekend, so there were SO MANY PEOPLE. Even when it was busy, the staff members made sure I was taken care of and checked in with me multiple times throughout my visit. Ambiance: Indoor and Outdoor Seating. The inside is not super spacious, but they have a lot in there like the crane machines and decorations to take pictures with. Parking lot is shared with other shops in the plaza, but they also have street parking available in the residential area right next to the shops.

    My sisters and I came for their soft opening and we all really enjoyed their ice cream! The soft serve is really creamy and flavorful, and I love that they don't skimp on the toppings. The portion sizes were good for the prices too. The shop itself is very cute inside and the workers were friendly as well.

    這次到 Nobibi 來,還是試他家花香口味系列,這是我點的是開心果口味再加上抹茶粉,比較可愛的是他們會放上幾朵小花,冰淇淋的部分沒有問題,但是我買的小蛋塔好像烤得沒有那麼脆吃起來就一點軟軟的,我覺得可能要再烤久一點會好吃很多

    best time at Nobibi  Lilian and Derek are nice and inviting. Everything was Absolutely delicious we can taste quality of ingredients.

    Sweet time at Nobibi with friends before the kids return to school.Delicious sweets. We could taste The quality of ingredients. The service was excellent. They are kind professional and talented creators of yumminess. The place is adorable and so enjoyable.

    Fruity pebbles
    Steven N.

    After a hearty meal, sometimes a dessert is warranted. In this situation, we opted to go to Nobibi for their ice cream. It was absolutely delicious. I had the fruity pebbles and it tasted sweet and fruity just like the cereal. The creaminess of the ice cream was balanced by sweetness of the topping. For some I can see it being too sweet, but for me it hit my sweet tooth perfectly!

    So, fam who lives out there wanted this place for dessert. I did not have any but things looked amazing. Decor was very cute and place was clean. Great for photos and they had crazy concoctions that everyone loved. I had a bite of old school vanilla ice cream and was delicious.

    Signature - Red bean and taro
    Julie N.

    My friend and I got the signature ice cream - red bean and taro to share and it was more than enough for both of us. The Red bean was not sweet but the taro was a good balance of flavor with it. We would definitely come back to try other flavors and you can't beat a portion that size for $7 anymore around here!

    Kathleen T.

    I was craving dessert and stopped by this new ice cream shop in my neighborhood! The workers were super sweet and were very fast with our orders! Cute little ice cream shop and they even collab with a taco truck and you can get $1 tacos if you show your receipt!

We ordered three things; mint chocolate chip, rose, and milk and cereal. All with a bubble waffle cone. The service was disappointing, the guy who worked there seemed like he didn't care and it was just another job. No life to him and was just rude about asking the code for the bathroom. The mint and chip is basic. Nothing too much about it. My kids like it, so I got it. Average 3/5. The rose ice cream tasted like a rose, it was pretty good and very floral. The disappointing part is I was hoping the ice cream would be shaped like a rose as depicted on the picture. Nope, just a scoop and left it as is. 5/5 for taste and 0/5 for presentation. The milk and cereal one was actually pretty good. Especially with Frosted Flakes in it. It literally taste like cereal. 5/5. I would give it a higher star if the service complimented it and th presentation of the rose ice cream did.

I truly love ice cream parlors and am glad Han's does well and happens to be right down the street from where I live. The service is always friendly, they always answer any questions and are attentive the whole interaction. The store itself has a good amount of seating with the neon signs glowing in the background. The smell of waffles cones lingers in the air as you enjoy your dessert. I will say I have only been to Han's for ice cream, this review bears no criticism on the food itself, however it does look good. The ice cream, from the flavors I've had are well made, smooth and creamy, not a single ice crystal to be found. The variety would be my one knock against Han's, in a world where other ice cream shops take it above and beyond Han's has many flavors that are pretty similar. However, Han's stays true to itself with its selection, and that can be a pro or a con depending on how you look at it, all I know is I love the coffee oreo and circus animal flavors. The munchie was a really nice surprise, if you've ever had an Its-Its, it's pretty much that with more flavors to boot.

