“So many delicious flavors, it was hard to pick. Our family of four enjoyed our different choices. It's a beautiful ambiance for the beginning of summer with indoor and outside space. Staff was very friendly and helpful in helping us decide which flavors to try. Def recommend and we'll be back to try new flavors!“
“The place is cozy and welcoming, the aroma inside is divine. We went in for a quick to go order of freshly baklava and there were so many varieties.Husband and I will definitely be back to enjoy more than the desserts. A perfect place for a coffee date.“
“A friend told me about this neighborhood gem. I'm blown away by the friendly atmosphere and staff. If you're looking for something special and authentic this is the place to visit. Everything made in-house and freshly prepared with care and love“
“Everytime I stop by for a snack, they always welcome you with a big smile, they are very friendly, customer service is great, love coming to this michoacana ?. Love the strawberry yogurt with mix fruits. Thank you for your great customer service.“
“Awesome place for smoothies and frozen yogurt , haven’t had a bad experience in the year I been going , always has the freshest fruit and everything is clean and on point , definitely recommend to anyone , owner is super nice and easy going as “

Recommend 100%.Parking: There is plenty of parking spaces.Kid-friendliness: Kids can actually see the staff baking and packaging the cookies.Wheelchair accessibility: The store is spacious for wheelchair.“
“Best local spot for gelato or food!! They always have a huge variety of gelato and ice cream flavors. I love coming here, the portions are always big as well. Their food is served hot and tasty! I also really like the small and intimate environment. I always have great service!“
“An absolutely amazing restaurant which is rare to find in this area. Besides the food being above par…the service is above and beyond. All the servers and even the head chef will come out to the customers and make sure you walk out more than satisfied. One server Yaren, she made sure we were taken care of so well the whole time. She is absolutely a great server! Food is so authentic it taste just like when I ate in Turkey ??! Promise you will love this place just as much as I did!“
“When I come in to Chicago to visit family and friends I always make an attempt to come here to eat. Great food and atmosphere. It is a very tiny place inside a bowling alley but very busy because of the staff and food. 5 Sears Towers because after five years he is still consistent.“
“We had dessert only but service was a bit all over the place, we got there and had to wait for a table and the people behind us got thier order taken before us and served 1st although we had been waiting. Overall, the dessert Sunday was delicious... My brownie was nice and warm, and so was the chocolate syrup.“
“I have been going to this place since it opened and i had always only gotten the nachos extra cheese and peppers because they reminded me of my childhood. But then i tried the ice cream it is the best. Look the owner she is the best and the most sweetest person in the world. And i am so happy for her that she expanded the shop. If you haven't been there go. Take the kids parents and just treat yourself.“
“Hottest week of the year and we needed to do something fast to show our loyal employees how much we appreciated their hard work and dedication. I filled out the online form at Windy City Ice Cream, requesting a quote. Elena got back to me almost immediately and together we set up a time the next day to come out and surprise our employees. Communication was great the whole day and Aaron showed up with his truck on time. He was both courteous and professional. With traditional ice cream truck music playing, our employees were able to make their selections and the overall reaction from our employees was quite positive. What a fun experience! I would highly recommend Windy City Ice Cream for your next event!“
“I've never had a bad experience here at Crumbl Cookies!Since moving to the area a few months ago, this has been our go-to Crumbl Cookies spot. We get it probably once a month - yikes! Every time here, though, has been the opposite of yikes - the staff is friendly, the cookies are fresh, it's never busy, always clean, and there's ample parking outside. At my old Crumbl Cookies location in Schaumburg, it was always a tight squeeze and hustle-and-bustle situation inside the store and in the parking lot because it was so busy. This location is bigger with more parking, but it's never busy which I like. Let's be real, Crumbl Cookies are freaking good. There's 4 rotating flavors every single week and 2 constant flavors (chocolate chip & sugar). I always love the chocolate chip and will get it in replacement of one of the rotating cookies when I get