CJ's Italian Ice & Custard

Found this place in Facebook and knew I had to make my way to Vegas. It was super bright and colorful, but the facility wasn't the cleanest.. floors and bathrooms needed serious attention. However, staff was great, my ice cream was delicious. I'd definitely return when I visit Vegas again

Omg you guys, must try! Love the concretes, I am obsessed. Always come here when I’m in Vegas. Peanut butter concrete is 🔥! They have a huge selection of flavors and styles for offerings, nice cute seating area, and great service. Clean looking spot, I highly recommend it!

Took my family here and as you can clearly see two large cups one of them not even full compared to the other.... Talk about being cheap on portion sizes. Why order a large to get almost half of the cup. Won't be returning here.

My family and I have been coming to this place for years. It’s a nice dessert spot with a variety of cold treats. Their gelatis are a favorite and it’s great that you can pick a combination that tastes best for you. This last time I went, I got the apple pie concrete with was delicious. The custard was creamy and it had actual pieces of apple pie put into it. My only complaint was that the tables were dirty so we had to wipe ours off ourselves and the place was a bitter cluttered at the time. Otherwise, Cj’s is a great dessert spot to check out!

We love this place. Deliciousness! Pleasant server. Nice environment.

Oh, my God, this ice cream place in Las Vegas is one of the best! It’s not just their custard, but all the different combinations they can make, plus with the personality. They are so funny. If you follow them on Instagram, you know what I’m talking about! Place is really cute and they do sell merchandise! Read the signs. I wish I could go here in Vegas everyday.

I went here to try the custard ice cream with very high hope, but I was disappointed. The custard consistency is good but the flavors leave a lot to be desired. The chocolate leaves you with an aftertaste as well as the vanilla custard flavor. They do not use the real thing , it seems they use powers or artificial flavors and possibly corn syrup because of the after taste. The attendance and customer service is great, and they do have a wide selections of cones to serve your ice cream in, as well as gelato, which I did not tried. Is easy to park and is nice that they anre open until 10pm.

Soooo happy we stopped here during our stay in Vegas. My husband got Italian ice and I got the gelati with Italian ice and vanilla ice cream. My new obsession and I wish we had one of these back home!

Definitely Made Me Lick!!!' ;) Went there around their closing time and it dint seem like they were closing anytime soon with 2-3 more customers in line to order and they were happy to serve !!!!' The vibe of the place was really cool to hangout on a good summer day!!!! Friends and couples seem to be having a good time around! Ordered a banana boat and it was delicious, especially creamy vanilla custard with pineapple jam, the other side of the boat was chocolate with strawberries- the chocolate custard had a hint of bitterness, two very different flavours and garnished with hot fudge & peanuts which added extra flavour!!!! The staff were really helpful and sweet! So many different flavours and they also had side setup to shop their hoodies and T- shirts which definitely made it loud on promoting the brand !!!

I want to give this place a better ranking because the selection is amazing and the product sells itself, thank goodness for the owners! Because these kids that work here are just not friendly! My friends and I came in here the other day with 3 people working behind the counter/kitchen area. Not one said hello, welcome, anything! I'm like hello can I order?? Reply from girl, yeah. This place is small and cute. Fun merchandise for purchase and such a menu to choose from!!! Just don't order an $8 vanilla "milkshake".... You couldn't suck it through them big straws! It was like eating vanilla ice cream in a cup. The honeydew ice is yummy! And that mango ice thing they do....on point. Keep in mind they're pretty big, I always share mine:))

As much as I wanted to love CJ's Italian Ice, my visit left much to be desired. The service was painfully slow, making me question if they had forgotten my order altogether. Opting for the spicy Sandia, I was met with disappointment. Unlike the vibrant, fresh fruit flavors at Joe's Italian Ice in Anaheim, this one tasted processed and lacked that homemade charm. Considering the underwhelming experience and the steep $8 price tag, I don't see myself rushing back anytime soon. CJ's needs to step up their game to compete with the quality and service offered elsewhere.

The staff memeber was as sweet as sugar. We were the only customers and she let us take our time. We sampled about six different flavors between the two of us. Everything was nicely labeled. The space was clean and smell very sweet from the freshly baked sugar cones. It had been over a year since I had used any of my points and it turned out to still be attached to my phone number so I had a total of 10 off a purchase but our order was only $9. She suggested to use the $5 off coupon instead. After my purchase I had an additional $5 off for my next purchase. We look forward be going back.

