Pretty good. Thinking it could use a bit more “umph” but other than that it was great! ?

Tastings with real spoons? How classy!

I've heard so much about this ice cream, so I'm glad I finally got to try it.I really appreciate that they let you do half scoops so I could try more flavors. My husband and I split a double scoop waffle cone with:- Passionfruit Yuzu Mochi Donuts & Whey Curd- Pear & Blue Cheese- Arbequina Olive Oil- Strawberry Honey Balsamic with Black PepperFirst off, this is the only place I have been with waffle cones as good as Jeni's, which was a pleasant surprise.Weird flavors are right up my alley, so I was in heaven. The strawberry balsamic was hands down my favorite because the flavor was so intense. The passion fruit one would be my second choice.I would happily come back, but there are many other places I want to try while we're in Portland too. Too much ice cream to try is quite the problem to have.

Ice cream is good, the flavors are loud, but the atmosphere is limited and not very welcoming.

Exotic flavors and everything was too delicious to choose. The employees are also super nice, they literally offer to let you try every single flavor with no problem, since they’re all so unique.

This place is just fun. Even on a busy summer evening with lines out the door the staff proactively engage people still in line and expedite those who know what they want while the curious sample the offerings. Good selection of vegan options, and no skimping on the variety. Seasonal items are creative and fun!

Salt & Straw is always a favorite late night spot. The snap and crackle flavor from last month was amazing but Mace made our visit worth while tonight. Loved his energy and generous spirit with our sample chaos. All two of us.

Two seasonal flavors (Yuzu, Chocolate banana bread) were perfect to me. Always good place to me ?

Had a mixed experience at Salt & Straw. Tried the Chocolate Gooey Brownie (a total hit!), Chocolate Caramel Potato Chip Banana Bread, Malted Chocolate Barley Milk (vegan), and Coffee and Love Nuts. The latter two didn't quite hit the mark - the Banana Bread was missing the caramel and banana flavor, and the Malted Chocolate Barley Milk was a bit too salty. In comparison, the Chocolate Gooey Brownie was a better choice. Worth a visit for that alone! By the way, this place is crazy busy during weekends. Big shout out to the baristas who serve up ice cream super quickly and always with a smile! The photos I shared here were taken in the afternoon hours during the weekdays. Snagging a parking spot is quite a hassle, and there's a real snake-like line during weekends at Salt & Straw.

First time in this ice cream shop. fast and friendly service. They let u try any flavor u'd like with no limit! Price is reasonable. And perfect for the little kids cause they sell a kids homemade cone for around $5!

There's always a long line to order, but it's worth the waiting. Ice cream is of excellent quality, and they have many different types. I was disappointed they didn't have the Marionberry Habanero goat cheese as it was my favorite!