a 4-pack. In my opinion the warm cookies are always better than the chilled, but some of the chilled ones are great, too. They also sometimes include a mystery cookie which yes, is a mystery when you get it. I love that they do that, I think it's a fun concept especially if you really don't know which other cookie to get or want to try something new.There's TONS of flavors in general at Crumbl, I can't even select my favorite one. When they have these flavors, I do really enjoy their cinnamon swirl cookie, s'mores, cinnamon fry bread, dulce de leche, Biscoff lava, chocolate cake, buckeye brownie, and basically any flavor that has cinnamon or caramel in it, or that's super chocolatey and gooey. You already know I'll be coming to this location again!“

“Do NOT sleep on the pineapple Dole whip or even just visiting Hole in the Wall! It is so, so delicious, especially the pineapple Dole whip (did I already say that?). It's so good that my chocolate-loving 5-year-old asked to go back before they close for the season for more pineapple Dole whip, because it in her words "It's even more yummy than chocolate!" Hurry, & stop by before they close for the season on October 8.“

“Quiet ice cream place stuck in a strip mall but find it!! Ice cream is delish with lots of kid friendly flavors, great prices and the employee was patient, kind and helpful to my 2 littles.Kid-friendliness: Kind to children, kid sizes, kid flavors, candy eye balls, sprinkles“
“HOLY COW, this is a hidden treasure of a food spot in Oak Lawn! The atmosphere of the store is amazing and cozy. Great menu selection and the food is out of this world! I ordered the Chicken Burrito Suizo and a mango Fresca and everything is made fresh and truly made with love and passion!! The rice and beans were some of the best I’ve ever had too! Great job and will be back over and over again!!“
“The shop is located right downtown elmhurst. Perfect for those evening summer strolls! The customer service is great. The people working just want to provide you with a great experience and give you some good ice cream. The treats themselves are on the pricier side, but they are really good as well. We have had sorbet and ice cream and both were really good.“
“More than helpful on the different sweets,Cannoli's were delicious and made to order, fresh! Everyone friendly, took my order with a smile...and a cookie for my grandson! :)Kid-friendliness: Person who took my order offered my grandson a cookie, sweet.“
“This is a gem, and I'm lucky to live near it. You don't find an ice cream shop like this in every town. Friendly staff, an excellent product, and a charming atmosphere. Bring your out of town guests for a treat, bring the kids on a hot day, or just get a little something for yourself - you won't regret it.“
“Great ice cream but there a lot more on the menue, this is my go to spot for a quick breakfast on the go, my favorite is their yogurt with fresh fruit and granola and a nice strong cup of coffee to go or enjoy it there while watching a morning show. Their home made ice cream is delicious and it always helps to have great customer service, the owner Victor is super nice and is always so kind when I come and visit.“

“They say I am the only customer who can make their snow in yogurt base and logically there is an extra charge which I do not refuse and I do not even care about the price the only thing that happened is that when serving me in that glass it does not account for packaged balls Since they charge me at the price of yogurt, logically it shouldn't have air bags, and if those are orders from the owner to serve snowballs in a yogurt glass and charge them at the price of yogurt, then he doesn't want my money, not my business, I don't KNOW. If you understand me..... The owners......“
“I just went in there thinking it will be , I don't know, but it is like a palace of pure pleasure. The staff was welcoming and the sweets are unbelievable. Guys don't pass this place by, it is a gem. BTW I never post a review but for this I had to.“
“Insanely yummy, creamy and massive soft serve with chocolate hardshell dip on waffle cone (with a little up charge).My friends enjoyed their scooped ice creams (probably a pint's worth per 2 scoop order) too!Prices are very reasonable for the amount of ice cream we got. Service / assembly line was organized and friendly so the line moved quickly.I'm so glad this ice cream joint is no where near my home for the sake of my thighs and belly!“
“My favorite ice cream place for now!! The ice cream is so delicious, creamy, and fresh!! Every flavor is so flavorful and yummy! I enjoyed the Boston cream ice cream, dark chocolate, and mint chip! I would 100% recommend this place! Customer service is great too!“