Service and price point is good. I ordered a small cherry Italian ice and was disappointed that it tasted like colored sugar water. My friend ordered green apple and that one was super good! I'm thinking it could be an off day for the cherry ice. I'll come again in a few weeks and hopefully the cherry one will have more cherry taste.

Nice little spot. LOTS of options... almost overwhelmingly so. Staff is very friendly and knowledgeable about their product. Very popular because they had a very steady flow of people the 30 minutes or so we were there. Deducted a star because, although the have non-dairy options, i was a little disappointed that there wasn't like an Almond Milk type frozen dessert that would pair well with a cone or other toppings. Other than that, it was really good.

The custard is not overly sweet. What you put in it though... You order, it's made, and they call when it's ready. Easy peasy!! I've went a couple days after Xmas so their holiday decorations were still up. Made it very festive in there. Plenty of seating, if you choose to eat it there.

Decided to try this place last minute out of convenience. The quality of the shaved ice was on the lower side with the flavors being not as strong. My partner and I were pleased though to see the variety of flavors offered. We opted for the blueberry horchata and ube shaved ice gelatti. The custard part was pretty good, and helped to add more sustenance to the shaved ice. Service was quick and easy, lots of parking available and indoor seating available. It was also no where near crowded when I went on a weekend afternoon.

It's in the 40's here in Vegas & I just couldn't shake that CJ's craving. We went simple this time and had the coconut dipped cone with vanilla custard on a regular cake cone & cantaloupe Italian ice with vanilla custard. All super good. While I enjoy the dipped cones, I was missing that Italian ice. I'll be back to get that delicious Italian ice. Yum. Keep doing your thing CJ's.

Oh, my God, this ice cream place in Las Vegas is one of the best! It's not just their custard, but all the different combinations they can make, plus with the personality. They are so funny. If you follow them on Instagram, you know what I'm talking about! Place is really cute and they do sell merchandise! Read the signs. I wish I could go here in Vegas everyday.

Went there with kids for an ice cream, and expect something like creamy chocolate icecream but actually all their ice cream is vegan and gluten free. If I was looking for a vegan ice cream I could probably search the whole city before I find a spot. But it's good to know. They have variety of scones option and ice cream option. We took Coton candy cone which wasn't that much fresh I should just go for the regular plain scone. We also get chocolate, tangerine, Thai tea and Captain's America flavor and Captain America was the great choice. Everything else was average. This spot is so busy there is always someone coming while we we're sitting outside, inside was super cold and crowded.

Just love this place. Better than ice cream. Not much to say but it's a great place to stop by for a cold snack.

Wow! Best Italian shaved ice and soft serve in Las Vegas! The shaved ice is so fresh, smooth, sweet (or sour or tart), and refreshing on a super hot summer day! Every flavor of Italian ice that we tried was soooooo good-- flavors: Bahama Mama, Captain America, Sour Patch Kids, Black Cherry, and Tropical Fruit. You can get up to 2 flavors with the small size, up to 3 flavors with the medium size, and up to 4 flavors with the large size. The portion sizes are very generous for the value, and their customer service is great. Grab a friend and an extra spoon and check out CJ's! You'll love it!

Best custard in town! Anytime we feel like a sweet treat, CJ's is at the top of the list!

Sadly the girl who "served" us wasn't helpful at all! It was our first time here and I told her I didn't know what to do because there were so many options and her reply to me, "oh let me know when you're ready". Thanks for the help chick. When we finally decided and sat down to enjoy our treat, we were very happy with the flavors. The banana fosters is the bomb! Despite the lack of service I am going back to try the other flavors!

Honestly I only came here for the chocolate cowboy hat topping because my sister saw this place on tiktok and wanted so badly to stop by here just for it sooooo here I am with her taking pictures with my Ube gelati and her vanilla chocolate soft serve with our cool cowboy hat decorated desserts. Also don't forget to do a Yelp check in! You will receive a 10% discount when you do that! Not sure how long will it last but take advantage of that! This place had a huge variety gelatis to soft serves so it was a bit overwhelming to know what you want so I suggest planning ahead of time so you don't hold up the line haha.

