Definitely a new favorite for cool treats. I've been here a few times now. Trying different flavors and combos. This visit we tried not to overindulge, a problem i created last visit. Its not the shop's fault, but my own gluttony. The shop offers a sampler that can have upto 4 different flavors. On the windows, they have a banner that reads: We don't skimp This is absolutely true. The scoops are in no way small but just the right size. So I got the banana creme pie and coconut creme pie flavor ice-cream. My wife got the banana creme pie. We both opted for the homemade waffle bowl, another treat in itself. The advantage of the waffle bowl, is breaking off small pieces of the waffle bowl, with each spoonful of ice-cream, creating a crunchy sensation with each bite. The flavors all taste homemade and delicious. They have many flavors to choose from, far above 31 flavors. They also offer a variety of treats for non-dairy and vegetarian people too. They pretty much have something for everyone. The staff are super nice and courteous. My only advice would be be prepared to wait in line, as it's a very popular place. Though the line moves rather quickly, it's not uncommon to have to wait 20 to 30 min at rush hour/after dinnertime especially on weekends I highly recommend this place

Handel's is our locals favorite! There are multiple locations and their ice creams taste the best! Big hits at our home is the ice cream sundae and pistachio ice cream. The small scope is HUGE so plenty! I highly recommend it!

One of the best ice cream shop near by our place. I have been here before but never did a review. This place needs to be recognized for their friendly and efficient staff. The line can get a little long sometimes but the staff are good taking care of their customers. I ordered an extra think vanilla milk shake this time instead of my normal scoop order. I saw how much vanilla ice creams and vanilla extract they put to make my milk shake the thickest I’ve ever had. It was yummy, my husband had a vanilla ice cream sandwich. That is also a very good tasting ice cream sandwich.

Best ice cream place in Las Vegas, hands down! They always have a wide variety of flavors with a great seasonal menu that changes every so often. The ice cream texture is so perfectly creamy as well. -1 star because you can’t get 2 flavors with a Small size (2.5 scoops). You can only get 2 flavors with a Medium size (3.5 scoops) and that’s the silliest thing I’ve ever heard that makes no sense LOL. But all in all - still my favorite ice cream place and I’ll suck up the stupid 2 flavor rule every time cause their ice cream is bomb!

Many Handles locations in Vegas that give samples. Don't come to this one. They don't allow samples. So many flavors and you can't try to see which you want. GO TO ANOTHER LOCATION. Also their scoops are not as generous here.

Located off the entrance of S Hualapai way you’ll find a shopping center with ample parking. Specifically drawn to the enticing promise of Taro ice cream which turned out to be flavored ice cream, so we opted for the indulgent chocolate malt concoction, we were pleasantly surprised by the rich and creamy goodness that greeted our taste buds. The smooth texture and decadent flavor profile instantly transported me back to the nostalgic days of Brooklyn's iconic Carvel.

HORRIBLE customer service. SLOW AND RUDE!!!! I am so disappointed because the food is good, but I’m appalled by the horrific management at this location. They have coupons and I brought one to use only for the girl to rudely say oh this won’t work for waffle cones only for sugar cones. I was a bit confused as the image on the coupon only showed waffle cones and there was no details on the coupon and no fine print. THEN after reaching out to this owner about my confusion on the issue, his response back was shockingly RUDE and he said that “waffle cone images are used as marketing to get people to the windows and looks like it worked on you guys.” I honestly just can’t believe that somebody is this rude to make a comment like that to people who are customers that were asking a clarification question. There’s just no room in this world for such horrible behavior especially from a man that owns an ice cream shop I mean come on dude. Beyond disappointed.

As advertised, it has the best quality ice cream I had tasted anywhere. My wife and I get ice cream there every week while we are at our winter home in Las Vegas. We've been a regular since 2021, and we hope to get another 20+ years going to Handel's!

