“Everything was so very delicious, fresh and fast. This was the best Mangonada I've ever had!!! The Georgia Peach Snoball with condensed milk was fabulous!! I had the Stret Corn in a cup it was so hot and tasty a perfect salty balance to all the sweetness I was eating. They also had the viral Mango Ice Cream but if I had to choose it would be THE MANGONADA for sure!!! Affordable, family friendly and super tasty!! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!“

“Unique flavors and amazing taste!“

“After a busy hot day walking through the Quarter we were lucky to find OK ice cream. You would not know this place here because it’s hidden away with all the construction. They have a nice selection of ice cream and a couple tables to sit at and rest so we could gathered our energy before we continue on our day.“

“Best ice cream in Baton Rouge, absolutely recommend“

“They’re Butter Pecan Icecream is the best!“

“Dropped by for a cold yummy treat. Scarlett and her team went above and beyond to allow us to choose our combination. The cherry non-dairy soft-serve with vanilla custard was outrageously delicious!“

“We always try to get to Creole Creamery when we visit New Orleans. We love the variety of unique ice cream flavors“

“This is by far the best Snowball stand in the world. Just saying! The ice , the flavors are amazing. But I had a bad experience. I always order a medium sized snowball in a large cup. All of you experienced snowball experts understand my reasoning for doing this. So that I can drive without the drizzle of syrup running down my shirt. Well, I asked for the large cup and the cashier didn’t acknowledge that she did hear what I asked. So I repeated it. She then responded quite rudely. Saying that she did hear what I asked. Well of course when my number was called to get my treat it was in a medium cup. I asked about the large cup and was told that it wasn’t on the receipt. I was then told that they could not transfer my treat because of the condense milk. With all this trouble … I can’t wait to get off of work to go back..?“

“My grandkids loved it! We’ve been before and will return.“

“Miss Bri and Miss Savannah were phenomenally excellent at customer service, knowing what ingredients were in each menu item (in case of allergies or sensitivities), and they practiced safe health practices, and made me the most absolutely delectable nut/fruit acai bowl that I have ever tasted in this lifetime. They deserve a raise, steak dinner, and unlimited oreos. <3 110% would recommend!!!“

“If visting New Orleans this place is a must stop! Delicious!!! Friendly and very welcoming staff; the variety of flavors were amazing! We were offered sample cups to try each flavor, which made it Very difficult to decide. If you're not a yogurt fan, still I say give them a try because it will change your outlook on yogurt and for the yogurt fans, you will be spoiled between the variety of toppings and flavors to choose from. Awesome place! 😊“

“From Houston and it is a must try when coming to New Orleans… Great customer service!!!!“

“Delicious food with great customer service experience! I went today for the first time and was impressed. I ate everything before taking pictures. We’ll definitely be back!

My favorite was the Snowball & Fish Bun: ♥️“

“I always come to this location.. sometimes its a nice experience n other times. Well u c where I'm going with this.. my overall experience is ok. Its the only Baskin Robbins n my area so I'll b back hoping the next experience is better than the last“

“I have a hard time trying to find a snoball stand that can make a cotton candy with condensed milk how I like it. This place gets it right everytime. They are very consistent.They also sell snacks , nachos, and other food items. Definitely one of my favorite snoball spots icing on the cake is that it’s right Nextdoor to Casnets so i can order my seafood plate too ?☺️ Yummy ?“

“The staff at this location were nothing short of amazing! Everyone were incredibly kind and helpful despite having a long line. Luckily they worked quickly and were incredibly professional and patient. After receiving my frozen lemonade I witnessed a woman yelling at the kind employee and being incredibly disrespectful which resulted in the customers husband pulling her away. It was just terrible the customer actions were deplorable and I feel embarrassed for her husband and children that were with her but the staff, two young boys and the manager an energetic a sweet black lady name Tasha I believe handled it very professionally and were still kind to all of the following customers. I give them a 10/10 for their customer service and their frozen lemonade! 6/17/2023“

