Went around 4 PM last week for a cup. They were out of most of the flavors that appealed to me and the place was totally dead. I ended up having a coffee flavored scoop and it really was just sugary ice crystals. I used to like this place but I won't be back. For that price, I could just buy a pint at Kroger of a flavor I actually want.

I saw someone post a picture of the basanti from the ice cream shop. The following day I was in the shop asking for a basanti. Although my brain said get the huckleberry, I got the basanti. There were generous amounts of pistachios, the rose water was so floral and you could taste the saffron. They have so many unique flavors I am looking forward to trying.
Two fins up for the nice folks that work here ?.

Yo, let me spill the tea on my trip to Sweet Bribery. I ordered a classic banana split, but what I got was a sad puddle of melted mush. Seriously, I've never seen ice cream look so watery—it’s like their freezer just threw in the towel! First time ever seeing that in an ice cream shop; it’s straight-up embarrassing.
They need to close up shop and fix their freezer situation because that’s just not cool. And don’t even get me started on the prices—way too high for a glorified banana soup! Save your cash and hit up a place that actually knows how to keep ice cream icy. Total fail! ??

Decided to use the Restroom at one of my favorite spots, after today’s rude encounter w/ some heavy set white guy it’ll be the last!
The ice cream is very good here, and everything is local. This is a great place to try unique flavors - the pho ice cream is savory and it actually works.
Apparently, they have wine nights as well (showing off the owners' culinary talents, as they used to do at Burger Guys), but I'm not sure how to find out about them if you don't have Instagram.

My friend got an ice cream sampler, and she enjoyed having that fun experience. For me, my mango, watermelon, and peach sorbets were delicious and refreshing, especially considering the humid summer heat. I sampled the pho flavored ice cream, and it frighteningly resembled actual beef pho. The amount of R&D and witchcraft it took to turn that iconic savory Vietnamese soup into ice cream is respectable and impressive, but I have to be honest... There's no way I could have more than a teaspoon of the pho ice cream. It was too realistic tasting, like a pho smoothie blended with vanilla ice cream and milk. Shudder. I'm still not OK, and I need a hug.
My wife and I were on our way home for the night and decided to stop by for ice cream and a milkshake. Unfortunately, we left with only a Topo Chico after I committed the capital offense of opening my drink in line. I’ll give her the benefit of the doubt, everyone has bad days, but it was undeniably an awkward and unique experience. The employee, a young lady, was so rude to my wife and I that we bought the Topo and went home. To be fair, it didn’t take much to change our minds; we have a beach vacation soon. I’m shocked how upset she was. This had to be a one off terrible day kind of thing. If management is interested this occurred on 6/26/24 around 9 pm, there was just 1 employee. It wasn’t a big deal but there’s tons of desert shops in the area that seem to pay their employees enough to smile.

Pretty standard flavor offerings, nothing too unique. Ice cream is not too sweet which is good. Texture could be firmer as it melts quite easily.

Only reason I gave 4 stars as oppose to 5 is prices. 6 bucks a scoop is very high imo flavors are really good.. ice cream is fresh. Kids loved it!

First time customer this weekend and was very impressed! The ice cream flavors were interesting and great quality. I had lemon, which was actually lemony! There are many sorbet options too. Karla provided outstanding service with a warm smile for my family. She really made the excellent ice cream into a whole vibe! I might be too old to know what "vibe" means but I'm referring to a very nice time at this place. Recommended
