“First time having Ralph's and I loved it! Got out of a movie after they had already closed for the night so assumed I wouldn't be getting any but the friendly girl behind the counter came up to the window and asked if I wanted anything anyway which was really sweet and unexpected! Loved the combo flavor I got and enjoyed each bite! The perfect summer treat!“
“I don't typically like ice cream. I know that's weird but I'm seriously always cold. I get chills on the beach. I should probably get this checked out, but who has the time?Anyway. My family was in town and the kids love ice cream so we gave Spoons a go. My husband wanted a strawberry milkshake but they only have vanilla and chocolate shakes. The sweetheart at the counter made my husband a raspberry swirl milkshake. I'm not sure if you guys have ever tasted heaven but this is it. "Can I just have a little taste?" turned into me drinking the entire thing.Spoons is worth the wait and every penny. I can't wait to go back!“
“Once I tried crumbl while away I've been hooked. Been to this location 2x and safe to say I'm addicted! It smells amazing when you walk in! You can order on the app for pick up. Cookies are always fresh and the workers are friendly.“
“Great little local ice cream shop! We stopped in on an unseasonably hot October day to get cones. Rainbow sherbet and chocolate chocolate chip both hit the spot.Good value for the cones and the ice cream was good. One thing I wish they had would be tables or benches.Kid-friendliness: A very kid friendly establishment, although there’s no customer bathroom inside or seating.“
“First time here wanted to know what the hype was about, got a 4 pack.2 chocolate chip... good though chips didn't taste like semi sweet, they were sweet.1 donut.... good...tasted just like a melted donut1 brownie, good.They are good cookies, limited on base choice as the others selections are toppings on the base.Crunchy on the edges, top, bottom and moist in the center. Very addictive.They hold up well in the freezer and can be eaten straight from the freezer as it doesn't turn into a brick.It's a 5 dollar cookie which is too expensive to enjoy frequently.Parking: Its located in a strip mall“
“I'm so surprised I hadn't written a review for Marvel before, especially since I have been here a couple times because it's pretty close to my sister's house. It's definitely great value compared to a lot of other ice cream shops. Since the last time I was there they've added more flavor options too. When I went recently, I ordered a small cup of half pistachio/half dulce de leche with the Marvel mix on top (rainbow sprinkles/chocolate crunchies). It hit the spot, although it did not seem as creamy as it was the last time I had it. Service was ok, not the friendliest though. If I'm around the area, I may pop back.“
“Stopped here while I was in town for a work function and needed a sweet treat but wanted something that was local. The slightly older lady with brown hair and glasses who was working was super friendly and welcoming. I tried a few different flavors, as I couldn't decide and wow!!.. they were all delicious. I landed on the sea salt caramel flavor as it was fantastic and so creamy. I got a small bowl of that at a good price with great service. Definitely worth the pit stop! Sorry, I forgot to take a photo since I ate the ice cream so quickly!!!“
“I love the variety of gelatos at Dolce Gelato. All the flavors I've had are delicious. I like the fact that they keep the gelatos with nuts separate from the ones that do not have nuts.I don't have to worry about cross contamination because when I tell the person's serving me that my son has a nut allergy, they take care in keeping my sons order separate if needed.I have never had a negative experience at this gelato shop. The workers are professional and friendly. The place is clean pleasant to sit and eat your gelato.“
“Beautiful interior and decor! Really enjoy the ambitious here, it's a comfy spot for families and friends to sit and enjoy. Had the Chicken Tikka as "appetizers" and the Steaks as the "main course". Everything was rich and juicy! The Tomahawk as beautifully cooked (medium is theee way to go) and the side Mac n cheese was amazing!“
“Rolled ice cream is always a fun treat! They had lots of flavor options and I chose piña colada. All were $8 and came with unlimited toppings! I didn't realize at first the toppings were unlimited or I would have gotten more! I saw that they even toast marshmallows with a torch for you upon request as a topping. Ice cream was delicious and the staff friendly. They had a few tables inside and a bench outside to enjoy your ice cream. Parking could be a little tricky, as it was street parking only but we were able to easily find a spot around the corner.“
“Absolutely delicious! The girls working are so nice offering more syrups in my coffee if needed. I’m telling all my friends about Cafe Bella. I think I found my new hang out spot.Pictured is the birthday cake muffin and birthday cake latteParking: Parking in the lot can be hard but parking on Merrick Rd was easy to find at the time I went (9:30am)“
