50 Best Ice Cream Shops in Miami

“La Gelato au rhum est délicieuse 🤤 ! En fait, toutes les saveurs sont délicieuses.“

“Great ice cream. Friendly staff. Free tasting“

“Emmy is amazing! In a world like ours where customers service often times feel like a thing of the past, she is a ray of sunshine. She greeted me when I walked in with the most genuine smile. She was very nice and polite from the moment I walked inside to the moment I left. She is a natural treasure!“

“Really neat little place, friendly people, delicious treats!“

“We tried ice cream from this truck and was great, specially the hazelnut flavor. Staff was friendly and considerate. This is inside a shared space with several other shops including El Turco. This place has paid street parking and sometimes can be hard to find.“

“I have ordered from here once in the last week and the coconut coffee had to be the best coffee I’ve had in a really long time. I went 3 days thinking about this coffee, when I mean this is life changing coffee. The color, the marketing, I am obsessed.“

“Amazing for sweet lovers, but highly addictive! 🍦🔥

Cold Stone is hands down one of the best ice cream shops out there. The prices are totally reasonable considering the quality you get, and the flavor options are incredible. If you have a sweet tooth, this is absolute paradise! Just a friendly heads-up: it gets seriously addictive, so watch out for those extra pounds at the end of the month! That being said, while the ice cream is top-tier, I have to be honest and say this specific location isn't among my personal favorite spots of the franchise. Still, definitely worth a visit if you need a sugar rush!“

“Franco was super sweet and attentive the second we walked into the store. He made sure to make us feel comfortable about trying all the ice creams we were interested in and also introduced us to new flavors. Super quick service, very good ice cream, and a clean store.“

“Great paletas !!! Lots of flavors“

“The ice cream is very very delicious would come Again if I was down here very very respectful and polite customer service. Gives samples before you buy. Highly recommend“

“The best ice cream ever!!!!“

“Abuela María is my favorite. Will visit more often now that they are open..“

“I don't visit that often. But when I do, you are always welcomed, they give you much needed information about the ice cream that you are looking at.Let you know the prices and the sale that they may have at the time.So, yes, I don't have any disappointments when I go into this establishment“

“delicioso helado para adultos, el local, muy bueno.“

“Delicious and so friendly!“

“This place was delicious with an INSANE variety of toppings! We were visiting from out of town and stopped in for a treat and was very pleasantly surprised! The staff was amazing and they even had arcade games in the back!! Worth the trip in!“

“Great experience! The staff was extremely friendly and welcoming. They even asked what flavors I like and gave me three samples to try before I decided. I ended up getting the Cookies & Cream milkshake, and it was delicious. Excellent customer service and a great atmosphere. I’ll definitely be coming back!“

“I recently had the chocolate ice cream with the waffle. Great serving portion. Fast service. Friendly staff.“

“Very good place to enjoy a delicious ice cream and have a good time with your children.“

“Finally had the chance to visit the Ventanita! Drove up from Homestead for a pint of the Pistachio ice cream. Absolutely delicious! Well worth the drive, and the wait at the window.“

“Absolutely love this chill-in and definitely come by here way too often. There has definitely been some days where the order comes out a little wrong, and I normally don’t say something, but this one night I was with my friend and we both have two different, but similar orders. The main difference is my friend orders, oat milk, while I order regular milk. Unfortunately, I am allergic to oats, and when we received our ice creams, I immediately noticed that the young girl mixed them up. In this one case, I decided to go back in and ask for them to be redone. The other girl in the store was really kind and willing to make us the new batch, however, the one that made the mistake was not very happy. I noticed rude faces and snarky comments from her only. The one other girl was very kind and willing to make it work for us, but I was very uncomfortable and felt very unwelcome by the other girl with curly hair and glasses. I will likely be coming back of course, I just hope that This can be talked about within the team. P.s this is the only time I’ve ever felt the need to leave a review for this place. Everyone of the other workers are so kind and willing to make some good ice cream.“

“A week ago I went to this store looking for a last minute cake for my Son’s Birthday. There were no more cakes in the size I needed and I didn’t have time to go elsewhere. KAREN saw my frustration and immediately went out of her way and was able to find me 1 in the freezer but needed to be decorated.
She stopped what she was doing and started to mix color blue to decorate my ? thanks to her I was able to arrived on time with my sons cake. You don’t find people like her anymore
She went out of her way, Excellent Customer Service!!!!“

“So Good 😊, premium ice cream“

“Took my daughter to Florida for her birthday and came across this place“

“The best gelato in the 🌎 🥰“

“Best mexican paletas in Miami. I always stop here when in town. They have a huge selection of paletas. I don't buy anything else other than the paletas. The family that runs it are so sweet and polite. FYI cash only so come prepared. The price is reasonable too.“

“Really good boba and waffles. It's super cute. To get there, go to the Jack & Hill Place. You'll think it'll just have an Italian restaurant but it has multiple restaurants in one building with three floors. It took me a while to find Puffles but it was worth it!“