Handles is such a cute spot! I always go here after my date night with my husband. They have tons of flavors almost too many good ones to even choose from. And their scoops are HUGE! The only downside is that they don't do split scoops, only double of you want to flavors. That's why I always get the sampler and share with my husband! The staff is always so friendly and helpful. And they give me all the samples until I have a flavor I like. My favorite is the lemon bar, it was a huge surprise to me since I'm not big on lemon but y'all have to try it next time you go!

This was quite a drive form the vegas hotel I was staying at but the Handel's brand is what my wife recognizes and she loves their milkshakes. I came here to treat the wife to this ice cream after kbbq one night, and I had a craving for their cookie monster flavoring. The layout of it is the same from I've been too which you just wait in line outside and if there's any benches or tables around, that's the only places to enjoy ice cream on the spot. The order was quick but this is where I've felt a difference between this location and the one I'm used to back in Long Beach, CA. The young people behind the counter looked indifferent to getting what I want but I manage to get them to smile at me after I smiled first. I came two hours before their close time back in November, so I couldn't have been that annoying to be a customer over there. Regardless, I would still like to come back to this location one day since it's a sure place my wife would come out to get desserts with me while we're in vegas.

This location has never had the friendliest staff, they always seem bothered by customers. Today took the cake though when I called to try to understand an Uber Eats order issue. I learned the internet was down, very frustrating for a business. No big deal, except the person answering the phone was so combative and rude. I asked about the situation, he snapped back at me, and if he wouldn't have slammed the phone down he'd know I said thank you. The Uber Eats driver did not speak English as a first language. His message prior to the photo said they "refused to serve me" which seemed odd, so I called to try to clarify what was happening and end the confusion. I'm not upset the internet was down. I'm not upset I didn't get the order. I'm not upset at Uber. I'm angry that an adult could be so rude and combative instead of simply explaining the unavoidable issue. We get Handel's weekly, my kids love it. We will be driving past this location to one of the other two for our ice cream. Handel's are franchises and the other locations have different owners and have always been kind and welcoming.

This location carries more flavors/different flavors than the boca park location, however i seem to like the boca park location more. Why? because we get to get samples to try out the flavors before making final decision, however at this location there's no sampling- which i didn't like that. Also usually during the day it gets quite busy as it is an outdoor location you have to wait in line for quite a while outside, and it gets hottt. I rather come here at night. Overall it is the same ice cream quality just i didn't like not being able to sample the few flavors i had in mind before making my final decision.

Amazing ice cream, but just be ready to wait as the lines get super long in the evenings. FYI, there is no indoor seating and no tables, this is only an outdoor place where you order through a window, and sit on outside benches.

Great ice cream place in Vegas! -walk up to order -tons of flavors and ways to get your ice cream (Sunday, shake, cup, cone) -fast and friendly service! -locations opening up all over the Las Vegas valley I highly recommend this place for great ice cream! Perfect for the 100+ degrees summer days!

I absolutely love handels ice cream. I always come here for my go to spot for ice cream and their hot fudge sundaes. Unfortunately I just received the outmost awful service. I work in the food industry myself, i am always giving people the benefit of the doubt. I had ordered a hot fudge sundae and a coconut caramel delight ice cream. I then got a coconut caramel delight ice cream with hot fudge on top. It also was in an ice cream topper not even in the correct container. ice cream was spewing out from the sides. I went to go get it corrected and was polite about it. When I told the girl that maybe there was a miscommunication. I wasn't expecting such a rude response "well thats what you said". She then proceeded to slam the window in my face after the transaction had happened. I would've had no problem with the miscommunication it was the rude service and demeanor this girl had. Just straight disrespectful. Honestly shocked. Never received such bad service. Let alone at an ice cream shop. We ended up throwing away the ice cream that was proceeding to spill on the ground because of the incorrect container. We never got refunded or anything corrected. Instead we were shouted out as we walked away. We did end up getting ice cream at sorry not sorry and received such amazing customer service. Im sorry not sorry.

