This was super yummy. I could taste the coffee. The guy serving us was also friendly. It was quite busy and he seemed to be the only one working, but he managed his time so well. He was so efficient with making sure groups weren't waiting too long. I did wish that there was more spots to sit to enjoy the ice cream though. There were a couple seats against the wall, but no stand alone tables.
This was a pretty solid stop for rolled ice cream. I had the strawberry and appreciated how they gave me the extra roll even though it was bigger than the size I ordered. The flavor was just alright. My biggest complaint would be the value. I paid $8 when I think the small size should've been no more than $5. Service wasn't the quickest, especially because we were the only ones in the shop. The shop was clean and kept nice on the inside.
Had I just been out driving looking for a place with ice cream I would have NEVER found this place. The signage just says "Wonders" and if you walk by it smells like a different type of wonder. It was definitely a surprise to walk in and see an actual ice cream shop. The cashier offered suggestions and so I went with his favorite the #6 peanut butter cup. There wasn't anything special to it besides the roller ice cream. My friend ordered the berry kind. That flavor was much better.
We loved this place! Parking was a little confusing but I took a chance parking in a lot by another restaurant. I took my 7yo and my 9yo. I loved that they had photos on the menu board. It was super easy to order and the kids got to watch them make the ice cream/ roll it. Some reviews say its only ice cream. That is not true. This ice cream is velvety smooth. My kids said multiple times that it was so much better. My daughter said she thought she liked chocolate ice cream but all the chocolate ice cream prior to wonders was NOT chocolate ice cream. She walked away a convert!
Thai rolled ice cream is something amazing to witness! You won't find buckets of frozen ice cream on display. Instead, the liquid is poured over a frozen pan and almost instantly frozen. Using a scraper, the frozen liquid is rolled up and placed in a bowl. The novelty of this method is one thing... but the flavor, taro, was incredible and unique. The nutty, vanilla, floral taste is perfect frozen! It's so hard to pay 7-8 dollars for a bowl of ice cream. It's overpriced, but something cool to do on occasion.
Ordered a Vietnamese coffee ice cream twice on Uber Eats, got a Vietnamese iced coffee drink twice instead. I thought maybe they messed up the order in the first one, which is fine, stuff happens no biggie. I ordered the same item again, same result. Either the image and description of the item is incorrect as it said it would have ice cream along with a brownie and condensed milk, or they actually did mess up my order twice. Either way if I wanted a $9.25 drink, I would've ordered one but now I'm down an 1 hour and 20 mins of my time and still no coffee ice cream. I got two iced coffees tho!
Neat! I was really impressed with my first visit here, and my first taste of rolled ice cream. I got one of the sundaes on their menu, the "Brownie Smashed". Chocolatey! Next time I come, I'll try a fruity one. I came on a muggy Sunday evening, arriving at 8:45 and I didn't get my ice cream until 9:35. That's because it is very, very popular, and also because it takes time to create what they serve. Fortunately, it's fascinating to watch them prepare it. The crew works very hard, and clearly take a lot of pride in what they do. I'll probably come back here regularly, but it was a long wait in their stuffy, small, uncomfortable space while I waited for my awesome ice cream, so they'd have to improve on that before I give them highest marks.
Wonders was one of the first Thai Rolled Ice Cream shop in the Twin Cities. Located on busy University Ave and in the heart of Little Mekong, this little shop brings you exceptional ice cream. Many of the flavors available are not typical American flavors but to my southeast Asian palate, it was home. You can find flavors such as Taro, green tea, and other exotic fruits, you just have to choose. The shop was small, but super cute and enough seating for a small group. I ordered the Green Tea and chose my own topping with berries and syrup. As I moved down the line to the pick up area, the staff make your ice cream right in front of you, so you get to see from start to finish how the ice cream is rolled. It was an amazing experience to see it done in front of me. Upon the first bite, the ice cream was creamy and smooth and not hard and crumbly. Wonders kept me wanting more and I'll definitely come back for more!
This place now is a lot better than what it was when it first opened last summer. Great menu selection and the added wonder "dog" is a good ice cream combo; gotta love those long John donuts! The place is usually crowded since it's so tiny inside and the line can get ridiculously long so go early in the day and avoid late afternoons and evenings. No parking beside street parking around the corner or meter parking on University avenue. One thing I don't like about Wonders is the loud explicit music they got going on. Feels like i'm at the club but only getting ice cream!

