“My son and I had such a great visit. The owners are so friendly and nice. On top of that, it’s the best ice cream I have ever had! I live 20 minutes away and I will definitely be visiting again soon“

“Delicious and great customer service“

“Thanks for the yelp elite invite. In little part of town is a hidden gem. Must have past it numerous times. What a great experience! It was my first visit at New Territories, a Hong Kong inspired ice cream and dessert shop. When I walked in, I was greeted by nuz one of the workers there. Warm welcome & big smile.She was super informative about the menu and so much fun to talk to. Then I met the owner , Pete. Explained to me to story of the store pretty amazing. They are famous for their bubble waffles. Was hot and fresh with along with vanilla ice cream & sprinkles. I had the double lemon float with lemonade and lemon sherbet as well. Store was very clean. There was about 15 flavors of ice cream to choose from. Definitely will be going back. Was able to snap a photo with Pete as well… “”OFF THE RECORD… he made another waffle no charge. for me before I left… let’s say didn’t make it home. :) oh almost forgot they have amazing fresh cut fruit açaí bowls… sorry pete… the waffles got to me….“

“I like ube, the Filipino yam with an otherworldly purple color, sweet-earthy taste and burgeoning world-wide fame. And, I like taiyaki - the traditional Japanese pancake in the shape of the auspicious sea bream. Therefore, I would like to shake the hand of the capitalist GENIUS who dared to mate them into ONE, SINGLE sweet treat, the UBE TAIYAKI! It's BRILLIANT: symbolic of earth and sea, East Asian + South East Asian, former colonizer engulfing the oppressed.... well, maybe not that last one. Irregardless, why would they do something so controversial, yet so brave? Friends, for OUR benefit. So grab one immediately, it's SOBRANG oishii!“

“Amazing and delicious - you need to go here as soon as possible!!! Best ice cream!!“

“My only complaint is that the lone worker today, when I was paying with a credit card (without tap) took my card and tried to use tap. Before she took my card I was going to put it into the card processor. When I pointed out that it doesn’t have tap, she (2x’s) typed my card information into the register screen and it was declined (plenty of credit was available because I got gas with it shortly after). I then used my debit card which she just took from me and again tried to use tap (again not a feature on that card either). She was finally able to put my card information for the debit card and it went through. If she had let me put my card in in the first place there would have been no problem with the original transaction attempt. I feel some of the staff might need better/more training on using the register.“

“The ice cream is delicious and there are so many good options! It’s just so delicious 😋“

“Great gelato! The flavors were very good and the gelato was delicious. The service was a little strange and not too welcoming, and they hesitantly gave me a sample. Other than that, great place and definitely recommend it.

There are tables inside and outside to sit at. I look forward to coming back to try other flavors and treats on the menu.“

“Love Mr. Moo's icecream it is spectacular 😋 one of my absolute favorite icecream places that serves fresh icecream. It's the cutest place inside this mini mall area. Very popular among Ridgewood residents. But I am also a big fan and have been coming here for years. I give them 100 stars for there creative flavors and ambiance. The value is so worth the trip. You will love it. Wonderful place👍 😋 will be back.“

“wow. after practicing long hours, creating music and bringing joy to world, tirelessly slaving over our instruments, ear drums blown, hands and body cramping fully, we need a place to relax. thus, we visit roll taid creamery, an environment so relaxing and so tranquil we instantly feel healed by the ambience alone. now the ice cream. the ice cream is absolutely delectable, hand curated by the amazing workers, or shall i say artists. such care and tenderness put into their work, you can truly taste the love and passion that they exude. it’s safe to say roll taid is the place to go.“

“Ciel Dessert is in a league of its own. I have a massive sweet-tooth, so i've had more than my fair share of dessert, and without a doubt this place takes the cake as the finest.

No artificial flavors or colorings, and everything is made on location. The articulate care and passion that Chef Jane puts into her craft is well-apparent, each pastry in the shop presents as a piece of art, and a master-piece at that. Check her resume on their website. She is legit.“

“Gelato Rice balls calzoni“

“Have ordered a bunch of ice cream cakes for birthdays after having one at a daughter’s friends bday. They have all been delicious! After 36 years of Carvel cakes, we have officially made the switch.

Reasonably priced cakes and haven’t had any issues.

One nitpick: They definitely need to figure out how to write better on the cakes, but there are high school students working there, I blame the curriculum not teaching script for years. So if you are particular about that…just get the cake with no writing. :-)“

“I’m Soo in love with this place“

“Decided to stop in after a tour visit to Montclair University and receiving a gift card for Christmas. Everything was delicious. We ordered brisket fries,cheese fries, smash patty melt, Montclair Blue Burger, build your own burger and 3 shakes. Everything was amazing including the burger buns (fluffy and airy). I wish they were closer to us, Old Bridge could definitely use a really good burger place.“

“Thank you for your support of Eastbrook’s class of 2021!“

“Hi 👋 This is the best Italian Ice you will find anywhere, and the NICEST family owned! XOX“

“The most amazing experience ever. Can’t say enough. Both Mary and Philip are the sweetest and were absolutely a pleasure to work with. I had a Valentine’s event on feb15th which needed to be rescheduled to the 22nd and I canceled the order last minute for 30 boxes of chocolate covered strawberries. They didn’t charge me a single cent. I got the same order for the following week and they did an absolutely amazing job. The BEST CHOCOLATE COVERED STRAWBERRIES EVER!!!! I highly recommend them and they have loyal customer for life ❤️❤️“

“Excellent Carvel store, they offer so many options for ice cream cakes - all readily available. They also take custom orders if you want a special design or specific image printed on the cake. Service is fast and seating area is clean. Also has a small outdoor area right up front. Seems to be a popular spot as there is usually a line the times I have gone but the line moves quickly. Highly recommend for a quick scoop or ready made cake“

“I stopped by the Ice Cream Station today to speak with the owners Greg and Song about their ice cream business. They are both so nice and we spoke to great lengths about the different types of ice cream and quality along with their business in general. They are both so warm and friendly and know the ice cream business well! What a great experience! 😀 Their ice cream tastes great and they have awesome flavors, toppings, and options! Go and see Greg and Song for some fantastic ice cream in a warm and friendly atmosphere! You won't regret it! 🍦🍦🍦HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!🍦🍦🍦“

“Stopped here super quickly due to my other half being in the surgery center next door. Not from the Clifton area at all. I wanted to grab a little treat for him. I got the banana pudding. Omg!! To die for. The girl (assuming owner) was super sweet! Very cute place! A little hidden gem for sure!!“
