“The frozen custard shake was amazing!! So good that I've thought about it several times since. I got caramel cashews & added chocolate brownie. Best shake I've ever had. Seriously! My son enjoyed the crispy fresh onion rings. The chicken sandwich was good as well. The accompaniments good. I liked that it was a chicken breast it just was plain not seasoned. Definitely had better sandwiches. My husband really liked his grinders sub with double meat. It was a fun outing. It's located near a playground so great fit a family night out. You go up to the counter & order & they bring your food in a bag to the table. It's very casual. It was pretty expensive $60 for a small amount of food but I guess that's inflation. I will definitely come back for a shake but may skip the sandwich.“
“You have to try their stuffed French Toast. I am still dreaming about the lemon cream cheese filling. It only had a hint of lemon, but a whole lotta good everything else. The blueberry compote was delicious. It was super busy and I can see why. I can't wait to take my son who lived in Paris back to see what he thinks.“
“One of the yummiest matcha lattes I've had in Utah! It is super good and the inside of the cafe is very cute. We got a latte a cake and the parfait and they were all delicious. The owner was so nice and friendly. Definitely recommend!!!“
“This is one of my absolute favorite dessert stops in SLC. The desserts are cute and obviously delicious! It’s always a tough choice picking what I want, but they do offer samples so that helps in the decision. The staff is always kind and helpful.Parking: There’s ton of free parking in the back which is helpful because doki doki is located in a busy traffic area.“
“This is an amazing family experience. Watching my 6-year old son get his over-the-top rootbeer float is something I'll remember for a long time. I got the horchata ice cream concoction with churros and caramel and it was heavenly. The burger was pretty decent as well. Fries were a little stale.“

“This was my first time at Alpha Coffee and it was an amazing experience! Ozzy and Logan were so helpful and willing to answer all my questions. Ozzy helped me when I couldn't choose between The Viking and Spartan coffee. He suggested The Viking and I can definitely say it was the right choice. I will most certainly be returning.“
“Nice little ice cream shop in a busy area. The smell when you enter the shop is amazing! There are a lot of different flavors and a couple of other options. Baked cookies a la mode and different flavored pops. I choose the “GOAT” ice cream. It was a really great mix of sweet and savory! There is an upstairs area with a lot of room and plenty of space for enjoying a quick treat out of the weather. I would suggest you give it a try if you are in the area.“
“1. Ignacio (waiter) is the best waiter I’ve ever had his kindness and patience made our experience perfect. He was on top of everything ( Always made sure we had our drinks & always made sure to ask us if he could do anything for us) 2. The food was made to order and really fresh. For starters the pizza is AMAZING. Also, both of the pastas we tried were mouthwatering and delightful. This is the best Italian Food I’ve ever had and I will always make sure to stop by whenever I am in Salt Lake City. ? ❤️“
“This gelato is truly unparalleled in Utah, and dare I say, in the entire US. Coming from Italy myself, I understand the challenge of finding authentic gelato abroad due to variations in ingredient quality. However, the owners of this establishment spare no effort in sourcing only the finest ingredients, ensuring an exceptional taste experience. Their passion for the craft is evident in every scoop. Crafting gelato and pastry is akin to mastering chemistry; even the slightest variation in ingredient quantities ( even 1 gram) can throw off the entire recipe. Yet, the owners' expertise, dedication, and love for their craft set them apart from any attempts at replication. If you long for the sensation of enjoying gelato in Italy, look no further than this establishment.“
“The frist time i came here was a couple months ago and i was satisfied i had got a crepa and it was bomb , I still go there and it’s like it was the first time I tested it because it’s so good and the prices are amazing, the owners are really nice. I really like this place and I do recommend it.“
“Crazy place with delicious gelatos. I love the coffee latte, pistachio and chocolate with hazelnut. Highlighting the macarons as well, crispy outside and creamy inside, amazing filling and not overwhelmingly sweet.Crazy decorations, every time I go there I see something different. It's a great place to sit, have a coffee and a good gelato. Frequently I see people going to work/study there.“
Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt • $
“We came here during a huge downpour because we saw the frozen yogurt sign! It was nice to get out of the rain, but even nicer to chat with the owner. The shop had just opened for the day and some of the yogurt wasn’t quite frozen yet, but she was so kind and fun to talk to. The frozen yogurt was affordable and delicious. My son can’t stop talking about how nice it was. We need to go back again for yogurt, curry and conversation!Parking: Parking lot is great! Plenty of parking.“
“My family went in to get gelato and the sweetest kindest young man named Jack helped us with such a friendly, happy kind energy!! You guys are Our whole family just thought how wonderfully delightful he was to have helped us! Give this boy a raise he is definitely an asset to your gelato!“
“My husband and I love this place! It’s one of our regular dessert spots. My husband has a sweet tooth so he loves these! The donuts are warm and soft on the inside and have a nice crisp on the outside. We like the churro, cookies and cream, and strawberry flavors!“
“It’s genuine and very good tasting. The ingredients are fresh and the pizza comes out hot. My only gripe is the portion. It tasted so good. I would literally have to buy like 2 1/2 pizzas to get full. That would cost me like $30 to get full. The pizzas are all personal size. I wish I could just pay like $13-$16 for a larger pizza that would fully satisfy my stomach. Atmosphere and service were good, not amazing but good.This is just a personal opinion but I think it would be awesome to offer some oil and vinegar for the crust to dip.I don’t want to sound too negative. I want to emphasize again that the pizza itself is tastes amazing and is fresh. I just want a bigger size!“
“Handel's is quickly becoming one of the family's favorite treat stops. The staff is always friendly and the ice cream selection is huge. They offer sample can't decide and the staff has great recommendations. You may show up and there's a line. But it's worth the wait and typically moves fast.“
“Came to this Shaved Ice place today to check it out, and it was amazing! I tried their newest gourmet specialty and it was FIRE!The girl was super nice, explained the menu and told me it was new, and if I loved strawberries and brownies, that was the one to pick.Not disappointed, will be back for sure! Can’t believe this place is locally owned!“
“Brought my daughter here and we ended up having a private tea party for just the 2 of us. Auntie Rae is so sweet and when i called they already had a party booked for the day and time we wanted, but since it was just my daughter and I, she went above and beyond and accommodated us and we had a room all to ourselves. The scones and lemond curd are AMAZING and the tea sandwiches, cheese and fruit platter was absolutely perfect! We finished our tea lunch with a few tasty treats. I highly recommend this location for a cute tea party or a one on one date with your princessKid-friendliness: There is a little corner for kids to play as you wait for tea (or lemonade)“

“This place was BOMB!!! The smashed biscoff donut was seriously CRAZY good, my husband and I wished we got another one. The Cinnamon Toast Crunch donut was actually really good too, super soft and fresh but the smashed donut blew my mind even more. My husband also got the PB chocolate shake, it was decent but would definitely get the smashed donut over it. The owner that was there was the sweetest and made sure everyone was taken care of! Definitely coming back“
“was out in a bout with the homies and first we hit up a shark place and ate poke? very nice then we thought, yk what how about we get adventurous.. came to monkey wrench because it said monkey and thought that would be fitting cause we ate at a shark place anyways, am getting distracted. SO GOOD absolutely delicious, very clean place and very happy people. very very nice! I recommend anyone who’s in the area to try it out and if you’re not in the area then be in? the area? <3“
“Definitely a hidden gem! Best rolled ice cream I’ve ever had. Fresh fruits in every bite and really creamy when it melts in your mouth. I also got a Mexican style drink and I picked a Monster Zero as the base. It was an interesting flavor that grew on me quickly. It had the chamoy on the rim with some salty spices and the drink was mixed with fresh lime and other ingredients. It was a nice balance of sweet, spicy and savory. Great spot!“
“I came about 30 mins before closing on a Friday night so that was on me, because it was super crowded. The servers tried their best to get everyone’s needs met but the poor things looked so tired and worn out from the crowd. I did get my ice cream though and it was delicious!“
“This is the best Mexican ice cream shop and it's all made in the shop! The service is always friendly and fast given how busy it can get. The prices are also great. The flavors are delicious, I don't eat a lot of dairy so the water based ice creams are a yummy option.Dietary restrictions: Great vegan options, the water based ice creams don't contain dairy.“
