Reviews for Mateo's Ice Cream & Fruit Bars in Los Angeles, CA

As a Latina who just moved to the state, I was pretty excited to find an ice cream shop that was laid back & had the unique... flavors I love. I ended up getting 2 big scoops-one of coconut and one passion fruit for $5! Compared to other ice cream shopsthat give you a teaspoon for $7, this was a great find. They do let you sample ice cream before buying, so I?d do that since notall of the flavors are as amazing as the last. The interior decor seems to be their signature style, it?s an old design & aging,but seems to fit their overall vibe. It?s very close to the bike path?so this is a great pick me up after a long ride. Indoorseating: 2-3 tables. Read more

I love coming here for lunch or something fresh and cold. I wish they had location in the southbay Lawndale

The ice cream was delicious and the fruit bar was good.

Their paletas are excellent! So many flavors to choose from. I really love the sorbet flavors. My friend loves this place so... much she had them cater her wedding! Read more

This place here, puts Cold Stones to shame!!! OMG, the ice cream is creamy and dreamy? Husband and I shared two scoops (one of... each) Coconut and Horchata. The coconut ice cream had nice pieces of coconut and horchata which is a flavor that you won?t seeat your average ice cream shop, was Yumilicious. Thank you for a wonderful experience. We definitely are customers forlife???????????? Read more

Only 3 people allowed in at a time because of covid. They have a lot of sherbets and ice cream, also popsicles. I tried their... guava and mango sorbet. Both were not to sweet. Just perfect. 2 scoops was $5. Can't wait to try their other flavors. Customerservice was excellent. Read more

Vegetarian review! TL;DR at the end. Wow! This place has a veggie sandwich combo which is really great considering its price... point! (I paid 11.88 with tax at the time of this review) The combo comes with a sandwich, bionic fruit cup, half an orange anda small beverage of your choice which can be freshly made juice! I got pineapple juice and it was everything I could have wishedfor. -The sandwich- This slim hero has black beans, lettuce, tomato, cucumbers, onions, fresh cheese, avocado, mayonnaise, androasted veggies like squash and red bell peppers. the sandwich is roasted and placed in what I think is a panini press I'm notsure but it's delightfully toasty and crunchy when you bite into what I believe is French bread. -The bionic fruit cup- whichin this place translates to dried coconut, granola bits and yogurt over an actual medley of fruit! It has strawberry, papaya,melon, apple I was very pleasantly surprised! Sandwich good, combo price great! All in all this place is very clean and socolorful and makes for a bunch of cute Instagram photos. The meal left me very satisfied I know I came to an ice cream shop butI ended up eating a meal which did not leave me wanting and that's saying a lot for a place that specializes in ice cream. 11/10would come again!

Hey, why isn't it a 5? Fruit bars were 5 but ice cream was probably a 4. I tried coconut flavor and it wasn't a 5. Service was... great for a crowded place and do ask to try before you buy. It could be hard to find parking in front so park on the street orfurther away from laundromat. Read more
