“Wonderful ice cream for humans and our canine baby! We stopped for a treat earlier, tasted coconut, German chocolate and raspberry ice cream . Fantastic fresh with natural flavors. Friendly service and especially catered to our boxer Izzy.“
“This place is a hidden gem and features some of the best ice cream/ gelato I've ever had on Long Island. I got the campfire crunch swirly, and it was delicious. Ice cream was super cremy and fresh, and they put the perfect amount of blended toppings in the swirly.The shop featured about 20 gelato flavors to choose from and also had a nice expresso bar/candy station in the back.The service was nice and friendly.Overall, this place is a must try!“
“This place is a little diamond. Went for the first time last night and WOW. It took me back to Italy. They don't use the artificial flavors you'll find at all the local icecream shops. It's REALLY pistachio and hazelnut and chocolate. The flavors were absolutely incredible and smooth. Not too sweet. Just perfect across the board. No little bits of ice like you get at other spots where the ice cream has been sitting. It was all fresh. And the owner was a lovely Italian woman who was so happy to share her treats with us. They were very kind and patient as we struggled to pick a flavor (because they all were AMAZING). They also have an assortment of tarts and the icecream cakes that looks like the best ice cream cake you'll ever have. They are absolutely beautiful! If you love proper Italian gelato or ice cream this spot is gonna be your new favorite.“
“First time here wanted to know what the hype was about, got a 4 pack.2 chocolate chip... good though chips didn't taste like semi sweet, they were sweet.1 donut.... good...tasted just like a melted donut1 brownie, good.They are good cookies, limited on base choice as the others selections are toppings on the base.Crunchy on the edges, top, bottom and moist in the center. Very addictive.They hold up well in the freezer and can be eaten straight from the freezer as it doesn't turn into a brick.It's a 5 dollar cookie which is too expensive to enjoy frequently.Parking: Its located in a strip mall“
“Since ice cream is my favorite food group, I had to check out Dolce back when they opened. It has become a staple in our household. My fiancé and I sneak out without the kids knowing so we can grab a cup of gelato as a weekly ritual. We take the kids sometimes too lol. Danny and his staff are always friendly and accommodating and the gelato is always fresh and delicious.“
“Get the 4 scoop sundae, good for 3 ppl R $11. That's a solid steal! Replace pineapple with berries and have a mix of nuts rather than one.Downside is the hot fudge melted the ice cream so it was like eating soup.Keep the ice cream solid and visible rather than underneath the whip cream.Cool old blast to the past parlour look. Good chill time.“
“Rolled ice cream is always a fun treat! They had lots of flavor options and I chose piña colada. All were $8 and came with unlimited toppings! I didn't realize at first the toppings were unlimited or I would have gotten more! I saw that they even toast marshmallows with a torch for you upon request as a topping. Ice cream was delicious and the staff friendly. They had a few tables inside and a bench outside to enjoy your ice cream. Parking could be a little tricky, as it was street parking only but we were able to easily find a spot around the corner.“
“I stopped by go nuts for sweets because I needed a quick gift for a last minute bday party. The lady was super sweet. She had me pick out the items I wanted and she put it all together for me and made me this basket looking so cute for the birthday girl. As I waited, I also ordered a tiramisu bubble tea. I was hesitant at first because I didn’t know how that would taste but I’m so glad I did!! The drink was super delicious girl let me tell you! I will definitely be back, and I promise if you go you’ll love it too(the kids will love u for bringing them) ? thank you for the lady who took care of me!“
“Delicious treats for the discerning palate!! The flavors are subtle but powerful. The owner and staff are delightful. Great way to end a date or to mark the end of a crazy workweek. They're open until 10 pm, so you can satisfy that late evening impulse for something sweet.“
“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 etcKid-friendliness: Cereal flavors for kids to choose from“
“What a fun and tasty summertime treat! If you "but it's just a snow cone" you are mistaken this is much softer, fluffier and definitely a Snoball! This is the kind if treat once took my first spoonful I was already plotting when I could Come to eat it again and why did I only get a regular sized when I should have gone BIGGER. There are over 100 flavors to pick from and additives and more so truly you can go wild. I really enjoyed coconuts tutti fruti, tigers blood so far. I wish I had one sooner. Lots of young people working behind the counter but they had a smile on their faces 5/5 stars!“
