Deliiiiicious ice cream. Ube is heavy, be ready to leave full. Mango sticky rice, chocolate are all good flavors. Can sit down next door at the sister restaurant

A must-visit ice cream shop in University Heights! We tried the Guava Cream Cheese, and it was absolutely delicious—creamy, flavorful, and perfectly balanced. I ended up getting the Ube Pandesal Toffee and Mango Sticky Rice, and both were incredible. The Ube Pandesal Toffee is easily one of the best ube ice creams I’ve ever had. It was rich, creamy, and paired perfectly with the buttery toffee and toasted pandesal flavors. The Mango Sticky Rice was equally impressive, capturing the essence of the classic dessert with fresh mango flavor and creamy coconut notes. The texture of the ice cream is exceptionally smooth, and you can really taste the quality of the ingredients. Their flavors are unique, creative, and not overly sweet. I can’t wait to come back and try more!

Wish I didn’t have to spend money on ice cream that I had to toss because it was overly sweet. I had been recommended the Ube flavor which is one of their regular flavors but the texture was off and it didn’t actually taste like ube. They are trying to be unique with their flavor combinations, but they all unfortunately turned out to be flavorless. The staff seemed utterly disinterested in helping us choose flavors or even serving us to be honest. Unfortunately all the hype I saw about this place was a far cry from reality and I won’t be returning.

Stella Ice Cream is easily one of the best ice cream spots in San Diego. It wouldn’t be fair to compare it to An’s they’re both awesome and honestly two of the top five ice cream places in the city. I had the baklava and the mango and both were amazing. Great flavors, great quality, and definitely worth checking out. 🍦

Nice place to try if you haven't been there. The line is long but they got ways to keep first-timers busy (see my photos). But if you're buying the pint, there is no waiting. Flavors are cool. I tried the Mint Stracciatella. It's a very unique taste (almost like all the flavors starts popping in your mouth one after another). If it wasn't for my heart condition, I would have gone for it. But I settled with the sticky rice mango to be on the healthy side--at least I thought. Well, it's not your typical Southeast Asian Vietnamese sticky rice mango dessert treat. No, it's more like coconut mango ice cream--no sticky rice. But I have to say, I really like the interaction between the mango and coconut so I'm giving them a 5 out of 5. I thought just the coconut made it perfectly sweetened. Service from the young gentleman on the Saturday night when we were there was excellent, too. He asked if I wanted to test and then asked again if I wanted to test another one. There wasn't anything else my pallet would go for so I declined. But I appreciate his eagerness to have me try another one. The environment was nice even though we thought the neighborhood seemed sketchy. The onl