“Service was great. Had our ice cream served in freshly made waffle cones. They were still warm. Tried caramel collision and it was the best caramel ice cream I've ever had. Caramel ice cream with ribbons of caramel and chocolate covered caramel pieces. Absolute heaven.“
“I was craving cupcakes so I stopped by to try it out. Upon entering the girl at the register was very nice and welcoming. They had quite a few options to choose from and I decided on the Oreo and hostess cupcakes. Both were yummy and hit the spot. Since they have a wide variety of flavors I definitely will come back and try more.“
“A great DQ drive thru to get a cone dipped in sprinkles!!! Fast service, delicious ice cream and soooooo many sprinkles! This is an old school drive thru Dairy Queen and you could get whatever cone or Blizzard you want. I have not much to say except for how fantastic it is to go and get your desired ice cream of choice. Can't beat it.“
“Open seasonally. Neighborhood burger and treat stand. Vintage signage and seating inside. Summer treats for all ages.We've always had good counter service from the people working there. Usually teens/college age staff that does a great job.Kid-friendliness: There is seating inside to be a bit more secure. Outside seating available but in parking lot.Snack foods (burgers/fries) but we always go for the frozen treats.“
“Sticks & Cones is an wonderful addition to Oak Park! A great location with plenty of street parking. The ice cream is phenomenal. The frozen yogurt too!! They have a bunch of other treats to snack on as well. A special surprise of an arcade with your favorite 80’s games await you in the back - which you can play for free. We can’t wait to come back ❤️“
“The best churros place, it reminded me of Guadalajara!Excellent flavor and price.I will definitely returnThe taste of snow is authentic…The best churros place!Excellent flavor and price.I'll definitely be backThe taste of the ice cream is authentic...“
“hands down BEST CRUMBL LOCATION IN THE CHICAGOLAND AREA!!! We have a store literally 3 minutes from our house and we still drive to Oakbrook because this store has the best selections and the staff is always on point and very inviting!! Been coming here since they opened up and would not go elsewhere!“
“Great place to get ice cream or floats, and hang with friends & family. Service is quick and staff is friendly. Been here plenty of times when I have late night ice cream cravings. They are usually packed in the summer, so be patient. Usually I rotate between a root beer (Sprecher on tap too) float, PB Oreo concrete, or a strawberry banana sundae. They used to have orange soda floats but they no longer carry orange soda. Bring it back!“
“I've been tempted to stop at this place every time I drive by, and today was the day. I was immediately struck by how spotless this place is upon arrival. It is exceptionally clean and well-organized, and every compartment where the ice cream is located is spotless. I received prompt and excellent treatment from the woman who assisted me. I didn't feel hurried out of there, and she took her time to make my order. Depending on how busy they are, places like these will typically rush you out and leave a mess everywhere. However, she provided excellent service, and I will definitely use her again.“
“Decided to stop here after picking up my son.. now our go to place!! Ice cream is superb! Nachos w/peppers amazing!! Banana splits!! So much goodness in this location! I’ll definitely be trying elotes next !! The fresh fruit is also great!!!! While it is a little pricey it’s definitely good!“
“Excellent food, service and personnel. I've had breakfast, lunch and dinner here, they are consistent with quality and food preparation. Carryout was great as well. I love their tortas, tacos and dinner plates. They also have wonderful Lent specials right now. The quesabirrias are sensational ♡“
“Pro: Tons of ice cream options, Spanish speaking crew, bathroom onsiteCon: Paid street parking, low agua fresca optionsSwing by Disney's birth home and saw this place in the Hispanics area of Chicago. Got a banana strawberry smoothie, the staff scooped the ice cream and blended it. Was expecting juice and milk, but it's a nice touch. Mangonada was just as delightfully as what I could get in Southern California. Legit place.“
“Amazing. Robert and Jessica are so nice and accommodated our wedding so amazingly. All the guests loved the fruits with chamoy, it was a big hit. And they stayed after to accommodate more guests. It was much appreciated and I would definitely recommend them for a “
“Their ingredients and burgers are always fresh. Customer service is off the charts. I love eating the Culver's deluxe with a side of onion rings. And for free dessert I fill out a survey and get a scoop of custard (usually flavor of the day). Delish!“
