    Free sugar cone in cup, you love to see it
    Eric C.

    If Licked isn't already on your must try list for Sac dessert, then better hop to it. I can always appreciate a dessert joint trying to push the envelope, especially in a market as saturated as ice cream. What sets Licked apart is they aren't trying to make themselves standout with flashy marketing or gimmicks. Like I've actually never seen or heard them on social media mention, which tbh maybe they should be working with someone who can help spread the word. Otherwise, how else will people know where they can eat out-of-the-box ice cream flavors with a temperature sensitive spoon (doesn't count as a gimmick, if it's genuinely cool). For how small of a space they're working with, they manage to cram a lot of options too for those seeking gluten or sugar free alternatives. So if you find yourself fed up waiting in a long line at an overrated "iCoNic" Sac ice cream establishment and want to support a small Oak Park business instead, Licked is only a 2 minute drive away, trust me you won't regret it!

    After a nice dinner at Oaxaca, we decided to have dessert at Licked and it hit the spot. Susan, the owner, was working and she is always a delight. I've had the pleasure of chatting with her a few times at some vendor events. Inside is very small so outdoor seating is pretty much all they offer. We were a little bummed some of their sundaes were unavailable but the selection of ice cream made up for it. I opted for a double scoop of the Superhuman and the blue moon, it was like fruit loops overload and I loved it. My husband decided on the coconut one and it tasted exactly like an almond joy bar. I'd much rather support this business and their yummy flavors over a BR any day!

    Lickin the vegan passionfruit !

    What use to be an all dairy-free entity, is now chocked full of both options and unique flavors and many choices, even Ice cream nachos! from the friendly service to the rad options and deelish flavors, Lick will have you drooling and cooling down with their ice cream goodness. My dog and I stopped in during first Fridays and we shared the passionfruit. It was so pure and clean, refreshing too. The color changing spoons were super fun, it's all about the details! We are excited to visit again for more vegan flavors, some ice cream Nachos, and the Pup-cup to-go option.

    I mainly came here because they have pup cups of frozen yogurt. My dog loves it! The ice cream is not bad, most flavors I tried are a bit too sweet but I ended up getting one that had caramel and some bits in it. Cool location though, they have a nice ice cream sculpture on the corner of the block!

    I absolutely loved this place! The ice cream was delicious, and the owner was so kind and welcoming... the kind of energy that makes you instantly feel good about supporting a local spot. I especially love that it's LGBTQ-owned and like so many of my favorite LGBTQ-owned businesses, it's full of personality, creativity, and the friendliest people. From the giant ice cream statue out front to the awesome wall art inside, the whole vibe is fun, vibrant, and totally unique. I enjoyed my ice cream so much that I couldn't leave without ordering a second one to take home! If you're looking for a great local ice cream spot with heart, flavor, and major charm, don't skip this place! You'll leave with a smile (and probably a second scoop).

    Ice-Cream on a warm day PERFECT! so many Unique flavors and my one favorite Super Human *cherry,vanilla and blue moon ice cream swirled together* oh tasted like fruit loops so so good! Service GREAT! store on a corner with a huge Ice-Cream Cone out front with Tables and chairs to enjoy your treat. Merch Inside and Staff helpful with my ice-cream picks . They do get busy and you can find parking around the area streets

    Came across this place in Oak Park and wanted to check it out! I believe this place has rotated through several creameries, so I hope this one lasts. The staff was incredibly friendly and allowed us to try many different flavors. We ultimately settled on the Fat Elvis, a banana ice cream with chunks of peanut butter and chocolate. Super unique and great flavor! The prices are also quite fair. There are a few places to sit outside and a bar seating inside. Overall, this seems like a very family friendly place! A quick shout out to the color changing spoons. Those are super fun and I definitely took mine home to wash it and reuse. :)

    Lots of love
    Alondra V.

    The most amazing color changing spoons have never seen anything like it. It was amazing to see super kid, friendly my nephews enjoyed it. Ice cream tasted incredible and staff was super friendly ! Free scoop for Mother's Day, which I found to be super kind of them

    Peanut butter/ cookie dough in a sugar cone=delicious
    Breanne C.

    We ate dinner up the street and took the chance on taking a walk (hoping for some dessert!) and came across this gem of an ice cream spot. The gentleman working behind the counter was very nice and the icecream was delicious! We had the peanut butter/ cookie dough, apple cider donut, and black cherry... we enjoyed them on their cute little patio.

    Licked is located in Oak Park, not too far away from a lot of amazing resturants. There isn't a parking lot but there is some street parking not too far off. When entering the store, it was a very colory vibe and decor! They also had nice outdoor seating with string lights! The staff was very friendly and we were able to let us try a few flavors. I ended up getting the Kitty Kitty Bang Bang, which is a rasberry and cherry cake flavor! If I am in the area, I would definitely be open to come back! Whats cool as well is that they have rotating flavors so I hope I get to try something else unique next time!