This place is disgusting. Trash everywhere on the ground, garbage cans over flowing, parking lots littered with trash debris, the inside walls, tables and even the t-shirt rack sticky with dried ice cream that looks like it's been there for days. We threw away our treats not even halfway - could be our flavor choice, so won't blame them. But the sanitation and cleanliness of this place was horrible - Yuck. Won't be back!

Ok... I got completely obsessed with this cotton candy Italian ice, am I am PICKY. I've always seen this place when I drove by and thought it was interesting and when you actually go inside it's interesting haha. I came around Halloween so maybe that's why their decorations were cute. My mouth is watering just thinking about this place ! Staff is friendly Flavorful Italian ice

Found this place on Yelp when we were j. Vegas. Wanted a nice treat to end our night. You can sample the ice flavors and I recommend getting the small size is perfect to share with 2 adults. I loved the honeydew it was so good!!! For sure I'll be back here again if I'm near vegas

Our second time here and would come more often if we lived closer. Customer service was great they were patient and answered all our questions. I went with the Oreo Cheesecake Crumble and it was fantastic. Not a large area to eat inside but for my family of four it was just fine.

This place is amazing. Good prices and tons of variety. Only thing keeping this from 5 stars is that they're pretty slow. Even when no one is in line sometimes I stand there for a while before anyone takes my order or even acknowledges me. Once they finally do though, they're great!

Great customer service is great. Especially the person that helped me the first time I ever came here! They had so many flavors of Italian ice and I couldn't choose, but she was so patient and let me try all the ones I wanted. I highly recommend the sour patch Italian ice. They even offer bigger containers you can take home, which I love! I'm not sure if any other places in Vegas that offer that, which is a plus.

This was my first time here. I got the lemon Italian ice which was delicious. The cotton candy Italian ice is super sweet. I tried the mango Italian ice and it was super sweet. There isn't a lot of available parking. There's an outdoor patio where you can sit and enjoy your purchase. They offer pints to go and ice cream bars. They have a variety of ice cream cones that are coated in Oreo, Rice Krispy Treats, Butterfinger, Reese's Pieces, etc. They also have Dole whip and custard. MAKE SURE YOU BRING CASH. Otherwise, you will be charged a fee for using your debit or credit card and even Apple Pay. I deducted 2 stars for charging a fee for using Apple Pay and credit and debit cards. If you're on this side of town give them a try. I wouldn't make a special trip to go there.

We were super excited to try this place but this is a one and wish i wouldnt have. There are definitely better options than this place. The service was H O R R I B L E, the ice cream sandwiches were old and tasted like shit. Dont waste your time or money for the garbage they serve or the way the employees treat you like garbage. Never ever again. **Update** The concerned owner reached out over my experience and says it will all be addressed. Impressive in today's world.

This place has so many options you won't even know what to order. Took my 10yr old cousin & she loved it . The staff was friendly and patient and the decor is super cute inside . I don't eat sweets often but I'm for sure coming back for more custard .

Came from the Bay Area to visit family and found this place. Located on the corner of a semi-busy street, a good amount of parking and has a bit of sitting inside and outside. There are a lot of options so the menu can be overwhelming. I really like how they have a bunch of different types of ice cream cones. Really good service, the young gentleman that helped me was super nice. They definitely top your cup off with ice (i asked not to) and the ratio to custard is pretty solid. I got a Bobalati with Thai tea ice, vanilla custard. The ice was just ok. The boba was meh, it was hard but that was a given considering it was sitting under the ice. If it was honey boba.. this thing would've been 1000x better. But i really came for the custard. Hands down, this place has the best custard I've ever had. It's super full, creamy, thick and surprisingly not overwhelmingly sweet. It was just so darn smooth. I thought it was so good, i only ate half and drove it 10 minutes back to my parents crib just so they could try it. And it was so thick it barely melted by the time i got there (it was nighttime ~8p so it was starting to cool down). Overall, I'm here for a quick trip and I'm 1000% going again.

Absolutely love this place. I'd bet you anytime a refreshing Italian ice on a warm summers day would just about make anyone happy. If you want a bit of fruity flavor Italian ice mixed with custard, then you will love it too! There are always the standards like mango (my favorite) watermelon, green apple, coconut, really just too many to list and always updating. You can get a concrete, Sunday, dole whip, spicy whip, Chamango, boba, and gelato (my favorite) as well as many topping to choose from. There are specialty creations like rice crispy treat, blueberry crumble, cookie butter. There are four locations around the valley. You can find merchandise as well as your favorite Italian ice flavors by the pint. Service is always good, seating can be a challenge on a warm day, but remember there is out door tables as well.

