This place is pretty gimmicky in my opinion. There is a monitor facing their window that shows people how they make their ice cream, which is what initially drew me in. I tried their thai ice tea flavored ice cream with assorted candy crammed into it, and was actually really excited to try it. The presentation was well done, but the ice cream was just blah. I'd rather eat store bought, as the ice cream had an odd chewy texture which I was just not a fan of. Some people might enjoy this, but me and my fiance seemed to be thrown off. If I lived in the area, I probably wouldn't go back. read more

Ermm...Although it wasn't horrible and the line wasn't that bad, it wasn't the best. I tried this place out because it was nearby and it got pretty decent ratings; however, it was just not good. It was really syrupy and unnatural tasting. We got the matcha one which was definitely something I loved at 10 Below but not here...and we made a fruity one with mango and lychee which was actually not bad, but still really sweet. Overall, only a 10 minute wait and not that expensive, but I've definitely tasted better. read more

It's easy for people to recognize the style of ice cream here. It's Thai style and you could compare it to that of 10 Below in Manhattan's Chinatown. I'll tell why it's a little better. For starters, the price is slightly lower. At 10 Below, it's a flat $7 for one size and toppings. Here at ICE NY, you have a regular or large size option for $5.51 or $6.43 respectively. With tax, it comes out rounded to $6. So that's already a better price. Also, the ice cream here is rolled with the toppings you choose beforehand, before the process starts. The chocolate chips are rolled into the ice cream rolls and it gives it better texture, making it easier to eat. The service is perfectly good and the seating area is kept very clean. Excellent! read more

Came here for dessert after having a big lunch! Got the taro ice cream with red bean, lychee boba, and a drizzle of condensed milk. It was DELICIOUS. Both my friends who were skeptic loved it! There's no photo because it was gone in a few minutes. Worth the trip out here from Queens. Be warned there's minimal seating! read more

Thai iced tea one was good with all the lychee mixed in. The matcha one with red bean and mochi was decent. The ice cream wasn't all that great, but I really enjoyed the toppings. read more

Visited this place all the way from Boston last month and I'm still having withdrawals. The mango sticky rice is my all time favorite out of the other rolled ice cream I have ever had! read more

This place is not bad but didn't find that the taste stood out from other ice cream joints. They deploy a very cool (pun kind of intended) process to make ice cream and might be worth checking out, but did not find that it rose above other types of ice cream or frozen yogurt. I had the vanilla with brownie mixer, marshmallow and whipped cream. Sounds awesome right? It was alright. Prices are reasonable and service is not bad considering there is quite a process to create your personalized ice cream. Perhaps this isn't my "cup of tea" or need to go back to try another flavor concoction. read more

This place is so fun. The novelty of Thai rolled ice cream does not wear off, and watching your dessert being made is absolutely mesmerizing. I had the green tea with mango mixed in, mochi topping, and condensed milk drizzle ($6). It was really yummy, and I liked that it had a strong matcha flavor and was not overly sweet. A good balance of everything. I highly recommend the green tea, though the other flavors looked awesome too (especially the Thai iced tea flavor...maybe next time!). Only taking a star off because the space is very small so it's not guaranteed you'll have seating - which isn't great in cold winter weather. In warmer temps this shouldn't be an issue as you can eat your icy treat outside. When there's a line of people, be ready to wait a while for your ice cream because it takes some time to make each cup - totally worth the wait though! read more

Very cool way to make ice cream, it's a show of its own. They have a lot of flavors to choose from but the ice cream was okay. Not extremely flavorful, don't get me wrong it is ice cream so it is good I have just had better. read more

It was okay. To be more exact i would have given it a 3.5. It was cool how the ice cream where made. This is 1 of 3 store of this type of thai rolling ice cream. This is the first place out of the three and would not come back here again. The ice cream were not that great. read more

This place is simply one of the best things that has happened to ice cream since sprinkles and chocolate! The reverse griddle based spread and shave into rolls technique makes the ice cream so much lighter yet fun to eat. I had the one with coconut milk as my base with kitkat filling, chocolate rolls on the side with malt dust topping. The word amazing does not do it justice. They have many more combinations that i look forward to trying out on my next visit there. The decor of the place is playful with extremely friendly staff who are always smiling. Love a good dessert place with lively folks who run it. read more

Long line, but worth it. Had to try the rolled ice-cream to see what the hype was about. It did not disappoint. loved watching how they prepared my rolled ice-cream. The taste was very good. Very creamy and delicious. I will be back!!! read more

My boyfriend and I had a really great experience at I CE NY. The space is quite clean and the staff are very friendly. There are a lot of pre-made options to chose from, but you can create your own flavor if you'd like. It's cool to watch your ice cream flavor come together as the ice cream rolls are made. We tried the Thai iced tea ice cream and it was super creamy and delicious - tasted just like thai ice tea. I'm excited to go back and try another flavor! read more

