Hell to the yes to the yes, yes, yes! I walked into Social Ice feeling like I was visiting an old friend that I used to raid their fridge when I went over. It's wonderful! The initial shock of the simplicity of Social Ice wore off once I saw their wall to wall menu. And they also have some secret items like the Strawberry Special which you 100% should order if you like A. Strawberries; B. Ice Cream; C. Sorbet; D. Fresas con Crema or; D. all of the above. There is no real seating outside of the two lone benches. They have the room so I hope they'll add some small tables and chairs in the future. I ordered the Strawberry Special and fried Oreos. So the Strawberry Special comes with strawberries, crema, vanilla ice cream, and strawberry sorbet. So good and an amazing combo with the fried Oreos! The fried Oreos were done to perfection, not too much batter and the melty goodness that is usually only attained when dunked in milk for 10 seconds. I wish there was a Social Ice on the Westside, but I don't mind making this a pit stop any time I'm on the Eastside. My husband seemed to like his Tiger's Blood shaved ice and his funnel cake so I know it won't be a hard sell for him.

If you are looking for a great dessert place look no further. With their plentiful options and a delicious menu Social Ice has it all. From fried Oreos to shaved ice, it never disappoints, be open to different options as they are all great options depending on your craving. I've been here plenty of times and will be back.

Oh my funnel cake. Such a glorious treat! Eat like a fat little kid at the rodeo with fresh, ooey gooey fried and/or yummy frozen treats. Prices are extremely reasonable and the funnel cakes were the size of my head! I also loved the natural ices because they weren't sickeningly sweet. Instead, they taste rich and light with the fruit's natural sugars. They have some unique ice flavors like cucumber, and you can make tons of different creations out of their endless menu options. If you like a classic fresh fruit cup, you can get that too! The fried oreos were fast, fluffy and hot. Any of the funnel cakes could easily feed a group of 3. Overall, I think the menu has something for everyone. Please bring one to the West side so I don't have to drive so far to get here!

Yes, yes, yes!!!!! Oh baby what a find and what a shock to my taste buds! How I had never heard of this place is beyond me. Listen to this: fried Oreos, twinkies, gansitos, ice cream, specialty funnel cakes, snow cones of all kinds, and many many more! The down side no seating what so ever, not exactly convenient. Although it wasn't too bad sitting outside on the curb, it wasn't my finest moment I'd say. Thank God it was night time and not hot out, because it was either that or letting 3 munchkins in my car with their snow cones, nope not a fat chance in hell I'd allow that... The staff was nice and knowledgeable and knew the menu fairly well. So now for the dessert.... I ordered the mother of funnel cakes! On the bottom a funnel cake perfectly crispy with powdered sugar, then a layer of whip cream, a scoop of vanilla ice cream, topped of with fried Oreos, chocolate syrup, and more freaking Oreos. I have never been so excited in my life. My kids literally took one look and forgot about their snow cones, lol. Which I was kind of glad because I would of felt like a real pig downing all that by myself. The fried Oreos were a big hit, my kids described them as Oreo donuts. Their snow cones weren't too shabby either. My son he had the Ninja Turtle Michael Angelo and the girls the pink panther of course, my husband had the Piña Colada. My husbands was really good, it had pineapple and natural coconut ice cream, which was water based so it was very refreshing. I really enjoyed this place, but hopefully they will have somewhere to sit next time. If you're looking for something sweet and unique swing by this place, you will not regret it. Hell bring your lawn chairs...

Not just an ice cream place. They have really good funnel cakes, flavored ice, and fried junk food like oreos and pb&j sandwich. Everything they post on their Instagram looks so good! I'm a big fan of their funnel cakes (they're big enough for 2 ppl) now that the weather is chilly, but during the summer I enjoy flavored ice. The pepino was chamoy is so good and refreshing. The venue itself is small. They accept cash and credit. They don't provide complimentary water from what I saw. Maybe if you asked for a cup, but they don't keep any out front. There are no bathrooms and only a few places to sit. From what I've seen, most people order and take it to go. Would be nice to have a few tables and chairs outside. My only complaint is that it smelled faintly like a nail salon the last time I went. Not sure why though. Every other time I've been there, it's smelled fine.

The other reviews inspired us to give Social Ice a try and we are sure glad we did. We ordered a Strawberry Lovers Funnel Cake to share. It was amazing. The funnel cake was nice and crispy and the toppings were great. The owner stated he buys the fruit fresh that day and it was obvious he did. My daughter and I split it and it was plenty for the two of us. My littlest got a small snow cone. She ended up sidelining it to get in on the funnel cake because, yes, it was that good. The menu is huge and diverse and if you love fried foods, this is your spot. Even though it's a dessert place they also had a small menu of snack foods- including fried pickles. It's pretty much like my dream place. Fried and fattening and sweet and amazing. Unfortunately, there won't be any seating in the place as they are not allowed to have any. Total bummer but not the fault of Social Ice.

