SoCal friends recommended Stella Jean's for dessert and it did not disappoint! Ample Asian inspired flavors like ube and mango sticky rice. Got the strawberry oat crumble and it was delicious! Amazing strawberry flavor and the oat crumble added great texture. The waffle cone (while a splurge) was perfectly thick and crispy and complemented the ice cream well. A single scoop for one was huge. Friends got the split scoop to share. Easy parking and ample seating area in outdoor food hall.
This ice cream shop is located inside The Lab complex. It's a small enclosed shop with a wacky interior and three tall tables to stand up at. If you want to sit down to eat your ice cream, you have to find a place to sit at one of the random tables located throughout The Lab. I was warmly greeted as I walked in and looked over the unique flavors; I think there were 14 or so. I decided on two scoops of two different flavors: Madagascar Vanilla and S'mores. I found a table to sit down and dove into the ice cream. Admittedly, Madagascar Vanilla was probably the most boring choice I could have made, but the bold vanilla flavor was delicious. The S'mores was exactly what you'd expect: chocolate ice cream with bits of chocolate, marshmallow, and graham cracker throughout. The vanilla was more dense than most ice creams I've had, yet fresh and smooth. The S'mores was definitely more creamy and yummy. I'd rate this ice cream 4.5 rounded up.
Huuugeeee fan of Stella Jean's but I've been frequenting their other Costa Mesa location, not knowing there's one closer to me at The Lab! Parking can be a pain because of the mall location but the ice cream makes it worth it. My go - to is always the ube pandesal and I like to sample their seasonal items. Currently, their guava cheesecake is very yummy. A split scoop costs $6.75 and they are decent sized scoops. Service here is hit or miss. Sometimes you get a pleasant worker and other times you'll get someone who is merely there doing a job and can't even manage to crack a smile. I really can care less though because the ice cream is just so good and makes up for it. They do let you sample. Indoor only has standing tables but if you walk outside the store there are plenty of cute places to sit and enjoy your ice cream within The Lab.
Small little ice cream shop inside the LAB. plenty of seating outside, minimal standing tables inside. 5 stars because the worker was so sweet. Encouraged us to sample everything and was super patient and kind! We ended up getting a split scoop which was also huge! guava cheesecake: 8.8/10. seasonal flavor :( but so delicious. Lots of graham cracker bites and guava swirls. On the sweeter side but very delicious. matcha birthday cake: 8.7/10. SO GOOD!!! Rich, vegan, and filled with birthday cake bites and sprinkles. This flavor was not overly sweet at all, strong matcha flavor. Surprisingly paired well with the guava cheesecake flavor.
The service here was very fast and efficient. You're also able to sample the flavors, which is really nice! My favorite was the mango sticky rice it was so good! I tried the other flavors as well, including the guava, and it was honestly delicious too. The guava paired really well with the mango sticky rice. There were a few seating areas, and the space was pretty roomy!
In the spirit of transparency, let me just start by saying that my visit to Stella Jean's actually came a little while back. However, even though I'm only posting this now (before it gets any later), I actually had most of this written out for a while. So why the delay? Because I'm so far in the minority, I figured I would wait until I could come back and see if my first trip was a fluke and/or if it was just the flavors I tried. Sadly, though, while the parking gods usually look favorably upon me, they've forsaken me every time we've tried to come back when we're in town! On the surface, everything about Stella Jean's is right up my alley - the shop is cuzy and cute, their flavors are unique, and they source their ingredients from a lot of great purveyors, like Valrhona Chocolate and Califia Farms. More importantly, their selection of flavors looked super promising. Alongside their menu mainstays, like Mango Sticky Rice, Strawberry Oat Crumble, and Ube + Pandesal Toffee, they also feature a handful of rotating seasonal offerings which are equal parts unique and interesting. What's more, for anyone that has dietary sensitivities and/or preferences, they always have several options that are vegan, gluten-free, or both. -- UBE & PANDESAL TOFFEE - Ube, Pandesal (Filipino Sweet Bread), and Toffee As evidenced by its intensely purple coloring, this had a strong taste of ube to it, which I really liked. The toffee nicely balanced that earthy sort of flavor, but I didn't get much of the pandesal, though, maybe I just missed scooping some. -- MANGO STICKY RICE - Mango Sorbet, Pandan, and Coconut Milk Compared to the other flavors we had, this felt crisp and so much lighter. The sorbet was a nice reprieve from how creamy everything else was and I liked how refreshing the mango tasted. Solid. -- SALTED MAPLE + BANANA BREAD - Maple Syrup, Chocolate Chunk, Banana Bread, Sea Salt, and Coconut Milk This flavor had me the most excited, but it fell a bit short. While I loved the combination of the chocolate and banana bread, the maple syrup was too much. Not only did it make this too sweet, but it overpowered everything, including the scoop of Apple Butter Crumble. -- APPLE BUTTER + CRUMBLE - Green Apple, Cinnamon, Nutmeg, Apple Butter, Oat Crumble, Sea Salt, and Coconut Milk Pretty cool how this felt