We decided to take advantage of Yelps Check In to Cool Down ongoing event - and thankfully CJs has a BOGO 50% promotion going for us!! Super delicious desserts - we all got something different and everyone loved theirs! The service was great, very friendly and patient. Small location and from what I saw they do more of a grab and go type of situation than a sit down and enjoy... seating was cramped and limited. We were further from home, so we took a seat where we could. There is some outside seating, unfortunately they had umbrellas less than half opened so no one could use that table. We like CJs and all the options available for everyone!

Nice place. Good dessert & nice outdoor seating area. Inside is nice but feels a bit claustrophobic when it's busy. Over all nice place will come again!

Lots of amazing choices. Gelato, DoleWhip, Italian Ice and custard. Amazing dipped cone choices as well Staff was friendly and had a great greeting

accidentally found this place on my drive home a few weeks ago, and have gone every week since! soooo good! tons of options, so many flavors, the twirl soft served ice cream is my favorite on a sugar cone (boring i know but its so BOMB!) my husband is a little more adventurous and has tried various sandwiches, blizzards (i know thats not what they are called but it's similar) OH! and the italian ices are absolutely 10/10 recommend!

For a cool summer treat CJ's is the place to meet! During the Covid years CJ's was a lifesaver! Their Variety of ice cream, gelato, and Italian ice is over the top. I Especially like the Keylime pie. The service is friendly and energetic, and if you need a recommendation they're happy to provide one! Do yourself a favor and stop by this little shop of tasty treats!.

Great customer service - everyone here is really friendly. Ordered the strawberry cheesecake crumble to go. I received my order in a timely manner. When I got home to enjoy my ice cream, I can say it was amazing! Strongly recommend

This place is great the ice cream is fantastic they have a ton of toppings to choose from I highly recommend this anybody with kids or that has a sweet tooth

If you live in Las Vegas then you know that CJ's Italian Ice & Custard is one of the top dogs when it comes to ice cream in the city. My fiancee and I decided it was time for some ice cream so we decided to come to this location since we haven't been before. This location is a good size featuring a full couch setup in the back along with some chairs and outdoor seating if you want that. One thing that CJ's does better then anyone else is make cones. These things are fully loaded with sprinkles, oreo's, peanut butter cups, and a few others that randomly pop in and out. I was mostly craving just the soft serve ice cream, but once I saw the the cone covered in rainbow sprinkles...well, it was settled, I needed both the cone and some broken oreo's on top and called it a day. The ice cream was delicious and certainly did exactly what I wanted it too (fix my sweet tooth). The ice cream here is really rich and the twist option was a great choice. Overall, CJ's Italian Ice & Custard is a super easy place to run in and out of with some ice cream and always a super pleasant experience. The ice cream here was really good, the staff was great, and I was a super big fan of the cone the ice cream was in. Like ice cream? Come here, plain and simple!

5 stars for the female employee that served us 0 star for business Charges 50 cents per card transaction, not sure if it's due to total being under $10, I still find it wrong to do that to customers regardless. I don't support businesses that practice that. Almost $10 out the door for a single scope of ice cream on a cone and still have the audacity to charge 50 cents for their business fee. About 5 in 6 Americans pay with cards. Thats about $2.50 of charges per 6 customers that walk in their door. 50 cents is a lot to charge per swipe, either this business is going overboard ripping their customers off or their merchant sucks.

I would say by far my favorite ice cream spot WOW, their ice cream is so rich and tasty, I highly suggest MUST TRY!

Both the ice and custard here are so good. I got the gelati small size with ice and custard. My server was so helpful and patient and let us try several samples. I ended up getting half/half of the mango and lemonhead ice with vanilla custard. My husband got the mango chamoy with pineapple dole whip custard. Yum! We'll be back to try more flavors heh

Plenty of flavors Decent serving size Fun add-ons Staff remains calm even when overloaded

I wanted to love this place, it's right around the corner from my parents house and my relatives rave about the frozen custard. I'm a fan of frozen custard but not at this place. Custard should be dense, creamy, and velvety. I'm not sure if it's their recipe or the machines they use to churn the custard but the flavor is not rich enough for me. You should be able to tell the difference between custard and ice cream. The menu is packed with lots of fun options for customization, from cereals to candy to sauces. I prefer frozen custard concretes where they blend the custard with toppings of your choice so you get the toppings in every bite down to the last spoonful. I've tried the Lil crisp sundae and the Cookie butter concrete. Both were just too sweet, and I would not recommend their chocolate sauce it was very cheap tasting for $6.