    I wish I could rate Licked a 20/5! I've stopped by twice now and each time the service has been just so wonderful. The owner has to be one of my favorite persons I've ever met - super nice, informative (told us all about the flavors), and so hilarious. I stopped by after work with my coworkers to get something to cool down with and distress after a long work week. I got the matcha ice cream (not pictured) and it was so good! I also tried a sample of the vanilla and espresso ice cream which I am definitely going back for. The shop doesn't have a lot of seating and it is a bit small so it does get crowded when it's busy but there's plenty of seating outside which was fine by us because we got to enjoy our ice cream and people watch. I also really liked how reasonably priced everything was - I will definitely be back!

    The attempt at a vegan sundae. All they had was boring vanilla.
    Bridget W.

    Having been here twice now, I can say that from a vegan perspective Licked is just okay, but definitely not something I would go out of my way for again. I attempted on two different visits to try their vegan ice cream and not some fruity sorbet. Both times all they had was boring vanilla. The cashier sympathized, laughing about how she could try to zhuzh it up into a kind of sundae, so I gave it a shot. Licked unfortunately doesn't carry a non-dairy option for whipped cream though. The ice cream itself was decent in texture, but overall the $8 sundae felt mediocre and overpriced. Weeks later on my second visit where vanilla was again the only vegan ice cream option I just walked out. The place is cute and the service is friendly, but Licked is clearly more for dairy-loving folks. If you're looking for terrific vegan options, I would highly recommend going to Yume Gelato in East Sac instead. They have many vegan options and the selection actually rotates!

    After having a nice dinner with a fellow Yelp friend, we both concluded that even though we were somewhat already full and satisfied, we still had this urge to top off the evening with a dessert! That's when my dinner companion Bridget W., (who is a strict vegan), recommended that we try this cute little ice cream shop that she had previously been reading about, with all of their positive Yelp reviews. "Licked" is located downtown in an old neighborhood on the corner of Broadway and 34th Street. When we first arrived, we were greeted by a very sweet and helpful young lady. This ice cream and Italian Ice shop specializes in not only dairy, but in non-dairy, gluten free, sugar free and vegan options! I was amazed at the varieties of flavors available! (16 to be exact). The viewing case made decision making difficult! Eventually we narrowed our choices down. Bridget ordered a Vegan Vanilla Sundae, while I ordered the Sacra "Mint" O Sundae, which included brownie bites, hot fudge, whipped cream and chocolate sprinkles. This was one of the best ice cream concoctions I have had in a really long time! Just the right amount of richness and sweetness in every mouthful! Luckily, we had arrived at a good time, because after we sat down outside on the sidewalk patio to enjoy our desserts, several customers showed up and the shop became very busy. Apparently, I was jokingly singled out by some of the patrons for eating the rest of the chocolate chip mint ice cream that had been available for that evening! LOL! Anyway, I would love to make this place a habit, and return here again, and again!

Rick's was the only place open late that had actual desserts. I mainly ate their cakes. They looked amazing. But I really did not enjoy them. Too dry. Just not good, compared to other bakeries in town. Over the years, Rick's remained a Sacramento staple, and when they opened up their new location in Midtown, the dessert community welcomed them back and embraced their sweet offerings, bigger space, and late night hours. I never went til just a couple weeks ago. Around 9pm on a Friday night I was craving banana cream pie and the husband wanted cherry pie. On Yelp search, Rick's came up as the top choice that was open. So we went and stood in the long line. The place was crowded and loud. Lively and busy vibe. Line moved at a good pace and the staff helping were nice but hurried. So we took our lil pies to go. We both liked our chosen pies. Now I know what to order if I go back to Rick's. Pies over cakes. Every time.

Parking is a little bit hard to find, since you're mostly looking for street parking. Upon entering, the FroYo place had a nice interior that reminded me of a modern casual design with some contemporary elements that created a playful atmosphere. There were some high chair seatings to the right, and some lounge chairs to the left Unfortunately, by the time I came in, they were not allowing us to sample any of the 6 flavors which was a bummer (New York cheesecake, cappuccino, cable car chocolate, vanilla, pomegranate raspberry or euro tart). The flavors are pretty limited, so if you're looking for a place with a wider assortment of flavors, I might recommend somewhere else. However, the toppings bar was nicely stocked with a bunch of different things to choose from, which was one of its saving graces. Once you're done, you weigh your FroYo at the counter. I would've given a solid 4 stars to this place; however, while we were eating the FroYo, the man who was working decided to go into the back of his shop and listen to his shows rather loudly. I could hear the sounds from the shows over the music they were playing, so it made the ambiance a little awkward since I wasn't able to vibe to the music. Thus, creating a rather rambunctious atmosphere. Overall, I do think this place has some room for improvements, especially with their flavor profiles.
