The Most Scrumptious Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt in Santa Ana

Rich Farm Ice Cream

★★★★★ 4.6 (819) • $$

"New year, new prices... I guess. I've been coming here for a couple years now and LOVE their ice cream! They make some of the best ice cream in Orange County. Hands down. I still stand by that. But it looks like since the new year, the prices have gone up dramatically. Not like 5-10%. 36.8% increase to be exact (on the large size; used to be 9.50 out the door, now over $13 OTD)! 36.8%!!! Look, I get it. Prices of everything has gone up. But maybe make a strategy to increase prices incrementally over the next couple of years instead of such a steep price jump. Sad because I'll definitely be coming here less. Maybe this is the incentive I needed to eat healthier this year."

"They have some great gourmet flavors of ice cream. You can tell that they are using real ingredients, not just flavorings. They're variety is perfect for a unique and enjoyable experience. Also, I had a red velvet cake and it surprised me. Usually cake is way too sweet for me, but they made it with a mild sweetness that made it great for an evening snack without getting sugar sickness.The two people that were working there were very kind and patient. I'm glad I stopped by."

"Great service and wide variety of options! The Popeyes açaí was delicious! Anja is such a sweet girl!"

On A Roll

★★★★★ 4.8 (39)

"I had never tried rolled ice cream before, and On a Roll was my first experience with this viral, novelty treat. The 'Exotic Essence' and 'Creamy Pistachio' flavors were instant favorites. My dad was so excited to devour it, based on the beautiful presentation of the ice creams!! The Exotic Essence was beautifully fragrant and aromatic, while the Pistachio lived up to its name--creamy, rich, and perfectly nutty. What I really appreciate is that the ice cream isn't overly sweet, so you can truly savor the flavors rather than just sugar. We also tried the Mudslide, and it was delicious! Plus, they offer halal marshmallows, which is a great bonus. The location is clean and bright, with friendly and helpful service. Shoutout to Ahmed, who patiently helped our indecisive family pick the perfect flavors. We'll definitely be back to share this unique ice cream experience with our loved ones."

September

"Stepping into this coffee shop was like entering a dream world. The decor is adorable and there are numerous cozy nooks, and plenty of room for seating. With an extensive menu featuring everything from specialty lattes to fruity teas and craft cocktails, there's something for everyone. This place is a must-visit.We came in on a Sunday morning, we arrived just as they opened and had the place to ourselves. This coffee shop has won my heart, the vibe is unforgettable! But most importantly... the coffee was soooo good. I can't stop thinking about the iced coffee I had, it was DELICIOUS."

Brianna's Ice Cream

★★★★☆ 4 (112) • $

"Don't let the name fool you! They have amazing tortas, toasted sandwiches, & more! Fresh fruit , healthy juices & smoothies made to order! And they do catering too! They have long time employees who greet you with a smile. They open super early! 4 am so skip that St**b**ks line & get something freshly made to order!"

La Michoacana

★★★★☆ 3.6 (34)

"Another La Michoacana location! This one has been here awhile and is a 'premium' location. I'm not sure what the premium means but it is more expensive than the Chapman location. One complaint I have is that there are no labeling of the flavors for the ice cream or popsicles. So for those unfamiliar with Mexican flavors (and there are many interesting and unique flavors), you have to ask the employee. There was one person working when we visited. When we asked her to translate the flavors to English, she wasn't able to for several flavors. ‍Also the menu board is in Spanish. A good percentage of customers are not Hispanic so an English menu is not too much to ask."

Filo Dessert

★★★★★ 4.8 (228) • $

"I had my eye on this spot for a couple of months and finally got the chance to try it on Sunday afternoon for some coffee and dessert. The place was beautifully decorated, not busy at all, and perfectly located at the Chapman entrance just before the Circle. We ordered the Dubai latte and karak with saffron tea, both served in elegant glassware, which was a nice touch. For dessert, we tried the Basbousa, a homemade coconut cake, paired with Biscoff ice cream, and everything was absolutely perfect. The flavors were well-balanced, not overly sweet, and the coffee was served at just the right temperature (not scalding hot, thankfully). The man working there was incredibly kind and knowledgeable, even offering us samples of their homemade ice creams. Hoping this place thrives because the Circle could definitely use more cultural diversity and unique flavors!"

Crafted Cone Ice Cream & Desserts

★★★★★ 5 (105)

"Me and my friend were craving some ice so we came to check Crafted out and our cravings were satisfied by amazingly fresh and creamy ice cream.The owners gave us a breakdown of all of their handmade daily ice cream and gave us the best tasting experience.They have the best neon sign displayed inside!I'm a huge fanatic of good ice and I'll be coming here very frequently!"

