Saffron & Rose Ice Cream, Los Angeles CA

Worth driving for 35 minutes to Westwood for this! Get the mix 1 scoop Faloodeh and 2 scoops of teh Saffron Pistachio Ice Cream and you’ll taste heaven in your mouth! I’ve been going to this place for the longest time and I’d highly recommend it.

Interesting flavors (since I’m not familiar with the tastes, I can’t really tell the difference between saffron & white rose if I close my eyes)

-& very crowded when we were there

We had their saffron and pistachio ice cream at a friend's house yesterday and I happened to be in the area today. I tasted 4 flavors and ended up getting 5 pints to go. Very unique flavors. Great service.

Outrageously good ice cream, one of my all time favorites for sure. Insanely good texture, amazing flavors and perfect sweetness. A heaven sent for ice cream lovers.

The storefront itself is super cute! Seating both inside and outside the shop. The staff were friendly and very helpful. Fred was assisting us and we just couldn’t decide which flavors to chose, they all looked so good! We told him what we like and he chose out the flavors for us.

I had Taro, Coconut and Pistachio. It was honestly the BEST ice cream that I’ve ever had. I loved all three of them, especially the chunks of fresh coconut and pistachios pieces. The quality is truly unmatched.

They have so many fun flavor options that are absolutely delicious! They had 10+ flavors including vegan options and clearly marked items that have gluten.

I highly recommend Saffron and Rose to everyone, I will definitely revisit often.

Pictured is my half eaten ice cream, I was so excited I forgot to take a photo first! Behind it is my boyfriends Ice cream. && The pints we brought home:)

This is where I first tried the Bastani (saffron and rose water flavored ice cream). It's likely one of their best flavors. The date ice cream is very good too. And so is the orange blossom one.

The main reason I give them 4 stars though, is that they're super close to Bloomfield, which in my opinion sells even better Persian ice cream. Theirs tend to be fattier and less sweet, which I think is how most ice cream should be.

I do recommend Saffron & Rose, but if you find yourselves waiting in line, would actually suggest walking over to Bloomfield on the next block and giving their ice cream a shot.

Crazy delicious! Saffron pistachio Dark chocolate, Cucumber, Passionfruit, White Rose, Orange Blossom were our choices. Just stunningly gorgeous truly

The best ice cream in the universe— besides Wanderlust creamery of course. I am obsessed with the green tea ice cream. Reasonably priced, honestly getting a deal for how delicious it is.

This is some of the best ice cream you'll ever try, no question about it. My two favorite flavors are going to be the White Rose and then the Saffron. I didn't try the chocolate Nutella, but my sister was crazy about it.

The only down side to all of this is because of how good the ice cream is, there is always a line and you run out of places to sit fast. I've been to this place plenty of times since I was a kid and when ever we sat down to eat, I'd look down to eat my ice cream knowing that there were maybe 3 people in line, two bites later I look up to see at least 9 or 10 people in line leading outside the store. This ice cream is that crazy good and is always worth it.

Final note worthy mentions, the ice cream melts a little fast, so you better eat it right away. Also they sell their signature flavors in tubs to stick in your freezer. Haven't tried that, but I'm always thinking to myself "I should just get the darn thing so I don't have to keep driving up there for some good ice cream. "

AMAZING ICE CREAM, MUST TRY!

Their ice cream were good. They have flavors that are extraordinary for this part of the world. They have a lot of flowery flavors added like lavender, rose or spices like saffron. Ice creams are a bit sweet for my liking but flavorful. Its a delight to try the flavors they offer.

Hands down my fav ice cream in LA. My fav combo is saffron + chocolate. They need bigger menus displayed outside so people can see their options while waiting in line. Currently no one can go in due to covid so there is a long line outside (cuz, duh—they are the best!)

Ice cream was delicious, original, and affordable. The guys running the shop were nice too. Will definitely be returning and telling friends and family visiting the area.

Wow, such a cool spot on Westwood Blvd. My wife and I got to hear from Freddy about his grandfathers passion for quality ice cream, and try the fan favorite saffron ice cream with pistachio. SO GOOD, highly recommend.

A must try spot, there are a variety of unique flavors (i.e. White Rose) which are definitely worth a try. If you let the ice cream melt a bit before indulging, you'll find it has a texture you've never before tasted.

Wow. Truly a memorable first experience at this delight. Amazingly unique for an ice cream parlor because of its diverse Persian culture that takes eating the dessert to another level. The flavors were charming to read and enticing to taste. I took a go with Orange Blossom and Passion Fruit; delicious. But it doesn't stop there. The lemon juice they provide elevates the flavors of both the creamy sweetness and the blissfully sour delicacy. Also, ask for some wafers. You won't regret it!

Flavors are unique and interesting, but the ice cream is absurdly sweet - even by American standards. Not to mention the texture was not very creamy, rather icy instead.

Prices are fair and portions are relatively large, although good luck trying to finish it given how sweet it is.

There’s usually a long line (especially during peak hours like weekend evenings), but the line tends to move relatively quickly. Plus, the saffron ice cream with pistachios is worth the wait! It’s incredibly sweet (but not overpowering) and creamy. I highly recommend giving Persian ice cream a try if you’ve never had it before.

Truly a one of a kind place. Great unique flavors such as saffron, white rose and orange blossom. Really delicate and delicious.
