★☆☆☆☆ 1.0 Jonathan Davis · Oct 2025

terrible service. the ice cream is really good it makes me crave it, but i DREAD having to interact with those girls. they’re rude, they don’t acknowledge you and take their sweet time serving you while they chat it up with each other. there’s been times they whisper towards each other and laugh then to turn around and be shitty towards you. it’s not a nice feeling! I’ve gone a couple times because of the product but today was the last straw. the girl that gave me service was thankfully not one of the rude ones but the one that rung me out has always been rude. i asked her for a cup holder as she was putting the money in the register and i was putting the cups on it. she passed me my change, i said thanks and she walked into the kitchen. i held the cup holder the whole ride home so i didn’

Stopped here after the park and walked in and the music was blasting. I'm not sure if the door even dingged when it opened. We waited at the counter for service for several minutes before being helped. And you can see the ladies in the back talking. I didn't order nothing but my wife got a banana split. She said it was decent.

Small little family owned business and homemade ice cream. Super delicious and great variety of ice creams of different flavors like Almond Joy, Ferrero Rocher, Mazapan, Gansito & Others. Also a good variety of food options like Elotes & nachos, chilindrinas

★☆☆☆☆ 1.0 Victor Garcia Jr · Sep 2025

I went on my own last week and was treated somewhat rudely by the staff but I chalked it up to them probably being tired. My girlfriend and I went earlier this week and we were never acknowledged when we entered. We stood around for several minutes while the staff talked. The music was loud and obnoxious and they even turned it up more while we waited. They eventually took our orders but they were not in the least bit friendly or courteous. We will NOT return nor will we recommend this place to any friends or family.👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼

Their fresas con crema has gone up so much. I used to pay maybe like $8, and recently I paid $10 for a cup!! Other places like Tepalca has them for $5.99.
