    Yummy

    Delicious first time here and will be coming back Service was friendly and ambiance was welcoming

    Upside down Ahboong

    We love this place!!! We have tried their soft serve along with their taiyaki. Everything is so good and the service is always great. The only thing I do wish they did are samples of the soft serve but it's okay. It's nice and clean when you walk in there they even have complimentary water.

    My sister introduced me to Somi Somi earlier this year when we realized they opened this location and it is SO yummy. I am lactose intolerant so I rarely get to enjoy any kind of ice cream unless it's dairy free. Somi somi's matcha flavor is dairy free and the fish taiyakis are like a very fresh waffle with your filling of choice (I get Nutella). They're SO good. They also come out with special seasonal flavors. The service is usually quick even when busy. The ambiance is nice. Everyone is always thoroughly enjoying their dessert. I have never once seen anybody complain or not like it! 100/10

    Yummy!

    Delicious, cool and cute treat during this heat wave! I ordered the cookies and cream swirl with ube, Nutella filling and Oreo and biscoff toppings with a macaron. Wish I could taste the ube better but it was still good. Tasted and looked more like black sesame ice cream to me so I'm not mad because I love the taste of black sesame. They also offer unlimited toppings. No line on a Wednesday and cashier was very kind and friendly.

    I've been to several Somi Somi's and I'm glad this location is able to add to the consistency with the chain of dessert places. Serving up Korean soft serve, Somix2 is worth a taste especially if you just finished eating at the Handroll place next door! Parking is easy and there is plenty of space for everyone. When you walk through the front door, you will notice a kiosk on your left hand side. The workers are busy cooking up your taiyaki and serving you ice cream with toppings galore, so there will not be an actual register for you to order at. You will first be asked to place your phone number before ordering, so you can join their rewards program. As usual, my fiancé and I have a plan: I get two fresh taiyakis (Nutella flavored and custard flavored) while he gets the soft serve in a cup (cookies and cream was the choice today). They serve the taiyaki piping hot! I break apart my taiyaki and dip it into his soft serve. This way, I get flavored taiyaki with the deliciousness. I noticed this location served coffee floats. I also saw several teenagers get their strawberry milk drinks. That shall be next on my to-do list!

    She's doing the job of 3 people!!!

    Long wait and the one and only cashier did not even tell us order from the kiosk only! There should have been a sign notating that otherwise everyone is waiting around for no reason. Unbelievable for a big store with only one worker...this is not Mexico. Side note: big kudos to the young lady working as fast as she can alone! She did the job for 3 people. Give her a raise. We left her with a $5 tip. Ice cream and waffle fish was delicious. Tried black sesame, milk, strawberry, ube.

    We've been here twice since they opened, and I really wanted to love this location... but it's just not hitting the same. First off, service isn't the greatest. The space is also lacking seating-- there are only a few stand-up shelves inside similar to Mira Mesa, but come on, you have ALL that empty space! For context, we used to live in Mira Mesa and would go to that location all the time. Their taiyaki was always made fresh-- warm, crispy on the outside, soft on the inside. At this Temecula location, the taiyaki has been HARD AS A ROCK both times. They seem to pre-make them and have fans blowing on them, which completely dries them out. That's honestly the biggest disappointment. Taiyaki should be hot and fresh-- that's kind of the whole point..... The ice cream itself is still good, and I do appreciate the rotating flavors and the variety of toppings. That part is consistent. But overall, the quality just isn't at the same level as the San Diego spots. Hoping management tightens things up because it has so much potential.

    Ended the night with some matcha ice cream with Nutella stuffed Fish waffle! They had a new flavor: cherry blossom! Very subtly but whimsical, I'd say it was a great ambience! Servers are fast or they have an iPad kiosk when lines are slower for faster service!

    Food: 5 Service: 4.5 Ambiance: 4 I've been to SomiSomi in San Diego before and always enjoyed it but for some reason the Temecula location is just on another level. I've visited twice now and even though there were some people there each time the service was quick and friendly. We have had the cold brew (ok!), taiyaki (warm and filling) and soft serve (creamy and delicious!). The ube, matcha, strawberry/banana pudding soft serve and all are so tasty! We've also tried red bean and custard fillings for the taiyaki. Everything is yummy and aesthetically pleasing and you honestly can't go wrong. There isn't really a place to sit down and eat but they have tables where you can enjoy your treats while standing up and they also have some water if you need it as well. I recommend this place to get your soft serve on!