Shake Shack Costa Mesa

★★★☆☆ 3 (114) • $$

"Ordered from their new location recently (where pancakes r us used to be RIP) on 17th st. They were offering a Bogo deal on their truffle burger so how could I refuse ? My order came thru in good time and I of course opted for lettuce wrap. I highly recommend you go with a bun on this particular order as it be on the salty side with just lettuce. But overall the burger was juicy, delicious and the fragrant truffle came thru in every bite so no complaints there. Seems like they're getting a bad rap lately but the burgers are still solid in my opinion compared to the other options and I'm also glad there's a location closer to my home now. Overall, highly recommended for any burger aficionado that has a hankering for a quality tasting burger, they definitely satisfy the hankering for a burger fix!Happy Eats!"

Le Cafe Du Parc

★★★★☆ 4.1 (256) • $$

"I love love love crepes. I found out about the existence of this cafe when I visited my friend, who lives in this Irvine company apartment village. I never knew they have shops in these mega apartment complexes. The fact that they had crepes was a calling card for me to come back and come back I did. I ordered the fruit crepe with Nutella and pistachio sauce, and it has ruined all crepe experiences for me. This is the most amazing and delicious crepe I've had ever. The crepe itself is on the chewy side, which is so good. The sauces were decadent and I would be lying if I didn't say I was licking them off the packaging. The fruit was fresh and abundant. When I came back in and took some pics for the Yelp, I told the employee that this was the best crepe I've ever had and he recommended the Belgium one for next time as it has Belgium chocolate on it along with bananas and strawberries. I told him, why wait, and I ordered the Belgium to go. I did split it up into 3 servings for the week, but the chocolate sauce is devine. They serve illy coffee, which complements the crepes. I am beyond excited I found this amazing crepe destination. Parking is tricky on street level, but there is garage level visitor parking also. Service is amazing. Outdoor seating is comfortable. Please visit to create your own experience."

Dripp

"Been coming here for years. The ambiance is amazing for getting work done. It gets packed pretty easily since it's nearby multiple colleges. They do have a lot of seating inside though. I always order the Spanish Latte. The cinnamon flavor is pretty strong and it's overall very sweet, which I like. I don't normally order their food but this little sandwich was good. Cool place!"

May's Ice Cream And Juice

★★★★☆ 4.4 (11)

"Every time I walk by here to go to Pacific Bakery to pick up my cake...I just want to go and try their chamango! So finally one day I decided to try it! Tell the lady what you want and she'll make it for you and then charge you later. The chamango came out to be $4.50 so not too bad I think. It was more on the sweet side, which I personally like. It was also pink and not the usual red/yellow color that I'm used too. They also give you a small stick of that tamarind candy, it comes separate so you can enjoy it on its own. I'll definitely come back to get it again if I ever crave it when I go to pick up a cake!"

Tiger Plate

★★★★☆ 4.3 (460) • $$

"I love poke and this TG hits the spot!! I like their menu options and specifically for the CYOB in which you can choose from the 3oz, 4oz or 6oz bowls ranging from cost of $10.50 to $16.40. To cost-save on eating but still provided with a great taste - I typically go for the Kids (3oz) bowl @ $10.50 - a perfect portion for me! I also do LOVE their Poke Nachos @ $10.50. This is the place to get it! Their tortilla chips are thick and generally holds most of the crunch even after 1/2 hour - 1 hour of not eating it immediately. It reminds me of the poke nachos from Poke to the Moon (closed earlier this year). I typically order online for pick-up because I get to control the customizations to my liking. Under Special Requests - they allow you to choose Light Sauced (Mixed), Extra Sauce (Mixed) or Separate Base/Fish and they allow you to select a sauce if you want it to drizzle over your bowl. I love sauces so I take advantage when I can.For their rewards program, for every visit you make you earn 1 point. When you get to 10 points you get 10% off the entire sale or 20% of entire sale when you collect 20 points. Sometimes they'll email out discounts - just gotta keep an eye out for those. So worth using. Oh check in on Yelp app and you do get a free soda can drink.Great location in Costa Mesa on Bristol. Parking can be a bit tough to find if you go during their busy rush times and weekend. If you're a poke lover you gotta try Tiger Plate!"

