Dessert- Go get some! Smooth as silk and mind bogglingly balanced among sugar, ube and dairy(if that makes any sense). Cleanliness- messy cause they dont have time to clean up with so many people in line. Parking - street Restroom- yes there is one, but didnt use. read more

Somisomi - Ube and pittashio - Desserts Near Me - Long Beach, California

LOVE Somisomi. The ice cream is very rich, so at least for me personally, it feels more worth it since it's harder to eat it all They have rotating flavors, and every flavor that I've had was really good. They're open pretty late, the service is great, and they're standing room in the building. If you wanna stay there and eat it. There's street parking outside, I've never had an issue trying to find parking since there's a good amount of neighborhoods nearby. read more

Ordering here was easy. Had the milk and ube swirl and the pistachio. Both were tasty. The topping choices are great. The fish were crispy. We had one with Nutella filling and the other wirh black sesame. The black sesame was my favorite. The cups look so small but it's really filling. Only negative is that there's no seating. read more

I like coming here because the ice cream taste great combined with the fish shaped waffles that can have Nutella filled inside of them. I would place my order directly with a cashier because the self service kiosk seems to usually have a delay... This place always crowded and is loud with all the chattering going on. read more

Somisomi - Cookies'N'cream - Desserts Near Me - Long Beach, California

Somi Somi is so yummy! Not only do they have the cutest presentation with the waffle fish, macaron, and fruit but the flavors are delicious too. My personal favorites are the cookies n cream and Ube twist. Don't forget to pair your ice cream with a tasty stuffing. I love to get the Nutella filling. This place is always busy but it makes sense, because the vibe is inviting, quick service, and the in steam cuteness factor. The shop has a few photo opp areas. Don't forget to snap your creation and share with your friends and family! read more

We visited on a Friday afternoon and it was empty. The cashier was also serving the ice cream. There aren't any chairs so you need to stand up to eat your ice cream. Every thing looks very clean. We ordered the cookies & cream & ube with nutella filling. It was good. read more

Nice establishment with a trendy vibe. I enjoyed the blended texture of the soft serve and the warm waffle. Although there's not a huge variety of ice cream flavors, there's a lot of different combinations that can be made with customizations read more

After a day of strolling, we decided to visit Somisomi and finally try it. We ordered via their kiosk, which was quick and easy. They offer soft serve ice cream with Taiyaki fish-shaped waffles w/ fillings and toppings, plus drinks like milk tea and cold brew. Today, we went for simple ice cream -- matcha for me, milk for Izzy. It was delicious, but we couldn't finish it. The plain waffle complemented the ice cream well. The little guy loved it and even made a video. Lol Restroom on site and no place to sit just fyi. read more

Such a great sweet treat! All the ice cream flavored are great and the taiyaki is crispy and sweet. I love the custard and matcha fillings for the Taiyako. The inside is cute and IG worthy. Every time I have gone I had to order in a kiosk but the service is fast and the girls making the treats are nice. read more

Somisomi - Desserts Near Me - Long Beach, California

I'm so happy there's a Somisomi in Bixby! It's on the busy part of Atlantic, so you can just walk there for a sweet treat after indulging on yummy ramen or sushi from down the street. What I love about this place is that the soft serve isn't too sweet! (Isn't that the ultimate compliment for dessert nowadays?) It's a clean, very casual establishment with only standing room available to chow down on your treats. My go-to order is the Upside down Ah Boong (the goldfish shaped waffle cone) with Nutella or custard filling. You can't go wrong with any of their soft serve flavors, but my favorite is Ube! They have rotating flavors, like swirl of the week or flavors based on location, so keep that in mind. I'm so excited to try their banana pudding flavor! read more

