    Vanilla with strawberry  Ig @yumthatgreenville
    Lori L.

    Time for an updated review since I've been here several more times. I love their soft serve ice cream. Everyone is always friendly and it's always super clean in here!

    my go-to creation!

    We love Crispy Cones! You can't get soft serve ice cream at many places, and the crispy cone itself is such a cool feature! So many variations & toppings make it really special, and the specialty flavors of the month/week definately keep people coming! We always have quick service, but the workers are typically younger high school or college students, which is completely fine, but sometimes they are a tad rude..

    Good concept but for the price not so good ($8 give or take for a cone)...I ordered strawberry /nutella and there was a tiny bit of drizzle and 4 strawberry slices individually added to the cone. The ice cream was hollow and kind of icy / not creamy. Ice cream fell off the cone after the second bite. Just overall a bummer.

    Traditional cone with chocolate vanilla swirl. Added Nutella and heath bar.

    Very clean and welcoming atmosphere and very friendly service. The size is perfect and taste is amazing. A fun treat!

    There are several options to choose from which you can customize even for their weekly specialty

    Only learned of this place Crispy Cones that had opened this past Spring after local residents saw it on Shark Tank and wanted one here. Came with my son and hope more will learn of this hidden gem. It's in the small strip found on the intersection of Garlington & Woodruff Rd (NE corner by OrangeTherapy and Oriental House, WingStop). Very clean quaint place that has menu on the monitor. It's soft serve ice cream that you can choose between vanilla, chocolate or swirl UNLESS there's a specialty flavor which there was - banana. Yes, the banana brulee! My son also considered it, wanting to expand his usual choice yet did go for the cookie a la mode. Each specialty had various fillings/toppings for example my Banana Brulee had graham crackers (which you see out the outside and in the inside), a peanut butter spread which was put on the inside of the pastry, and a caramel sauce on top of the banana foster ice cream. Normally the cone would be maple but I was watching my calories (jk) and asked for the traditional cone. My adult son on our "try something different" monthly date as mentioned, got the cookie a la mode. Yup when he was a child, he liked any kind of Oreo or cookie ice cream, etc. This had vanilla soft serve ice cream and Oreos in its filling & topping, yet it also had Biscoff spread and some type of cookie butter sauce and cookie dough. I think his childhood came back to life and why he already took a bite before I was able to take any photos. I keep calling these crispy cones as pastry cones because it tastes like a delicious pastry. The owner shared that the cones are baked instead of fried so healthier. Cones are really nice crisp and fresh. We saw one of the staff wrapping the dough around the cone shaper before the cones are baked. The ice cream is very creamy, even for the vanilla base. I used a spoon to eat mine except when it came time to get the cone. Absolutely loved the cone which to me is a yummy pastry. My son said he wanted to dip his cone at the end into something since he finished off the ice cream. They do sell hot chocolate and that would satisfy the desire when you want to dip a delightful pastry. So you basically get both ice cream and pastry. I ended up signing up for the loyalty program which is free. While there in the early afternoon, a family with a young son came in for their treat, and later a solo woman. The family stayed inside to eat while the woman took hers to go. We stayed so that I could start the review and not forget to post photos. One thing to keep in mind is their operating hours will shift to close earlier at night with the darker/winter month. Glad we were able to try something new, and one that we would definitely return for more.

    I've experienced Chimney Cakes in Prague so I was very hesitant by this new addition around the US but, I will say I was very impressed by the taste and flavors! I did the strawberry and Nutella with a cookie butter sauce...my mouth is watering still thinking about it! The portion threw me off because it seemed very small but I'm sure if I got ice cream it would've been more full. Either way the flavor was there and would definitely get another!

