Visiting from Houston and we were craving ice cream...such a cute place!! Cute decor and super nice staff. They let you have taster samples - flavors are seasonal - but would recommend trying the Lemon Olive Oil. We decided to split the blackberry dessert flavor - 2 scoops - perfect for sharing. read more

A wonderful restaurant option inside Malcolm Yards. We had 2 orders of fries and a small vanilla ice cream in a cup. They also have soft serve ice cream if that's more of your jam. Also as a side note, if you aren't ordering ice cream, you can head straight up to the counter to order the other options instead of waiting on the ice cream line. The fries are similar to a McDonald's fry, they are delicious and you can tell the ice cream isn't just any Ol' ice cream. It's fancy with vanilla bean and made with love. read more

We came specially for ice cream this trip. Bebe Zito really had some of the best flavor combos of ice cream you'll find anywhere in the Twin Cities! I tried the Tres Leches Strawberry Snickerdoodle, which was such a unique flavor! It had chunks of a sweet strawberry cookie, inside a very creamy ice cream base. Nothing was too overpowering and I'd get this flavor again. They also have a good menu with their take on a fast food burger, fries, cheese curds and special sauces. The burgers are delicious! The cheese curds are unique as square chunks of cheese which I recommend dipping into the honey sauce they come with!! The shoestring French fries are also a must! read more

Came here for the burgers, but didn't know they close their kitchen at 8pm. We were a minute late, but they were nice enough to make our order! The cheese burgers were perfect. Smash burger style, so they had a really nice char on the patties. Great pickles, lettuce, cheese, and a tasty sauce to top it off. It was messy in a good way. We finished our meal with ice-cream for dessert. The blueberry London fog was delish. There was both indoor and outdoor seating, with a cute selection of merch. I'd definitely come back! read more

Stopped by Bebo Soto on Eat Street for some ice cream in the first week of March, and had a great experience! My wife tried the Cookies and Cream and absolutely loved it--creamy, rich, and full of flavor. Easy 5 stars from her. I went with the Strawberry, which was decent but not as impressive--I'd rate it 3.5 stars as it could have had a stronger fruit flavor. Service was friendly, and the shop had a nice vibe. Parking is street-only, so be prepared to find a spot. Overall, worth checking out, especially if you're a cookies and cream fan! read more

I really wanted to love Bebe Zito's. The ice cream is fantastic - genuinely some of the best I've had in the cities. if you want ice cream, and only ice cream, and absolutely nothing else, then stop reading and consider this review 5 stars. But if you, like me, may have any interest in cheese curds, or spicy chicken, or a burger, god forbid; i suggest you carry on reading. I should preface this with an in depth disclaimer: i am not a picky eater. i eat things that others find repulsive, i eat things in ways other people would never dare to consider. when i cook, i consume a mouthful of each ingredient im using before i add it. i want to understand the taste! (this is not an exaggeration). i eat anything. and that's why it's so strange to me that for the first time in my life, the power of bebe zitos has rendered me incapable of finishing a dish. This food sucks, man. it's like, made by people without tastebuds. The food here is so aggressively bland, it's rather impressive. Not underseasoned... unseasoned. Every dish tastes like the kitchen staff has a personal vendetta against flavor. Chewing it is like having a mouthful of familiar textures with very little taste, if any. it's quite maddening. Here's what really gets me: they'll proudly serve a vanilla ice cream with MSG added, and use words like "umami" on their menu. But a burger? Fries? Those don't deserve salt. The cognitive dissonance is staggering. You understand flavor science well enough to dose your ice cream with MSG, but you can't be bothered to season a patty? it's bland incarnate, masquerading as classic diner fare, but deconstructed and self aware, in all its greasy goodness. And those precious little boxes everything comes in? The ones that look so adorable on Instagram? They're a disaster. The second your food goes in there, steam turns everything soggy. Your fries get limp, your burger sits in its own condensation. My mind has never before been a host to the abstract thought forms of "french fry" and "erectile dysfunction treatments" in my mind at the same time Speaking of which - I paid extra for avocado on my burger. What I got was half an avocado, uncut, just plopped on top like an afterthought. Not sliced. Not mashed. Just a whole hemisphere of avocado that's somehow both slimy and weirdly warm from sitting in that steam-trap box. Look at this thing. This is what $3 extra gets you - a sweaty, unsliced avocado half slowly dissolving into mush on top of an already soggy burger. Did anyone in the kitchen actually think about how this would be eaten? Or was the photo op the only consideration? The complaints keep piling up elsewhere too - overcooked tots, what appears to be frozen pre-packaged chicken, grossly overpriced for what you get. This is an ice cream shop pretending to run a kitchen, and it shows. The irony is that they clearly know how to make something excellent - the proof is in their ice cream. Creative flavors, perfect execution, a depth of understanding the chemistry of taste. So why does the savory menu taste like an afterthought prepared by people who've never actually eaten their own food? Come for dessert, skip literally everything else. read more

