White Mountain is unique, with creative flavors and weekly rotating specials. I really loved the Mexican chocolate, alongside the fruity creamy raspberry and perfectly crunchy chocolate chips. On top of it all, the girls who work there were so sweet. Highly recommend White Mountain Creamery.

I am always craving ice cream at night and I forget that most places (even the ice cream spots that…read moreare usually open until 2am) are either closed or close early on Sundays. We trooped from the North End to Chestnut Hill to check out White Mountain Creamery. We arrived around 11:30pm and super happy they close late, at 12am every day!! The staff were all super nice and helpful. All of their ice cream is homemade and you can definitely taste it when you try their ice cream. We all got small sizes: one with a scoop of cake batter + scoop of oreo, one strawberry, and one orange sherbet. They all were delicious and definitely satisfied our ice cream craving. Their interior aesthetic made me feel like I was stopping in at an ice cream joint in the middle of New Hampshire or Vermont haha I loved it. I also noticed they do mini ice cream cakes... ADORABLE. I'm most definitely coming back to try their mini ice cream cakes & for more ice cream!

Cabot's Ice Cream in Newtonville is exactly the kind of old-school ice cream spot you hope to find…read morewhen you're craving a good sundae. The first thing that stood out was the portion size and value. For around $7.50 you get two scoops of ice cream with whipped cream, a cherry, and a topping of your choice, which already feels generous. If you go for the regular size, you actually get three scoops, which makes it even better for sharing. There are so many flavors available, and we were happy to see that many of the ice creams are eggless, which is great for vegetarians. The texture of the ice cream was incredibly creamy, and the coffee ice cream was especially delicious with a rich, smooth flavor. We also tried the nachos, which were surprisingly really good and made a nice savory snack before dessert. Between the big portions, classic ice cream flavors, and nostalgic dessert-parlor vibe, Cabot's definitely feels like a local hidden gem in the Newtonville area. If you're around Newton or Boston and want a satisfying ice cream dessert, this place is worth checking out.

We…read morecame in with high hopes given the amount of rave reviews, and seeing they had a 5 star rating! Truly, hats off to them because that is extremely hard to do. Now for our visit: * We came here for fro-yo and when my friend ordered a small chocolate fro-yo, they proceeded to let her try the chocolate hard ice cream. Me and her were both confused in the moment * While she was eating her sample of the chocolate hard ice cream, they said there's no fro-yo, only hard ice cream * I then tried the chocolate hard ice cream since there was no fro-yo and it tasted like freezer burned chocolate ice cream, so on a whim I got a kiddie sized cookies & cream with rainbow sprinkles * The cookies & cream tub was nearly hitting the bottom (signifying an empty level) and the flavor of the cookies & cream was also freezer burned and tasteless so I can't help but wonder if these ice cream tubs had been sitting there for a while. Neither the chocolate nor cookies & cream tasted fresh, and the consistency was really off (see photos) * I was given my kiddie cup of cookies & cream and wanted sprinkles, which was a self service for me to add toppings. That part also surprised me since you wonder the cleanliness of this (for example, some people might take their ice cream and put it in upside down to add sprinkles to their cup, or use their hands who knows) or in my case, I tried using the spoon to top off my ice cream and so many sprinkles went everywhere. I felt so bad for the mess it made on the counter!! Most fro-yo places are self service when it comes to toppings, but this felt interesting for us to put our own toppings on hard ice cream * I cleaned up the sprinkles that fell on the counter, only to have a hard time opening the trash since it had dried up ice cream all over it. It was covered with dry ice cream all on the top and sides of the bin. An idea would be to use a foot pedal trash can so it doesn't require people to touch the physical trash bin like I had to * The staff was super nice + maybe this was an off day because it's the winter, and I'm sure the fro-yo really is good. I'd still give their fro-yo a try!

Indeed the interior is not large at all, but still comfortable and with some truly beautiful decorations all around, especially the whole wall in front of where I was sitting, pictures below. I really loved that wallpaper and would totally put that in my house somewhere! But on to the food, it was truly excellent and very authentic. We ordered the stir-fried rice noodles with beef, similar to one of my favorite dishes, Beef Chow Foon, which was hot, fresh, and full of flavor. We also had the wonderful lamb skewers and tried the soupy pork buns with crab meat, a special and comforting dumpling dish. House of Noodles is a noteworthy place and one I'll happily visit again!

Fast casual style where you order on a tablet and the food it brought to your spot on the counter if you're dining in. Seems to be a popular spot for take out even during weekend lunch.

The hot and sour noodles were decent but not as sour as i expected. Still comforting and filling and I'd order it again as the price is quite fair. They have an extensive menu and I'm curious to try more of their food.