like eating a scoop of apple pie a la mod in a single scoop. The mix of flavors was pretty classic, but it also felt oddly subtle. That being said, it may have had more to do with the Salted Maple & Banana Bread blending with/overwhelming this one. Besides how overly sweet a couple of the flavors were, the other thing that dampened our experience was the service. More specifically, the guy who helped scoop our ice cream, as he seemed generally annoyed for some reason. I'm not sure why he would be with us, as we only asked to try a couple of samples each compared to the couple ahead of us who tried three or four per person, but he seemed like he was eager to get us in and out of there ASAP. Also, FWIW, he seemed just as bothered with the couple behind us, so maybe he was just dying to go home. Between how nearly everyone that's been to Stella Jean's has fallen in love with them and how the Salted Maple + Banana Bread was the only real problematic flavor we tried, I really do think we just got the wrong flavors. Maybe a bit of bad timing as well, considering how all of their current seasonal flavors sound fantastic - Banana Turon Crunch, Guava Cream Cheese, Matcha + Pandan Birthday Cake, and Pineapple Fog. Either way, I feel almost compelled to try to visit Stella Jean's again the next time we're out this way. Just maybe their other location in Costa Mesa instead of this one. Regrettably, THREE AND A HALF STARS rounded down for now.
Stella Jean has some bomb ice cream. I got a split single ($6.75) of the pineapple pog and mango sticky rice which was great because I had a refreshing pineapple orange flavor and a dessert mango sticky rice flavor to complement it. I'm shocked both flavors are gluten free and vegan, usually vegan/gluten free ice cream doesn't taste good (in my experience) but this time was different!
Best ice cream shop in the area. Parking sucks because you gotta be patient, especially knowing that the lab is always packed. They always come with seasonal flavor, so make sure to check their Instagram or social media. You can sample all the flavors and I got ube pandesal & mango sticky rice. The mango sticks is pretty refreshing because you got two flavors which is the mango sorbet and milky flavor ice cream. They have cool art on the wall.
Stella Jean's is such a find, especially if you or someone you are with is gluten free. My partner is gluten free and when she realized they had gluten free waffle cones she was so excited. She told me she didn't think she'd ever be able to have a waffle cone again. That alone made this place worth the visit. We both got split scoops. I went with cookies and cream and brown butter pecan. She got brown butter pecan and strawberry oat crumble. The brown butter pecan was the clear winner for both of us, absolutely delicious. The strawberry oat crumble was a hit for her though I personally found the strawberry flavor a little too punchy for my taste, but I'm just not a fruit in my dessert person so take that with a grain of salt. I also sampled the s'mores but the chewy marshmallow texture in ice cream isn't really my thing. The girl working was doing it all on her own, scooping and ringing people up, and she was incredibly attentive the whole time. Great work ethic. A few practical notes: they do not accept cash so make sure to bring a card. There is plenty of seating both inside the storefront and outside.
Not sure if I should admit this or not but I had never heard of Stella Jean's Ice Cream before last night so when my group of friends wanted to go after dinner I thought why not? We walked from a local brewery and were told we were lucky to walk into the ice cream shop with only 3 customers ahead of us. Sure enough, right after our group arrived and then for a solid 30+ minutes after, there was a steady line out the door! The flavors were some of the most unique I had experienced based on included ingredients, like caramelized egg roll wrappers. The best deal seemed to be the "Split Scoop". You'd think it would be the same size as a single scoop but just in two flavors but not at Stella Jean's! It's almost a double scoop and for less than a dollar more. I didn't know that until my friend after me ordered. I was disappointed at first but my ice cream flavor, Strawberry Oat Crumble, was quite sweet so I don't think I could have eaten more than my single scoop so I am happy I stuck with that decision! I really enjoyed this new spot and had fun sitting in the common seating area of the Anti-mall LAB area since there is no seating inside. Only bar top tables. Worth the wait too if you should encounter a line but I guess most of you know that already and I was the only newbie there!
Despite authentic flavors, ube pandesal toffee is better than mango sticky rice and banana turon because of its texture. Mango sticky rice sorbet is bright and sharp in its fruitiness. The coconut milk and pandan components are secondary, but this business has the best ice cream. Banana turon crunch doesn't have the crunch of caramelized egg roll wrappers, yet the jackfruit jam is great. This last flavor feels icier than the others.
The ice cream is high quality and delicious! It's creamy and full of flavor! I really enjoy their ube flavor, it's my favorite for sure. The service was fast and no one was in line when we got there. Ambiance is small shop in the corner of the plaza. Right next to a potpie shop.
Stella Jean's is a California-based small-batch ice cream shop. Flavors that is not normally elsewhere. Good tasting, not over powering. Cute small ocean shop located at The LAB Anti-Mall. Great service!!!

