Although I have tried my fair share of funky flavors, I have never come across as many unique and…read moregenuinely tasty options as those at Carmen's Italian Ice. Calling the selection good would be an understatement. Flavors and styles lined the walls, and they have even introduced seasonal spring drinks alongside their custards and Italian ice. I ordered a gelati, which came with two flavors and the option to add a warm brownie in the center. They also offer prepackaged pints to take home. The only item that could not be sampled was the not fried chicken, their iconic Shark Tank inspired creation shaped like a chicken leg, where the novelty lies more in the form than the flavor. Some flavors had intriguing names like Tiger Blood and Midnight Fantasy, and the staff were more than happy to explain each one in detail. *Midnight Fantasy: featured a chocolate base mixed with chunks of brookie. It leaned heavier with a slightly grainy texture from the cookie pieces, but the chocolate itself was not overly sweet. It worked best when paired with something lighter. The brookie itself was well balanced, with a fudgy brownie component and a cookie that had a snickerdoodle like quality. *Mango Italian Ice: had a clean, fruity flavor and a smooth texture. It was not overly icy and paired nicely with the custard on top. *Honey Milk: was my favorite of everything I tried. The honey flavor came through strongly, both in taste and aroma, while the milky richness added a smooth creaminess. It paired beautifully with the Italian ice and balanced the richness of the Midnight Fantasy. *Spring Break Soda: was an interesting take on a Sprite style drink, with kiwi syrup, blue raspberry syrup, grenadine, and cold foam. It definitely delivered a sugar rush. There was a tropical feel, but it may be best suited for those with a serious sweet tooth. There is likely something for everyone here, and the friendly service makes it easy to find your match. While I would probably skip the sodas, the Italian ice and custard stood out for their quality.

We weren't aware of the hours, but they still helped us and apologized for not having all their displays up. There is only outdoor seating that is shared with other neighboring establishments. The menu is enormous. It's a big overwhelming, but the staff is very patient and will answer all questions and guide you. You can even sample many flavors! I ended up getting a kids gelati with ube custard and horchata ice. I love that they have a mini size and such unique flavors here!!

Love the coffee oreo. Never has disappointed me as a flavor. Fast workers and samples are distributed pretty fast. Glad there's good ice cream so close by.

Sarah offers plenty of flavors, but none of them truly stood out…read more I was stunned upon entering as the wall was covered with every flavor imaginable. There were endless fruity and chocolate combinations to choose from. I had a chuckle at their Luck O' The Irish flavor, a leprechaun inspired mix of mint Oreo and Lucky Charms. There was a sign stating that samples were limited to two, but I appreciated that the employees let us try a few extra given the overwhelming variety. *Lavender Honey: leaned far more heavily into honey than lavender. I was disappointed by how faint the floral notes were. The base was overly milky and dominated by sweetness rather than any delicate herbal flavor. *Cherry Blossom: suffered from the same issue of muted flavors. Supposedly a rose water and cherry combination, neither ingredient made much of an impression on the base. The rose lacked any fragrance and the cherry failed to provide either tartness or brightness. *Salted Caramel: slightly too aggressive with the sea salt, though it could have worked if the caramel had more depth. Instead, the caramel lacked any rich, toasted flavor, leaving the overall profile rather flat. The variety was entertaining, but the execution fell short. Many of the flavors sounded far more exciting than they actually tasted. The mix-ins and toppings needed to be incorporated more generously, and the bases themselves required stronger infusions to carry the advertised flavors. In the end, the playful names were more memorable than the ice cream itself.

I love Mimi's! If you're craving interesting flavors in a cozy atmosphere, come here.

Tomato would be interesting, I wonder if it's ever been on the menu. My last visit involved a Thai Basil and something with coffee in it. Can't remember the name, but both were wonderful! There's ample parking too, so if you're in Rockville then be sure to visit. Enjoy :)

Good ice cream. We…read moreordered 2 scoops of ice cream and the gentlemen convinced us to spend a few more dollars and get a pint. So glad we did. We got a pint of coffee Oreo. It's a very light coffee flavor and small pieces of Oreo. I would have liked bigger chunks - but it's still good. We also got a pint of brownie bites. The brownies are also tiny, but good. Service was outstanding. The gentleman who helped us was very friendly.

I noticed they added more lawn chairs since the weathers nice! The staff is always helpful and quick at serving orders. They have a bunch of flavors to pick from and honestly it can be sort of a hit or miss. The classics are always great though like the cookies and cream or butter pecan. I got the cherry vanilla and honestly that's my bad because I thought it would be real cherries not maraschino cherries lol. The mixed berry cheesecake was so good though, it had a mixed berry jam and graham crackers swirled throughout. The pistachio was another slight miss for us. I appreciate the amount of pistachios sprinkled throughout but the base was giving amaretto/almond flavoring as opposed to a true pistachio ice cream. (I also don't like amaretto) so that doesn't help lol but overall glad I tried the flavors and now I can try different ones next time!

I'm a long time fan of Bruster's! Today I tried their strawberry matcha which is part of their…read morespring 2026 menu. It was essentially their strawberry ice cream and matcha put together. The strawberry flavor was very strong, so much so that I couldn't really taste the matcha. So it's good if you're a strawberry ice cream fan! I did like how it wasn't too sweet. David had the Caramel Brownie Batter. It is very caramel-y. The brownie bits are very much ooey gooey batter-like rather than solid brownie chunks. I do think the single scoop is a bit overpriced ($5.20 something) which was only $.70 cents less than David's double scoop.

IYKYK ;) They also have usual flavors like vanilla, chocolate, mint chocolate chip, strawberry and so on. The place is very small you place you're order it's made in front of you are you exit to enjoy on the exterior patio or in your car. Only 6 people can fit in the vestibule to order (maybe up to 10). Everything is done in front of you and it's worth the wait. They have several ice creams, shakes, sundaes and floats. The service is always great but depending on the season they may be out of certain flavors so read the notes around the window while you wait. Their hours vary based on the season. They are located on Rt.355 - Hungerford Drive next to Cameron's Seafood directly across from MCPS Board of Education building before you get to Montgomery College - Manakee Building.

If we're being honest, calling Sarah's Handmade Ice Cream a "5-star" experience feels like…read moreunderselling it: this place is a full-blown 10/5. From the second you walk in, it's clear this isn't your average scoop shop. The atmosphere is warm, nostalgic, and just chaotic enough (in the best way) to feel like you've stumbled onto a local secret that everyone somehow already knows about. And then there's the ice cream... which is borderline ridiculous. Every flavor tastes like it was made five minutes ago by someone who actually cares: rich, creamy, and unapologetically indulgent. None of that airy, melts-before-you-sit-down nonsense. This is the kind of ice cream that makes you pause mid-conversation just to process what just happened on your taste buds. Whether you're going classic or trying one of their more creative flavors, it hits every single time. And the portions? Well, let's just say they don't believe in heartbreak. You ask for a scoop and they hand you something that feels like a small personal victory. What really seals it, though, is the consistency. You can come in on a random weekday or a packed weekend night, and it's the same quality, same energy, same "why is this so good?" moment every time. Bottom line is that Sarah's isn't just ice cream: it's a ritual, a reward, and honestly, it'a a bit of a problem once you realize how often you're craving it. 10 out of 5 stars, no notes.
