“A great place to sit for a treat after dinner. Decor is hip, clean and spacious and it smells like a cookie factory. Fresh baked cookies and brownies served with ice cream in a variety of ways. We got fast friendly service and the brownies were heavenly. Yes its just a sweet dessert but skillfully made so it doesnt just taste like a glob of sugar. One of our favorite dessert spots“

“By husband and I came here to get some ice cream on a date night. Everything about this place was great. The staff was friendly, the ice cream was delicious & it was very clean.The only negative is the over powering smell of cleaning solution, it hits you in the face the moment you walk in.Luckily, it was a beautiful night and we were able to enjoy our ice cream outside.“

It’s not often us Gf people get to have cake and I actually don’t care for ice cream. I rarely eat it but that has all changed thanks to Jeni’s.

“Caught our attention while visiting Nashville and ended up being one of our favorite stops! Super cute place, crazy creativity and marketing. Great place to meet friends and hang out. Cereal??? I mean, ya…but so much more! Met the owner and she was so delightful as well. Can’t wait to see this catch on and be franchised. Every detail was just perfection!“

“Allen is the best!! I really wanted a specific ice cream cake and he went out of his way to make it. His customer service skills are unmatched and he made the most adorable cake with very little direction. This man deserves a raise because he is one of the nicest managers I have ever met that truly represents his company in a positive light! 10/10 we will be back even though we live 45mins-1hr away!“

“This is THE dessert spot in Nashville. SO CUTE! Their cookies are as big as your face and AMAZING! I had the chocolate chip, oatmeal and the peanut butter with chocolate fudge. The cookie and brownie ice creams were also great. Friendly staff, cute shop. GO HERE!“

“The owner was very happy to serve us even though we accidentally showed up close to closing time. She offered us a couple of tastes and answered my questions about some of the names I did not recognize. So many choices and all of the recipes and ice cream itself are made by the owner and family so it’s truly a unique and delicious experience. I truly do not ever plan to purchase a store-bought tub of ice cream ever again.“

“Just exactly what you’d expect if you visited an authentic Mexican Ice Cream / dessert parlor!

The place is spotlessly clean, the ice cream has a beautiful presentation, the servings are plenty large, and the product is delicious!

The product is made on site, in a very clean back of building ice cream shop full of chest freezers, prep tables and lots of fruit and ingredients!

I was able to take a short tour and was throughly impressed.

I visited as part of a middle school field trip and the young adults were all smiling as they ate their treats!

Excellente!“

“We had my daughter’s birthday party here two years in a row. This is a fabulous place to host a party. It is easy and affordable. The staff really took care of us on both occasions. Would highly recommend this for parties or a regular visit.“

“10/23/25 1:10 AM

I literally just ordered, received, and ate this burger. It was a very ugly burger but it was the best tasting thing I've had from a burger joint in FOREVER. The cheese was melted through the thin patties and the fries I got were perfectly salted. Also with it being open so late, and probably a good portion of people are ordering right now if arrived in no time. Definitely would try more, I got a basic cheese burger.

P.S. I didn't go into this store so I gave it a neutral star.“

“The Vanderbilt location was so accommodating for my family and went above and beyond so my children who have a lot of allergies could enjoy a sweet treat. I cant say enough great things about them! Kuddos to the wonderful servers and willingness to make our experience safe and fun!! We will go back 100 times!!“

“We got one of your cookies for our 13 year olds birthday and turned out wonderfully in design and taste. We will definitely be back!“

“By far the best Elotes in Nashville! Not can elote!!! They now make there own salsa roja for the elotes! It’s the closest to the salsa roja from Chamoys in Ft. Worth m, Texas! Plus sour cream instead of Mayonnaise! Recommend this awesome family owned business!“

“This place is expensive, even for being in a hospital, but the milkshake, brownie sundae, and even the waffle cones are so good. Most of the ice cream flavors are really good and the kids working there are very nice. Having this available after a long surgery or recovery and especially for the kids is worth the $7 milkshakes.“

“yummy New York style pizza and ice cream! dog friendly patio too!“

“To the very kind worker lady who suggested I put yellow cake in my birthday cake ice cream and then proceeded to make me the most delectable ice cream cone I have ever experienced in all my days: May your pillow always be cool. May you miss every red light. May you find a $100 bill on the sidewalk. May you be given the keys to the city. Bless you to the moon, WILL be back xoxoxo“

“Love this place super clean and the employees were very nice

Dietary restrictions: They had had lots of options

Kid-friendliness: Nothing was harmful to kids and it was very good

Wheelchair accessibility: They had ramps that would help you get into it“

“Muy rico todo Buen servicio y muy amables“

“amazing pastries made from scratch“

“Best donuts in Nashville! Don’t miss this place!“

“Was able to introduce the carvel ice cream cake to my wife who has never had one before. Brought back great memories from being a kid and getting one for my summer birthday. We all loved the fudge and chocolate crunchies still layered in the middle of a chocolate and vanilla ice cream.“

“the iced peach tea here is a game changer. Super refreshing, perfectly balanced (not too sweet!), and made with real fruit — you can literally taste the difference.

And the burger? Juicy, flavorful, and stacked just right. Honestly puts most fast food joints to shame. The bun was toasted just enough, and the ingredients felt fresh, not processed. It’s the kind of burger that actually leaves you satisfied without the guilt.

Plus, the service was top-notch — friendly, fast, and genuinely welcoming. You can tell they care about what they’re serving and how you’re treated.“

“I love Crumbl cookies, for so many reasons. First of all this store closes at midnight so I have plenty time to get them, each week. The flavors are different, which makes me engage with them, they are super sweet, but perfect for my sweet tooth.“

“Awesome!! Best ice cream ever.😍“

“Awesome!!! I’ll recommend this place!“

“We came in for desert. I had mango gelato. Wife enjoyed caramel and we bought macarons to go. Cozy place. Take to go or enjoy coffee on a couch inside. Overall not bad but 4 stars only since i wasnt fond of the gelatos taste. But matter of taste and preference i guess. My wife liked hers. Food court is right above so you can come here after lunch or dinner for desert“

“big ol ice cream stuffed between two cookies“

“Great service and good ice cream 🍦“

“You can never go wrong with this candy store! It has so much variety! 10/10 recommended by me!“
