“it is really good I definitely recommend“

“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!“

“Have been wanting to stop for the longest time. Finally did tonight. The food was fantastic! We were lucky enough to sit in the booth reserved for The Soprano Family!! Made the experience that much better. Nice to see the spot were the final episode was filmed but if we lived closer we would come back for the food!! So glad David Chase picked Holsten’s!!“

“7 scoops has the best ice cream and it is reasonably priced! The staff is so friendly and helpful as well. Orla is fantastic! I highly recommend 7 scoops!“

“What a pretty coffee shop with plenty of comfortable seating and simple, easy to read options for coffee and gelato. Came here close to around noon on a Sunday when the place was empty. The barista seemed friendly and just the right demeanor for a coffee shop.

Capuccino is just right in taste but lacked in design. This is not a deal breaker but just one of those cutesy things that I enjoy in a capuccino that sets one apart from the other coffee shops. Little snacks like cookies and muffins are also available to go with your coffee.

Street parking only in this booming downtown area of Rahway not too far from the train station.“

“Awesome ice cream all flavors never disappointed always so good“

“Danielle, the cake maker, is extremely accommodating and talented! She is wonderful with my daughter’s food allergies!“

“Always delicious and part of our every special celebration. Thank you for your amazing deserts.“

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

“very clean, easy flow for checkout“

“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. I strongly suggest to give Kubo a try you won’t be sorry.“

“Great place love their options and the tea awesome“

“Amazingly delicious ice cream served at a perfect temperature. No matter what flavor I try it taste delicious. Service is great too.!“

“Thank you for sharing your delicious ice cream with our Staff for Teacher appreciation!“

“I don’t usually leave reviews, but this place truly deserves it. Every detail from the warm welcome at the door to the unforgettable flavors shows passion and authenticity. It’s rare to find somewhere that feels both like home and a luxury treat at the same time. I love their coffee and I always try different desserts every single one has turned out delicious, especially after asking the lovely owner for recommendations! ❤️ You won’t just taste the difference here, you’ll feel it. A must visit spot that raises the bar for everyone else in the area!“

I also got a Elote with a Picada. The food was outstanding overall this place is a must come to for sure. I’ll be here again with the family.“

“Thank you for making the BEST cake!! I came in a few hours before graduation and asked to decorate the cake on each side. The woman who decorated the cake did an amazing job!“

“I own my own Ice Cream shop but after dining at this fine establishment, I might have to close my shop down because my ice cream can NEVER compete with this. I got the Low Fat Triple chocolate yogurt because I got to watch my figure and it was so good, it had me hitting my happy dance like that tiktoker John Loves Food in the middle of the whole store. Thing was so good it was practically orgasmic, Atmosphere? Great! Service? Great! The managers at this establishment were so good I wanted to hire them for my place. This is the perfect place for a date or if you're just single like me and craving Ice Cream.“

“Just a little too overly cautious with the covid-19 for me but the ice 🧊 cream 🍦 was good prices and service pretty decent“

“el helado de chocolate con oreo“

“Cute little spot in the heart of downtown Little Falls. The ice cream prices are decent, around $6 for a small. The quality of the ice cream isn't bad either. There is parking in the back of the building on Old Morris Canal Lane. Worth checking out and a nice addition to Little Falls.“

“On behalf of the Mount Pleasant PTA, We would like to express our sincerest gratitude to Guerriero Gelato for their incredibly generous contribution to our recent schoolwide event.

“It's Rita's, I mean come on, 5 stars is a guarantee. It is a snow cone, ice cream fusion. Only negative could be the fact you may have to wait in line a bit during peak hours because, well, it's that damn good 👍

“Awesome Gelato and Outstanding Service every time! I had the Affogato paired with the Hazelnut Gelato, and it was absolutely amazing. The Sorbetto Was Delicious!! The Cookies are also Good and make a great treat on the side. Definitely a spot I’d recommend to anyone looking to satisfy their sweet tooth!“

“Great ice cream, even while waiting on line there’s a great vibe. By the way, I had the cherry vanilla!“

“it was good“

“Lots of flavor variety. Wish the sugar free/ NSA flavors were listed on the menu .“

“Delicious ice cream with terrific service. The swirl cone was large and had a perfect mix of vanilla and chocolate taste. I chose rainbow sprinkles as a topping and it was a great choice. I have to bring my husband next time to try his favorite treat of all time chocolate milk shakes.“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A Hidden Gem in NJ – Salaam Ice Cream Parlor is a Must-Visit
it’s a full experience. The place is vibrant, clean, and welcoming, with a unique cultural charm that sets it apart from your typical ice cream shop .
The ice cream in question? rich, creamy, and bursting with flavor. Whether you’re into classic vanilla bean or want to try something new . every scoop is crafted with care and creativity. The waffle cones are crisp and honestly addictive.
What truly makes Salaam stand out is the exceptional customer service. The staff is friendly and patient. You can tell they genuinely care about the community and the people who walk up to get icecream.

