    50/50 Gunther's guava, freeze and vanilla ice cream
    Julieanne H.

    I love this little place where I can get Gunther's ice cream and Gunther's freezes and then they have homemade desserts like flan and sweet cream rice and they make fresh fruit concoctions. I don't even know how they maintain such a huge menu. There's so many different options. I love coming here sometimes I come for the Bionicos, which is like a fruit parfait and other times I come for a mangonada or icecream or paletas.

    Have been here a few times now when looking for a sweet treat and specifically when I'm craving something from an elotero. This dessert shop has a great variety of options, they have Gunther's ice cream and freezes, shaved ice, loaded shaved ice/freezes, and Mexican snacks like tostilocos, tostielotes, and mangoneadas. They also have juices, popsicles, and more. The portions are generous and they make your order quick. Recently I went and got the volcano. It was super tasty and exactly what I was craving. The inside is small but there's booth seating and they have some seating outside. The inside is pretty clean, tables can be sticky, and the parking lot is pretty small but if you go in the afternoon you should be able to find parking. It's a nice spot to eat at when you have either something simple or a loaded dessert this summer.

    The mangonada was a hit, albeit a bit pricey! Would recommend getting it on Monday when it's a special--definitely shareable medium size & above! My boyfriend loved it! The amount of options was a bit overwhelming truthfully, so I just got the day's special which was the waffle & ice cream. It was too sweet for me but the waffle was too sweet for me on top of all the other sweet items that it came with. Staff were patient while they were waiting for me to decide, so that was nice of them!

    Came here to get a sweet treat just now and walked out feeling aggravated. The kid behind the counter wasn't even going to help me. I had to ask, "where do I order?" Fine, no big deal. I ask for a scoop of birthday cake AND another scoop of strawberry cheesecake in a single waffle cone. He then asks, "do you want it in a cup?" I say, " No, a waffle cone please." Rings me up and it's $12. That's expensive for what I ordered, but in this economy, I just assume everything is doubling in price LOL. Needless to say, I don't question it. Then he hands me a waffle cone with just one scoop as he gets ready to prepare the next one. I stop and say, "it's just one cone." At this point, I'm frustrated and just asked to be refunded. No apology. Nothing.

    Stopped by with two friends for some quick dessert. The store was pretty empty and parking was easy with the lot outside. The interior of the store has a huge menu - I would make sure you know what you want in advance as it can definitely be overwhelming! The inside is also clean but a bit run down - you can tell that this is a very well-loved spot. I got a watermelon paleta, which was very delicious and was made with real fruit. The workers were prompt and made the ordering experience super quick and easy. Yum!

    Baby $5.xx ice cream served by the rude female.

    This place was doing big things 4 years ago.. Me and my wife went today and the worker who was a young lady was rude dry and seemed disconnected from her job..they use to make a really good bionico today was terrible sour unripe fruit and the consistency was water nothing to it..tasted like she just poured milk over sour fruit put a scoop of ice cream no nuts no nothing..and the scoop of ice cream was a sad excuse for $5...Baskin Robbins is better..this is what happens when owners get to use to the money and don't keep up with the quality... restaurants are so crappy seems like everyone is watering everything down..never again..

    Elote and mangonada! Got lucky and stopped in on a Saturday before a rush. Parking spots are limited but there is street parking available. The menu can be overwhelming if you don't know what you want. Opted for mangonada slush and it was all that I hoped it would be. The elote is good too if you're looking for some. Prices are fair and staff is friendly.

    Hard not to find something you like in this place. They even have a beer fridge?! Lately I've been craving Gunther's ice cream more than usual so I've been here a couples times this month already oops sorry not sorry. My order is usually a boring go to like cookies n' cream or choccie chip cookie dough in a cup. A few weeks ago I even went so far as to order a waffle cone! Usually I don't because I don't like messy foods, but I was living a little that day what can I say? If I wanted a Mexican treat like a mangonada or paleta they have these too. They have a giant menu of Mexican goodies, shakes, sundaes, and aguas frescas. It's impressive. I'm always pleased with the quality of my desserts and the cool efficiency with which the folks bang out order after order. It's nearly always out the door when you come here in the Sacramento Sauna season. You may have to squash into a line situation that may trigger claustrophobia, but mine's always been in check here. They'll give you a receipt with your order number on it, and call it out when it's ready. You can hear them from outside too since the foot traffic in and out is usually constant. Sometimes we eat outside at the picnic tables if there's room, and sometimes we go for a romantic stroll. I love this neighborhood and Sweets & Sugars Ice Cream. Parking: very hard to find, small lot, we usually walk here so... I would try side streets in the neighborhoods adjacent. 4th Ave/Wayne Hultgren Lightrail station or 62 bus are other options to get here. Don't try to go in the small parking lot if it's crowded. Bathroom Report: smol, does the job of bathroom, be careful not to open the door into a bunch of people in line Vegan Corner: Oof not really much choice here, a cup of fruit perhaps, or fruit juice by itself

    Sundae and 50/50
    Catt M.

    Loved it here! What a cute, hidden gem that serves delicious ice cream treats without the long lines and crowded dining spaces. They serve Gunther's ice cream and we were able to enjoy a hot fudge sundae and a 50/50 on a hot day! Highly recommend if you are out with your kids near the zoo, fairytale town, or William Lands Park.