“Wonderful ice cream for humans and our canine baby! We stopped for a treat earlier, tasted coconut, German chocolate and raspberry ice cream . Fantastic fresh with natural flavors. Friendly service and especially catered to our boxer Izzy.“
“Carvel is literally a taste of my childhood.Whenever a birthday or another event arose that "required" a cake, we always got a carvel cake with the famous crunchies. Well to this day, my childhood carvel still exists in the same locale and i enjoy their cakes and other icey treats just as much. And Wednesdays are especially the day to go if you get the urge, because they are 2 for 1 on sundaes.. CANT BEAT THAT!“
“This spot is truly a hidden gem in the Westbury area. The essence of Nana's is that of an ice cream parlor and coffee shop with baked goods. However they also serve beer and cocktails alongside some quick eats such as burgers, and special menu items such as gumbo or shrimp & grits. On Wednesday evenings they have a fun Trivia Night which is free to join. Nana's is a slice of New Orleans hospitality in the middle of Nassau County.“
“Excellent place, food was good, neatly prepared. Price is also fantastic for the amount of food.Dietary restrictions: Vegan, vegetarian.Parking: Parking lot available for free.Kid-friendliness: Great for kids to be here.Wheelchair accessibility: Ramp to get here.“
“We’ve been ordering take out often. I broke my foot so cooking meals has been a challenge. We have been ordering quite often and are meals are being delivered hot & Delicious ? The ice cream sundae’s we’ve been treating ourselves to at the end of are meals are always Fantastic!! I highly recommend Friendly’s of Massapequa Park New York. THANK YOU & ENJOY?“
“Stopped by the other day with the family for a evening treat. Super friendly staff and the place is very clean!!! I also like the fact that they have tables inside and outside to sit and have your ice there. Instead of leaving with your ice and it melts away while you drive home. LOL I recommend this location !!!“
“The owner & his staff , especially Brianna , go above & beyond ! I’m always last minute & Brianna has accommodate my special orders with a smile 2 x’s in the last 10 days !!Thank you for making my granddaughter happy with her Bluey cakes !“
“I've been coming here for more than I want to admit and makes me feel old. I'm going to keep this very honest in respect to using common sense/speculation/as well as responding to some of the comments on here. We haven't been there in quite some time...surprised to see the place redecorated. My wife loved it...I understand it. I'm one of those people that walk into a pizzeria and see faded red Formica tables, benches and dated dingy decor as a good thing. I was never bothered by aesthetics as it seems seasoned and perfected like the food im about to indulge in. The old international cafe had a plethora of food, nothing that wow'd you BUT was consistently good even though they had a great variety. The freshly made waffles, variety of gelato and fresh whip cream needs no review. People who complain about noise should just stay home with their mask on. You are talking about an open place restaurant that is a staple of a community for decades. Why in 2024 are people so miserable to see others so happy. Place is jammed back...what do you expect it to sound like? People complaining about kids are the same $hit parents who rather hand their kid a iPad instead of letting them socialize. When we go there we expect it to be busy, loud, kids be kids, great food, great service and pay cash. With new owner ship comes many things and one them was the menu. We were thrown off since we were expecting our usual order. A lot of their items on the menu can be easily replicated at home. When we go out to eat we only order what we don't make for the most part. My wife ordered their Chicken Tenders which was made fresh as they were chicken cutlets cut down. I thought it was OK my wife was not happy bc the crispy bread outside came off the chicken itself. We also got wings and beer battered onion rings. Onion rings were great and wings are wings. We don't deep fry in the house for many reasons...we never ordered anything deep fried at the old spot either. Got their loaded potato skins which my wife enjoyed as well. Reviews about the new whip cream being OFF in taste is correct. Gelato tasted the same to us which was good. Price seemed fair for what we got compared to others places we have gone too. Best of luck to the new owners and staff. I honestly don't think we will be back bc happy wife happy life Our waitress was PHENOMENAL“
“Carvel ice cream cakes bring out the childhood nostalgia in me!I did not spend much time in store but the older gentleman who attended to me was super helpful. He made suggestions for best results before serving and offered to decorate the cake further for us.The cake was as I remembered and I was transported back to my childhood and savoured each mouthful.Carvel has my heart!“
