"Specializing in Persian ice cream, Mashti Malone’s has been kickin’ it for a quarter of a century. Rosewater Saffron with Pistachio Mashti. I don’t usually like floral desserts or rose anything, but I was definitely feelin’ this."

Louisa Shafia

"On my first day here, my cousin Reyhanak (which means little basil in Farsi) told me about Mashti Malone’s, a place that she sometimes drives forty-five minutes to in order to satisfy a craving for freshly made Persian ice cream. We went the very next day, and I got a cone of Rosewater Saffron with Pistachios, a bright yellow ice cream studded with green pistachios. Yum!"

Javier Cabral

"Persian-style ice cream and sorbets are eternal. At least that's what it seems like when you are sitting at one of the tables in Mashti Malone's in Hollywood, leisurely licking the lemon juice and sour cherry syrup off your fat scoop of saffron ice cream topped with icy faloodeh."

Bianca Prum

"Farsi will practically roll off your tongue by the time you finish slurping up all of the super-authentic -- and super-delicious -- ice creams at this tiny Persian dessertery. Don't be boring -- skip the vanilla and choose from flavors like rose water, orange blossom, and lavender, which all taste even better when presented in a "Mashti", an exotic ice cream sandwich made with delicate wafers and rolled in pistachios."

Shuna Lydon

"Rosewater falooda (here this is a sorbet with rice flour noodles), honey-saffron-rose & pistachio ice cream, and rosewater ice cream. Divine."

Liana Aghajanian

"Mashti Malone’s faloodeh is the stuff of dreams, not to mention the other delectable Persian treats they specialize in."
