“always great Service & Food always Fresh hot food French fries onion rings etc. & my favorite is the cashew caramel Sundae Luv it & so does my husband❤🇵🇷❤“

“First and foremost The Service Was Amazing Considering We Came In 30 mins To Closing 🤪 The 2 ladies were so sweet!!!! Gelato was delicious Highly recommended!!! Definitely found our new spot!!!!“

“Service was amazing and ice cream was excellent! We went without reading reviews with our 3 year old. He doesn’t scare easily, but the super loud music and scary animal farm theme was… a lot. Just not what I normally expect at an ice cream “shoppe” (shoppe with that spelling always has a quant vibe), with quotes on the walls about dead humans and such. Clearly a lot of love goes into the decor, and I’m not tucking anyone else’s yum- hence the five stars. But I did worry that the mannequins and paintings might give a young kid some nightmares. Fortunately he mostly looked at the ceiling, which is a super cool cloudscape. So, yeah. Amazing service, ice cream, and super friendly… just feels at odds with the decor.“

“Cute and delicious! Koalas, unicorns, piggies and pandas for the win!“

“My favorite ice cream in all of Chicago. Homemade fresh every single day so when they run out that’s it! I love that this is a small business with so much heart. The flavors are incredible. The goat cheese cashew caramel is my go to and a fan favorite. The Italian Cookie tastes exactly like biscoff cookies. Serving size is perfect. Each scoop is not too big nor too small, and every bite is packed with flavor. They have amazing options for vegans too, so many dairy free options and days where they only serve dairy free! Staff are super sweet, there is lovely little outdoor patio area with string lights and tables under shady trees. My favorite spot to grab ice cream with friends (or solo!) and sit awhile. I have been eating Black Dog for the last 5 years and I can’t recommend it enough.“

“Went yesterday to see what all the hype was about and boy was I blown away! The helado de coco is the best I have ever had and I am born and raised in PR!! Keep up the great work!“

“The most amazing ice cream treat I’ve ever eaten. Highly recommended“

“This place has so much to choose from! Soft serve, so many ice cream flavor, so many toppings, shaved ice, shakes, banana split, etc.“

“First time there today, but I'll be back again soon. The coffee milkshake was so good, as was their cheezy bread! Can't wait to try more!“

“Nice ice cream shop and a bonus as they have entertainment“

“Great neighborhood place for an easy family outing.“

“Ummmm….these are the best churros I’ve eaten in my whole life thus far. I have them to about 8 other adults and 10 children and EVERYONE mentioned “Oh! These are really good!” Service was quick and for me got the order correct. They got it down on how a churro is suppose to taste and the texture crispy outside soft inside but not gooey like it wasn’t cooked all the way. They are utmost fantastic hot but they are just as enjoyable cool/cold. There are not many at all that can past that test. I got plain churros cause I’m not a fan of them having stuff inside BUT based on how the plain one taste I am tempted to try all the flavors!! Horchata is house made no mix but for my taste it was super super sweet:-/“

“Great Custard, hot dogs, & Service!“

“Holy sweet mother of god. A four panel menu of ice cream is amazingly overwhelming. The sundaes don't skimp on the ice cream or the toppings. They're huuuuuge and delicious. The ambiance takes you back on time where one didn't need to worry about pesky things like calories. Service was prompt and attentive and the only down side is that now I need to work off an ice cream induced coma. Oof.“

“Delicious Italian ice I liked all the flavors. Prices are excellent“

“Amazing place best customer service and everything is delicious 😋“

“If you are a fan of Ice cream, this is a great place to go. With dozens of ice cream flavor, package candies such as chocolate covered cherries, and half a dozen Sundays this is a great place to go.
The restaurant has a lovely antique vibe with little stereos at each table and a glass memorabilia case filled with the heritage of Margie’s Candies.
The service is great, you get your food within minutes of ordering. All the waiters are very nice and can help you pick your order. You’re seated quite fast and can easily have a to go order if you would like.
I would say Sundays are their specialty. The Sunday comes with hot fudge, wafers, and three scoops of your choice of ice cream. The portions can be shared or finished on your own. If you don’t want all that or for some reason that doesn’t sound appealing you could also get a shake. The shakes are very good, they aren’t too thick and aren’t watery. The flavor is very good and can easily substitute for a meal.
Margie’s is a great place to go whether you want a Sunday or if you looking for a fancy treat. Margie’s if a wonderful affordable way spend your afternoon.“

