If you think everything here LOOKS good, just wait until you taste it. Wow wow wow! I've tried most things here but the standouts were the Brûléesant and Oat Milk Ice Crème, specifically the Chocolate Peanut Butter Pretzel one. And that Brûléesant is a dream come true, mixing two of my all-time favorite desserts. The people working here could not be nicer and it's a cute little shop with some seating outside to try your sweets before they melt! read more

Personally, it didn't really love the ice cream. Would prefer something more creamy but, given that it's oat milk, I guess it tasted OK. We got the strawberry shortcake and the coffee crunch ice creams, which both had sort of a plastic-y tasting syrup on top. They def looked a lot better than it tasted. Sort of felt too much like a diet ice cream to me. Staff was really nice and really put in a lot of effort to make our ice creams look cute though! read more

Unique vegan desserts in West Hollywood! Came for their ice cream and it was good, but I don't know if I would necessarily go out of my way to come here again. I got their Strawberry Shortcake Ice Cream and it was good, but I'd prefer a real ice cream version of this. While the sweet cream base was okay, it was as rich and creamy as real ice cream. I also wasn't the biggest fan of the strawberry purée which was pretty tart. I did like the shortcake crumble which really saved the ice cream for me. I wouldn't pay $8 for this again, but would eat it if it was free. Loved the dessert designs here, but not my cup of tea. read more

Came here for some sweets The ice cream wasn't completely what I imagined. I was not a huge fan of the syrup they put into the ice cream, it would have been better if it was homemade, however for me it was too sweet It didn't fully taste of strawberry. The service was quick and the attendant was knowledgeable about their items for sale The ambiance was busy. There is minimal seating inside, however, you can sit outside read more

Loved everything we ordered. I had the strawberry shortcake and LOVED the tartness of the puree that balanced the sweetness of the oat milk ice cream. My daughter had the Bruleesant (sp) and it was delicious! read more

I came to this location for a pop up and I'm not entirely sure if the staff working the pop up were staff of the location or the brand. The event was very disorganized and staff were a bit dismissive unless you were a content creator. Content creators arrived at whatever time despite my friend and I being the first in line, we waited over an hour to get in because anytime a content creator showed up, they were allowed to cut the line. It was a bit upsetting but we waited so long to get in, we endured it. The area was rather small inside so you grabbed your sweet treat and had to eat outdoors. After having to hurry and sample our treat before it was melting, a staff member came by and slammed a lipgloss into my already eaten ice cream which was confusing, it would have been better to insert the gloss into the ice cream once it was served since they wanted us to tag them in our photos rather than wait until it was melted and half eaten. While the ice cream was delicious, I'm still deciding if I should return or just stay away after having that experience. read more

Couldn't tell it was vegan! Their ice cream is oat based but we couldn't tell, we were just enjoying the flavors too much. They have recommended flavor combinations but you can also customize your desert. We tried the chocolate peanut butter pretzel cone, the mint chocolate cone, and the coffee ice cream sundae with chocolate drizzle. The texture of their ice cream was very light but rich in flavor. We enjoyed all three equally. The service was very friendly. Decor was more urban and simple. There are few seats inside and some seating outside in the courtyard. Check their hours as it varies from weekend vs weekdays. Metered street parking is available. read more

Finally got their chance to try the oat milk based ice cream and it was pretty good! There was a pop up hosted by Vitamasque free to the public, you can stop by and try their ice cream and get some skincare goodies on the house. I got the cinnamon sugar and pink vanilla and they were both good, but the cinnamon sugar flavor was my favorite. It was topped with small bites of a a soft cinnamon sugar bread and covered in a cinnamon cookie crumble. The employees were super sweet and helpful! The interior is beautiful, and there's a couple spots to sit inside and outside. If you're on the area, I'd recommend checking it out. Thanks to the lovely staff for this fun experience! read more

The place was cute. The customer service was great. Our server was very nice and hospitable, which I why I'll give them three stars but the food was so bland and overpriced. My friend and I did enjoy the croissants but even that was overpriced. Like I said the service is great but it's clear they put more thought into their aesthetic than the food. read more