“So happy to have found this Filipino restaurant. Food was great pansit was amazing, Adobo was good. Absolutely loved soup (non spicy) even my mom loved it all and said we could go back and more anytime. I tried 2 new dishes both were with coconut milk and I will definitely be ordering them again. I am excited to try the beef stew next time.Service was great, samples were gladly given. She was very patient me it and if you can't tell I'm so excited to return“
“Good fro-yo! I love ice cream places and this fro-yo place is a fun date night! The service was okay, it's a very small location so there was nowhere for us to sit and we ended up eating in our car. I wasn't too busy when we went in the evening on a Monday night and it made a fun date night.“
“One of our favorite place for boba in the valley. Very friendly and welcoming to people of all kind ? ? the atmosphere is very chill & peaceful. The bobas are always so fresh and warm. My only complaints is the wait time to get your order whether it’s busy or not which is why I didn’t give it a 5 star but definitely the best !!“
“The cookies are good, but I always stay with the milk chocolate chip cookie. The thing the really bothers me is that they only make them every other week. That is the only reason I go in. I have asked the employees a few times if I am the only one who complains about it. I was told that they have complaints every day of the week when they don't offer them. I don't get it. If it's a fan favorite why only make them every other week?“
“I’ve gone there for years now. I work at the karate dojo right next to this place, and I have enjoyed every meal and drink they’ve ever gifted me with. (I paid for them of course) but they are truly praise worthy!I’ve loved all the experiences I’ve ever had there; and all of the workers I’ve seen there are amazing people. Truly worth 5 stars.“
“great atmosphere. I will admit i was weary at first because of its shared space with a restaurant, but it was casual, not loud, way more of a third space than work space. to me, and that is not a bad thing. they have espresso tonics on their menu and I appreciate that. the staff were really kind and caring with smiles. i like their design choices.“
“I think I've tried almost everything on the menu, & they're all delicious. I love that they do specials every day of the week. The place is nice & clean, & the staff is super friendly. If you're looking to satisfy your cravings I highly recommend this place.“
“This is seriously some of the best gelato I've ever had. You can tell they use high grade ingredients and the flavors are perfect amount of sweetness (not overboard like other ice creams). In addition, the staff is on it! The person who was helping us tonight was both kind and patient. He let us sample a few of the flavors and recommended the Panna cotta which was super yummy. Next time I'd get the Nutella and mint cookies and cream for a play on Girl Scout thin mints!“

“I was blown away by the work ethic of the employees - I saw 20 customers get service in under 5 minutes and no was ever idle. If they weren’t helping customers they were cleaning, all while wearing a smile on their face. Also the ice cream is delicious.“
“The truth is that I like that it is a place where you can cash a check or send money in a very easy way for Latin people.Although the restaurant has few variations of food, I can say that what it sells is delicious, the sale of sweets of Latin origin is excellent ?.“
“Ice cream is very icey texture here not that it’s a bad thing just less of smooth texture. Chocolate is decent super mild and milkier flavor. I do prefer a more rich darker chocolate ice cream myself but it was not a deal breaker. Cookies and cream on the sweeter side and milky vanilla base with Oreos. Cookie dough was also good vanilla base with chunks of dough (which they almost ran out of must be a big seller). Overall a decent scoop. I think the allure here is definitely the cute drive thru.“
“Great local coffee shop with private (booth) or shared (farm table) seating options. If you get there early you'll find a solid selection of pastries and other baked goods. I had the breakfast empanadas most recently, they had been heated, but still had cold spots inside.“
“The $9 price was pretty high, so my wife and I split a Cookies & Cream ice cream taco between us, and it turned out to be a great size for two. The ice cream is good but not phenomenal, and the taco was a fun idea but didn't add much, at least for this flavor.“
“The new location in Midvale, is a very fun and family friendly environment. I had an amazing experience and will definitely be coming back. I had amazing service experience with a very friendly team here ready to feed your sweet tooth. My desert (La Niña) was very delicious. If you're looking for a place to take some amazing and fun pictures, this is the place ! Great vibes“
