Definitely hitting this spot for ice cream again. The owners are really sweet. The marionberry ice cream was so so good and so was the coffee ice cream. Both pictured.

Out of this world! High quality, creamy ice cream in unique flavors. The Golden Milk Honeycomb is exceptional. Talked to one of the owners and she was really nice.

Very delicious ice cream! We had the marionberry cheesecake flavor, and the golden milk honeycomb flavor. Both were delicious. Staff was super friendly. Glad these folks are in this neighborhood!!

Always a must-visit in Portland! Natural flavors, lightly sweet, and every flavor we’ve tried is absolutely delightful. Never disappoints!

One of the best ice creams I've had, not too sweet but extremely flavored. They have amazing Asian inspired flavors. I met the owner who shared her experience on her ice cream creations and it was amazing to hear. I had the golden milk honeycomb and rose City. 10/10

Amazing service and core menu options. Start off with a single scoop (wink).

The Dubai Chocolate Bar is rich - and shareable.

Must return for continued exploration of items at this wonderful place.

Ice cream is delicious. Falooda was a bit of turn off because my expectation of what falooda is back in India.

Kulfi is definitely our new favorite, go-to ice cream in Portland. They have flavors that you won’t see anywhere else in the city. An added bonus that they are owned and run by really kind people. Highly recommend checking out Kulfi.

Kulfi in one word is simply amazing. It is delicious and creamy and everything you'd want from a ice cream type dessert. It is a specialized Indian style, however the restaurant Kulfi has almost lost that original design. I originally reviewed the other location that is now no longer open due to them focusing all their efforts in this one location. The bad parts are simply the location as someone coming from the suburban areas of Beaverton and Hillsborough. There's nothing enjoyable about going all the way into Central North Portland just for this type of dessert. They have mastered their craft but that still doesn't make it any more desirable to go here. The perfect case in point is that I've gone here twice in 3 years. Where is it? The location was more amicable this would be a more regularly occasioned visit if not monthly even sooner than that. It's strange because the largest Indian population the primary targets of this type of dessert is in the suburban areas, especially around Hillsboro. Aloha and Beaverton, due to employment at Nike and Intel and there really is no other competition in the area that has this level of consistency and flavor. If they move their business to that area they would probably triple if not quadruple profits.
All that to say is that the location is fine. I personally don't like it. The actual options here are great, but a critique of them is that it seems like they're trying to be a smaller version of salt and spa, something that's so niche, but so premium that they kind of lose their focus. They're also competing with a place like salt and Sarah or 50 licks which doesn't even make sense to try. They already have a specialized needs market and their product really speaks for itself. If they would just Target their audience better and focus themselves, they would find that they don't have to compete in a location in Portland and they don't have to compare themselves to other successful businesses like salt and straw or 50 licks.
I would easily go return here again, but as I mentioned before, the location is not amicable for me and my family. If you are local or nearby or at all interested or it's definitely worth checking out even when it's inconvenient.

A delightful spot in Portland with such unusual flavors. Definitely worth a stop. They do two flavors with one scoop so definitely be adventurous!
