Easily some of the best ice cream that I have ever had. Salt & Straw is originally from Portland but was my go-to ice cream spot in San Diego before relocating to LA in Jan 2020. They have locations all over the state but are usually in newer malls and the nicer parts of town. This location is also new and designed well. It’s large on the inside so it can accommodate at least a dozen people in line, if not more. It’s part of The Culver Steps in Culver City where Erewhon is located. They have a giant multiple story parking garage beneath the ground floor so parking is super easy and plentiful. Service is also very fast, most people know what they want here, but occasionally you will have to deal with groups asking for many samples before deciding (prob the same ppl that stair at never changing fast food menus taking forever to decide).
I am sad that they stopped offering the ice cream salt on top, because it really added to the flavor and was unique. I still am a fan though because the ice cream is just that good.

I stopped in specifically to try their limited edition cereal flavors this weekend and had to couple that with my fav flavor The Sea Salt with Caramel Ribbons.

Read moreThere's a reason this place is always packed! If you love premium ice cream and interesting flavors, this is the perfect spot for you! We enjoy being able to taste test flavors before settling on the scoops and pints we purchase. Over the years, I've visited several of Salt & Straw's locations and tried many of their unique flavors. They occasionally get ice cream that no one else would carry – such as Bone Broth and Lemon California Poppy. But they also carry all the classics – from salted caramel to pumpkin. Above all else, I'm happy to announce that Salt & Straw carries fantastic vegan flavors! Unlike other luxury ice cream stores, they don't limit the vegan options to basic flavors, but instead get very creative with these non-dairy options. I always recommend S&S to my friends, and recommend it to...