    SomiSomi has made its way to Temecula! A rarity once consolidated only to LA or San Diego's foodie scenes has made its reach to our side of the Inland Valley. This is definitely a must try if you're craving something sweet. My personal favs are the crispy taiyakis with a spongey bite before you reach the warm gooey filling of your choice. You can't go wrong with a classic custard, but the sweetness scale has no limit--from Nutella to a milder matcha or black sesame filling. I personally don't gravitate towards soft serve, but aside from special swirl combinations, they also offer a topping bar selection to further customize your sweet treat. Highly recommend!

    It's located at the corner of Promenade in Temecula a little tucked away. It's nice because they have a ton of benches and umbrellas you can sit outside to enjoy your ice cream. The store is nice and clean. There was only one worker when we went. She was quick and friendly. They have a handful of different soft serves and they'll swap out which swirls flavors they have. I usually get the matcha, but I tried the matcha strawberry swirl today. It was a great mix of flavors! I like getting the ahboong where the ice cream comes swirled on top of the fish bread (not made from real fish), but they have different options as well. You can get the fish bread on top or just in the cup! They also sell the fish bread on the side. They offer different filling flavors and toppings!

    The shell was delicious & the Oreo and strawberry ice cream were delicious. Wasn't a huge fun of the matcha flavor...

    New location For ice cream and waffle place they do have a large selection They make their fish waffle comes fresh to order too Service is friendly and careful too Too bad the little macaroon was a bit stale but quite colorful Black sesame tastes very Asian-- not for the faint of heart The he hotteok was really Korean flavor with the nutty sweetness - yummy Very fresh and authentic A meal in itself

They appear to be one of the few authorized local retailers carrying some of the harder-to-find NeeDoh releases, yet I recently saw individual Halloween NeeDohs priced at nearly $25 EACH. When I asked about the significant markup, I was told that this was "fair market value" because resellers are selling them for similar prices. That explanation really bothered me. An authorized retailer purchasing directly through the brand is very different from a reseller on the secondary market. Families shouldn't have to pay reseller-level prices at a local authorized retailer simply because an item is popular or difficult to find. I love supporting small businesses and understand that they need to make a profit, but nearly $25 for an individual NeeDoh that is intended to retail for significantly less feels excessive. There are so many families and kids searching for these products, and I wish the pricing reflected that rather than what resellers are able to get online. Unfortunately, the experience left me really disappointed and hesitant to shop here again.

Inside, the ambiance reminds me of Nor Cal - SF with a cool neighborhood restaurant where the surrounding area melts away. It's classy yet unpretentious. We took my Yelp friend Lori out for her birthday and we all chose the price fixe meal. The entrance can be confusing only because the front door jams shut and one has to go through the back of the restaurant. You get 4 course plus a bread course and amuse bouche. Let's pause for the bread course. This bite sized piece of heaven is otherworldly. They need to serve more of it throughout the meal. The chef's starter was lovely and then we settled into our meal. It will be European style service so definitely let them know if you need to hit a show or movie. From the four courses we tried a bit of everything: Beef tartar (wonderful and innovative version of this dish), foraged mushrooms, charred cabbage, beet passionfruit salad, filet mignon, duck confit, and the only dessert that matters: charred butter cake. All were stellar!! Not a miss on the menu and all at 5 star quality. We also had tea and a cocktail, again both were outstanding. The service needs refinement though. It's a step below Michelin level fine dining indeed. I brought two bottles of wine, corkage $25 each, and never once was our glasses filled. I filled up everyone's glasses all night. This was irritating as not only did I pay corkage, but they added $10 tip to corkage with automatic 20% tip at end. The server did not deserve that extra $10 although she was lovely throughout the meal except for one more misstep. After the main meal was over, I wanted to have some more of that wondrous bread and was told the kitchen was closed. We were never warned about this. Every restaurant tells the guests at least 15 minutes before the kitchen closes. Other than those minor mistakes, this was a fine dining meal not found anywhere else in this part of S Cal/Riverside County. Highly recommended!!
