“Delicious ice cream! Courteous and helpful staff. Best malted milkshake I've had in a long time. Black raspberry ice cream was also on point! Cute candy counter too. Free street parking and a small parking lot behind the building (a bit dangerous on foot in the parking lot FYI if you have little kids).“

“Great service, friendly staff and great ice cream!“

“Best ice cream shop in Essex County if not the entire state of NJ. You can taste the difference in quality, creaminess, ingredients, no artificial flavors. Small micro batches made with natural ingredients and real flavors. Great owner and staff. Very nice people who go above and beyond to help create a wonderful experience. Small space but the flavor is large. They are getting ready to launch their second storefront in Lyndhurst. Go check them out. You won’t be disappointed. Favorite flavors include: Strawberry Baklava Chocolate But all are incredibly good!“

“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….“

“If I could give 10 stars I would. Everything we have had has been an A+ The UBE ice cream is my family’s favorite. My 4 year old has been obsessed with it since she was 2. It’s a great family experience and the owner Chona couldn’t be a nicer person. She goes above and beyond for me every time I go in there. I wish every owner had the same energy, respect, and friendliness that Chona has. All the workers are extremely helpful and friendly as well.

“So I just moved here in this about a year ago. I literally live on the same block as DQ. I found the place walking through the quiet lovely streets and this place I wanted to try but because I work on the weekends and in the evenings. Now OMG, so authentic and great variety. It's so hard to get a place to make real clean Matcha and pure Pistachio Gelato right. There Dubai version was delicious as well. Rather travel here for yummy true Gelato.“

“I finally got the chance to try Crumbl Cookies and I’m so glad I was able to try the lineup for this week. The cookies were delicious, Kentucky butter cake and sticky bun were my favorite. The pink velvet and Banana upside down cake were tasty as well. The staff was nice, and I didn’t have to wait long for my order even ordering ahead. One of selections ended up being sold out and the workers decided to give me a free cookie. I’ll definitely be back, I can’t wait for next’s week lineup.“

“Great ice cream and soup!“

“Always delicious. I would highly recommend ordering a freshly made ice cream cake. Totally a different experience than picking up a frozen cake @ supermarket for not that much more. They need minimum 24 hrs notice 4 ice cream to set. Can also customize. I prefer no whip cream & instead get fudge & crunchies. Always fresh & delicious 😋“
