    Buttercrisp Waffle Cones

    Icecream cones and you can try as many flavors as you'd like. Line is long but moves very fast. A lot of people inside so it's better to walk down the street (Domain is very walkable)

    Let me first say that ice cream is my favorite thing. I'm a self proclaimed ice cream enthusiast. I know my frozen desserts VERY well so here are my #worthynotes : I LOVE JENI'S ICE CREAM. I'm obsessed. Unfortunately there isn't one in the city that I live in so whenever I am traveling and see one, I have to stop. This was my first time at this location and of course the ice cream did not disappoint. Smooth, delicious, and flavorful. Each bite had me on cloud 9. As for the establishment, very clean and cozy. There are a few places to sit. The staff were friendly and professional and quick! I would highly recommend stopping by to satisfy your sweet tooth!

    Milkiest Chocolate Ice Cream

    Jeni's is a fantastic ice cream shop in The Domain serving up interesting flavored scoops of ice cream in a cute little shop. We went in the afternoon on a Sunday and it was pretty busy. As a heads up, the nearest parking garage is the red garage. The shop is a bit small considering how many people frequent it so you may need to wait a bit to order or grab a seat. Ordering took quite a bit of time, 20 minutes or so, but that's because people like to sample their flavors plus there were a lot of kids which tend to slow things down. The line began outside which was inconvenient as we had to stand there with the door propped open. We eventually got to order and got a standard, or 2 half-scoops, of their milkiest chocolate. They also have pints of their ice cream available for sale so if you want a bit more than a few scoops then you're in luck. We were fortunate enough to find seating as people had just left so we sat down and dug into our waffle bowl of ice cream. Oh man, it was good! The milkiest chocolate is just so rich and sweet and the flavor is so balanced, one of our favorite chocolate ice creams ever (and we love chocolate ice cream). By the time we got up we were mad we hadn't ordered another scoop, but that's life. We would definitely recommend this place to cure your sweet tooth on a hot day but be wary of when you go because the wait can be a bit off-putting, unless you don't mind great ice cream as a reward for patience.

    I love how Jeni's never misses...no matter the state, no matter the city. The flavors travel perfectly; nothing ever gets lost in translation. That kind of consistency isn't luck. It's craft, discipline, and pure devotion to making ice cream with purpose. Making ice cream the right way. And the team here in Austin is just as kind and welcoming as every other Jeni's I've visited. Thanks for keeping the magic consistent, Jeni's Austin.

    5/5 for flavor. Honestly Jeni's is some of the best ice cream I've ever had. The flavors are rich and creamy with unique combinations. The dairy free Texas sheet cake was so creamy you wouldn't know it was dairy free. I also appreciate how many flavors are gluten free and that all the allergens are labeled. You're able to sample as many flavors as you want. ice cream is my absolute favorite dessert and I've tried my fair share of boutique ice cream shops. A small was close to $8 and while it was nice to be able to get 2 different flavors, the amount of ice cream was not sufficient for the hefty price tag.

    It's good! A great treat after hanging around the Domain. Got the study (4 scoops) of brambleberry crisp, milkiest chocolate, cameral apple crisp (new flavor), and almond brittle. Comes with three waffle chips (four would be better!) It was $10. Almond was my favorite! Very fragrant. They let you sample flavors so take your time choosing your favorites :) You can get water cups. They sell buckets of ice cream to take home too.

    Solid 5 stars icecream!!!! I have only ever had Jeni's from the grocery store and there are limited flavors. The storefront is very inviting, the waffles smell so good that you cannot walk by without peeking in. Once you glance over, it's game over. Great dejection of flavors and some really different ones. The staff is great at letting you taste flavors to help you decide. I got the Miso Butterscotch Brownie and Salted Peanut Butter with chocolate flecks. Fell in love with the Miso Butterscotch Brownie, just a teeny hint of savory brings out the chocolate and butterscotch flavors. Besides the flavor, the texture is great too- very creamy. I am going to be making a beeline to Jeni's anytime I am in Austin next. Highly recommended.

    This was my first experience with Jeni's ice cream located in the Domain. A+ Absolutely Fabulous flavors. Very Pricey, bring your $$$. The Staff were friendly. The ice cream was so delicious! I recommend that you visit here!