La Michoacana Ice Cream Santa Ana

★★★☆☆ 2.9 (8)

"La Michoacana Ice Cream in Santa Ana serves up some really tasty ice cream with a fun twist! The flavors are rich and creamy, and they have a great selection to choose from. However, I will say the ice cream is a little on the pricier side compared to other places, but it's worth it for the quality.One thing that really stands out here is their specialty items. They have some unique options, including one with Hot Cheetos, which is a huge hit! If you're looking for something different and fun to try, this is the place to go."

La Michoacana Delights

★★★★☆ 4.3 (103) • $

"Service: Only one employee was serving but they did an incredible job. They answered a lot of the questions we had regarding taste of the flavors and were helpful. Once we made our choices service was swift and no issues whatsoever.Inside: Super adorable setup with a great Instagram worthy wall. Enough chairs available to sit on for two or four to a table. Food: The options are outstanding. You've got the range from chocolate, rich and creamy, to more fruit like flavors and that's not even counting all of the topping options too. If you're craving it there is something for you at La Michoacana Delights. We went for the more fruity mix with guava. No issues and no complaints about flavor. According to their sign inside, this shop crafts their wares locally in Orange, CA. It is always exciting to support local small businesses. Parking is free and there was enough available. Their hours look to be afternoon to evening for this season."

La Michoacana Delicious Ice Cream

★★★★☆ 3.6 (27)

"The mangonadas with their mango ice cream are delicious! I used to get them elsewhere, but they are the best here and aren't watery like some other places. They taste so good with chamoy and diced mango on top. Their paletas (popsicles) are also very delicious. My favorite are the watermelon, lemon and the mango ones. The tamales and esquites are also very good. I've always been greeted with great service and they're always so nice here. They even have a punch card for each visit and you get something free at the end. You can't go wrong with this place. They have a variety of snacks and everything is sure to hit the spot."

KuteKook

"Okay yall.. I normally pass on ice cream because it makes my tummy hurt, but I couldn't give up a chance to try real fruit ice cream with Asian inspired flavors! Their ingredients are always fresh, drinks and ice cream made in house, and their matcha is of the best quality. I was not disappointed On days I am willing to sacrifice for the dairy, i will be choosing lychee ice cream. Every. Time.

La Michoacana Ice Cream Of Orange

★★★☆☆ 3.2 (77) • $

"I am so happy that this ice cream shop is close to home! This chain is very popular in Mexico, which reminds me of so many memories I have visiting my family back home.This shop is HUGE! The layout is very spread out and offer probably over 50 traditional and non-traditional ice cream flavors. For example, they have the typical vanilla, cookies n cream, and mint flavored ice cream, but also some unique flavors like tequila, rum, "starbucks", and my favorite arroz con leche. They make their ice cream in-store so you know it is very fresh. The staff here is friendly. I highly suggest everyone visits this chain to explore the different flavors and Mexican treats they have to offer."

Jalisco’s Ice Cream

★★★★☆ 4.4 (45)

"My daughter uncite me to this place and is absolutely amazing, there's plenty of parking outside the building, when you get in you can notice is clean and neat, very cozy and organized. You can buy a lollipop, nieve de garrafa, ice cream and deserts like the cconcha bread with ice cream, mini pancakes, etc. Water, sodas, energy drinks. Ice cream in cups or water. The flavors are exquisite, prices are very affordable. Go and check for yourself. And the best the girls attending are so nice and helpful to make the right choice about what to getting."

Shake Shack

★★★☆☆ 2.8 (91) • $$

"We ordered the ShackBurger, SmokeShack, Truffle Burger, one small drink and a single order of fries. For 5 items, the price still boggles my mind to this day, $42!? GYAT!!!! What in the skibidi is going on?!Anyways, the burgers are also maybe half the size of what their promotional pictures depict, and it comes pretty smashed-looking (pic for reference). The one that had the most flavor was of course the Truffle Burger, but the onion rings in the burger were definitely not crispy. Also, I think I finished my burger in all of 3 minutes since it's so small.If you come here to eat with a friend on a budget, it's probably best to fanum tax your friend."

Saffron Spot

★★★★☆ 3.8 (368) • $

"I happened to be on this side of town and made a random stop here. The shop is clean. Customer service was great. Jocelyn was running the shop this evening, and she took the time to explain different items on the menu as well as allowing me to sample different ice cream flavors. I choose the rose falooda with kulfi kreme ice cream. I though the flavors meshed well together and really satisfied my sweet tooth. As a side note, kulfi kreme is a dollar extra when ordering a falooda. Overall, it was a good experience, and I would come back again!"
