“Great food and service was good“

“Absolutely delicious. The only ice cream store I know of that will split a single. Wonderful customer experience.“

“This place is absolutely fantastic! From the moment we walked in, we were welcomed with genuine kindness and exceptional customer service. We had the pleasure of meeting the regional manager, who was warm, friendly, and truly wonderful. The entire team went above and beyond. They came from behind the counter to introduce themselves, took the time to engage with our children, and made us feel like valued guests instead of just customers. The desserts were absolutely scrumptious and unlike anything we've ever had. We were especially grateful that they offered delicious plant based options, which made the experience even better. This wasn't just a stop for dessert. It was an experience we'll always remember. We will definitely be back, and we hope they remember us because we certainly won't forget them. We highly recommend this place! Our three girls loved everything about this place 🩷🩷🩷. 7/23/2026 😊

Inside joke: Always a New Yorker!!!

I wanted to update my review because I felt it was important to recognize Mr. Joseph and Ms. Anita. They are two of the kindest, most pleasant people I have met in a long time. My family and I were truly grateful for their kindness, thoughtfulness, and genuine consideration of our dietary needs. They work incredibly well together, run the business with excellence, and create such a warm and welcoming atmosphere. It was an absolute joy spending time with them, and they made our entire experience even more memorable. They are a true asset to this establishment, and we look forward to seeing them again. They are absolutely worth sitting in traffic for.“

“Delicious! Best ice cream ever! We get it every time my daughter Sarah goes to the orthodontist and it makes it extra special because she is named Sarah and it's called Sarah's handmade ice cream and she really likes the samples because that helps us choose what flavor to get and it's just amazing definitely recommend five out of five stars“

“Delicious cookies and always friendly staff. Great for celebrations or just a treat to brighten your or someone else’s day! Something for everyone’s taste. There are a few regular flavors (sugar, chocolate chip…) and then 4 or more other flavors that change each week. I recommend placing your order on the app. You’ll get points toward free cookies and a cookie on your bday.“

It’s right next door to the Regal movie theater, offers 4 non-dairy flavors, closes at 10:30pm on weekends, and has an “all gender bathroom.” Several ice cream cakes and other frozen treats are available for grab and go out of their freezer.“

“It is a super nice true Italian Gelato and coffee Cafe. Was really impressed with the decor, the Italian vibe in everything. Cool layout for a small space. The staff was nice and knowledgeable. One star off for serving completely crushed macaroons although they were tasty, if they are broken or crushed, you don't sell or serve them.“

“Wonderful gluten free options and excellent coffee and smoothies !“

“Erick from the Chantilly location did a fricken great job. Down to earth. Knowledgeable. Professional. The food was fresh and delicious. Very different than just a traditional ice cream joint. Thank you!!!“

“Love the latte flight! And the sandwiches are delicious!“

“Dolcezza Gelato & Coffee serves some really great gelato. The flavors taste natural, clean, and fresh, without being overly sweet or artificial. They also have plenty of interesting flavors to choose from, which makes deciding what to get half the fun.

My only complaint, and it’s a minor one, is that the gelato I had was slightly softer than I prefer. I felt like it could have been just a little firmer to give it a better texture and consistency.

That said, the flavor was excellent, and that’s ultimately what matters most. Great gelato, interesting choices, and definitely a place I’d happily visit again.“

“As a former pastry chef I find Jubilee to be an Exceptional tasting ice cream. I was super impressed, and Fell in love with the sweet potato and candy molasses. Crave it even! It was evident to me that they use Quality ingredients, decadent flavor profiles with lots of Creativity.“

“great Service good icecream“

“I really enjoy the extensive variety of tropical flavors that this place has! The ice cream portions are pretty big in comparison to amount you are generally served in other ice cream places. The ice cream is high quality and icrediably tasty! Also the customer service is really good . Definietly my favorite ice cream place!! If your thinking of going I would recomend trying the passion fruit , piña colada , or rum rasin.“

“John, the owner of Baskin-Robbins, goes above and beyond. When they were out of the flavor we requested for our holiday ice cream cake, he put in so much effort to contacting us, making a custom flavor for us, and making sure we were able to get our order in time for the holiday, even with special hours. The communication was excellent, and all of the ice cream and cakes on display looked so good!“

“What a magical place the Great Falls creamery is!!! Back in better ways! It always puts a smile on our faces. It is so much more than just an ice cream shop - it is an experience! The products are delicious, the staff is friendly and accommodating to reasonable requests. Have you tried the ice cream sandwich yet? You can customize your own! Can’t wait for the coffee and juices.“

“The cookies at Levain Bakery were fresh out of the oven and absolutely delicious. I tried the signature Chocolate Chip Walnut and the Two Chip, and the Two Chip was easily my favorite—crispy on the outside, soft and gooey in the middle, with chocolate melting everywhere. Service was fast, and the staff was very friendly. Fresh, warm, and exactly what you want from a bakery cookie!“

“Our family's favorite. Proud Crave Card powerusers! They are always coming up with new and delish flavors of ices, pops, custard, drinks, and every kind of dessert you can imagine. Plus they offer coffee and breakfast! . The Fall Gelatis are our go-to desserts. I just wish they would post the flavors of the day online, but that would be hard because there are so many!“

“Tried the unicorn ice yesterday. Very tasty flavor. Hope it becomes a permanent flavor.“

“The original yogurt ice cream flavor was definitely my favorite — creamy, refreshing, and just right. There are so many topping options to choose from, but after trying the other flavors, I still think the original is the best. 🍦✨“

“Had lunch here for the first time. The chopped salad with chicken was so good! Thanks to all the diligent service personnel. Planning on coming back for dinner sometime by the looks of the menu. They have an outside dining area which I’d like to try.“

“Wonderful people and delicious gelato. I highly recommend Gemma Gelato!! Thank you for the special help Tiger.“

“I doordash from here atleast once a week and it’s always really good but on January 22nd 2026 around 6:45 the best ice cream I have ever had was delivered to me. It had the perfect consistency and the perfect amount of chocolate brownie mixed in. This was so unexpected and I considered driving to the store to give the creator my life savings. I am saving the last bit of it in my freezer for when I need it the most. Coldstone, you outdid yourself again.“

“Shay was so amazing, friendly, and attentive from the moment I walked in to the moment I checked out. I received incredible customer service from her as well as a great positive attitude! I will absolutely be coming back to this Crumbl because of Shay!!!!“

“So very happy to have a bubble tea place in my neck of the woods! Delicious!“

“I've always had good experiences at this location, which is why I'm still giving it 4 stars and will continue coming back.

That said, I had a concerning experience during my visit on June 29 at around 8:40 PM. I wasn't asked for my rewards phone number, which is normally fine because I can scan the barcode on my receipt later to receive my rewards points. However, when I received my receipt, there was no barcode to scan. In the past, whenever I haven't provided my phone number, a barcode has always been printed so I could claim my points afterward.

Based on that, I believe an employee may have entered a different rewards phone number instead of asking for mine. I can't say for certain that's what happened, but based on my previous experiences, it's the only explanation that makes sense to me. If that's what occurred, it's something management should investigate because customers shouldn't lose out on the rewards they've earned.

Other than this incident, I've always enjoyed coming here. The ice cream is great, the staff is usually friendly, and I hope this issue is addressed.“

“I had a great experience at Crumbl last week thanks to an employee I believe was named Camilla-(She was Hispanic?) One of the other employees accidentally messed up my order, but she quickly stepped in and corrected it without any hassle. She greeted me warmly when I came in, made me feel welcome, and even offered to help if I needed anything else. She turned what could have been a frustrating experience into a great one, thank you…😊“
