Stella Jean's Ice Cream Point Loma

The most popular flavors Ube and Mango sticky rice did not disappoint. Friendly worker who was able to answer questions, provide recommendations and tastings. A cute location with street parking.

So yummy! Having Celiac means I don’t get to eat a lot of waffle cones, so had to try their gluten free one while in town visiting. It was amazing!!! Had the strawberry oat and mango sticky rice flavors, both were also gluten free — 10/10.

Cute little place with both indoor and outdoor seating. I tried the double chocolate ice cream, and it was splendid. They also sell by the pint and keep the order ready for a quick check out.

Was looking for vegan ice cream and found Stella's. Locally sourced ingredients and the flavors are unique. My favorite so far is the Grapefruit Peppercorn, the MangoSticky Rice, and Pineapple POG are also very good from the vegan selection. Hubby really enjoyed the Ube Pandesal Toffee. Staff have been stellar every time we have been in. Our new favorite treat!

Nice little shop with decadent flavours. Found the prices quite high as a single waffle cone & single cup of ice cream came to almost $20 USD.

Extremely well flavored ice cream. The options actually taste like what they say they're supposed to. The sugar hits well too, I'm surprised by the flavors and really enjoyed it. I got the chocolate flavor. While I don't typically like creamy ice cream, this one was unique and I really enjoyed it. Highly recommend this location.

Bomb flavor options & generous + friendly service (give that girl scooping in my pic a raise!!!) I had the mango sticky rice with the ube pandesal toffee 🤤🤌🏼 the single split is a great deal for 1 person!

every time i go the workers are always so sweet! I take people here whenever they’re visiting! The ube toffee is my favorite but i also love their seasonal flavors. Each flavor is incredibly unique

My partner and I love stopping by after a day at the beach, or whenever we're in the area. Parking can be a little tricky, depending on the time, but if there isn't parking available behind the business (there are a couple of designated spots for Stella Jean's), then there is usually street parking available if you drive around a little. The staff is friendly here and offer samples. Our personal favorites that we've had so far would be the ube + pandesal toffee and the mango sticky rice! There are plenty of flavors that are year round, as well as seasonal flavors. Lots of seating options as Stella Jean's shares a space with Pop Pie. The overall atmosphere is very welcoming!

Can't say I'm a fan of ice cream. I rarely get ice cream. We came here cause my girlfriend loves ice cream and I thought she would love Stella Jeans. However, one flavor caught my attention. The mango sticky rice...it seems like an odd place to have such a flavor. The last time and the only time I had mango sticky rice ice cream was in Thailand, at Swensen's to be specific, and I loved it. Right away, I had to ask for a sample. Oh man...I immediately ordered a kids scoop (I loved the ice cream and just didn't want to eat a lot). It was rich, creamy, and accurate. The mango flavor was pure and refreshing. It wasn't too sweet but very succulent and aromatic. The coconut cream and sticky rice flavor was spot on. It tasted just like how my grandma made it. It was lightly sweet and salty with a hint of pandan aroma. I'm Thai and let me tell you, it was amazing. Must try! I overheard that the owners were Thai and Hispanic. This explains why they have this flavor. Please, keep coming out with a flavor like this. I will be waiting! Also, I want to mention how lovely the staff were. Everyone was friendly and very helpful. We felt really welcoming. They made everything that much better. It really added to the whole experience. We live so far from here, but honestly, I would drive 1.5 hours to this location for the staff. Thank you for being awesome!

Run for these seasonal flavors. Earl grey and the Oaxcan chocolate are freaking delicious. Matcha Pistachio was good but the Earl Grey was the clear winner. The line may be long but once it's your turn, the peeps behind the counter do a great job in offering samples and not rushing you. Split scoops are the best to try two flavors. That's what we got to share between the two of us. If it's just you and you don't want too much ice cream, try a kids scoop. They also have pints to purchase and you can skip the longer scoops line to grab a pint. Seating outside (about 5-6 tables that seat two each) or plenty of seating inside. They share a space with Pop Pie which you should def try as well. Parking can be a hassle. We looped the block about 3x on a Thursday night. Was it worth our patience? Yes!