“This location reopened Summer of 2021 after repairs from a car that plowed into it a few years ago. Now surrounded by bollards to (hopefully) prevent another car from closing the store again. They added a few new flavors of soft-serve. Better than ever.“
“Carvel is literally a taste of my childhood.Whenever a birthday or another event arose that "required" a cake, we always got a carvel cake with the famous crunchies. Well to this day, my childhood carvel still exists in the same locale and i enjoy their cakes and other icey treats just as much. And Wednesdays are especially the day to go if you get the urge, because they are 2 for 1 on sundaes.. CANT BEAT THAT!“
“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 :)“
“Such a cute old school candy store. Lots of types of chocolates and other favorites.It was a bit hard to find as the sign in the window is quite small and the bigger "DMV Services" sign makes you think you are in the wrong place.“
“Such a cute little spot. If you happen to be in Long Beach, this is another place that you must pop your head in and try if you have never had alcohol infused ice cream. I normally frequent the Manhattan location and have also use their delivery service from time to time. Today was my first time at this particular location being that I was out in Long Beach I ended up buying a pint of the rosé infused sorbet.Normally I get the raspberry lemoncello or the mango margarita flavor. My all time favorite is the watermelon Hennessy infused sorbet (limited edition)I haven’t tried the rosé yet but they had a blood orange infused flavor that I did sample today that was pretty good and the manager even mentioned that it pairs well with Prosecco.Definitely will visit again while summers is still here“
“Wow! Amazing ice cream! Stopped here on my way home from the beach and will definitely return. My husband had the cherry vanilla and my son had Cookie Monster. Both raved about their ice cream. I tried the chocolate soft serve vegan and it was better than regular soft serve. It actually tasted like chocolate and didn't melt right away. I wish I lived closer to this place. It would be my go to! Don't pass this place up. It's worth it!“
“Mary's Irish shop is truly a gem! From the people to the food everything is great! I've had the Irish breakfast which brought me write back to Ireland and recently had their BEC sandwiches that were absolutely delicious! Trish and her team are amazing and make you not want to leave. We can't wait to go back!! High recommend!“
“The owner & his staff , especially Brianna , go above & beyond ! I’m always last minute & Brianna has accommodate my special orders with a smile 2 x’s in the last 10 days !!Thank you for making my granddaughter happy with her Bluey cakes !“
“Stopped by the other day with the family for a evening treat. Super friendly staff and the place is very clean!!! I also like the fact that they have tables inside and outside to sit and have your ice there. Instead of leaving with your ice and it melts away while you drive home. LOL I recommend this location !!!“
“I came upon this shop while looking for a quick bite to eat. Service was fast and very friendly. They have tons of options and everything is good quality. The shop was also very clean. There are chairs outside to enjoy your frozen treats. Overall I definitely recommend stopping here for dessert after dining at one of the many restaurants near by.“
“I got an ice cream cake here for my daughter's 5th birthday and they did a superb job! The cake had a beautiful Cinderella graphic to match our party theme. It completely exceeded all my expectations. Would come here again and again for cakes!“
“Best Italian ice spot in elmont/ franklin square. Prices are good, and they have many flavors. They also serve regular ice cream and milk shakes.Kid-friendliness: Plenty of flavors to choose from and they offer free samples, so you and your kids can try different flavors until you find one you like. They also have a small cup size for kids that's an appropriate portion for them.“
“The workers are very nice as well as the soft served creamy Ice cream. The service is amazing however, sometimes the company runs slow when like they were lowdown on workers, during my experience had to wait 30 minutes for someone. The atmosphere is ok it could use some work to really represent what carvel looked like back then in the 90s/late 2000's overall 15/10Vegetarian options: none :) i hate em vegansDietary restrictions: Ask for low fat ice creamKid-friendliness: Very much kid frinedlinessWheelchair accessibility: Accessibility is easy just as k for a accessibility bathroom“
