    Pistachio and Ube Brownie scoops
    Simon W.

    Pistachio was outstanding! This isn't your artificially colored hideous neon green variety. Pistachios with texture are layered throughout and one scoop here is very generous. My second favorite flavor here has to be the Ube Brownie. The subtle Ube flavor along with chunks of brownie was really good. They specialize in unique Asian flavors highlighting Pandan, Lychee, Black Sesame among others. This was really a goldmine find, truly was not expecting a gem like Sweet Parlor after having dinner nearby. The first time I first went there was no signage out front and it was hard to find. By my second visit there was a sign and Waze did a better job of providing directions. The staff is super friendly, great with samples, and very generous with their scoops. Sweet Parlor is really a trek for me but if I am ever in the area again I will return.

    Last time I was here for yelp event and first time coming back since then and did not disappoint. They have so many new flavors and I had matcha brownie for first time and wow what a blend fusion of flavors. I took home my pints of choice fave UBE brownie which is a fan fave and new for me guava cheesecake. Service amazing they let me try a ton of flavors that weren't there last time i was in. Ambiance very insta posting worthy.

    Very excited to try this place based on reviews. A regular ice cream shop tucked away in Hillsborough . There were onky couple of people manning the show for a weekend., so the tasting and processing was a bit slow . Tried the Special waffle cone tiramisu ice cream and a small chocolate cup. They took time to make a fresh waffle cone so I was super excited to try it. The waffle cone was too eggy and lacked the crispy texture that I expected . The ice cream itself was good though a tad bit sweet for my liking. The waffle cone ice cream was way too pricey for what it offered and didn't meet my expectation. Parking was a breeze as its inside a huge strip mall. They have pints to go and ice cream cakes too. Will I go back ? .. not sure !, . As the place didn't wow me . But , I may still recommend this place to people as they had good ice cream which is the crux of this place .

    Ube Brownie & You're So Lucky
    Dan M.

    This was part of a large strip mall with seating available inside and outside. They offered a number of ice cream choices that also included specialty drinks. There were lots of unique homemade ice cream choices as well as traditional ones for the less adventurous. I had a medium cup ($7.50?) of ube brownie and you're so lucky. The ube scoop was much larger than the you're so lucky. The ube brownie was ube infused ice cream layered with brownie pieces. This was very good. The ice cream as a whole was very fulfilling and a little heavy. There were plenty of brownie pieces present and they were small enough where not a lot of chewing had to be done. The ube flavor was very tasty. The you're so lucky was a cheerios infused ice cream layered with lucky charms marshmallows. This was disappointing. It really did not have much flavor, just plain. I also tried the triple threat chocolate. It contained brownie pieces and cake I believe. It was not too bad, very heavy, but not overly chocolatey. Will I go back? Yes.

    I've discovered my favorite ice cream flavor of all time at Sweet Parlor thanks to one of their rotating flavors- the Perfect Match-a. It's the perfect matcha based ice cream, not too sweet and not too bitter, with Oreos mixed in! I didn't even know I needed this until I saw them post it on Instagram. The sample spoon was so good when I tried it in person, that I got it in my bubble waffle cone and bought a pint of it, and it was the first time in my life that I finished a pint of ice cream (usually I scoop out the toppings and the base gets freezer burn from sitting in the freezer for too long, then I throw it out). I hope it comes back as part of the permanent line-up of flavors!

    Hula Hoop with Boba

    The flavors here are so unique and fun, both in the drinks and the ice creams! You can also try out the ice cream flavors if you're unsure since there's so many options! As an ice cream enthusiast, the POG and brown sugar earl gray flavors are among my favorites for sure. I decided to try out their drinks today. I got the Hula Hoop drink with boba but there are plenty of build-your-own options as well. Highly recommend. They also have fizzy drinks which are good too. I love the aesthetic, and they make your treats right in front of you.

    Bubble Waffle Sundaes
    Lindsey R.

    Woah! So many good flavors and options to choose from. You can sample all of the ice cream before making your selection. I highly recommend the bubble waffle and make sure to get their whipped cream On whatever you pick. Wait staff and owner are all so nice. Located right in the corner of the shopping center and there's parking right across the street.

    They sell pints!

    Great variety of flavors including Asian inspired flavors. I've enjoyed every single flavor that I've tried. They also drop a new flavor every Friday! It is a small place but there are a good amount of seating inside. Everyone there is super friendly. You're also allowed to sample flavors before ordering. I've never tried their bubble waffles or drinks but I've only heard positive reviews about them. They also sell pints to go!

