“The food was impeccable. The shish barak stood out immediately — brought fully to life by Huda’s deft touch of spice. Among the appetizers, the bandora showcased heirloom tomatoes at their absolute freshest, while the rakkat achieved a rare and graceful balance between sweet and savory. The kibbeh naya is a must-try for anyone who appreciates raw meat.
Service, courtesy of Ismail, was warm without being intrusive, striking exactly the right note. We will be back.“

“Wow. Brand new, friendly, great business in a great neighborhood, Prospect Lefferts Garden. Would have been great if it was just good, but omg it is honestly the BEST ice cream I’ve had in Brooklyn. Awesome, creative new flavors every week. Yesterday’s was malted ice cream with chopped malted-milk balls. Also mint ice cream made with mint leaves. Another made with honey that also had some chili heat (forgot the name)—all amazing. Go now before you can’t get in.“

“Best tacos de cecina, enchilladas suizas and birria consome around. Oh and great micheladas too. Fun ranchera and banda music on the screens all day, nice vibes and friendly staff. A relaxed and authentic Mexican spot for those in the know. They also used to do karaoke on Friday nights, not sure if thats still a thing..“

“I could never complain about the food and quality. It’s insane. Really really good food. But the talking at the register, the slow line, the incredibly long wait for a sandwich is wacky. No matter if it’s clientele or personnel causing the hold up, you shouldn’t have folks waiting an hour for a sandwich.“

“We were in NYC for the weekend and I was told to check this place out. They definitely did not disappoint! Everything was delicious but now I need this in Buffalo….will always be on my list when we visit NYC!“

“Great ice cream with really unique flavors. Pricing is also pretty decent. The only hang up is the extremely long lines. While the wait time is annoying and would have made this rating 3-4 stars, I have noticed the lovely Spanish lady on Saturday is pretty quick and does her best to serve everyone in a timely manner. Even with it being as busy as it is she always pleasant and wears a smile.“

“This is the real deal Italian gelato. They imported an authentic gelato machine from Italy and the texture is out if this world.
Flavors are incredible and vary often. Some are more eclectic and grownup (olive oil with breadcrumbs, basil fruit sorbet), others could please kids of all ages (pistachio, coconut stracchiatella). It’s getting good word of mouth traffic right now, but none of the nonsense lines that would happen if any food critic ever decided to hype them up.
Enjoy while it’s still a neighborhood gem!“

“Sooo good! I wish it wasn’t so far for me, because I’d be here everyday. Because of the travel for me, I wish there was a number I could call to see if they’re opened or not. The last time I went, they were closing up because of the weather and were a bit rushy.“

“Fond memories, we go every Wednesday. But the female Mamma passed away and now my brother passed away. He went faithfully every Wednesday with his grandson. But now it's a Carvel Wednesday tradition. In their honor. Very friendly and loving place in Coney Island.“
“Fahad was so amazing from the moment i walked into the store he greeted me and was very attentive and helpful. The customer service is beyond amazing and the store is very clean. This is best cold stone i have been to and its my first time coming to this location. Extremely big and nice and omg it has chairs if you want to sit and have your ice cream. I do recommend visiting this location you won’t be disappointed.“
“Great Gelato shop in Brooklyn! The flavors were classic, and we tried a couple of flavors before landing on the Dulce de leche and the Pistachio. This was a good combination. Nice aesthetics inside with comfortable seating. Service was okay, and the price was a bit steep. $9 for a cup with 2 flavors.“

“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.“

“Absolutely the best ice cream I've had in Brooklyn. So far, we've tried grape nut, guava, and Irish moss. All amazing. Are the staff going to gush over you? Maybe not, but they will give you excellent homemade ice cream at a very reasonable price and in a decent size. The guava tastes like fresh guava, and the Irish moss tastes like Christmas: so good.“

“Peanut butter mala icecream😍 it’s super creamy with a deep flavor and little kick of heat from the mala. They also have several dairy free flavors, including some sorbets and a rocky road made with coconut milk. It’s a little bit on the pricier side (a small is $6.50) but theyre generous with the serving and the prices are typical for the area. Definitely worth it. A small lets you get one scoop, a medium is two, and a large is three“