My boyfriend and I had made a habit of coming here almost every week last summer. I love the funky flavors they offer and every flavor I've tried has been great! I almost ALWAYS get the dad's coffee and dulcenia as a split scoop and it is a generous portion of ice cream. I really love the vibe and decor in the shop and enjoy eating outside at one of their little tables! The staff is always very friendly! It is a tiny bit expensive but I honestly think its worth it ! read more

Bebe Zito has an awesome selection of unique flavors that will appeal to all! The storefront is pretty simple and small with some indoor and outdoor seating. You can tell the quality of ingredients is high, which does make the ice cream a bit expensive. I like that they offer rotating seasonal flavors to keep you coming back for more! They don't allow samples but do say that you can get a different flavor if you don't like the one you chose. Given the uniqueness of the flavors, I do wish they'd let you try one or two before choosing. Will be back to try more flavors soon (as well as their hot food)! read more

Fun Latin inspired local ice cream chain. It's silly sometimes you live so close to something, but you never visit it. I used to walk to the Wedge and was litch a quarter block from a location and even went by some days and never stopped inside. Well I can safely say those decisions were a mistake. The Ubebe has won my heart. It may not look the most appetizing with the caramelized sugar over a purple color palette, but don't judge an Ubebe by its cover. The different toppings are paired well. The crunch of the top with marshmallows evokes the s'mores of an autumn camp fire. Below the caramel ice cream dances with pecans. I wrote this review some time since delighting in its sweetness, but the memory is fresh as new snow. Unfortunately, this is a seasonal :( so will have to wait until next year for another round. But in the meantime, would definitely be encouraged to try the other flavors. read more

I'm probably not going to make a lot of friends with this review, but I wasn't in love with Bebe Zito. We had excellent service in the cute little shop and there tons of cool flavors. However, I wasn't in love with the texture or taste of my ice cream. Honestly, I thought it tried too hard - sometimes, less is more. This is one of those instances where less competing flavors and priorities would have been better for me. However, when I'm back in town, i will definitely try it again - everyone deserves a second chance. read more

It was just okay. Seems like they have some cool flavors that I would have loved to try, but they don't have any samples. Wasn't ready to commit to paying for a full scoop of something I'm not sure about. Went for the safer options. For the price, the ice cream is pretty average. Not bad but nothing memorable. read more

I love Bebe Zito. The flagship location still does it best IMO. Such a fun place to hang out. The food and ice cream are great. Service is fast, friendly, and attentive. Parking can be a bit of a hassle as can indoor seating in the winter. During the warmer months there's some patio seating. Getting food & ice cream to go is another option. read more

