    Are you looking for really good ice cream in Lake Katrine (not far from Kingston) on the cheap with a dose of love? Then you don't have to look for long. After getting some exterior paint at Home Depot, we made a mad dash to come here with at least 5 minutes to spare. Amongst Kingston's strip mall after strip mall and more strip malls not far off, is Jolly Cow- a blast from the past standing out alone with an almost life-size cow, checkered black+white flooring, and their colorful overhead menu. Even if you had time, you can spend a whole 10 minutes at least discussing which flavor is the best, but because time was ticking, we each knew we wanted chocolate soft serve on a waffle cone- mine with chocolate sprinkles. This isn't the place where you'll find your Jolly C. ice cream covered in ice crystals or tasting like freezer burn. The chocolate in the soft serve is subtle, but it's fresh. The waffle was another hit with a super fresh taste and held its slight crisp. Order wisely. I ordered a Large, hubs a Medium- they were both humongous- a Small is perfectly fine. So if you're one of those that want something more than the old standard sized ice cream cone and you want to level up the vibe, Jolly C. is for you. In addition to the staff being super nice, the price can't be beat!

    Twist soft serve small

    Omg my small twist soft serve was soooo yummy and looked so good! Service was nice. It was my first time and lucky not busy at the time so it took me a Minute to look at the menu. They have hard and soft serve ice cream. They have many flavors but you can't beat the twist. Will be back whenever I crave soft serve esp in the summer. I passed by on a warm day and there was a long line!! Def to be expected this summer!

    I will go here every time I'm in the area!! The workers are friendly and the ice cream is delicious! They have unique soft served ice cream flavors. I really recommend the yellow cake. It was sooo good! Can't wait to be back. Ps: there's plenty of parking and sitting in the premises. We loved sitting on the bench and enjoying our ice cream there.

    Kiddie creamsicle cone. Delicious!

    Just driving and saw this place. We made a u-turn and enjoyed some delicious soft serve ice cream. Definitely recommend anyone passing by to stop in for an Americana throwback.

Then the owner Stephanie came over and said we will not turn on the air. And was rude! Then said to cone into the kitchen. She opened the door and said to her husband this is the lady who is leaving because it's to hot! So I said so I'm a customer who comes here and are you telling me not to come back? She then saluted the flag and said bye. Wow how rude how unprofessional. And talk about not caring about your customers. And what about your staff that's running around like they're crazy and they're sweating. She doesn't have to worry about me ever coming there again. There are many more restaurants in the area. In fact when we left there and went somewhere else as soon as we walked in, there was air-conditioning on. And when I commented to the manager, she said you have to keep your customer and your staff comfortable. She's 100% right. I guess at Renato's the customers don't matter shame on them.

I like the large Mexican/Asian fusion menu. There is something on it for everybody. I started with the Malay curry wontons. Dumplings in a red curry sauce. They were delicious! They were tender, the generous filling was delicious, and they had just a little bit of a gentle heat to them. I could feel my forehead sweat just a little bit. I liked them. For my main course, , I had the Asian rice bowl with teriyaki beef. I chose the seasoned rice, and it came topped with cabbage, carrot, cucumber, bean sprouts, broccoli, bokchoy, cilantro, and egg. I had mine with Teriyaki Sauce. The bowl was huge, and it was delicious. The meat was tender and had a good flavor, the veggies, and the rice were done just right, and I like the addition of the egg. Everything played very well together. It was rich, but not overly so. There was a lot of food, and I took some of the dumplings and the rice bowl home for later. I had a soda, but they also offer Boba tea, beer, even soju, among other things.. The price was very reasonable, especially for the fact that I got two meals out of it. I will be back. Thank you.

It's a huge space with a lot of room for regular and hibachi tables, with modern decor. Service is very friendly and consistent which is not always the case with these kinds of places. They had an issue with one of the vents while we were here, however they quickly fixed it. Just needed to leave the back door open for a bit. Drinks were on the sugary side which is typical; my mai thai was good however I couldn't do 2. Soup and salad were good. Chef was one of the better hibachi chefs I've gotten. Wish they flipped shrimp instead of veggies for an appetizer, but hey, recession. More importantly than the presentation and show (which was good), they did a really good job with the food. Steak was perfectly cool if a bit over seasoned. Scallops were seared better than I've had at a lot of fancier restaurants. Massive portions too when the veggies, noodles and rice were factored in too. Of course my food got switched at home, and I got a fuckton of chicken instead of my steak. I mourned this, however will survive to return again.
