SOMISOMI

Somisomi is a great spot in a busy Mira Mesa strip mall, known for its smooth soft serve and warm, chewy taiyaki (fish-shaped waffle). We spent $15 for five flavor-filled taiyaki (Nutella, custard, and sesame) and a cup of their beautiful purple and green ube/matcha soft serve. The taiyaki had a thin, crisp outer crunch and moist inner dough, while the tall swirl of soft serve was smooth and creamy. The service is friendly and efficient, and they keep the line moving. Note that while there's plenty of free parking, the entire mall is very popular and often busy. A highly recommended, semi-sweet treat for family and friends!

I’m reviewing the location, not the ice cream itself. I’m giving it 3 stars because the ice cream is great. However, this location serves significantly smaller portions and offers fewer amount of adds-on compared to other locations in San Diego. The store was not clean, the glasses are usually dirty, and the staff’s attitude felt dismissive. Overall, the product is good, but the experience at this location needs improvement.

Absolute favorite icecream in San Diego hands down! Can have this any number of time, especially when I do not even have a sweet tooth..says A lotttt!

I’ve been going here for about 3-5 years maybe, I’m not as sure but my experience is great. They added new flavors on the soft serve, and taiyaki. I love the new combo flavors every week! (I think) It is a great after work snack and affordable price. It’s very quiet inside and some standing tables. I wouldn’t really recommend eating inside, because there’s no chairs, but the food is great. Toppings are optional too.

What an adorable idea...little fish waffle to go on top of your ice cream. Wish there was one back on the east coast where we are.

Love their matcha soft serve. Wish the dairy was hormone/ antibiotic free- we’d go more often! My son loves the adzuki or red bean taiyaki and I like the ube one.

Liked the waffle, however not a big fan of its's icecream. No textures in icecream