“Great local frozen yogurt spot. We appreciate that there are always sugar-free flavors available. And usually a dairy free option. Most yogurt places around us only offer no sugar added, and are limited to one flavor if available. There also are sugar-free and gluten-free muffins. The scones are amazing. And there’s a bunch of frozen bagel options, cookies and brownies available. Plenty of toppings, for sugar-free they have chocolate chip chips and hot fudge. There’s also indoor and outdoor seating. Staff is friendly, fast and helpful.“
“I just left 'haagen dazs' and I’m still floating on a waffle‑cone cloud! 🍦. The dulce de leche is the stuff of legends, the service is warm and super speedy, and the mint chip makes every lick feel like a mini‑vacation. If you’re hunting for the ultimate ice‑cream spot in the city, this is it—no doubt, five stars all the way! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐“

“I have been wanting to try this cash-only vegan ice cream parlor and restaurant for a while now, and it did not disappoint. Scoops offers a wide selection of entirely plant-based ice cream flavors, including pistachio, cherry vanilla, cookies and cream, strawberry, and more when I visited this week. The ice cream tasted fresh, delicious, and healthier than the processed store-bought ice creams. I will be back for more ice cream, and to try their vegan dinner options!“

“This location has been excellent since my first time arriving here I came from Georgia to visit my mother and she sent me here to get some ice cream and from the first time I met the wonderful staff at this establishment I can't stop coming back! Although I only spent six weeks in New York it was worth my time I came to this location so much in the last 6 weeks I know I must have put on at least 20 extra pounds and it's not the ice cream that I love it's the staff here Samantha is amazing she really knows customer service she really knows how to be hospitable the ice cream is good but it's the people that made it even better. The other extraordinary woman here is a woman by the name of Diana I believe it was. She works in the cinnabon area and you can see her heart and her love in the way that she treats the customers I was sitting there eating ice cream one day and I watched how she just went above and beyond making the customer feel welcomed in this establishment. They have come to know me because I come here buying ice cream for my mother all the time and they even remember and they always ask about her it's beyond just a store it's almost like coming to see friends. Make it your business to stop at this location it is very much worth it the music is always excellent here it always has a great atmosphere.
This store should be a model to all the other Carvel locations out there on how you should treat your customers please utilize the staff to train other locations it will be well worth the time all of the people that are here are leaders and teammates and I've come to really like them and love them.“

“As a dog mom, I normally avoid taking my dog inside restaurants or places serving food out of respect for others. Usually, I leave him by the door or quickly put my head inside to place my order.
What happened here completely changed my experience.
Your staff immediately came to the front, welcomed both of us with kindness, and explained that everything was covered and that my dog was absolutely welcome inside. The amount of love and warmth they showed him honestly meant more than I can explain.
In a world where small acts of kindness can make such a big difference, this was one of those moments I’ll always remember.
Thank you for making me feel welcomed, comfortable, and appreciated. Because of how your staff treated us, this has officially become my go-to ice cream shop. The ice cream was great, but the kindness is what will keep me coming back ❤“

“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!!!!“
“Raffaella Gelateria-Caffetteria is a true slice of Italy in the heart of Williamsburg. From the moment you walk in, you can tell this place is all about authenticity and quality. Everything feels genuinely Italian—no shortcuts, no compromises. The gelato is outstanding, crafted in true Sicilian style: rich, creamy, and full of real flavor. Their dessert selection is incredible, especially the tiramisù, cannoli, and cassata siciliana, all of which taste like they were made in a traditional Italian pasticceria. Each bite feels fresh, balanced, and perfectly executed. If you’re in the mood for something savory, the arancini are a must—crispy on the outside, comforting and flavorful on the inside, just like in Sicily. And of course, the Italian espresso is excellent: strong, smooth, and exactly what you’d expect from a proper Italian caffè. Raffaella isn’t just a gelateria or a café—it’s an experience. A place where Italians feel at home and everyone else gets to discover what real Italian food and coffee are supposed to taste like. Absolutely worth a visit, whether for a quick espresso, a sweet treat, or a full Italian-style break.“

They made it very easy to order my selection of nuts and the presentation was beautiful. We communicated over WhatsApp and a phone call and the process was very easy. They were also very accommodating in terms of my friend’s food preferences. I’m so happy that I was referred to this business.“

“We visited Carvel, America’s Freshest Ice Cream in Rockaway, and had a great experience. The ice cream was really delicious and fresh, exactly what you’d hope for. The staff was also very friendly and welcoming, which made the visit even better. Overall, a simple but very enjoyable stop—we’ll definitely be coming back!“