My girlfriend and I have decided to go here after cupping. I went to the Stella Jean in San Diego and that was really nice and huge, but this one's very small and quaint. Parking gets a little crazy in this plaza, but if you can find a spot and you like Asian flavor ice creams This is the place to go to! I was trying to remember what flavors the San Diego location and I think these are all different ! Our ice cream girl was vigorously cleaning the spoons while we were getting samples! We really liked the thai tea. Everyone else got their order ready so we were the only ones in the store able to try every single flavor. Thank you so much for the wonderful service! Overall, it was a great experience although I felt like all the flavors kind of tasted the same. There were a lot of coconut flavors and each one had some sort of caramel. It would've been nice to have a little bit more variety but that's just me. Maybe it would be nice to have a fruity sorbet! read more

Seasonal Asian flavors all unique and yum. Appreciated sampling the flavors. Quick run through, yuzu matcha meh pass 5/10, ube sweet yum 8/10, banana turon real bananas 7/10, mango sticky rice very fresh mango 7/10 + Earl Grey Pistachio Pie kids scoop ($4.95): earl grey forward no pistachio flavor, loved all the pistachio bits and this toffee cake throughout (8.5/10) read more

Great place in The Lab to get ice cream! Love that the texture is almost gelato-like. I really enjoyed the ube pandesal flavor but wish it had a stronger ube flavor. I also couldn't really taste the pandesal flavor as well. The brown butter flavor was so delicious and not too sweet. The POG flavor was very refreshing and highly recommend as a non-dairy option. Service was quick but staff wasn't very welcoming. There's no seats inside but a few tables to stand at. It's a great place to get ice cream and try their unique flavors! read more