What a treat! Ice cream is so rich in flavor. The guy that helped us was super friendly.

Another good experience at Stella Jean's! This time I tried the seasonal strawberry basque cheesecake flavor and it was awesome.

Forever fan of Stella Jeans and I was happy to finally visit this location. This one does have seating inside and a bathroom but it seems like people gravitate to Pop Pie Co. more. As it seems as they usually aren't busy, there was a bell to ring to summon a worker from the back. The ice cream is always high quality and the workers are always so sweet. Parking is very limited so expect street parking. So happy theres more locations!

I loved everything from the friendliness of the staff who didn't even correct me when I went through the line backwards, they were so sweet for that. Ice cream tastes as it's described and while I didn't care for the burnt honey goat cheese I couldn't fault them for it. I just realized I prefer more sweet flavors. My kids loved the vanilla. They have 3 parking spots behind the Pop Pie building we were lucky to find one.

The staff were welcoming and helpful when deciding on flavors. The place is located on a corner and it's located next to a pie shop. Same owners. Plant and hipster vibes which makes it unique and artsy. From out of town and whenever I'm in San Diego it's a must to get Stella Jean! The ice cream hits!

After a very delicious dinner in Point Loma, I was in the mood for a sweet treat. To my surprise, Stella Jeans popped up as an open dessert spot nearby. Finally! I heard of Stella Jeans but wasn't really sure where it was so I'm glad I got to try it. They only have a handful of flavors and unique ones at that. I asked to sample almost all of them. Prepare your taste buds because these flavors are so different, you'll definitely be shocked at flavor profiles. I had a really hard time deciding what to get but ended up choosing their seasonal pumpkin spice and one of their ube flavors. It was pretty yummy and satisfied my cravings for sure. I'll be honest, I'm not sure if there was a particular flavor on that rotation that I truly loved but maybe next time I will find the one!

Came here to grab a sweet treat to take along to catch the sunset at Sunset Cliffs! The staff was extremely welcoming and friendly as we sampled various flavors. We ended up choosing Ube Pandesal, Mango Sticky Rice, Earl Grey, and Matcha Pistachio. We both got the split single in a waffle cone, that way we can get two flavors! The names matched the flavors exactly and all were very delicious! Our faves were Ube Pandesal and Mango Sticky Rice! If you have a sweet tooth and craving some ice cream, this is the spot!

stella jeans is definitely one of my go-to ice cream places in san diego. they have a lot of very unique flavors, my favorites are mango sticky rice and strawberry oat crumble! the service is usually pretty fast and friendly, and you can sample various flavors before ordering. there are a couple of tables inside and outside to sit and enjoy your sweet treat. they share a building with their sister company, pop pie. would recommend!

As always id say Stella jeans is probably my favorite ice cream shop in San Diego. This location didn't disappoint either. I like how this location has more inside seating The s'mores flavor and ube pandesol flavors are always my favorite. Service as always is just as good as always.

Came here for dessert after dinner. Friendly staffs. Cute ice cream spot connected to pot pie. Good selection of ice cream. We got the Ube Pandesal and the mango sticky rice. Both were good.

August Stop 53 I LOVE STELLA JEANS. No matter how far away I am, if someone brings up Stella Jeans, I am down. I love ice cream, but the ice cream here is just out of the park good. They have a number of seasonal flavors that vary in taste based off my preferences. But that is ok because there are so many flavors! You are bound to like one of them. Personally, I love their jam centric seasonal flavors, so right now the Guava Cream Cheese is my go to! But I know I can always rely on their Ube Pandasal flavor which is always there. I don't think there is much ice cream that can compare to these! I typically get a split single in a cup, so that way I can get two flavors, and they really pack it in here! The staff are always super friendly and helpful too! Almost always, I will even take a pint or two home! Maybe not the best use of my money but wow this stuff is amazing.