Mmmmmmm a big ol' cup of ice cream on a cold day? Yes please! Watching someone make the ice cream magically in front of you? Yes yes yes! I was really excited to try the Thai smashed ice cream since I've seen it in action online before and have a sweet tooth that's increasingly become less sweet. I got the matcha green tea ice cream mixed / smashed with mango which came out great. Topped with kochi and condensed milk (like any other true Asian dessert). I was expecting the texture to be much lighter like shaved ice but this this THICK and I love it that way. Highly recommend, would come here again. Yes. read more

Maybe it's because there was no line when I went so I didnt have time to wait and build up these big expectations, but i thought it was pretty good! I got the green tea combo, which is green tea ice cream with cornflakes mixed in, caramel, marshmallow and pocky. Given its price, size and sweetness, it was nice to split it with another person. I loved the crunch of cornflakes with the ice cream and I love marshmallows in general so I was happy. I think its a cool place to come back to if I'm not feelin regular ice cream and I want some ~pizazz~ with my dessert. read more

I went to I CE NY last weekend and there were a line forming up. At first, I didn't want to wait, but the line seems moving fast so I and my friend gave them a try and we weren't disappointed, (we ended up waiting 20-30 minutes, which was acceptable) There are 2 stations to make ice cream there, but only 1 station in the front, where customers can watch all process, the one in the back is like the additional machine to make the line move faster (it's too far so customers can't watch the process from the back machine) Our ice cream was made in the front station so we can watch our ice cream making process and it was so fascinating. I had green tea ice cream with oreo, red bean & mochi and my friend had thai iced tea with lychee. Both were good and met our expectation. Their green tea was strong and tastes like real matcha should be and their thai tea tastes exactly like Thai iced tea in Thai restaurant and Lychee in Thai iced tea made the taste outstanding. Overall, I and my friend will be back every time we are in NY. read more

Unlike the other places, they offer plenty of mix-ins and toppings. Their rolled ice cream was superb! It was so fresh, creamy and yummy. I had vanilla with mango. It's so fresh and it can refresh me during summer. They were quick and efficient in making an ice cream. I got my cup in just a couple mins and it was cool watching them make a magic. By the way, their staff were super helpful because they recommended me so many things! Definitely go back! read more

I had seen videos online of people waiting hours to get this stuff so I was hoping on a freezing February night the wait wouldn't be bad - and we lucked out. Only about a 10 minute wait. Strawberry cheesecake flavor was delicious. Has the consistency of butter. Sweet, creamy and delicious. I don't know that I'd ever wait over an hour for it but it's certainly worth trying! read more

The process is fun to watch, but this place isn't worth the noticeable hype. Flavors are meh. The quality and freshness of the toppings is a little upsetting. Stale marshmallows? Old pocky sticks? All for a whopping $8 a pop. I'll definitely pass on this one hit wonder... read more

Got a Thai ice cream flavor with lychee. Was pretty good. I noticed the ice cream rolls here are way thinner than the ones at 10below. Though I-CE NY has more variety. The store is small so I don't recommend going with huge groups unless you're planning to take over the whole place. Definitely good to try if you're in the area and if there is no wait. read more

This little place blew me away with their Thai-styled ice cream dessert. The texture of the rolled ice cream is heavenly and I was duly impressed. You have plenty of options for creating your own sweet creation. They have you choose a base ice cream then a mixer (mixed with the ice cream while they roll it). Then you can choose a sauce and toppings. The ordering process is pretty straightforward. If you're not sure of what you want you can go with one of their unique creations. We had the thai ice cream with mango mixer. The pairing was really nice and I'd select those two again. We topped it with mochi and condensed milk. It was excellent and the smallest size is large enough to be shared between two people. Note that this place is very small and seating is limited. When we went the line was out the door, but most people were taking it to go. If you haven't tried thai style rolled ice cream then get your butt to I CE NY! read more

My first time having rolled ice cream, and it was the best dessert experience of my life. High ratings are for the ice cream itself-- delicious matcha ice cream with mochi balls. The red bean wasn't too heavy or sweet either, and the condensed milk added a tangy addition to the creamy matcha ice cream. I also tried a bit of my friend's very berry rolled ice cream, which tasted like creamy, delectable berries--not really what I was craving at the moment, but she loved it. Only docking a star because there's barely any room in the shop, and making the ice cream does take a while--so come if you're in a leisurely mood to partake in some delicious heaven. read more

Hands down my favorite thai ice cream rolls in NYC. I've tried Juicy Spot, which I liked. My boyfriend tried 10 Below. We both agreed that I CE NY's ice cream rolls have a great consistency. The ice cream does not melt immediately. You can actually enjoy it instead of rushing to finish it so it doesn't become a puddle of cream. Although the shop may be small, there are a few tables and seats. They have a really large selection of flavors and toppings and also unique combinations for those who are indecisive. It's open till late on weekends, which is a plus and it's in a prime location! read more