This location's staff seemed incredible irritated that we were there to order. It was 9:30 pm, 30 minutes before the location closed, and a girl named Denna was at the window. She was incredibly rude and unhelpful. If all staff is like this, then the team needs a serious rundown on how customer service should look. No samples, no cups if you get a cone unless you pay extra (but I already paid extra for the cone...), so if your ice cream starts melting, too bad, you better eat fast! "It's against company policy." You need to come in with a good knowledge of their flavors because your questions won't be answered and you will get attitude if you dare ask. I wonder if Handel's are franchises, because the individual who owns this location doesn't know what they're doing or how to successfully operate a business to build a regular customer base. Or, maybe you do, but then you need to spend more time with the kids at night because they need some serious mentorship. What's the joy in having a bunch of teenagers work for you if you can't help them acquire the skills to succeed in the workforce later in life? Disgusted by my experience and I wish I went to my normal location. Thanks.

THE WORST HANDLES ICE CREAM SHOP EVER! They don't let you try samples. Like wtf are you for real? We just had an amazing dinner next door at the Italian restaurant and told my parents and sister about the amazing ice cream of Handels. We have one in Irvine where I live and eat it so much there. Was excited to take my family because of the quality and the unique flavors. We get to the counter and wanted to try some of the new flavors and the girl said "the owner doesn't allow samples here." I said what? The one in Irvine does. She said different owner. Ok for sure. She then asked you want the new Carrot Cake flavor? Ok hello are you dumb? How do I know if I would like it if I can't try it? Am I just supposed to just take your word for it? Lol. So if I don't like it I'm stuck paying for and eating an ice cream I don't like. The one in Irvine I've tried so many of the flavors whenever I go. I don't like the setup of this one either. You order outside and not inside. The one in Irvine you actually go inside and try samples and they explain the flavors to you. My sister asked the girl what's in the Graham Central Station. You know what she said? It's a Graham cracker flavored ice cream lol. Wow. Great explanation there genius. You should be an electrical engineer! Definitely don't come here if you want to try different flavors. They won't let you. I've never seen an ice cream shop not allow at least one or two samples per person. I know times are tough and inflation is real but dayum. Sell your shop or just close down if you're struggling that much to stay afloat to where you can't even give samples.

Must Visit Ice Cream Shop Amazing tasting ice cream! Cannot go wrong with this place. Great quality and great in this Vegas heat. During this visit, there was one worker but the wait was not too bad. I hear the kine can get very long though. Ambiance: Don't expect many seats, there are only 3 benches that I saw. Though there is a sign that states, "We Never Skimp", one of the ice cream cups was skimped on . I guess the worker was trying to rush? The quality of ice cream is amazing though.

Okay, Handel's is the best ice cream in town! A solid 5 star but the only reason I can't give it the full five is because, majority of the time, I don't get the correct flavors... and when I get home during that specific time of the month I'm pretty peeved about it Any other time I can look over it because it's just that dang good! Just sucks the rate at which it happens. I think it's because they hire young adults (maybe high school/ college). I must say though, they are always friendly. BUT ANYWAY! I can't get over the selection of flavors and each month they have new options (yes more than one!!!) for the "Flavor of the month"! I ALWAYS get the four scoop sampler. Don't let the name fool you - they are not tiny scoops and for the price, it's just ridiculous I've tried the competitors here in town that people rave about and quite frankly they are overpriced and overhyped! I also love the convenience of walking up to the window and not having to be crammed into a small/ loud ice cream shop. If you haven't tried this amazing creamery stop everything you're doing and run to the nearest location! 10 out of 10 would recommend every time.

