    Hawaiian Avalanche With Almond Milk
    Steve A.

    Best place in Parma for ice cream. It has an endless amount of good flavors. Zero Zest always seems to have a long line at the window. For sure it's worth waiting awhile. They have mix ins and lots of non dairy selections. A specialty here is the Avalanche. It mixes in candy or fruit with any ice cream. There's almost unlimited combinations you can make. It's about $5 for a medium cup. They have a vegan vanilla ice cream flavor that can also be used. It's made with almond milk. This place is very good for vegans and they also have a few sorbets. It always has long lines but they are fast. It used to be just cash only. They now accept credit cards so they have slightly updated.

    I ordered the Turtle Avalanche. It was amazing. This place deserves more than five stars. The are quick. And friendly. The line was 20 people deep. But they moved it quickly. This place also offers vegan free and soy free ice cream made with Almond milk. You can't go wrong here.

    The best cherry dipped vanilla cone there ever was. A staple stop in the summertime. So many options on the menu!

    Chocolate Brownie Avalanche - highly recommend!

    I have loved this place since I was a kid. Is it nostalgia? Maybe a bit but honestly, there's a reason it's popular - just look at the lines during the summer. It's mostly a soft serve place with loads of cone options, avalanches (think dairy queen blizzard but better), shakes, etc. My go-to has been and will always be a chocolate brownie avalanche. Chocolate soft serve with delicious brownies, I always ask that they layer instead of mixing...the brownie pieces are larger and so so much better. But honestly I've sampled a decent chunk of the menu and have never been dissatisfied, there's something for everyone. They now have small cups for the avalanches and I find that to be more than enough. At under $4 you can't beat it. Great on hot days or just when you have a craving. Be sure to read the fact of the day located to the left of the left window, they're always interesting!

    Though in plain sight, it's a hidden treasure for those who don't/can't have dairy. On top of regular dairy ice cream treats, they offer Silk almond milk ice cream products. I ordered the butterfinger avalanche with almond milk. Delicious! Never thought I would be able to go somewhere and have a " DQ blizzard" styled treat again. The ice cream was a normal consistency of regular ice cream where sometime things with almond milk are a little watery. And they are far from skimpy with the toppings. I had a lot of butterfinger in every bite. It never made it home! Highly recommended. Especially for those tired of "plain Jane" ice cream because of allergies.

    New to the neighborhood and was recommended to try Zero Zest which I was told is under new management. I was impressed when I saw they had vegan ice cream, so I had to give it a try. The service was great. With Zero Zest being on the same street as another local ice cream competitor that gets a lot of praise I am glad to say that Zero Zest gives them a run for their money. They have some similarities, but what makes Zero Zest is their unique styles of ice cream and variety. I look forward to coming back

    Dairy free options

    Vegan almond milk vanilla ice cream is great. Can add in plenty of items to mix it up.

    A fabulous local ice cream spot in Ohio City!…read more Before the end of the summer, I had to come here for some ice cream. First, I got two scoops ($6.50) of traditional ice cream - a scoop of oatmeal creme pie and a scoop of strawberries & cream. Both were excellent and creamy. The strawberry ice cream had a great natural strawberry flavor, and the oatmeal creme pie ice cream came with little bits of oatmeal creme pies. Literally a few minutes after finishing the two scoops, I decided to get some more ice cream, LOL. You can never have too much ice cream, right? I opted for the peanut butter & grape jam soft serve ($6.50). The peanut butter had a strong peanut butter flavor, and the grape jam was utterly refreshing and reminded me of grape soda (complimentary). The staff was very friendly. Plenty of outdoor seating. The shop has a big sports cooler of complimentary water next to the entrance.

    I have been here a handful of times but not in over a year. And I forgot to take a pic, I ate my…read moreice cream too fast. They serve ice cream and also fries and corn dogs. I believe in the winter they serve ramen but I've never had any food just ice cream. I got the mango lassi ice cream cone small that is 2 scoops. And my partner got a cup of the strawberries and cream. We found a seat, ate and people watched. Good place for it. Ice cream was very good. Both the mango and strawberry had chunks in them. Prices are not cheap. But it is super good and they have very inventive flavors. You can taste test. Parking is whatever you can find. No lot just parallel where ever it's OK. Line moves fast. No restrooms. This is just a little storefront in a neighborhood. But it is good. Worth a try.

    Before I went to Cleveland for my 30th birthday back in December 2025, I did my research on some of…read moreCleveland's finest ice cream shops, and Mitchell's Homemade Ice Cream not only came on the list of Cleveland's finest ice cream shops, but also among the best in the entire state of Ohio. When I first entered the shop, I was warmly greeted by a staff member, who offered me some samples before I ordered anything. Since I was visiting Cleveland in December, I decided to try some of their holiday flavors such as eggnog, caramel gingerbread, and peppermint stick. Every flavor I tried was amazing, especially their blue cosmo flavor. Blue cosmo is their trademark flavor, and I highly recommend that flavor to anyone who enjoys a lot of sweetness. I visited the shop several times during my time in Cleveland, and each visit was outstanding. No matter what flavor malt I got, each one turned out delicious. On the last visit before returning home, I decided to get a simple ice cream sundae with vanilla ice cream, caramel sauce, chocolate sauce, and whipped cream. It turned out amazing. Another thing I like is the atmosphere. You can even go up the stairs and watch workers make ice cream while you enjoy your delicious sweet treat. I highly recommend Mitchell's Homemade Ice Cream to anyone who lives in the Cleveland area or plans to visit.