We always love Stella Jeans ice cream - original location. We were in Point Loma so we tried this location. Similar to North Park, parking can be a challenge. This location has more tables to enjoy eating your ice cream. We had the ube pandesal and it seems to have more pandesal and ube flavor than the North Park location. I should say this is how it tasted originally at the North Park location but though out the years they haven't been consistent and seems to have a watered down version. The s'mores is my all time favorite flavor. The pot pie area has dessert pies and cookies that are not in the North Park location.

AMAZING!! new favorite ice cream shop, literally came here 3 days in a row after trying it for the first time. the mango sticky rice flavor was so interesting but can be a hit or miss, i personally loved it! the ube flavor is me & my friends favorite, definitely recommend. the atmosphere was so cute, such an adorable little place! the staff was super friendly as well. i recommend getting the kids size (pictures on left) because it's cheaper and a pretty big amount!

Yum! Really good ice cream and really nice service. Next time we're in the area we will come back.

Ice cream is incredible!!! I was in the area craving some ice cream and found this place and I'm Sooo glad I did! It's on a busy street with limited parking, not familiar with the area, so there maybe additional parking somewhere else? I got lucky and found a spot right in front. The shop is really small and cute with lots of outdoor seating which I would have enjoyed but it was pouring rain that day. To my surprise there was no line and the server suggested a few flavors and was super nice. I ended up with S'mores & Ube and they were both phenomenal! Would definitely come back to try more flavors!

Butter Pecan and Ube Ice Cream This place was super hyped up to me by friends. I picked their favorites (and butter pecan is one of my general favorites) and this place fell flat unfortunately. The staff is super nice and friendly, and the interior is super cute and this particular location is attached to a Pop Pie so that was fun, but this ice cream was way too sweet and kind of underwhelming. The ube was sort of fun to try, but also got tiring to eat after a bit.

Whenever an ice cream craving hits, there's no question that it's Stella Jean's ice cream. It is locally made in small batches, and you can really taste the quality. With a unique flavor line up that's continually changing, you will never get bored or be able to decide which flavor you want to try next! There's also vegan options as well, so there's something for everyone! There are two locations in San Diego and one in Costa Mesa, and each shop has it's own style and adorable interior. Stella Jean's ice cream is a sister brand to Pop Pie Co. so you can get your scoop accompanied by a savory or sweet pie! My go-to ice cream flavors are Ube + Pandesal in a freshly made waffle cone of course!

I absolutely LOVE the unique flavors they have here. As a Filipina, ube has been one of my favorite ice cream flavors since I was young. My friend recommended this place to me, suggesting the ube pandesal for me to try. I'm so used to ube and ube macapuno, so the idea of a new ube combination excited me. I fell in love after the first bite. The ice cream was perfectly thick and creamy, and the pandesal toffee made for the perfect crunchy contrast in textures. This ice cream was so good that I started craving it the day after I had it, and I immediately told my boyfriend about this place so he could try it with me. Needless to say I'll be coming back! The shop could be hard to find for people, as it shares a space with a pie restaurant. Although I came for the ice cream, maybe I'll try a pie next time I visit. Keep in mind parking can be difficult to find, there is no dedicated parking lot so you will have to find street parking. The seating area directly in front of the Stella Jeans side is also quite small, but you can sit anywhere in the shop, even on the pie restaurant's side.