Yelp Review 2023 #315: I don't frequent Handel's since all their locations are too far from where I live. However, they do have good ice cream which reminds me of when I used to live in the Midwest - where small mom and pop old-fashioned ice cream parlors are common. I thought this all seemed familiar and nostalgic - it turns out Handel's is from the Midwest! Ohio to be exact. And all I know about Ohio is that they're in the top 5 highest number of ser!al k!llers in the country. Here's Handel's putting a happy spin on Ohio. They have old school flavors you can't find in grocery stores, and some flavors that became popular after the '80's. And of course, Ohio's own, Buckeye (peanut butter ice cream with fudge ripple and buckeye candy pieces). It's a good place to take the entire family no matter what generation - there's a flavor for everyone. They have hurricanes (which we call concretes where I'm from) - ice cream with mix-ins (cookies, brownies, chocolate bars) which has a lighter mouthfeel due to air getting mixed in from the blending process. A softer version of ice cream but firmer than a milkshake. They're add!ct!ng so, watch out! You can sundaes, sherbets, sorbets, ice cream by the scoop or by the pint. They pride themselves for making fresh ice cream daily. And you can tell good ice cream when it melts/ softens quickly. Hard ice cream means poor quality (high water content and additives). My favorite flavors: black cherry, coffee chocolate chip, black walnut, monkey business, and cherry cordial. I recently tried their chocolate chip cookie dough - it was alright. What I do want to try next time: horchata. You'll see people eating their frozen treat outside the store. It's a casual place. The only word of caution I have is if you're getting a pint, make sure you watch them fill the container with ice cream and not just a bit of ice cream and air.

I totally have a Handel's problem. In fact I may need an intervention!! My husband and I go to Handel's almost every weekend to pick up some ice cream. This post is about customer service since I obviously love the ice cream. I have to give a shout out to one employee in particular. Her name is Danni ( I hope Im spelling that correctly). Every time we come, she is so friendly and kind. She answers our questions with a smile when we're asking about new flavors. When she is not helping us, service is fast and good, but there's not that warm extra greeting or smile. Danni is awesome!! The service she provides is a prime example of what good customer service should look like!

Handles has long been the highlight of our family's day whenever we visit. Such delicious, creamy ice creams, with exceptional and friendly service. There are so many flavors to choose from! No matter how many times we visit, we always seem to need at least 5 minutes to make our choice from their vast menu. Some of our absolute favorites that we highly recommend are: -Handel Pop in Mint Chocolate Chip -Praline Pecan -Butter Pecan -Black Cherry -Spouse Like a House -Dark Chocolate Raspberry Truffle -Pina Colada Shake We also love that Handels locations provide some form of dog friendly patio seating. This location has 5 bench seats. If table and chair seating is more your style, walk down to the corner past Papa Murphys Pizza and you'll find table seating at the corner. Thank you Handles for the always pleasant visits and delectable desserts!

You scream, I scream, we all scream for ice cream!!! Handel's homemade ice cream and yogurt is a definite must try if you're a fan of ice cream like I am. They never disappoint and they have tons of flavors to choose from. So I'm always a bit excited to see which flavor I'm going to try next. Maybe the blueberry cobbler or the vegan mango sorbet. Can't wait :)

Yum, yum, just yum !!! So rich, creamy & so many flavours to choose from! Every Tuesday there's a 50% off on these delicious home-made ice-creams! You get the option of cake cone, sugar cone or small dish for $3 !! Let me tell you there was a long queue. But worth the wait !!!! The service was quick and "handled ":p well. It was located at Tropicana avenue complex and everything was closed as we got there by 8, but people around gave a nice vibe. I got the chocolate pecan flavour which was amazing as I'm a chocolate lover! My husband got banana foster flavour which was fruity! The quantity was a lot for a small dish:) Can't wait to try out other flavours too ;)

My partner and I used to live just a mile away from a Handel's back in Southern California, so we would hop on our bikes and go there every Tuesday as a little date night tradition (until the pandemic hit). 50+ ice cream cones later, we figured out all our favorite flavors (shout out to Graham Central Station and Blueberry Cobbler), and Handel's became a special part of our story. So of course, we were so stoked to find out there's a Handel's in Vegas (with another one on the way)! This location felt almost identical to the one we used to go to. The same posters on the windows (like the one about how Handel's was voted #1 ice cream in the world), the same walk-up window storefront, the same menu flavors. But a key difference was their Tuesday ice cream deal! We used to get 2.5 scoops for $2, then it went to $2.50, and now here it was $3, and you can only get one flavor. That was a huge disappointment because we always enjoyed each picking one flavor and sharing a cone. However, totally understandable giving the increasing costs of living and inflation :) A final thing I want to call out about Handel's is that I feel like they've really maintained the quality of their ice cream and great service as they've expanded. This is something that many businesses tend to lose as they grow but I'm in awe at how Handel's has handled it!

