“I was Happy to try the Flamethrower Burger w/Fries,along with a Medium drink/Flurry(Awesome service worthy of 10,000/10,000 of awesomeness)“

“Culver''s is one of our favorite restaurants.“

“Always a unique selection, friendly service and great tasting ice cream! I need to make up excuses to treat myself. :) The apple crisp and oatmeal raison cookie flavors are 👌“

“My absolute favorite ice cream! We stop to get some every time we are in Minneapolis. We’ve enjoyed every flavor, but the lemon olive oil is so good that I dream about it! Definitely recommend!!!!“

“Fresh seasonal flavors that are constantly becoming new favorites. I love that everything is a very hands on and not crazy processed like most foods. Try oatmeal cookie or grasshopper if you can.“

“Some of the best sandwiches in the twin cities! The bread is unbeatable and they have something for everyone on their menu. The staff is incredibly friendly and the deli, although small, is very cozy and welcoming.

Some standouts on the menu:
Arlo - super gooey and delicious take on a chopped cheese. A great pick when you want the warm hug of a hot sandwich.

Finn - This vegetarian sandwich is sure to please pretty much anyone with fresh falafel, creamy goat cheese, and just a little heat from the peppers

Roman - I typically don't like ham sandwiches, but the turkey/ham combo on this sandwich combined with the classic toppings make this a craveable classic.“

“Best ice cream in the Northwest Metro. Lots of unusual flavors. Their coffee ice cream is soooo good. They let you sample any flavor.“

“The decoration and greenery is something ive never seen in a ice cream shop. The courtyard garden wow....and the ice cream is great. It was my first time there and nice employees. They dont allow pictures inside due to others privacy. I can see how that can get outta hand cause its so unique likes someone's house and garden.“

“Excellent! All fresh ingredients! Such an amenity to downtown Edina ! And walking distance from 🏠 home ! Ice Cream 🍨 😀👍 Very reasonably priced“

“Such a neat little ice cream shop“

“We just came through tonight and the guys were upbeat, friendly and soooooooo fast - with smiles for miles! Me and my wife were so impressed, and wanted to say thank you for helping create such a fun moment in this unprecedented time! God bless you and your staff! Again, thank you!“

“Love having this place in the community!“

“Our favorite ice cream in the Metro 🍦“

“Very good Iced cream the best of Minnesota“

“If you find yourself in Minneapolis/St. Paul and are even a little bit hungry- I highly recommend you try this cozy, friendly, delectable local restaurant. Every thing I ate and drank was amazing and the owner was a gracious and talented restaurateur. #tripadvisor and #lonelyplanet and #moontravel u should check this place out!“

“I love this place! Cherry Pie sundae is the best! A menu of affogati!“

“I got a free cookie on my birthday. I just have the app and showed that I downloaded. It didn’t even need to show my drivers license and then I bought an extra cookie for a friend I was with. The employee was helpful, friendly and I got my order within minutes. Very easy purchase“

“Thank you for standing strong! Freedom is FOR ALL“

“Well,..if you want a doughy, barely cooked sugar-bomb that’ll put any healthy person into diabetic shock, then this is the cookie for you. If your tastes buds have graduated past American grade school cafeteria fare, then you might want to avoid what this chain puts out. Bonus points for the self service menu screens cuz no one is going to help you and for the one employee declaring to another how they have the solution to end taxes.“

“Todo súper rico 😋 comida fresca y sus helados muy exquisitos“

“We discovered Cardigan Donuts on our way to the Target Center for the Bruce Springsteen concert via the City Center skywalk, so we came back the next morning. Holy delish! We’re so glad we did! We tried the Old Fashioned, glazed blueberry cake and the strawberry rhubarb filled Bismarck. All three were wonderful - beautifully crafted, genuine tastes of powdered sugar, fruit…just real ingredients. The staff were super friendly and we even got a discount for being first timers! Thank you, Cardigan Donuts! - Fans from eastern Iowa“

“Delightful spot with an amazing array of flavors. Our favorite date night stop!“

“OMG!!!! This places is magnificent, delicious, perfection!!!! Best ice cream, desserts, and amazing customer service! I had a freshly made waffle in a cup with delicious ice cream and oreo toppings.
Please stop by and you won’t regret it.“

“Long Live Waffle Cones!!!“

“🍦 chilli dog was very good“

“I just want to give a shout out to the team that’s working there today! They went above and beyond to make sure an order that wasn’t delivered by DoorDash correctly was taken care of. It’s hard being away from family during holidays but they took care of our delivery issue so my daughter still could feel the love from her family.“

“Loved the vibe and the decorations, the staff is amazing and you can't go wrong with some good ice cream! Great place to stop in and chill for a bit especially if you're in the neighborhood.“

“I had tried posting this review 2/22/2023, but not sure what I did wrong for it to not be public.