Overall - 9/10 - This is a woman & black-owned ice cream shop that is on my must have because of their plant-based ice cream. This is a wonderful dairy free dessert & ice cream bar. I went to try their dessert due to a pop-up by Vitamasque that was free to the public. There was free skincare and lip products throughout the pop-up. The staff were friendly and helped us and explained the ingredients of the ice cream. Additionally, if you were to drive here there is limited parking. There is mostly street parking and parking in the neighborhood, but watch the for parking signs. Dessert - I had a caramel waffle crunch oat milk ice cream. The ice cream was smiliar like custard and also covered with waffle cone bits. The ice cream had a balance of creaminess from the ice cream, the crunch from the waffle pieces and not being too sweet. Overall experience - The dessert lab had wonderful dairy free ice cream that tasted so creamy. They also make their toppings in-house too. I was amazed that it was creamy like custard ice cream and it was also made from oat-milk too. There was ample seating in the outside area of the store becuase the store didn't have any seatings. read more

Easily a 5 star experience!! This woman owned, black owned ice creamery will forever be on my "must have" list when in LA! In visiting with friends we were greeted eagerly and walked through the all oat milk ice cream options! Yes you heard right OAT MILK ice cream! I got their "Cinnamon Apple Crisp" and talk about AMAZING! It is their sweet crème oat milk ice cream, dipped in a spice crumble, cinnamon apple sauce in the middle in a cone. This was the creamiest, most flavor packed ice cream I have EVER had. Urban Dessert Lab has changed the future of ice cream! I can't find any ice cream as flavorful and smooth as this! You won't be disappointed and will be addicted just me like me lol! read more

I had a trip planned to SoCal and added this to my list of places to stop at after I saw the viral post. DID NOT DISAPPOINT! I became allergic to dairy halfway through life and coming across good alternatives for ice cream desserts has been a long standing struggle. This place hit the spot with its plant based ice creams. Service was kind and friendly. She helped answer questions and struck up a nice conversation with us. Small location in West Hollywood but it has a good location. We can at the perfect time, as no one is in line in front of us and a big rush came right after us. Couple seats available insides and some more outside so you can sit and enjoy your treat. Flavors were amazing and I definitely recommend you check them out. read more

I saw this place on IG and I wanted to support because it was black owned. I got the Brulé croissant walking home from WeHo Sunday afternoon. I kid you not this croissant and the cream was the best thing I ate all day. I'm not even a dessert person, but this thing was orgasmic. All in all I will definitely go back again and I need everyone in their mom to go and support this place so that doesn't close so I can always get this croissant. I haven't even tried the ice cream yet, but that'll be next in addition to another croissant. Lol read more

As a lactose intolerant person my dessert options, especially ice cream are usually quite limited. Then throw in my allergy to coconut and that's typically a wrap. But today my friends, I encountered a beautiful soul who actually cares about lactose intolerant folks. All the soft serve and ice cream here is oat milk based! In addition to soft serve and specialty ice cream cones, they also have cookies! I did not give in to temptation today so I did not try the cookies but the ice cream melted my heart. I'd highly recommend supporting this business and feeding your lactose intolerant friends with these tasty treats! read more

When it comes to plant based desserts, it can be very hit or miss. But Urban Dessert Lab is a hit! There's not much more in life that makes me happy than a warm cookie and this delivered. While the bases were basically all the same, the toppings were pretty exciting. I personally liked the peanut butter pretzel better than the s'mores just because the graham cracker was too much cinnamon for me. The soft serve ice cream is almost like the texture of a mousse which was surprisingly nice. Parking is a nightmare in that area so that's one negative, but there did seem to be consistent foot traffic the whole time we were there. Overall a good place for vegan desserts. read more

Unique and delicious soft serve. The size is small and only one size for the ice cream treats, but it is packed with goodness. The soft serve is soft and creamy, the sauces actually taste like what they are supposed to be not sugary and fake. The coffee sauce is so good and bold. I was so tempted to order one of each but I knew that although it looks small, it is filling. Definitely recommend adding Urban Dessert Lab to your itinerary when in the area. They do have limited hours but I can see why. Each order is crafted perfectly and with care. The staff are kind and welcoming. It is easy to order as you self checkout on a tablet. Very cute and small spot but they also have outdoor seating available. read more

Summary: Was pretty average, decent for vegan substitute. Service was really nice, they gave suggestions and explained the different flavors and all. The store itself is pretty nice with some indoor and outdoor seating. If you like oat milk, you might love the subtle flavor of the base. If you really need good texture, it's almost nonexistent, personally for me I like it when ice cream has a little texture to it. The add ons weren't bad, the crisps are like broken waffles, kinda reminds me of fortune cookies. The coffee was pretty nice but really overpowering past the the oat milk base. read more

