    A Las Vegas Must-Visit! If you want the absolute best and creamiest frozen custard you will ever have in your life, you need to get here immediately. The texture is UNREAL so incredibly smooth, rich, and thick compared to standard ice cream. The whole vibe of the place is fantastic too. It has a wonderful, nostalgic retro aesthetic packed with vintage signs, classic Coca-Cola memorabilia, and old-school license plates lining the walls. It feels like stepping straight into a classic 1950s diner. Whether you grab a classic cup or one of their layered treats piled high with whipped cream, you won't be disappointed. It is a total gem and an absolute must-visit whenever you are in Vegas!

    Some of The tastiest rich ice cream I’ve had in a long time, great customer service in a beautiful setting. Located in the food court at a Red Rock, I stopped by after going bowling. Never seen it before then, great selection and many options to choose from. I got a waffle cup and cookies and cream ice cream, it was a big portion and wanted to split it with my friend, so they separated everything for me. Slightly pricey but worth it!

    I love coming here. They take such good care and it’s always delicious. Everyone has a smile and is happy to help. The custard is absolutely amazing!! I get a chocolate Reese’s cup concrete with extra peanut butter sauce cause I LOVE peanut butter. It’s delicious and has become a regular (maybe a little too regular) thing at the end of my work week(mondays:)) to stop in and get my delicious, sweet treat. :) Thank you for taking such great care and having wonderful employees who go above and beyond to keep you satisfied and coming back with a smile!

    Been to a couple of Nielsen’s Frozen Custard- the product is always great, but there’s a lack of consistency. - Wanted pistachio on top of vanilla in waffle cone and was told it would have to be in a cup on the side because it wouldn’t stay on the cone….? And some of the kid cones came out without sprinkles on… 🤪 oh my - too many people were on shift and most of them seemed a bit clueless. That was a turn off. - The place is cute and unique. Definitely went during busy time! - The simplicity of the frozen custard is great! Maybe next time I could try something different 🤷🏻‍♀️
