    The Neo Banana Split
    Jean J.

    I think I just found my new favorite sweet treat spot! I've been CRAVING for a banana split, and when I saw the Neo banana split I had to get it! We ordered two Oreo shakes (one with an espresso shot and whipped cream on top), Neo banana split, and two scoops of ice cream in a waffle cone! Besides the deliciousness, inside is super cool and has a lot of cool spots to take some photo ops. The service was awesome too, the employee helped us with any questions we had and was super patient while we looked thru the menu. So excited to come back again!

    Up In Scoops is an Ice Cream Shop and FREE sort of 70s, 80s,90s, small museum. You go here and buy something like a banana split, milk shake, ice cream, gelato, or something else, and then you check out all the cool stuff to look at. Some of the tables also have games to play with. We had a spumoni and a chocolate gelato. They were A-OK! and then we had fun checking out the atmosphere. Parking is easy and close. You must try this place if you are in the area.

    After eating dinner at Sparrow & Wolf on a Friday evening, my husband and I decided to stop by Up In Scoops for a sweet treat! This ice cream shop is located on West Sahara Avenue, towards the 95 N/S. This ice cream shop is a tribute to the pop culture of the 1970s, 1980s, and 1990s! I was in awe at the dessert shop! After walking in, I was fully immersed in the vintage posters, arcade games, and all of the memorabilia. Before looking at all of the decorations, I did decide to order first. Their menu has a wide range of ice cream flavors, milkshakes, signature spaghetti sundaes, and so much more! I looked on their menu on Yelp before coming, so I already knew what I was getting, the large peanut buttercup milkshake, with a chocolate base and whipped cream! There were a few other families ahead of us, which gave me plenty of time to look at all of the cool vintage items in Up in Scoops. Some of their arcade games included Donkey Kong and Galaga! On the wall towards the bathrooms, you could see their display of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles! There is a large section dedicated to Star Wars! If you're a big fan of Star Wars, you need to come to Up in Scoops just to look at all of their memorabilia! They had a lot of posters on the wall, that you could even purchase! I saw one of Studio Ghibli themed that had My Neighbor Totoro and Howl's Moving Castle (one of my favorites!). After about 15 minutes, the milkshake was ready! It was perfect! Most of the peanut buttercup was blended in smoothly with the milkshake! The service was great! This is a great hidden gem, and if you're in the area, craving some ice cream, you should stop by Up in Scoops!

    The best old fashion ice cream experience ever! The huge banana split is awesome! The nostalgic museum collection of items from the 70's and 80's on display is fantastic and worth checking out!

    80s /90s theme ice cream shop Decorated from wall to wall with toys, action figures, magazines, movies, musicians, celebrities, posters and cut outs of some of the most popular, colt classic things that the film, music, entertainment and toy genre had to offer from the aforementioned decades. It was a great time to be alive.... The ice cream was good with zero complaints. The customer service was friendly. There were quite a few people ahead of us so the serve time was a bit slow. But we didn't mind because we took the opportunity to exchange a couple of dollars for a handful of quarters to play the Pac-Man and donkey Kong arcade game located at the front of the ice cream shop.

    The Good: The place is filled with retro pop memorabilia. Cute concept with all sorts of things to whisk you back in time. Super friendly service. The Bad: No samples, so expect a taste surprise of very mediocre ice cream which reminded me of budget off brand supermarket ice cream. We had 3 flavors, all low quality, unremarkable and not worth the caloric intake. The Ugly: Upcharge to use credit card

    Did shopping and seen this spot, at first I was just coming in tot take a look but the kids decided they wanted ice cream. Upon entering the whole spot is a blast from the past, real 90s vibe. I loved the style, they had a variety of items from milkshakes, gelato, ice cream, sodas, water, nachos, and shaved ice. My oldest ordered a cinnamon French toast shake which he gave a 7/10, my youngest ordered one scoop of cookies and cream which okay. There is a charge for using your debit or credit card which I discrete care for. One scoop of ice cream was almost $4 and shakes started at $6. Nice place to Reena's but I probably would've buy here again. Only one person was working ... most likely the owner and there were other people there so, there was a little bit of a wait.

    Super cool retro ice cream shop. They have tons of 80s pop paraphernalia so you can reminisce and take pics with Han Solo in carbonite. For an Oreo sundae and it was so ample, I thought I would die. It better be for the price. Only a couple of cons for this place- I didn't like being forced to tip since trying to not tip voids the transaction and the employee had to process it again. This happened to other customers so it definitely is shady. Also, the place kinda smells like garbage. If it weren't for those two things, I'd love the place.

