“So many delicious flavors, it was hard to pick. Our family of four enjoyed our different choices. It's a beautiful ambiance for the beginning of summer with indoor and outside space. Staff was very friendly and helpful in helping us decide which flavors to try. Def recommend and we'll be back to try new flavors!“
“The place is cozy and welcoming, the aroma inside is divine. We went in for a quick to go order of freshly baklava and there were so many varieties.Husband and I will definitely be back to enjoy more than the desserts. A perfect place for a coffee date.“
“A friend told me about this neighborhood gem. I'm blown away by the friendly atmosphere and staff. If you're looking for something special and authentic this is the place to visit. Everything made in-house and freshly prepared with care and love“
“Everytime I stop by for a snack, they always welcome you with a big smile, they are very friendly, customer service is great, love coming to this michoacana ?. Love the strawberry yogurt with mix fruits. Thank you for your great customer service.“
“I went through the drive-thru to get a ?RAINBOW CONE? for my birthday. It was my first time ever, and I was not disappointed!!!There are several flavors of ice cream available by the pint or quart. They pack it FRESH. I bought a quart of the Lemon Raspberry Swirl and a quart of the Big Muddy for later. YUMMY!!! They even included cones wrapped in paper that could be used for sharing.The corner location at the traffic signal on Roosevelt Road makes for easy entering/exiting. Parking is plentiful.????My ?RAINBOW CONE? on the waffle cone was fantastic!!! My only difficulty was NOT trying every flavor. I'll be back!!!????Parking: Parking is plentiful in the parking lot area.Kid-friendliness: ?YES!!!?“
“Awesome place for smoothies and frozen yogurt , haven’t had a bad experience in the year I been going , always has the freshest fruit and everything is clean and on point , definitely recommend to anyone , owner is super nice and easy going as “
“Delicious cookies! My favorite is chocolate chip! Staff is super friendly and the place looks super clean. Recommend 100%.Parking: There is plenty of parking spaces.Kid-friendliness: Kids can actually see the staff baking and packaging the cookies.Wheelchair accessibility: The store is spacious for wheelchair.“
“This place has the most incredible crepes, both sweet and savory. The only bad part is choosing what to get. We always go way overboard and get a couple different ones to eat as a family, but you can't help it. It's all delicious.“
“Best local spot for gelato or food!! They always have a huge variety of gelato and ice cream flavors. I love coming here, the portions are always big as well. Their food is served hot and tasty! I also really like the small and intimate environment. I always have great service!“
“An absolutely amazing restaurant which is rare to find in this area. Besides the food being above par…the service is above and beyond. All the servers and even the head chef will come out to the customers and make sure you walk out more than satisfied. One server Yaren, she made sure we were taken care of so well the whole time. She is absolutely a great server! Food is so authentic it taste just like when I ate in Turkey ??! Promise you will love this place just as much as I did!“
“It was our first time yesterday and everyone there was so nice & welcoming! I believe the owners were there cleaning and just being present in their shop. They were so friendly when stopping to talk to customers. The coffee is amazing but they also have breakfast/lunch sandwiches! The Benedict Arnold? 10/10 the biggie shakes? 10/10 & you’re supporting a small business!“
“Really enjoyed this unique coffee and gelato place. Not only was the latte perfect, but the gelato was also really fresh and they had plenty of flavors. I saw others getting Nutella crepes that also looked amazing. Will most definitely come back!“
“When I come in to Chicago to visit family and friends I always make an attempt to come here to eat. Great food and atmosphere. It is a very tiny place inside a bowling alley but very busy because of the staff and food. 5 Sears Towers because after five years he is still consistent.“
“I have been going to this place since it opened and i had always only gotten the nachos extra cheese and peppers because they reminded me of my childhood. But then i tried the ice cream it is the best. Look the owner she is the best and the most sweetest person in the world. And i am so happy for her that she expanded the shop. If you haven't been there go. Take the kids parents and just treat yourself.“
“I love this place and appreciate having an Italian bakery being near by. An authentic one serving lots of delicious baked item and Gelato /sorbetto,coffee. I was sad becaus3 a couple times I ordered some pasteri3s,they were old and also the Gelato and sorbetto were freezer burned. I guess I'll stick with the cannoli which is made fresh and probably in summer the Gelato will be fresher.“
