Since it was my first visit, the staff took the time to explain the menu and share details about the offerings and the neighborhood. They provide both soft serve and vegan ice cream options. I chose the coconut soft serve in a matcha waffle cone, which was absolutely delicious! I can't wait to return for the ginger beer float—yes, you read that correctly! I plan to use the coconut ice cream for that as well.“

“Absolutely delicious strawberry ice cream i’m waffle cone 👌🏾“

“I think the size I order is considered a pint. I got butter pecan with extra, extra, extra pecans! The man who took my order was so kind and had the most pleasant smile. He was so considerate with asking how far did I have to travel and when I told him the distance, he wrapped my container of ice cream up nicely in Saran wrap and advised me to put it in the freezer as soon as I reached home. I should have left a tip, but I usually don’t leave tips for to go service. I will be back there again and if he’s there I will leave a tip, because of all the times I’ve ordered my ice cream, no one has gone above and beyond like he did. Thank you for your thoughtfulness!“

“Absolutely zero options to remove any topping. Doesn't matter if you can't tolerate cheeses. Take it or leave it says the parrot at the order counter.“

“EXCELLENT customer service! We are on vacation and stopped in after tasting a sample. The staff was extremely friendly and treated our family very well! Seriously, over the top! We will definitely come again on our next trip. The food was also very good!“

“I love this place! They have such a huge variety of flavors, and my favorite is coconut. It has a smooth, fresh taste with the perfect level of sweetness. I always get it in a waffle cone — it’s delicious! The location is great, there are parks nearby for a nice walk, and they’re always super friendly.“

“Paolo non vende solo gelato ma pasta ,salse biscotti tutto italiano e biologico …e tanto altro ancora . Per tutta la mia famiglia è un ottimo punto di riferimento ad Atlanta 👍“

“This is the best ice cream in Atlanta. I've tried a variety if places since moving here in 2021, and this place is the best. They actually do HOMEMADE ice cream, not Hershey. Also the flavors are well balanced, creative, and they use a good percentage of air/overrun so the ice cream has a rich creamy texture. Lastly, the customer service is great.“

“Quality Ice Cream!!! Awesome People Great Customer Service! I recommend recommend!!!“

“I love there Oreo cookies there amazing“

“Visited this amazing shop earlier for a double scoop cone! It lived up to the hype. The ice cream is delicious! They even have tasty vegan options. It was wonderful! We had an awesome time here. The atmosphere was lovely, classic, and timeless. The staff are truly pleasant and very helpful if you aren't sure of what you want to try. There are many delicious flavors. Definitely worth the trip!“

“Super cute little shop! Experience was much nicer than your typical Brusters/Coldstone-type options. But more importantly - the FLAVORS and QUALITY were obvious! I got the Honeycomb Forest and my goodness was it good. The others with me enjoyed their flavor choices as well. We also got some cute Pup Cups for our dogs that were nice additions. We will definitely be back!“

“The weather was nice, the friends were out for a stroll after a morning of volunteering, what better reasons to stop into Big Softie for a cool treat! LoL. As I walked in my senses were attacked by fresh smells of sweet cream and fresh waffle cones. To say I was instantly excited would be an understatement. I was overjoyed by the instant memories of childhood and the local ice cream parlor. The nostalgia was free with my order. Ha! Walking up to the cashier to order, the young lady was very nice and greeted me with a smile. As I was the last of the group to order I knew what I wanted. I partook in a small vanilla on a cake cone with rainbow sprinkles (jimmies where I’m from). I placed my order, provided my name, and stood to the side. Once my order was ready, my name was called and my excitement started all over again. The ice cream was perfectly sculpted. It looked as if every sprinkle was perfectly placed and the ice cream to cone ratio was perfecttttttttttttttttttt. I’m one who bites the top of the swirl off first and upon FIRST BITE… I was planning my next visit back. LoL. Fresh Ice Cream Fresh Cone Super Fresh Sprinkles And best of all, the cream to sugar ratio was algebraically perfect. It’s official. I’ll be back in two weeks for my next fix. Dare I say, Big Softie is now in my Top 5 for Ice Cream, and #1 for Soft Serve. Do yourself a favor and get you some. 🥳“

“I NEEDED this treat today! New Orleans Praline Pecan ice cream for the win.“

“Their ice cream is so good!! I absolutely love the carrot cake and coffee gelato. The service is amazing, and I can’t wait to come back.“

“This is my favorite spot to get ice cream! I love yall DOWN. The staff is always sweet, friendly, and chill. This place has a more relaxed ambiance to it and it's not as rushed. Cookie Monster is my fav, but I have to give it a break... sadly. Come here if you want TASTY flavors in the square.“

“Delicious!

I got a ezquite ( corn, sour cream, mayo, lime and powder chili)
Dubai chocolate churro, ice cream. Doritos fixed with cucumbers, mango, Valentina and many other good things!
100% recommended“

“To be honest this place is elegant but has a refreshing Taste palate. Not only does it make you feel like your having an honest great experience 1st hand of gelato or not to mention that it's not something you'll have every day so they make the experience more desirable than anything“

The cupcakes turned out exactly how I wanted and were delicious!!! Thank you for going above and beyond!!!“

“We tried the matcha mango sticky rice! Highly recommend it with matcha ice cream and asking for extra coconut rice. Dessert was a 10/10! There is limited parking in front of the store. I would recommend parking in the plaza behind the store.“

“Out of every ice cream spot I visited across the USA, this one took the crown without question. The flavor variety was incredible, the prices were surprisingly reasonable, and the young, energetic staff made the whole experience feel warm and genuine.“

“LOVE this Rita’s! Barbara is awesome and was super patient with my little one in helping her decide which flavor she wanted. Custard is AMAZINGGGGG and the ice flavors are so delicious. None can compare!“

“Absolutely delicious strawberry ice cream i’m waffle cone 👌🏾“

“I would just like to give a BIG shout out to the staff at the Toco Hills location. Two days ago I placed an order for delivery to my son on his Birthday June 10th as a surprise. I had never ordered from them nor had anything delivered from them. When I placed the order everything was super easy. But I messed up and put in the address completely wrong. When I tried to revise, it wouldn't let me on line. I called the store for help, the girl who answered the phone was so polite and so helpful. She tried everything she could to help me but unfortunately she couldn't figure it out either. So I said, it's ok, thanks I will try again on my end. I still couldn't cancel or update. I called back the next morning and got another person who AGAIN was extremely patient and so very helpful. She did everything she could as well to help, finally she got a manager and they canceled my first order and we got it all straightened out. My son received his cookies today and enjoyed them so much and was also very surprised. I am so sorry I did not get anyone's name, but Management needs to know that you and your staff are doing a great job and are giving great customer service. Something that has lately gone by the wayside. I will definitely purchase again! Thank you.“
