Everest Ice Cream Shop, in my opinion, is a "gem" on Elmora Avenue. I was looking for a place to…read moregrab a scoop of ice cream after having lunch in Roselle today, and found this place on Yelp. As the name suggests, ice cream is their specialty; however, this locally-owned parlor also offers a small but authentic selection of Mexican street food and sweet treats, too! FOOD: Esquites (small @ $5/ea): A couple others I was with ordered esquites, but I was able to try it. The basic ingredients were all there and tasted how they should; I also saw some epazote mixed in. The only complaint we had was the excessive broth scooped with the corn; it was a bit too much. Nonetheless, their esquites was enjoyable. Keep in mind that they add quite a bit of lime juice, so ask for less if you don't want yours too tangy. Mangonada ($6): There is quite a variety of raspados to pick from, but I had to go with a classic flavor. From the mango and mango-flavored slushy (which added a nice touch) to the chamoy and tamarind straw, everything was on point. Although frozen mangos are used, it's not a deal breaker for me. SERVICE: The woman working inside was friendly and helpful. The 3 of us only waited a short 10 minutes for our orders. Everything is reasonably priced, especially since few places in NJ sell Mexican-style raspados. I'd love to see other snacks such as Tostilocos (with all the fixings like cacahuate, cueritos, rielitos, etc.) or a bag of Duros (topped with some lime juice and Valentinas) added to their menu in the future; however, even if it's kept the same, I will still be back to try their various paletas and ice cream.

Food is OK, with vegan and GF options available. Some food items, especially the sides can be hit or miss. Ive had the cole slaw and house salad and they were not on my favorites list.