BEST ICE CREAM I EVER HAD!! Must try their Ube Pandesal Toffee and Brown Butter Pecan flavors! Deliciousssss :)

Already an existing fan of Stella Jean's Ice Cream. This location in Point Loma has the same quality product as their original store in University Heights; flavors are identical though availability looks slightly limited. Just as with the other shop, the neighboring sister business is Pop Pie Co., which they share the space with. There is indoor seating in the parlor, in addition to some patio seating. Service is friendly and attentive, though I usually only come during non-peak hours or if passing through from picking up/dropping off folks from the airport. Street parking can be a little difficult depending on the time of day. Always look forward to having a split scoop here. Favorite flavor is Earl Grey Tea Cake, but it's only seasonal and usually sells out fast when in season. Otherwise go-to are dairy-free options like the Strawberry Oat Crumble.

I have such a strong sweet tooth and stella jeans is one of the best ice cream spots I have tried. I got a single scoop of their ube pandesal and the flavor was phenomenal. I sampled a bunch of their flavors. They were all good but the ube pandesal was my favorite of what I sampled and I am glad I tried it. Definitely coming back here whenever I am in SD.

You can never go wrong with Stella Jean's. I love their Asian-inspired flavors, and I love that I can also get it alongside Pop Pie! Fav always flavor: mango sticky rice

Stella makes some of the most creative and delicious ice cream in San Diego! I went to their Point Loma location and had the ube+ Pandesal Toffee and the S'mores ice cream and both are so so good!! Great location next to their Pop Pie location with indoor seating. Service is good as always, and the ambiance is cute! Parking is rough though, it's all street parking and it can be hard to find.

Ordered Ube and Pandesal (scoop) and Hojicha and Salted Cream (pint) I first tried Stella Jeans with my sister when I was in San Diego. I've also been to the Costa Mesa location since and they're both equally delicious. This is probably my favorite chain ice cream shop in SoCal and Stella Jeans is the only place where I've purchased pints of ice cream outside of grocery stores. My favorite flavor is the hojicha and salted cream, which is currently back for the season. The first time I had it was a year ago and I ended up bringing a pint back home. I also got a scoop of the ube and pandesal during that visit and I love the crunchy bits of the pandesal. It matches super well with the ube and it is perfectly sweet. If you've never had hojicha before, it is a dark roasted tea so there is a strong tea flavor and it is perfectly balanced with the salted cream. The ice cream is a swirl of hojicha and some salted cream. I've had the mango sticky rice flavor, but I personally wasn't a huge fan, but most likely because I have no attachment to mango sticky rice in general. The mango sticky rice lived up to its name, but it doesn't make me wanna go back for more. I'm definitely excited to go back for the hojicha and salted cream and I'm going to get pints of it soon, but I eventually want to try the rest of the always flavors. The for now flavors also look super interesting.

The first time I tried their ice cream was from a pint that my kids brought back from the PB location. That got me curious about trying other flavors the next time we were close to one. The opportunity came up near the Point Loma location so I tried a coconut caramel and the strawberry crumble they had available. Both were very tasty so I opted for the half and half cone. The pie shop next door has a curry and vegetable version which is delicious as well! I highly recommend both

Stella Jean's is one of my favorite ice cream places in San Diego. Their famous mango sticky rice & ube pandesal with toffee are to die for. The mango tasted fresh and the ube... omg so YUM! I'm not obsessed with ube like most but this one is so good and the toffee gives it a nice crunch in every bite. Service was friendly and we were able to sample our hearts away. The scoops are pretty generous and I love the split scoop option for a small fee to try multiple flavors. It's very clean and modern inside with plenty of seating. This is a great location to get Stella Jean's for those who live more up north.

I've had some amazing vegan mango sticky rice ice cream. I didn't find this one to be that great in comparison. Barely taste the sticky rice and the mango flavor didn't really taste that much of fresh ataulfo mango. The strawberry oat crumble didn't really taste like fresh strawberries. My husband liked the mango sticky rice but I thought it just wasn't good enough.

