Such a special neighborhood gem. I can't do dairy, but luckily most ice cream spots have non-dairy options. The problem is, at most places, a little ice cream treat is pretty pricey now. They range anywhere from $7-10 for one scoop. Insane. Enter: Uncle Louie G. The single scoop is a nice after meal or small snack size for $5! I think the next size up is only 50 cents or a dollar more and is a bit bigger. So worth it - takes me back to 2019 when prices were reasonable. I especially love the non-dairy mint flavor. I frequent this place quite a bit and recommend it. read more

Is there anything that will hold me back from getting an ice cream on a hot summer day? [No, there is not.] I had a cup of the mint chip ice cream. While a somewhat intense color of green, it was delicious. The ice cream shop is just a window that you go up to and order, but there are a couple of tables on the sidewalk. It's a casual affair. The staff were great, too! read more

Uncle Louie G - Mint Chocolate Chip - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

It was a hot day in Nee York. The regular subway stop that we use was out of service today. The system offered a shuttle bus to our stop, which was great and packed. I decided I needed a chocolate soft serve so stopped at Uncle Louie G. It hit the spot. Limited parking in the streets read more

Uncle Louie G is a local spot that has been in the neighborhood for as long as I can remember! My earliest memories of this place is, I remember one day after elementary school, I was in the third grade and I had gotten a perfect 100% on a math test! My mom took me here to celebrate and the owner at the time I believe Mario (May God rest his soul) gave me an ice cream for free! While the owners have changed. I have to give it to the people in charge. They have done an amazing and fantastic job keeping this place alive and serving as an iconic ice cream shop in the neighborhood! One of my favorite things they did was how they preserved and added to the ice cream statue outside! They painted a bunch of cartoon characters from today and from the past on the benches and installed these cute little lights and confettis to add to the decor. The ice cream and the ices still taste amazing! It tastes just as I did when I was a kid! The staff are incredibly kind and welcoming and I will continue to come to this location for as long as they are here! It's super convenient right outside the L train! I love this place, I feel like it's stood the test of time and has actually improved over the years! Thank you for staying in the neighborhood and keeping the little kid in me alive!! read more

I had low expectations for this place, but it really surprised me. You get a lot of ice cream for very inexpensive. I got two scoops for $5.50. I got the peanut butter cookie dough which I really loved. The Rocky road was good as well. Friendly staff. I like that you can walk up to the window in order. No line. read more

Great service! Have been stopping by here for a while and always fresh and clean inside. Love it!

The service is always trash and my brownie is always burnt. I'm a returning costumer and at this point I'm not returning. Stop burning the brownie please. Also I said no cherry and the lady still put a cherry. Minor detail but still inconvenient. read more

Uncle Louie G's ice cream shop is a perfect hole in the wall (literally ordering through their window service) that offers a nice and welcoming vibe. I'm monogamous to chocolate and had the single scoop of chocolate fudge brownie icecream and this flavor impresses me with its rich, creamy texture and deep chocolate taste. I had a little less brownie bits than I would have preferred but still enjoyed a perfectly sweet and satisfying combination of flavors and textures. The ice cream was pretty smooth and indulgent, almost reminded me of a gummy texture but making it a perfect choice for chocolate lovers. Would recommend this place for any sweet craving. read more

Uncle Louie G - Chocolate Fudge Brownie - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Great ices. Remind me of when I was a child in Brooklyn growing up. Prices were a bit high but nothing out of the ordinary. Recommend !

Ice cream is my favorite dessert and this is absolutely disgusting! Why the good reviews? Sickeningly sweet. Filled with chemical and unnatural ingredients and colorings. Never ever again! read more

This is such a solid hole in the wall! If you're walking around in the area and you want a sweet treat make sure to visit their window! The service is so lovely, they really make you feel like a kid again. The ice cream itself is pretty standard, they have fun flavors which is the best part. It's nothing high end or gourmet but I don't really think that's necessary for a spot like this. It does the trick and is a tasty sweet treat! read more

