I want to preface this review by overstating the fact that this location has some of the best nitro…read moreice cream I have ever had. And I have had nitro ice cream throughout Austin and California when I used to live there. Their birthday cake and animal cracker ice creams are to die for and are an absolute must try. I don't find the ratings on this shop to be fair because people are more inclined to leave negative reviews than positive. I have had nothing but a positive experience with this location every single time I have visited. I tell everyone within my circle about this hidden gem in Taylor. They do get pretty busy on weekends but I have not had any issues with the customer service on that front. They have an amazing selection of novelty candies and bits and bobbles... There is something for everyone at this location. Here is a quick insider tip: If you buy a candy bar, you can ask the associate to use it as a mix-in into your ice cream. We took a rum chocolate bar and used it as a mix-in and it was pure heaven. Great job Big O's!

The staff was super friendly and helpful as we had never been here before and couldn't quite figure…read moreout how to order. Basically, pick your base, flavor and a topping and they make the ice cream right in front of you with nitrogen. Super fun experience and delicious ice cream! I got the cake batter with frosted animal crackers and it was very rich but delicious! There were tons of candies and treats to choose from around the store but we didn't get any. Just looking in some of the candy containers I did see a few gnats and things trapped in there so I'd maybe stick with packaged treats. Other than that, we really enjoyed this experience!

This medium sized restaurant has just about everything you'd want served all day long. Breakfast,…read morelunch, and dinner? They serve it all day long. It's a cute nostalgic space with old-timey instruments displayed in the corners and has a really unique feel. The wait staff is friendly and funny and very knowledgeable about the menu. Personally, I've had the big thick burger and the pulled pork sandwich. Both are delicious. Others have had the chicken fried steak, the lasagna, and everyone I've gone there with loved it. Great comfort food and delicious pie for dessert. Try it, you'll like it!

Cute little spot located on taylor highs old campus- specifically the old band hall…read more Great way to repurpose the old building! Food was pretty good. Full bar avaliable and if I recall breakfast lunch and dinner sold all day! I had french toast and cheese grits- tasted just like it does at home- as expected I guess but nothing that gave me the wow factor I was hoping for, cheese grits however were really good, Kinda thick but packed with flavor! Eggs were cooke just right and potatoes were good too however came out luke warm like they had sat for a bit before being sent out, the pancakes were kinda like the french toast as it tasted like something you make at home but still good! Lots of pies to choose from- I went with a slice of buttermilk to go! It was good but i'd try something different next time I come by! We were at right away around 11am on saturday. Our waitress was nice and everything was out quick! The bathroom however needs some work- definitely something that's been there for QUITE sometime with no fix ups- dirty floors and walls, leaking handle when you go to flush. I will be back to check out more of the menu next time we are in the area!

If a Mexican restaurant can't make a vegetarian taco salad right, then you are off my list. It's…read morethe simplest most basic food to put together. And you mess that up? How? This vegetarian taco salad was basically a bowl of chopped lettuce and more lettuce and more lettuce, some cheese, tomato, sour cream and mashed avocado on top to hide the mountain of lettuce underneath. Wasted my unrecoverable $10 and time on this. Chicken enchiladas were just fine. Nothing over the top. Service was okay. No complaints, no compliments.

May 2026 A+++++…read moreStopped here for a treat while visiting Taylor over Memorial Day weekend. The staff was super friendly and provided excellent service from the drive-thru. Not sure, but felt like the woman at the window/cashier might have been the manager. If not, maybe she should be due to her efficient, kind manner in taking our order and the outstanding customer service. We'll definitly stop here again when we are in town. We've loved DQ since we were kids and this one did not disappoint!

I learned today that the Taylor Dairy Queen does not honor rewards issued through the official…read moreDairy Queen app and email. I stopped by to redeem a birthday treat that Dairy Queen had sent to me and was only told after placing my order that they would not accept it. What disappointed me most wasn't the policy itself, it was how the situation was handled. When I asked about redeeming the reward, the manager responded with, "We don't honor that. If you want free stuff, try Hutto." The comment felt dismissive and unnecessary, especially when I was simply trying to use a reward that Dairy Queen had provided. The manager made me feel like I was asking for something unreasonable or trying to get "free stuff". In the end, it's my choice not to return, but it was the manager's choice to lose a customer, and my family's business over a birthday treat and a disappointing customer service experience.

I cannot recommend this place enough. I went for the first time Jan 15th, picked up two popsicles…read moreto go and tried the crazy shake and was delighted by the textures and careful arrangement. (side note, the popsicle/paleta held up beautifully on the drive home and was great 3 days later) I can't believe it took me so long to come back! Went back today at 6:45pm when the opening line for Amy's was 40 people deep, and I have no regrets. Customer service: We were welcomed in immediately, shown to the menus and the man behind the counter was happy to answer any questions, and was knowledgeable about their options. My partner was hoping for coffee and chocolate and he let us know their best match would be either tiramisu or cappuccino - and without that I'm not sure we would've tried tiramisu! Decor: This place is being slept on. Beautiful and vibrant art, bilingual almost everything, cute and comfortable seats, photo op walls. 10/10 bright and fun! I can't wait to bring my niece next time! Taste: This is Good ice cream. It is dense, melt in your mouth, good amount of toppings, doesn't leave a filmy after taste. I feel like it has a good depth of flavor, no freezer burn, and it just brings me joy. This review written with no AI, just autistic joy, cross posted on Google reviews - but for a balanced approach here are the reviews from the two people with me: my friend says "the tiramisu is just the right blend of coffee and balanced sweetness level" my partner "the Reese's is a subtle and not overwhelming flavor, pleasant surprise. I definitely want to try the cappuccino next!" Aaaaaalso they just got a new mobile truck unit, and if you see them out in your community soon, I am a huge fan of the Cookie Monster (blue) flavor.

All the meat had lovely texture and tenderness. Brisket was the star, not overly salted. Didnt care for the sweetness of the pork ribs, but the sausage was sausage. Potao salad was interestingly fine? Cole slaw was alrighty then-but i salt n peppered it up and swallered it down. Counter service with kinda friendly younger folks. Nice Historic atmosphere.

James Award for Culinary Excellence Winner Louis Mueller…read moreBarbecue is a Texas Treasure. The decor is rustic and smoke laden, just as any Barbecue place developed. The Old neon Grocery sign reminds us of the roots of this longtime, family business in Taylor, Texas. They take your order in line and by the time you are finishing at the register your food is handed to you on a tray and you go find a table. We sat in the adjoining room, which was less smoky. I had Brisket Burnt Ends, Pork Ribs, Cole Slaw and Beans. My brother had Brisket, Sausage, Cole Slaw and Beans. A side of warm Barbecue Sauce was provided along with Bread, Sliced Pickles, and Onions, as is customary in Texas. It was all wonderful, as always. Tender, juicy, just fantastic Central Texas Barbecue. Go on, get ya some. You will be glad you did.