Somisomi - No register - Desserts Near Me - Long Beach, California

SomiSomi is a fun, casual spot to get ice cream. I wouldn't say that the ice cream is very good, but it is fun. The real highlight here is the taiyaki, which is a fish-shaped pancake that you can fill with various things, like custard, nutella, and more. They are made with a batter that is crisp on the outside and very chewy on the inside. You can get a whole box of different flavors to try, which is what I did, and it may be the best way to try all of the different fillings. read more

Somisomi - taiyaki - Desserts Near Me - Long Beach, California

I went here on June 7, 2024 at night. It was for dessert after dinner. I ordered the matcha ah boong. Matcha ice cream was tasty and pretty cold. I chose Oreo crumbs for the topping and I liked the texture with the ice cream. The filling might've been Nutella or I didn't choose a filling. It took around 15 minutes to get it because it was pretty busy. It sucks that they don't accept cash. Maybe it's because they don't have a cash drawer. There was music playing in a speaker. It was pretty bright inside. read more

Somisomi - Matcha ah boong - Desserts Near Me - Long Beach, California

Somisomi is somisomi delicious! It's a fun and unique Korean dessert called "ah boong", a fish-shaped waffle cone called taiyaki filled with your choice of filling and topped with soft serve. You choose your flavor of soft serve, choose your filling (I like the custard) and add any toppings you'd like. The dessert overall is slightly less sweet but still just as satisfying. read more

Great experience. I'm usually iffy about places with multiple locations, but this one was really cool when I visited. Quick and efficient, and I got exactly what I wanted. They put together my order nicely and it was really good. Not too sweet, just right. Pretty solid location. read more

This treat is filling. Like dinner in a cup. Everything is thought out- from the filling options to the toppings- to the waiting area with counter tops.

Somisomi - Matcha - Desserts Near Me - Long Beach, California

Stopped by Somisomi right after eating next door for a quick dessert, and it was the perfect choice. I got the cookies and cream with matcha swirl soft serve and 5 taiyakis -- everything was delicious. The taiyakis were soft, warm, and freshly made, which made the ice cream combo even better. The cookies and cream with matcha swirl was such a good mix of flavors -- sweet, creamy, and perfectly balanced. The interior felt warm and welcoming, and Celeste was very helpful, friendly, and fast. She made the whole experience smooth! Definitely a great spot for dessert! read more

Somisomi - Cookies and cream with matcha swirl and 5 taiyakis. Delicious! - Desserts Near Me - Long Beach, California

Somi Somi is always a favorite! The quality is pretty consistent across locations, which is nice. I love that you can order quickly and easily on their tablet. My friend got the banana pudding soft serve with the taiyaki and I got the hotteok and cheddar cheese taiyaki. The banana pudding soft serve was subtle and sweet and the taiyaki was warm, chewy, and comforting. They even had a cute Instagram photo op spot! Great, dependable place for late night dessert :) read more

Amazing & cute little shop- super clean, and great service. My little one was craving a "fish cone" that he saw on a feed so I had to take him. He wanted Ube ice cream with sprinkles and it was delivered with a smile. I got Matcha and it was amazing. I took a little nibble of the Ube ice cream and it was delicious too. Both were super smooth and just the right amount of sweet. The little macaroon cookies on top are actually quite good. I think next time I'll go back and try the Earl gray.... read more

Great soft serve and taiyaki but this location has no seating inside or outside. During a summer visit we asked for water (tap water for our dog since it was getting a bit hot) and they refused, saying they weren't allowed. Lacks a personal touch. read more

Great soft serve and great value! The ordering system works great in store. Not sure if you can preorder, it's not obvious. The taiyaki is fried as you wait and their add ons are minimal, but the soft serve is great! It was a good value for two. read more

Absolutely delicious. Great service. Even the trainee was amazing. The only reason I'm not giving them 5 stars is because the counters were super dirty. I can see that the business model is not to have any chairs or seating area for patrons. I can accept that, but the few countertops that they have for people to stand and enjoy their ice cream were not usable simply because of how dirty they were so it was very inconvenient not to be able to put things down or to lean anywhere. read more

