The Mango Drink was also very creamy yet not too sweet. Parking was plentiful even it looked full outside. Just a little more walk. Service was quick and accurate: ordered at Kiosk and dessert was ready within 10-15mins. Nice simple store. Still very clean and well maintained. Will come again.

This bingsoo does the job. I think it's affiliated with Mandro the other well known bingsoo place. We ordered a regular which is enough for two. The matcha flavor was present and plenty of ingredients were given. All you can ask for. The service was quick. Waited only ~7-10 min for the bowl to come out. The atmosphere is more on the quiet side unless you go during the weekend where a bunch of high school kids hangout there. Will recommend in east bay if you need bingsoo in a pinch.

Coming back from the Peninsula we knew we'd be near San Ramon, so I thought to check if there were…read moreany interesting ice cream places. I like shops that make their own high-quality, premium ice cream with interesting flavors as a bonus. The oddly named Salt and Straw seemed to fit the bill - that's all we needed to check it out! It turns out they are in the Shops at Bishop Ranch, quite a nice location. There was a decent line (always a good sign) and lots of people outside eating their ice cream. It's purely a to-go location, no seating. I was impressed by their organization, having three different people serving orders. They replicate their ice cream assortment behind the front counter for all servers can serve customers - this was a first for us. They are more efficient than my local bank! A cool little thing is they use metal spoons for their samples and there's a discard hole in the front counter wall to dispose of the used spoons. The samples definitely taste better with a metal spoon versus the normal plastic things. I had the Salted, Malted, Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough - props for the creative name! My wife had the Cinnamon Snickerdoodle. We strolled outside and found a table to try these guys out. Oh my. From the first bites we were sold. This cookie dough was unlike any I've ever had, truly unique and bursting with flavor. My wife loved her Cinnamon Snickerdoodle, real cinnamony! We have never had better ice cream. A new Gotta Stop By whenever we are around San Ramon.

I like their uniqueness of flavor concoctions especially their seasonal flavors of coconut cherry pie with almond crust. Their newest concoction was melon & prosciutto. I didn't try this flavor but was intrigued by it. The staff is very nice moving the line of people through as quickly as possible. Offering samples of their flavors. My wife and I shared a scoop of Chocolate Gooey Brownie which was rich, creamy, and chocolate-y. She always gets this flavor whenever she visits Salt & Straw.

The shop is a bit small, but we were served right away. The small cup size gives you two flavors, and I opted for their Mango and Raspberry flavor. Mango and Raspberry: They are labeled as vegan and it was a very good sorbet gelato. It was tart and not overly sweet, which I appreciated. Both the flavors worked well together and harmonized. And for two scoops in a small, they give you ample amount of the frozen treat to satisfy your sweet tooth. Overall, I can see myself coming back here again.

They also offer other sweets like cookies and cupcakes, but the real star here is the sour candy. It's easy to get carried away while filling your bag--everything looks so tempting! I'll definitely keep this place in mind whenever I'm in the mood for sour candy. Service was pleasant with a smile!

One of the first cupcake places that I liked when the "cupcake movement" was starting. Red velvet…read morewas my love at first bite and still is! I'll always remember the moist rich velvety cake and lots of cream cheese frosting with that signature sugar dot. Ah nostalgia! Tried a box of 6 for fun - red velvet, chocolate, vanilla, blueberry lemon, carrot, and cookies & cream. They were tasty the day of but a few got dry the next day. The prices are also higher which I get due to the larger size and quality ingredients. However, the cupcake world has since gotten more saturated and they aren't the big fish in the pond anymore. Ordering was convenient via the self kiosk and cupcakes were ready for pickup in a breeze. There is ample seating inside too! If I'm in the area, I'd still get my fave red velvet and the cookies & cream!

I recommend sharing a triple scoop because that's cheaper than buying 2 singles. I think gelato at this price is unheard of in the bay area, let alone in Blackhawk/Danville of all places. I guess the rent isn't too bad because the place is small, but it is nice and the service is really good too! Definitely will be back! I'm actually no longer as surprised at the stellar ratings. I mean 4.9 star average is still insane, but I'd expect nothing less than 4.5-4.7 to be honest. I like the pistachio, biscoff, cookies and cream, stracciatella, vanilla, and dubai chocolate flavors. The waffle cone is included in the price so make sure to specifically ask for it, I made the mistake of not specifying and it would be 50 cents on the side (probably due to sharing, the single scoop is $5.99 and the triple scoop is $7.99)
