Salt & Straw recently opened a shoe in Lincoln Road and I've already been twice! They're a delicious ice cream shop that really thinks outside of the box with their creative flavors. The staff is really friendly and can help you choose your flavors since they have so many! You get to sample any of the flavors you're interested in. I tried the salty donut guava and cheese, vanilla, and a cinnamon flavored one. Great flavors and quality. I will they are quite pricy at nearly $7 for a single scoop but you can taste the quality of ingredients. Definitely a great addition to Lincoln Rd. They close at midnight so you have ample time to shop around and stop by here for a sweet treat! read more

The customer service here was really good! The gentleman that helped us was extremely kind and had great recommendations. The ice cream was good but not something I was go back to or crave. I had the mint chocolate ice cream. The store was on Lincoln Rd so it is convenient if you are walking and in the mood for ice cream. The store itself is set up for an in and out experience. You get your ice cream inside, pay for it and you're out the door. read more

Love this spot on the west coast and so glad it's in Miami! Fall 2024 limited flavors are adventurous and fun. Love the Finnriver's Black Currant Apple Cider + Apple Pie vs Pumpkin Pie. Highly recommend asking the employees for their recs! Samples are generous and with a metal spoon. read more

Loved our visit. Loved how they encourage samples and give you real spoons which you discard in little holes near your hips. The flavors will continually change so find your passion. Salted caramel ribbon was a standout. I'm a whipped cream fanatic so would have given one more star for more whipped cream. The place is usually packed so if you see it empty, take advantage of a private tasting. read more

In 2011 Salt & Straw was created by Kim Malek and her cousin Tyler. After working at Starbucks when it was still a small busines. Kim wanted to create a business that fostered community around food so she thought of opening an ice cream shop. The only problem was neither had ever made ice cream before when they decided to go into business together. They started out experimenting in Kim's basement with farm to cone locally sourced ingredients. One of their most famous flavors is bone marrow with smoked cherries while Sea Salt with Caramel Ribbons is one of their most popular flavors. Eventually they began selling ice cream from a cart in the Alberta Arts District of Portland, Oregon. They have now grown to 36 locations and Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson is part owner of the company. Salt & Straw's motto is "If you ever stop believing in magic, eat some ice cream." In 2021 Salt & Straw opened their first east coast shop in Wynwood and this Lincoln Road location opened on September 1, 2023. I had always been curious to try their ice cream and was lured in by a seasonal Thanksgiving selection that included Parker House Rolls W/ Salted Buttercream, Cheesy Potato Casserole, Turkey Stuffing & Cranberry Sauce, Mom's Mango Pie, and Pumpkin & Gingersnap Pie. Unfortunately the line was long even on a weekday and the shop was staffed by only one person. Due to the nature of their creative flavors people want several samples which further holds up the line. By the time it was my turn I was more than ready to try a few of my own samples. I chose to try the Cheesy Potato Casserole and Turley Stuffing and Cranberry Sauce. Both flavors were sweet on the front end and dissolved into a more savory flavor on the back. The flavors were very complex and the frozen sausage piece was kind of unappetizing. I would bring the Thanksgiving flavors in a pint as a novelty to Thanksgiving dinner. They are fun to try but not anything I would want a full scoop of. I ended up getting a single scoop of honey lavender in a waffle cone. The price for one ice cream come was a steep $9 plus of course they want you to add tip. In addition to their seasonal flavors and regular rotation they also offer some flavors unique to Miami like Panther Coffee Chocolate Tres Leches and the Salty Donut Guava and Cheese. The honey lavender was ok. I wish I didn't feel so rushed and could have tried more flavors. More staffing would have improved my experience. In addition to ice cream they also sell ice cream scented perfume and candles, ice cream scoops, and cookbooks. I wasn't blown out of the water this time I am definitely interested in seeing what they roll out for Christmas. Typically they offer Apple Brandy & Pecan Pie, Gingerbread Cookies, Eggnog, and Candy Cane. read more

The best ice cream I've had so far in Miami! I tasted multiple flavors and all were great, but I got the huckleberry cornbread. The staff were amazing. I definitely recommend everyone to check this place out. I will be back. read more

Excellent addition to Lincoln road as we face these hot temperatures. Salt and straw also has several vegan (aka nondairy) options available at all times so your lactose free folks are not relegated to a poor sorbet or second class experience. You can order ahead for pickup or stand in the quickly moving line. Friendly faces sample and scoop your order. read more

LOVE LOVE LOVE it here. I went for the first time over a year ago when my partner took me on our first date and it's been a place we go to every now and then. I love the ambiance inside i wish they had an option for indoor seating but i can understand why they don't. There's a worker with an amazing accent and dressed well. He's customer service is beyond amazing. As for their flavors i like how they're always changing but miss some flavors when they leave. I highly recommend coming here if you're in the area! read more

