It's so worth it! I got the Carmel fudge and pecan and it was epic.

Also, the staff is crazy nice, and the servings are very generous.

The spumoni ice cream was fantastic! A rare treat. Rainbow sherbet had 3 wonderful flavors that impressed my daughter. So many flavors, hope to come back soon.

I had pistachio ice cream. It really didn't taste very good. It was very chemical… very unpleasant

The staff was friendly, but the ice cream didn't live up to its reputation for me.

Marianne's serves up some good ice cream with many flavor options. I'm guessing the ice cream is a premium 14% butterfat - so fairly creamy. Where it excels for me is in the mix-ins - my two flavors had lots of good mix-ins that were very satisfying. The flavors I tried had good flavor and the portion was decent. The building is quite old and the color changing lights above our table were annoying, but the old building also adds to a classic parlor feel. I intend to go again next time I visit my brother in town.