If you have never had Thai ice cream, this is one of the two locations in NYC where you can get it. For now, at least. This location is different than 10Below Ice Cream because you can CUSTOMIZE your ice cream how ever you want it. First you choose the base (vanilla, chocolate, etc), then an ingredient that goes into the base and then toppings...so you have a lot of choices.. I am a huge fan of the ice cream. It does taste different than your regular ice cream, its thicker and has a different consistency than your traditional scoop. The only reason I gave this place 3 stars is: Small space, only about 3-4 pans in which they can make the ice cream. Each ice cream takes about 5 minutes to make...so if you have a line that is out the door, be ready to wait a good 25-30 mins. Because they are so constraint in the number of pans they have, they actually rush to make your order which does effect the consistency of the ice cream. The ice cream is suppose to freeze all the way through before it's rolled up and I've had them roll the ice cream before it was frozen. Not great business practices when you are charging 7 dollars for a regular. read more

For people visiting from arizona this was a bit of an adventure. Simple concept that takes the frozen stone a step further with nice presentation. Good portion, friendly service. Only gripe is that they accidentally gave our food to someone else. They should really confirm who gets what order. If that other patron took a bite I would have been pissed. read more

I've been antsing to try this place, and so glad I did yesterday. Surprisingly there was no line coming out the door and it was about 2pm on a Saturday - which also meant my indecisive self didn't have enough time to figure out what I wanted. The Chocorilla, Cookie Spree, or Matcha one? But instead of going with one of the featured items, I created my own: coconut milk, lychee, mochi toppings, and whipped cream - yes, simple, but so delicious! I loved the thick and creamy texture and noticed while walking through the sweltering, 80-something degree weather in the city this ice cream held its consistency and took forever to melt. read more

Venue - Cute small hole-in-the-wall with 2-3 little tables. Ice Cream - Compared to the other two thai ice cream shops in the city, this one is the best in terms of flavor. The Thai Iced Tea base was delicious and they have interesting toppings like rambutan (the fuzzy lychee-like fruit). Like the other thai ice cream shops, they make it in front of you with a liquid base and mix in the toppings Coldstone style. read more

I went there for their specialty Thai Style Rolled Icecream (following my friends map trails). There were so many selections of Rolled Icecreams, but I picked the Thai Tea Flavored because I couldn't find it anywhere else. Great Taste! Great Price!! Great Customer Service!!! Nice Clean & Cozy Spot!!!! No long lines!!!!! Better go now after you read this ~ read more

Giving it 3 stars for the experience. It was fun to pick your own toppings and flavors and watch them create you're vision. However,it was very difficult to eat and was missing the creaminess of real ice cream. One big positive was it was buy 1 get 1 half off the day we were there so that was enticing for a first timer. Advice: go across the street to insomnia cookies if you want a sweet treat! read more

I traveled quite far to find this place! I was so excited to try it! But man oh man that place is small. I felt like a sardine. I'm giving 3 stars because they had AC (and it was like 102 outside), ultimately the ice cream tasted good, and it's fun to watch. I was bummed to find out I couldn't get Nutella in the ice cream due to allergies, so I could only get the banana ice cream with cornflakes and Nutella on top. They were extremely skimpy on the "Nutella" and it was so watery and flavorless that I question if it was even Nutella. Next time, go for one of the signature flavor combos and I think it will taste better. read more

This is delicious, the ice cream is on point and fun. It's awesome picking your flavors and toppings and customizing your dessert. Just a little tip: The oreos mixed with anything are on point! Just be aware that it can be a bit of a wait since they make the ice cream to order, but spend the time by watching them make it! read more

I built my own thai ice cream rolls. My base was the thai ice cream with lychee infused into it, kitkat (they gave me one), and condensed milk as my drizzle. They also offer free whip cream. I enjoyed my ice cream rolls and tasted little chunks of lychee in my rolls, which were a nice touch. The rolls here are creamier than 10Below (their's is milky and melts right away) and Juicy Spot (their's is sweet and smooth with a natural taste). I CE NY has a natural taste to their rolls as well, which I appreciated and enjoyed. It's $6 a cup. The seating is small but adorable! read more

Not sure where the idea of rolling ice cream came from but simply watching them being made was enough fun for us. I like how we're able to customize the mix and the toppings. I was also pleasant surprised to find that the ice cream taste decent. So I guess it is possible to have both looks and the taste :) read more

If you ever asked the question, "what if ice cream was rolled?" then this place is for you. Unfortunately, having never asked that question, I don't think this place is for me. Overall, this was more gimmick than mainstay. I'd take take friends or family that were visiting the city here who wanted something "fun", but wouldn't take any NYC residents here for good ice cream. There's better ice cream elsewhere. And given the limited selection and questionable flavors (the cheesecake topping tasted strange) and long wait time, a trip isn't justified. read more

Surprisingly delicious! We ordered s'mores and Thai tea and it was so creamy and rich. Devoured everything.

I'm so in love with this place. I've tried the smash ice cream many places but no any were better than here. First of all, the flavor is unique and tasteful. I'm also ecstasy with the customize option. I recommend you to try TARO ice cream with mochi topping. Moreover, seeing the way they make ice cream is really exciting! They are indeed professional. Great job guys! read more