“we love it the Milk Shakes are great 🙏💖☺😋🤤“

“They did a great job providing for our event. Setup was so cute and everyone LOVED the popsicles. We got the mini ones and it was great cause guests tried different flavors and ate them all up

Dietary restrictions: Was a great option for people with dairy, gluten & nut allergies cause they came individually wrapped and so it was all clear“

“Many was so hospitable & kind! I always try to find the perfect Mocha Latte especially since I use Oat Milk, and I finally found the perfect balance of cafe to sweet + flavor & consistency. Thank you Jany for being so amazing, perfect start to my day 🫶🙏“

“Went here last night with my friend. She was very excited as she is only sporadically permitted out of the mental institution. We had been previously disappointed by the establishments on both Miller Dr and Kendall Dr. Massi and Gaby were amazingly gracious hosts (hostesses?) and ambassadors for Carvel. These sweet, always professional, budding supermodels indulged my overstimulated companion with every courtesy and their conversation was candid, enlightening and beyond pleasant. It was less than an hour before close. All three soft serve machines were up and running with six flavors (four seasonal/specialty including a must try toasted marshmallow). They weren't out of anything, including various toppings. These were all issues at the other venues, in the middle of the day, no less. The entire store was spotless including the restroom. Why these incredible young women aren't featured in Carvel advertising is most certainly beyond the cerebral processes of this old coot. Ladies, thank you again. You provided the perfect ending to an already wonderful evening.“

“Very cool way of making ice cream. Person working gave some great recommendations.“

“Clean and very nice friendly service as I I highly recommend it!!!🙂👍👍“

“El Indio just opened in Jonesville and we finally got to check it out with friends, easily one of the best decisions we made all week. The vibes were perfect, the service was on point, and the food… man, absolutely delicious. Real, authentic Mexican flavor in every bite. If you haven’t been yet, add it to your list. Jonesville needed this one. 🌮🔥“

“Si eres amante al helado definitivamente este es el lugar para ti !!!“

“I recommend that place for the family .nice place ,they have variety of food,we tried the pizza and the panini was delicious. My kids tried the rolled ice cream ,everyday now they asking me to go there !“

“The best churro una Groceria de delicioso 😋“

“Gasssssss - gelato so good I am still thinking about it. I was in the area traveling with family and after a long day out in sun exploring Wynwood walls I got ice cream for my little brother and I. I don't remember the specific flavor I got I think it was cookies and cream with fudge and my brother got a fruity mango flavored that is specialized for the World Cup. We did 1 scoop in a cup which was enough for us and the gelato was SOOOO GOOD. Although my cup was $8, the way I am still thinking about it - it might be worth it.

The shop is super cute. My parents sat along the back wall while we got our food and the servers were helpful inn letting us try the different flavors before buying.

I would come back 100%.“

“I had a great experience at Cold Stone Creamery! The ice cream was super fresh and creamy, and I loved how you can customize everything with your favorite mix-ins. The staff was friendly, patient, and made the whole process fun to watch. The portions were generous, and the place was clean and welcoming. Definitely a perfect spot when you’re craving something sweet — I’ll be coming back for sure!“

“Omgoodness!!! I love this place! It was my first time there and I will 1000% be back! Ice cream is so good and the food looks amazing! I went back to the window twice for ice cream lol such a great splurge x2. Marlins are back and this is going to be my stop before tha games!“

“Tried the vegan, lemon gelato popsicle at Fairchild Tropical Botanic Garden today & now I need to stock my freezer!! So refreshing. Just the right tartness.“

“We have tried most of their paletas and each one tastes better the previous. They have unique flavor combinations that will have you wanting to try them all! we must warn you: they are addictive! You've been warned. 🤤“

“Their classic sugar cookie is sooo good!“

“🫶🏻EVERYTHING GREAT WITH ALEXIS ON THIS BEAUTIFUL FRIDAY. FIRST TIME HERE. GREAT MUSIC! Environment very cozy and welcoming. Can believe they been here for 4 years and did not know about this place 🙉 xoxo🤟🏻“

“We had a great experience at Dairy Queen. The customer service was excellent from the moment we walked in. The staff was friendly, welcoming, and patient, making sure our order was correct and prepared quickly. The restaurant was clean, the ice cream was fresh, and our treats were delicious. It’s always nice to visit a place where the employees genuinely care about providing great service.“

“This is hands down the best ice cream shop around! The flavors are so unique and absolutely incredible, especially the craboo (nance) and soursop ice cream paired with choco banana. It’s easily some of the best ice cream I’ve ever had, truly rivaling what I’ve tasted in Belize.

Everything was fresh, flavorful, and perfectly balanced. You can tell there’s so much care put into each scoop. If you’re looking for something beyond the typical ice cream experience, this place is a must-visit!“

“This Carvel location has exceeded my expectations for over 50 years! I first came here as a kid, and now as a senior, I still love the ice cream just as much. I also had the privilege of knowing the parents of the young man who runs the store today, and I can truly say the tradition continues. Everything in this place is still made with one main ingredient—love!“