My absolute favorite treat after a nice sushi roll or ramen bowl and conveniently there's a great spot next door that has both! I love the variety of options here and that you can swirl a few of the flavors together. I went with the upside down filled with Nutella and the vanilla-chocolate swirl. The employees were quick and made sure to ask if I wanted any toppings or strawberries on top. It's very vibrant and bright inside and they even have a fun little photo-op moment where you can look like you're straight out of an IG photo. Love this place! Super filling and you can easily share if you don't want a whole one to yourself. read more

Somisomi was yummy for myself and my little one. We got the Ube ice cream inside a Taiyaki Japanese fish filled with Nutella and it was sooo goood but a bit too rich at the end I couldn't finish the tail of the fish too much Nutella. (You don't have to get a filling). Then we got the milk and chocolate soft serve in a cup. We are so excited to finally say we tried it. The register girl was there taking orders and then she was gone and told her co workers something and went to the back. Then we waited and finally someone that works there pouring the ice cream said we can order thru the kiosk if we're ready and I was like ummm you could have said that sooner lady. Anywho, she was nice she gave me an extra cup and spoon because I ordered the Taiyaki fish but I wanted it upside down and I guess I didn't order it correctly but you can just flip the fish yourself into a cup lol. The place was busy so it was first Fridays so the ambiance was loud and busy busy I almost didn't want to make like but it went fast despite the girl at the register walking away. Thankful for a nice dessert place that's not too pricy and it's delicious. read more

The soft serve is delicious, and the value for the amount of ice cream you get is pretty unmatched ($4.50 for a pretty heavy soft serve). I love how they had 6 different flavors to choose from in addition to offering their swirl flavors for that day. We also got the taiyaki (2 for $4.50) and it's pretty big in size as well, maybe a little bigger than the palm of my hand - also had a chewy mochi- consistency that I enjoyed. Great place for some after-dinner or late night ice cream (open till 11 pm on fridays and saturdays!). read more

Glad to have Somisomi in long beach. Came here with wife after eating great sushi next door at Te-buru and ordered a milk-flavored soft serve for her and a nutella taiyaki for me. As far as desserts go, it's simple and delicious. It's a great addition to Bixby Knolls and the price point is very reasonable. While you can order their soft serve with taiyaki as a cone, I think that ordering them separately is my play moving forward. I loved that our taiyaki was steaming hot and our milk ice cream was refreshingly cold. read more

Doesn't make any sense that they cannot make them if they have the items, and it's still showing on their menu. I cannot eat ice cream! read more

The servers were very helpful and supper fast. This place was very well kept and really clean. If you're in the area and craving something sweet definitely stop by and give them a try i promise you won't be disappointed! read more

This place is great, the only downside is parking is difficult to find when it's busy and there's limited inside space with no seating at all. This location is a small clean, fairly busy location in the Bixby Knolls area of Long Beach. The taiyaki is soft and fresh and the ice cream options are great...overall will definitely be back for a quick dessert on the go. read more

I stopped by today because my sister said they had limited time Dubai chocolate taiyaki and said it was good. We purchased the 5 for 9.95 deal. All favors were good... we ordered Nutella, Oreo and the Dubai. For an extra $2 for Dubai was so disappointed there was barely anything in it!! My sis was surprised too because she had just gone 2 days prior and said it was stuffed for an extra $2 it's not worth it. read more

This is my go to spot for a dessert after grabbing a meal in Bixby Knolls! They are open pretty late, making it the perfect convenient stop. The soft serve is affordable and big, and it's shareable between two people. My favorite flavor is the matcha or the matcha milk swirl, but the swirls change every week. The taiyaki is also a great dessert, crunchy on the outside, and soft and mochi-like on the inside. My favorite fillings are the nutella and the red bean! read more

Chose Somi Somi after a friend got me a gift card only to come to the location and be told I can't use it because the person didn't know how to apply it. Super disappointed.
