5.0 of 5 stars. Great ice cream. Probably my second favorite place in the city. They have a great selection of tropical flavors. Parking is tough, but definitely worth it.

5.0 of 5 stars. They have the best tropical flavors in the Bay Area. The lines are always long, even on a cold day. That should tell you that this place is good.

5.0 of 5 stars. I've been going here since I was a kid and it's still a wonderful treat. I recommend all the tropical flavors (ube, macapuno, halo-halo, langka, and mango). It's utter delight!

2.0 of 5 stars. Overrated ice cream place. Sure they have many different, interesting flavors, but who wants to wait 10 minutes minimum to get a scoop of ice. I rather have Rite-Aid for my mint choco chip for $1!

The ice cream here is SOOO good! Between the usual flavors (New York Cherry-YUUUUUUUUM!) to the unusual or "tropical" (Macapuno-DOUBLE YUM!)I have yet to find a flavor that my family and I don't like.
