    Dairy free peppermint patty ice cream
    Cilicia L.

    This was my first time at Jeni's. I'm lactose intolerant so usually get sorbet at ice cream shops. I was wowed to not only have a dairy free option, but to have it be peppermint, my all-time favorite. And this was fancy peppermint with a fudge swirl and gluten free chocolate cake pieces. It was absolutely delicious! Service was great, and this place was bright and busy. There is seating along the wall opposite the counter, so my date and I sat and enjoyed our sweet treats.

    Always one of my favorite birthday freebies of course. But also frequent stop after dinner at the Domain. They have such interesting flavors and it's always fresh. They will happily let you taste as many as you want.

    I really like Jeni's! I've been to their LA location but was excited to see that they had a spot in Austin. The Brambleberry Crisp is incredible - it's basically berry pie mixed into vanilla. So creamy and flavorful. The limited Matchapolitan flavor was also delicious, you can't go wrong with matcha and strawberry together. Will be thinking of this place when I'm back in Orange County!

    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)

    Jeni's consistently puts out high-quality ice cream with creative flavors. The shop has a friendly, casual vibe, and the staff were welcoming and efficient. I ordered the Brambleberry Crumble, which had the perfect balance of tart berry swirl and buttery crumble folded into a rich, creamy base. My husband got The Queen Charlotte Sponge Cake and Maple Soaked Pancakes. Both were indulgent and sweet, but the creaminess kept everything balanced rather than overwhelming. Always a great experience whenever we visit any of their locations!

    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
    Amber L.

    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.

    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.

    Texas Sheet Cake Dairy-Free Frozen Dessert and Green Mint Chip Ice Cream
    Nicole Erin B.

    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.

    Patricia K.

    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!

    Gooey butter cake, salted peanut butter with chocolate flakes, brown butter brittle.
    Chanel B.

    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!

    $12

    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

    No.

    Never thought I would be a fan of Americanized ice cream (always way too sweet), but Lick proved me…read morewrong. Touché. The three of us each grabbed three flavors (F, E, D--haha, funny, right?) and rated each one with sugary zeal. Roasted Beets & Fresh Mint (F, E) - delicious, subtly minty, with a very creamy, mild beet flavor. I never had such a refreshing ice cream that wasn't sorbet. The mint really made a difference. I'm a huge fan of places that curate exotic flavors (a vegetable, really?) into their menu, which only increased my opinion of this place. Hill Country Honey & Vanilla Bean (E) - one of the smoothest vanilla bean ice creams I've had. It reminds me of a traditional ice milk soft serve. It wasn't the most impressive vanilla ice cream I've ever had, but it was still very good in its own right. Dark Chocolate, Olive Oil & Sea Salt (E, D) - such a great balance to the sweetness of the rest of the ice cream options. I always love little chunks of salt in sweets to cut through the sugary intensity, so this one was an instant favorite. GOAT Cheese, Thyme, and Honey (E, D) - a complete 100% hit. Probably my top, alongside the beets. My BFF said it tasted too much like a meal rather than a dessert and couldn't give it a high rating, but as a charcuterie fan, I know there are plenty of "dessert" cheeses. I mean... cream cheese, for example? But is that really a cheese...? Uhhh. Very Strawberry (F) - a clean strawberry flavor. A bit artificial, but still so great. It far outweighed the Sweet Cream w. Strawberry flavor we tasted later. Cookies & Cream (F) - I never liked cookies & cream before, but this changed my mind. It hits so hard when you get a full spoonful. Probably the only cookies & cream I would eat. My BFF's #1. Chocolate Chocolate (F) - love chocolate? Get this. That's all you need to know. Coffee & Cream (D) - oooh, reminds me of the keto coffee ice cream I had once. Would get again. Coffee notes are always great in ice cream. Was this a STRONG standout? No. But did it do its job? Yes. Sweet Cream w. Strawberry (D) - too creamy for me, not enough strawberry. My top flavors by far are: 1) Roasted Beets & Fresh Mint, 2) GOAT Cheese, Thyme, and Honey, and 3) Dark Chocolate, Olive Oil & Sea Salt. All three were unique flavors that I would absolutely get again. We sat on the little barstools watching the line get progressively longer as the night went on. It was really interesting to see how many people came in for a sweet treat at 11 PM. The atmosphere was pleasant, parking was pretty easy, and while it never got too crowded, the place was surprisingly popular.

Quite busy at 8:15PM on a Sunday! About ten people ahead of us and only two people working so it took about 10-15mins with people asking for samples and such. 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.

I would NOT eat Amy's under any circumstances. To be clear, I've only been once. Ambience leaves much to be desired, but the ice cream which is the main event does not even taste good. It has about 3 to 4 times as much sugar as it actually needs. In fact, I was physically ill from eating it. Not only does the ice cream itself taste too sugary in the flavors are too cloyingly sweet, but they then want to mix in additional candies and sugar items which blows my mind. I humored them and tried an ice cream with mix ins and was greatly underwhelmed. Everyone who likes Amy's raves about the Mexican vanilla but honestly, that is also way too sweet and tastes like drinking vanilla extract. I can only surmise that there are a lot of folks with unsophisticated palates in Austin, otherwise there would not be so many positive reviews and this place would not be in business. On top of it the whole mixing thing so gimmicky and annoying it just makes the lion go way longer. Anyone who thinks this is great has not ventured out and tried anything else because they're literally 10 other ice cream places that I can think of that are actually great. Looking forward to the day that this place churns to become something else that's actually tasty because it's prime real estate.

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.
