WOW! So so good! My friend and I each got one of the waffle styles with ice cream and loved it! I got the s'mores bubble with chocolate ice cream and it was delicious! I feel like often specialty places like this don't end up having the highest quality ice cream but even the ice cream was delicious! The waffle was warm too! I was shocked by how fast our waffles were made too! Such a fun vibe with music and decorations inside. Will definitely be back! read more

Sooooooooo yummy! I love the unique choices and flavor combinations. We have been a few times now, to a few locations and they do not disappoint! Great service, freshly made to order and lots of dessert to choose from. The main downside are tricky parking and the expensive prices, but the portions are large and can be shared! read more

Randomly stumbled on this ice cream shop and it was actually really good! You can come in and customize any type of ice cream you want... And it was so flavorful. I definitely will be making this a ice cream place that I go to all the time. The service was great. I sat in the inside and a my ice cream and it was a good vibe.

The Dolly Llama Uptown Dallas - Waffles Near Me - Dallas, Texas

Came here on a 1st and LAST date LOL . First let me say , The date & this establishment has nothing to do with each other at all. It was a Friday evening so Parking was a little difficult but we managed to find something after driving around a little waiting for others to come out . This location had a nice crowd / decent size line for those waiting to order and those sitting around enjoying their ice cream and the ambiance. There were a few tables inside and outside of this location, all of which were occupied, but we end up finding an empty table a little bit down in front of a closed pizza parlor. The line moves quickly which was plus for me because I'm not a huge fan of tight and crowded spaces. We ordered something small and simple to share , because neither of us knew what to get and we didn't want to hold up the line. We ordered a small butter pecan ice cream with pecans and cinnamon toast crunch cereal sprinkled on top . After assembling our ice cream, I asked that they put a cherry on top for pictures taking purposes lol, but I learned quickly, that the cherry had to be ordered in the beginning lol , it was my first time there and as much as I wanted to have a debate about a single cherry , I respected their policy. I offered to pay for the cherry but was told I had to pay at the register, the line was never ending so I gave up on the cherry. For me, the experience was mediocre! And again, this has nothing to do with the actual date that I was on but exactly about the quality of the ice cream that we shared and the environment that we were in. The ice cream got milky/ watery really fast, which in our case paired well with the cereal we had on top I guess. I don't remember the price exactly, but I do remember thinking that for the amount we paid we definitely could have stopped by a Walmart or another grocery store and got the same ingredients and more for much less including my one little cherry on top lol . It wasn't a bad experience at all , but I live in Ellis County now so to me the experience did not match the time it took to get there, the hassle of finding parking and the lack of space to be able to sit and enjoy it . If in the area again, and parking is plentiful, and I want some ice cream, I'd likely stop by and try something different but personally I wouldn't go out my way again for it . read more

Ordered door dash bc I was in a pinch. Did I pay $23 for a shake and a waffle to be delivered?! ... yes, and it was worth it, color me surprised!

Great place for ice cream! They have many different flavors and toppings! The staff are very friendly and they let you try the flavors. I had the SUGAR N' SPICE which has their Signature Bubble Waffle topped with Horchata ice cream, speculoos cookies, cinnamon toast crunch and caramel sauce. I omitted the cinnamon today crunch, though. The person I was with had the DOLLY'S DREAM which has their Signature OG Liege Waffle topped with Ultimate Cookie Monster ice cream, fresh strawberries, brownies and nutella sauce. (I didn't get pictures of this one, sorry ‍‍) It's a small place so be ready to be packed in the line, but definitely worth it! read more

I recently stopped by the Dolly Llama for a late night ice cream treat, and it was just ok! Service was extremely slow. We had to wait 10-15 minutes just to order, and the place was not very busy to begin with. My waffle with ice cream and one topping was $11 something, which seemed pretty steep for what it was. All the containers are Blue Bell ice cream. You can see this on the side of the containers they are scooping out of. It is much cheaper to go to the store and buy it, especially as you aren't getting "Dolly Llama" specific ice cream. I probably wouldn't return just because the product and experience aren't justified by the price, but it was on my list, so I'm glad I tried it out! read more

We were craving dessert after our trip to blue sushi so we did a 6 minute walk to this place. The place was popping and the staff was doing their best to get to everybody rapidly. We ordered the dolly llama and party animal in bubble waffle form. Both were good but felt the ice cream to waffle ratio was slightly misaligned. It could've benefited from some more ice cream. The brownie in the dolly llama was also somewhat overpowering. The waffle though: Solid. Very fluffy and airy. read more

