Salt & Straw

Salt & Straw Pasadena absolutely delivered. The Double Fold Vanilla was to die for — rich, creamy, and insanely satisfying. Honestly, worth the trip just for that flavour alone. They let you sample different flavours (which is dangerous in the best way), and the scoop sizes were super generous. Staff were friendly and patient, even with a line. If you’re in the area and even remotely into ice cream, go. Just go.

I had the most pleasant experience with Camille! This was my first time coming to this shop at the recommendation of my friend. We got helped by Camille; she was super friendly!!! She gave owner recommendations and popular combinations. I ended up going with the Goat Cheese marionberry Habanero along with Huckleberry Cornbread pudding. The goat cheese flavor is really good because it has a slight twinge of spice and is slightly salty. I thought it would be good to balance it out with the Huckleberry flavor but that turned out being too sweet for me eventually. A sample that I liked, that I would get next time is the olive oil flavor. Despite the name, it just tastes light, smooth, and kind of vanilla-y. It fits anyone who doesn't like strong flavors, it doesn't even taste strongly like

Came here on a weekend in the evening after FIFA Club World Cup game Monterey vs. Club Atlético River Plate. Line moved fast. Staff was welcoming and offered samples without being pushy. Tried a few flavors before ordering Scoop was about $6.50 but quality justifies it. You taste real ingredients. Small space inside, limited seating. Street benches nearby work fine. Service was fast, place was clean, and the flavors are unlike anything at regular ice cream shops. Worth the stop if you're in Pasadena. I’ll be back.

Stopped by for a dessert while out on Colorado Blvd on a Saturday afternoon. There was a line of about 30 people which continued onto the sidewalk. However, line was moving at a decent pace and had my ice cream within 20 minutes. This was good timing as they allowed everyone to taste multiple flavors without rushing anyone. There was a large variety of flavors from the recurring classic flavors to the limited edition flavors. Flavors were very unique and creative which causes you to be adventurous. After trying a few flavors, opted for the Peanut Butter Brittle Caramel Fudge and Chocolate Gooey Brownie in a split cup. The split cup was basically a single scoop of each which was plenty of ice cream. Flavor was delicious and the texture was very creamy. Everyone in the group was hap

A cute ice cream place in old Pasadena that serves quality ice cream. They have variety of flavors that are not common which is what makes this place unique. The staff is nice and the service is great, they recommend to taste all flavors before ordering which is really good, thumbs up for maintaining hygiene. My wife got strawberry honey balsamic with black pepper and I ordered chocolate gooey brownie in a waffle cone. They make waffle cone fresh which adds up to the taste and freshness. Portions are generous and value for money, loved both flavors, if you are in the town, don’t miss out on this place.