The shop has a nostalgic, old-school vibe that makes it feel like a classic neighborhood ice cream spot. There are a few booths and tables available inside if you want to sit and enjoy your ice cream. Noticed the "Deli" sign when we arrived and were surprised to find out that Hans' is also a restaurant. It was interesting seeing the combination of deli/restaurant and homemade ice cream all in one place. Definitely seems like a spot where you could grab a meal and finish it off with something sweet afterward. As for the ice cream, there was a decent variety of flavors to choose from. One downside is that they don't offer samples, so I played it safe and stuck with flavors I already knew I'd generally enjoy rather than taking a chance on something new. I do wish sampling was an option, especially when trying a new ice cream shop and deciding between several flavors. While it was a pleasant stop, nothing about the ice cream or overall experience particularly stood out.

This place felt dangerously close to being at Five Guys Burger restaurant, the decor, the whole vibe that was attached to it. We basically had to stand in line like a fast food chain, like Burger King or McDonald's, and ordered ice cream. But the setup was and looked like five guys burgers. The overall experience here at Handel's Homemade Ice Cream shop in Irvine, California was about 10-15 minutes. My group of 5 each got something and I ended up with a pint of their chocolate ice cream. It was a part of my birthday dinner celebration on a weekend in September 2026. Thankful that my purchase was paid for by family. It was around 8pm when we walked in on a Saturday night. There was no visible chairs and tables to sit on so we ended up eating it on the way to the car. I myself ended up eating my pint of ice cream back in my hotel room later that evening while enjoying late night tv. And at Handel's Ice cream shop, it was nice. There were a bunch of high school kids working that night and it was nice to see all of them working professionally and being responsible and respectful. It was honestly cool that there's some good in the world these days. I enjoyed that aspect of this experience and got in ice cream for my birthday celebration. The overall experience and atmosphere of Handel's Homemade Ice Cream in Irvine, California was nice and casual, while being very much expedient and enjoyable as the same time. While there weren't any tables inside the ice cream shop, there was limited seating outside the store, but they were occupied at the time I was there. The restaurant was kind of standing room only, so there was a bunch of people already in line when my group came in to check out the scene. For the most part though, it was nice to have an ice cream shop nearby to complete the birthday dinner ensemble after a ramen dinner with family. Ice cream is always a good choice for anyone and everyone especially children. If you're in the Irvine area and love to grab your ice cream fix, consider coming to Handel's homemade ice cream shop and tell them your favorite flavors. They just might have yours in stock. I was happy that they had my classic chocolate readily available and there's a few chocolate inspired creations as well. Really nice and definitely recommended and even suggested if you're in the Irvine area and want a good dessert to end the work day or weekend evening. Or ice cream just because. Made my trip to Irvine worth it for sure. Handel's Ice cream shop is located in Irvine, California. It's physically located at 5365 Alton Parkway in the heart of Irvine. They accept major credit cards as well as cash. For myself though, it was paid for by my family because it was my birthday treat and it was great. So that's that. As far as parking goes, there's generous parking options here if you are interested and love to drive. If you're the type who loves public transportation, consider taking the necessary transportation options to get you to here in Irvine and then to Handel's Ice Cream shop. It's in a cozy part of the shopping center destination. Kinda funny how there's an ice cream shop here and a McDonald's next door. Maybe I guess McDonald's ice cream doesn't compare to Handel's and it's homemade ice cream and it's many flavors to choose from. And so, consider yourself informed that Handel's homemade ice cream shop is good for your soul. If you're ever in the Irvine area and need your ice cream daily fix, consider coming over to this part of Irvine and get in what you need the most. I guarantee it. One of the better ones I've had in a while. 5.0 stars for the overall experience. Support local! A+
