Gjusta is a Venice favorite with a spacious garden-style patio that makes a lovely setting for a casual dessert date. Pick out something sweet from the counter and find a spot outside to enjoy it together. With its greenery and relaxed atmosphere, the patio is just as much of a draw as the food, making it an easy place to spend an afternoon.

Salt & Straw

Salt & Straw serves farm-to-cone ice cream at its scoop shop on Abbot Kinney Boulevard in Venice. The shop's Abbot Kinney page lists a monthly menu series, dairy-free flavors, Tacolates and ice cream cakes. Pick a flavor each and trade spoonfuls.

Wanderlust Creamery brings flavors from around the world to Venice, with artisanal ice cream inspired by travel and global destinations. Located on Lincoln Boulevard, it's a fun spot for a casual dessert date, especially if you both enjoy trying something new. The menu rotates monthly with creative new flavors and returning favorites, giving you a reason to come back for another scoop together.

I recently moved to SF and heard about Known from some friends. Instantly, I knew it was a high quality platform. The design is beautiful and app is extremely intuitive to navigate. Known cares about creating deep relationships that go beyond the surface level. Also, their matchmaking process is prompt and legitimate. They do a great job with that! I am looking forward to seeing how they scale over time, all my friends from the East Coast are dying to join!
