I'm lactose intolerant so tend to steer towards the sorbets, but when I've had the proper gelatos they've been sublime! despite their being free of dairy or fat, they somehow manage to make the sorbets taste genuinely creamy! more than one friend I've brought here has said this spot is the equal of any gelato they had in Italy proper! Yes I've heard this more than once. The staff have always been pleasant and your kids will appreciate how generous they are with samples!

Sirena Gelato has been at the Park Lane address for as long as I can remember, which means decades…read more They were half its current size before expanding into the left half for more interior seats. Their business is BOOM or crickets depending on the weather... For the recent visit, we chose the two scoops of rose water and pandan. Both are truly excellent. Both have its discernable flavor in a good way. I highly recommend both flavors, which I suspect are rotating flavors. Service was friendly. I honestly think they have excellent gelato; by itself, it would have been five stars. I also honestly think their prices are hella expensive. $7.95 for one scoop. $8.95 for the two scoops stack on top of each other in the same small cup. Downtown Seattle gelato shop charges $5.95 and $7.95 respectively. They need to lower their prices.

The darkside was an indulgent dark chocolate ice cream with generous cookie chunks, delectable! I got mine in a waffle bowl. It was about $7-8 for a small scoop, which some may consider on the pricier side, but I actually appreciate that the portions aren't too large. The lady working at the window was so nice :)

They offer samples of everything and the lady serving us explained what each flavor was! I really liked the gulab jamun on the ice cream.

The counter person recommended trying the salted caramel before ordering and so half be did. I love salt and I love caramel. As my better half would say, I'd never think she'd say anything was too salty but indeed I knew I couldn't eat a full scoop of salted caramel. Melted chocolate is a solid chocolate ice cream. Marionberry pie likely a personal preference but my scoop had a lot of crust and I loved the flavor of the Marionberry on its own w/o the crust. Next time will be trying a sundae w/the works.

5 Star on just the Red Bean soup review…read more Meet Fresh was always just a fun place to meet, collab, and vibe for the nostalgia of Taiwan times, was just always meh on most their stuff. Much of the hot soups just had waaaaay too much stuff in them. But adding the red bean soup by itself without all the foo foo stuff maybe 2 years ago was very welcome, albeit it's buried deep in the menu to find. This was very welcome to see and their red bean soup was noteworthy for repeat visits. However, in the last 2 visits, not sure if they changed something in the recipe, the red bean soup is now TOP TIER. Top Tier for USA that is, and well, that's where we are right now. It's DELISH, pick 2 sides, so far always peanuts, and either almond pudding or black sesame ball have been just smile oozing good. So good it's almost always on our minds after a dinner somewhere that we have to stop in at the Bellevue Meet Fresh right after to finish the night. It's so gooooood! Just the red bean soup and 2 sides! Do it!!!!

Came here on a sunny Friday afternoon and tried their $35 dessert set menu as part of Seattle…read moreRestaurant Week special offer! What a deal it is!! The SRW $35 deal comes with 2 drinks, 1 dessert, 1 mini signature, and 1 GIANT shave ice treat!! Got the strawberry and mango combo shave ice and the fruits are nice and fresh! One caveat - because the fruits are fresh, they won't be always on the sweet side and could occasionally be 'tart' (which goes well with the ice cream and the lightly syruped shave ice! If you don't like any tartness from the fresh fruits, I'd recommend ordering the brown sugar shave ice instead!! There was no wait at around 2:30 pm in the afternoon, and the service was fast and friendly! Also appreciate the ambiance and the sound tracks playing in the store!! Highly recommend!!!

It was love at first scoop! We were completely over the (Molly) moon!…read more Molly Moon's is a local Seattle ice cream chain. From the cute, friendly branding and store to the long lines out front, it was all more than enough to draw us in. We got their Matcha Strawberry (a seasonal flavor) and Scout Mint Brownie. As a side note: every single flavor we sampled was divine. It was so hard to choose! The Matcha Strawberry actually tasted like its name. The green tea flavor was strong with bright notes of strawberry. The Scout Mint Brownie is probably my favorite rendition of a mint chocolate chip. The mint was fresh and bright with no green artificial coloring in sight. It came with generously sized chunks of brownies incorporated throughout. So good! The texture of Molly Moon's is stretchy and chewy which I appreciate. Our new go-to ice cream spot!

WOW! If that's not enough to spend money/time wisely, they've also founded the Anna Banana Milk Fund to bring nourishing milk products to food banks in the local community. BUT ABOUT THE ICE CREAM. Standard flavors & rotating seasonals have the line running out the door, and this was the longest I've waited in line for a kids' scoop, but likely due to the hot spot location across from Bellevue Park, a gloriously manicured open space. Aidan was generous with samples, helping me land on some ALWAYS good flavors - 'Scout' Mint Brownie & Melted Chocolate for a sweet walk in the park.

4.5 stars! There is…read moresomething for everyone here! My partner and I wanted to get a sweet treat after a movie and this was one of the few places open late. We are both a fan of ice cream so we were excited to find this place. The menu is pretty simple which makes ordering simple too. There are several ways to get your soft serve but we decided to get the soft serve with the upside down taiyaki which was so good! You can choose your soft serve with just one flavor but they offer a mix too. You can also choose what filling the taiyaki has. I chose the strawberry and matcha mix soft serve and then I chose a matcha cream filling. You are also able to add toppings after and I went with a Biscoff topping. The soft serve was not overly sweet and the flavors blended super well. The taiyaki was also nice and crisp and the cream filling was perfect. Overall, one of my favorite desserts I have had in a while. The service was also super fast and super friendly. There were not any seats inside so it makes it hard to eat there but we just enjoyed the ice cream in the car. I am excited to return soon!

After watching others try to eat, rather fast I might add, the ice cream on top was entertaining. The quality of the ice cream, custard filling, and Ah-Boong was good.