What a delightful treat visiting Handel's last night for the first time! This relaxed, casual place stirred childlike memories of when I would anticipate my turn in long lines at a Dairy Queen stand in Leavenworth. Well Dorothy, you aren't in (LV) Kansas anymore, this LV is Las Vegas and Handel's is by far superior and definitely worth the wait in line. 108 degrees on a warm July evening, many patrons awaited their turn to order at one of the walk up windows. The line flowed under the shaded canopy of the building and the breeze was pleasant. You could feel the excitement and positive energy from patrons chatting with each other. The line moved quickly. There were so many selections to choose from. The gal who took my order was friendly and pleasant. I ordered a chocolate sundae with a scoop of black cherry and a scoop of pistachio, added nuts along with the whipped cream and cherry on top. For myself, I tried the chocolate brownie chunk in a cake cone. Sorry, no picture of the cone as I had to enjoy it quickly before I had a mess on my hands in the car. Next time, I may opt to ask for a little dish to put my cone in upside down like I saw a lady pass by with hers that way. There were bench seats around the corner to sit on as well. The benches were also under the canopy of the building. The ice cream was a hit!! If you love chocolate and love the taste of homemade brownies, I suggest you try the chocolate chunk brownie. It was so delicious! The scoop was very generous, with the feeling of a double scoop. The cake cone had ice cream packed all the way to the last bite at the bottom which also was impressive. I heard numerous rave reviews and was offered a bite from the sundae as well. It looked amazing, but I was too busy enjoying my cone. Thank you Handel's, you've gained new customers!

"Life is better with ice cream." ~ My soul dad would say. We took a roadtrip once to Las Vegas and if he were still alive today I would absolutely bring him here. Handel's is my favorite ice creamery of all places and on my list of 111 heatwave solutions. There's usually a line but the wait goes by fast and is totally worth it. I don't remember taking any photos the first time because it was night but definitely remember how delicious the ice cream was. Recently we went in the summer afternoon after we already had ice cream that came with our lunch. There's an incredible variety of flavors! We shared a medium waffle cone with two lickity lick flavors: salted caramel, strawberry cheesecake. On top of that, we ordered two pints of our favorite flavors to go: black cherry and pistachio. We had to hop on a flight the next morning so I'm still craving those scoops in the freezer!

Can't say no to Handels. I wish this location gave samples, but alas they don't. Ice cream is good and creamy though. Only real con is no samples because it's hard to choose flavors. Service is friendly.

Needed a Sunday treat during the hot day so I stopped at Handel's on Tropicana. I have never been to this location before but glad I chose it as the staff was quick & helpful! Their menu & pictures were all easy to read and made the decision making process easy! I ordered a mint chocolate chip Sunday and the girl at the counter recommended it with the brownies! I am so glad she did! It was magical! I don't believe there is any indoor area to go sit down at which makes it difficult to wait outside in the heat. I probably won't go here when it's 100+ degrees out but it's great for now until that summer heat really kicks in. There wasn't a clear line/window to order from so a bunch of people stood around until someone greeted from one of the two windows. After we places our order we all stood around the same areas which was awkward a bit. My only recommendation would be better organization here. Maybe have a designated order line, pick up window and a waiting area/sign would be helpful for staff & customers. AMAZING ICE CREAM though! 10 out of 10!

In a way, I wish this place was not so close to me so I don't have to frequent here so often! Lol This place is not a sit down ice cream spot. You order outside at a window. Sometimes there's a line and sometime's there's not. A small scoop is plenty, which is basically two scoops of ice cream. My favorite is the Graham central station. Blueberry cobbler is my second favorite. You can save $3 by ordering the 4 scoop sampler instead of ordering 2 small ice creams.

