    I love that this place is peanut free and people with allergies can safely eat here. I ordered the ube ice cream and it tasted more like vanilla ice cream with a lot of purple food dye. It had a bit of an aftertaste. I’m typically used to ube having a sweet, pistachio-like flavor. However, I really loved the creamy texture of the ice cream.

    I don't eat a lot of ice-cream but this place is the spot for some tremendous varieties. I'm not sure how they come up with the styles and flavors,but they're so good and made with natural ingredients and inspiration. I ended up with the UBE and it was out of this world. The guy scooping out the goodness was pretty cool in explaining everything about the different varieties. You definitely have to check it out.

Everything is fresh, homemade, and they always have unique flavors that make every visit exciting. I love coming back to see what new creations they have. The customer service is exceptional. Every time I walk in, they make me feel so welcome like family. The owner and the staff are truly amazing and always go above and beyond to make your experience special.

    Lots of unique flavors of ice cream and Cheesecake! I got Ube ice cream and Ube Cheesecake, both were delicious!! The lady working was so much fun to talk with. She gave me a small sample of each flavor of ice cream they currently had available. One section of the ice cream flavors are their regulars, the other section was the "rotating" flavors. Each one I tried was wonderful! When I'm in the area this is a must stop place for me now!