Still great custard, terrible customer service. We went in for the social media promotion BOGO. The cashier decided it wasn't actually a BOGO, but a discount on the 2nd instead. We won't be back. Edit: Owner reached out to apologize for his employee's ignorance of the special. He offered to refund the difference in the cost for our troubles. We added one star for him reaching out because that was kind of him & he assured us, in his message, that he would speak to the employee.

The customer service is the best. Staff is helpful and friendly. A large variety of options here as well. The Italian ice is so good, I love the surprise flavor. The concrete is perfection in a cup with fresh ingredients. There is some seating both inside and outside. There are also pints for sale to go!

We tried CJ's on a little family ice cream night and opted for the pre-packed flavors. We tried the rocky road and apple pie flavors and both were phenomenal! An added plus is they stayed fresh in the freezer for at least a week. A new family favorite!

Yet another visit to my favorite ice cream shop CJ's custard. On another HOT Vegas day. The ice cream and customer service was great per usual. This particular location has a bunch of apparel that you can purchase. From sweaters to long/short sleeve shirts, hoodies and hats. Yelp currently has a check in to cool down promotion going on from May 13 to May 31. So when you arrive be sure to check in & you'll receive a buy one get one 50% off coupon. Stay cool & enjoy.

Yummm! This place is to die for!! The custard was so amazing. My husband got the strawberry cheesecake and I got the rice crispy treat. Both of our ice creams were awesome. My only complaint is that the outside seating area could be cleaned. This place is smaller so when it is busy it's hard to find a seat. However, the employees were super nice and helpful. Definitely a good spot for something sweet during summer!

This is my second time coming. Ice cream or custard rather is GREAT i only gave 4 cause today. My sister got her soft serve come first before our orders (i feel from efficient standpoint it's better to serve the custards in the cup first cause obviously cone would melt faster in this heat) Second it took hmm 7 people to get their gelatin/custards before I got my cupcake concrete but overall place is great and im patient just for those that ARE NOT. maybe this review will help the team be more efficient (: Thank you.

I've been here twice now and each time the staff was super friendly, the space is clean and I enjoyed what I ordered. It does get a little crazy sometimes with all the young kids, and it's a rather small space that easily gets filled up fast. Definitely worth it though!

This place never disappoints my cravings of ice cream and Italian ice. Excellent soft served ice cream and great service. The place is nice and quaint inside. My only complaint is that the don't keep up with cleaning the seating area. Multiple times I have gone there with my family and there were open tables and were still dirty from prior people that sat there.

My favorite ice cream spot in town. On this particular trip, I got the S'more. The S'more is a great ice cream treat that is refreshing on a hot day but isn't too heavy. The service was fast and the toppings were plentiful. I have also ordered the Samoa on another visit which I 100% recommend if you are looking for something more creative and decadent. Overall, a great stop for some inventive ice cream treats.

When craving an after school treat and you always drive by CJ's it's time to stop in and give it a try! My son and I popped in on the way home for an impromptu visit around 3:30 on Tuesday, January 11. It was empty inside which gave us plenty of time to really browse the menu. The indoor was cute and fun, with a hot pink holiday tree and a shivering reindeer inflatable. They sold all sorts of shirts with fun sayings on them and had a cooler of pints and treats to go. We finally made our decision. My son decided on a concrete swirl with M&Ms and Oreo cookies. It was so good! We were licking the sides like crazy so it wouldn't drip all over since they piled it decently high. I was going to get a bobalati but they said they didn't have any boba made. I decided to just get an ube gelati with the vanilla custard. Browsing the freezer, after much contemplating, we decided to take a 6 pack of chipwich hand packed ice cream cookie sandwiches to take home. Don't forget to check in on Yelp for 10%! We were really happy with the flavors and also really full. We most definitely will be coming back to try new flavors and mix and match to our hearts delight!
