    Went on a Friday night and this place was packed! There was barely any seating inside nor outside. The staff was rushing us due to the amount of customers. Carvel is one of my favorite ice cream shops. I always get the soft serve with chocolate chips topping. Simple but so good!

    So grateful that I don't have a single bad thing to say about this place. Upon walking in the worker walked from the back and greeted me very friendly and told me about a couple of the limited time flavors they had. I got to have a sample of the Biscoff ice cream and let me say it was heavenly with the perfect amount of flavoring in it. I decided that I wanted to do something original so I got a vanilla soft serve in a small size with some rainbow sprinkles. The sprinkles were 99 Cents extra but honestly justifiable because there was an insane amount of them on my ice cream for the toppings. The flavor of the ice cream was Heavenly and it was ridiculously creamy. There was a nice amount of sweetness and it didn't melt fast, even when I was sitting outside to enjoy it because there's no seats inside this place. The small ice cream is more than enough and at $5 it is very justifiable especially in this ridiculous Florida heat we have right now. They have multiple sizes that range from a kid's cup to a large and only about a dollar or so in difference for the sizes. For me the small was more than enough and it actually made me full! This location also has many items that you can grab and Go from Frozen booths. They have some really cute pre-made cakes that are ice cream! I didn't get to see how much they were but I can definitely believe they are worth the price! They also have a ridiculous amount of toppings and next time I come back I will definitely try the cookie crunch topping they had to offer! Very clean place with very friendly staff!

    www.youtube.com/@TheRagingFork Always goto this location after dinner in the plaza. Easy in and out from STRD84. During after dinner time the line is long but goes quick. The ice cream servers are friendly but usually dont have time to chat since busy...People usually hang out in front while their ice cream cones melt - i suggest an ice cream bowl or edible or non-edible circular cone wraps that catch the dripping ice cream. Would recommend this location...

    Cakes are always so fresh and delicious way better option than going to the grocery store & getting an ice cream cake. Service is always with a smile and store is classic ice cream shop set up! Never a problem when I go this carvel, ambiance is great!

    Stopped in for a couple of soft serve cones. They run lots of specials so check their website for the latest 2 for 1 offers. Even the small cone was huge. The service was fast and friendly. A few tables and chairs are outside for you convenience. Grab plenty of napkins because soft serve ice cream melts fast. I like that they have a special cone cover to catch the drips.

    This Carvel was like a blast from the past! We had a neighborhood Carvel growing up and I used to go there often for frozen treats with my family. I remember the nonstop commercials during the 70s and 80s. My husband recently saw a few of the commercials for the Fudgie the Whale cake and he kept telling me how he wanted one, so I when I received some Carvel coupons in the mail I decided to order one for Father's Day. When I arrived at the store on Sunday afternoon I had a few minutes to look around. I was happy to see that they had at least 20 flavors of hard ice cream, plus soft ice cream and lots and lots of toppings. They also had several freezer cases full of frozen ice cream cakes, single serve frozen treats, plus a whole case of Flying Saucers. (These are like traditional ice cream sandwiches made in a circle. In addition to the chocolate and vanilla ones they had many other flavors like Oreo, coffee, and mint chip.). My cake was ready as promised. The only problem was that the box did not fit in my freezer, so when I stored it vertically the writing got a little messed up.The taste was still fabulous, just as everyone remembered. There was a layer of vanilla ice cream and a layer of chocolate ice cream and there was a chocolate crunchy topping in the center. (They sent me home with an entire container of additional chocolate crunchy topping.). The cake also had a thick layer of chocolate fudge on top. It was definitely the best part of our Father's Day meal. Now that I know we have a Carvel so close by I will have to stop by again and pick up some of those Flying Saucers! They also had another great promotion that I remembered from my college days....."Wednesday is Sundae at Carvel". This a BOGO ice cream sundae event every Wednesday that is awesome!

    2-23-22 12:30pm In the mood for great ice cream so I sought out the closest Carvel. Very happy as well as surprised that 45+ years later they still have two for one sundaes on Wednesday's. I loved it as a kid and loving it more now. So I head on over to this shopping center not one I ever went to in the past. It is one exit from where I work off of 595. Upon entering the store it is immaculate and new a first for me. To say it was so clean you could eat off the floors is an understatement. I had the medium sized soft chocolate ice cream with strawberry topping for my sundae this included whipped cream and a cherry on top. The associate put in a bigger cup to accommodate the strawberry sauce. I never enjoyed it as much. I sat outside in the table and chairs provided. It was just a slice of heaven. Definitely will be back again really soon.

I loved the lanterns and the cherry blossom decorations they had. We chose a strawberry cream cheese bun, an egg drop sandwich and a hot Cheetos corn dog that was 50/50 cheese and meat. The staff was sweet and let us know our food would be ready in 15 minutes. The strawberry cream cheese bun was so good, perfect amount of sweetness not over powering at all. My son loved the hot Cheetos corn dog. The cheese pull was CRAZY GOOD. As for the egg drop sandwich we loved it, surprisingly it had a hint of sweetness which was very nice. Definitely a spot to visit again... might grab a mochi donut next time.

It was different good. I didn't get the corn dog becausei didn'thave room but Iwished I did. It was picked the inside. You had choices of cheese, hot dog, or a combination and then see what you like for the outside and how spicy you like it. The shop was cute. It has an outdoor sitting spot. The person on the counter was helpful and knowledgeable. She had good customer service. She was great in giving me choices. She had a great personality. I was asking a lot of questions and she was answering them good.

    Updating my review because this is not D for Dessert!…read more Still a great shaved ice spot for desserts and more in Hollywood. I came here after a beach day with my family as we were craving something sweet and refreshing. Since it was on the way home, it was an easy decision to stop by here. Parking is super easy as this is located in a parking lot with plenty of spaces. We got two of the bingsus-- strawberry mango and the earl grey boba tea snow. Both were so good and catered to different palates. I really loved the earl grey one because it came with lychee jelly which was an expected but pleasant surprise. The mango strawberry is a classic and it did not disappoint. The inside was clean and the staff was super nice. They also had cakes here and some specialty Asian desserts. A great spot for dessert in Hollywood!

I'm not really a fan of matcha but they were super helpful in discussing flavors and their more popular drinks. We ended up ordering the brûlée matcha and strawberry matcha. The birthday cake was presented beautifully and they even included a birthday crown, birthday candle and a happy birthday sign. From this point forward, all my birthday cakes will be from D for Dessert!

The strip looked sort of familiar and when we left, we realized we'd been to the Pho restaurant at the other end. There used to be a Piu Bello in isla Verde/San Juan that we frequented on biz trips there. Turns out this place is not related. It's an independent that has been in this location about a year. But I was curious about the name. I looked it up and Piu means in Italian more or extra. That's a fitting description of the gelato here -- which is beyond all expectations and absolutely delicious. I've always known that there is less fat and calories in gelato than in ice cream. But even if that were not true, I wouldn't care. This gelato is so creamy and rich; it's the definition of sinful. And more than worth every damn calorie! Before deciding what to get, I tried their coffee gelato (very good) and one other. I chose to get a small cup with coconut and chocolate sorbet. I loved them both. The chocolate was like eating dark chocolate ganache. And it went well with the coconut -- which had small bits of actual coconut in it. My husband got their passion fruit gelato -- a medium cup sized portion. And our friends shared the dulce de leche with extra caramel in it. This really was some of the best gelato I've eaten in a very, very long time (and I'm old!). Do I wish I lived closer? Yes. Am I sort of glad I don't? Yes. Cause I'd be here every day....trying all their flavors.