This place has some delicious ice cream & icee! I was in Brooklyn for vacation recently & stopped on the way to my hotel as this was directly across the the L line. There were a few people in line in front of me, but the staff moved very quickly. I ordered a coconut ice & it was amazing! Bonus is they accept credit cards! Very nice treat on a humid NY day! read more

Italian ICESSSSS Mmmm! They have flavors on flavors at there tiny little walk up window serving the best iceys in BK. I like to mix pineapple and lemon and lime served in a big cup and a plastic spoon. Just a good ass summer desert. read more

Craving some good quality ice cream or icee?? Look no more ! This place has a wide variety of flavors in both ice creams and icees. They have almost every flavor you are looking for. They have great sizes from small to large which is perfect if you want to find a little cup for a little one . It has lots of seating with beautiful lights above and very close to the subway to Manhattan or Brooklyn. The lady who helped up with the icee was super nice and even gave us some recommendations. Definitely recommend . There is no inside seating so in the colder months you may want to plan to eat that in your apartment. read more

When It comes to ice cream in the neighborhood, Louie G's is THE best spot! Love the flavors and the ice cream is great, but more than anything it's the kindness! Jane is always kind & gracious, and it makes visiting Louie G's a must-stop in the neighborhood! read more

I'm giving them 5 stars. $3 per cup of a delicious ice cream is hardly to find these day. They have a variety of flavors to choose. Also, a guy who works at a counter is always nice. P.S. Don't let some fools stop you from support a good local business. read more

Uncle Louie G - (Small) Piña Colada - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Sorry people... came to this place looking for a great ice cream.... oops, not the place!!! If you are looking for variety, this is the place... they have many many flavors (even though they do not have hazelnut). I tried 3 of them and to tell you the truth, none of them were good enough to make me get those extra calories!!! Chocolate, missing balance and taste... coffee, too strong on one side and lame on the texture and creaminess.... then the nice lady told me to try the cappuccino... again a foul.... after that, I apologized and just left!!! Sorry... read more

Great little family owned water ice and ice cream shop. Many delicious flavors, friendly staff, generous portions, and cheap!

Sadly since Michael's passing this place has lost it's sense of neighborhood. It no longer provides the large size of love that Mike had nor the sense of what a large cup of ice cream is. read more

These guys are so great! A wonderful neighborhood spot with a great selection of flavors. The scooper is always really friendly. Love them! Ps. The cotton candy flavor is where it's at! read more

Following a fantasy league summit, Kyle N., John A., Samuel B., and I decided to pass on the fried ice cream donut at Win Son and pursue ice cream elsewhere. There wasn't a Jeni's and Ample Hills in sight, but we did some Yelping and found Uncle Louie G, which looked like a solid option. The place is a no-frills stand in Bushwick with a funny "giant ice cream cone" 5-foot statue in front. You can get either Italian ice or actual ice cream, and there are about 20 flavors each. I was simple and went for chocolate. Sam B., a professional reporter for New Food Economy, had to act like a reporter and ask endless detailed questions about the differences between the flavors, holding up the line. This aside, the ice cream was really great, and a bargain at $3 small, $5 large. I should have gotten another cause I was still really hungry afterwards. On a summer day, it's also a nice spot to just chill and discuss life and things like public transportation. Many rent-a-vespas were out in force, and we discussed whether, when all inputs and outputs are calculated, these are actually helping problems like congestion (local) and climate change (global) or not. It's a debate that'll be ongoing, especially with the inevitable scooter arrival in NYC soon. We also SMH'ed at league member Jordan S., who says ice cream is not all that even though he has a freezer stacked with Jeni's?!?!? I'm deducting one star for not accepting cards or bitcoin in 2019. read more

This place literally makes the most bussinest ice cream in all of Williamsburg! They have over 200 homemade flavors, I could not believe! Definitely give massive props to Louie and his niece. read more