This is probably the best ice cream i've ever had! The banana turon is so unique and the ube pandesal really tastes like the exact combination! The service was quick and worked well with our large group and the space was clean and cute! Will definitely come back here whenever i'm in the area!! read more
A nice location tucked away in the lab in Costa Mesa. The parking is good. It goes around the whole building so if you don't find one right in front, there's some around the corner. I was very impressed with the service on a late Saturday night. There was one person behind the counter, and she was efficient and getting through the line and even giving people enough time to have samples. The flavors are really great a lot of good rotation and there's a lot of spaces outside of this location for you to sit and relax and enjoy your ice cream. read more
Yikes. I was suckered in by the gulab jamun flavour but this was such an absolutely disappoint. It tasted so bland and whatever was supposed to be gulab jamun was this nasty, almost cardboard-like jamun. I could not taste any of the sugar syrup or rose (the gulab part of the gulab jamun). Definitely overhyped and boring. Better off going to Wanderlust or an actual South Asian small business that makes good South Asian flavoured ice cream. read more

Craved ice cream and have been wanting to try Stella Jean's. Parking can be tough but since we'd go after dinner, there would be spots open. First time I went they ran out of banana turon so I opted for the Yuzu Matcha, since it was a seasonal item. The flavor was soooo good. The yuzu was soooo refreshing and the matcha wasn't too overpowering. I went back the following week to try the banana turon. This was amazing but really sweet for my taste. It gets crowded but service is fast. read more
This place is absolutely delicious and every flavor they offered was so unique and yummy. Located at the every edge of the LAB, it can be a bit hard to find, but the interior is incredibly charming and has 3 tables you can stand at to eat and chat! I personally got the banana Turon crunch, and as someone who personally does not like banana flavored items, I absolutely loved this since it's had no artificial flavor and the banana puree throughout made it more reminiscent of an actual Turon treat. It also had jackfruit, which I loved and the Caramelized egg wrapper was a nice crunch throughout. I will definitely be coming back to try new flavors and get my friends to try them as well ! read more
I love you Stella Jean's Ice Cream. Baklava cheesecake is a must try. SO good. Stella Jean's lets to sample all their flavors, and their cheesecake flavor is love at first bite. Just enough cheesy taste, but not too overpowering. But it's the little chunks mixed into the ice cream that gives it a creamy, sweet & salty flavor. Genius! Just for my ice cream alone, I give Stella Jean's five stars. The place itself is cute and modern, but rather small. Wish they had more seatings but we were still able to enjoy our sweet treats. Don't ask me about the other flavors, because I will likely stay loyal to the baklava cheesecake ice cream for as long as they carry it. Happy eating! read more

Located in the Lab which I thought was a pretty cool since I have never been. Enjoyed this cute little ice cream shop because of their unique flavors. Service can be a bit slow, since one worker and the lines can get pretty long depending on the time and day you go. The staff member was very nice. Tons of parking and easy to locate since this plaza is across from The Camp. No chairs inside, but two tables for standing. read more
Review 18/365 Day Challenge Came to Costa Mesa for a Date Night. Had dinner at HANUMAN Thai Eatery than went to the Candlelight Ed Sheeran Coldplay ensemble concert. Was looking to come to Stella Jeans to grab their ice cream after the show for my bestie. She loves it here. The 2 usual flavors i always get ~ Ube + pandesal toffee. Has the ube taste that's for sure n crunch of toffee. Highly recommended. ~ Mango Sticky Rice tastes legit like the thai dessert. Creamy and not overly sweet. The Ice Cream shop is simple and nice. Clean. Their menu of flavors is limited w Distinctive unique flavors. The packaging and cups for the ice cream is nice. Service is fast and they don't free samples you can try. The prices are a bit high $ 13 for a pint is a bit on the pricey side. So definitely more of an indulgent ice cream treat. Not an everyday treat for the price it is. Stella Jeans ice cream has a handful of shops, San Diego area is one I know of. Located next to Sidecar Donut. Parking is a bit hard since it's not too big. read more
i'm just a silly little broke college grad who's silly little 22nd birthday is today and just wanted a silly little scoop of ice cream... dream fulfilled guys. the gentleman behind the counter was so kind and literally had me smiling like a goof... from the girl in red with curly hair TYSMMM :,) that banana crunch flavor had me DROOLING i love all the unique flavor combos and vegan options, and the coconut swirl in the mango sticky rice ice cream scoop i got was to DIE for. HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MEEEEE :P read more
First time visiting this location at the LAB, and it was easy to find since it's right at the entrance, next to Bred's Hot Chicken. There was only one person on staff, and she was friendly and welcoming, taking her time with each group despite the line that emerged. Also, she was super generous with samples, which made the experience fun. I hate when places don't allow samples, and you have to gamble on a scoopful of flavor you might not like. I love the ice cream flavors at Stella Jean because they're unique and not overly sweet. I usually expect something like s'mores-style flavors to be sickeningly sweet because of marshmallows, but that wasn't the case. We got a cup of the Ube + Pandesal Toffee and the S'mores. I noticed the texture was really interesting, almost like mochi or a springy marshmallow. It also didn't melt quickly. Mine barely started melting when I had about 15% left, which is impressive. There are tables and seating around the LAB and they also have standing tables inside the ice cream shop. read more