After admiring this spot on IG for years (and its NYC counterpart), I was so excited when Urban Dessert Lab opened up in LA. Of course, I had to get one of the cones they're always featuring on IG, so I opted for the Strawberry shortcake. It was really delicious! And yes, it does look just like the 'gram videos when you eat it. That was super fun! Definitely want to go back and try the other items and flavors! read more

Was in the area with a sweet tooth and came across this bookmark. From the other reviews, seems this place is good but maybe they were having an off-night when I came. Parking: A - free parking in back in a parking structure. Cookie: C+ - I got the cookie + ice cream and the cookie seemed like it had been in an oven all day. It was hard and stale/hard to chew and was luke warm. Ice cream: B+ - I got the sweet cream with strawberry shortcake topping. It was decent, not great and not bad. Facility: C - when you walk in, there are no pictures, not many items out on display, but there is a self-serve kiosk with some pictures. I had to look at other pictures on Yelp to get an idea of what to order. Service: A+ - the lady was very nice, friendly and helpful. Although it didn't stick for me, other people seem to love it and I'm ok with that. read more

First time here and will be coming back for sure! Oat milk based and not overly sweet. The owner was the only one working and she was so sweet and you can tell every order was made with such care and love. The inside of her shop is so cute and definitely matches the quality of her soft serve. I typically get sick of the icecream halfway through, but not with this one. I ate it all. If you're craving icecream but don't like how sweet it is or if you get sick of the flavor quickly, try out this place and it will not disappoint. read more

When I tell you that this is a"MUST" I mean it is a "One Hundred Percent "MUST" my family and I were wanting a dessert, but we didn't want any dessert. We wanted a special dessert which meant something that was good for our bodies... this amazing experience offers just that check out the menu. They're right off of Santa Monica Blvd. parking was available. We just had to walk a little bit, but hey, who's not willing to get in your steps right? anyway it's a cute cozy location we walked in we were greeted with a great smile and the decor. The ambience was very "Chill" since it was our first time they were kind enough to answer all of our questions. They have a Digital Menu along with pictures of each of the desserts from delicious warm cookies to amazing ice cream and it's all made with oat milk.!!!!!!! and the taste is DELICIOUS below your sea pictures of the location and the s'mores ice cream cone I purchased it had vanilla and chocolate my choice, but you can choose what they have to offer or make up your own amazing concoction they also have water and the restroom was clean I TOTAL RECOMMEND THIS SPOT,,,, it was perfect for a Saturday Night read more

First i think it's pretty pricey for dessert, $16 for 2. They have the set ones that were $8.00 and the there's also an option where you can customize you choose your base for $5.95, and then you can add the topping or filling for $1 or $1.25. Taste wise nothing really special for me, i got the cookie crumble w/ choco core but my partner liked his choco peanut butter pretzel. An advantage they have is the free parking lot at the back. read more

At Urban Dessert Lab you can either craft your own ice cream or pick one of their signature creations with various sauces and toppings. One of the owners, Zan, served us and was very nice and helpful to a first timer. She goes back and forth between their NY and LA location! You do order and pay on their device at the counter and there are menu books to look through. They only offer two flavors for their soft serve base (chocolate and sweet cream), but both tasted great as an oat milk based ice cream. There were some open tables to sit at outside of the store and dog friendly. You wouldn't really think to go into this place or know what it was by walking by unless you've heard of it. It's in a little plaza with other food vendors. There is a parking structure behind it (free on Sundays & after 5pm, or $7+ other days/times). We drove 40 minutes to try this place, so I'd say not something I'd go out of my way for again. But if I find myself in the area I'd bring dairy free friends to try it out! read more

Omg! UDL! Saw it on IG and had to try it. I've been avoiding dairy (I'm lactose intolerant) and most dairy free ice creams taste chalky or just off. UDL is truly delicious, tried it 2 days ago for my birthday and I'm still thinking about it. Definitely will be going back! My wife and I got the strawberry shortcake and it was to die for! And the owners are 2 wonderful women, so easy to talk to and connect. Oh! And they treated me for my birthday... it was so nice of them Perfect ending to a great day! 11/10 read more