“I've never had a bad experience here at Crumbl Cookies!Since moving to the area a few months ago, this has been our go-to Crumbl Cookies spot. We get it probably once a month - yikes! Every time here, though, has been the opposite of yikes - the staff is friendly, the cookies are fresh, it's never busy, always clean, and there's ample parking outside. At my old Crumbl Cookies location in Schaumburg, it was always a tight squeeze and hustle-and-bustle situation inside the store and in the parking lot because it was so busy. This location is bigger with more parking, but it's never busy which I like. Let's be real, Crumbl Cookies are freaking good. There's 4 rotating flavors every single week and 2 constant flavors (chocolate chip & sugar). I always love the chocolate chip and will get it in replacement of one of the rotating cookies when I get a 4-pack. In my opinion the warm cookies are always better than the chilled, but some of the chilled ones are great, too. They also sometimes include a mystery cookie which yes, is a mystery when you get it. I love that they do that, I think it's a fun concept especially if you really don't know which other cookie to get or want to try something new.There's TONS of flavors in general at Crumbl, I can't even select my favorite one. When they have these flavors, I do really enjoy their cinnamon swirl cookie, s'mores, cinnamon fry bread, dulce de leche, Biscoff lava, chocolate cake, buckeye brownie, and basically any flavor that has cinnamon or caramel in it, or that's super chocolatey and gooey. You already know I'll be coming to this location again!“

“Do NOT sleep on the pineapple Dole whip or even just visiting Hole in the Wall! It is so, so delicious, especially the pineapple Dole whip (did I already say that?). It's so good that my chocolate-loving 5-year-old asked to go back before they close for the season for more pineapple Dole whip, because it in her words "It's even more yummy than chocolate!" Hurry, & stop by before they close for the season on October 8.“
“Great tasting assortment, really reasonable pricing, particularly on cakes to go (try it for your next b-day party or such), but most of all super-kind, well-mannered, genuinely courteous staff - it's always a pleasure to stop by. I'm glad that they are in the neighborhood. Kids love it.“
“You will be part of the family here! Everyone is welcome and the owner will go out of her way to make you feel like her family the moment you walk in the door. By far the best gelato I have ever had! The owner Antonella could not have been more welcoming. I observed her interacting with children and she made them feel so special. The hand crafted affogato was out of the world. The shop is so cute and welcoming, perfect for relaxing and enjoying a delicious treat. We will be back soon! AMAZING!!! In the meantime, I was sure to bring some gelato home until I can get back!“
“Quiet ice cream place stuck in a strip mall but find it!! Ice cream is delish with lots of kid friendly flavors, great prices and the employee was patient, kind and helpful to my 2 littles.Kid-friendliness: Kind to children, kid sizes, kid flavors, candy eye balls, sprinkles“
“HOLY COW, this is a hidden treasure of a food spot in Oak Lawn! The atmosphere of the store is amazing and cozy. Great menu selection and the food is out of this world! I ordered the Chicken Burrito Suizo and a mango Fresca and everything is made fresh and truly made with love and passion!! The rice and beans were some of the best I’ve ever had too! Great job and will be back over and over again!!“
“The shop is located right downtown elmhurst. Perfect for those evening summer strolls! The customer service is great. The people working just want to provide you with a great experience and give you some good ice cream. The treats themselves are on the pricier side, but they are really good as well. We have had sorbet and ice cream and both were really good.“
“More than helpful on the different sweets,Cannoli's were delicious and made to order, fresh! Everyone friendly, took my order with a smile...and a cookie for my grandson! :)Kid-friendliness: Person who took my order offered my grandson a cookie, sweet.“
“This is a gem, and I'm lucky to live near it. You don't find an ice cream shop like this in every town. Friendly staff, an excellent product, and a charming atmosphere. Bring your out of town guests for a treat, bring the kids on a hot day, or just get a little something for yourself - you won't regret it.“
“They always take the time to make everything so good! Favorite spot for ice-cream in Dowers. The waffles are also outstanding. Highly recommend getting the ice cream and waffle combos they are all so good.Vegetarian options: 2 or 3 Vegan OptionsDietary restrictions: Vegan options“
