It is impossible to give this place anything but 5 stars. There simply isn't anywhere else to get Italian ice. If you need that Italian ice itch scratched this is it. It's great. They have a billion flavors. Employees are nice. They're mostly young kids or students. It's a neighborhood spot. We gotta keep it alive.

I am originally from the Northeast and hadn't had a waterice in almost 18 years. It was definitely worth the wait! Thanks for feeding my nostalgia!
Vegetarian options: There is no meat in the waterice
Kid-friendliness: If your kids don't like this than you have failed as a parent

Unusual local ice cream shop because they serve custard, sorbet and ice products as well as ice cream. Custard is smoother and more tasty than regular ice cream.
Try the 2nd Street or The wookie cookies or the frozen custard cannoli.
A small unassuming location off of fruitvale with limited seating outside. It can be difficult to park on fruitvale, but there's a big parking lot for the businesses right behind the building if you go through the alley.

Are you open??
I had the frozen custard layered with Italian ice and it was delicious. Spending many days at the Jersey shore growing up I feel like I know frozen custard and this did not disappoint. Never had it with Italian before but I’m hooked. Friendly staff too. Wish it had more seating.
The nicest people serving up the tastiest treats.
Their frozen custard is super good! I haven’t tried anything else, but they have all kinds of frozen options that all looked delicious.
This is a neighborhood gem and we need to continue to support local businesses that help communities grow and stay strong. Major props and huge thank you to the owner and employees! #Oaklandstrong

Amazing flavors, helpful staff, a delightful experience. I'm so glad this business exists.
This is the best Italian ice place. That’s saying a lot because I’m from Trenton, NJ and I am no stranger to Philadelphia water ice. Their custard is the highest quality. They have such creative flavors and they don’t taste artificial. We come here more than I’d like to admit.
Cool local spot with great ice cream flavors, Italian ice, and frozen custard. You can combine them and they have sundaes or floats too
Italian ice and custard are amazing! Love having this close to my place
