Don’t let the pictures fool you! It basically lipstick on a pig. The finished product doesn’t come close to the pictures or descriptions. Cheap soft serve ice cream thinly coated with dollar store candy or dry cake crumbs. Purchased two cones same size and one was much smaller and missing half the ingredients from the description. Definitely not worth prices they charge.

As an ice cream lover, I liked the taste of the ice cream itself and the size wasn’t one of those tiny ones and I really liked it. but the issue was that there aren’t so many options. Plus the atmosphere and staff were even colder than the ice cream. Lol. All in all I recommend this place.

The ice cream itself was good. A little disappointed in the limited options for what I wanted for my ice cream toppings. Not a fan of the pre-mixed toppings, I’m slightly picky with my food so there that. I think the great ice cream is drowned out by the abundance of sauces. In all honesty I really love saying the name Sweeeeeeet Jeeeeesus ! 😂

Oh my goodness! I found myself in a sugar coma after indulging in the Red Rapture. I ordered the Red Rapture and Hella Hazelnut, and my favorite was the Red Rapture. The cake's crumbly exterior paired with the velvety vanilla ice cream on the inside was an irresistible combination. I was on a diet, but this dessert clearly broke my resolve. Please note that this store doesn't offer indoor seating, so be prepared for a quick grab-and-go experience. However, there are a few outdoor seating options available if you prefer to dine on-site. Overall, it's a great place to satisfy your sweet cravings.

Once the tiny bit of topping is gone, you’re left with a plain vanilla or chocolate soft serve. Not worth the price. The cotton candy and the birthday cake could have had those flavor ice creams. Look at my cotton candy toppings—basically nothing! Then look at the picture! Rip-off.

It was just overhyped. Nothing extraordinary about it at all. The portions are huge. Ended up throwing more than half of it. There is not even a garbage bin outside the restaurant. Had to go all the way back inside to throw my cone.

I wanted to check this place after reading their reviews. My order was for a Peanut butter, Pretzel & Nutella shake. I loved every sip of the shake. The pretzels added a crunchy texture to the milkshake. The store's very small. There's no place to sit inside the store but, there are benches outside. I liked how this place was neatly decorated giving attention to many small details. Their staff were courteous and had my order served quickly. The items on their menu are cheap. If you're looking to get high on desserts, this is the place to go to!

I came here to satisfy a craving for soft serve ice cream and this hit the spot. I had seen the super long lines at the Niagara outlet and was glad there was one right in downtown TO. The 4pm-11pm hours are interesting but I guess there is something to that. The space is small (can only serve 4 patrons at a time) and there was 1 cashier and 1 server. This creates a line outdoors which can be discouraging but it moves quickly. The menu card hanging outside the door lists prices +/- 1 dollar cheaper than the actual cost which is on the menu board inside. Someone needs to have that updated. We had the pimped-out cookies and cream on a waffle cone and a straight-up vanilla in a cup. Both were generously sized for "small" and tasted amazing. They also have patio seating if you want to stay back to have your ice cream. I'll be back here for sure!