“I have never been to Chip City before but I heard some ladies talking about it at work. So of course I HAD to go! I went in on the night before Christmas Eve to the store in Merrick and the sales associate was so sweet, helpful and easy to talk to. There weren’t many flavors to choose from as I went late in the evening. Everyone at dinner on Christmas Eve said these cookies were better than Crumble!“
“I've been coming here for more than I want to admit and makes me feel old. I'm going to keep this very honest in respect to using common sense/speculation/as well as responding to some of the comments on here. We haven't been there in quite some time...surprised to see the place redecorated. My wife loved it...I understand it. I'm one of those people that walk into a pizzeria and see faded red Formica tables, benches and dated dingy decor as a good thing. I was never bothered by aesthetics as it seems seasoned and perfected like the food im about to indulge in. The old international cafe had a plethora of food, nothing that wow'd you BUT was consistently good even though they had a great variety. The freshly made waffles, variety of gelato and fresh whip cream needs no review. People who complain about noise should just stay home with their mask on. You are talking about an open place restaurant that is a staple of a community for decades. Why in 2024 are people so miserable to see others so happy. Place is jammed back...what do you expect it to sound like? People complaining about kids are the same $hit parents who rather hand their kid a iPad instead of letting them socialize. When we go there we expect it to be busy, loud, kids be kids, great food, great service and pay cash. With new owner ship comes many things and one them was the menu. We were thrown off since we were expecting our usual order. A lot of their items on the menu can be easily replicated at home. When we go out to eat we only order what we don't make for the most part. My wife ordered their Chicken Tenders which was made fresh as they were chicken cutlets cut down. I thought it was OK my wife was not happy bc the crispy bread outside came off the chicken itself. We also got wings and beer battered onion rings. Onion rings were great and wings are wings. We don't deep fry in the house for many reasons...we never ordered anything deep fried at the old spot either. Got their loaded potato skins which my wife enjoyed as well. Reviews about the new whip cream being OFF in taste is correct. Gelato tasted the same to us which was good. Price seemed fair for what we got compared to others places we have gone too. Best of luck to the new owners and staff. I honestly don't think we will be back bc happy wife happy life Our waitress was PHENOMENAL“
“The only place in the area to go when you're craving Italian Gelato! Their gelato more closely resembles gelato I've had in Italy, compared to other places who do not specialize in this.The staff and owners are helpful. Even though there are a million signs saying "only two samples per person", they were kind enough to give us more samples for our kids when it wasn't busy. The area is not the best for me, but if it's convenient for you, I'd definitely check them out!“
“Amazing staff at this Carvel!! The cake design person helped create two beautiful cakes for my twins birthdays. One was Minecraft theme and the other Soccer. The grass looked so real on both cakes everyone asked where we got them and couldn't believe it was an ice cream cake. Thank you again!“
“We were strolling along the boardwalk and saw this gem! The food was unbelievable! I loved being able to order lunch for breakfast, food is fresh- staff is so kind. We will definitely be back! We ordered the big Kahuna burger and old bay fries. Definitely not a 4.3* place. Try 5***. Beautiful views!“
“Marvel's ice cream is soft and delicious! I've been to both locations and wasn't disappointed. Over the summer I really enjoyed their pistachio and strawberry swirl at their beachfront outpost. The staff is nice enough. There no real "ambience" since they're an outdoor establishment- order your ice cream and go. You won't be disappointed!“
“The best fro yo on the island! Don't forget to stop by on a Tuesday or Saturday for BOGO! Bonus is that it's right across the street from the train station. Perfect for grabbing a sweet treat before taking the train back to penn station.“
“I'm delighted to share my experience with Batch! The delivery was remarkably swift, and the cookies exceeded expectations. Each bite was a perfect balance of soft and chewy, showcasing high-quality ingredients. I highly recommend this shop for anyone craving delicious cookies delivered promptly.“
“It is a great fit for walking, running, cycling or walking around with children. If you want to spend a pleasant day breathing in the ocean air, come to the ocean.It is a great fit for walking, running, cycling or walking around with children.