“We pass this place on the way to the airport each time. We weren't able to get ice cream on our vacation so this seemed like a good spot. The frozen custard was really good. My tin cup was excellent, my daughter's shake and my wife's concrete. It was a nice surprise but I see now why there is a line to get in. I have a feeling we will be stopping in more often either to or from the airport.“
“It was late and I decided to walk over and have a cheeseburger /w fries. Getting there was easy. On my way back home it got a little DARK. Need to remember Riverside has NO street lights. I had to walk more cautiously. . Tiptoe through the tulips. Ha“
“A great range of quality ice creams, fast and friendly service and good value. They even can do Pup Cups for your four-legged friends. Small indoor seating area but perfectly comfortable. The ‘small ice cream’ in a waffle cone was my choice and certainly was not disappointed. Easy street parking immediately outside. Looking forward to our next visit.“

“Stopped in prior to an appointment down the road at Hines VA. Absolutely amazing customer service, (I wish I asked for the employees name, my receipt says Liz) but she was the friendliest, warmest, most pleasant person! I ordered fresas con crema and agua fresca de sandia, both are so delicious! I will definitely be visiting this place again! Thank you again for a wonderful experience!!“
“Oreo ice cream was good, tortas de jamón were tasty, Takis con queso ? as expected. The only negative is the horachata was off on the flavoring. Not sure if it needed to be stirred or was just an older batch but wasn't impressed by that. Otherwise nice little place, the girl servicing us was very polite and pleasant. Would def stop by again.“
“My friend and I went here after the movies and decided to try their ice cream. The store itself is small but they have so much to offer from ice cream, candies, fudge, caramel apples, etc. It's location is perfectly located in downtown Elmhurst right next to the movie theatre. It was so hard to choose a flavor but I went with the All-American Two Berry Pie. Talk about YUM! The ice cream itself was so creamy and smooth. The texture was absolutely perfect. In the vanilla ice cream, there was a nice blend of strawberry, Blueberry, and sugared pie crust pieces. It was by far one of the best ice cream flavors I have ever had. The only downside is that they are quite pricy. It was $13 and some odd change for 2 single scoops in cake cones. I personally think that is pretty steep and the portion is just average. I cannot wait to come back to try more flavors as I am a ice cream lover!“
“Updated review 4/16/2024:My previous review was a 1 star review based on unprofessional management. So far since then I haven't seen much hostility toward the employees unless it's from impatient customers who struggle to comprehend that they're not the only people waiting.Anyways, I've received exceptional service lately. Mainly from a very kind tall man with a beard and slightly longer hair. I wish I would've asked for his name.There's also another taller man who has a little stubble and glasses, he always greets me and calls me sir, which is cool because I'm actually transgender and I get a confidence boost each time I see him. Thank you. :)The food has improved as well, and their speed is top notch. I will admit Friday night was very busy BUT the employees handled it very well and professionally.Thank you for your hard work, guys. Anyone who says "fast food isn't hard work" is SO wrong. It's a very stressful environment and it's clear you have amazing employees who work extremely hard to keep the quality high and the wait time low. :)“
“We love Premos, they have delicious soft serve ice cream.Very popular place, with sometimes large queues outside ( it does move fast )Didn't give five stars because of how quickly it melts. But it's an Oak Lawn staple, and well worth a visit. We normally don't eat dessert when we go out to eat, and come here afterwards instead.“
“Yum yum and more yum! This is a Clarendon Hills staple that never gets old. It's perfect for a family ice cream outing, date nights, and even private events. Every time I enter the store I am greeting by warm staff members who are eager to serve. Don't miss out on this wonderful ice cream experience!“
“Wendy, the owner, is wonderful. She bakes wonderful cookies, cakes, and coffee cakes and makes a variety of taffy grapes, usually green grapes with the ends dipped in peanuts or strawberry Good-Humor-Bar-type coating, as well as chocolate-dipped items. The shop carries a variety of ice creams and frozen treats.Vegetarian options: Some non-dairy ice-cream options are usually available.Dietary restrictions: Some non-dairy ice-cream options are usually available.Kid-friendliness: The owner decorates the large windows for many seasons, especially around Christmas. Outdoor seating is available in the summer, and older children ride their bikes there.“
