Flavors are fresh and very tasty. Portions are reasonable. One of my favorites stops in Montecito.

Honestly. I have had a lot of ice cream in my young life. This place has to be in my top 10. Just wow speechless with the cream texture and great flavor. I was so impressed I actually came back right before I left town. Can't go wrong with any flavor.

We went to the Rori's in Montecito. It's a tiny place packed with personality. The servers were young and friendly and gave us tips on where to see a lovely sunset. We came during ice cream happy hour, so half price ice cream. The ice cream was delicious and a single is an extra large scoop. I got the flavor special for March which was Irish coffee & my hubby got Passionfruit. Both were really good. We can't wait to go back tomorrow!

Cute little ice cream shop with unique flavors! I got a mix of banana brown sugar and honey almond crunch!

I absolutely LOVE this little gem nestled in a cute shopping center. I love anything banana and just my luck, they serve Brown Sugar Banana and OMG... it's delish! What I really enjoy and love about Rori's is the richness and high quality ingredients. It's creamy and flavorful. It's really worth the splurge and I always feel satisfied after treating myself to Rori's. If you can't have dairy or have nut allergies, not to worry, they do serve non-dairy and no-nut options. It's best to ask first to be safe. Other flavors I've tried are the Honey Almond Crunch, Lemon Curd and Passion Fruit (vegan) and I've enjoyed them all. Staff is very friendly and shop is limited in space so you will find a line forming outside but not to worry, it moves fairly quickly. Plenty of outside seating and ample of parking spaces. I highly recommend and I can't wait for my next visit!

Looking for a side of attitude with your pricey "itty bitty" ice cream cone, costing over $5? Well, you've found the right spot! When I first moved to Carp, Rori's was a fairly new local business, owned by a friend of a friend, so naturally, we all wanted to support it. Over time, it has grown in popularity, and while the ice cream is still delicious, the prices have more than doubled. Unfortunately, the staff, especially at the Montecito location, often comes across as condescending and dismissive.

Quite literally some of the best ice cream I’ve ever had!Rori’s ice cream is unlike most around. It’s the perfect concept between true ice cream and creamy frozen yogurt, and the flavors here are incredibly good! I admit they have quite the high pricing, but with generous scoop sizes and kid-friendly proportions as choice, it’s a nice spot for the whole family! Really signature flavors not found at every other ice cream shop and the texture of their products is irresistibly good. So rich and so creamy!Best ice cream in Santa Barbara!

Pretty good ice cream place! It's in the market place so cute little area to walk around while eating it. The girl serving us was nice. The peanut butter chocolate candy swirl, Lemon curd and serious dark chocolate were all SO good! The NY Strawberry cheesecake was alright, not my favorite. We'd definitely go back if we're in the area again!

The malted milk ball iced cream is in the top 10% of ice cream I've eaten. In a sundae with honey hot fudge it was very good though I should have stuck with just the ice cream. It's expensive $10.50 fora sue but they also don't nickel and dime you; kid asked for an extra cup and they said no problem. The service is very good.
Lemon curd and dark chocolate, still thinking about it they even have some premade pints to go too

Solid local ice cream but flavors were a bit underwhelming. Banana was good, didn't love my Rori Garcia or malt. Get the sense this is the slot in Santa Barbara, but wanted a bit more.

Aww common' give this ice cream a go. If you can afford a $10 giant cone, its a winner. Go with the favorites! You will be satisfied and impressed.

A little spendy but the itty bitty size was still a decent sized scoop and the ice cream itself was delicious!! They do allow you to sample flavors before ordering too which is nice since they have such a good menu with unique flavors.
