Read moreJust went here for the first time, and it's safe to say it'll be the first of many... Here's the scoop (yeah, I know): TLDR Version: Get the shake. 4 scoops, pick 2+2.
Lots of flavors including 3 dairy free vegan and 2 sugar free. 30+ full tilt, sugary, creamy and nicely varied choices. You'll not get a full description of the flavors until you're on site, but you won't be disappointed. If anything, it's paralyzing having so many choices. You'll order from a friendly teenager who will give you a simple paper ticket. They'll go make your order while you pay. Leave a tip in cash or on your card. They're well staffed and the (long) line moves fast as a result. All the normal stuff you'd expect at a traditional ice cream shop with cones, dishes, edible bowls, etc rounding out the mix of shakes, floats, blizzards (hurricanes here) and sundaes. Prices aren't bad at all and they encourage going larger and splitting with the $7/8/9 type distribution. That's it for now. My...
Read moreHandel's has finally arrived to Irvine Spectrum! What a lovely treat to grab with friends. The icecream standard is maintained as with all other Handel's Icecream places I've been too (San Diego, Jamboree Rd). There's a slight noticeable difference in serving size depending on which location you go to - but I think it just depends on the people who work there hahaha. There's a line, as expected, but the line goes by reasonably fast as there are at least three workers manning the stations.
We got the four scoop sampler - well priced at $7 to try 4 different flavors!
Our favorite flavors *sorbet - light, fruity, and fresh *mint chocolate chip - crunchy chocolate chips *green tea - the flavor is not diluted
You can take your icecream outside, walk around Irvine Spectrum, and enjoy the wonderful blessings! Because of the location in an open plaza the ambiance is bright and spacious. God...