Ok this place sort of confused me. I was craving a burger and was told to come here - an ice cream shop? Ok cool! I show up and it is indeed an ice cream shop, I think Betelgeuse themed? Not sure but the ice cream looked delicious, I didn't get any this trip - I was craving a burger! I ordered the burger and a side of cheese curds and really enjoyed both of them. The burger was a smaller size which I really appreciated (not a fan personally of those giant oversized burgers) and it was simple but flavorful! The cheese curds were a great add on, very crispy on the outside! I'd come back again for sure, next time to try some ice cream. read more

My most favorite ice cream shop in all of the Twin Cities! I usually get the Animal Frossting flavor, but today decided to branch out and got the Parent Trap flavor, which is a A sweet cream and salted doce de leite base with ample Oreo and peanut butter freckle mix ins, topped with additional doce de leite sauce. It was divine. Super caramely and I loved the additional sauce on top. Just enough peanut butter but it wasn't overwhelming. This shop also offers a short food menu and includes burgers, fries, and other ice cream treats like shakes. While they have several locations around the cities, this one is my favorite because they have outdoor seating. I'll see you again soon, Bebezito! read more

Delicious superpremium ice cream with unique and decadent flavors. And, for those who need food before moving to dessert, they also have a great burger and chicken sandwich! Bebe Zito's ice creams are rich with deep flavors - you can tell they use high-quality ingredients and understand how to balance and bring together flavors. I think I've now tried almost every flavor they have, though they also introduce new flavors pretty regularly. It's tough to pick favorites, but Romeo and Juliet and Strawberry Fields 4 Ever are two I keep coming back to. And, if you can't decide which flavor you feel like that day, try the 6-pack sampler! read more

If you like unique and extravagant ice cream you need to check out Bebe Zito. Lots of packed and special flavors to choose from. I was pumped about the fact they had an ice cream flight (hello indecisiveness) but bummed to see it was $18. I saw someone else order it and it was huge! I wish places would do smaller portioned flights because I wanted to fast all the flavors here. I ended up going with a live love lemon flavor, and it was a little too rich for my taste. Would love to come back and try something different. Shop is cute with some limited seating options. $5.50 for a scoop and friendly service. read more

Was excited to visit after hearing about their wide variety of interesting flavors! The service is friendly and the prices are reasonable. I ordered a scoop of the Pistachio/Almond ice cream but was disappointed to find that I instead got a scoop of some other flavor that was very coconut-y. In retrospect I should've watched while they scooped the ice cream, but if it was indeed the pistachio that I got, it didn't taste like it at all. I would come back again, but will be paying more attention when they scoop it. read more

Bebe Zito is my absolutely favorite Ice cream shop in the twin cities. They have the most unique flavors I've ever had. As someone who is diary free, I love the many options they have. The flavors are so robust, interesting and the dairy free flavors are so creamy. I had the Marvelous Mrs. Hazel which is a chocolate hazelnut flavor. You could never tell it's dairy free because it's so creamy! The staff are always so nice and there are a few tables inside and outside to sit at! There is a good amount of street parking around the shop. I also stole some of my friends chips and man are they good! They are sweet and salty! I highly recommend this to anyone! A true Minnesota staple. read more

BEST ICE CREAM IN MINNEAPOLIS. I'm sorry but the other 2 famous ice cream places in the Twin Cities just...meh for me (not bad but I dont understand the hype). I only tried the strawberry ice cream but WOW IT WAS AMAZING! Truly I savored every lick. They have a small amount of inside seating but a good collection of outdoor seating options. As of late June 2022 they did not allow free samples which I thought was dumb. If you're not requiring masks and your employees don't wear mask and you are allowing inside dining...there is no reason why folks can't sample the ice cream. They did say if I hated it they'd give me a new flavor so I guess that was something... Regardless - best local ice cream! read more

Honestly some of the best ice cream I've had, not just in the cities, but in my life! I had a chocolate waffle cone with 2 delectable flavors.