“Insanely yummy, creamy and massive soft serve with chocolate hardshell dip on waffle cone (with a little up charge).My friends enjoyed their scooped ice creams (probably a pint's worth per 2 scoop order) too!Prices are very reasonable for the amount of ice cream we got. Service / assembly line was organized and friendly so the line moved quickly.I'm so glad this ice cream joint is no where near my home for the sake of my thighs and belly!“
“My favorite ice cream place for now!! The ice cream is so delicious, creamy, and fresh!! Every flavor is so flavorful and yummy! I enjoyed the Boston cream ice cream, dark chocolate, and mint chip! I would 100% recommend this place! Customer service is great too!“

“Service was great. Had our ice cream served in freshly made waffle cones. They were still warm. Tried caramel collision and it was the best caramel ice cream I've ever had. Caramel ice cream with ribbons of caramel and chocolate covered caramel pieces. Absolute heaven.“
“Love this old school walk-up ice cream spot. Conveniently located near the bike path on main st. We like to walk there during the summer and enjoy a peanut buster parfait or one of their many special blizzards. Even when the line is long the staff is quick and friendly!and the ice cream is delicious!!“
“A great DQ drive thru to get a cone dipped in sprinkles!!! Fast service, delicious ice cream and soooooo many sprinkles! This is an old school drive thru Dairy Queen and you could get whatever cone or Blizzard you want. I have not much to say except for how fantastic it is to go and get your desired ice cream of choice. Can't beat it.“
“Open seasonally. Neighborhood burger and treat stand. Vintage signage and seating inside. Summer treats for all ages.We've always had good counter service from the people working there. Usually teens/college age staff that does a great job.Kid-friendliness: There is seating inside to be a bit more secure. Outside seating available but in parking lot.Snack foods (burgers/fries) but we always go for the frozen treats.“
“hands down BEST CRUMBL LOCATION IN THE CHICAGOLAND AREA!!! We have a store literally 3 minutes from our house and we still drive to Oakbrook because this store has the best selections and the staff is always on point and very inviting!! Been coming here since they opened up and would not go elsewhere!“

“Great spot to get Bubble tea, plus super delicious!The service is above and beyond, my friend and I forgot to ask for substitute milk after it was made ?♀️and even though we were prepared to repay to have it remade, the person remade it without asking us to pay again. Thank you!“
“Sticks & Cones is an wonderful addition to Oak Park! A great location with plenty of street parking. The ice cream is phenomenal. The frozen yogurt too!! They have a bunch of other treats to snack on as well. A special surprise of an arcade with your favorite 80’s games await you in the back - which you can play for free. We can’t wait to come back ❤️“
“Great place to get ice cream or floats, and hang with friends & family. Service is quick and staff is friendly. Been here plenty of times when I have late night ice cream cravings. They are usually packed in the summer, so be patient. Usually I rotate between a root beer (Sprecher on tap too) float, PB Oreo concrete, or a strawberry banana sundae. They used to have orange soda floats but they no longer carry orange soda. Bring it back!“
“Decided to stop here after picking up my son.. now our go to place!! Ice cream is superb! Nachos w/peppers amazing!! Banana splits!! So much goodness in this location! I’ll definitely be trying elotes next !! The fresh fruit is also great!!!! While it is a little pricey it’s definitely good!“
“I've been tempted to stop at this place every time I drive by, and today was the day. I was immediately struck by how spotless this place is upon arrival. It is exceptionally clean and well-organized, and every compartment where the ice cream is located is spotless. I received prompt and excellent treatment from the woman who assisted me. I didn't feel hurried out of there, and she took her time to make my order. Depending on how busy they are, places like these will typically rush you out and leave a mess everywhere. However, she provided excellent service, and I will definitely use her again.“
“Excellent food, service and personnel. I've had breakfast, lunch and dinner here, they are consistent with quality and food preparation. Carryout was great as well. I love their tortas, tacos and dinner plates. They also have wonderful Lent specials right now. The quesabirrias are sensational ♡“
“Amazing. Robert and Jessica are so nice and accommodated our wedding so amazingly. All the guests loved the fruits with chamoy, it was a big hit. And they stayed after to accommodate more guests. It was much appreciated and I would definitely recommend them for a “
