Ghirardelli Ice Cream Chocolate Shop

Yummy! very clean, great service and great hot fudge Sunday. My friend left her purse and they picked her up and saved her for the next few days. Simple wide walkway for strollers, wheel chairs etc. Fun family home

This place has a great atmosphere and a beautiful service. The menu has many items and chocolate fed the walls and branches. I ordered a 1000 calories medium size chocolate lovers shake with whipped cream (picked) at today's price of $9.95. It was sooo rich and flattered. Very delicious! My only regret is that I had ordered a smaller size. I couldn't finish half of it and I'll try to save the rest later.

I have a parasol and was quite dissatisfied. I have the strawberry hot fudge sunshade. The strawberry topping was frozen strawberries. It was only strawberry water sitting on the ice with hardly strawberry taste. I've come here before and it's never been like that, but that was my first time since the pandemic has changed so clearly.

So we went to the Gaslamp District San Diego for dinner and dessert. We chose this place because of the reputation of Ghirardelli for our dessert, which has proven to be a mistake. After we had paid $28 for two Sundaes, we thought it would be nice to sit outside on the fenced-in place in the area of Sidewalk tables and watch people go by. We didn't expect a homeless person who smokes a cigarette to sit at the table as you went out and harassed the customers by asking them if they bought food for me. We ignored this guy and picked a table to sit. Another homeless went to the fenced area and asked us if we had a replacement to which we said no. Then he continued to dig food through the garbage can in the fenced area. The first homeless ended his cigarette and tipped the ass into the widow of the ice shop and ran everywhere. We decided that it was time to leave our semi-finished sunflowers on the table. And the sunflowers weren't even so good. It is known that it is a problem of San Diego with the homeless. They would think that a company with as much money as Ghirardelli would hire security to protect their customers and keep beggars from mistakes of their customers. I would not recommend that someone visit this place for their own safety. And as already mentioned, the Sundaes were really not worth the money that was paid, or the merging of dealing with homeless people that harass you.

Had a single scoop of chocolate with a cake cone. Ice cream was good but for the price I paid I would have liked a fresh cone.