“Such a delicious treat in any kind of weather.“

“Great soft serve ice creams“

“Came in with a friend who had never had boba before. The owner(?) recommended her a flavor and offered to make her a different kind if she didn't like it. She had brown sugar, I had taro, and my wife had a caramel latte boba. All were delicious! We also got the mini pancake bites which were fantastic. The owner(?) was super nice and gave us free water as well. If it wasn't a 40 minute drive for us we would be here all the time!“

“Some f he best pineapple soft se even we've ever had. They have good portions and very fresh ice cream
We love heir babnana split with fresh ingredients and extra nuts. Been here for over twn years. Quick spot. Some seating area and no bathroom“

“Gelato is good, the floor layout is wack. For some reason you have to check in at the center of the counter and then wait in the middle of the entry-door until you get called, which is confusing AF for people who come in and think they're standing in line. (Sorry guys the 8.5x11 laminated signs don't rectify this).“

“The girl working there was so kind. She went over all the flavors and toppings with us and what a personality! Kudos to the Niles location!!!!!“

“Nice ice cream shop and a bonus as they have entertainment“

“If you need your teas, they have them.
If you need your pomadas, they have them.
If you have a taste of delicious Mexican candy, they have it.
Now if you are thirsty well they can help with that too.
Your child wants ice cream? They have that too.

Kid-friendliness: They help your child with all delicious option for whatever they select.“

“By far the best Italian place for breakfast,lunch and dinner !! The atmosphere here is the best from the cashiers to whoever serves you your food ! Ann Marie was the sweetest I came when I was 8 months pregnant and ate everything!! From a meatball sandwich to the chicken limón to everything else my husband ordered off the menu !! Ann Marie made me feel the best straight out of the hospital this day!! She gave me a good long list of baby names that I will appreciate forever !! I cannot wait until my baby boy gets a taste of this place !!! If I can rate this 10 stars I would ! ❤️“

“Very good I love it in my neighborhood“

“Came here on my lunch break and was very impressed with the menu. The fact that they were able to make me exactly what I wanted was even better. A Pepino and Line Smoothie with Tajin. ? Zayra took our order and was just the sweetest thing. Thanks girlfriend! ?

One more thing, it was so delicious.“

“Let’s face it. There are La Michoacana ice cream stores on every other block on North Clark. We stopped here for dessert and it’s easily our favorite! The helado (ice cream) is to die for! The coconut is outstanding as is Abuela’s Chocolate. There are regular flavors and some (Rum Raisin!) are so creative and delicious. And the paletas! The BEST Arroz, Fresa, Mango, Coconut...the list goes on. And the couple that run the place are just the sweetest people! Highly recommended.“

“Amazing flavors, great staff. Very nice atmosphere. Good location. I love having this Argentinian delight in Chicago.“

“I absolutely love Crumbl Cookies, especially since they started offering cakes! The flavors are always incredible, and the cakes add an extra layer of deliciousness to their already amazing selection. Every time I visit, the service is quick and efficient, making the experience even more enjoyable. The only downside is the parking, which can be a bit of a challenge since the location is on a main road. But despite that, I always find a way to stop by because the cookies and cakes are worth it!"“

“Excellent service and the owners provides groceries for Evanston's seniors and shut in.“

“I love the halo -halo but I hope the customer service will get better. The person who took my orders seems like she wasn’t glad I made an order and not so welcoming. Good customers service is A Must to attract more patron js . Thanks“
