My girlfriend had been bugging me about feeding her ice cream for months. Its somewhat rare we get ice cream because weve been on a healthy binge these days. When we heard San Antonio had a Ghirardelli Ice Cream shop, we literally planned a trip out from Houston for a cheat-meal weekend! Ghirardelli is located at the Shops at Rivercenter mall by the Riverwalk (beside Hooters). They have a lot of chocolate individually wrapped scattered throughout throughout the shop, and you can also order items from their menu at the counter. We heard their Sundaes are what to come for, so we went with the Treasure Island Warm Brownie Sundae for $11.95. This consisted of vanilla ice cream, a warmed Ghirardelli half and handmade hot fudge topped with whipped cream, diced almonds, and a cherry. This was a whopping 980 calories. Talk about an ultimate cheat meal. We decided to share it to cut down on our calories. Its surprising it had so many calories as it was only a small cup that could fit in one of my hands. As I scooped a piece of warm brownie and cold vanilla ice cream in my mouth, I was forced to close my eyes and let my emotions run free. I definitely food-gasmed at that very moment. It was magical, and Ill never forget it. Go experience this once in your life at least. "Ill have what hes having." Overlooking the menu, I saw an Earthquake Family Favorite which served four people. This one was made with eight scoops of ice cream with eight toppings and banana topped with whip cream, diced almonds, Ghirardelli Mini Dark Chocolate Chips and cherries for an astounding $39.95 and 3930 calories. Wow. If I wanted to commit suicide by dessert, I would definitely order this one. At least Id go out happy. Overall, this was a fun experience. The memories of mixing a warm Ghirardelli brownie with cold ice cream still gives me goosebumps thinking about it. Yeah, its super pricey and could probably kill you with all its calories, but do yourself a favor, and add this place to your bucket list of desserts to try. Youll thank me later.

Me encanta este lugar, los helados son deliciosos, el lugar muy agradable puedes comer adentro en las mesitas del local o afuera si tienes suerte y consigues alguna mesa desocupada! No es económico pero es accesible y vale la pena!!!

We came for dessert..hot fudge sundae..most delicious! The staff were friendly, and quick to get our order out. Easy access to the Riverwalk, so one can burn off those extra calories! For me, prices were a bit expensive...a bit over $11 for a sundae, which was average in size...it was delicious though!!

The best place for deserts and ice cream. We visited this place by chance while our tour to San Antonio and we loved every bit of it. The chocolates are expensive but its worth it. We had hot chocolate fudge and it was the best I ever had.

Paid 200% price on a two scoops ice cream. After asking if the price is same, lied about the price and only get refund after seeing the manager.

I have been to Girardelli in 2013 San Diego. Here you can get the best milkshakes and ice cream.
