    Strawberry Chamomile over Stranahan's Whiskey Brittle
    Andrew Z.

    Can't speak for Sweet Action as a whole but I had an awesome experience at this particular location! Connor was not only attentive and polite but also really pleasant which makes me want to keep coming back. Flavors - not your standard vanilla and chocolate type of ice cream shop but there are constantly new and creative flavors! You can't go wrong with almost of the choices but Salted butterscotch on top of Stranahan's whiskey brittle was a great combo

    Who does not want some 'sweet action' in their lives?! This is where 'sweet dreams are made of this' (Eurythmics) Lol After a nice walk with my boys at Wash Park and dinner has digested, we decided to grab some ice cream and stumbled across it on Yelp! Cute little place tucked between shops. We all had 2 scoops of different variations of ice cream on our cake cones. The scoops are generous for the price. Boy, do I miss the days when I could by ice cream like this for $1.25!!! Gosh, how times have changed and I'm able to live it and see it! Lol Getting carried away with my sweet thoughts of reminiscing! Lol Definitely recommend coming here when you're in the mood or craving for something sweet, cold, and yummy. Thanks for serving some delicious ice cream. Service was terrific for our timing!

    Flavors; my favorite was the Chocolate Almond Butter

    That's some sweet action alright, mm mm MM. I spotted this cute little ice cream shop while waiting on lunch and knew I had to get some afterwards. I don't know what they put in there but please try the Chocolate Almond Butter flavor. If you are not allergic to nuts, I'm telling you it's a must. TOO GOOD! So buttery and so creamy, it's filled with almond chunks and chocolate chips. It truly is perfection. Management, if you're reading this I'm needing a Sweet Action location in Houston ASAP.

    Oh Sweet Action, why did you do this to me? The temptation for your cream, sugar and frozen goodness was easier to avoid with your only location on Broadway. Now that you've moved into my neighborhood, I can say goodbye to my thighs. It's hard to walk by and not stick my head in to see which of your many variety of flavors you will have this week. All of your choices remain amazing, and picking just one for some, can make them numb. The salted butterscotch with its browned butter, caramelized sugar and salt always brings a smile to my face.

    Milk and cookies from sweet action. Life changing!

    Milk and cookies. Life changing! Waffle cone is crisp and sweet. Vibes on Gaylord are great.

    Salted Butterscotch !!

    Yummy and delicious best ice cream right around the block from your house. Check it out so you don't miss out.

    my gorgeous tan hand, the edge of my beautiful lavender sweater, a spoon, and some delicious ice cream.

    This ice cream was very, very, delicious. It was the perfect snack for my bike ride. I ordered caramelized mango: However, in my opinion it did not taste like mango that much. It tasted like pumpkins to me? I don't know. It was very delicious though. They had an abundance of flavors, and the building itself seemed clean.

    Our scoops!

    One of the best places to stop for ice cream -- the cones are really fresh and they have fun flavors. Would recommend stopping by!

    I don't enjoy writing poor reviews but these prices are highway robbery. The price and the portion size do not add up.

Mark was one of the stars members during the event and he was great! He was attentive and very helpful with any questions and made sure everyone was getting enough apps during cocktail hour. I also noticed how kind and helpful all of the staff was when I was trying to get something from the kitchen in the house before the event started. For appetizers we had the arancini balls and pear crostinis and both were very flavorful and delicious. We had a watermelon/arugula salad to start off dinner and it was so fresh and perfect. The dinner rolls are dangerous bc it would be too easy to eat multiple of them. My vegetarian entree was a generous size and very filling and full of flavor. I really exited the eggplant and the sauce that was on it.

They offer a huge menu full of unique items you don't typically see from a caterer. They easily accommodated our guests with special food allergies. Two things really stood out to me, putting Hippie Chicks into the Outstanding category. Their food was not only delicious (special shout-out to curry chicken and Philly cheesesteak sliders, and fried artichokes with garlic aioli), but it was also impeccably presented. Just gorgeous. Also, the service they provided during the event was fantastic: Cindy set up, refreshed food, cleaned up plates, and packaged up leftovers, working quietly and quickly in the background. Will contract with them again.... no question.

