“I recently bought the Earl Grey Tea and Berry Cornbread at my local Kroger store and was blown away! The richness and the flavor profiles were out of this world, especially the latter flavor of the two. It’s dangerous to know the Kroger store is only five minutes from my house. I’ll definitely be trying other flavors.“

“The snow cone flavors are amazing here. Fresh, great size, and delicious. One of the best West Indian snow cones I’ve had in NY. My kids and I love stopping in during the summer. We visit at least 7times for the summer. She also sells other items as well which you can take a look at while there getting a snow cone“

“Love this place. It is a hidden gem in the neighborhood. We ordered the pistachio and grapefruit. We can taste the natural fruit and some pulps in the grapefruit gelato.

“Stopped by Ralph’s Italian Ices and had a great experience. The ice was flavorful, and exactly what I was craving. What really stood out was the customer service.There was a blonde girl Sofi working who was incredibly friendly, patient, and welcoming. She made recommendations, kept the line moving, and had such a positive attitude that it made the visit even better. I’ll definitely be coming back!“

“The guy was the sweetest most caring person, he made sure to decorate my ice cream and put it in the freezer while prepping my other order of chocolate bread. It felt very nice going to a place that puts effort and care into the food and its customers. Most definitely will be coming back with friends and family’s price is super fair as well!“

“Amazing gelato. Highly recommend 🍨 😍🍧 😍“

“the original one and only ice cream Italian ice stand way before Luigi way before Guido's a local favorite quality products made fresh“

“Very nice cookies that taste splendid! However the staff could be a little more enthusiastic (referring to the ones that have worked there for a while, I get it can be tiring to put on a smiley face for each customer that walks in, but you are getting paid to do it and it makes their experience 10x better!). So, there are many new employees who are very welcoming and kind!“

“- "What a hidden gem! Michuacana exceeded my expectations with its rich flavors, generous portions, and warm service. I'll be back soon!

“I always purchased churros for my brother from here and I had to try the milkshakes! I've had 2 this week and they were delicious!! (S'mores and Brownie Milkshake) There's so many flavor combos to choose from. The young lady who works there is always friendly and the place is spotless. She's a master at that milkshake machine. I blinked and it was ready. Definitely a hidden gem here in Larchmont. My co workers at Larchmont Public Library are definitely going to give this place a try after being super jealous of me walking in w my mixed enerJy shake. ????

Kid-friendliness: It's a safe environment for kids to hangout and grab a milkshake or Boba tea. Always clean with tables and chairs inside or outside (summer always)“

“Crepehouse is honestly one of those spots you walk into once and instantly know you’re coming back. The food hits every time. The crepes are fresh, soft, and packed with flavor, and they don’t cheap out on the fillings either. The place is always clean, the vibe is cozy, and the workers treat you right. Whether it’s a sweet crepe, a savory one, or even just grabbing a drink, everything tastes on point. Definitely one of the best spots around and worth every visit“

“I always love coming here and would get my ice cream. They’ve even accommodated me when I got there super close to closing time. Saw that they make cakes and was so happy I decided to get my birthday cake from them this year! It was delicious. My whole family loved it. Some went for seconds. Couldn’t recommend them again. Next birthday cake will be from them! lol. I had the Oreo & strawberry cheesecake with Oreo crunch in between.“

“I love this spot. They have every variation of liquid and popping pearls you could think of and it all tastes great. My family's had the rolled ice cream and loved it. Sometimes they'll offer cute stickers and they even have a rewards punch card.“

“I've always loved Carvel. This location everybody is pretty cool. Always great times when I go there. My only problem with Carvel is that they STILL DON'T HAVE rewards points. Everybody wants rewards points, COME ON ALREADY CARVEL!! WE WANT REWARDS!!“

“HI, EDDIES IS BY FAR THE BEST ICE CREAM SHOP IN ALL OF NYC!! NOTHING COMPARES, NOTHING. THE FLAVORS ARE SPOT ON, GENEROUS PORTIONS, GREAT STAFF. NO WONDER ITS BEEN OPEN FOR 100 YEARS. WENT TO ICE CREAM SHOPS IN MANHATTAN, GOOD ICE CREAM BUT NOTHING LIKE EDDIES!! A DEFINATE MUST VISIT FOR ANY ONE, JUST CALL BEFORE GOING TO MAKE SURE THEY ARE OPEN, SOMETIMES HAS STRANGE HOURS. BUT WELL WORTH A VISIT, I GIVE IT TEN STARS!!!!“

“delicious shaved ice, portion size, swag and value for the price. also a plus that it's located in a cute spot in sea cliff. you need to check this place out when open. only draw back is that it's a little slow to get things made. but it's worth the wait on a summer day.“

“Great variety, excellent service. Half cannoli/half lily with nuts - DELICIOUS!“

“Gino was patient and took the time to explain to us all the different packages, in preparation for our wedding. After learning that my fiancé and I are both first responders, Gino extended his support and professionalism to us even more so! We are both looking forward to having him cater the dessert portion of our wedding, in addition to creating an unforgettable experience! Dolce and Gelato is the way to go!! Bravissimi!“

“Absolutely delicious! The flavors I chose today on a waffle cone: Pistachio & Piña Colada. The shop also has a small & nice sitting area in the front, with 2 swing benches, umbrellas, 1 iron bistro table & chairs.“

“Delicious ice cream!!🍦🍨🍧😊“

“solid fro-yo place! their toppings are fresh - all the cookies, cones, and cereals are crunchy. they have other dessert options as well. they run out of flavors sometimes - ask for samples!

parking is a nightmare though, you’re better off parking around the block or two blocks down at the fresh meadows complex“

“This place has it all such an amazing assortment of freshly made treats. They also have shakes, frozen, yogurts, and toppings galore. I always pass with my family as my kids love the frozen yogurt and the self serve that they can make their own delicious Sunday. I suggest you stop by give the place a try if you haven’t been there before. Thanks for reading my review you could also give me a follow on Facebook.“

“The service is exceptional - when choosing ice cream cakes, always willing to provide advice and take the time to personalize and make each one special. The ice cream cakes are freshly made here and by far the best. Ice cream and shakes are also great at this location. Finally, the equipment is well maintained and sanitary. Carvel does one thing - ice cream - and at Webster Ave it is done right!“

“There is not much that differentiates one carvel from another product-wise. However, the awesome customer service and friendly staff is what makes this one shine. We have a peanut allergy in the family and have never had an issue either.They also do a phenomenal job decorating cakes. 10/10 would recommend :)“

“A true neighborhood gem! This ice cream spot has an amazing local vibe — warm, welcoming, and full of character. They offer a wide variety of flavors, from classic favorites to unique and seasonal creations. Everything tastes incredibly fresh and creamy, and the portions are generous. The staff is super friendly and always happy to let you sample before choosing. Whether you're grabbing a quick cone or hanging out with friends on a sunny day, this place feels like home. Highly recommended“

“Amazing ice cream and amazing workers and owners!!! Definitely stop in and try“

“I got the mango/matcha soft serve! Needless to say, this was one of the most delicious matcha desserts I have had in a long time! I'm a matcha enthusiast and I have been to Maiko before but never had their soft serve. This was exactly what I needed to satisfy my sweet tooth! The flavor is sweet enough and the matcha really come through - I can compare the flavor profile to Chigi no shiro by Marukyu Koyamaen. Overall, this was a perfect dessert for an extreamly warm day in NYC“

“The cookie butter bomb is so good! I enjoyed it so much I’d definitely recommend this ice cream place! Very tasty!“
