Ice cream was soooo good. Even while it was freezing out the employees didn't really care too much about your existence but it's still so good! I got the Brownie and my gf got the Lemon curd and both were delicious! Will be back!

We were visiting the area and looking for some ice cream. We found this after spending the day at the Santa Monica pier. It was easy to find and near the skate park at Venice Beach. Good location to watch the awesome skaters and view the gorgeous sunset.We ordered a vanilla shake for our son, and my husband and I shared a Nutella Dream. The service was great - the young woman at the window provided her recommendations and set expectations that it would be about 10 mins as I think the cone was made fresh.Overall, it was fine. It was pretty and Instagramable. It fulfilled the ice cream craving, and nothing is ever wrong with Nutella. I will say that given the price and the selling point is the cone, it was a bit overpriced as the cone was just ok for me. I think I wanted it to be a bit sweeter - almost a dessert that stood on its own since you can get to the bottom and only the cone is what is remaining. It was also pretty challenging to eat and got a little messy, but no points knocked for that. So, of course, I took a photo. Between my husband and I, we mostly finished it. Would I buy it again? Hmm... maybe not.

Perfect for a beach day! The base is all Vanilla Gelato but the toppings are all so fun and different. The portion size is quite big so one can definitely be shared by two people! I felt that the gelato that comes in the chimney cake melts slower than the cup, but that might've been just our experience!

I visited Turn Dough in February and was thoroughly impressed by their commitment to freshness and quality. I had the pleasure of trying the S'mores chimney cake cone and it was a taste sensation! The generous spread of Nutella paired with the creamy vanilla bean soft serve created a perfect harmony of flavors. The torched giant Marshmallow added a delightful twist, and the crushed Graham Crackers and drizzles of Chocolate and Caramel sauces took it to another level of indulgence. I also had their Matcha Milkshake, and it was an absolute delight! It's topped with velvety whipped cream and two pieces of Matcha Kit Kat, every sip was a true indulgence for matcha enthusiasts like myself, as well as newcomers to the matcha scene. Highly recommended! A must-visit for anyone craving delicious, conscientiously crafted desserts!

13 bucks is expensive! The dough is thick, it's hot, so it melts the ice cream fast, and it's hard to eat. But it's sweet and delicious!

I am always looking for a yummy soft serve. Turn Dough was beyond that and more. I had the soft serve with pistachio and honey inside a churro cone. It was soooo good, but a big portion for more than I can handle. I suggest sharing it with someone. My son had the Strawberry shake which he of course raved about. It was a nice treat to end the evening walk at Venice Beach. It's a stall on the strand so if you're out walking, this would be a nice treat to have. Keep in mind that it is on the strand so you will have to pay for parking around the corner or at any of the parking lots near by. The service was on point. Thank you D for your kind hospitality and being patient as we looked through the menu. Thank you also for the recommendation.

ICE CREAM, you scream, we all scream for chimney cake ice cream! Finally hopped on this chimney cake trend, and it's 100% the cone for me when it comes to my ice cream. With buttery, soft and chewy layers encrusted in sugar crystals that remind me of a super pillowy donut, these chimney cake cones are the perfect decadent addition to your soft serve or gelato. You can find this scrumptious, freshly made Czech dessert speciality (as well as ice cream, gelatos and shakes) at @turndough , the first chimney cake shop in LA! I've probably walked by this little hidden gem of an ice cream shop a million times on Santa Monica/Venice boardwalk, and I would highly recommend stopping by on a hot day to get a refreshing sweet treat that is lovingly made fresh to order!

The Coconut Rafaelo milkshake was pretty bland and nothing special. Not worth $12.
Amazing service! First time going and she explained the menu perfectly to me and was able to answer any of my questions even if they were silly. The cone is soooo soft OMG it’s unbelievableParking: Valet is $15 for an hour, next time I would park by a bank or find a public parking lot because it was a quick run
Scooping up Happiness, One Flavor at a Time!Is there anything better on a hot and sunny day?This ice cream joint has some of the best chimneys you will ever have. They have such a wide variety that won’t help you if you’re indecisive.

We had the best time! We knew the Hollywood location but when I saw them at Venice we had to try it! As always, it was delicious! We got the Nutella, Raffaelo and Bday Cake, that by the way was the best. It comes with a candle and they give you matches. That was funny! Found tables close by. We had a yummy time.

Hello everyone ? During hot days I decided to make a cheat meal with my lady. We took ice cream cone brownie. You can expect big portion of ice cream, a lot of toppings and good stuff inside and best of all was HOT cone. That was a bomb. We took also a shake banana ? nutella crispearls. I know that was a lot of calories but trust me, it’s worth to make that sin ? They have lot of different sweets and treats so everyone will find something special. Place looks clean and service was good. Definitely recommend and will return for sure.

So bright! It's hard to miss! I was craving soft serve while skating on the beach trail and this place caught my eye. It's a big pop of color with a side seating area. The portions here are pretty large, I was barely able to finish my ice cream even though I ordered the smallest thing on the menu. I had so many questions about how I was able to customize my order. The lady on the cash register was very kind and patient answering all my questions. I got soft serve in a cup with recess pieces. So milky and creamy, definitely hit the spot!