“He said his name is Ralphhhhhhh! With a 189 locations your sure to find a Ralph's Italian ice some place close! Great Italian ices with endless flavors to choose from & also serving soft serve ice cream Ralph's has it all, its a perfect destination to satisfy my sweettooth!“
“What a beautiful place! Delicious food, great variety and famtadrict service! Our waitress was kind and attentive.It was me, my husband and 3 kids. The food came out fast (if you have kids to know how important that is). As soon as we sat down she gave us coffee. We were well taken care of here, I can't wait to come back and try lunch.“
“The only place in the area to go when you're craving Italian Gelato! Their gelato more closely resembles gelato I've had in Italy, compared to other places who do not specialize in this.The staff and owners are helpful. Even though there are a million signs saying "only two samples per person", they were kind enough to give us more samples for our kids when it wasn't busy. The area is not the best for me, but if it's convenient for you, I'd definitely check them out!“
“I have never been to Chip City before but I heard some ladies talking about it at work. So of course I HAD to go! I went in on the night before Christmas Eve to the store in Merrick and the sales associate was so sweet, helpful and easy to talk to. There weren’t many flavors to choose from as I went late in the evening. Everyone at dinner on Christmas Eve said these cookies were better than Crumble!“
“The workers are very nice as well as the soft served creamy Ice cream. The service is amazing however, sometimes the company runs slow when like they were lowdown on workers, during my experience had to wait 30 minutes for someone. The atmosphere is ok it could use some work to really represent what carvel looked like back then in the 90s/late 2000's overall 15/10Vegetarian options: none :) i hate em vegansDietary restrictions: Ask for low fat ice creamKid-friendliness: Very much kid frinedlinessWheelchair accessibility: Accessibility is easy just as k for a accessibility bathroom“
“First off, let's talk flavors! Marhsalls offers an impressive array of mouthwatering flavors.From classic favorites like chocolate and vanilla to unique creations like pistachio, there's something for everyone here. And let me tell you, each scoop is packed with flavor and made with high-quality ingredients.And let's not forget about the homemade Ice crasm cakes!! they're an absolute game-changer for any celebration!!“
“This ice cream shop is one of our favorite spots in EM. My friends travel from queens to get ice cream from here. They have flavors that we love Guava, Passionfruit, Mango, Tamarind, etc. Everything that you can't find in a normal spot. If the flavors that I listed are too much, it's ok they have normal ice cream too. The service is individuals, but the staff are very attentive to your needs. So don't rush them.“
“Sediqa and the rest of the staff were amazing!! Super inviting, hardworking and kept the super long line moving quick! Super friendly staff it was my first time here and excited to come back! Will be recommending this place because of them and the hospitality! They were outstanding - new favorite sweet shop :))“
“ALWAYS!!! Great food ,great service. The menu items are plentiful and everything is good. They have a big party room which is how I got hooked on their food and service going there for my Niece's sons christening.This is a great place for friends, date night , family, and party'“
“Excellent dessert treats at value prices (especially when it's Twister Tuesday or the end of the season clearance). I just wish some of their options weren't always unavailable. When you come here, make sure you have a plan B and C for what you want as their stock is not consistent.“
“(Translated by Google) I love everything they sell there, the people who serve have been kind, the place is spacious, clean and well organized, I have also visited Dulce Mania I and they have also been very kind.(Original)Me encanta todo lo que venden ahí, las personas que atienden han sido amables, el lugar es amplio, limpio y bien organizado, también he visitado Dulce Mania I y de igual manera han sido muy amables.“
“Nice find on a hot summer day. Adventurous menu with ample flavor combinations. Compliment your sweet treat with fluffy waffle sticks that pack a crunch. Service was standard, employees had low energy or seemed to not want to be there so that could improve. Me and my fiancée would go back to try some more for sure“
“I went here with my family to get a cake for my moms birthday. All the small cakes (which we wanted) were taken (as it was Easter). A very nice woman (I didn't catch her name) came to us and said that she would give us a cake for a lower price. Very very pleased with customer service. Would give more stars if I could.“
