There is no sitting area at this shop. We usually sit at the dinosaur fountain. Ice creams: 1-3 organic flavors of ice cream available (with an increased cost). 3-5 dairy free flavors, including sorbets. They use grass fed cow milk/cream. I think they could get away with using less sugar in their recipes (but I also feel that way about most desserts in general).

First off, the ice cream is expensive, service was fast but at what cost. The ice cream tasted like it had freezer burn but why wouldnβt it when the freezer keeping the ice cream cool looks like this. Buckets of ice cream have a layer of ice on them as if they arenβt touched (white layer). If I could give a 0/5 I would. Please defrost your freezers, maybe itβll actually allow your ice cream to taste good.

Very good ice cream with lots of flavor selections. We stopped in after dinner and it was cooler outside so we didnβt have a line. π They had several interesting flavors and I tried banana salted caramel on a waffle cone. Very tasty indeed.

This was my second visit since they took over the location from Somi Somi. The ice cream was delicious. I especially enjoyed the matcha flavour. I'm glad I got the waffle cup as it was warm outside. I wish this location offered more seating than the 4 stools outside. It's hard to find a place in the shade to enjoy the ice cream before it melts in the sun, so you're left trying to eating it up super fast instead of enjoying it slowly.

If I could give zero stars, I would. It's the worst customer service I've ever received in the US. I found a fly (bugπ€’) in my ice cream!! GROSS!!! and the person working at the store was completely untrained. They didn't offer me a single solution to the problem, they blocked my card because they swiped it more times than allowed, they told me they couldn't give me a refund, so I asked them for cash and she said she couldn't do anything. She just offered me more ice cream. How could I possibly eat more ice cream from a place where I found a fly that who knows where it laid its eggs? Also I dm them on Instagram asking for a solution, and they didn't respond either!!!