    New dessert location! Very unique way to eat your ice cream. I love the cones are made fresh and it's really cool to see them get made. Everyone was very friendly and personable. You actually order yourself at a kiosk but there is someone there to help if you have questions. I went during a very very busy time so I'm not sure I can speak on the vibe. What I can say is that the line moved quickly for sure. It was delicious. The cones was warm and really reminded me of a cinnamon roll but just in the shape of a cone. For me, it was not worth paying extra for toppings bc they can only put a few pieces onto the ice cream. I did notice them put some inside the cone itself which was nice. It was $20 for our 2 cones. Not sure I can afford to come often but it was a nice treat.

    Chocolate with heath bar pieces. (Minus several bites)

    So good. The young lady that made our cones was so kind and helpful. The seating area is simple and clean. The ice cream cones are amazing. Highly recommend the chocolate ice cream. It had good flavor without being overly sweet. The cinnamon sugar on the cones add a great texture and flavor. Three of us spent just under $30 total. We will definitely be back.

    Not what I was expecting. The cone is a donut texture and is very tasty on its own and with the variety of spreads and toppings offered. The soft serve was similar to what you get at QT, but definitely more expensive in comparison to other ice cream shops...and asking for a tip on top of that was off putting to me. The parking lot is tight, and the shop itself is small with limited seating. Fun to try once.

    Cute little store with a cute concept. I really like they have different flavors but this wasn't for me. The cones are like donuts and I was not a fan. The ice cream was basic ice cream in the cone or cup. My experience wasn't bad but for me there wasn't a wow factor. The service was great. The lady who helped me was super nice and friendly even when I wanted to alter my order the last minute. I think it's fun to try and I bet a lot of people will love it. It's just not for me.

    The biscoff cone is amazing!

    I went to Carmella's on my aunt's recommendation. When she heard I was going to Greenville, she…read moresaid I had to go! She had been to their sister restaurant in Charleston. We went on a Sunday morning and the staff was great and quick. For coffee, I tried one of their current specials, a cinnamon bun latte. I loved it. This latte is for someone who likes it sweet. For my lunch, I got the salami goat sandwich. It was creamy and spicy, and the bread had the perfect bounce. My friend ordered the turkey and fig sandwich, and she let me take a bite. I'd be tempted to order that one next time. As a note, they don't do any substitutions on any sandwich. They will let you remove an item, but you cannot swap. I took a lemon pistachio olive oil cake to go. This was the star of the show. It was light, fresh and moist. I would come back for one everytime. If you're walking down the riverwalk in Greenville, it's definitely worth the stop.

I will admit that my initial reaction to the Belgium waffle wasn't great. For a dine in experience, being served in a to-go container felt a little off, and the Smucker's syrup didn't exactly help matters. Let's be honest, that's not real maple syrup, and it definitely took away from the presentation. That said, the waffle itself redeemed those first impressions. It was delicious, light, and had this subtle hint of vanilla that made it feel a little more special than your standard waffle. That touch of sweetness and flavor helped me quickly forget my initial disappointment. The breakfast presentation could use a little upgrade, but the taste absolutely delivered.

Hubs had the meatballs (which the server said they only had two left...a friend nabbed the others) and other friends had the moules (mussels) frites and the braised short rib IIRC. The *.frites were the biggest hits. My filet was perfect, Sharon was raving about her mussels being the best she's had in ages. I had a bite of the meatballs, they were ok but people agreed there are better things on their menu. I love that the frites come with a choice of 3 out of about 10 different custom mayos (aiolis for the fancy-schmancy). I tried the curry, sriracha, and a fruity one I can't remember exactly what it was. I liked the fruity one the best and to my surprise, the curry the least (I usually love curry, but the balance was off). The sriracha mayo was too subtle for me, I slather sriracha mayo on my burgers regularly. I have no class. The frites were fresh cut and I enjoyed them but there were far more than I could eat on my plate, and sadly frites don't keep. They have my favorite super sweet Lindemann's framboise lambic on tap; I've only ever had it in bottles before, so that was a treat. My husband thinks I'm crazy to drink it because it is SO SWEET but I love it. So does Sharon, and clearly we're not alone or they wouldn't waste a tap on it :). It's beer for people who hate beer. (I resemble that remark. Maybe hate is a strong word. But in my 30s I realized I'd rather drink a soda than a beer, except for this one.) Desserts sounded good but we were too stuffed to order any. Next time I come, I may try the mussels, or I might just order that steak again.

