Extremely impressed with the seasonal flavors! Gotta try them before they go away!…read more I have frequented the Wanderlust Creamery locations in Los Angeles, and did know the Torrance one opened up recently. My husband and I were going to drive out 40 minutes for a different shop but I saw the neon blue sign in the dark and we made an impromptu visit here. Honestly best decision of our night!! I felt compelled to write a review because the seasonal ice cream flavors were the best I've ever had from Wanderlust. The pain au chocolat tastes exactly like you think... a chocolate croissant. There is a crunchy, buttery flavor that I haven't experienced from other ice cream and I hope I can try it again before they rotate the flavors. I also tried a beurre de noisette flavor which was a brown butter with cookie dough. Also a delicious pick! I tried a sample of the Kyoto dark chocolate- and that was incredible. You can really taste the roasted tea flavor of hojicha and it compliments the chocolate well. We went with a trio and I had the pain au chocolat, the beurre noisette, and black sesame cookies and cream. I think the crunch in the black sesame cookies didn't shine as well and this was my least favorite flavor of the night. I love black sesame and just thought I would like it more. Happy to have Wanderlust in the South Bay. It's always a 10/10 and worth giving a try. They have flavors inspired by all different countries and I am a big fan of their ube malted crunch. Their flavors stay consistently good throughout the years. Cant wait to be more of a regular here at the Torrance location!

Cute new place in Torrance. Tried the Ube crunch, sticky mango rice, passion fruit cacao, and the…read morepandan tres leches. They were all good. The pandan tree leches was very subtle in flavor and my least favorite. The rest were super flavorful. They don't really have a seating area, and the portions are on the smaller side. Still a good addition to the area.

There was a new flavor called pineapple upside down cake that had caught my eye so I handed him my credit card and told him to hook up the household. It's nice that you get credit toward future purchase discounts which are appreciated. I ordered a large that comes with 4 scoops. Besides the new item, I added cherry vanilla, rocky road, and butter pecan. Guess I was feeling a bit nutty. The pineapple was a little too cakey for me but I'm glad I tried it. Variety is the spice of life right? Hadn't had butter pecan in ages so that was a walk down memory lane. A Bruster's day is always a good day. Love my ice cream.

We've been passing this location for years now and decided finally to pop by. It was rainy, so I…read morewasn't expecting a crowd. I was right, but that still may be a bit unusual in SoCal, where we all scream for ice cream all year 'round. Large parking lot was mostly empty when we arrived and only filled in slightly for other businesses by the time we left, around 3:15pm. It took a minute for us to get noticed by the one person working, who we called out to a few times. She took our orders and got to work filling them. While we waited, I did a bit of inter webs research on why Bruster's resembled the same set up as Handel's. Turned out Bruce (the man behind Bruster's) worked for Handel's and had some of his own ideas about changes to the Handel's way of operating that, let's just say, Handel's wasn't open to trying. So Bruce went his own way, building on the same concept of ice cream made fresh daily in-house, unique flavors and a walk-up window. Interesting. Also interesting was the small portion in my waffle bowl. It was meant to be Medium, 2 flavors, but it looked more like a small, 2 flavors. In addition, the 2 scoops were offset with one flavor hanging over the edge, rather than in the bowl. Wonky. Lots of room in the bowl, why was it hard to aim the scoops into it? No one was being rushed, no line forming. This is a treat. Something special. Take a beat for the presentation. Especially if you're not giving full scoops. Make that bowl look like you filled it as best you can with the small amount you're dishing out. I haven't had this experience at other Brewster's, so maybe it's just how this location is run, or maybe just the person on this day. Don't think I'll return to find out. Cheers! "CC"

It came with a cilantro sauce as well as some pickled red onion. I also tried the turon pancakes which had slices of jackfruit on top to give it an extra Asian flair. There is seating indoors and outdoors. I had the thin mint iced latte which was good and not too sweet. There were lots of flavor options for lattes. They had a kids menu as well and lots of side options. There were lots of Korean-inspired dishes as well like Kim chi fried rice. There was an entire menu just for different breakfast burritos. The turon pancakes really tasted like the real caramelized turon. It had a nice sticky syrup on top that wasn't too sweet. The pancakes came super hot and were fluffy. The portion size was great. The cilantro sauce on the burrito was delicious. The pickled veggies added nice acidity that I appreciated. The bad: I don't know if there was any parking other than street parking. We parked right out front which was 1 hour parking and to the side is 20 minute parking. The interesting: You order and pay at the counter and the food gets brought out to you. I saw they had fresh cookies baked as well. Inside, there were festive balloons. I am not sure if it's always there or if they were from a special event. I've tried their catering company too and it was great! I really love how both the cafe and catering company use fresh flowers on their food to elevate their presentation.

I said I wouldn't be back, I'm already scheduled to visit next week. Go. Visit. Taste. Return for more.

I will say I definitely needed some water after I finished mine lol. We walked in at the perfect time today there was nobody in line, and the boy behind the counter was very nice and explained the different cookies to us. Shortly after ordering the line was out the door. Maybe next time we'll purchase the cookie dough! Definitely recommend this place if you have a sweet tooth.

When scanning the shops for a caffeination boost, I couldn't stop thinking about the "Over Caffeinated Cold Brew Float" I saw advertised at Moom Maam. So intriguing! I circled back and ordered the indulgent morning treat, slightly skeptical of such a mix. I'm happy to report though that yes, it was a monstrosity to have first thing in the morning but I'd do it again in a second. You get to pick what flavor gelato is in the coffee and I went with chocolate to which they replied, great choice! I agree, it was such a good mix with the cold coffee brew. The gelato was so creamy with amazing flavor, I can't wait to come back and try more off their menu!