Bebe Zito is definitely my number one pick for Ice Cream in the Twin Cities. They have some of the most unique flavors I've ever seen, many with nostalgic and pop-culture references which make it even more fun. The variety here is unparallelled and ever-changing which I appreciate. I really try and get a new flavor every time! They also have dairy free & vegan options (my favorite has been the Marvelous Mrs. Hazel). I couldn't pick just one flavor to call my favorite, but I've tried The Crowening, The Parent Trap flavor, The Dunkaroo flavor, the Mrs. Hazel flavor, a key lime flavor, and a few others. The best part of any flavor with cookie dough are the enormous chunks. This is, and will continue to be, my summertime favorite! read more

Received Excellent customer service from Devontae at this location. Clean and fast service!

Such a well-balanced ice cream! I've never had anything of this caliber when it comes to some things as simple as ice cream. Just when I thought ice cream couldn't get any better -- Bebe Zito Ice cream comes along and changes my mind. Loved every bite of it. The flavors are super unique, packed with flavors and a punch. Even if you go with the half and half scoop option, you will get your money's worth! Also, the burgers are on another level! Make sure to try that as well! So good! A must-have if you're already here, no matter if you're full or hungry. read more

RUN DON'T WALK I would truly scream for this ice cream Lemon EVOO + chocolate sorbet, Strawberry Nesquick + Japanese Peanut I'm a firm advocate for split scoop cups and options at ice cream stores. Let me break down these amazing flavors for y'all-- Lemon EVOO: oh. my. god. if you're questioning olive oil on ice cream, stop. just try it. the lemon adds a nice brightness and contrast to the velvety, smooth olive oily ice cream and it just works. Chocolate sorbet: rich and decadent, it's a classic dark chocolate. the 8th wonder of the world. Strawberry nesquick: There's a sense of nostalgia tied to this one, not because I had strawberry nesquick growing up but because it just somehow captures the essence of childhood in a flavor. sprinkles? yes. Japanese peanut: the STAR of the show. think peanut butter ice cream with added depth and chewy sweetness. think peanut butter ice cream but 1,000x better (didn't think that was possible either) read more

Wanted to love it but ice cream flavors are very unusual and good for a taste but not a whole serving. A little too out there for me.

Oh man oh man oh man, Where to begin!? This is some of the best textured ice cream I've had in a long time. Smooth, thicc, and creamy! There's a handful of decadent flavors ranging from a sweet and salty flavor (like the Salted Caramel Flan Brûlée) to a soft and smooth flavor (like the Vanilla MSG). They rotate flavors every so often~ I recently had Dad's Coffee and it was fairly decent. They do not give out samples; however, an employee informed me that if I did not like a flavor, I could return my order and pick another one! Not only do they have ice cream, but they also sell a variety of burgers, Chicken Trendies / Sammies for sale (fries are sold separately). My only gripe would be the consistency with their burgers. The first time I visited, I ordered a Single Burger. My initial thought was it is a rather small patty for the price I paid (super tasty though). The next few times I've stopped in and got their Single Burger, the size would be either beefier or skimpier, and the flavor wasn't as striking. They also have gluten free buns available for $3, but comparing that to other restaurants that provide GF buns, I'd say it's overcharged. Overall, there are some items on the menu that are slightly pricy for a walk up and order establishment. I'm indifferent when it comes to their savory food, but I would definitely recommend coming on by to try their ice cream! read more

Definitely wanted to try a new ice cream place with such nice weather we've been having. I have been following Bebe Zito on Instagram and had to try this place out asap!!! I absolutely love the creativity of the flavors and especially loved "The Crowening" reference to my favorite show!! Also, the staff was super friendly and helpful since it took a while to choose! Here's a ranking of all the flavors: The Crowening: 5/5 Pistachio Almond 3/5 (creamy and light, but usually not my type of ice cream flavor) Brazilian Brigadeiro Chocolate: 5/5 Marvelous Mrs. Hazel: 4/5 Strawberry Fields 4 Ever: 3/5 I will be back to try more flavors, but if you have not checked this place out already, you are missing out! read more
