Their rolled ice cream combinations are tasty but the made to order taiyaki truly takes the cake. Nice and crispy on the outside that gives away to warm and gooey Nutella. It is smoking hot immediately but hard to wait, hence the vanilla ice cream! The space was nice and bright, clean, and welcoming. They have redone their seating to include a couch which is very comfortable and can comfortably seat different parties with space in between. Always a treat and can't wait to be back.

The menu…read morehas quite a few fun options, including the famous Japanese fish-shaped waffles called taiyaki, with both sweet & savory fillings. I was pleasantly surprised to see Kadak Chai (Indian special tea) & Kashmiri Pink Chai Latte on the menu. Definitely something I'd like to try next time! We ordered the Gulab Jamun Rolled Ice Cream & Falooda. The rolled Gulab Jamun ice cream was good, but the Falooda was AMAZING! Perfectly layered and the presentation was on point for both. Before you head there, two things I'd like to mention...the prices are high! $10 for rolled ice cream feels a bit much & the service is slow. But if you're there to spend time with someone, go ahead & chit-chat until your dessert arrives :-P Because sometimes the dessert takes its sweet time... literally :D

There is a large backyard area if you are looking to stay a while and eat your treats. There are also many seating areas on the porch. When you arrive, the available flavors are on the chalkboard menu. I then told the employee at the counter what I wanted, and he even put them in a Ziploc baggie for me to take home. They made the drive okay, even though it took longer than usual, because a big truck decided to go 35mph on a 55mph road. I went with Mexican chocolate, lavender cream, watermelon, ginger limeade and orange mango. They were as delicious as I remembered. I also left with an item from the bakery. I enjoyed every bite of that, too. The Mexican-style popsicles are what Locopops is known for, but they also have ice cream. The locopops come in regular and mini sizes. They offer both dairy and non-dairy flavors. I didn't see the pints of ice cream until I was on my way out, or I would have picked one up too. In their retail area, they also have some non-food items like puzzles, games and cards. I think I saw some soaps and jewelry, too. So you might just find a gift for someone here, too.

My husband had the ice cream nachos with butterscotch dip and rainbow sprinkles, Our favorite part of these were the waffle chips. Would highly recommend that dish. The shop is cute but got very busy while we were there and there was only one employee. I felt really bad for her because she got swamped but she handled it well. Definitely give it a try if you are in the area.

They have some outdoor seating, but we made a quick stop, so we didn't hang out.

The inside was rather spacious and there were some seats in the back for people to do work or study. I found the service to be timely on the day I went. I got the Rainbow Fresh Fruit Tea. It tasted like the name: very fruity with some passionfruit jelly at the bottom. I did get the drink at 70% sweetness, but it tasted like 100% sweetness. Next time, I would get 50% sweetness or less because it was too sweet for me. I did not get the rolled ice cream here, but I am sure it would have tasted amazing as I have gotten it at another location before. Overall, a solid spot for desserts and drinks.