    So happy to find this place , it reminds me of my child hood. They had so many options for treats . I also loved the games at the tables.

    LOVE this place! It gives me so much great nostalgia, I'm sad I didn't come visit sooner! Great place to take the kids as they have some board games and machines to play. Plenty of areas to take pics. The guy at the counter was awesome and kind. My son loved his ice cream, although a simple chocolate ice cream lover, he devoured it. Would definitely come back and recommend to those visiting.

The shop has a variety of…read moreflavors, including some weekly blends - this week they had three: ube & pistachio, cookies and cream & Thai tea, matcha & strawberry. They have three different styles which include ah boong (served in taiyaki), upside down (taiyaki in a cup), or just a cup. The taiyaki also has a variety of fillings to choose from. And variety toppings can be added without extra charge. Of note, this place is cashless! I just wanted a cup so I did not order any additional taiyaki. I got ube soft serve with an addition of biscoff crumble. The staff prepares your order really quickly within a couple minutes, even during busy times. You can take your order to go and leave, but they also have some seating in the shop if you want to stick around to enjoy your cold treat. It's styled similar to high school bleachers where the seats are made of wood. Plenty of lighting to take pictures, along with a decorative wall if you're into that! Fairly kid friendly place too, where they can sit and enjoy their soft serve; I would not recommend having them run freely as there's not much room especially during busy hours.

Other than that, flavors were great, tasted how they were supposed to, and taiyaki was the perfect texture. The cold brew was good, it's served black but was a little light on flavor for me, if light coffee is your thing then this is PERFECT for you. Oh, and an awesome added bonus is the toppings bar at the end. Items Enjoyed: Thai Tea Taiyaki with custard filling Strawberry Matcha Swirl w/Nutella filling taiyaki cup w/Oreo Crumb Strawberry with Oreo crumb Strawberry filled with Nutella with Oreo crumb and fruity pebbles taiyaki.

On our visit, there were several sketchy people in the lot and some going to the adjoining liquor store. While most of the customers were nice family looking people, a few of them were on the sketchier side too. If this were the only issue, we would go back, but there were other issues as well. However, for the positives, parking was limited, but sufficient. Business was good and there was both a line and numerous people waiting for their food. The order area is well lit at night. Most of all, the servers are very friendly, helpful, and patient. Unfortunately, the rest of the downside are the most important things. The serving cup size is good, but the ratio of custard to hot fudge/toppings was way off. Most places do not give enough fudge/chocolate sauce/toppings, but here the ratio was half and half. This MIGHT have been ok if the fudge and toppings were layered as at other places that do not skimp on toppings, but here the fudge/toppings were the top half of the cup and the custard at the bottom. This made it difficult to get the custard and to get a proper ratio of custard to topping. Kind of like rationing your meat and rice or potatoes so you have some for each bite--you could not do this with the custard and toppings here. The custard quality seemed like it might be ok, but it was hard to tell due to the ratio and serving structure. Overall, Nielson's custard has the more standard concretes with mix ins and a larger portion size than Luv-it. Freddy's frozen custard, although not as good as Nielson's was still also better than Luv-it. If Luv-it could either layer its toppings and you have concrete custard consistency, then it could be rated higher. As is, you are better off driving the distance to Nielson's or just going to Freddys. Still, if you must go to Luv-it, just be aware of your surroundings and you will still get an ok dessert.

The matcha parfait was good with a nice creamy texture and flavoring. However, I have one complaint. When coming with two others where we are lactose sensitive and with one having an allergy to oats, they wanted to try the matcha latte's and we asked if they can make with almond milk . The female worker said they don't have almond milk and only do oat or whole milk which was odd, and I asked again to confirm and was told no. They ended up having to do whole milk despite being lactose intolerant and was bothered. I look through here from comments by the owner saying that they CAN substitute with almond milk, which is confusing and a little annoying that we were told they don't substitute almond milk and was never told a reason why. That's one complaint for those who might be allergic to oat milk or are lactose sensitive: There is barely any option to accommodate and for that I give three stars. I probably would not come back again nor recommend because of the lack of accommodation for those who cannot have oat/almond milk. However despite that it is good to try once.