Short review- The staff are always friendly. All 9 flavors I’ve had so far have been delicious and I can’t wait to keep bringing friends to try Snowbing for their first time!
FYI: If you get Snowbing and Cruncheese at the same time you’ll need to pay from two separate registers. They’re right next to each other, so it’s no hassle!

TLDR-
I was so excited for Minnesota’s one and only Korean bingsu place to open! For those who don’t know, bingsu (빙수) is a milk based shaved ice dessert. Many people might have ice shavers to make their own, but it hits different when it’s made with the milk base.
Even though I live about 30 minutes away I’ve been almost 10 times. Snowbing has 10 flavors: Traditional Red Bean, injeolmi, strawberry, green tea red bean, chocolate, oreo, mango, watermelon, yogurt berry, and strawberry cheesecake. Checkout the photos included!

Flavors: The last time I went I finally tried the chocolate one, which I had been holding out on because I was worried it’d be overpoweringly sweet. It wasn’t! I would order it again in a heartbeat. I’ve gone with friends who’ve been worried about trying the yogurt berry because they didn’t want more dairy with the yogurt, but the yogurt is (in my opinion) mainly just drizzled on top for looks. We didn’t think it was too yogurty and really loved this bingsu because of the 3 fruits in it. I have yet to try the strawberry cheesecake before I’ve had them all, but can’t wait to check it off my list.

Pro tip: Eat the bingsu first, theeen get your cruncheese. If you eat the cruncheese first, there won’t be enough space for you to enjoy the bingsu! When I went my first time I was with 3 other friends. We got our own cruncheese then shared 2 different bingsus. I can eat my own bingsu bowl by myself as long as I eat that before any other food.

Hope you enjoy as much as I have! :)“

“had the peachy butter and the dulce de Leche so good. highly recommend“

“A HUGE thanks to Chris for being kind enough to personally reply to my inquiry just one day prior to the #pullingtogether event with an ingredients listing of the scrumptious frozen treats offered during the event. We loved the ice lollies #GFCF options; all were absolutely delightful! #hashtug #friendsoffraser“

“Super recomendado excelente servicio y todo bien rico!!!“

“Lost my comment. Try again. On May 19th a group of family members went to the Bloomington Culvers. We were celebrating my grandsons grade school concert. I was unable to go up front to order and my son asked if someone could help me. Jose (spelling) I believe was the night manager. He came back to my table and took my order. He was so gracious and kind. I so appreciated his help. I didn't have the right walker and it would have been difficult without help to go up front. I can't thank him enough. It is so nice to go to a restaurant and know everyone is so friendly and willing to make your experience a good one. Thank you Don and Misty for such a wonderful crew. Now if you only had your fried chicken back on the menu, my favorite. See you soon“

“Great course with lots of shade!“

“We were on a quest to find a new ice cream place and stumbled upon Treats via Google. I am so happy we found it! Best ice cream ever! Who would have thought mixing cereal with ice cream could be so amazing!?? Definitely coming back again and again :)“

“fantastic and imaginative ice cream flavors“

“Gabby who works here gave excellent customer service. She went above and beyond helping with an issue we had. She was very friendly, polite, and professional. It’s very difficult to find employees that give such great customer service and I hope her management knows what a valuable employee they have working here.“

“Kids and I had Freezix tonight for dessert and so yummy! Also Kelly (asked his name for this) gave us great service. When I left him a tip, the jar was so full - I must not be the only one impressed. He let me use both my coupons (which I wasn't expecting). Also we came about 1/2 hr before close, and he didn't make us feel rushed or anything (I know this is supposed to happen but doesn't at some places or with other people). Thanks Kelly!“

“Great food. Great staff. Great people to have in the neighborhood.“

“las nieves tienen un sabor muy rico y realmente saben a fruta y el precio esta muy bien. 100% recomendado que visiten y prueben“

“Absolutely delicious! You will not be disappointed with any of their unique desserts or refreshing drinks! 5 out of 5“

“We had such an amazing time and the gal working was the absolute sweetest. Thank you so much!! Definitely worth the stop!“
