Best ice cream in town. Perfect texture, wonderful flavors, and one of the few places that adds enough of the mix-ins. I wish they had cocoa pudding and chocolate #3 more often. If it were up to me there would always be one of the intense chocolate flavors available. Chocolate #3 chip would also be an incredible flavor for us chocolate lovers.

Today a group of us showed up when the store were closed (didn't realize the hours had changed for the winter)...

I’ve been coming to Toscanini’s for years, and I’ve always been head over heels for their B3 cake.

I was throwing a birthday party for my severely disabled mom this past weekend and since she’s mostly on a liquid/pudding-thick diet, I really wanted her to try this cake since at least the ice cream part is something she could eat. She’s always been a huge ice cream lover — it runs in the family.

I had been trying to get into Cambridge...

This is the best ice cream shop in Boston. The ice cream is light and not overly sweet. This is a must try if you're a fan of green tea ice cream. The green tea ice cream meets or exceeds my similar experiences in Japan. There's a ton of other flavors as well.