Pretty cool rolled ice spot in the twin cities! They have a lot of choices. The staff don't really talk much. read more
We had their ice cream at the food truck they had at the Minnesota Thai festival. After our lunch as we were walking around, this seemed like the perfect treat. And we were not disappointed. The staff was super friendly and they take credit cards. We ordered an Oreo, a strawberry one and the Thai coffee. I didn't think I would be ordering rolled ice cream from a food truck but this was delicious. The ice-cream was creamy and the flavors were great. You could taste the coffee and the strawberry and it was creamy. It hit the spot on a hot day and a perfect treat for the family. It does take a few minutes to get your order as they have to do this manually for each order and depending on how long the line is. It's not like they can add more stations to get them done quicker. But it's worth the wait. I would be sure to check them out whenever I see the truck. read more

Such a cute little store and a great find after dinner. We ordered taro strawberry latte and it was very yummy. It's a little creamy, the taro doesn't have too much sweetness so the sweetness of strawberry purée balanced it very well. Will come back and try their rolled ice cream read more

This is how they roll Crazy flavors in a bowl Hours line takes its toll Are we there yet? Are we there yet? Geeesh, I could have driven to La Crosse in the time it took waiting in line until I finished my ice cream. I have waited a shorter amount of time for new roller coaster rides than the time I spent here. Wonders opened yesterday and has gotten quite a bit of press, so the demand was high. Guessing it probably takes five minutes to prepare each customer's order and they only have three rolling stations. If they stay this popular, I hope they are able to expand and/or somehow streamline the process because I would never wait that long again. It was OK, not great. The ice cream rolls kind of flake apart as you eat them. Not really the typical taste or texture of ice cream. I got the peanut butter, and I didn't think it had a very strong peanut butter flavor. Actually, I preferred the taste once the concoction melted down a bit and was a little more goopy. My advice would be to wait awhile and let things die down a bit. Alright, but not worth the time invested today. Little over two hours from arriving until the ice cream was finished. read more
Waited 2 hours outside and over 1 hour once I got inside. The owner takes the orders on the iPad, then the 3 guys make your order. It's very clear the hired teenagers don't have enough experience making quality rolls. I get that it's super hard to do and they've been doing it all day long, but I was disappointed when I saw my order. Presentation is super important. I really wanted to promote this new place to my friends but I didn't even want to share my photo because it wasn't good. Flavor lacked. I love all their options like the taro. However when I got my order after waiting 3+ hours, they messed it up. Also, it's just 4 tiny rolls, some whip cream and a little sprinkle of your toppings. Seriously I wanted strawberries and Nutella as the toppings and got 3 strawberries and Hershey syrup which wasn't what I wanted. I ate it anyway but it really lacked flavor. I also saw teen girls that wanted to Snapchat/instagram their ice cream but the presentation was not good. They'll have to practice for sure. I will say some good things that will make me give it one more chance: The owner is super nice. He apologized for having us wait so long but it was the second day of them being open, so we expected a long wait but definitely not this long for a few pieces of ice cream and whip cream.... He gave the customers water bottles while waiting and made sure to check on us once in a while when the line was out the door. Overall, it makes sense why I had a bad experience because these teenager boys that are making the ice cream don't really know what they're doing. They all do it differently, it's very inconsistent and you can see that when you compare your ice cream with a friend. Sometimes you get wayyy less and they get more... My advice for the new owners: work on training how to stay consistent. Also it's a big up so seriously fill it up with ice cream and toppings. Presentation is a huge part of why it's worth the wait so work on that. The food doesn't taste good if it doesn't look good. These are just things businesses learn early on but I'm confident this business will improve after reading these reviews. read more
I was never a believer in rolled ice cream until I had Wonders Ice Cream. I've had it before at other locations and it was nothing unique so I tend to stay away from it. I had the taro ice cream and it blew my mind. How could rolled ice cream taste so good? It's so simple yet entertaining to watch! The flavors were on point and unique. I love the uniqueness of this shop. The branding is amazing as well as the look/feel. I decided to split a medium with a friend, not sure if I would've been able to finish my own. I look forward to stopping here again during my next visit to Minne-SNOW-ta. read more

I find it appealing when what I eat takes time and effort... I love the various options they have. I never had Thai ice cream or rolled so there I was. We enjoyed the service too, please tip them because those young people are working hard making those delicious ice cream. read more
Soo much better than Izzys and Milkjam. Finally found a place that serves more than just traditional ice cream with a tiny dollop of whipped cream. First, I agree that the owner could do a much better job with the appearance of the shop. It looks suspicious when you first see it from the outside and it's warm inside. I disagree with the other reviews that this factor should drop the ratings so low. There are soo many options it is amazing. They include unique flavors (more than those overrrated traditional ice cream shops), however they take if 2 steps further by providing toppings such as fruit, cereal, cookies, pocky sticks, etc., plus they do taco shells if you like. The flavors are amazing. Why eat pre-made old scooped ice cream when you can have freshly made, flavor- bursting melt in your mouth ice cream? I had the honey dew which comes with delicious rolled honey dew flavored ice cream with a chunk of mango fruit, lychee, and strawberry on the side and fruity pebbles sprinkled on top. It had a very nice smooth finish. Also tried the passion fruit, and you can taste the fruit meat within the ice cream, this one's a little sweeter but just as good. Finally everyone was soo nice and the art of rolled ice cream is amazing. Perfect to bring the kiddos to watch it made! I will definitely return to try other flavors. read more

