    We just moved to the area and we've been looking for our new ice cream spots. Turbo came highly suggested and it was alright. Service was really good. The young staff is nice and quick. The free stickers made my kid happy and even my wife. Prices are a bit inflated IMO, but this may just be the area. Parking was easy on a Saturday afternoon. I like the outdoor seating and shade. It's a nice place to stop with a ton of families and kids hanging out. I also love the store shirt. I found the chocolate soft serve a bit dull though. The vanilla is much better. Sprinkles were really good and the mixed ice cream and candy options are nice. We will try some other places but we will also be back.

    Iceburg - Grape Slush with Dole Pineapple Whip
    Kris G.

    So happy I found this little slice of delicious coned heaven! GF, DF and so many options for a sweet treat. I love that they have the Pineapple that's basically like a Dole Whip (it's GF, DF & vegan to boot). The Non Dairy Vanilla is a classic and goes well with all the other flavors. I am obsessed with the Iceberg. Couldn't decide between a Slushie or Ice Cream and this does it all!!! It's soft serve on top of a delicious iced slush. Many options to mix and match the flavors. Our current favorite Icebergs are - DF Vanilla in Grape / Pineapple in Peach / Swirled Vanilla & Pineapple in Blue Raspberry. Wish they had a GF cone option but don't hate it since the slush only requires a cup! Soooo very much love that it's affordable & appreciate that they are open til 10 and have outside tables so you don't feel bad swinging in last minute and taking a treat to go!

    It's always a chill spot to get dessert. It is very awesome and above the tip of the iceberg. The staff are really nice and accommodating for customers that have gluten intolerance, sensitivities, celiac, et cetera and handle food allergies excellent.

    We love this ice cream. They don't have any indoor seating but ample outdoors with easy parking and a bathroom. The menu is vast and has something for everyone. They accommodated my husband's nut allergy well which we always appreciate. Highly recommend!

    Ok, I ordered a twist in a waffle cup. Now can I finish it?

    Who doesn't love a soft-serve ice cream cone? Turbo's got that and more. I had a choco-vanilla twist in a waffle cup, and could've had soft serve mango or a mix-in mash, milkshake, and more. I enjoyed my cup under the roof of their outdoor seating, but I saw most customers take their choices away. My ice cream was delish, and the waffle cup was crispy and a satisfying ending. I'll be back.

    Don't trust their hours!!!! Closed at 9:24 on a Thursday night. Drove out of our way after dinner for soft serve. Awful.

    Love this ice cream spot! Be aware they have overflow parking on a side street. It's staffed by mostly high school aged kids but they're fast and friendly. Lots of picnic tables to choose from under a big cover. The hurricone is my favorite - get the turbo cone crunch in it!

    Definitely our favorite soft serve in the area. I stick with old faithful, the chocolate and vanilla twist with rainbow sprinkles. Brings me back to my childhood! The good old days! My boyfriend likes to mix it up. Below is vanilla soft serve with strawberry shortcake topping. This place is always hopping, very-low key and service is quick. Outdoor seating only, but there is a public restroom. Love that they are always playing 80's jams.

    Turbo Cone takes me right back to my childhood. It's an old-fashioned, outdoor ice cream shop where you order and pick up at the window. They serve classic flavors like chocolate and vanilla twist, along with Dole Whip--my go-tos, always topped with rainbow sprinkles. The shop's simple, cute vibe adds to its charm, making it a perfect spot for a sweet, nostalgic treat.

    Overpriced, icey non-creamy ice cream, attitude workers, tip option on the payment kiosk for a ice cream come? Go to DQ instead folks. More options and better experience IMO

    Dairy free vanilla with cherry

    Honestly not impressed. Maybe we ordered the wrong thing. Our cones melted so so fast and it wasn't that hot out. They were very messy and got everywhere. For the price, I expected to be at least a little bit wowed, but the flavors were very mild and the hard shell was waxy. If you just want a soft serve cone, I'd go somewhere less expensive. The seating area grass was overgrown. I will say the girl taking orders was very kind though.

    Fun spot for soft serve ice cream in West Ashley! We had a waffle cone and a waffle bowl. Lots of toppings and great prices too. Large patio area to sit and eat too!

    It's hard to find chocolate dipped soft serve ice cream anywhere in Charleston and they have 3 flavors!

    My husband, his parents, and I went to Kaminsky's at around 8:30ish on a weeknight for a sweet…read moretreat. It's a super small establishment with a few tables and some bar seating. Luckily, we were able to be seated immediately but it was very close quarters with surrounding tables. The menu is vast with different dessert options. If you want to know what cakes are available, you should check out the display stand right when you enter. Since we were there 2.5 hours before closing, there didn't seem to be a lot of cake options available, but my husband and I decided to share a slice of the s'mores cake with a scoop of vanilla bean ice cream to make it à la mode. The s'mores cake was a chocolate cake with mini marshmallows, chocolate fudge, graham crackers, and more marshmallows. The cake was good and had everything I could ever want in it, but it was a little dry. I think this also had to do with it being the end of the night. The ice cream complemented the flavor well. It would have been better with a second scoop of ice cream though. Service was great! It took about 10 minutes from when we ordered to get our dessert. I would probably come back here again, but not so late at night so there would be fresher cake with more options available.

    We gave Kaminsky's Dessert Cafe a second try, but unfortunately they couldn't redeem themselves. On…read moreboth visits, service was lacking. We waited about 5 to 10 minutes to be acknowledged while two employees stood nearby. The two layer chocolate caramel pecan cake, which our waitress initially could not find, was dry and tasted stale. I would not order it again. The Tollhouse pie was a bit better, but the presentation and the whipped cream were the standouts, and the whipped cream wasn't even homemade! That's the best thing I could say about our experience. The food, pricing, service, and ambiance all fell below average. When you are located downtown with so many great dessert options around, you really need to step up your game. We will not be returning.