Food: my absolute favorite ice cream in the entire world! The flavors are so creamy and the toppings within every ice cream is just the right amount! We drive all the way from Central California to SoCal for this ice cream because it really is the best ever! I keep telling myself to bring a cooler with lots of ice to bring it home! Hopefully Stella jeans will make it its way up to Fresno one day! Service: the staff are always very nice and let you try out flavors. Ambience: a cute ice cream shop with very lively colors! read more

Walking into this store, it felt warm and welcoming, and the staff was also really sweet. He let us tried several flavors that we requested and always had a smile on his face. I am kind of sad they ran out of earl Grey pistachio pie, but I ended up getting the mango sticky rice and ube + pandesal toffee and honestly, they were so good! The flavors didn't taste artifical and tasted like their names indicated. They were also not too sweet and the price was reasonable. My favorite was the ube + pandesal toffee cause of the extra texture that the toffee gave! I will probably come back for the earl gray pistachio pie next time! read more
Located in the Lab, parking can be annoying, especially on the weekends. Really unique flavors. Some are coconut based, the coconut flavor really lingers. I tried the ube toffee, pistachio and the s'mores(coconut based). Ube was definitely my favorite out of the three. I prefer the ice cream over the coconut flavors, but they are still good. Everyone enjoyed their ice cream. read more

Amazing ice cream shop with unique flavors located in a cute, aesthetic mall called The Lab. We had the Ube, milk & cookies, & banana turon crunch flavors. Both the Ube and milk & cookies were perfect, not too sweet while also not bland. The banana turon crunch however was just a bit too sweet for my palate. The service was a little slow as there was only one worker, but considering the circumstance he did a great job. Would definitely come back for more :) read more

The flavors are unique and clean. Creative and joy filled. I walked on over here with my sister and we were just met with an awesome treat. I like that there's not that many flavors to choose from to begin with. The ingredients are what they say! This has become one of my favorite places to grab icecream. God bless you all! read more

The Green Ice cream (2 pics) bought in May The Ube on top (3 pics) bought August 21st. Just wanted to compare two doubles Two different servers. Two different sizes. Same price. 3 month difference. Never coming back if I need to have a specific server for moneys worth. I'm being passive aggressive by the way. read more

I loved: Brown Butter Pecan Ube + Pandesal Toffee The brown butter pecan is rich and creamy with that deep, nutty flavor that makes you go back for another bite immediately. The ube with pandesal toffee is even better. The toffee flakes add the perfect crunch and pair so well with the ube's natural sweetness. Super rich. Great flavor. Service was great. Only one person but they knew their stuff, had great recommendations, and let us try samples. A solid spot if you're craving something elevated but still fun. read more