Another Thai Rolled Ice Cream spot in St Paul and the second one I've tried (Sota Hot and Cold as the other). Both are very comparable with their ice cream, mix ins, and toppings. Wonders takes the cake on more options and larger size but my bowl wasn't crafted as well as the pictures showed. Besides that, the peanut butter ice cream was amazing. I ordered the Reese's and Banana roll with brownies added on top and every mix in and topping worked great together. They ran out of pocky sticks which really would have made this IG-able Thai rolled ice cream is an awesome mix up to the normal ice cream or soft serve most places have and the mix ins and presentation can't be beat. However, this type of ice cream does melt fast so you have to eat quick (which is easy for me). The atmosphere was a bit off-putting with the front door being broken and the inside seemed a bit dirty but I'm more concerned about the ice cream itself since it's not a sit down restaurant so these guys get 4 stars. In terms of the rolled ice cream... 5 stars! Definitely ready to try their waffle bowl, taco or even donut next that's going to be quite a treat read more
Wonders is ok...(2.5 stars) Upon entering my friend and I definitely weren't feeling the appeal of it at all. The store front looks really rundown and dirty, going inside it all kind of looks super rinky dink. Lots of things to clean up on like for example; if the toppings are being displayed they should make an effort to make it look better, maybe clean up the tables and the floors, stuff like that. I'm def. used to seeing ice cream places being all cool/cutesy, kept really up to standard and overall aesthetically pleasing but I think Wonders totally missed that mark. The ice cream was alright, the girl who made mine did a good job, but not something I'm interested in going back for. read more

So last summer I rated Wonders as a 5. What has happened in a year? Well they still make rolled-ice cream right in front of you which is pretty amazing. However, something has gone wrong with their flavors. My favorite last year is a passion fruit with mango and strawberry. I ordered it again yesterday and was sorely disappointed. Instead of the beautiful, pucker your mouth sour and sweet of the passion fruit, the dominant flavor was a weird, overly sweet vanilla flavor. I even went back in the shop and gave them back the initial serving they made. They very willingly remade it. Unfortunately the second result was the same as the first. I don't know what has happened; it was honestly not good. read more

My son and I stopped in at the suggestion of a friend. I tried something I usually never would; #12 Mango and Tajin. A+ presentation, amazing burst of flavor, customer service to boot! We will be back! read more

Upon arrival of this hole in the wall establishment I was kind of disappointed because their air condition wasn't on because they had fuse issues and apparently someone did not try this out before opening their doors. The other thing I noticed about this place is that they have high turn over and it appears to me that the new staff doesn't get a whole lot of training as many mistakes were made. I do however have to say after visiting three times the air is working however with the amount of people waiting inside it is still pretty warm and stuffyinside which doesn't help with the fact that they are making ice cream. I have yet to be disappointed on the ice cream choices I have made, and if it weren't for the curb appeal, limited parking, and being too stuffy inside I would easily give this place 5 stars. read more
Wonders ice cream was not worth the hype. It is an interesting neighborhood, not interesting in the good way. We walked in to a crowded small shop with a big menu and not much instruction. It was a cold atmosphere, and was very bland looking. The people working there were not overly friendly and it didn't feel very engaging, just passive. I was excited to visit a popular place and get a interesting and new dessert, but it just wasn't worth the drive and excitement. The ice cream was OK, but melted fast and my mint ice cream was a interesting blue tint. It was definitely not what I was expecting at all, but not a total loss. read more
This is not your typical ice cream joint, the flavor is milky and the taste is slightly artificial. We ordered the melon and passion fruit flavor. The melon is better. You can add all sorts of topping you prefer. It kind of reminds me of cold stone but they actually had to put some muscle power into mixing the ice cream on a chilled stainless steel plate, use a putty knife to press it thin and then scrap it forward to make a rolling effect. It looks like a tobacco roll haha! It's kinda fun to do with your family and friends. read more
A second Thai rolled ice cream store in the metro area. A good variety of options. We picked #7 coffee bears and #9 taro berry. Pretty good. A small store and it is not easy to locate so slow down when you get to the block. read more
Finally got to try Wonders! BOO-YAH! Set my mind to it and here I am, and on that note- here we go. :) I came in today a little past noon and there was not much a wait (like 3 people ahead of me). Really happy about that since I've heard about the long lines. Advice on that: just try to come in on weekdays before or perhaps after dinner rushes. The craze just started so it's going to be busy. They've got quite the variety of flavors (which you can combine) as well as toppings, so there's definitely something for everyone. BONUS POINTS- they can make all their flavors dairy-free and have flavors like taro! Yay! I came specifically for their newest addition, however, THE ICE CREAM TACOS!! I love fun food trends and this one did not disappoint. It's HUGE and definitely well worth the price (base price of $6). I got their rendition of the Cookie Monster which is the blue/teal mint ice cream with whipped cream, crushed Oreos, and chocolate chip cookie crisps. Being the boujee foodie that I am, I of course threw in the chocolate Pocky sticks for the Insta. I also got the strawberry ice cream taco with all yummy goodness on top as well. Both were nice and creamy! The taco itself was a pretty black, and was thin and crisp. On that note, like most tacos, things can get messy so maybe ask for a cup as back-up. Service was also super friendly and the space/vibe quite trendy. My suggestions would be to maybe have some more tables by the window and to look into how they're keeping the inside cool, temp wise. End result- I left happy, so they get 2 thumbs up from me! read more
