    Everyone loves Lizzy's! There is always a line here for their excellent homemade ice cream. Their menu is huge and offers yogurts, sherbets, sorbets, no sugar ice cream, sundaes, smoothies, frappes, and adult ice cream (with alcohol). They also are a bakery and had cakes, cookies, tres leches, cookies, tiramisu, and even the now viral Dubai Chocolate. For cones they have shamrock green cones (since it's close to St. Patrick's day), sprinkle dipped cones, and peanut dipped cones. The Oreo ice cream is a dream for Oreo lovers, with generous chunks of the cookie mixed in. The black raspberry ice cream was packed with large, flavorful chunks of raspberry, making each bite a treat. They also give you huge scoops, so you definitely get your money's worth! If you're in a hurry they have grab and go ice cream containers to the side. There is a second room next the main dining area that has a lot of tables for seating.

    Can you say you've had ice cream in MA if you haven't been here? This place always has a line pouring out, especially in the warmer months. Sometimes they have unique seasonal flavors to try if you're feeling adventurous as well during May in coronation with the annual steampunk festival they had a special ice cream sundae! This was super tasty and adorned with chocolate gears. On the flipside, I was also intrigued by their mango tajine creation. I made a mistake with the flavor palette. I did not enjoy this as much as I'd hoped but I think I still finished it during other times I've tried their basic flavor such as meant and have enjoyed it. The chocolate bananas covered in nuts are also a solid option. Inside they have limited seating just given that they are downtown on Moody Street. Usually, they have tables outside set up during summer if the outdoor dining option is available. Overall, I've always enjoyed this place, but I wouldn't say they have the most memorable flavors.

    Lizzy's is perfect and consistent--- the ice cream is always high quality and prices are reasonable for the portion size. You cannot go wrong with any flavor, and I'd highly recommend checking out the seasonal flavors! During our most recent visit, I went for the classic Chocolate flavor (was wowed!) and my girlfriend went for the seasonal Apple Pie flavor. It was so delicious-- reminded me of having Apple Pie with Vanilla ice cream during Thanksgiving, except 10x better. A really solid place for ice cream in the Greater Boston area.

    Great massive selection and ice cream. Personally go with the coconut which is always great.

    Popular ice cream spot - first visit it was later in the evening 9pm Small waiting line - employees appeared busy. Plenty of happy faces sitting enjoying their cold treats of ice cream I don't often order a Sundae, this was that rare occasion. I ordered a grape-nut ice cream Sundae with chocolate fudge topping and this did not disappointment They offer small, medium and large portions Below is a medium- a small would be enough Go pay them a visit. I am positive that you will come back again ....

    Good icecream spot in the area but a bit expensive for the portions and flavors are rather standard. Nice place to stop in otherwise

    Good soup: If the owner/manager is listening - please crank those freezers. I would love to give Lizzy's a full five star review for the taste alone, but I can't (at least right now). The ice cream was incredibly tasty and the shop was really cute, but the ice cream itself was too soupy to stay on the cone. The first ice cream we ordered melted before it reached our hands. The scooper asked if we wanted a cup and planted the ice cream scoop side down. The cup quickly filled with soupy ice cream before we reached the table. We decided to pull out the big guns for the second ice cream and went with a waffle cone, which started out strong. A few minutes in disaster struck and the cone split in half, sparing my shirt but leaving me coneless. Great ice cream and lots of laughs - just needs to be frozen

    Lizzy's is a Waltham staple. I would argue it's one of the best ice cream shops in Massachusetts. Awesome flavors. The cones are sooo good. Lots of great toppings. They seem to have a rotation of flavors and I can't ever pick because they're all so good that I want to try them all. I love this place. I'm not a huge sweets person but when I want ice cream I'm going to Lizzy's .

    They even have it available at intermission at the Reagle Music Theater in Waltham

They also have a resturant for breakfast and lunch on Main st in Waltham center. During rest of week. The pulled pork sliders were very big , juicy and lots of meat. The salads were both homemade like from your own kitchen. Potato salad had just the right amount of mayo and seasonings. I really loved the cucumber salad. Its surprise ingredient was oranges. Wow such a shock. It didn't over power the rest of salad. It was light and very refreshing. It had lots of colorful ingredients. Like a rainbow of colors and flavors. I was a little disappointed in the brownie too dry for me. But everything else was a 10 plus and looking forward to going again and trying a different sandwich but will def get bigger salads for sure.

Often, it's a meal you know you will never have again, and, although you have had other meals just like it, it will never be the same as that ONE meal. When you talk about it, you make your audience want it too (rightfully). Well, it seems I am veering away from singling out one meal as being the sole trophy holder of my taste buds, and, leaning towards working on building a small list (if you will), because, Cricket Café has introduced me to the most delicious turkey sandwich I ever had in my life. I know, I know, it's a TURKEY sandwich, you got sandwich meat, bread, mayo, BOOM, lunch is served. Believe me you, I wrapped my head around this too, I even tried recreating it (came close) but, you just can't replicate perfection. Little did I know that when my company ordered lunch for a meeting that one sunny day in June, my lunch game would be changed forever. In fact, ALL of the sandwiches we had were such a hit in that small meeting of 8 that, a few weeks later, we ordered around 100+ lunchboxes (sandwich, chips, cookie) for our annual Hackathon attendees. Then, the unthinkable happened, I found them on GRUBHUB. Folks, looking for your favorite food spots on GrubHub is no different than food shopping when hungry or browsing Amazon when you can't sleep, it's good in theory BUT, in the end, you will have post-indulgence regret (which, we all know isn't really regret). Beautiful regret, on a full, satisfied tummy. I am not saying we have, I am not saying we haven't placed at least one order per week at Cricket Café since .. or a breakfast order (today). Don't judge. Cricket Cafes turkey sandwich to me, is what the moist-maker is to Ross (google it). I have also added a handful of colleagues to my turkey sandwich-loving circle. If you love food, and, supporting small-local businesses, check out Cricket Café. You will not be disappointed. PS: If anyone is curious of my #1 most memorable meal, it is a slice of cheese pizza from Bianchi's on Revere Beach.

So I get a large Chip's Tip sub and a few pastries for snacks. The bill was steep for what I got but I thought it would be worth it for my son to try the sub. After getting it, we split the sub and ate it in the car. Let me tell you that this was not the same steak tip I remembered. It was so bad, we tossed it in the garbage at the gas station next door. The steak was very tough and hard to chew - almost like the tips had been cooked earlier and then reheated for my order. Everything just seemed greasy. We also did not enjoy the raspberry turnover or yellow cream cannoli's we got for dessert. Maybe it was us or maybe it was the food but I will never go there again. We are not food snobs by any stretch of the imagination, and I rarely will say anything bad about a restaurant experience but we ended up going to Augusta's which is just a little bit down the road, for chicken just to erase this experience from our mouths. I know a lot of people will swear by their steak tip subs and that is great but it's just not for me anymore.
