"Shave ice" is a bowl of ice cream topped with delectably shaven ice - not chunky like sno cones. The icey part is topped with your choice of flavor drizzled on it. A Snow Cap (condensed milk) is included as well. Most people have their Shave Ice with all of the above. It's a refreshing way to enjoy a lot of tasty ice cream with some very special extras. The owner has professional ice shaving machines used in Hawaii (we've been to Hawaii enough times to be hooked on the stuff ). If you're not interested in trying something new but you DO appreciate homemade ice cream, every ice cream at Oliwia's is homemade. It's only about 2 miles west of I-65 in downtown Hartselle. Use Yelp to find it!

It's super bright and clean with ample tables and a couple of bars with stools along the windows. It was fairly busy but the line moved quickly. We each got a medium Shave Ice with a scoop of ice cream (lots of flavors to choose from), shaved ice, flavored syrup (lots of flavors of this as well!), and the "snow cap" (coconut flavored condensed milk topping). It was a little messy but yummy! The medium size was almost more than we could eat! It was a fun experience and an affordable way to be treated to a more unique dessert experience. The next time we're heading home from Birmingham I'll be exiting off I65 for Oliwia's Shave Ice! We're so glad we took a chance!

I work in Decatur on a sort of seasonal basis and recently had my last visit out to the area for…read morewhat will likely be a while. I wanted to go out in style, so I decided to go to this little ice cream parlor for a treat to sort of say goodbye. The shop is small and shares some open space with a next door gift shop type space. It's cute and welcoming inside, with a lot of homages to dogs. I'm guessing Tess is the Frenchie, but regardless...the Frenchie stuff is extra cute. :) They have about 10-15 different ice cream flavors and some neat sounding soda mixers. So think of your favorite soda (Sprite, Dr. Pepper, Coke, etc.) and then add some flavors like raspberry, vanilla, pineapple, peach, etc. They have some existing winning combinations or you can create your own from a list of flavors! I got a single scoop of the "Better Brownie Batter" and also opted to try a lemonade with pineapple and peach flavors added in. I wasn't sure about those two flavors together (I love them both independently but wasn't sure they'd mix well) and the friendly employee very kindly offered to remake my drink for free if I wasn't satisfied with my creation. So nice! I don't remember the exact cost but I remember thinking it was reasonable. I took my treats outside and sat on one of the metal picnic tables to enjoy the blustery, sunshiney day. No need to remake my lemonade; the flavors definitely worked and I quite enjoyed them. You could taste both the pineapple and the peach! The lemonade is sparkling; I liked the fizz but just an FYI. The ice cream was delicious! I thought I saw it was Hershey's brand ice cream but I'm not sure. It really was better brownie batter. The body of the ice cream was super smooth and creamy, the brownie chunks were huge and tasted exactly like brownie batter, and the serving was super generous for just a single scoop! After looking around their social media, it looks like they often do fun offers like an ice cream advent calendar with all their flavors. How cute! My only regret is not stopping by earlier in the season so I could have multiple visits. Hope to see y'all again next time I'm in Decatur!

I stopped by for some froyo after work a couple of weeks ago. I used to work at a froyo shop in…read morehigh school. The trend died out a while ago but some shops still persist. I'll admit they make me nostalgic and I usually have fairly high expectations for them, since (though I'm biased) I feel like I worked at a pretty good one. The reviews for Zen Beri weren't that great but I honestly thought it was pretty good. This shop is located in a large, somewhat labyrinthine shopping center and the signage is nondescript, but there's plenty of parking and it's accessible. The inside is small but clean and cute. The staff member greeted me politely. I went to the back of the shop to check out the froyo flavors. They didn't have a super extensive selection (maybe about 10 flavors), but many sounded tasty. Eventually, the staff member offered me some sample cups, which were self serve. I'm clearly out of practice; two of my three samples came out great but one of them splattered all over my arm. It's veryyyy sticky lol. I tried the butter pecan, a coffee flavor, and one other that I don't recall the name of but remember liking...something vaguely nutty, but it's gone from my memory now lol. Anyway, the butter pecan was quite yummy; the coffee had a slightly odd taste that I didn't care for. 2/3 isn't bad. I have what I think is a pretty perfect froyo combo that typically tastes great and fulfills the build your own fantasy without overloading the toppings and making the flavor weird. I got some chocolate yogurt, paired it with a little of the butter pecan, and then topped it with crumbled Reese's and Oreos and a dusting of pecan pieces. Ideally, this creation is completed with a generous drizzle of hot fudge, but their hot fudge dispenser was either clogged or empty and my attempts were fruitless. Other than this mishap, the topping selection had lots of good choices kept clean and topped off nicely, though it wasn't a crazy extensive number of different options. I honestly find that preferable in terms of waste and decision making, but YMMV depending on what you like with your froyo. The price per ounce seemed reasonable and the employee remained friendly and pleasant through the checkout process. My creation tasted as I remembered (I've had better chocolate froyo but this one was good enough and the butter pecan was quite yummy) and I enjoyed it overall. This is a solid froyo shop and I'm glad to have stopped in. TL;DR: clean shop with polite employees; relatively small selection of flavors and toppings but what's available is fairly high quality and presented well. Worth a try!

I get it, fast food service industry sucks, customers can be awful, but seriously the interaction with the women who work here was above and beyond horrid. Great way to lose business. They clearly don't want to be there, don't want to work, and are not interested in fixing anything they messed up in the first place. And good god, don't ask for anything other than a normal drink. Heaven forbid you want a drink without ice. They'll ensure it's all ice with a splash of drink and then act like you asked them to go to war with Germany when you tell them you ordered no ice and could they please bring you what you ordered.

The French fries, chicken sandwich, chicken tenders, and fried cheese all tasted the same, almost like onion rings: greasy and lacking distinct flavor. The pepper jack sandwich looked thrown together, with both slices of cheese stacked on the same side. It seems like the food is all being cooked in the same fryer, causing everything to have the same taste. The milkshake was good, but the hot fudge sundae barely had any hot fudge -- just a small drizzle throughout the entire dessert. Also, be aware that there are extra charges added to many items, even for things like BBQ sauce. This was my first time ordering here, and unfortunately, I would not recommend it or return. Restaurant was clean and well lighted.