Whether you’re a local or just passing through, Salaam Ice Cream Parlor deserves a spot at the top of your list. It’s more than a sweet treat—it’s a place that brings people together.“

“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.“

“Really nice, polite and courteous staff members. Very well recommended!“

“The first time here is the best in Staten Island. Lines to buy the icee's. You can eat the icee made with water or milk. I recommend the maracuya, coconut, cherry, and strawberry, all made with real fruit and have pieces of fruit in it. People from other places come to buy in pint sizes to take home. I wish I lived there. I would have bought several pints, but I was visiting.“

“I came here because I love the Haagen Dazs Ice Cream brand that you buy at the store so I decided to come here they have a wide variety of flavors and I got the strawberry since that’s my favorite Haagen Dazs flavor the ice cream tasted good but it was really hard and did not taste as good as the pint it was still really good but it’s expensive so I wouldn’t go out of my way to come here“

“I had vanilla ice cream in a cone with the chocolate dip. 1 thing I can say after all these years the ice cream had not changed!!!!“

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

“Great ice cream and soup!“

“Great people inside the counter with great service Thank you“

“I have not physically been to their store, but have watched their TikToks and live stream.( J did an absolutely stunning job with the cakes she was making today. She did happy birthday cakes, to streamers, to a gory unicorn cake that represented a Halloween theme. She is very fast handed and very detail oriented when it comes to making those cakes come to life! She also went over how she makes roses on cakes as well which as her least favorite part, was my favorite part. It was pretty fascinating and captivating learning more about the art of cakes! We also were able to see her role from cake making, to her customer service abilities. In my opinion she was pretty kickass! She is very spunky and very funny. Mike has cultivated a very positive workplace where they have fun with the job, which is what it should be about. My strongest advise is don’t knock it till you try it for yourself! Don’t listen to others opinions until you have witnessed them, their cakes, and other goodies for yourself. Not everything online is what is seems! Go check them out!(:“

“This ice cream place is not only delicious but they are our heroes. After getting ice cream, we went across the street to eat it. Our daughter left her most treasured stuffed animal on the benches. We didn’t realize for a couple of hours. We called the ice cream place, as we don’t live in town, and they immediately went out and rescued our stuffie. They had it waiting for us safely when we went back. 10/10 for ice cream and customer service.“

“Stopped by ZRolls Ice Cream in downtown Summit on a sunny Saturday afternoon—perfect timing for a cool treat after strolling Springfield Avenue. Tucked at 452 Springfield Ave., the shop has a vibrant, modern vibe with colorful signage and a window where you can watch the magic happen. It's a fun spot for families or anyone craving something Instagram-worthy, and the outdoor seating is a nice touch on good days.
Their specialty is Thai-style rolled ice cream, made fresh to order with customizable bases like vanilla or mango, plus mix-ins (think Oreos, fresh fruits, or mochi) and toppings. I built my own roll with a strawberry base, mixed in brownie chunks and strawberries, then topped with whipped cream and chocolate drizzle—$9 well spent. It was creamy, not too sweet, and the rolling process added that cool, theatrical element. My kiddo loved their Cookie Monster roll (blue vanilla with cookies), which was a hit for the vibrant color and fun texture. The staff was super friendly and efficient, explaining options patiently even during the lunch rush.
A couple of small gripes kept it from a perfect score: The wait was about 15 minutes since everything's made fresh, which is understandable but a bit long if you're in a hurry. Portions are generous but the price adds up if you're getting extras—could feel pricey for a quick dessert. Also, it was a tad sticky inside from the summer heat, though the AC was blasting.
Overall, ZRolls brings a fresh twist to ice cream in Summit—delicious, customizable, and entertaining. Definitely worth a visit if you're nearby, especially for the unique rolls you won't find at your standard scoop shop. Planning to go back for their seasonal flavors!“

“The young lady who took my order today was wonderful. Polite and didn't rush me and my granddaughter. Thank you.“

“This place has amazing Protein Shakes, delicious/healthy food, and healthy fast working Energy drinks. From The Food to The Drinks she makes everything from scratch, all the ingredients she uses is vegan base and nothing harmful towards the body“