After a beautiful day lounging on Pompano Beach and enjoying the views from the pier I wanted a snack. Yelp to the rescue with Uncle Louie G's just over the bridge. It's located in a cute plaza with a pizza place, a burger place, and a cafe, so I'll have to remember this plaza is here for other beach trips. They had a few customer already enjoying their treats, but no line. They have a very large selection of both ice cream and Italian ice (probably at least 20 flavored of each) and the man behind the counter was happy to give samples. My boyfriend being the more avid dessert lover went with ice cream. Brooklyn cheesecake I think was the name, in a sugar cone. I spotted huge chunks of cheesecake in it, so I stole a piece, who doesn't want chunks of cheesecake? I went with something more refreshing, a small lemon Italian ice. It is served in a cup that looks kind of small, but Italian ice tends to have a richness to it, and this one definitely did, had I not loved it so much I may have had trouble finishing it. The lemon was the perfect combination of sweet and sour and the ice had a creamy quality to it. I can't wait to go back and try more flavors. I typically think of Italian ice as fruity because my favorite flavor is the lemon, but they offer more dessert like flavors such as cannoli and cake batter as well. The service was friendly and the price was reasonable. Located on the north side of Atlantic this is the perfect place to stop for a post beach cool treat. read more

Uncle Louie G has so many flavors, try them all. The benches are where everyone hangs out at night and chats, the girls who work here are nice. The price is cheap and the line moves so fast. Hot summer night, lemon ice, perfection, this is the real Brooklyn how it used to be. read more

I hate writing bad reviews but I'm just warning you. Their Icy's are SWEET!!!!! I had ice cream from this brand before but a different location and I have no complaints. I come here, and the lady seemed like she didn't want to serve my daughter and I. She never made eye contact with me, it seemed like she was trying to get rid of us. I asked her a question, she rolled her eyes and walked away. And to top it off she gave me the wrong flavor. This is another on the don't come back list. read more

Great service great product love the ices and the coffee blend owner had funny jokes great place to go when u need cheering up!!!!

I am not gonna mess the streak of perfect ratings. This is a very small establishment, but the layout gets the max amount of efficiency. They have over 76 types of flavor. The girl I was with loved her waffle cone with cookies and cream ice cream. I was full from early dinner. The service was friendly and informative. And the ice cream was delicious. It's right along the beach. Prefect for a dessert after a long beach day. read more

This is my favorite ice cream place not only is the ice cream delicious. But there is a very dedicated older woman worker who knows how 2 tackled a line long as a train down 2 1 person. I think she is amazing. She has been working there 4 over 8 years and i c her how ahe listens 2 every customer of what they want. I c customers take her for granted but i feel she has the hardest job in the world. She should be appreciated and respected. I know i cant do what she does. I come 2 this place at least once a week and I noticed this place is always clean. read more

I want this place to be better. Rainbow Ice reminded me of pizza shop ices, and its better than Ralph's. However....the business has room for improvement. The place looks like the franchisee has neglected it for some time. They only take cash, which was a surprise, the woman working there was scooping the ices with one hand and had her phone in the other one. Didn't seem too interested in working and she messed up the order. Also, the number listed on google for them is a former employee....will probably go back because there's no where else for ices. read more

We got the peanut butter ice cream, mango Italian ice, and frozen yogurt and it was delicious!!! I don't recommend the matcha at all tho.

Year after year this place opens up for the spring - fall season . I love it , the kids love it . What's not to love about some great flavored Icys on a hot summer day . Mike the owner is always nice and greats everyone with a smile . read more

Haven't had Uncle Louie G in over 10 years. My son was bugging me for ice cream all day. Finally stopped by the old neighborhood and saw Uncle Louie G open. Plenty of parking in the neighborhood now with the pandemic going. Lady at Uncle Louie G was kind enough to allow my son to sample a few flavors before selecting one of their chocolate ice creams. I think it was $3 for a cup. It wasn't too bad. read more

Ice cream is great. Italian ice and frozen yogurt there as well. Twice yesterday I went there, first for a kiddy cup of 1/2 pistachio ice cream, and 1/2 butter pecan. Absolutely smooth and delicious! Later on in the evening I had the same, only medium size. My wife had some ( she doesn't eat ice cream often), and she agreed that it's noteworthy. The owner, and her family, WORK there. It's first class. And spotless! read more
