"Toscanini’s has been collecting plenty of praise over the years: they’ve won many “best ice cream in Boston” awards and were even named “The World's Best Ice Cream” by The New York Times. Try their signature flavors, like the “B3” (brown butter, brown sugar, and brownie) or Burnt Caramel." - Intrepid
"The competition for the best scoop in Boston is fierce, but Toscanini’s might be the most dominant force in the scene. The legendary ice cream shop has received local and national acclaim including from the New York Times for its superior scoops, notably the pleasantly bitter burnt caramel and the B3 — brown butter, brown sugar, and brownies. Get both, and pair with a coffee or tea from local outfits Barismo and Mem. The shop also has a second location near Kendall Square." - Tanya Edwards

"Boston adores ice cream — and there are plentiful options in most parts of town — but one is a bit more iconic than the others. Open since 1981, Toscanini’s is one of the most celebrated ice cream destinations around, garnering quite a bit of press locally and far beyond thanks to flavors such as B3 (brown sugar, brown butter, brownies), burnt caramel, Earl Grey, and more. Also grab one of the best versions of Boston’s iconic frappe while you are there." - Eater Staff
"Toscanini’s might be one of Boston’s most well-known scoop shops, with burnt caramel being one of its most popular flavors. We’re partial to the kulfi and grape nut raisin, and there are also ice cream cakes for those times when you just want to randomly celebrate on a Thursday night." - Joel Ang