    Fresada, fresas con crema, and churro cheesecake. They put chocolate, caramel, lechera, and fresh strawberries on the cheesecake!
    Erick D.

    Unfortunately, we don't get eloteros or ice cream trucks in our neighborhoods in Midtown. It's definitely something I miss from SoCal. Luckily Sweets & Sugar Ice Cream is nearby to fill that niche. They sell everything you can find in your typical paletería like La Michoacana. The menu is enormous with a ton of options to fulfill any cravings. This time we got a fresada, fresas con crema, and a churro cheesecake. They were all great, but I highly recommend the postres/desserts because they put chocolate, caramel, lechera/condensed milk, and fresh strawberries. We'll definitely be back to try the ice cream, paletas, and licuados. Be aware the parking is a shared lot with other businesses so be prepared to park on the street if full.

    Crazy apple
    Catherine M.

    I moved from SoCal to Davis a few months ago and have been craving a chamoy apple so much. People were right when they told me Davis is full of nothing, so I had to find a place in Sacramento. I decided to get the crazy apple at Sweets & Sugars right after my last afternoon class and it was worth the 30min traffic-filled drive. It hit the spot and whenever I need a little taste of home I'd definitely come back here. Only complaint is the tiny parking lot.

The moment you walk in, the retro 1950s diner ambience immediately transports you back to classic Americana dessert culture. They've apparently been serving Sacramento for over 37 years! - Hot Fudge Sundae -- made with Gunther's vanilla & chocolate ice cream, topped with whipped cream, pralines, and a candied cherry; beautifully presented with warm hot fudge drizzled all over - Lemon Raspberry Cake -- moist sponge cake layered with lemon, raspberry, and whipped cream; balanced sweetness with buttercream-coated sides The red booth seating and vintage Americana decor really complete the nostalgic vibe. Service was friendly and quick, and the overall ambience was cozy, retro, and diner-themed.

" He was making small talk with her and he asked her if we were her family. She asked him which one he thought was her "PARENT." He replied that he thought I was her grandmother. I'm 54 years old and have a 30-year-old daughter and my niece is 25. I don't even know how that would be possible. I was right next to them sitting at a table with my brother so of course I heard, and I got up and I said what's up with this grandma stuff, and he said that he answered her question and told her that he thought I was her grandmother. Honestly, I felt completely insulted like you're not supposed to say things like that to your customers or even about your customers. I felt myself getting ready to go completely off on him, so I walked away and went to sit back down. He had the audacity to tell my niece some people can't handle the truth. It's so baffling to me that a manager would say something like that. I know employees sometimes say inappropriate things, but he should know better!! This was supposed to be a nice family outing and he ruined my night. Luckily I have confidence in myself and his comment didn't give me a complex or make me like I look old. It was also disappointing because I went in there specifically to get an eclair, which is normally a decent size. For some reason, it was the half of the size and the same price.

But my friend convinced me to give it a try at The Parlor Ice Cream ad Puffs and WOW O WOW!! I ended up getting an unglazed donut with coffee ice cream made and it was incredible. They have a great selection of Gunther's ice cream so you really can't go wrong with a flavor. The warm donut paired perfectly with the cold, creamy ice cream, and the coffee flavor worked so well with it all together. Definitely something I'll save for an occasional treat, but it's also something I have already been thinking about often now. The staff was also super sweet and welcoming. I'll definitely be back!

If I remember, they had lines out the door during that era. Now, it's still a quaint little shop and serves mainly ice cream and a few goodies. We went here after eating next door at Saigon Oi. Inside is really small and has maybe one area you can sit in. They do have a decent selection of ice cream and it looks good. Like most other ice cream places, you can choose your flavors and toppings and eat it in a cup or cone. Customer service was great. The person serving us was really friendly and was great with my niece and nephew. The owner rung us up and was really friendly as well. I did not eat the ice cream, but the service and the way they looked makes me think it is decent ice cream. Great place overall and I may come back to try this if I go to Me's kitchen again.

The staff were polite and patient and the place didn't seem that crowded for a Thursday around dinner time. I suppose with Ginger Elizabeth's and Rick's Dessert Diner all on the same strip, there is a lot of competition for dessert places here. We were happy to try something new. Everything was fairly clean and there was plenty of bar seating as well as a few tables. I believe there were also tables outside.

Parking is a little bit hard to find, since you're mostly looking for street parking. Upon entering, the FroYo place had a nice interior that reminded me of a modern casual design with some contemporary elements that created a playful atmosphere. There were some high chair seatings to the right, and some lounge chairs to the left Unfortunately, by the time I came in, they were not allowing us to sample any of the 6 flavors which was a bummer (New York cheesecake, cappuccino, cable car chocolate, vanilla, pomegranate raspberry or euro tart). The flavors are pretty limited, so if you're looking for a place with a wider assortment of flavors, I might recommend somewhere else. However, the toppings bar was nicely stocked with a bunch of different things to choose from, which was one of its saving graces. Once you're done, you weigh your FroYo at the counter. I would've given a solid 4 stars to this place; however, while we were eating the FroYo, the man who was working decided to go into the back of his shop and listen to his shows rather loudly. I could hear the sounds from the shows over the music they were playing, so it made the ambiance a little awkward since I wasn't able to vibe to the music. Thus, creating a rather rambunctious atmosphere. Overall, I do think this place has some room for improvements, especially with their flavor profiles.