It's in a basement that feels like a pleasant dungeon or a 1500's rogue tavern, you know, the kind in the movies where plots to overturn evil rulers are hatched. It is a unique vibe and after your meal, when emerging back onto the brightly lit street, it's akin to stepping out of a secret place and back into the light of day. The beer selection is impressive. This food is Belgian inspired. Hence the name being derived from a mix of Trappist Monks, trap doors, and a hidden underground enclave. Many of the beers have higher alcohol content, listed on the menu, be advised. The specialty is Moules Frites, mussels prepared in various broths and fries double fried in duck fat served with a flight of your choice of flavored mayonnaise such as wasabi, curry, truffle, sriracha, etc. Very good. Reservations are highly recommended. It was a busy Thursday at 6:30pm and the place was literally packed, even the bar. The two of us were seated in a large, dark, alcove booth fitting for six or perhaps even eight. We had a reservation, so the hostess said, "we may as well fill it" since it was that crowded. Being such, it was five minutes before we were noticed and placed our drink orders, another five before our water arrived and we ordered and about 30 minutes later to get our food. In between we were left to ourselves. The service was not negligent, but it was minimal and not really friendly either. It was a busy night, so we will have grace. But the mussels were delicious. We both had the Provincale, a rich, savory, Mediterranean sauce of tomatoes, garlic and white wine. Bourdain says "never order the mussels", in his Kitchen Confidential book, but here you are safe because they are very popular and the main feature. I've probably said this before and it is worth repeating, they need to up their crusty bread game. The broth is so good and the accompanying bread just doesn't lend itself to bringing the dish to another level, but it could were it better bread. This is a solid and must do restaurant experience when visiting Greenville. It arguably should be the "one" restaurant you must visit in town because of its unique ambiance and unique food & beverage.

I was in the mood for some homemade soft-serve ice cream. To our surprise we stumbled upon River Streets Sweets- an homemade candy and ice cream confectionery located in the heart of downtown Greenville. I was in Oh, with the desserts they had ranging from candy, fudge, chocolate covered apples, soft-serve ice cream, popcorn, nuts, chocolate covered pretzels/marshmallows, and so much more. Thankfully my family was there because I would have bought everything-it's a child's dream. At last I got the soft-serve ice cream I was craving all day. Let me tell you, the ice cream, gelato, and sorbet were truly homemade. To my surprise the prices were not as pricey considering they were in downtown Greenville. My family got two scoops in a cup costing $7.95 a single scoop is $4.95. The scoops are a decent size for the price you are paying. River Streets Sweets has some unique flavors that I have never heard of before, such as Bear Claw, Blueberry, Hazelnut Coffee Crunch, and Pink Grapefruit. They also serve Raspberry Sorbet sugar-free which is nice. My family decided to get Rocky Road and Bear Claw. The ice cream was so rich, creamy, and flavorful. It did not taste artificial like some ice creams in supermarkets. My whole family was pleased with the purchase. The staff were extremely friendly, especially the one member who was mending the ice cream section. She was so kind and energetic, letting my family sample the flavors before purchasing, which a lot of food businesses do not do. In addition, to my surprise, the store was huge, leaving plenty of space to walk around without running into other customers. The store was organized, making it easy to see all the yummy treats. There was no visible dirt or dust, the businesses looked polished.The only downfall would be the parking situation, since they are located in the heart of Greenville parking is limited. I would recommend walking and parking in a free or reduced parking area. The next time I am in downtown Greenville or around the area, I will be stopping by River Streets Sweets to indulge in some of their other sweet treats, such as their fudge and chocolate covered apples. I would recommend checking out River Streets Sweets if you are in the area.
