“In town for my daughters graduation from Bootcamp! We came in late, long drive, the Airbnb we got had no air on all day so it was 98 in the house when we got in so we decided to go grab a quick bite. We was a little unsure at first but so glad we came here! My husband and I split a Cuban and my daughters girlfriend got a Turkey sub… both was extremely good… the shredded pork on the Cuban has an amazing Smokey flavor. They were extremely nice even though we did go in close to closing (we did take it to go) .. we were definitely impressed!“

The combination of delicious pizza and thrilling casino games made for a memorable night out. The pizza was mouthwatering, with a perfect crust and a wide range of toppings to choose from. The casino had a great selection of games, and the atmosphere was lively and exciting. The staff were friendly and attentive, making the whole evening even more enjoyable. I highly recommend Nia’s for anyone looking to savor some incredible pizza and have a little fun!!“

“The cookies are DELICIOUS! The company tries to switch up the flavors weekly and always does a great job deciding on new flavors. The cookies are very large too, and we split one between 3 people. They are approximately $6 per cookie, so a little expensive but worth it. I highly recommend trying this place! (Pictured is the Tres Leches Cookie)“

“Pros: Donuts made fresh to order, so you get them warm! Many varieties to choose from.Cons: Their donuts are on the cake-y side. Not my cup of tea. And they don't have filled donuts like Boston creams. We got there around 2pm when the place was empty. Service was prompt (duh) but I wouldn't call it warm.Since I prefer raised or filled donuts, I probably won't be coming back.“

“The Ice cream and candy was amazing. It is really cute and the service is great. My only small problem is that the ice cream was to sweet and the actual flavor did not really shine through. The cost is a little high for the amount of ice cream you get. Overall great experience and would definitely go back again.Kid-friendliness: The staff is incredibly nice and helped my kids. My kids get scared when talking to strangers, but the staff was patient with them. I want to thank this staff member very much. You made this all much easier that it would have been.“

I had a the blueberry as a malt. Proper flavor levels for the blueberry and the sweetness, not overly sweet. Great formulation, thick but it would move through the straw. Solid place. Service?

It is kind of tucked away in the back corner of the complex but tons of signs with clean directions. Tons of toppings to choose from. Price is by cup which I like so you know exactly how you are paying. Check out their social Media as they have deals like half price days. Worker was super kind and had lots of energy. There are a few table options inside and options outside too. Hope to be back soon!“

The staff are really nice and allow you to take your time without getting annoyed. Ive gone through the drive thru twice with the same results. Food is amazing, inside is clean.

“I will say I'm not the biggest fan of crumble cookie. I'm more of an insomnia gal, but I wanted to try out their new flavors. I ordered two cookies, the banana bread and peanut butter cookies & cream. Both were actually really good. If I had to pick one, I think I would go with the banana bread. The service was fast, I ordered at the kiosk at the front, then someone brought the cookie to the front before I could finish taking my pictures. The server opened the box to make sure I was happy with the way the cookies looked. Once I told her I was happy she gave me my cookies to go. There is no place to sit on the inside of the bakery.“

The girl with blond highlights and the girl with dark hair are so sweet! On vacation I went to a gelato place, thier gelato was FULL OF SUGAR all I tasted was sugar but here I actually taste the flavor. The flavors are so good.

“This place is all about timing and what employee you get. This time around was amazing. Was it because it was cold and most people aren't trying to eat ice cream? Maybe, but anyways it worked in my favor. Also, I just learned they have horchata and let me tell you something: horchata for the win! The horchata had the winning consistency, flavor, and sweetness to it. I'm excited I have another go to horchata place. The employee we got was super friendly and funny. She didn't rush us, answered our million and one questions and joked around with us. She even suggested ice cream combos. They have so many different flavors you just have to come back because they are pretty delicious. It gives the feel of homemade ice cream. I decided on the arroz ice cream. I absolutely love this flavor. They also serve snacks and tortas. It's more than just an ice cream shop.“

“This place is so awesome. I love taking the kids here. They have a bunch of different flavors to try. They have some ice creams that are milk/cream base and some that are water based. They also sell other foods and drinks here like walking taco in a bag and fresh fruit chamoy with tajin. They had baked goods for sale. I ordered the dragon fruit with was good and sweet. It's one of my favorites next to cucumber ice cream. I tried a new flavor that had passion fruit, mango, tropical mix. It was pretty good. The bright colors inside of the restaurant transports you to a tropical island somewhere, and makes you forget it's 40 degrees outside. The service is always so awesome here. If you see a flavor and are curious about it, they let you try it out. I would definitely recommend trying La Michoacana if you're in the area.“

“I stumbled upon this place by accident but the crisp white and black colors from inside drew me in. It is bright, spacious and very well organized and clean. The customer service is BEYOND spectacular. I arrived just shortly after they opened and was walking around, the gentleman was kind and had a plethora of knowledge on the toffee and Gelato products. He gave me the history of the business and even about the toffee and co-business with the Gelato. His honest and product knowledge was superior. He demonstrated he knows his clients and product. The Gelato was out of this world, tasted like the Gelato in Italy because it really was produced by the Italians and the same way. We love toffee and they had numerous variations of flavors and chocolate collaborations. The coffee was spit on too. The quality of every product is truly superior like their customer service and very generous portions. Pricing is spot on for what you get. This place is worth the 30cminite drive from Glenview. Nothing compares to their flavors of Gelato and toffee selection. Lots of sitting room to socialize, read or work on your computer.“

Scoops and kettle Ice Cream Shop • $
6170 W Grand Ave, Gurnee - 7.25 miles

“Depending on how well you know ice cream, Scoops & Kettle is a real treat in the mall. Never had the popcorn here which I heard is yummy but Chocolate Shoppe is superior quality ice cream.From the neighboring state of WI, if you've never tried S&K then you're in for some wonderful ice cream being Chocolate Shoppe is the best from America's dairy land.Definitely not cheap with food prices rising nationwide but my kids are well worth it. In any ice cream shop you'll ever visit, as soon as you see the CS emblem then you know you gotta go for it.Located in Gurnee Mills, this ice cream is easy competition against a couple of other high end ice cream parlors in Gurnee: Oberweis and Coldstone.If ever in the mall and in the mood for some deelish ice cream, S&K is a must. Better yet if you're in the mood for a cold treat and don't plan on browsing the mall, still worth the stop in.“

Cold Stone Creamery Ice Cream Shop • $$
7105 Grand Ave #2C, Gurnee - 8.11 miles

“Always a great treat whether I'm with the family or not and especially on a hot summer day/night, Cold Stone really hits the spot. But even when it gets cold out, still fun to go to even during a brutal Chicago area winter.This is probably the one ice cream parlor around compared to others that has a huge emphasis on toppings/creations which is definitely their strong point.Always a great selection of flavors between their regular year round and seasonal flavors, prices still seem reasonable although the high-end ice cream chain has never really been cheap and customer service remains consistently good in an always spiffy clean/sanitized atmosphere.CSC obviously does battle with competitors such as Oberweis up the road and Graeter's. When it comes to taste and quality, this place lives up to the price and my kids are well worth it anytime of the year.Only con (which doesn't drag down a 5⭐️ rating) about this place is the parking lot which can be greatly limited especially on wknd nights when nearby Giordano's gets packed. You may find yourself having to park east across the street from Starbucks and walking a bit of distance.“
