1st time here. The young lady that helped me was very helpful. I asked her which ice cream was the best and she showed me a couple. She said i could sample if i wanted to but I decided on the tequila patron ice cream shake. Love this shake. Also ordered a churros. Will definitely be back.

Found this place on a whim after stopping at Hot N Now while on a road-trip with my daughter. At first we weren’t certain it was open given how dark things looked from where we parked, but we are glad we checked it out. The ice cream flavors offered are not the usual fair, and they have decent toppings available as well. The overall vibe and feel is great, and made our trip from the Grandville area an even better experience.

My wife and I stopped here for ice cream. They serve Mexican ice cream and assorted frozen treats. Mexican ice cream is lighter and airier than American. No, it does not a lot of hot spices. The shop has a wide variety of flavors, including those that most would recognize. I do not remember what we had but it was delicious.