I am from Denver but live in CA currently and am planning from afar. Sent an incredibly detailed inquiry with day-of event timeline by hour, menu ideas, location (just a few blocks from their prep kitchen) and a bit about the event. Received two separate responses from he and his wife, Holly, seeking details already provided in my initial inquiry like guest count, location, time. Sent several emails back and forth clarifying capabilities, menu ideas, rentals etc. and finally had to set up a call in October (initiated by me after many proposal mistakes) to align. There was constant confusion regarding the style of the event and rentals - TBH, the many proposal revisions due to their mistakes maybe should have been the hint this might not be the best fit. But we went ahead! Terrence was late to the call on October 15 but let me know ahead of time and I genuinely didn't have an issue with it. After aligning, I paid $100 to have a menu tasting on Monday, December 22 when my husband and I would be visiting Denver from CA. So, this is a tasting that has been on the calendar for at least a month. When we arrived at our tasting (after confirming via email the week before and day of) 15 minutes before (6:45p) the scheduled time of 7pm, Terence is irate. Mistakenly, the event in my calendar was in PT (since we live in CA) instead of MT. He says that he refuses to serve us because we have "disrespected him and wasted his time and he has a 4-month-old at home." He continues to say that we are disorganized and lack care and that in addition to not offering a tasting, he will not put in the effort to cook for our wedding after how we've treated him. We are SUPER apologetic - this is something we've spent money on, confirmed via email and have been looking forward to. When asked why he didn't call to check on our arrival time, he said he "doesn't have my phone number. And you confirmed with Holly so that should have been enough." Because I filled out an entire inquiry on their website and spoke with him personally to schedule this tasting, it's BUCK WILD to say that you don't have my number and think sending an email is problem solving enough. We would have literally hopped in the car and been there in 15 minutes had we been given the courtesy of a phone call. All of this to say, we made a mistake, were very apologetic and were treated super rudely and given no tasting despite paying. 0/10 for TBD Foods.

    I ordered the family Thanksgiving meal online from Tony's because it included everything I love…read moreexcept the pies. They do have those available but my daughter likes to bake for us. So, their pricing was in line with other high quality meals and it serves 10-12, which is perfect for 8 people on Thanksgiving ;) I ordered the whole roasted turkey (they have several types of turkey available) and the side dish bundle which included mashed potatoes, sage stuffing, praline sweet potatoes, green beans almandine (with tons of yummy bacon), gluten free gravy, cranberry relish, and brioche rolls. The non-contact, drive through pick up the day before Thanksgiving was staffed by very helpful, friendly people wearing masks. They put my order on my back seat and I was through the line in less than 10 minutes. When I got home, I immediately started unpacking everything so I could divide it up into "to go" orders for my family Zoom on Thanksgiving. I thought the turkey was frozen and started to panic but when I called them, they said it was not really frozen but very chilled and the shrink wrap made it seem frozen. They had me submerge it in hot water for about an hour. The directions say to heat it in the oven for about an hour, then tent it to rest, then slice it. Since I didn't have time for that, after it warmed up, we were able to slice off enough for my daughter's family so we could give her her share when she dropped off the pies. I split up the meal 4 ways and with her pies, we delivered everything just in time for our 1:00 pm Zoom. We all had different favorites for the food but we all agreed that everything, including the turkey (after we each heated up our own part) was delicious. My favorite was the praline sweet potatoes. They were creamy and had a great praline flavor and came with candied pecans to sprinkle over the top. I highly recommend this complete meal from Tony's and it would have been so easy if we were having people over. The fact that I had to divide and package it up made it a little more difficult but still much easier than cooking. They are offering more meals for the holidays that include turkey or prime rib, beef tenderloin or Applewood smoked ham. I'm betting they are all delicious! Thank you Tony's for making my pandemic Thanksgiving so much easier! You are my new "go to" for family meals.