When you want great ice cream with superb, friendly, fun service, this is the place to go. It's a take-out only place and there are benches around to sit and enjoy your delicious dessert. My favorite is the Black Cherry. It is literally loaded with a ton of cherries and the ice cream is so creamy. The blue monster is my next favorite. It has lots of yummy Oreos in it. Pricing is great and you get a lot for your buck. It's definitely a great place to go for ice cream.

This place is known for their homemade craftsmanship!! Creamy, rich, delicious!! It's definitely a different setting as it's ONLY outside. But it makes sense because every time we've been here there has been a long line! They have fun homemade flavors offered in ice cream and sherbet, in cones, cups, shakes and sandwiches!! If your a chocolate lover, that chocoholic chunk was over the top!! The mango sherbet was also very mango-y, creamy and refreshing!! There are plenty of options to explore! But so far we haven't been disappointed!

I am a bit disappointed. Used to love it, but I find it bizarre that they do not let you sample flavors. I've actually never seen an ice cream shop that won't allow samples. After they denied the sample I said ok, so if I get the flavor I have never tried and pay for it, taste it and not like it-surely you will switch it out for me no problem. The answer? A solid nope. Given that the other Handels locations encourage you to sample their flavors, just like this one used to, I will definitely take my business there. The excuse for no samples? covid! Huh? Not sure how that's still a thing, but def not a biz practice I'd implement in an ice cream shop. Friends got their ice creams, delicious as ever, but off principle I'll take my business to the other locations.

This used to be the spot. Went today, the owner was there, ive been going long enough to know he owns it as I been going since it opened. They had flavors of the month , I asked to try and he said they don't do samples (new policy) then he said it tastes like it sounds. I noticed no kids were working there, just him and no customers there just me, makes sense. He was rude,and thank God for the other two that have opened a lot friendlier and with 30+ flavors you'd understand tasting, as he once offered taste testing I. I'll never go back and suggest the same to all who read. Go to arroyo crossing or summerlin. 1000% better experience

Handel's is my #1 favorite ice cream place in town because of how delicious their ice cream is. I have tried many of their flavors and enjoyed every single one. The texture of their ice cream is phenomenal. This is definitely a to-go only spot with just a couple benches but no tables to sit at outside the walk-up windows. Notable Flavors: Ore-Dough (Oreo + cookie dough) - my personal favorite Blue Monster (Oreo + cookies) Graham Center Station Offer several types of cones: waffle, sugar, cake, etc. They also offer "hurricanes", their version of a DQ blizzard, and way better!

Location on Tropicana recently opened & so far I am impressed. I ordered the Hurricane (vanilla ice cream w/ Reese's peanut butter cups), which was delicious! Had a chance to talk to a few customers about certain menu items. Graham central station, salty caramel truffle, bananas foster, and banana cream pie were a few that were a hit! The service was excellent as well as the outside ambiance. Had two windows open but orders were going quickly. I will order more items in my next visit.

We had a bite on the Strip seeing my cousins and their partners, so yesterday, we had ice cream for dinner (yes!). We had a coupon to use (val-pak). Mmm. Large portions. Out of my 1st choice, peanut butter (recall). So I got butter pecan in a waffle cone, hubby got coconut cream pie (2nd time he got this flavor) in a waffle cone, and the boy got oree-dough. There are two benches. Not a sitdown place, there are order windows. It was a challenge, eating it while it was windy. It reminded me of that commercial, "if it doesn't get all over the place..." It was messy (the wind and my long hair), but, oh my gosh, standing in that teally long line was worth it. Mmm. We will be back again. More val-pak coupons are expected (there are two different promos in the monthly coupon). I tried to take pics of the menu/prices but there was a glare so I did the best I could.

Outdoor ice cream counter serving scoops, sundaes, floats, and their special, Handel's Hurricanes! So many flavors to choose from, although they do not do flavor samples. I got the ore-dough, and it's true that they don't skimp! Ice cream was filled with Oreo cookies and cookie dough chunks throughout. Do be aware that the small sugar/cake cone is 3.5 scoops (not complaining)! It's perfect way to cool off in these 100 degree summers.

