Brian HerschaftMay 6, 2014Some of the best ice cream in the country. Don't be shy to ask for a taste of all the flavors, literally. The Askinosie dark milk chocolate and the brown butter almond brittle were my favorites!
Colleen MeganJune 13, 2016Best ice cream I've had, period. Don't be steered away by the funky flavor names the staff will let you try anything you want & even make recommendations. Churro, Bourbon Salted Pecan & Espresso 👌🏻
- Brambleberry crisp, watermelon, Atlantic Beach Pie and and Ultramarine Blue are my top flavors. Honorable mentions go to Churro and Brown Butter Almond Brittle.
ToryBurchJune 25, 2013This go-to ice cream shop churns out flavors that are equal parts unique and delicious. Brown Butter Almond Brittle, Goat Cheese with Red Cherries and Buttercup Pistachio & Honey are all worth trying.
Salted Caramel and Whiskey & Pecan are two flavors you can't go wrong with. If you want to try something, get the Goat Cheese With Cherries... It may sound weird but its creamy and delicious!
Wael HassanDecember 26, 2018Hands down the best ice cream in Nashville. I love their waffles too. Try a waffle with ice cream in a cup, it is my favorite.
Dee Dee BallSeptember 13, 2014A must do! The smallest size is 2 flavors and the scoops are not huge, so do it. I had the recommended Goat Cheese and Cherry beside the Darkest Chocolate. ❤️
Travel + LeisureMarch 10, 2014Go Willy Wonka on this Ohio import, where flavors include Riesling- poached pear and goat cheese with red cherries. Worth two scoops: biscuits & peach jam, inspired by the Southern classic.
Fantastic, creative flavors that change seasonally! Make sure to taste lots to get a great combo. Riesling Poached Pear is a classic
Duncan HowsleyAugust 18, 2014Let's make one thing clear. This is the best ice cream I have ever eaten. What's more, the staff are incredibly friendly and let you try anything and everything before choosing. Incredible.
EmilyJuly 18, 2012This ice cream is incredible! Delicious, well thought out flavors that are not only creatively named but have creatively combined flavors. Super yummy and a big 2 thumbs up!
Matthew PattersonFebruary 27, 2014Don't be scared by unique flavors, like those of the Winter Woods collection. They are some of the best of what Jeni's offers.
Joy Jamal EddineJanuary 17, 2017The Savannah Buttermint is perfect: white chocolate/minty/sweet/buttery (Although not always available since it's one of their limited edition flavors)
Greg S.June 29, 2016We split a Study ($7 for four scoops). This place has amazing flavors and would gladly get fat and go broke trying every single one.
Christine McKennaOctober 11, 2014don't miss the green tomato ice-cream during july/august - it's available for a limited time in honor of the Tomato Art Fest. (sounds weird, but its yummy - i promise.)
Try the One Night In Bangkok - Bangkok peanut ice cream, caramel sauce, spanish peanuts, fresh banana, whipped cream, a sprig of cilantro, and a waffle cone fortune cookie.
Brian SearlMay 9, 2013Ever wondered where the best ice cream in America is served? Congrats, you found it. Made with cream from grass-fed cows, this is the sweetest treat you'll ever have.
Vivek SurtiJune 24, 2011One of the best ice cream shops in town! Try the queen city cayenne (choc lovers), rhubarb/lime/cardamom, Bangkok peanut, or rocky hill ale w/apricots! Heavenly!- Becky MorrowOctober 1, 2017Goat cheese and cherry ice cream is the best. And it's the only lavender ice cream ice ever had that doesn't taste like soap
Design*SpongeAugust 3, 2014Goat Cheese and Cherries, Brown Butter Almond Brittle, Salty Caramel. With flavors like these, do I even need to say more? Read more
The riesling poached pear and the cherry lambic are both vegan, so if you're vegan, get both!
Scott BryantOctober 5, 2016Had 4 unique flavors, this place is crazy. Definitely a different take on ice cream.
Brent BreauxNovember 16, 2013You simply will not ever - and I mean ever - taste better ice cream anywhere else. There are too many exquisite flavors, I can only recommend getting a trio so you can have 3!
Timi TurnageJuly 23, 2011Really great selection of "homemade" ice cream. I love the salted caramel. Lots of windows and sunlight...it's always really hot inside. Read more
Ben HamnerNovember 17, 2012Brown butter almond brittle ice cream is delicious! And this is from a vanilla-lover
Kara MundyJuly 20, 2016Made in front of your eyes waffle cones, and the pistachio and honey ice cream.
Rose PerezJune 22, 2018I love their ice cream. I did not like the way they make their new waffle cone. Way to salty!! I wish they go back to the old one.
Jay ClaudeNovember 27, 2011The "One night in Bangkok" sundae is no joke. A very smooth suttle heat is encompassed by the cool creamy whipped cream and peanut ice cream- Mark MingroneSeptember 26, 2015Ask for samples of you can't decide. I also ask for staff favorites. If all else fails.....Salty Caramel!
JD HerreraMay 23, 2014Limited edition Cultured Key lime Pie frozen yogury is the best. Awesome space... wish one was in Texas
Meg LakeSeptember 13, 2014Taste several before you pick your ice cream flavors!! Everything is soooo good!!
Carol PipesJune 29, 2013Bramble berry crisp ice cream and the Buckeye State ice cream tastes like eating peanut butter and jelly. Yum!
Matthew SullivanNovember 29, 2014Don't be shy to ask for samples; the staff is very patient and happy to get you to the right flavor.
KatieMarch 9, 2013I'm a simple girl when it comes to ice cream..but this place is awesome...I still love their Dark chocolate...
Very VERY good Ice Cream. Really would recommend you guys try it!
- Best ice cream you'll ever put in your mouth! Dark Chocolate & Queen City Cayenne is yummy, but try them ALL!
Alexandra GibsonSeptember 12, 2014Love the goat cheese and cherries. Sounds strange, but trust me on this one.- The wildberry lavender mixed with the Ugandan vanilla tastes just like Fruity Pebbles, but better! Always get the homemade waffle cone!
The salted caramel icecream is out of this world good. Tastes really good with the honey pistachio.
So many unique flavors!! Definitely try"pistachio & honey".. its my personal favorite.