L O V E this P L A C E Come to Vegas pleassseee! I already had went to the University Heights location. I love Stella Jean ice cream soooo freakin gooooooooood that I needed to come back again the next day before I had to leave San Diego. I actually had their waffle cone this time and it was AMAZING with the Ube Pandesal Toffee ice cream. I don't usually like waffle cones but this one was exceptional! Their ube ice cream has to be one of my favorite top ube ice creams I have ever tasted in my whole entire life. It just all blended together well and it wasn't too sweet. I can eat this every day. Service was great here! I forgot who was serving us but he literally had so much patience for me and my family. We tried a few samples for the 5 of us. Parking can be a nightmare though on a small note if you come here at a busy hour. We came on Sunday early. Parking was not that bad then. Keep up the great work! I will come here again and again when in town!

We were staying close by while visiting from out of town. Plenty of ice cream choices and quality is good, but nothing to brag about. Scoop sizes are bit skimpy. Though they have some unusual flavors which is cool. Neat concept with the ice cream offerings inline with the coffee shop and cookies, pies, cakes & sweet shop. It wasn't bad by any means it just wasn't for us.

Love love love this ice cream shop. Best ice cream in San diego for me right now. That's right salt and straw. I feel like the ice cream here is just well balanced, they don't have too much going on like some of salt and straws flavors. They've got their own unique flavors that elevate it above your traditional expected flavors. And they've got some seasonal options so you can try some new stuff. Gluten free and vegan options as well. You simply must try the ube and pandesal toffee. Don't be scared of the bright purple color. It tastes like a bolder, deeper, vanilla flavor, "that's a 10". This location is cool. Very bright and new with some awesome style. Check out the photos. Downside would be the parking, street parking only off a somewhat busy intersection. You can find stuff not too far and walk, but it's a bit of an inconvenience.

I rarely eat sweets, but Stella Jeans is one of the places where I think it is totally worth it to cheat on. This place is easily the best ice cream experience ever. There are so many unique flavors such as hojicha, mango sticky rice, strawberry oat crumble, buttered popcorn toffee, and much more. There are also a lot of seasonal flavors that come and go - so there are fresh choices to try each time. This time my friends and I got the chocolate, mango sticky rice, and - of course - the infamous ube pandesal. I don't think the chocolate was as special and worth. However, the mango sticky rice was definitely interesting and special. It really tasted like mango sticky rice, except in the form of ice cream. Exceptional. The ube pandesal is always a popular choice here and is always solid - and this was my favorite out of all the flavors still. The small breading bits taste amazing, and the ube/sugar blend is phenomenal. 10/10 would go here all the time for my cheat days.

We love going to Stella Jean's! We have so far visited their three locations in North Park, Point Loma (San Diego) and the one in Costa Mesa. I would say the Point Loma is still the prettiest one but we'd have to wait and see how their upcoming South Park location will look like! (Heard it through the grape vines.) Their version of the ube pandesal toffee ice cream is absolutely delicious especially when paired with the waffle cone! Both really complement each other well. We love Stella Jean's for championining Filipino and other Asian flavors

Stella Jeans is legitimately one of my favorite ice cream shops--EVER! The flavors are creative without being too wild and the waffle cones are the best! My favorite seasonal flavor has to be honey jasmine sable (P.S-- Can you make this a forever flavor?!) If you've been to the University Heights location, then you know it is more of a walk up and go type of shop even if there's minimal seating inside and outside. However, the Point Loma location is very spacious and connected to the sister company, Pop Pie! It's great because you can order a pie or cookie from Pop Pie then order Stella jeans to put right on top!

The Ube is divine! Gluten free waffle cones available! Great flavors to try. Easy menu to decipher for vegans and GF needs. Allergy menu available. Service was excellent. Loved the ambiance. Low key patio to sit in. ADA friendly, clean restrooms. Street parking.

BY FAR.... BY FARRRRR one of the best ice cream places I have been to. Not only the flavors of the ice cream were unique and extremely delicious but the staff was so polite and super friendly. She was very outgoing and was patient when trying flavors and even provided suggestions. I wish I got her name but she is a new hire that moved from Chicago. If the store manager is reading this, she is an incredible employee. The ube flavor ice cream is a must. All flavors were good. I tried 4 flavors and got stressed because I couldn't pick which one I wanted! ended up getting 2 doubles. HA.