Icecream is good. It really depends on the flavor. I got there kind of blizzard with Reese peanut butter cup and I should have gotten a scope of icecream as the vanilla frozen yogurt they use tastes just like anywhere else. My son's chocolate brownie batter was really good and my daughters salted carmel was good also. There is going to be a line. Have someone walk to the front and take a picture of the flavors before you wait. Only a few outdoor benches to sit on. Don't forget to ask for napkins or extra spoons before they finish your order.

The ice cream here is delicious... to the point of waiting in line. Every time I am here there is always a line, but normally it does go by fast. however, all my most recent visit the line wasn't that long, but it took forever and when I got to the front of the line, I was able to figure out why. The staff was just joking and playing around and half of them wasn't even moving just laughing. The line was getting longer and longer and they still took their time. Now the staff was friendly, but waiting in that line and not seeing a movie and seeing them just joking around really brings a negative experience to me. I really do hope that this place is able to turn your stuff around because I really love coming here with my daughter and getting a cone of ice cream because this place really is delicious. Please be better next time..

It's a walkup style ice cream shop. You place your order at the window and they prepare it right there. You can see inside from the window which is cool. There isn't anywhere to really sit, so expect to take it with you. This concept is exciting, but not in the Vegas heat because you wait in a line outside. They have so many ice cream flavors and mix ins. The best thing is that they have a banana split which is hard to find in Vegas! Sonic discontinued theirs so this is the next best place to get it.

I love this ice cream place. My cousin introduced Handel to me when I moved to Vegas. I'm lactose intolerant but still I can't stop having habdel ice cream. Pricier than other ice cream places but their ice cream flavors are really good.

So disappointed. My bf and I have been coming here since we moved to Las Vegas. The ice cream is delicious but this is now the second time we've had an issue with serving size. After waiting in line for about 30 mins, sweating, these were the two mediums I was served. It's unacceptable.

Went here for first time asked about something on the menu a pop said they don't have but wouldn't explain. Such a bad experience never will go back. 30 year old man blonde hair was such a piece of u know. Talked to us badly left bought nothing never will hope he goes out of business. Total jerk he and the cashier/ server.

First time going tonight. I ordered large waffle bowl, but the kid that took my order served me medium. I was going to say something, but I saw that they were getting busier so I just kept my mouth shot. I ordered taro with Ube and Buckeye and they were horrible and super sweet like getting ready to be a diabetic. Never going back again and like other people commented, they do not give you samples and if you don't like the flavor and ask fir exchange, they will charge you. My boyfriend had to throw away the pineapple and sorbet Medium Waffle cone he ordered because they were disgusting.

Most amazing ice cream. Wait in line if you have to wait. The line moves fast. Friendly service. Tons of flavors to pick from. I haven't had anything I didn't like yet. Mango sorbet is dairy free, so is the watermelon ice. Good parking situation. Large lot, no issue. Note: there isn't indoor seating, only a few benches outside

Have not had a bad flavor yet. I say I will get a.regular.cone but always end up with the 4 scoop sampler so I can try other flavors. Buckeye is a favorite along with Graham cracker station and the peppermint bark is the bomb when they have it.

LP for my visit on 3/5. We had just finished lunch at Fukuburger and despite the fact that it was cold and windy, I was craving ice cream and in case you were wondering...no I'm not preggo :-) My friend recommended this spot and since I'm always about trying new places I readily agreed. I ordered the following: 1 pint of Chocolate Malt with Caramel (malted chocolate ice cream with caramel ripple) 1 pint of Coffee Chocolate Chip (coffee ice cream with chocolate chips) 1 scoop of Blue Monster (blue vanilla ice cream with Oreo ® cookies and Nestle ® Chocolate Chip Cookies) PROS: Ice cream was phenomenal. Creamy, silky smooth and delicious. Prices were very reasonable. CONS: Short line.....long wait. This wouldn't normally be a problem, but when it's super windy and you have to stand outside to order :-( I will definitely be back to try the other flavors. I'm an ice cream fiend so it's my mission to try every single flavor on the menu....twice... LOL