“Their ingredients and burgers are always fresh. Customer service is off the charts. I love eating the Culver's deluxe with a side of onion rings. And for free dessert I fill out a survey and get a scoop of custard (usually flavor of the day). Delish!“
“We pass this place on the way to the airport each time. We weren't able to get ice cream on our vacation so this seemed like a good spot. The frozen custard was really good. My tin cup was excellent, my daughter's shake and my wife's concrete. It was a nice surprise but I see now why there is a line to get in. I have a feeling we will be stopping in more often either to or from the airport.“
“It was late and I decided to walk over and have a cheeseburger /w fries. Getting there was easy. On my way back home it got a little DARK. Need to remember Riverside has NO street lights. I had to walk more cautiously. . Tiptoe through the tulips. Ha“
“A great range of quality ice creams, fast and friendly service and good value. They even can do Pup Cups for your four-legged friends. Small indoor seating area but perfectly comfortable. The ‘small ice cream’ in a waffle cone was my choice and certainly was not disappointed. Easy street parking immediately outside. Looking forward to our next visit.“
“You just can't beat a butter burger. There fish is delicious too. But don't believe the hype on the website of the burgers being " cooked to order". Yes, they cook them when you order them, but you can't get it cooked to a preferred temp as I found out when I tried to order mine medium rare. They do cook them to a fairly decent medium, which is head and shoulders better than any other fast food place. Also beware that all the deluxes come standard with mayo, but they'll leave it off if you ask (went with my father who hates mayo and didn't realize it came with it until he started eating it). Staff is always lovely and incredibly helpful at Culver's.“

“Oh my Gosh if you have not been to the cute little candy shop in downtown Lombard you are missing a treat. They have all kinds of goodies besides candy. Caramel and cheese popcorn, jelly bellies and super premium ice cream which is to die for. I took a pint of their Zanzibar chocolate home and could have had the whole thing to myself it was so delicious, but I did share it with my husband. Stop in and treat yourself soon.“
“Updated review 4/16/2024:My previous review was a 1 star review based on unprofessional management. So far since then I haven't seen much hostility toward the employees unless it's from impatient customers who struggle to comprehend that they're not the only people waiting.Anyways, I've received exceptional service lately. Mainly from a very kind tall man with a beard and slightly longer hair. I wish I would've asked for his name.There's also another taller man who has a little stubble and glasses, he always greets me and calls me sir, which is cool because I'm actually transgender and I get a confidence boost each time I see him. Thank you. :)The food has improved as well, and their speed is top notch. I will admit Friday night was very busy BUT the employees handled it very well and professionally.Thank you for your hard work, guys. Anyone who says "fast food isn't hard work" is SO wrong. It's a very stressful environment and it's clear you have amazing employees who work extremely hard to keep the quality high and the wait time low. :)“
“Oreo ice cream was good, tortas de jamón were tasty, Takis con queso ? as expected. The only negative is the horachata was off on the flavoring. Not sure if it needed to be stirred or was just an older batch but wasn't impressed by that. Otherwise nice little place, the girl servicing us was very polite and pleasant. Would def stop by again.“
“My friend and I went here after the movies and decided to try their ice cream. The store itself is small but they have so much to offer from ice cream, candies, fudge, caramel apples, etc. It's location is perfectly located in downtown Elmhurst right next to the movie theatre. It was so hard to choose a flavor but I went with the All-American Two Berry Pie. Talk about YUM! The ice cream itself was so creamy and smooth. The texture was absolutely perfect. In the vanilla ice cream, there was a nice blend of strawberry, Blueberry, and sugared pie crust pieces. It was by far one of the best ice cream flavors I have ever had. The only downside is that they are quite pricy. It was $13 and some odd change for 2 single scoops in cake cones. I personally think that is pretty steep and the portion is just average. I cannot wait to come back to try more flavors as I am a ice cream lover!“
“Stopped in prior to an appointment down the road at Hines VA. Absolutely amazing customer service, (I wish I asked for the employees name, my receipt says Liz) but she was the friendliest, warmest, most pleasant person! I ordered fresas con crema and agua fresca de sandia, both are so delicious! I will definitely be visiting this place again! Thank you again for a wonderful experience!!“
