Fantastic ice cream! The flavors are made with real ingredients, rather than just flavoring/extract. You can really taste the difference. My husband and I both got three kiddy scoops so that we could have three different flavors. I had the salted peanut butter, chocolate and salted Carmel. My hubby had Lemmon poppyseed, mount mint and salted caramel. The chocolate could have been a little darker, but thats just preference: it was still quite delicious. All the other flavors were perfection. We loved it!!!

Amazing. Hand made, full bodied flavorful ice cream. So many unique flavors, each one a hit. This ice cream is my new favorite. We were fortunate to beat the rush so we could sample a few flavors, Indian Pudding, Cookie Dough, a Chocolate ice cream mixed with Dulce de Leche (which was to die for!) and the Cinnamon Cardamom. Friendly staff too. We are definitely going to make this our new ice cream spot.

Awesome, hand made ice cream served fresh daily! The selection is excellent, with diverse, unique flavours. There is only street parking, and only space for about 5 people to sit at a bar. The spot is small, but the taste is huge! Pro tip - the ice cream is sometimes still too hard to be distributed when they open. If so, just come back in a bit and itll be ready!

Absolutely amazing ice cream and sorbet! They have classic flavors and many youve never even dreamt of like Mango Jicama Habanero sorbet, Sherry Catalana ice cream, Blackberry Coriander Streusel, and so much more. Generous, as well. The single is actually two scoops and goes up from there. Well worth the visit if youre in town.

Solid ice cream, creative flavors (favorite this visit was the coriander blackberry). Excellent friendly service. And Im glad they have a "flight" option for indecisive people like myself, normally I have to pay too much and get too much ice cream just to get a bit of everything and this was a much better system.

The ice cream was delicious, fresh and with really original flavors that were a pleasure to try. I especially liked the Butterscotch Miso, which was, as promised, a fresh take on salted caramel. Also, they were really nice even though we came in a minute before closing.

Awesome ice cream and sorbet with unique flavor options and toppings. Friendly staff. Non dairy options. No restroom. Limited space inside - can get cramped at prime time. Prepare to fight.

Out of this world good! I had sea salt caramel and cinnamon cardamom, and my bf had blueberry sour cream and apple honey. Surprisingly good, and we consider ourselves ice cream snobs!

Amazing flavors. Pretty little storefront and super friendly service. You can get 2 flavors on a small co e which is the way to go since youll want to try them all.

Fantastic flavors. Be cautious of the sizes. 3 scoops looks like a pint.