Wanted to leave a review shouting out Izzy! He was so personable and gave me a whole tour of what salt and straw had to offer. He was so patient and let me sample so many options (I'm super indecisive). The store is in good hands with him around! He also PACKED that cone!! Such a great experience! read more

Amazing experience! We came in a Saturday night and I thought that parking was going to be a nightmare, but to our surprise or luck we found street parking straight across from them. I came in and checked in and Izzy warmly greeted me and welcome me. He was absolutely amazing and made this experience 100% better. He gave me a few things to try. I decided to go the the salted donut guava and cheese for my first scoop and the cinnamon snickerdoodle for the second one. Because those scoops were so different I ask if they could be separated and he said YES! The icecream was so good that I took a pint home. The vibe was amazing, icecream was delicious and the service was top notch. read more

Came here for the grand opening event. Super central location close to everything. I love salt & straw since I visited them in Oregon. I feel that in Miami, they don't push their weirder flavors. They kind of play it safe. Service was super quick and I love that they let you take as many samples as you want. They don't make you feel stupid for trying all the flavors. Love that they use reusable spoons for samples. Who doesn't like ice cream at the beach. Lincoln rd is always a nice area to walk through. I love how lively it always is. read more

I placed an order through their online system, which uses Uber Eats for delivery, and the experience was completely unacceptable. The driver opened the bag, stole one of the pints, refused to come to the door, and gave me the middle finger when I met him outside while handing over the rest of the order. That's theft and obscene behavior--completely inexcusable. Their own website and confirmation email clearly state to call the local store if there's an issue, which I did--and the manager was rude, dismissive, and completely unhelpful. To make it worse, I was told I needed to email their online ordering address. No--I want to speak to a human being who can actually resolve this. This was one of the worst customer service experiences ever, and nothing about it has been handled professionally. read more

This is such a cute and modern ice scream shop! I really like how they encourage you to taste test every flavor. They let you take your time enjoying each flavor and deciding what you want. The service was great as well. Everyone was super nice and helpful. Saltonstall has a variety of unique flavors like strawberry and balsamic which we are pleasant and refreshing. I personally chose the mint chocolate chip and a snickerdoodle combo. And we received many vials of chocolate and caramel syrup that are not pictured. I personally didn't like the flavor of the additional topping, but I didn't add them to my ice cream. Another nice touch, was that the taste testing spoons were actual mini spoons instead of continuously throwing out plastic trash they had a little section where you could put in the taste testing spoons in, to reuse once cleaned. I would give this ice cream place a try for unique flavors that rotate on a seasonal base. read more

Why was I hesitant to go by Salt & Straw with my friends after dinner for dessert? It sounds silly in hindsight, but I had an irrational fear that I wouldn't find a flavor that I'd choose to be my forever scoop. It turns out that I found too many candidates, thanks to the countless tastings they let you have of their ice cream before you choose which one to get. The servers are very nice about giving you tasters with tiny metal spoons, which are returned and washed so that you feel great they're not generating tons of trash by you trying out all of their ice cream flavors. The inside of the store is boldly painted with their signature red and white hues. They have a freezer for take home items (definitely worth a peek if you want to take ice creams or related products home). They keep the inside quite frosty cold, which makes sense for an ice cream shop, but just a note, it will be a stark contrast coming in from the relentless Miami heat. Want to know which ice cream flavors I tried? I'm a sucker for limited edition and ending flavors, by the way, so don't count on finding these if you go in a few months. Goat Cheese Marionberry Habanero: Tangy goat cheese tastes with a great habanero kick that actually works. Birthday Cake and Blackberries: As described, like you're a kid smelling the candle which was just blown out but you get some berries in there. Nostalgically sweet. Huckleberry Cornbread Pudding: Crazy that no one else has really thought to make cornbread pudding much after you try this. The huckleberry gives a great dimension so that you're not just literally eating cornbread. Jasmin Milk Tea and Chocolate Almond Stracciatella: Wonderful floral jasmin aromas but something was lacking with stracciatella part, like the chocolate and almond were hiding. Wild-Foraged Berry and Slab Pie: Delightful berry flavors and yummy pie crust making me feel like I'm eating creamy pie without giving me the regret after eating actual pie. This was one of my forever scoops. Barrel-Aged Chocolate Stout: Crunchy cacao nibs and rich cocoa flavor with coffee overtones and without being overly sweet. This was my other forever scoop. You get the option to get one scoop ($6.95), two scoops ($8.95), or get a split single scoop ($6.95 + $0.50) which is two kiddie sized scoops. The split single was perfect for me to get my 2 forever flavors. Two friends got a 4 scoop sample for $16, which comes in a partitioned plastic tray and would be a great deal to share with another person. What a lovely treat to have any day, with this Miami Beach heat! read more

So, I am a self proclaimed ice cream junkie. I even like unusual flavors, like you find at Salt & Straw. I didn't go off the deep end though and stuck with what I thought was a pretty pedestrian flavor, the snicker doodle cookie. The taste was good and it did indeed taste like a snicker doodle. The texture however was a bit gritty and took away from the experience. The service started out a little slow but another worker eventually came over and took my order and checked me out. It is a nice place and was very clean, but I'd probably hit up one of the other ice cream places on the Lincoln Road Mall before I went back. All that said, it is worth trying at least once, so don't shy away from it. read more

Friendly and fast service. Very assorted flavors for everyone to enjoy. The only con is that it has no seating inside.