Yum! Strawberry fried ice cream!

Social Ice is a good place to go if you're craving a snow cone, ice cream or sweet snack (think carnival food like fried Oreos and funnel cakes). They have a wide selection, a menu from front to back! It took me a few minutes to decide what to order. I finally went with the fried strawberry ice cream. It was delicious and huge! It had a great taste! It was sweet enough. There was lots of strawberries and syrup. I couldn't even finish the whole thing so I saved it for another day. My son got a coconut and cherry snow cone and he really liked it. The portion was also huge! The customer service was good. I had to wait around 15 minutes for my ice cream. We got there early, just a few minutes after they opened so it didn't bother me. I had to wait for them to start the fryer for the fried ice cream. I enjoy following them on Instagram. I have been craving their Almond Joy snow cone for the last few days. Just like an Almond Joy candy bar, it has coconut and chocolate. I saw it on their IG and I'm now intrigued by it. I also wouldn't mind trying one of their funnel cakes. My son also wants to go back. I highly recommend Social Ice. Since the quantities are pretty large, the prices are pretty reasonable. I spent $10 for mine and my son's snacks. I also left a couple of dollars for a tip. This place does not disappoint. There is something for everyone here.

Came here since I had a major craving for the funnel cakes. I was disappointed because it was super oily. Obviously, it's deep fried, but every time I took a bite I could taste oil. Oil was just seeping out of every bite - I was pretty much drinking it. The store was fairly clean. They had a lot of choices you could choose from. I'd be back for a different flavor ice shaving but not their cakes.

Great concept. I felt like I booked a seat on the Diabetes Train. I love how extensive the menu was. The employees were very patient with my questions and offered samples. After much deliberation, I decided on a mini size of the banana split funnel cake (tasty). My husband ordered a Pineapple Express natural ice. The place is small with limited seating so expect to take it to go. And there's no public bathroom. The music playing while I was in there was awesome. My only complaint is that I didn't have any water to wash it all down.

Rockie road fried ice cream.

Today, my brother and I decided to try this place for the first time and I am glad we did. Great customer service, fantastic desserts. I ordered the rocky road fried ice cream and my brother got the fried oreos with ice cream. Both were fantastic, we will definitely be back. Please guys support this business, they deserve it.

Having a bad day? Heck having a great day go celebrate at Social Ice with one of their signature funnel cakes or natural ice flavors. Small place but great atmosphere. Only thing missing is more seats inside and out. We were lucky to interact with the owner who is super helpful with the vast array of choices.

Good prices. I had the strawberry lovers funnel cake without the strawberry drizzle and it was really delicious can't wait to try their other stuff

I've been looking for a spot to become THE spot
Mowglii J.

SWEET HEAVEN!!!!! I have found "THE SPOT".... my spot in El Paso!!!! They have a great variety of yumminess! My husband and I were on this side of town with our puppy and I was strolling through yelp and found this place I was planning to grab and go because hardly anyone allows our baby in but as I was ordering the gentleman saw my husband with Sophie outside and said "dogs are welcome inside, let me get you a puppuccino" i was speechless and super happy that I could enjoy my treats with my little family without worrying about the hassle of eating in the car or take it home. They have all the right things I loveddd it!!

Cool El Paso twist

Arte Sana Bakery - Strawberry cream cake (?) it was a layered crepe with lovely cream cheese and diced strawberries

Oh gosh. This was the best meal of our five day trip to Las Cruces, NM, Carlsbad, NM and ElPaso,…read moreTX. Sandwich bread is baked in-house along with all of the incredibly fresh pastries we also enjoyed. The cinnamon role had a gorgeous crust that hid a moist inside. Cream cheese frosting was perfection. Chiapas Nutella (neglected to snap a picture) was chocolatey, buttery, and topped with fresh pecans. The cream cake was a strawberry crepe masterpiece...layer upon layer of diced strawberries and an almost-savory cream cheese filling. We were warmly greeted and immediately seduced by the lovely scent of fresh baked pastries. While indoor space is limited with only three tables, covered seating out front provided a nice space. Friendly staff brought our drinks and food out to us. We will return to this lovely place.

I love Arte Sana Bakery. This hidden jewel is not just a bakery; they also sell different breakfast…read moreplates and lunch specials, including a sandwich with pasta salad and green salad (colossal portion and delicious). I have been here several times, and their fresh ingredients and delicious baked goods do not disappoint. I have tried their lunch special, conchas, different baked goods and desserts, coffee, hot tea, and spicy gummies, and today I ordered two small "Rosca de Reyes" for pick up on Kings Day. This small place has a nice music background perfect for working remotely, studying, or simply decompressing from the daily monotony. There is seating inside and outside. Arte Sana offers caring customer service, accepts cash and credit cards, and has a parking area immediately outside its plaza.
