    This is my second time visiting, and the soft serve is good. Tried the matcha and it has a good balance and flavor. There's not much space in the ordering area, but there are a few tables in the shade out back. They also have a water station in the front. Parking is mostly street parking from what I can tell.

    A very cute little neighborhood shop selling fancy soft serve. They had some unique flavors and toppings - all had options in both dairy free and gluten free appealing to all. The vanilla alone was wonderful! The flavor and texture were stand out!

    Very rare that I write reviews, but I was genuinely disappointed by this place. I’d heard about it through word of mouth and decided to give it a try. The atmosphere was nice, but that was about it. The best way I can describe it is that it felt like the concept of soft serve ice cream rather than actual soft serve. I wasn’t anticipating that the majority of the menu would be vegan. That’s great for those who are looking for that, but as someone who enjoys traditional dairy-based ice cream, I found the texture and flavor lacking. The ice cream was more icy than creamy and surprisingly bland. I’ve honestly had better soft serve from Chick-fil-A. The waffle cone was thin and had the texture of a communion wafer. I didn’t even finish it, which is rare for me. The toppings weren’t that memorable either. Didn’t really make a difference if they were there or not. I didn’t come here for a mindful, health-conscious frozen dessert experience. I was hoping for something rich, creamy, and indulgent, and this just wasn’t it. Overall, I don’t think it lived up to the hype, and I wouldn’t return. Glad I finally tried it so I can stop wondering what all the fuss was about.
