Popped into the Van Leeuwen over at Darien Commons (right off Heights Road across from the Noroton…read moreHeights station, right next to Cookie City and across from Gregorys Coffee). Parking in the public lot is easy enough to find, though it definitely gets a little tight navigating in and out during rush hours. The shop itself is super bright and clean, and the outdoor courtyard seating is great when the weather is nice. The staff working was incredibly friendly and patient. I ordered three scoops of their vegan ice cream on a vegan sugar cone. The team member was so careful stacking each scoop to make sure the whole tower wouldn't topple over--I managed to snap a quick photo of the masterpiece (see photo!), but sure enough, I didn't get very far before gravity won and the whole thing came tumbling down. Without missing a beat, the staff member immediately made me a fresh one and kindly packed it into a cup this time around. Super helpful and genuinely great customer service. The ice cream was delicious, as always. Definitely hitting this spot again--though probably only after a heavy workout to balance it out!

My dining companions found their milkshakes to be a little on the sweet side. The vibe was classic diner, and it was packed in there so it got a little noisy. I would definitely eat there again! Five stars.

I am sad to update my review to 1 star after my latest experience(s) here…read more 1. I believe I got food poisoning from here, and reported it to the establishment. I got extremely, violently sick for 2 weeks and shared everything with the restaurant so they could look into it and prevent other patrons from getting ill. Instead, they did not respond to my report and completely ignored it. I the reported them to the city inspector, who went to investigate them, and they did tracing of my case. 2. The first floor smells like sewage, and had been smelling like that for many months, if not close to a year. The city inspector told me that they notified the restaurant and the restaurant said they fixed the smell -- I went back in and it still smelled like sewage. So, the restaurant had flat out LIED to the investigator about the bathroom smell on the first floor. 3. The floor and chairs/ seats are dirty with stains. They absolutely need to clean way more. The safety, sanitation, and hygiene in this restaurant is one of the worst I've seen and experienced. If you value your life and health, avoid this place.

We got a large cotton candy gelato, two blizzards (unfortunately they were out of snickers so we had to do Reese's peanut butter cup - sad face), and a chocolate vanilla swirl cone. We got our moneys worth! They don't skimp on the portions or toppings. The guy working the window was super kind and friendly. He even asked if we wanted vanilla or chocolate for the blizzards (I didn't know chocolate was an options) and gave us an extra cup and spoon for the cone without asking. They take Apple Pay and are super fast. Can't wait to go again!

I ordered the caramel cookie gelato, which was delicious, just a tiny bit too sweet (I enjoy sweets, so this says a lot, haha). The next flavor I added on top of the caramel cookie gelato was the maple walnut ice cream. The maple walnut was crafted perfectly. I am unsure what my grandpa, grandma, and dad ordered, although they all enjoyed their ice cream as well! I appreciated how eagerly attentive the staff were when we ordered. They were even beyond informative and very patient when we were making our order. Overall, this place was worth the drive to see our family friend and left us full and happy for our drive back home!

It is a substantial sandwich with a lot of warm pastrami. It's very tasty, though next time I may ask for Russian or Thousand Island dressing instead of mustard. My co-diner opted for a grilled cheese with tomato. She liked it, but didn't love it. Their bathroom is trhough the kitchen downstairs, and I'm not sure they want patrons using it, but they did allow me when I asked. It would be better if they could add one upstairs that's more accessible. This is a very busy place, many order ahead. That said, my longest wait has been about ten minutes. Once again, Mish Mosh deserves a solid four star rating for this visit!
