    My niece has been trying to convince me to visit Bruster's since last summer, and I'm extremely sad I waited so long! The staff was super friendly, and I didn't have to wait longer than 5 minutes to place my order and walk out with the best ice cream I've ever had! The location itself, new to Irondequoit, is well kept and clean. The freshly made waffle cones made all the difference. This is definitely our new fav family spot for ice cream!

    Ice cream is delicious almost all the time, waffle cones are yum. Service is decently quick even though at night the line is long!

    Absolutely phenomenal. Rich, creamy ice cream. Detail-oriented service. Quaint and cozy ambiance. Ice cream with a small town feel...

Both flavors were incredible: super creamy and rich. My friend got chocolate almond fudge, and that was just as good. We also grabbed some baked treats to go (brownie, whoopie pie, and muffins), and everything tasted amazing. Other than sweet treats, they also have coffees and teas on their menu, and a bunch of different dairy products. It feels cozy, local, and authentic - like everything is fresh or straight from the farm. It's actually part of a long-standing local farm operation, which makes the experience feel even more genuine. I also loved that they support other local businesses and sell products from them, it adds to that community feel. Overall, this place is more than just an ice cream stop, it's a whole experience. Definitely coming back.

We ordered the chicken Thai…read morecurry puff appetizer, chuchee fried fish and tofu pad see eew mains, and Thai fried ice cream for dessert. I wasn't a huge fan of the curry puffs but that is personal preference; this appetizer, which was a valentines day specials, came with two heart shaped puff pastry filled with potatoes, veggies, and chicken. They tasted like they were primarily seasoned with curry powder. Both main dishes were exceptionally tasty. The chuchee fried fish (valentine's day special) was crispy, and the curry was rich in flavor with a nice kick to it. The pad see eew was a very large dish, after we'd eaten our fill it hardly looked like we'd touched the plate. It made a good lunch the next day. If you're a fan of spice, the chili oil it came with was great (flavorful and hot). The thai fried ice cream was perfect for two. Ordering more than one would have been too much (for me). Next time we visit I'd like to order the crispy pork belly, and the mango sticky rice.

We all decided on getting some apps and lunches. The portions were great and included a choice of a side; veggie choices - fried or fresh spring roll and Tom Yum soup. I thought the calamari was crispy and light. The Pad See Ew and Pad Kee Mao were good. I was very disappointed in the Pad Thai. My mom ate a couple of bites and disliked it. It was very heavily seasoned and left a paste that was reddish brown on the noodles. We didn't want to take the leftovers and the dish was comped. I like that the owner came over and asked about the dish so they can fix it going forward. The owner said her brother (main chef) was out and another chef was working. I wasn't blown away as I was expecting, however, I think they will do well. The owner was gracious and understanding and they offer larger portions than other places that I have been to.

    Ab Hurts are like Butthurts but worse, because having a sore arse is something we all get used to…read morefrom time to time (some more than others, like me when I dated this one ex boyfriend), whereas Ab Hurts are like... my f***ing tummy hurts so f***ing much I can't even f***ing eat. OK well I can eat but you know what I mean. Ow. Thankfully Ab Hurts are in no way associated with this, one of the best frozen custard places not just in Rochester, but in the whole world. What to get: Vanilla Frozen Custard What else: My mother's phone number' If they were a Beatles-themed store, they'd be Fab4bots. I came to this particular Abbott's just yesterday, and thought I'd branch out and order something different. I got the "Chocolate Almond Custard." Mistake! I forgot that I don't really like Almonds. It does add a nice "salted" taste to it though, but the texture was a little, well, nutty for me. It reminded me of Salted Caramel though, which was good. If they sold knives, they'd be Stabbotts. And the service was excellent! The one girl was in a bad mood (who took my money) because I was buying ice cream at 8.59pm when they close at 9pm (I didn't realize this!), and the lady behind me was making a food order. However the server girl was soooooooo nice and gave me a ridiculously enormous portion when I just asked for a baby size. Yay! If they manufactured electronic good-looking sports wives, they'd be Wagbots. This lobby, by the way, is not the nicest lobby to hang out in. A lot of the other Bill Grays and Abbott's have much nicer lobbies. But the vanilla custard is still the absolute bomb. If they sold blocks of concrete, they'd be Slabbotts. I'm going to borrow the rest of my jokes from the other Abbott's review, since I've now been to so many Abbott's that I'm running out of Abbott's jokes. There's something very special about Abbott's. I love frozen custard, but all custards are not created equal. I get so maniacally enthusiastic about this stuff that I usually end up in Police Custardy. If the people here were all overweight, it would be Flabbotts. And as I've said before, You'll find Abbott's inside Bill Gray's. It's a separate business that shares a space, much like Taco Bell/KFC do in many places. The employees inside work for both. If people were often abducted here, it'd be Nabbotts. It's one of my "best 5 custards I've ever had." I think I like custard more than ice cream, more than fro yo, less than real gelato, but that's beside the point. Focusing specifically on custard, which is sort of like soft-serve-but-creamier, the best in the country are Leon's in Milwaukee, followed by Nielsen's in Vienna, VA just outside DC, and then Abbott's in 3rd. After that, I think Cleveland has the next-best, and then there are a lot that are more or less tied. If Scientists worked here, it'd be Labbotts. There are many BG/Abbott's in Rochester, and a couple in Buffalo. In my experience they have all been fantastic. If it was full of Canadians and beer, it'd be Labbatts. I'm also glad to note that having visited Rochester and several new Abbott's, I do not like it any less than I did years ago. In fact I f***ing love it. If it were full of narks, snitches, rats and informants, it'd be Blabbotts. Anyway, it's still fantastic, creamy, sinfully delicious custard that is better than the next-best version (Don's) in the area. Come and give it a try and see for yourself what all the Rochesteritonianisticalishy fuss is Abbott. And if it kept changing its windows, it'd be ALT+TABbotts.

The Little House employees are punctual, friendly, and obviously love what they are doing! The latte went from inception to consumption in mere moments, and even with the hustle and bustle of the neighbors coming in and out, all needs were taken care of in a timely fashion. Side perk: the best parking situation of any coffee shop, ever! (No silly street parking a quarter mile away!) Don't miss: the baklatte.
