    My favorites so far: Banana ice cream with toasted almonds and red bean ice cream with red bean topping... All with premium base. Still working through the entire list of favors :))

    Expect a long line (10-20 min is avg). Worth the wait! Smooth, creamy texture you won't find anywhere else! Plus, it's made to your specs! Sizes are generous so plan to share with a friend.

    I expected more. Toppings are just that, on top. The only thing this place has going for it is that the ice cream is made on the spot. I'll go to Coldstone next time.

    Pure novelty. Okay tasting ice cream. Freshly made using "science" sure draws the crowd but also takes too much time, up to 20+ minutes from the time you wait in line to order.

    Get your topping mixed in, that way it's not so messy since the icecream sticks out over the top of the cup!

    The liquid nitrogen is a little gimmicky but the ice cream is still excellent.

    Deliciously dense ice cream! Get a small or share a medium. Trust me, you'll be satisfied!

    It was delicious. But the wait was really long. Seemed like the employees were working hard but no communication or organization was in order. I would go back. But if there's a line. I'm not waiting.

    Ice cream was yummy but with only 5 machines the wait on a weekday afternoon was pretty long!

    There are a ton of options, so be ready to feel slightly overwhelmed and wait in a line for a bit.

    Expensive ice cream, lots of flavored though. Come on any day other than Tuesday for deals.

    $8-10/each for not so great ice cream. Each topping costs u $1. Just a show. Taste isn't great. The texture is so heavy.. Avoid n save $. Liquid nitrogen won't help any on flavor - just freeze quickly

    Line from sidewalk = 25 min wait to order. Another 25 min for order to be made. Be prepared to wait at least an hour.

    Long wait and overpriced. Novelty makes it worth going once, maybe. Only go during off-peak hours.
