    Strawberry/pistachio
    Mor S.

    Great place for ice cream strawberry and pistachio. Quick service and friendly staff. Has a cozy feel especially at night. And they have parking too.

    Is it ever a trip up north unless you visit a good old fashioned Carvel ice cream store? When I recently visited last month even though the temperature was a nice cool 32 degrees I still had to make sure to stop by a Carvel so I can say I've been to one up north. The location is very easy to find from the street because it is lit up nice and bright however there is virtually no parking and if you go at night good luck seeing parking because the parking lot is basically pitch black. It only consists of about three or four spots but even then it was difficult to make sure I was parking in the lines... Which I don't think I did anyways cuz it was so dark LOL. The interior was insanely to clean and it is a rather small Carvel but that doesn't stop it from having huge flavor! The two people behind the counter were very friendly and talked us through the pricing and sizes of the ice cream cones. In the end I decided to get a small vanilla ice cream cone with rainbow sprinkles and let me say, for a small it was massive! And there was a very nice dose of sprinkles. So many that you could barely see the ice cream cone! While I loved it I could see where they could maybe use a little bit less in case you're not a huge fan of rainbow sprinkles. Prices are good and the ice cream was delicious and rich and I am going to be craving it every single time I think about New York and ice cream in general. Friendly staff also made this a very welcoming Carvel to stop by! I don't understand all the negative reviews.

    Auburndale isn't known for ice cream, but I'm glad we at least have a Carvel! It's clean, the staff is nice, and it hits the spot when you need it. Parking is a huge help as well. Maybe it's because of the location, but this Carvel is on the pricier side and they charge extra if you want a classic, thick milkshake (made with hard ice cream instead of soft serve). They do have deals occasionally and B1G1 Wednesday sundaes are always solid. If they could consistently make thicker shakes and do it right each time, this ice cream shop would be perfect in my book.

    Typical Carvel spot. Been coming here for around 20 years. Love their smiley face ice cream cups. The workers are nice. They have interesting soft serve flavors such as pistachio. Service was fast. There are social distancing markers on the ground right now. Dairy-free options are available! There's some parking right outside.

    Love the pistachio soft serve!! :D

    My go-to ice cream spot! Of all the bougie ice cream shops popping up all over NYC like Soft Swerve, Taiyaki and Big Gay, I'll take a simple soft serve cone from Carvel any day! My favorite by far is the pistachio! So smooth and refreshing! This location on Northern has very limited parking, and a few seats inside. But most people just come in for a quickie and then bounce. They have a nice selection of ice cream cakes too. Wednesday's are Buy 1, Get 1 Free sundaes! For those of you who play, there's a Pokemon Gym next door at the church. :D

    Carvel is good shop for cheap ice cream and ice cream cake.. I have been here couple of times when we have party for the kids. The menu selection are huge for ice cream and ice cream cake also. And the prices are definitely reasonable. Is it better than dunkin donut yes it's much better than dunkin but. Still not that good if you compare to local ice cream store like pesso's. I will gladly get here and get some ice cream for party because reasonable price and also it does taste good. The customer service is fast and good. They do the job on time and make sure all customers are taking care off. If you want to save a bit more that do have buy 1 get 1 special on some days. Just look for the posters on the windows which they change every week It's in a little shopping center so there is a parking available, first come first serve. No valet parking. Right of off Northen boulevard in flushing

    New flavor!

    Great location and ample parking! Staff is nice. No complaints and ice cream is great at all Carvels I've been to!

    The Korean lady here is so stingy on the soft serve. We got a small cup and the swirl didn't even reach the top of the cup.

We almost gave us and thought they were no longer around, but alas, the Husband found it! What a relief! They are located in the Queen Crossing food court, so there are a bunch of other eateries around them. They have some pretty unique Asian inspired flavors, which was the reason I chose to visit them. On the day we visited, they had Injeolmi Mochi, Misugaru, Nurungji with Puffed Rice, Brown Sugar Milk Tea, Dalgona Coffee, Homerun Milk & Cookies, Red Bean with Strawberry Confit, Kalamansi, Miso Caramel Cone & Walnuts, Passion Fruit, Ube, Peach Calpis, Hojicha Biscoff, White Peach, Thai Iced Tea, and Guava. I was particularly interested in the Nurungi with Puffed Rice as others had raved about it. I sampled it and it didn't taste like the toasted rice at the bottom of a rice pot as someone had described. We ended up getting a large cup $8.95 with Hojicha Biscoff, Guava, and Peach Calpis. It was a decent amount and we were pleased. It was our last night in New York, otherwise I would have returned to sample some of the other flavors. They also rotate their flavors, so it's worth checking out.

I found the space bright, clean, and comfortable, with a cozy café layout that is more polished than a traditional dessert shop. Seating is arranged for small groups and casual hangouts, and the overall setup feels designed for people staying awhile over desserts rather than grabbing something quickly and leaving. Even though the menu is large, the entire identity of the place revolves around fruit forward desserts, especially mango, with a mix of sago bowls, pancakes, crepe cakes, shaved ice, drinks, and sticky rice desserts. The mango desserts were easily the biggest highlight for me. I tried the mango sago pomelo bowl and the mango pancakes. The mango sago pomelo bowl leaned heavily into fresh fruit and creamy textures with a lighter refreshing flavor. The mango pancakes stood out for their soft crepe exterior and cream filling. I also sampled the mango sticky rice and a slice of mango mille crepe cake. The crepe cake added a richer dessert option alongside the colder fruit based items. The menu also includes durian desserts, coconut based sweets, black rice desserts, jellies, and specialty drinks, giving the café a wide range of textures and flavors without moving too far away from its fruit dessert focus. I noticed that a lot of the desserts feel visually layered and oversized, especially the combination bowls filled with fruit, sago, pomelo, jelly, and ice cream. Service felt casual and fairly efficient, even as the café got busy. My desserts arrived quickly, especially the cold dishes and drinks, and the staff kept the flow moving smoothly even when groups around me were ordering multiple items to share. The experience felt straightforward and relaxed rather than overly formal, which fit the café style setup well.

The mille crepe cake wasn't a favorite; the creme brulee really didn't taste like what I'm used to having. Overall, this is a great place to order from, no matter what the weather is. We've been going here and ordering for awhile now and the service and items have been consistent.
