I also appreciate the risks they take with new flavors. There are vegan and dairy free options as well as cakes and pints to go. Love this place. The kids at the service counter are sweet.

I am a long-time Rancatores fan, which makes it all the more painful to write this disappointed but…read morehonest review. Rancatores prices have notably increased over the last few years (up to $7.50 for a small!), but I have remained a loyal customer due to the ice cream's superior quality. However, as serving sizes have become less generous alongside rising prices, it is becoming increasingly difficult to justify my patronage. Last Sunday, I went to the Rancatores Belmont location and received the following serving for a small. I included the (normal-sized) plastic spoon for scale to demonstrate the minuscule size of the scoops. It's one thing to say that a small is two scoops (though it is not described as such), but even if you believe that, two half-sized scoops does not cut it! I love Rancatores, but I was left feeling upset and robbed after my last visit. I want this local business to succeed, but I hope they can better control the quantity and quality of their product. Until then, I fear I will be staying away from Rancatores.

I scream! You scream! We all scream for ice cream!…read more It is always a treat to stop by Moozys for some delicious ice cream! They have a huge variety of specialty flavors and also some seasonal creations! I always like to get a yummy waffle cone with my ice cream because it's a nice and big and can hold my scoops of ice cream. I have tried many of their flavors and all have been very good. I really enjoy their butter pecan and pistachio ice cream. They also have self service frozen yogurt with a few flavors but I never really see anyone getting frozen yogurt at least the times I have been there. We have also tried their food menu and have ordered their burgers which were tasty. We enjoy going late at night and on hot summer nights!

I'm sorry for what happened here, no one deserves to lose their business in a fire. This place…read morestill does not deserve 5 stars though, sorry. Honestly wish they would stay closed or a diff business open there once rebuilt. Racism is so obvious here but the town seems to revel in that and support it in their local businesses. You have to get soft serve yourself which will melt into soup by the time you get to pay for it.. We went once and were treated poorly and had soup cream.. not ice cream. They needed an AC here. Everything is so subpar so I just don't get why it is a town staple with less than stellar food and ice cream.

Happily, not hyper-sweet like JP Licks! Tuesday evening around 7pm the small parking lot filled up pretty fast and the line inside was about 10 deep because there were only two people working the counter, both cashiering and serving, so don't expect to be in and out of there. But they were nice friendly high school age kids, and fairly efficient once it's your turn. Outdoor seating area had a similarly chill, pleasant community vibe. Worth coming back for, I think.

Nice ice cream shop with big portions. I've had their demogorgon, Vader, blueb and cannolis and…read morecream sundaes. I've also made a customized version of the demogorgon to add caramel core and fudge sauce. You mostly taste the toppings more than the actual ice cream. The demogorgon is great for the chocolate on chocolate craving. I didn't like the Vader as much because the frosting on top is too sweet. Cannolis and cream I subbed the Oreo frosting with their homemade whip. Their whip doesn't taste like anything sadly and their frosting is overpowering. I probably wouldn't get this again since all you taste is the chocolate chips and a hint of Oreo. The yogurt itself was bland. For the blueb sundae I love the fresh blueberries, pudding and crumb topping. It's very nice for a fruit ice cream just wish the ice cream was more flavorful. Order online for easier pickup as there is only 1 screen to take orders at and no seating inside. Quick service. Has picnic tables outside to sit and not too bad to find parking on the street. Has some little tables but limited and twinkly lights at night. Staff seemed very stressed when people crowd around and needs better organization of the pickup area vs ordering vs waiting to avoid this frustration/rudeness from the staff.

Ever since the Tall Man and I stumbled across it back in 2019, only a couple months after they opened, we've made it our go-to local boba shop. I like my boba drinks quite simple, and being dairy free also limits my options. I nearly always get the classic black or green bubble tea sweetened with honey, with less ice and 30-50% sugar. The bubbles are a good chewy texture, never over cooked, and slightly but not overly sweet like Kung Fu Tea's. Without fail, the Tall Man gets a taro milk tea or smoothie ("tea" isn't quite the right term, since there's zero tea thus zero caffeine) with mango popping boba. A creamy winner that's less sweet than competitors'. They also sell ice cream (typical flavors, although I wish they would offer Chinese/Taiwanese ones like taro and matcha) and used to have cake, but I haven't seen the pastries lately. A couple things to note: - The owner is very kind and runs the place with her family. At times she's the only one there, though. If there's a wait (mostly gaggles of high school students), be patient, and she'll get your order right. - Over the years, I've learned not to show up in the first 30 minutes after opening, to ensure that the boba is ready (the tapioca balls need to be cooked, then sweetened and preferably cooled down). It's possible the owner has changed her preparations since the early years, but this is now an engrained habit of mine so I haven't been there early enough to verify. - Not open on Mondays, including holidays that happen to be Mondays (like this year's July 4th).

The Pla Pad Kun Chai which is a fried cod fillet, with a mix of root spices and Chinese celery, had some complex flavors that didn't pan out - the fish itself was breaded in a batter that was perhaps a bit too MSG-laden, and not enough distinctive a flavor to justify its saltiness; and the Chinese celery was really tough, which didn't make for a good bite of texture. The green onions were too crispy relative to the other alliums. The Kao Soi Brisket had some decent beef pieces, but then some of the other pieces were way tough. The soup (or is it a sauce?) was way thick, and overall the dish was overly salted. There also needs to be more noodle, and more mustard green overall. The curry puff was a good idea, but the puff itself was rather dry, and not particularly well integrated with the chicken, potatoes, and alliums. The stuffing might also have been underseasoned. In general the dishes demonstrate expert preparation, but the concepts need reworking. The new environment (across the street from the former location) is a tad loud when populated with many diners, though visually it's a pleasant place to dine. The servers were attentive and respectful.