“Would be a 5 but there are no public bathrooms which seems sketchy to me because I thought all dine in establishmentts (they had seating prior to COVID) had to provide bathrooms. Prices compared to portions is insane but that's just the times we live in.“
“The employees have been welcoming and friendly at every visit. I get the same order every time but I've been charged varying prices. It has been brought to their attn but there's never really a solid explanation as to why the price changes every time.“
“They Ran Out Of Soft Serve Which Was A Downer BUT The ONLY Employee There Handled It Like A Champ, Was Super Nice & Gave Us Hard Ice Cream For The Famous BYGO Sale...The Store Was VERY Clean...NOT Too Long Of A Wait Either...Overall A Nice Outing For The Family...We Enjoyed Our Delicious Sundaes!!!“
“I had the best experience at Carvel today! My server-extraordinare Jessica gave me world-class service and kindly helped me pick out the perfect Fudgy the Whale cake! Def coming back! Her boss Amanda was stellar as well! Best Carvel in Nassau!“
“Came here after dinner this place did not disappoint love their selection of flavors. They also have regular ice cream as well. There’s a small coffee machine set up as well if you’d like coffee ample room for large parties to sit definitely recommend for kids and adults as well.“
“Not sure why these other reviews care what the store looks Like seriously? Your not eating the store your getting ice cream to go..Sounds like a bunch of "Karen's" ( like omg) for sure don't like it there don't go!Ice cream is the best around I couldn't care if it was on a stand outside get it go home and eat it..Guys trying to make a living!“

“Love the flavors of the ices and ice creams. The staff is really nice and they work hard. Gotta tip them. We had the specialty sundaes only once and we both thought they were way too heavy on toppings and sweet sauces and not enoughice cream... made us a little nauseous, so we'll stick to the basics. Also disappointing how some of the flavors run out, but they have so many great options that the pain doesn't last long.“
“I am a Shake Shack fan! Love their milkshakes - custard! And of course - their burgers but I prefer their chicken shack more... This location is busy! Just like any other Shake Shack I guess but... wow, mobile order will save your life fr! We mobile ordered and was able to shop a bit and then come back to pick up our food. Convenient by car, LI peeps... everything is orderly, didn't have to worry about missing items like the city... which is great! Clean and lots of seatings. It's a Shake Shack - you know what you're getting! Yum! #longislandlife #burgereats“
“I go with my wife to this great restaurant quite a bit! This is my favorite spot to grab a bite. I visit this place regularly. The food is just great, the team is welcoming and the charge is reasonable. I enjoy meeting in this spot for a rich meal.“
“I was so happy to hear that Carvel now has NO SUGAR ADDED ICE CREAM!!! What wonderful new especially for those who are pre-diabetic and must watch there sugar. What a delight and it was delicious also. Looking forward to getting my dessert at Carvel.“
“Chocolate Mousse Chip creme ice is my fave. I get CMC 9 out of 10 times. Caribbean Splash water ice is outrageous. Can't go wrong with Cotton Candy ice cream. Parking sucks and Merrick Ave sucks but it's Ralph's! they can do no wrong!“
“I've been going to Carvel my entire life. If you ask me, I'll tell you their ice cream cakes have only gotten better over the years. The perfect combination of vanilla and chocolate ice cream with chocolate crunchies. There are many ice cream cakes out there. Carvel has the best!“
“The ices are always delicious, but I’m giving these 5 stars to the girls that worked when I went today. There was a huge family ahead of me and the mom was awful, difficult, and frustrating to everyone behind us. The girls behind the counter were so kind even though the woman was insane and it shows how professional they are.“
“My husband ordered my birthday cake at the carvel on Hicksville Road. He ordered a few days ahead of time. He went to pick up the cake and it completely incorrect. They offered 5 dollars off and said they could not have the correct cake done today. He left and called Carvel on Park Blvd. They had it ready in 30 minutes. It may be further from our home but they were able to accommodate very quickly. We will be going there from now on.“
“This place is a hidden gem and features some of the best ice cream/ gelato I've ever had on Long Island. I got the campfire crunch swirly, and it was delicious. Ice cream was super cremy and fresh, and they put the perfect amount of blended toppings in the swirly.The shop featured about 20 gelato flavors to choose from and also had a nice expresso bar/candy station in the back.The service was nice and friendly.Overall, this place is a must try!“