    Great selection of flavors.Very friendly service. Tried tiramisu and pandan flavors and both tasted amazing.

    I saw this post circulating on Instagram and decided to give it a try. Or small little spot located in the strip mall. They are in the process of getting their main time so it's located right next to Elwaldi Grill . What a great addition to the town they have some amazing and unique flavors so be a little open minded to try something. A lot of different flavors mix with a Asian flare. And along with some flavors the kiddies will like ( Cookie Monster) . We had a chance to speak with the owner Tim great guy. We really wish him the best. Oh, and we will definitely be back to try some of those yummy additional flavors. We did not get to try this time around. The Ube brownie was delicious with the UBE whipped cream. We also tried the Sunday morning which was full of coffee flavor im always a sucker for a great coffee ice cream .

    Saw the post on insta and was so intrigued with the ube brownies which are both my favorite. We ordered the specialty sundae of u-bae. Saw some pint of ice creams but they didnt have the ube brownies pint and there was only like 3 of them with different flavors in the freezer. They had a cute sign with grass backdrop and a wall of $1 bills. The line could have bern more organized.

    It was really good. The cereal bowl is massive!! And... Thomas finished it. And incredible feat from the kid. Anyway the place was nice on the inside. Sadly I didn't get to see bathrooms though.

    Brian T.

    First time coming here and I was absolutely blown away!! Their flavors of ice cream are so creative and beautifully done. I'd try their lychee flavors (strawberry/peach) because you can get chunks of lychee in it. It's sooooooo good!!! And the owner is very nice too!

    This is the milkshake I got and it was very good

What we ordered: - Strawberry Matcha Latte - Pandan Macaron We enjoyed both of our items. The service was interesting. I can't say that it's quite a negative or a positive. Since it was our first time there, we took some time to look at the menu and came with questions when we ordered. I saw that they have a matcha latte on the menu but nowhere did I see any specials or what syrups could be added to the matcha. Because of this, I asked the person checking us out if they had any syrups and if they could be added to the drinks. He listed off the syrups (vanilla, hazelnut, etc) and also included a "strawberry puree" in the list. So I considered that and said I would order it with the strawberry puree. The woman who was making the drinks beside him then said something along the lines of "so you're ordering a strawberry matcha latte". Like I was suppose to know that and order that way. I responded "yeah, I guess so but is that on the menu because I don't see it". Then she confirmed it's not on the menu. I didn't know if it would cost more or if it wasn't suppose to be included as a syrup or if she was training him. It was just an odd interaction rubbed me the wrong way though and left an uncomfortable feeling for me. We were going to enjoy our stuff there but after that we decided to take it to go. I'm not sure if I will return as it is not a local spot for us and we made a special visit out there to try it. My drink was good and the macaron was also yummy. I would recommend it regardless because their stuff is good and my interaction could just be a one off.

Pretty homey feel when you walk into the store. There was a cute selfie wall when you walk to the register. The menu is pretty extensive. I debated getting a drink but was so full from lunch that I got a box of the ube crinkle instead. My husband did order an ube shake for him and my son, so the three of us shared. First I noticed that people don't come here for one drink- people leave with 4-5! Everything looked so good coming out that I couldn't wait to try my husband's shake. Staff was friendly and place was clean! They did have those floor fans going on which I assume was to try the wet footprints from the melting snow outside, so I think that made the restaurant louder the it is. The ube shake was delicious! It was a little hard to drink at first because it was made pretty icy. I'd prefer mine to be a little smoother, but not a huge thing since it'll just melt. My 5 year old LOVED the "ice cream". He drank a good amount which was shocking. I had the ube crinkle when I got home and it was SO good. It was the perfect softness and it wasn't overly powered on top. I ended up eating a second one, which I normally would never do but I couldn't help myself! It wasn't overly sweet or coated with powder and the softness just made it that much better. Would I come back? I would if I happen to be in the area, I will definitely stop by to try the rest of their cakes/drinks!

Also love that it seemed like a small family owned operation I opted for the calamansi drink which was perfect for a 90 degree spring day and a pandan coconut pudding to bring home. I wish the pudding was a bit less sweet (I tend to dislike overly sweet things) but overall, this is the most extensive filipino dessert place I've found in the tri- state area and I will be back if I'm around somerville again