Perfect location on Lincoln road! Got to hit this spot after dinner one day. To my surprise, they had some fantastic flavors and some of which were seasonal or temporary. The lager with guava icecream was out of this world! Sounds so strange but wow did it work! The salted caramel was stupendous as well. What I love is how creamy the icecream is and it's not overwhelmingly sweet. Tastes very fresh and homemade. Love that when you walk in they use real mini spoons to sample and you push them into an area in the wall that's the trash after tasting. My all time favorite spot for icecream in Miami is Azucar, but Salt n Straw just made it right beside Azucar on my scale of the best icecream spots in Miami-- which says a lot considering I've tried many. read more

Familiar with Salt and straw. I'm from La. But there was something definitely special about this location. The energy & ambiance was great soon as we step foot in the store. We were greeted immediately by Angie - such a beautiful soul. Her customer service was a delight. The whole crew was wonderful. We will definitely be back to this location. read more

Salt and straw is always a hit for me having been to ones in Portland, OR and San Diego, CA I was thrilled to find one on my recent trip to Miami. The Cherry on top of this find is that this location recently opened and I found a coupon code for a free scoop! Salt and straw always has a rotating menu of very creative seasonal options, one of which I ordered (Beecher's cheese & apple pie cinnamon roll). They also have a set menu of more standard and some more creative options. They also have pints to go in the fridge by the front. I also learned this visit about a "culinary perfume" they sell. The one I sampled was cocoa but there is also citrus, floral and waffle cone. They can be spritzed on anything you want to eat but ideally ice cream. read more

I was on Lincoln Road doing some shopping and saw this ice cream shop! I decided to try it out and WOW! It was soooo delicious, I ordered two scoops in a cup and the portions were huge. I got the cinnamon snickerdoodle and the salty donut guava and cheese, truly amazing you can taste the freshness and creaminess. I also found out they rotate their menu every month which just means I'll have to be back again very soon. Definitely recommend read more

Although this location only recently opened, I have already visited multiple times! I love their classic flavors and the fact that they have vegan options. My favorite feature is their constant revolving seasonal flavors, so the novelty will never wear off. The workers are patient (the person infront of me sampled almost every flavor) and informational. They even have "pup cups" which my dog enjoyed! My favorite part of the ambience- the waffle cone scent that you can smell a mile away. They even have a candle that captures that scent! read more

My favorite flavor always been coffee love nut but they always have special flavors for every months which keep me drive across town. Hope they open another one at either town square or st rose. read more

Our daughter lived a number of years in Seattle. She came home singing the praises of Salt and Straw and their unique ice creams. They finally opened at the busy corner of Lincoln Rd and Meridian Ave (the longtime Starbucks location). My husband and I decided to have an ice cream dinner! Yes, they give samples of everything ... making the decision making process all that much more difficult. Yes, the Pinot Pear Sorbet is a great pick. I paired it with the sea salt w/caramel ribbons - a good combination I thought. Really delicious. But I don't remember what my husband had; I was too busy enjoying mine! Watch out, they change their flavors, trying new mixtures so once you're hooked you'll have to return and return and return read more

if I could give more stars I would. I took my nut allergy son here for ice cream and had the most incredible experience. Whitney took care of us and not only was she nice, she was incredibly helpful. She went to the back and got a new container to get my son's ice cream from. She suggested it and was so kind. Thank you for allowing my son the enjoyment of getting ice cream from an ice cream shop, most places just say they won't accommodate. Thanks again and we will be back. read more

Service is amazing at Salt & Straw on Lincoln Road. Went in on a Thursday night for my first time. Nigel and Adam were so helpful. Offered tastings ....friendly and happy to serve me.

Just left this place, an employee was eating different flavor ice creams with the same spoon that he kept dipping in the water thing where they keep the scoops. While we were there he had at least 10-12 tastings. Quite a turn off. read more

I was so excited to come here as I've had their ice cream before and it's delicious! Unfortunately, I was met with staff who seemed like they did not want to be there. Turned what should have been a tasty experience into one where I will not return. To management: your product is top notch but hiring practices needs some work. read more

Great ice cream but they have one person working in the store and there are 20 people in line. Unacceptable. Whoever is the store manager and regional manager should be fired. People are turning around and walking out they're losing half her business. read more