I've always wanted to try this place! Rest assured you can ask to sample up to 2 ice creams. I ended up choosing the Ube pandesal with toffee. It reminded me when I was little, I used to stuff toasted pandesals with Ube ice cream. Sooo yum and nostalgic! Plus the location is so convenient, you can hop right over to Pop Pies for a coffee or sweet/savory pies. A complete meal in one area!

I've tried Stella Jean's in Hillcrest and was happy to find that they opened one here! We came here on a weekday night and it was fairly empty. I like how they My friend and I ordered a scoop of strawberry oat ice cream. I believe that this flavor is dairy-free. While the selection of flavors is small, I love how many different flavors they have. The strawberry oat flavor is absolutely delicious! It is a bit tangy and sweet, and the oat bits give it a nice texture. I don't usually eat fruit-flavored ice creams but this was really good. The staff was also super nice and the placed was very clean! TLDR: unique ice cream flavors in a chill environment

Fun day date! Pot pie and ice cream. Both delicious and great flavors. Really like the toffee bits in the ube ice cream. Also took home a pint of calamansi creamsicle which ended up being my fave flavor.

Was getting some food next door and noticed people getting ice cream, so we had to check it out! They have a variety of flavors and unique ones that you don't see everywhere. Love that! I love mango sticky rice and when I saw that on the menu, I had to try it! Really liked it and now I want to go down the menu and try every flavor! Definitely check this place out! With the warmer weather now (or even if not warm), ice cream is always good! Brings me back to being a kid and getting ice cream cuz it was always a treat. Will be back!

Ube Pandesal Ice Cream & Double Chocolate Ice Cream We tried Ube Pandesal icecream and double chocolate ice cream. Both were delicious!!! Highly highly recommended. Also when you enter the store you are hit by a strong lovely delicious smell of butter... apparently it's from the pot pies of their sister store Pop pie co. Will definitely try it next time.

Amazing flavors. I don't like ice cream that much in general but I'd come back to this place because it's not just about original flavors but ones that taste really good too!

This place knows how to do vegan, gluten free, AND regular ice cream! The workers are so kind and so helpful, it's always a pleasure coming in. It's always clean and so cute/aesthetic in this restaurant!

Great ice cream and their vegan flavors are just as good as their standard flavors. I recommend trying a few samples before deciding as some flavors might surprise you!

Ube toffee pandesal is a unique flavor. I've often had ube icecream but never had a twist like this. I felt like the toffee pandesal gave the ube icecream a crunch.

Great service and cute merch!! We loved the guava cheesecake and ube combo. The texture is incredibly creamy. All the flavors are exactly what the name describes like Thai tea and mango sticky rice which I also enjoyed trying. Will definitely be back!

The creators of this place were born to make ice cream! I was very impressed with the unique and flavorful variations of ice cream! The service was great and I was so surprised with the taste, considering the vegan and gluten free options! I do not live in state but I will recommend this place to anyone visiting San Diego. The prices were super great for the portions! Most trendy places these days overcharge for tiny portions. So thank you for the great deal! I would definitely recommend the strawberry oats and chocolate as a split scoop!

If you're looking for unique flavors and a cute experience, I certainly recommend trying Stella Jean's Point Loma. The mango sticky rice flavor truly has my heart, as well as the ube flavor. It's worth hitting this place up to check out once. Additionally, you're allowed to sample the flavors, which is quite helpful! Stella Jeans frequently rotates their flavors, so follow their Instagram for updates. One thing to note about this place is that it has gotten quite expensive. I believe they must have raised their prices recently (along with many other places as well). But this is just something you should know before you go. Their waffle cones are now costing $2.75 extra and a double scoop is about $8. I wish they gave you more ice cream considering these costs. Just good to know before you go!
