    I'm really happy with this frozen treat spot downtown Las Vegas. Everything hit the mark, and the price was a great value. The service was go-to level, friendly and quick and I felt well taken care of from start to finish.

    So good and such a fun place to hangout! The employee was a super cool dude also! There's in door and out door plus games while sitting. So many flavors both normal and alcoholic!

    What a gem! So grateful for my friend bringing me here. So many options to choose from and they let you sample if you can't decide or just want to try a new flavor. Mine on the right: passion fruit, sour apple, blue fusion Left: tigers blood, sour apple, blue fusion Wow everything I tasted was great but that tigers blood is thankfully my friend was willing to share Great service, our scooper took pride in her work and took her time. I would most definitely come back!

    We live in South East but my husband comes every week especially during the summer time! The ice is so soft and the flavors are very refreshing. Perfect for a hot day or dessert! You can even spike it up :) The inside is very nice and chill with R&B/ old school music playing and so is the outside patio if it's not too hot outside.

    I went to grad school in Philly and have a lot of fond memories of eating water ice during the summers I spent out there. So, Philly Freeze-Me is such a godsend. They have a great product, exceptional customer service, and the new DTLV location is absolutely beautiful. I actually had a friend (who's a Philly native) in town visiting a couple months ago, and I brought her here. She absolutely loved the shop's authenticity, and we happened to show up during their Distro Movie Night. So, we got to watch about 30 minutes of the classic film House Party, while eating our water ice al fresco. Epic! Food: 5 Stars Service: 5 Stars Ambiance: 5 Stars

    We were in Vegas for my birthday weekend this past weekend and freeze me, after all the hype on Tictok was definitely on our to-do list. We arrived Saturday night and was not greeted with a smile at all. There was a woman working there with sparkle shiny stuff in her hair and she just looked absolutely miserable. We weren't greeted, there was a line of people that were lining up in front of the glass display kind of like what you do at Cold Stone and she told all of us at once I'll take your order over here. No directions on who would be served first second or third. The couple in front of us ended up leaving but I did hear them say "man I don't even want to be here anymore she messed it up". We kind of felt the same way. But we were next in line so we stayed. When it was our turn she just said very plainly what could she get for us. We were looking for ideas, inspo, something! She gave us nothing. Just dry energy. We placed our order and sat down. The vibe was so dry and it was really disappointing. In the last 2 minutes we saw someone come in to start assisting. After a little research I figured this was the owner. Tall black man. He handed us our order with a smile and thanked us for coming and how much he appreciated it. I only wish he had been there from the start. Judging by the other reviews I'm wondering if the people mentioning a woman's customer service is the same person. I don't know if she's a co-owner or what but when you are a tourist destination that went viral it is key that you uphold that reputation or it makes that Limelight dim. All in all, it was delicious and I finished the large

    This is my son's second visit to this business in five or six days which confirms he likes it. The air condition is blowing the music isn't. It has a nice vibe. The location is perfect in between the art district and downtown so hopefully it's a catch all. There are a lot of choices as far as the flavors as well as the portion the prices are low so I would encourage you to take advantage of this while not many people know about them because as the summer progresses, they are going to be going to be popular. The customer service is OK. They're not overpowering or overbearing. They allow you to peruse the selection and are available when you need them.

    Amazing Italian ice, great location, and good service! I think the relocation of the business was a great idea!

    This is good but very sweet. I ordered the medium size and wished I had gotten the small. I definitely wasted a lot of it. I could only handle so much of it since it is very sweet. This would be great on a hot summers day. There should be more lighting outside, but the inside is very nice. There are a few areas to sit while we were there. There was a movie playing, but also some cool music with four TV screens making one huge screen for the music videos. Our server was very nice and helpful.