    Oh wow! This is a popular place in The Domain. I've known of Jeni's ice cream. Never been. I can understanding why there is a following of Jeni's. The ice cream is really high quality it's rich, it's thick, it's dense. And the flavor, is incredible. The ice cream comes with 2 small scoops. About the size of a golf ball. You can get 2 flavors or the same flavor. I did get a blueberry lavender, which will be my go to for sure. And the other scoop I got was the salted caramel. Both amazing. I would love to go back and try all their flavors. They do have a large variety. It was pretty loud inside, I wasn't able to hear the lady when she asked what I wanted. But like I said. It was busy, and the line was out the door. I did use the rest room and it was clean inside. It's just 1 bathroom for both female and male. There is a code on the door. But I guess they don't use it. Because I was able to go in without the code. They do have a rewards app where you can earn points for free ice cream. Thinking I might get that app and start my points.

    If you're an ice cream lover, Jeni's is a must try. You can taste the richness and creaminess in every taste of their ice cream. The Jenny's in the Domain on Rock Rose is a great location. There's a bench outside if you want to sit out and some seats inside as well. The menu can be a little confusing if you're not a regular but they will explain it and do samples. I went in for my FREE birthday treat! I was pleasantly surprised to get a waffle bowl and 3 scoops! They make their cones and waffles by the way and they are delicious! There's a flavor for everyone. All time favorite is the gooey butter cake ice cream! Highly recommend!

    This place makes delicious (so CHUNKY MMMMMM) and creative ice cream. They make fresh waffle cones too! The staff are friendly, enthusiastic, and patient (don't ask me how many samples we had and how long it took us to choose and were still met with a smile). The double dough ice cream was insanely creamy and I love the complexity of the flavors (it has salty and tart components as well). And don't sleep on the cherry goat cheese!

    Jeni's ice cream is splendid! I've only had Jen's Splendid Ice Creams once prior to today and I remember it being such a fabulous experience. The ice cream is fresh, fragrant and flavorful. There is nothing like Jeni's ice creams. The server allowed us to have a few samples of the ice creams. According to her Gooey Butter Cake, Salty Caramel and Brambleberry Crisp were the three most popular ice creams. I had the Gooey Butte Cake and Brambleberry Crisp. My friend had the Salty Caramel and Wildberry Lavender. All were so mouth watering good...so smooth and soothing to eat. Jeni's is small and many times during the day on the weekends lines wrap around the building. Run don't walk to Jeni's Spendid Ice Creams!!!

    Super cute spot for a daytime treat or the last stop on a date night! I recently stopped in and the staff is an always super patient with samples and very friendly. I love Jenni's creative take on ice cream flavors but I wish the has some of their classic flavors available year round. I'm a coffee lover and they only had it available in pints. However, this is still a great shop with beautiful interior and unique flavors. I'll never say "no" to a stop at Jeni's!

    Do they use cane sugar? I would like to take my sister, but she's allergic to unprocessed cane sugar.

    They list the ingredients on their website and the few that I looked at listed "Cane Sugar" or "Organic Cane Sugar".

    Can you buy Gift Cards at the Rock Rose Location?

    Do they sell Gift Cards? and if so are they running any Gift Card Promos? i.e. buy 25.00 Gift Card get 5.00 free

