“ We ordered 2 shakes (Gansito and nuez) and the flavors were so good! They had so many unique flavors. The vibes of the place were nice also. They played good music, cute lighting and decor, and they sold other novelties. Just understand that the prices are higher, but definitely worth it for the ice cream and shakes. ”
“ Everything about this place is great. I took my daughter here for here birthday. Fruit is fresh, the snacks are creative and fun.... Most importantly DELICIOUS! The store is bright and cheerful. The employees are friendly and kind. Everything is priced appropriately. We will be coming back often. ”
“ Family in town wanted dessert so we tried this place. Funnel cake with fresh fruit and ice cream was perfect! The paleta variety is great with some unusual flavors. The Fruit cups and churro split were some of the favorites. Their pricing and quality were better than a lot of their competitors. Service was very good and location clean. ”
“ Clean, fast service and lots of choices that makes it hard to decide what to drink and snack on. Spacious and just hope they would always keep it organized and orderly. Kids of all ages would surely enjoy each single visit here. ”
“ We were on this side of San Antonio, we had our grandchildren and told them we would take them for ice cream. Place is in a shopping center. Plenty of parking. Plenty to choose from, snacks and ice cream. Funnel cakes, aquas frescas, piñatas. Staff is super friendly and helpful. Casual kinda place, great place to get out of the heat. Andrew had the Oreo shake, this thing came with an ice cream sandwich on top, two Oreo cookies and topped with whipped cream. Desi had a plain funnel cake, I'm glad she did, I wanted to taste the funnel cake and not all the toppings. Next time we will get toppings, the funnel cake was done perfectly. Maria, Desi, and I had a mangonada, yummy. There are plenty of other things to try here. Plenty to choose from. ”
“ Súper rico todo. Buen ambiente and great service. Loved it!!!!!!!!!! Will be definitely coming back ”
“ OM....GGGGGG, This place is off the charts! Snacks of every kind, Fresh fruit cups, ice cream, candy, palletas, I could go on and on! Don't sleep on the conchitas, agua frescas, and mangonadas!! It was so good, we didn't even pause to take pictures ”
“ Cute and clean place to grab a sweet treat. So many options it was hard to choose. The strawberries and cream was good. Small size was 8. Decent amount of strawberries not just cream! ”
“ We love this place. The servers always answer our questions and adapt things to any fun requests: add coconut ice cream to a mangonada parfait with Tajin and chamoy candies ... yes! We always get the hot Cheetos preparados, which I sometimes crave: hot Cheetos, cheese sauce, crema, queso fresca, hot sauce, and pick your corn (yellow or white). Sundaes, shakes, takilocos, fruit cups ... it's all here and crazy good. ”
