    Sooooo good! They have a variety of toppings, mix-ins, and flavors. Service is quick and to the point and they are so skilled at creating explosions of flavors. Although large, it's not really a spot you'd want to sit and enjoy your ice cream but you can.

    Brown Sugar Milk Tea Thai Milk Tea Bubble Milk Black Tea
    Mark Nowell M.

    Location: it is located in Grand St, you can easily find the location because it's at the corner. Few seatings inside. Huge menu on the wall. Service: I just ordered and go, not much interaction. Food: I almost taste all the flavors but my favorites are: THAI MILK TEA: this one is good because you can definitely taste the Thai tea. BROWN SUGAR MILK TEA: It is good because not your usual sugar! I felt like it is black milk tea drizzled with brown sugar. BUBBLE MILK BLACK TEA: very classic flavor, and it's my favorite because it is simple. The BOBA was soft and chewy inside! Price rating: 7 out of 10. Regular price for a boba. Around $7 for one Well all recommended! Will try other bubble tea flavors when I come back!

    There are so many options to make the best milk based rolled ice cream but I may have just been a bit to basic with my choice. I will say you may want to look up the options before going inside because once it gets busy, the place is packed.

    Rolling strawberry ice cream

    Nice chill spot to visit if you have a sweet craving. Quick service and friendly staff :) i got the strawberry rolled ice cream with nilla wafers and my friend got chocolate rolled ice cream with graham crackers, it was tasty!!

    Checked out this ice cream spot since it's been a long time since I had rolled ice cream. The Thai flavor surprisingly tasted so so good and was extremely creamy and sweet. The matcha was good as well but the Thai flavor stood out to me the most. You can see the employees make the ice cream in front of you and can get unlimited toppings which is sweet. Would love to have seen more enthusiasm from the staff but they were extremely nice.

    Rolled ice cream stores seemed to be everywhere before the pandemic but are now harder to find. Minus Celsius does the job - good selection of flavors and toppings. Had the Crazy Cookie and the Caramel Crunch - both were good. Friendly service and seating available.

    Hong Kong Style Egg Waffle with ice cream

    Came here a few years ago and loved it right away, I came across it once again today and wondered if the quality will be the same and to my surprise it was better! Delicious, quick and nice staff!

    Chocolate rolled with strawberries, nutella, and pocky sticks.

    The prices at first seemed a little high but you actually get so much food and the options are really great to choose from, enough variety for most people to find something they love. I got strawberries on mind and they were fresh and it was all delicious. If i remember right i paid about 10$. The store wasnt super clean but i didn't expect it to be because of the part of town its located in. I still definitely enjoyed it. They had wall outlets too which is good. No restrooms.

    Bussin Monkey with egg waffle
    Stephen L.

    Great spot for rolled ice cream. I got the Bussin Monkey rolled ice cream (chocolate with Nutella and banana mixed in) with an egg waffle. The egg waffle was delicious with almost a Mochi-like consistency. The rolled ice cream was tasty as well. I could see that they made it from what looked like chocolate milk and then chopped in some bananas and Nutella as the milk froze into the ice cream form. A nice perk of this place is that you can add unlimited toppings with no additional charge. I got some fruit (mango, strawberries, and blueberries), which tasted pretty fresh. The Pocky sticks and mochi bits were nice additions too. $14 is decent for this considering it is large enough for two people to enjoy. The shop itself is a bit small with a few spots to sit. The staff were not particularly friendly, though the service speed is decent. Overall, I would recommend Minus Celsius to you if you are looking for tasty rolled ice cream in the Chinatown area.

    Banana Mango
    Ashley S.

    Great ice cream, bad service and bad serving. I was served my ice cream absolutely dripping over and all toppings just falling. There needs to be more space in the cup, aka using a larger cup or space out toppings accordingly.

    Machine donut yummy   must try! FRESH from waffle maker!

    Really Good! I just eat lunch and have to stop to try this! Lust to try even you full

    Thai Milk Tea
    Sabrina H.

    This is a great spot for rolled ice cream if you're in Chinatown! The server was really friendly and explained that we could choose unlimited toppings for our ice cream. I got the Thai Milk Tea flavor and it was really good! The portion was quite a lot for me to eat, so I recommend splitting it with someone else. The space itself is pretty small, as with a lot of establishments in the area, but there are a couple seats available if you're looking to eat your ice cream indoors.

    We ordered this spot for delivery as an add on to an Uber eats order and I was pleasantly surprised. We got the make your own item and it came with 3 mix-ins and 3 toppings which for $9.50 is honestly a steal as cold stone and other places would run you more money. My favorite mix-in was the mochi and they have a variety of options but the mochi was perfectly chewy and delicious. I also liked the poppy sticks and fresh strawberries. The ice cream was amazing. My pictures don't do it justice as it was a little melted because we saved it for after dinner. Overall, I will definitely visit this stop or order delivery again when I'm in NYC.

    Tasty rolled and regular ice cream. The bubble tea is decent too! I enjoy coming here to do some light studying with a cup of bubble tea.

There are different types of cold treats: gelatos and more slushie like consistency frozen confections that are served in a cup. My vegan friend appreciated that he could choose from multiple vegan flavors, not just be limited to the one and only offering, which is what most places usually have. Melon flavor was incredible. Tasted like frozen melon was crushed with ice and chopped into an ice/smoothie blend. Super refreshing. Very sweet, though. All flavors are very sweet, so a small portion can be shared and you will feel satisfied. I personally enjoyed their in-house special flavor of gelato: honey cream with crushed almonds, pistachios, and hazelnuts. That was bombastic! Love how nutty the consistency was. I love nuts, so this almost reminded me of a chunky peanut butter situation: just more fine grained and smooth, with gelato being the base. Highly recommend trying this flavor! Focacia was okay. A bit too dry and bland for my liking, but still decent. My favorite item was the pistachio bombolone which is officially now my favorite dessert. This was magnificent! The yeasty dough was so light and airy--perfectly light and balanced. The filling of pistachio cream was very delicate and not sweet at all, which was such a nice surprise. I do not like saccharine dessert. The fresh raspberry jam was a perfect balance to the pistachio cream. I never like jams in my desserts, but this was a perfect complement. Woooow, what a treat! Can't wait to return for it and to try more of their other flavors--hazelnut & chocolate, coconut, white chocolate, tiramisu. You could taste the superb quality of the ingredients. Highly recommend.

Don't remember what I had the previous 20+ years I went there after a group dinner. This time I was influenced & specifically took a bus over for their corn ice cream. It's STILL the summer of corn. Prices are now average - good for a scoop $7.50 & the portion is good compared to other craft ice cream shops in LES. The corn flavor was good. Medium flavor with that corn sweetness. The quality of the ice cream was excellent, medium creamy & very smooth with the teeniest bit of corn blended. Sampled the hazelnut which was great also - like a thick gelato. Would like to try the lychee next time. They have probably 20 different flavors, displayed well. The staff is patient & very nice. The space is very big for a business in the East Village with mostly a waiting area. 4-5 seats are up front & they set up a few plastic chairs on the side. On a 90°F day, the shop was filled with customers & groups. A stantion at the door with directions for 2 lines would help manage things better.
