    Ice cream display
    Stephanie H.

    I wanted to eat everything in here. I was mesmerized by the colorful ice cream and popsicles but I was trying to be healthy so I went with a vampiro juice instead. I added pineapple for a little extra sweetness. The large was less than $10 ! The service was friendly and fast and the dining area was bright and clean I saw they had a selection of board games to play too!

    I was in the area and decided to drop in for a cold drink. I was pleasantly surprised with the selection of ice cream, desserts, juices, and drinks offered here. The spot is esthetically pleasing and staff friendly, polite, and attentive. All their selections looked amazing but I was on my way to a party and only ordered a Chai Tea Latte. It was very good, refreshing, and not too sweet which is just how I like them. I'll be back to try their other items and will recommend this spot to my family and friends that live in the area.

    So many great coffee, ice cream & juice options here. The best stop to grab local favorites. I loved the seasonal marigold ice cream flavor - never tried anything like it & am definitely coming back before they sell out. Everyone was so nice and helpful, great customer service. Also, cute and cozy decor at this establishment - love it!

    In case you haven't heard of nieves and paletas... Nieves are water-based Mexican ice cream made mainly made with fruits. Paletas are Mexican popsicles packed with flavors. If you haven't had one yet, you must try for sure. I fell in love with their pineapple ice cream at the first lick. Refreshing without being overwhelming, it deliciously cooled me down on a hot afternoon. It hit the perfect balance of subtle tart of pineapple and sweetness. The staff was super-friendly. I was encouraged to taste different flavors, which I skipped since I had my heart set on pineapple. When I return, I will be trying different flavors and perhaps even grab a paleta.

    the workers are so sweet and helpful, they have a variety of ice cream flavors and paletas and their mango strawberry smoothie is a 10/10

    Ahhhhh I finally got to try a viral/trendy place to eat in LA. This sandwich was so so worth it!…read moreThe price is seemingly alot but you get 2 regular sized sandos in one. I got the #1 bestseller and it did NOT disappoint. I can see why someone wouldn't like it because it is rather plain but I prefer plain sandwiches myself. I like the ingredients to speak for themselves and not be coated in extra sugar or salt. I'm also a big fan of pistachio, the amount they put on is not for the faint of heart... hehe This place is clean, the line is efficient and friendly. I recommend stopping by. I came here as recommendation from Joshua Weissman's YT video of trying LA foods.

This location on Wilshire Blvd in Koreatown is the smallest of the three I've visited, with under 10 seats available. It's a compact shop, and most customers opt for takeout. It's a narrow shop, and most customers take their orders to-go. I've previously enjoyed the La Paradiso and La Toscana, with the La Paradiso being my personal favorite. For our first visit with our son, we asked the staff for recommendations, and they suggested either the Venice Beach (Turkey) or the New Yorker (Roast Beef). The staff was incredibly generous, offering a roast beef sample, which our son loved! We also appreciated them providing ice and straws for our water. We ordered the New Yorker ($19.00) with roast beef, porcini cream, tomato, and arugula. The sandwich was thoughtfully cut in half, perfect for sharing. The schiacciata bread boasts a crispy exterior and a soft, chewy interior, which beautifully complements the meats and cheeses. We opted to substitute the porcini cream for mozzarella, which was sliced into perfect bite-sized pieces and tasted incredibly fresh. The roast beef was thinly sliced and tender, the tomatoes were fresh and sliced to perfection, and the arugula added a delightful peppery crunch. It's a well-balanced sandwich and one of the best in LA. We would definitely order it again. A big thank you to the female staff member who expertly cut the meat and offered samples, assisting us in making the perfect choice for my son's sandwich. This experience was truly a positive one for our family. I would definitely return to AAV for the excellent food and service. Given the small size of the shop, takeout is recommended, especially during peak hours. The sandwiches at AAV are so good! Fuggedaboutit!

I wasn't trying that today but to each his own Surprisingly they have special beverages, today I tried the blood orange lemonade, it was a must with the spicy level of the chicken sandwich. Gang! This place is a MUST TRY!!!

    This was somewhat of a big mess. Let me say upfront that everyone I dealt with was friendly, and…read morethe chicken sandwich was probably the best chicken sandwich I've ever had. Even so, I probably won't go back. We showed up and the place was pretty much empty, with just a couple of tables occupied. We ordered, sat down, and waited. And waited. I couldn't help but notice that all of the tables that were there before us had been served, while bags of food kept going out the door for takeout orders. I understand that this isn't fast food, but seriously, I have an issue with waiting 35 minutes for a fried chicken sandwich, especially when the restaurant isn't busy. Adding insult to injury, when our food finally arrived, the server said, "Thank you so much for being patient!" That made me wonder if this kind of wait is normal. Instead of acknowledging that something had gone wrong, it felt like the long wait was simply being brushed off. The frustrating part is that the sandwich and fries were excellent. The chicken sandwich really may have been the best I've ever had, which makes the whole experience even more disappointing. Great food, friendly people, but a 35-minute wait for a chicken sandwich in an almost empty restaurant is enough to keep me from going back.

On our first visit, the cashier highly recommended the Di Parma, so of course we had to try it. It comes with 18-month Prosciutto di Parma, handmade burrata, fresh pesto, truffled cream, chopped pistachios, and baby arugula. Such a good combo. Everything tasted fresh and balanced, and the truffled cream and pistachios added just enough richness without overpowering the prosciutto and burrata. We decided to try Lorenzo since we'd heard so much about their sandwiches too, but it just didn't hit the spot for us the way Mamie did. We found ourselves comparing it back to the Di Parma the entire time. Mamie has definitely become our go-to when we're craving a really good Italian sandwich. If it's your first time, get the Di Parma! :)
