This is how a hand dip freezer should look
Orange float and cookie monster ice cream
See al the mold on the upper right there. Well that's not supposed to be there.

All the ice build up is so think that the dirty ice falls into the clean ice cream below. Very unhealthy!

Good food with good views is good for the soul. Ice cream and the ocean are cheaper than therapy.

My heart says pizza and wine, but my bikini says eat coffee ice cream with a view.

Always one of my favorite places to stop in and grab a quick bite of ice cream before and or after walking the San Clemente pier.

I was craving an ice cream, and this place was packed.. probably because it was the only place open. I was fooled by the crowds..The rush just left, so we did not have to wait long for service. I got a vanilla cone, and sorely disappointed. Not only in the serve but in the taste. It was a sorry excuse for a cone. I couldn't even bare to take a picture of it.

A little shop across the atreet from the pier. A nice place to get your ice creams and floats on a hot day. Service is okay, staffed by high schoolers in the area. Might be hard to find parking but easy access if you are on foot.

3 Items ordered:Chocolate malt was chocolate ice cream with too much milk and too much malt. Consistency was very liquid and horrible taste.Coke float was a cup of soft serve and handed a bottle of coke.Hot fudge sundae was a cup of soft serve with a tablespoon of hot fudge on top.Counter staff seemed totally disinterested!

First of all, go next door and thank me later. The ice cream in the display looked sad and lifeless. Therefore we opted for a soft serve from the machine and boy was that an equally bad option. There was only 1 employee working that handles ringing customers up and preparing the orders. The cone was $3.75 + tax and OMG was it ugly. He made the worst swirl i've ever seen and honestly it tasted like the ice cream you use to get from the buffets.. icey and flavorless.

What's there not to like -- Dole Whip on the beach. This is located next to the beach underneath the hotels and condos that face the ocean. The cashier wore a mask and used fresh gloves.A great treat for a sunny day.

I can't not get icecream whenever I pass an icecream shop, so this stop was a must as we were walking around San Clemente. This place is poppin' -- it was quite busy for a Saturday afternoon. They have a load of different options...from Dole Whips to frozen yogurt to icecream and milkshakes, it really has an option for all dessert lovers. I got a single scoop of icecream with Cookies and Cream and Salted Caramel, and my sister got a scoop of Lemon Sorbet since she wanted something more refreshing. Don't get me wrong, we loved our icecream, though the prices are a little steep for how much you're getting. My real qualm came from the fact that the worker charged us for three single scoops instead, and our total came out to over $12 bucks. Once we realized what had happened though, our card had already been charged. He had to go get his manager from the pizza shop next door but it was a whole ordeal and our icecream legit melted by the time we had figured it all out. They gave us a refund but then charged us again for the two scoops, which I guess is to be expected. Don't know if I'll be back since this experience kind of threw me off, but still, it's an icecream shop in a cool location.

What do you get when you have an ice cream shop beachfront? A very happy ViVi. You'll probably recognize some of the faces because the staff works next door at Cosentino's. These people serve up food that make people happy. Super happy. You can have pizza and ice cream by the same awesome owners! Wonderful flavors because most of these are Blue Bunny ice cream flavors. The ice cream is soft serve and delicious. The lemon sorbet is really refreshing and the coffee is my favorite. The strawberry is a hit as well. Big scoops served in a waffle cone (at least my preference) and ask for the magic color changing spoon. Why not? It's magic. A balanced diet is ice cream in each hand. Be a kid and enjoy the simple pleasures of life. Or if all else fails, it's Instagram worthy.

The worse ice cream place ever. Ordered 2 scoops (1 scoop $4; 2 scoop $5.50), paid $5.50 but my 2 scoops didn't even look like it's 2 scoops. Looked like 1/2 a scoop for each flavor. Nice location, in front of the beach but bad service. It's nice this company gives chances to young kids' (maybe about 12-14 yr olds) jobs to experience scooping ice cream. But because it's frozen, he doesn't and cannot even do a decent scoop. This is a rip off.