“This ice cream shop is one of our favorite spots in EM. My friends travel from queens to get ice cream from here. They have flavors that we love Guava, Passionfruit, Mango, Tamarind, etc. Everything that you can't find in a normal spot. If the flavors that I listed are too much, it's ok they have normal ice cream too. The service is individuals, but the staff are very attentive to your needs. So don't rush them.“
“Nice find on a hot summer day. Adventurous menu with ample flavor combinations. Compliment your sweet treat with fluffy waffle sticks that pack a crunch. Service was standard, employees had low energy or seemed to not want to be there so that could improve. Me and my fiancée would go back to try some more for sure“
“Woah, I've lived in RVC for basically my entire life and I somehow did not know that this place existed. Such a cute and clean place and I'm not exaggerating when I say it was the best frozen yogurt that I've ever had. The woman who helped me I assume was the owner and she was extremely friendly and helpful. They just got a new regular customer!“
“The end of Spring has arrived and Rita's is now open! They open every year from spring to end of summer and does not disappoint! I tried their strawberry icee mixture with vanilla custard. Very tasty and refreshing. Not to be bias I went this past Sunday again and tried the mango icee flavor with the vanilla custard. There are many flavor options of icee as well as custard to choose from and the prices are very reasonable. They are located directly next door to Nathan's in Oceanside. When in the area, stop by and give them a try..:// you will not be disappointed! And don't forget to tip the hardworking high schoolers working there“
“Favorite place to get ice cream, treats, desserts, grab and go meals. So many keto selections. The owner is an absolute sweet heart. We ordered an ice cream cake for a birthday and we were so happy we chose this place. There have keto ice cream.“
“This place is a gem! I have food allergies, and the wonderful staff checked the ingredients on each product, the cones and every flavor I considered. I wound up getting a waffle cone with toasted coconut and rocky-road. The rocky-road was delicious, with nice sized bits of almonds and marshmallow cream. The toasted coconut was a recommendation from the young man helping me. It was amazingly good! I definitely will be going back!“
“ALWAYS!!! Great food ,great service. The menu items are plentiful and everything is good. They have a big party room which is how I got hooked on their food and service going there for my Niece's sons christening.This is a great place for friends, date night , family, and party'“
“I go with my wife to this great restaurant quite a bit! This is my favorite spot to grab a bite. I visit this place regularly. The food is just great, the team is welcoming and the charge is reasonable. I enjoy meeting in this spot for a rich meal.“
“The employees have been welcoming and friendly at every visit. I get the same order every time but I've been charged varying prices. It has been brought to their attn but there's never really a solid explanation as to why the price changes every time.“
“I had the best experience at Carvel today! My server-extraordinare Jessica gave me world-class service and kindly helped me pick out the perfect Fudgy the Whale cake! Def coming back! Her boss Amanda was stellar as well! Best Carvel in Nassau!“
“I come here once every few weeks to buy a bucket of the Cookie Craze and it's delish every time. The owner is usually working, she's so sweet and she packs the bucket full. I've gone to other Ralph's and they don't seem to have as much cookies in their ice cream. Always friendly staff and always quality ice cream. Do yourself a favor and go get some!“
“Can I give this place 6 stars? Sorry, it's just too good. 16 handles gives you a variety of options for an amazing cup of frozen yogurt and another variety of options for toppings that you can't top. They have black and white cookies (What?!?), fruit, candy like gummy worms and gummy bears, and so much more. They also have a cute seating area, with many colors and decorations. It's just so fun in 16 handles...and out! They have a seating area too, just as colorful as the inside. Treat yourself at 16 handles today. I bet you'll love it.“
“Nice ice cream spot. There’s soo many different flavors of ice cream and toppings. The workers are friendly and the prices are reasonable. My only complaint is that it was very hot inside the establishment. The food and ice cream was good. My kids & I will return to this ice cream shop.“
“Not sure why these other reviews care what the store looks Like seriously? Your not eating the store your getting ice cream to go..Sounds like a bunch of "Karen's" ( like omg) for sure don't like it there don't go!Ice cream is the best around I couldn't care if it was on a stand outside get it go home and eat it..Guys trying to make a living!“
“Chocolate Mousse Chip creme ice is my fave. I get CMC 9 out of 10 times. Caribbean Splash water ice is outrageous. Can't go wrong with Cotton Candy ice cream. Parking sucks and Merrick Ave sucks but it's Ralph's! they can do no wrong!“
“I'm so surprised I hadn't written a review for Marvel before, especially since I have been here a couple times because it's pretty close to my sister's house. It's definitely great value compared to a lot of other ice cream shops. Since the last time I was there they've added more flavor options too. When I went recently, I ordered a small cup of half pistachio/half dulce de leche with the Marvel mix on top (rainbow sprinkles/chocolate crunchies). It hit the spot, although it did not seem as creamy as it was the last time I had it. Service was ok, not the friendliest though. If I'm around the area, I may pop back.“