Between the three of us, there was a little bit of everything--from classic comfort flavors to things I never thought would work in ice cream but somehow absolutely did. (Please ignore the F, E, D--this was how I kept track of who ordered what). Roasted Beets & Fresh Mint (F, E) - the absolute winner of the night and my #1 flavor. I never thought I'd describe an ice cream as refreshing in the way a sorbet is, but somehow this pulled it off while staying rich and creamy. Delicious, subtly minty, unbelievably smooth, and surprisingly refreshing. The beet flavor was mild enough that it didn't taste earthy or overpowering--just mellow and creamy, while the mint made all the difference in brightening everything up. I genuinely never had such a refreshing ice cream that wasn't sorbet. Such a unique flavor that somehow works perfectly, and absolutely something I'd get again. GOAT Cheese, Thyme, and Honey (E, D) - my #2 and a complete 100% hit. Tangy, creamy, slightly savory, sweet, and incredibly unique while still tasting approachable. It somehow tastes exactly like the name promises without feeling too "out there." If you're nervous about goat cheese, trust me and try it. Easily an instant reorder. Dark Chocolate, Olive Oil & Sea Salt (E, D) - rounding out my top three. Such a good balance against the sweetness of the rest of the ice cream options. Rich, deep chocolate flavor without becoming overwhelming, while the olive oil and sea salt round everything out and keep it from tasting too sugary. A flavor I appreciated more and more between bites of sweeter scoops. Hill Country Honey & Vanilla Bean (E) - one of the smoothest vanilla bean ice creams I've had. It reminded me of a traditional ice milk soft serve in the best way possible: creamy, nostalgic, and incredibly easy to eat. A deceptively simple flavor done really well. Very Strawberry (F) - a clean strawberry flavor that leaned a little artificial, but honestly? Still really good. Bright, fruity, and easy to enjoy. Cookies & Cream (F) - this one hit HARD when you got a full spoonful. I never liked cookies & cream before this, but this one genuinely changed my mind. Probably the only cookies & cream I would willingly eat. Chocolate Chocolate (F) - love chocolate? Get this. That's all you need to know. Coffee & Cream (D) - oooh. This immediately reminded me of a keto coffee ice cream I had once and really enjoyed. Rich coffee flavor without tasting too bitter or overpowering--would absolutely get this again. Sweet Cream w. Strawberry (D) - unfortunately, a miss for me compared to the others. Too creamy for me and not enough strawberry flavor to justify choosing it over the Very Strawberry. Overall, the adventurous flavors completely stole the show here. My tier list by far: 1) Roasted Beets & Fresh Mint, 2) GOAT Cheese, Thyme, and Honey, and 3) Dark Chocolate, Olive Oil & Sea Salt. Unique flavors that actually feel intentional rather than gimmicky, and all three are instant repeat orders for me. Atmosphere-wise, the place was pleasant, parking was surprisingly easy, and while it wasn't overwhelmingly crowded, the place is definitely more popular than it first appears. I never thought I'd be a fan of Americanized ice cream--usually it's way too sweet for me--but Lick completely proved me wrong. Somehow, the flavors felt balanced, intentional, and actually let the ingredients shine without drowning me in sugar. Touché, Lick. Dangerous spot for indecisive people because suddenly you're convincing yourself that yes, maybe you do need another scoop.

While we were there, it was always a packed line so it definitely gets really busy from 8-9PM! We got three larges for a total of twelve flavors, a little bit of overlap: Mine: Dark Chocolate Olive Oil and Sea Salt - Really liked this, the bitter saltiness offset the creaminess really well. Coffee with Cream - A very light but roasty coffee, like a light coffee. I liked this!; Goat Cheese, Thyme and Honey - The herbal flavor is more subtle than I expected! Not too sweet, liked this one Sweet Cream & Strawberry - this one didn't stand out much to me Others: Roasted Beets and Fresh Mint - I really liked this one! The beets and mint hit on the back of your tongue, yum Chocolate Chocolate - Very intense chocolate, not too crazy about it though Cookies & Cream - Surprisingly good! I liked this one Very Strawberry - way more strawberry than the sweet cream. I'd recommend this over the sweet cream and strawberry Hill Country Honey & Vanilla Bean - Pretty light, a classic. Thought it was okay. If I had a tier list it would be: 1) Coffee with Cream 2) Goat Cheese 3) Dark Chocolate Olive Oil 4) Roasted Beets and Mint 5) Cookies & Cream 6) Very Strawberry 7) Vanilla Bean 8) Chocolate Chocolate 9) Sweet Cream & Strawberry Overall, a few hits, a few misses, but it was a fun tasting experience. We paid via inKind with no issues, which made it a pretty solid value.

There's a good variety of flavors and things they serve from italian ice to ice cream and shakes. We opted for a strawberry italian ice with condensed milk on top. From the first bite we were in heaven. The flavor is very thorough which is not always the case for Italian ices where it can sometimes be a bit muted. Every single bite of this was packed with flavor. They also carve out a bit of the middle to put the condensed milk which makes every bite much more equal than if it was just placed at the top. This was by far one of, if not the best, Italian ices we've ever had. We would very much recommend it to anyone in the Downtown area looking to cool off.