What a treat in uptown Dallas - we were craving something sweet after dinner and came to Dolly Llama and got the sugar rush we didn't know we needed. The biggest pro - the service. I believe the owner was there and he was wonderful. He was liberal with the samples to all patrons and seemed to genuinely care about the experience of everyone there. But even more than that, the way he treated his staff is what makes the Dolly Llama stand out - it was busy when we had went, but amidst it all he not only supported his staff, but provided feedback kindly and effectively to make sure they can get customers in and out. If service is important to you when picking a place, I absolutely recommend you visit. The dessert itself was delicious - I think our eyes were bigger than our stomach.. one is enough for two people! I do recommend you it it quickly, as as the ice cream melts, it drips through the bottom. Seating is a bit tight, so you may need to sit outside. Definitely recommend checking this spot out if you are in the area! read more

I took a day trip with a friend to Dallas from New Orleans and added dolly llama to one of my must stops on the itinerary. Dolly llama did not disappoint . Excellent service. The employee went above and beyond to make sure we had a great first time experience. I didn't get the name of the 2 people that helped me. One was a girl that seemed new and then there was the guy that was training her that is pictured relaxing in front of the store. Upon entering, we were greeted with friendly smiles and offered samples. It was our first time here so the 2 employees had excellent recommendations and answered any questions we had. My friend got an ice cream sandwich filled with ibe ice cream mixed with brownie pieces (high recommend by the employee) and she said it was a great mixture. I got the Dolly gone nuts waffle bubble. I do plan on again next time I'm in the area. read more

Ice cream is DELICIOUS!! And large portions make it even better. Parking wasn't bad either, considering it's Uptown.

Was excited to try this place as it's one of the only ice cream spots open late. Drove to it at 10:30pm on a Saturday night, it was closed but should have been open til midnight. The phone number is disconnected. read more

I was so excited when I found out that Dolly Llama was coming to Dallas. I believe they started in California. I appreciate the variety and the uniqueness that sets it apart from other ice cream shops. The bubble waffle cones are delicious and I could honestly eat them alone. I'm not big on ice cream so I usually get the milkshakes. I customize mine. The last one I got was a caramel milkshake...so yummy! The customer service is good too. I docked one star because the prices are a little outrageous. read more

Although the ice cream was good and we drove from downtown to uptown to try it out, it disappointed me that they did not let their customers use their restrooms. They actually sent me to other establishment and I was like really, we spent our $ and supported your business and you are sending me elsewhere to use the restroom? What a joke. read more

A great spot for dessert! Tucked nicely in Uptown you can stop by the Dolly Llama to satisfy your sweet tooth! I ordered the banana pudding ice cream with strawberries and whip cream in a waffle cone and let me tell you it did not disappoint! You're able to build your waffle cone a la carte or you can choose from their signature choices! One note to mention it is a bit small inside with seating limited to about 3 small tables, there is seating outside which is nice especially if the weather is nice! I also saw thar they close pretty late which is a plus for those late night cravings! read more

The Dolly Llama Uptown Dallas - Banana pudding with strawberries and whip cream in a waffle cone! - Waffles Near Me - Dallas, Texas

Standard flavors. Will be sticking to my usual bubble waffle ice cream spot. What I got: I built my own bubble waffle with cookies & cream ice cream and strawberries. I mean cookies and cream isn't all that exotic so it, again; standard. Wish the bubble waffle was a little crispier around the edges. I also tried their horchata and ube ice cream as well. Horchata ice cream was more of a plain cinnamon ice cream and ube was really powdery. Environment: Very dirty & sticky tables. The floors also had quite a bit of trash. Service: These guys rather be literally anywhere else than here. Unfortunately, this is a last resort type of spot for me. read more

Llove this pllace! This llama-themed ice cream place is the best! They specialize in frozen treats served atop waffles! NOM! The toppings and flavors are so great- you're not going to get steered wrong with this place. It's a cute ice cream shop in uptown. It's located right off the trolly stop, so you know it's in a great location. My favorite thing about this place is the spoons that they serve the ice cream up on- they're llama spoons! Swoon! The staff was super nice, and let us have samples before we chose our flavors. I got salted caramel on a hot waffle. The cold and hot, the soft and crispy- it was a duality of flavors and senses. It was transcendent. They have some merch for sale too, if you're into llamas! read more