“great location. plenty place to park“

“My wife love the candy apples! I love the sticks of Carmel“

“I just wanted to say what an amazing staff you have! My husband and I have been trying to get to drip for a while now and we finally made it. It was a spur of the moment so I didn’t make reservations. We sat at the bar and to see the interactions with the staff warmed my heart! Emily ( behind the bar) was excellent! She was so patient with the staff, while she never stopped working, she still made time to tend to her customers, answer questions for the staff and even teach them how to do things to help. I adore your establishment and wish we would ah e come sooner! But we WILL be back! and you guys will always be a top recommendation for everyone who asks places to go! Your staff from the door to the bar EXCELLENT! Kudos! the desserts and drinks were amazing! Cheers to DRIP and to many more years!“

“If you are a teen it would a great place. But for adults it was not so good. Teens were throwing footballs over our heads. Not an enjoyable experience.“

“Eggplant parm, blackberry and cookie butter gelato, great service and a fun location!!!“

“i work here and love it God is good“

“Great snowballs and boudin!!!!!“

“It’s the best snowballs hands down“

“Just wanted to say that the Roasted Strawberry Creole on a waffle cone at French Quarter Fest was easily the best strawberry ice cream I’ve ever had because it blew. my. mind. Will be seeing y’all a lot more often this summer, thanks!“

“First time in and tried the s'more bar and the almont petit four. I liked the toasted marshmallow on the s'more. The chocolate layer was unexpectedly light and mild. I expected a darker flavor and a denser texture. So this is a delicate, melt in your mouth s'more. The thin graham cracker base was soft and it's contribution was lost in the overall velvety experience. It is a very good elevated pastry, and I discovered I'm a bit of a traditionalist who prefers the more familiar textures of a traditional s'more.
The almond petit four was recommended by staff and it was exceptional. Great texture, aromatic almond and petit enough for its sweetness to not overwhelm.“

“Sno La is everything in a snowball“

“Great. Worth a trip over there from the east bank. Go over to barracuda and get yourself a little margarita beforehand. The diner looked like you’d expect it to. We got the VIP spot by the window in the booth. Right now it’s a soft opening apparently so the menu was limited, but we wanted burgers anyway. We got the hash brown bowl to split amongst four people to start. Table was split between drinking Schlitz and Jucifer. Just one round. Food came fast, and the burger was tasty and filling. Show string fries were solid. When the bill came for the three burgers (one burger was split and had extras like bacon on it and there was and an extra order of fries ), hash bowl, and beer it was $75. Pretty sweet. We did not get the ice cream, but will next time.“

“Blown away by the Shroom sandwich and the Dubai Shake!“

“Ice cream & waffle cones are the best!!“

“The fish plates are the best. I go every Friday ❤“

“1st time testing out this company hand down the close shop on crumble baked to perfection was warmed the perfect temperature the outside of the cookie had perfect crunch the inside of the cookie was soft like it's supposed to be we purchase the little variety selection the flavors were legendary hats off to the chef I definitely raise my glass 🥂 I'm from 50 miles south of N.O. hoping y'all expand the only cookie spots we have are crumble in American cookie company You were company puts both of them to shame I appreciate your business 🫡🎰🥂 almost forgot let's talk about the to-go boxes the factor that yall purchasing actual pizza boxes instead of those little flimsy cookie boxes or bags like most cookie companies sell their items in Thank you for caring about your product!!!“

“The best macarons you’ll ever have followed by exceptional customer service! Highly recommend any of the Sucré locations in New Orleans.“

“Coffee, food, service & atmosphere were a 10/10!“

“If you’re visiting the area, make sure you stop by this fudgery — it’s one of those hidden gems that instantly makes your trip sweeter! The staff is super friendly and happy to let you sample a few flavors . The banana ice was outrageously good.“

“Me and my mom tried this place for the first time last week and the food was very good 🤤. I had the shrimp platter which came with jumbo shrimp and plenty of fries. My mama also had the same thing and we both enjoyed it. Prices are very reasonable so if you're looking for something affordable and good to eat I highly recommend Louie's Kitchen 💯“

“Philly Cheese steak poboy...with handcut fries...delicious. outside seating. ..nope, sitting at a table in the ditch along a very busy street with cars zooming past...nahhhh they have inside seat available but the worker at the register (owner?) told me inside seating wasn't open "this afternoon due to a large party coming in..." they never showed the whole time I ate outside over the dirty ditch. food great, I'll take mine ToGo next time unless inside is available.“

“BEST SNOWBALL EVER!!!!!!!“
