    $15 minimum for card?! That's absurd... -_-
    Yu Z.

    I came here the other day cuz I was craving Carvel's classic pistachio soft serve ice cream. However, they only had gingerbread, which is available for a "limited time." I tried a sample and it tasted kinda weird, so instead, I opted for the chocolate and vanilla swirl on a cone, which goes for about $5 and change. I didn't have cash on me, and apparently their minimum for card is $15...which I thought was a little absurd, but whatever. Luckily, the older gentleman behind the counter let me use my card anyway, when he saw I had no cash. The ice cream itself was okay in flavor, but it was melting very quickly. I had to inhale that cone very quickly in under 3 minutes...LOL

    It's not much different from your standard Carvel but the elderly Asian couple that owns it are very sweet people.

    My hubby had found this little gem last year and we decided to take a little trip this past…read moreweekend. Not a bad drive from mid-Queens, it was about 20-30 minutes out of our way. While on a corner on a pretty busy street, the location seemed slightly obscure. No parking - just 2 or 3 spots in front of the establishment. We came mid-day on a gloomy Sunday in February...so we didn't have an issue parking right in the front. We were greeted by the friendly associate. There were lots of great-looking gelato flavors which the associate also allowed us to sample first (very kind). She was very patient with us and really seemed to enjoy working there. We're BIG hazelnut enthusiasts, so we each had one scoop of hazelnut flavor and one of the Rocher (hazelnut) flavor. They also had an amazing fig and honey gelato flavors which was absolutely delicious. They offer 4 sizes - kids' size, and then the usual - small, medium and large. The small is 2 generous scoops - and that's what we went with. The overall experience didn't disappoint at all; we thoroughly enjoyed the treat, my hubby had an espresso coffee as well (very good) and we got a kids cup of vanilla for our pup. The prices were also decent and for this type of experience, I will gladly support a small business. I definitely recommend checking out this little gem. Will return once the weather get warmer!

    They have indoor and outdoor seating. I walked in and was instantly greeted. Their sizes depend on…read morehow many flavors you can get in that cup. I went with a large 3 flavor cup and chose rainbow cookie, cannoli and s'mores. The rainbow cookie was my favorite of the three. And they put a little tiny cone on top which was cute.