BUSS W/VEGAN OPTIONS ‼‼ I found out about this place through my boyfriend (Los Angeles native) that absolutely loves it. We decided to try it out tonight for the first time at their new Dallas location! It's a small spot and there was a huge line of people inside. It smelled so great inside. I ordered the kids waffle w/vegan birthday cake ice cream + whipped cream (not vegan) & my boyfriend ordered the original Dolly Llama flavor(?). Ever since I became lactose intolerant I haven't been able to go to any ice cream spots because there's never options for me. This place changed the game - I was so impressed. I was impressed that I could eat there! The only thing I would suggest- PLEASE turn on the AC because it was hot asl in there read more

I know there's Dolly llama locations in LA but this was my very 1st visit and of all places in Dallas! It was a cold night in Dallas but stomach still calls for ice cream! I got the Sugar N Spice which has a bubble waffle topped with horchata ice cream, speculoos cookies, cinnamon toast crunch and caramel sauce. It was delicious and definitely hit the spot for a sweet tooth! I am only knocking off a star because the place is way too small and it gets super crowded. They only have 2 tables by the door inside, and I think another 2 tables outside. Definitely need more room to sit and enjoy our desserts. I also saw a big dog water bowl so they are pet friendly. The LA locations are not super near me and especially in LA traffic, I have a feeling I'll visit here again sooner than the LA locations. read more

The Dolly Llama takes ice cream above to atmospheric levels! If you love, even like, ice cream, do your heart & stomach a favor and go to the Dolly Llama. Your heart & stomach won't regret it (maybe your kidneys will)! They are truly masters of their craft in the art of ice cream design. Only geniuses could think of combining smooth ice cream, a waffle, Biscoff cookies and the all the fixings to create a ration of scrumptious delight! I recommend everyone and their Mama (yes Mama) to come and try what will one day be known as some of the best ice cream to try in the DFW! My girlfriend and I had it after dinner and after much anticipation from it's wonderful presentation, we inhaled it (below are some of my GF's thoughts). Will definitely come again! "My boyfriend and I shared the horchata icecream waffle dessert and it was fantastic! On top of a hot liege waffle was a huge scoop of cinnamon ice cream with Biscoff cookies on top. We also added Reese's cups and Oreo crumbs because why not right? It was so good that we cleaned the plate in under 5 minutes I kid you not. I would 10/10 order that again!" read more

The Dolly Llama is one of the best games in town! I tried their bubble waffle "Llama Gone Nuts" that's a twist on peanut butter and banana sandwiches. It was a big scoop of vanilla ice cream topped with bananas, almonds, whip cream, and peanut butter drizzle within their freshly made and warm bubble waffle. It was delicious and it's definitely a lot of dessert for the price. Staff was friendly and helpful navigating the menu since it was my first time here. The place itself was clean and modern. Completely worth going and I plan to try their other bubble waffle creations next time I'm around! read more

The Dolly Llama Uptown Dallas - Llama Gone Nuts (Bubble Waffle) - Waffles Near Me - Dallas, Texas

The place was pretty busy when we got there around 8pm on a Friday. There's 2 tables inside but most of the seating was outside. They had about 3 workers but because most of the waffles were made to order, service was a bit slower (or at least that's what I hope/ assume) Waited about 10- 15 minutes in line. Finally got to order and did a BYO plus the Gone Nuts, both on a regular waffle. Getting our order was another 10-15? minutes. Again they were truly busy so I'm not made about the wait Either I messed up and should've gotten the bubble waffle or the regular waffle just wasn't that good. It was too dense and kind of rubbery? It was made fresh so that couldn't have been the problem. I also didn't like the use ice cream very much. Maybe I was expecting too much since I've had better elsewhere but this one was very artificial in taste. The Gone Nuts was the best thing, sans the waffle. Basically I just liked their vanilla ice cream with PB drizzle and vanilla (which I could do at home) Vanilla ice cream wasn't bluebell-esque either so maybe it's made in house. TLDR: This place isn't bad BUT not totally worth it for me. It'll help satisfy your sweet tooth and after dinner dessert craving though. Maybe give it a try and opt for the bubble waffle. Hopefully you like it a bit more than me ‍ read more