    Come 4 the vibes, pick a better flavor than me & bring ur own to-go cup. So lemme explain... Ya girl was fiendin' for a Slushie. Swore this spot had 'em--convinced I seen a machine once. Spoiler: I was hella wrong. Didn't figure that out 'til I got there. -face palm- GPS said I'd arrived but... naw fam. Arrived where? Outside looked like they took the "for lease" sign down and then left. No signs, no pics, no text. Just a building like, "hey girl... maybe." I was finna skate to 7-11 when I caught a lil neon "open" sign. Walked over & just happened to look up... well I'll be damned. The actual sign is huge, 40 feet up, and hidden behind a tree. Who gon' see that? Birds? Bwahaha. Despite the mystery, Yelp said "open." Sign said "open." So I walked in--and yep. #ShockedButGrateful The place is MASSIVE. Givin' "event space that moonlights as dessert shop for tax purposes." Minimal day club furniture. Random step-and-repeat in the corner. No menus on the wall. Very modern-sexy-cool... and empty. I was both confused and intrigued. Like wtf y'all be doing in here & how do I secure an invite?? Menus come as cute bougie lil books, Cheesecake Factory long. Quickly realized this wasn't Slushie territory--it's Italian ice. Which I didn't want. But I'm not about to leave a Black-owned biz empty-handed. I might be confused, but I ain't disrespectful. Flipped through endless pages. Landed on watermelon. Easy. Got my homegirl a "Smoove" too--hella berry flavors. While they prepped it, I snooped. Clean overall, just... teenager energy in the kitchen. The patio? Could host a wedding. A brawl. Both. Bathroom hallway = MVP. Custom wallpaper with pics of the owner, staff, and local celebs. VIBES. Then the plot twist. Lil mama handed me our ices, piled over the brim (yay!). But when I asked for a lid, she said she'd have to cut off the top to make it fit. Asked for an extra cup instead--"I gotta charge you for that." -blank face stare- "...I'm sorry, what?" Either I lose what I paid for... or pay more to take it all home? Ma'am. The Italian ice? Basic. Solid 3. My friend agreed. Other homie said, "Only worth it for the wild flavors--like Hennessy lemonade." All in all... cute spot, big spot. But between the camo entrance, menu decoding, and cup conspiracy... it was definitely an experience.

    what an elite ice cream shop in Las Vegas! i first heard of Philly Freeze-Me through Yelp app, and i was not disappointed. this shop can be a little hard to find, but it is located right behind the AquaBar. upon arrival, i was greeted with a smile, and the rest of the staff was also hospitable, also greeting us and offering us their recommendations and some samples. i ended up getting their Mango-Strawberry Ice, with caramel drizzled on top the ice cream was so delicious, with its fruity flavors blending well, and the caramel adding that tart taste i personally love. my brother also agrees with my assessment of this shop, and the shop's ambiance also is proof of their happy environment at the end, i thanked the staff, and JB in particular was so hospitable with the other guests. he explained the origins of their shop in Philadelphia, and you can see the Eagles logo throughout the shop, showing their loyalty to the city and its team! plus points because they had Spongebob on

    This is the best summer treat. Starting at like $7, you can get a delicious two flavor Italian ice like dessert. They have cocktail inspired flavors as well as other standard flavors like chocolate and strawberry. But truly what sets this place apart is their team's warm and welcoming nature to every customer who comes in. They will let you sample any flavors that you would like to before buying. Their location has large couches and tvs so you can enjoy your ice within a more temp controlled environment than outside this summer. As for the taste, it was mild but let it melt just a bit if you have a sensitive mouth as it is very cold and frozen.

    You don't gotta take a flight to Philly for some Philadelphia style Italian ice. Checked on Yelp got led her and was impressed. The woman working was nice and gave us samples eventually settled on the Hawaiian breeze and cherry. They had a few "spiked" flavors for the drinkers. The flavor of the Italian ice honestly was one of the best I've had. I love gelato and ice cream and all things of that variety but honestly Philly freeze me impressed me more after the experience! Hopefully this review captures someone's attention and leads them here lol since it happened to me, and they can enjoy a nice treat. I made a detour and it was worth it. Small inside area with Philly inspired wall art. Worth a try :)

    Sadly, did not love, Lu-It custard. While just off one end of the strip, like every other down town…read morearea in the US (outside of the strip) it is located in a sketchy area. On our visit, there were several sketchy people in the lot and some going to the adjoining liquor store. While most of the customers were nice family looking people, a few of them were on the sketchier side too. If this were the only issue, we would go back, but there were other issues as well. However, for the positives, parking was limited, but sufficient. Business was good and there was both a line and numerous people waiting for their food. The order area is well lit at night. Most of all, the servers are very friendly, helpful, and patient. Unfortunately, the rest of the downside are the most important things. The serving cup size is good, but the ratio of custard to hot fudge/toppings was way off. Most places do not give enough fudge/chocolate sauce/toppings, but here the ratio was half and half. This MIGHT have been ok if the fudge and toppings were layered as at other places that do not skimp on toppings, but here the fudge/toppings were the top half of the cup and the custard at the bottom. This made it difficult to get the custard and to get a proper ratio of custard to topping. Kind of like rationing your meat and rice or potatoes so you have some for each bite--you could not do this with the custard and toppings here. The custard quality seemed like it might be ok, but it was hard to tell due to the ratio and serving structure. Overall, Nielson's custard has the more standard concretes with mix ins and a larger portion size than Luv-it. Freddy's frozen custard, although not as good as Nielson's was still also better than Luv-it. If Luv-it could either layer its toppings and you have concrete custard consistency, then it could be rated higher. As is, you are better off driving the distance to Nielson's or just going to Freddys. Still, if you must go to Luv-it, just be aware of your surroundings and you will still get an ok dessert.
