“Fair warning: be ready to wait in line. Every time I drive by, this place is packed!

A lot of the frozen yogurt is low/non fat which is not quite my cup of tea. However, I came in here one night and was helped by Omar, who was super welcoming and pleasant! He made great recommendations, I went with half cappuccino half chocolate froyo and enjoyed every bit. Thanks Omar!!“

“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.“

“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!“

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

Kid-friendliness: Highly recommended for kids - "I've never seen such a diverse range of ice cream flavors! Michuacana's got it all, from fruity to nutty to decadent chocolate. The quality is top-notch, and I can't wait to try more!"“

“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)“

“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!“

“The Bellmore Carvel is very special. The amount of love and care put into my son's birthday cake exceeded my expectations. Amanda is so talented and you can tell she is passionate about designing cakes. She even called me personally to ask if she could alter the cake a bit from the image I provided. It came out a million times better than the image! Thank you, I will only be ordering from you guys in the future!“

“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.“

“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.“

“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!“

“***** (Five Star) Review - The hubby and I love the Hicksville Sweet Shop! It is such a warm and welcoming restaurant/ice cream shop – were everyone knows your name! We reserved a table for Valentines Day and had a wonderful meal consisting of crab cakes, fried shrimp, French fries, vegetables and, for dessert, fresh homemade strawberry shortcake – reservations are rarely needed! Homemade ice cream and chocolates are also delicious! I can honestly say I never had a bad meal at the Hicksville Sweet Shop! Thank you Eva, Phil, Harry, Walter, Alma, Jeannie & Clair❤️e!“

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

“Favorite place to visit for a ice cold treat :) Quick service, always got my fav flavor in stock.“

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

“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 :)“

“Fresh and delicious. Will visit again“

“I ordered the rolled ice cream for my daughter’s birthday and we ordered the banana pudding flavor, the candy flavor and the Oreo flavored rolled ice cream. They were all very delicious. I highly recommend. You have options of toppings like cereal or chocolate chip or whipped topping etc and also for the type of syrup that you want on top .There are lots of toppings to choose from. I can’t wait to try them all?

Vegetarian options: Lots of vegetarian type options from the plant based ice cream to the toppings eg, fruit loops, cookie crisps, dark chocolate chips etc

Kid-friendliness: Cereal flavors for kids to choose from“

“Ice creams were delicious. Raspberry Rum Raisin, Grape-Nut, chocolate & their version of Cookie Monster flavors were great. Rich & creamy. Topping in the ice creams were overload, in a good way. My only 2 complaint is the older of the 2 young ladies kinds rushed us through the ordering process & wasn’t very friendly. The other young lady answered questions and definitely made me feel like I wanted to go back. 2nd no non-dairy alternatives for the lactose intolerant community. Overall 4/5 experience. Definitely an understated place. A must try.“

“So good!!! I won a giveaway and picked these up today!!! Definitely recommend!!“

“The best Carvel in the area ! What makes it the best is that they definitely have the friendliest staff. And they keep the place super clean. I take my daughter there at least once a week after her gymnastics class and on more than one occasion have been shown appreciation for our loyalty.“

“Some of the kindest, most understanding people work here.

It's a Coldstone Creamery, you know what you're getting into.

But the staff is exceptional, we'd been here more than a few times and always had great ice-cream. My keys stopped working and me and my fiancé were locked out of our car late at night in sub 20 below weather. The manager attempted to help us open the car, gave us shelter, and was so kind and supportive. They moved a bench inside for us, checked in and offered so much. They took care of us in more ways than not after an already long and hard day.

Outside of being a good place to get ice cream, I think any locals should support these people as much as possible.“

“I went there and there customer service was great such a cute spot even the bathroom was extremely cute definitely took some pictures the food was so good I made my own bubble waffle there prices were good and I’d definitely come back again if you are looking for a late night spot to get a treat you should definitely come here 10/10 recommend“

“I had a wonderful experience at Carvel thanks to the outstanding team working there. From the moment I walked in, I was welcomed with warmth and enthusiasm. One employee helped me choose the perfect dessert with great recommendations, another prepared my order with care and attention to detail, and a third kept everything running smoothly with a friendly attitude that made the visit even better.

Their teamwork, positivity, and commitment to quality made my visit truly special. If you're looking for great service and delicious ice cream, this Carvel team delivers!“

“The Best Ice Cream around! The store is always clean and the staff is very friendly!“

“Their location has changed since the picture was posted. They’ve reopened nearby and introduced a variety of new flavors. My favorite has been the acai bowl, but you really can't go wrong with their cream or water ices. Their banana shake is just as delightful as any of their other specialty shakes and ice creams. I believe I visit them 3 to 4 times a week.“

“I come here at least once a week and everytime I try a new flavor from the assortment of flavors in their store. The workers there are very ecstatic and always ask about my day. Great ice cream with different toppings. Everyone who gave a bad review is mid and obviously wrote their bad review on the wrong store. Keep up the great work!“

“Highly recommend!!! Amazing flavors and so many it’s hard to decide. Owner is so friendly and let my kids try many flavors. Reasonably priced too. We will definitely be back!!! 🍦“

“Love this place. We always try to stop in when we visit family on the island. Would have given it 5 stars, but they didn't have the flavor that I painstakingly waited 6 months for. You let me down Ralph. My puppy enjoyed his treat though. We'll def be back.“

“We booked Ralph’s of Great Neck for a party at an elementary school and they were very professional. Corey, one of the owners, gave a fair price quote, he provided kid-friendly flavors and a tabletop setup with servers. The kids had a blast! Thank you for being part of a memorable day and making sure the kids stayed cool and hydrated with the ices!“

“I had such an amazing experience at Ralph’s Ice Cream, and it’s all thanks to Mia! From the moment I got to there she greeted me with the warmest smile and made me feel like a valued customer right away. Even though there was a bit of a line she stayed calm, upbeat, and professional the entire time. She handled each order with care and patience, making sure everyone got exactly what they wanted without ever seeming rushed or overwhelmed.When it was my turn, I had a few specific requests for my order and Mia didn’t hesitate or get annoyed like some people might. Instead she listened carefully, gave great suggestions, and made sure everything came out perfect. The way she took the time to double-check and make my treat exactly the way I like it showed how much pride she takes in her job. On top of that, she kept such a positive vibe that it made the whole experience even better something you don’t always get at places that are super busy.
Honestly, workers like Mia are rare. She goes above and beyond just taking orders she creates a whole experience that makes customers want to come back. She’s respectful, hardworking, and truly cares about doing her job well. I hope Ralph’s management sees how lucky they are to have someone like her on their team. Mia absolutely deserves recognition and in my opinion a raise for the excellent service she provides! Thank you once again to management and Mia!“

“Yummy and refreshing Love the cisterns and the ice together!!!!!!“

“I had an issue tonight with an online order. It was not received at the store when I went to pick up as their system is slow sometimes. The owner was very accommodating and made our treats right away, assuring me that I wouldn't be charged again. The 2 staff members working with him were so nice and put our order together super fast! I was impressed!“
