This little ice cream place is a total gem in the heart of Centretown. I totally love their Raspberry dipbars, coffee/brownie sandwich and of course, the Robin egg spring dipbar!The service is always lovely and welcoming. Plus, they are living wage certified!I slowly and surely became a regular. ?Dietary restrictions: Many vegan options!

Teeny tiny little spot on Bank that is always PACKED when I go! I recently went for the first time, after seeing lineups out the door in the summer months, and I really enjoyed it.Our server was friendly and knew lots about the flavours. I really enjoyed the Nourish waffle cone?

Great vegan ice cream options and vegan bubble waffles. The vegan matcha ice cream is my and my non-vegan partner’s favourite- wish it was one of the regular vegan flavours.Vegetarian options: Vegan ice cream options and vegan bubble waffles.

Service was fantastic, very friendly staff. Lots of delicious and interesting flavours to try. They offer both ice cream scoops and sandwiches. Prices are fair given the high quality ice cream. Will be back again.

Asian food inspired flavors using things like mugwort and tofu (the tastes really work well trust me!). I really enjoyed the White Rabbit (pure milky richness) and Calico flavours. The dark chocolate part in the Calico is perfectly deep, intense, chocolate. I appreciate that they list which flavors contain gluten because it’s helpful for celiacs (they list other allergies too like soy and have loads of dairy-free flavors)! They also do allergy scoops so yay! I will say, the portion is a bit small considering the price.Vegetarian options: They offer many dairy free flavors (there were 5 when I visited!) and DF ice cream sandwiches too. So many options.Dietary restrictions: Their menu has symbols of the allergens each flavor contains such as gluten and soy. They have many dairy free flavorsParking: Moo shu is located in downtown ottawa so there is paid street parking all around the shop (parking is free on weekends and pretty low cost other times!)Kid-friendliness: Kids will enjoy the many flavors to choose from that might even remind them of the cultural snacks and foods theyre familiar with! Theres cute merchandise and stickers available for purchase too which I imagine is appealing to kids.

Excellent ice cream. Great service and options. Less 1 star based on price. $24 is very high for 2 servings over the counter. Small and basically no seating.

My daughter took me out saying you are gonna love this ice cream. She didn’t fail me, I loved it. It was her treat, so I went full on choosing the bubble waffle with honey bun flavour with two scoops. Yummm. I enjoyed it❤️ My daughter and my son chose white rabbit and it tasted good too. The guy at the counter was patient until I chose my flavour. Kudos to him. The store was cute and small. They also sell few Korean skin products as well. The store is worth the hype I would say!!!

They are on the higher end in terms of prices but it’s absolutely worth it. The flavours are unique and yum, the staff is friendly and always answers questions.
