Paradise Ice Cream

Someone came outside to greet us as soon as we pulled up. He was very kind, made a few jokes, and we didn't feel pressured to order. We wound up getting the salted caramel toffee and a burnt caramel praline cheesecake flavor. They were both amazing! The ice cream is smooth with the perfect amount of add ins. We were pleasantly surprised that it’s not too sweet compared to other ice cream shops. I’m sad they don’t offer the funnel cake for take out orders (only catering), but I understand. We’ll definitely be back :)

I tried several flavors and all of them was amazing. You can't find those flavors in any other places. You must try their new flavor, Matcha Honeycomb Mascarpone, it is the bomb!!! I think Paradise is one of the best ice cream in the DMV area, better than big name brands. It is not too sweet (TBH, best compliment for dessert), and tastes like real homemade. Even Cookie Sandwiches are great! Cookies are buttery and chewy but not soggy. I also love the fact that this is a family owned business. Everyone is so kind and friendly here :) I would definitely come back soon!!

I rolled through on a weekend evening. This is basically an online ordering spot. You can either order through an app or wait for the waiter to greet you at your vehicle, and they'll take your order through their device. They offer ice cream, ice cream sandwiches , and sorbet. I ordered 2 pints of the Bourbon Pecan Pie and the Cake Batter Cookie and haven't been back since. It wasn't terrible, just unremarkable and pricey for what you get....the ice cream and the experience. I found the ice cream to have a texture like fondant out the box. Perhaps it may need to sit for some time (maybe 30mins) prior to eating but that should be the case when you buy ice cream from a shop or they should let you know that's needed when you purchase. Nevertheless, I plan on visiting again to try their ice cream sandwiches, which appear to be delectable from the reviews I see from other posters. It's worth a visit for sure and YMMV.

This Black-owned business serving premium homemade ice creams, cookie sandwiches, and more for over 22 years. If you want to see what 'gourmet' and 'homemade' ice creams look and taste like, this is the place! Yum!!! Very friendly and quick service. :)

We happened on this place by doing a random google search for ice cream. We were plesantly surprised! The gentleman that took our order was hilarious and friendly- he took the time to explain their ordering process and ice cream options. We got the pistachio lemon ricotta, and cake batter cookie dough. The flavor options were great, so we will have to come back and try more!

Paradise is back for the spring/summer season!!!! Their homemade ice cream is amazing!!! Pick up only, order thru the app. Easy pick up, great service! I’m a loyal customer every year! The cookie/ice cream sandwich is the 💣!

Everyone must try paradise ice cream! Best ice cream ever. I loved the fresh, rich, and creamy taste! The strawberry ice cream sandwich and matcha honeycomb mascarpone ice cream is a must try! The owner of the business is super friendly as well. Thank you so much!

Huge shout out to the awesome team at Paradise Ice Cream! My husband and I were planning to hang out with some close friends we had not seen in months and thought ice cream was a perfect dessert option on a hot Virginia summer day. Paradise is amazing....it was so easy to order ahead on their website and pickup at the expected time. They also offer delivery. This is our second time sampling amazing ice cream from Paradise and we also tried a slice of their chocolate peanut butter cake. Everything is soooo good. The ice cream has that slow churned creaminess and the cake was super moist. I really like the Mint Chocolate Madness, but the chocolate brownie, smoked bacon apple crumble, and key lime pie flavors are delightful as well. The ice cream cookies are also a must try.....oreo or chocolate chip stuffed with one of three awesome ice cream options....you seriously cannot go wrong here. Their team is super friendly and helpful as well. You don't even need to get out of your car....they know when you pull up and come right out to greet you. Definitely give Paradise your business; you won't regret it; you'll just be addicted....lol. Thanks for another great experience; we'll be back! :-)
