    Mohammed what a great worker and funny guy.
    Brian M.

    Came in today and was served by the owner Francis. What was most impressive was that he came in to cover for most of the workers who were celebrating a Muslim holiday. His words were also inspiring when he told me he trains his workers to service customers and not just look to take their money. He is about customer service. Everyone that works in this Carvel are very nice and I would recommend you try them out.

    New dairy free orange tangerine flavor!

    Excellent service at this Carvel location! The servers are young but friendly and efficient, and the venue is relatively well kept. More so, this location always seems to be the most crowded of all those in Bay Ridge, which only supports my claim towards their excellent service! Their location offers a lot of different ice cream flavors, sherbets, and even a few unique dairy free flavors! Although I visited to purchase a vanilla soft serve with strawberries and pineapples, I ended up submitting myself to the temptation of a junior scoop of dairy free orange-tangerine ice cream upon recommendation by my server. I was amazed by the creaminess and excellent taste of the dairy free dessert! While it was a little overly sugary, it was a refreshing guilt free treat to end my night! In essence, this Carvel location offers efficient service, and an abundance of options to satisfy the sweet tooth of those of any diet. The servers are friendly and seem happy to make recommendations to help customers select the best ice cream flavors and combos. The only issue is that, because they are so popular, they sometimes run out of sealed take home ice-cream treats, certain toppings (like the pineapples for my vanilla ice cream), and preferred ice cream flavors. Thus, my best suggestion is to always have a second choice - just in case!

    First time ordering a birthday cake at carvel. Took a look at the website and was interested in the butterfly one. Went in to the store and the staff (didn't get his name, asian male) was very informative and was told I can customize the cake with different colors. I was thinking that's cool, I can choose different colors rather than the default one on the website. But when I picked up the cake, it was 10x better than the website. The staffs went above and beyond. I'm not sure who made the cake but if it was an employee than you deserve a raise and if it was the owner than you'll be getting my business again.

    Custom ice cream filling too!!

    So we went back few month later and ordered another one for my son and the flavor is peanut butter treasure and vanilla with chocolate crunch in the middle and Francis added some peanut better sauce and extra reeses butter cups. It was delicious!!!! I need to order this flavor again!!

    The best Carvel in Bay Ridge. They're fast. The ice-cream never taste freezer burned. You know they move a lot of it. The staff is very polite too.

    It was my first time in this location and the service were really nice and you don't expect that a lot from young people. It was already later but they were very profesional and helpful when I was trying to decide what to get. There is a lot of options and varieties of toppings. After we got our order we were lucky to find the bench outside free and enjoyed our ice cram, I didn't eat all but two days after still as good as the day we bought it.

    Our cones :)

    I ordered this cake for my daughter's 100-day celebration and honestly, it was a huge…read moredisappointment. The cake looked nice, but that's where it ended. There was absolutely no flavor--just tasted like straight butter and sugar. I know what pandan taste like and it wasn't it. I paid extra for pandan flavor, and honestly there was zero trace of it. I could tell she used green dye, It literally tasted like a bland, buttery sugar cookie cake. Texture-wise, it was just as bad. It wasn't moist at all and didn't even hold up properly even before cutting--it just fell apart. It looks like crumbled rocks. The cake was so dry! For the price, I expected much better quality. Communication was another major issue. There's no phone number, only email, which already felt off. Responses were slow and unhelpful, making the whole process feel unprofessional and honestly a bit sketchy. What kind of business only communicates through email? Overall, I'm highly disappointed. Definitely not worth the money. Save yourself the frustration and look elsewhere--this is a perfect example of why you shouldn't judge a book by its cover. I truly wanted to support her small business but it didn't turn out the way I expected. This business overpromise and under deliver. Don't say you can make a pandan cake when you clearly don't have the proper ingredients. Could been honest to begin with but instead you dug a hole and lied by using green dye. Never again am I supporting this small home business I rather go to an actual LLC.

    Big Cake Mom is AMAZING! Lisa is truly a talented baker! She's been my go-to baker whenever I…read moreneeded a delicious and exceptional cake for special occasions! Lisa has baked for both of my children's first birthday parties and other bdays for years! Lisa nails the design EVERY TIME! She always listens to what I want and delivers each and every time. Her designs are very classy and current and simply beautiful. She's made customizing cakes so easy and stress-free for me over the years. Our guests were always so impressed by her cake designs and complimented how unique and yummy the cakes we got. Separately, I very much appreciate the unique flavors (green tea, ube, to name a few) that Lisa offers! Every time I try something new, it immediately becomes my new favorite. Her cakes are always super moist and delicious. I would strongly recommend Big Cake Mom to anyone who wants a beautiful and delicious custom-made cake.