“Decided to try this place today for lunch and was surprised how good the al pastor tacos were, also the salsas were absolutely perfect. The guy behind the counter was really nice and helpful! I assume he is the owner. Tacos in an ice cream shop. Why not lol!!“
“Very good place, their services and products they offer, they offer the typical things you find in Mexican snacks, much better than the competition around.The only bad thing about here that could be said is that it is also more expensive compared to the competition, a mangoneada, strawberries with cream and snow can cost you $30 or more, that's the only thing to consider.The place does need a remodeling but nothing urgent since you go as you go, but there is no atmosphere or any place to sit, everything is take away.“
“Ice cream ???? ???? ????Our family had the best Sunday, the Salt Lake City Valley now has an incredible place to enjoy great Mexican traditional ice cream and other sweets,I had the opportunity to enjoy the passion fruit, ceviche de pescado, tostylocos, agua de pepino y agua de guayaba and i can tell you it was amazing!!!! Everything was super yummy, and on top of this they had the grates service.This is a family owned business and they are all amazing. I had the opportunity to chat with them and are people of an amazing heart, love of people and committed to service,We came in on Saturday night and it was already passed closing time, but they greeted us and where willing to stay open until we were done, for us that was super special, therefore on Sunday we decided to go and enjoy of almost all the menu and we loved it.I highly recommend it, is a very clean, beautiful and comfortable“

“Today was my first time trying Handel's Ice Cream. I got the mango sorbet and my daughter got Smores Ice cream. They are very very delicious!The atmosphere could be improved. It was dead silent in the store. It was almost uncomfortable! I felt like I had to whisper. I think adding some music could really make it feel more fun, inviting and happy. It would probably be nice for the people working too!“
“I love how I can just pick my flavors of the week and have it delivered to friends and family for any occasion the day of with very little notice. I can also add a name/ a little note. It's such a fast and cute idea. Love Love love em ?“
“We had a reservation for a Japanese soufflé pancake and still had to wait over 30 minutes . It was good but not sure it’s worth the wait. Hot cocoa was good but had some kind of cold cream on top so it was not reallyHot. Cute place. No toilet paper in the bathroom.“

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Delightful Twist on Soft-Serve - Normal Ice Cream is a Must-Visit in Salt Lake City!I recently had the pleasure of visiting Normal, the charming ice cream store nestled in the 9th and 9th neighborhood of Salt Lake City, and I must say, it was an absolute treat for the senses!From the moment I walked in, I was greeted by a cozy atmosphere and the most delightful aroma of freshly made soft ice cream.

“Go there for the rolled ice & not bobas. Every time I’ve gone for their boba drink I’m never impressed, the bobas are never fresh and always frozen. But my husband luvss their rolled ice cream.There is not much seating so if they’re busy you might have take it with you or stand ? parking on the side but also limited but there is street parking if you can any ?“
“Churros are good but their dulce de leche is meh .. I particularly didn’t like it. But the churros by itself were good. The service is outstanding, the Venezuelan lady that was on the counter was really nice and polite, she helped me with the menu and gave me her recommendations, really nice lady. And lastly but not least, the atmosphere is really pleasant. It’s a small restaurant but they managed to arrange all the tables really strategically in a way that you feel like you have space to walk and it doesn’t feel too crowded. Very nice. 9/10 ??“
“At first, I was completely put off because their weren’t prices listed. I immediately felt I was going to be overcharged. I asked the sweet lady for prices, and she obliged happily. It was the most I’ve ever paid for a boba and I’ve drank them all over. Even on Waikiki Beach they weren’t so expensive. So, why 5 stars? The brown sugar milk tea with traditional Boba was the best boba I have ever had! It was so good I am considering going back tomorrow before I leave town! Good job, Hello Boba. Still too much $$ for boba, but goodness, it is tasty!“
“Best Shakes in the WORLD (Well, out of all of the places I've been). The shakes are especially good if you want chocolate ice cream as the base. They use chocolate ice cream, not vanilla with syrup. The fries are delicious, too. Crunchy on the outside, fluffy on the inside.“
