Los Alpes Ice Cream Parlor

Los Alpes has the best raspados! Man, I love this place. This is an Original ice cream parlor — Guadalajara style. Los Alpes was the place where my mom would take us as a reward back in 1988 — 1995. I moved away, came back to L.A. and was craving raspados from Los Alpes. I wondered if it was still around or taken over by some Coldstone place, and lucky for us all, it is still there! After 21 years, I came back to that delicious flavor, and it was just like I was 8 years old all over again! With nostalgia and joy flowing through me, I savored every morsel of that icey treat!
P. S. — Fair and reasonable prices

I was completely overwhelmed with the options so I got one of each. Totally worth it. :)
My BB and I love this place and will recommend it to our family and friends.
Also, I found this place via Tastemade — Local flight episode. Great shout out to LA.

Great customer service and the bionicos and raspados are the bomb!!! Authentic Mexican raspados for sure!

Wow, i have to say im impressed with this small ice cream shop not only do they have in various amount of different flavors that you won’t normally find in a regular ice cream parlor, but the hospitality is great and the prices are fair. I recommend you to stop by and get some of this ice cream then go walking on Pacific Boulevard to do some shopping

Good service, fresh product, loving it! Definitely coming back! Out of the ordinary…

Nice little parlor, ate some decent ice cream. They carry alot more frozen desert items. Good place to take the family for a treat out after dinner.

Sorry paletero man but I cannot buy your product when there is places like this one. Awesome tasting paletas. Las de leche are bomb. They have some crazy a$$ flavors though. Que de frijo y mole. I dont know about those. They have one like the chocolate abuelita. Really good. My son loves hot chocolate so he really enjoyed this one. Perfect spot for this hot weather.

Everything here is delicious, been coming since teenager years. Support mom and pop stores, service is great and people real nice. I got the paleta de frijol because I was curious on the taste, it was amazing. Not sure if they still have it but if they do try it. Has canela. Every flavor they have there is top notch. They also have stuffed churros with crema or chocolate or plain with cinnamon, dorilocos and other Loco style chips or churritos (can’t remember the exact name of them), specialty raspados, nachos, hot cheetos with nacho cheese, and more.

Best cheese ice cream ever. It might sound nasty but this cheese ice cream right here is the best I love this place. Childhood fav place. And dad is still bringing us!

Duuuude. Ice cream. Old school.
Good stuff. The cream ones are best, the ice ones, not so much. This is perfect for a hot day, and it was a nice day for a stroll.
Duuuude. Strolling.

So good.

I have been coming to Los Alpes for years, since 1979 to be exact. Parents brought us here and I still do, the paletas are the best and don’t forget the raspados! Large cirhuela with Lechera is the business! Gotta try it if you’ve never been, parking can be an issue but hey worth!

the owners of this ice cream shop have the craft down to an art. you won’t find another place like it in the vicinity. they make their own paletas (Mexican Popsicles) with flavors that are refreshing and unique. rum, violet flower and cream, avocado (yes avocado), and many many more. I also love the snow cones! This place will not disappoint especially on a hot day!

I love this place!!! Been coming here for 20+years, since i was a little girl. They have the best ice cream, raspados, ice cream paletas, obispos, and mangoniadas. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone. Introduced this place to my boyfriend and even he has to make a stop here whenever he is around.

Support mom and pop businesses that are not gentrification symptoms? Love new experiences? LOS ALPES is for you. This family biz has been making all natural popsicles (paletas) with recipes straight from Mexico since the late 1970s. They have home made ice cream too. They make it all in the back.
The popsicle are paletas, like the guys pushing the carts thru LA on hot days, they have the popular flavors of strawberry, coconut, lemon, lime and tamarindo… but they have a lot of other flavors. Rum and eggnog? Pistachio cream? Caramel? Bubble gum? Melon? Cactus? Bean? Corn? Avocado… really, you haven’t lived in LA until you have had an avocado paleta on a hot day. And then there are the paletas made with violet flower petals and cream. Do you like Mole sauce? How about a Mole Paleta?
But then there is the major league macho paletas. Mango con Chile. Seet and cool and fruity flavorful and then hey what the heck my tongue and throat are burning and it is intense and hot and I cannot take it and oh dear I must have another bite of that paleta and repeat the cycle.
There are amazing raspados and then a ton of junk food all in a no-​nonsense throwback storefront that you will miss if you blink.

I can remember coming here since I was a little girl, every thing still the same as it was back then although their menu has expanded to various exotic flavors like mole paletas, bean paletas even cheese to my surprise! I must say I’m not adventurous enough to give them a try but the customers rave about them. i love their cirguela and tamarindo raspados, now they even put chamoy on them! Yum. this will always be my fave ice cream place

If you don’t know what your looking for you’ll totally miss this place driving by, but let me tell ya it’s worth your while to find it and try it out! I take my kid here every once in a while and he loves it! I tried the strawberry paleta lasst time and it was very creamy and yummy. This place may not look like much but it’s a great local spot and a great place for kids

This place is heaven on earth. I’ve been coming here since I can remember. They have the best raspados anywhere, hands down. I can’t get them anywhere else because other places can’t beat the taste of these.
I actually hadn’t been here since I was a teenager (?) and then I went as an adult and it was exactly how I remembered it. The smell of the shop, the deliciousness of the raspados, everything. Love this place.

As I wirte this review, I’m 25 years young.
I remember I used to come here as a kid needing to tip-​toe to be able to see the display case.
So today I walked in feeling like nothing has changed here.
I remember seeing the newspaper cut outs of some lady I never saw with all these ninja karate belts on a wall. Some pictures of nachos that have been there forever.
The ice cream and paletas are always so appetizing and I was tempted at getting one, but this place stepped its game up. They now have ‘Signature’ ice cream concoctions.
I got a ‘Mangoneada.’ Which boils down to spicy mango ice cream. I saw a bunch of other things that made me wanna come back and try other things on the menu.
I wasn’t a fan of it (Mangoneadas) at first and cursed my friend for telling me how amazing they were but after I was done I wanted like 5 more.
This place is amazing and has that ‘Neighborhood Ice Cream’ parlor feel to it.
Just be warned, parking is always horrible. You’re sharing parking with a church across the street and home-​owners.

A staple of the city of Huntington Park. Family owned and operated they make their own ice cream, paletas and rapados. (Paletas are either milk and fruit based popsicles or water and fruit popsicles. raspados are like ice cones with real fruit instead of that processed candy coloring)
Everything is made with REAL fruit. Try their rose pedal paletas… They’re awesome… Another great paleta is cucumber and powdered chili…
Parking is street only so be ready to park a bit far but it’s totally worth it…
CASH ONLY.
