My hubby had found this little gem last year and we decided to take a little trip this past…read moreweekend. Not a bad drive from mid-Queens, it was about 20-30 minutes out of our way. While on a corner on a pretty busy street, the location seemed slightly obscure. No parking - just 2 or 3 spots in front of the establishment. We came mid-day on a gloomy Sunday in February...so we didn't have an issue parking right in the front. We were greeted by the friendly associate. There were lots of great-looking gelato flavors which the associate also allowed us to sample first (very kind). She was very patient with us and really seemed to enjoy working there. We're BIG hazelnut enthusiasts, so we each had one scoop of hazelnut flavor and one of the Rocher (hazelnut) flavor. They also had an amazing fig and honey gelato flavors which was absolutely delicious. They offer 4 sizes - kids' size, and then the usual - small, medium and large. The small is 2 generous scoops - and that's what we went with. The overall experience didn't disappoint at all; we thoroughly enjoyed the treat, my hubby had an espresso coffee as well (very good) and we got a kids cup of vanilla for our pup. The prices were also decent and for this type of experience, I will gladly support a small business. I definitely recommend checking out this little gem. Will return once the weather get warmer!

Uncle Louie G is one of my default favorites and their other longtime competitor Ralph's. This is one my neighborhood pick for Italian ice. On a New York summer's Saturday afternoon following brunch, I came for one small scoop of Italian ice $4.00. Delicious. There is no sales receipt when payment is in cash. The menu is affixed on their wall. I chose Sweet Georgia Peach which was a good choice. It is not entirely sweet but a good consistency. I find the flavor names awkward and very aberrant. "Wassup Watermelon, Pistachio Nutz, Rainbow Cookie, My Honey Doo, F.D.N.Y. Cherry, Cantaloupe Balls, et al." Uncle Louie G also offers ice cream, but my primary purpose is Italian ice. The ice cream also have vegetarian, non-dairy lactose free option. Customer service is friendly and young students who work for the summer. The young man was very accommodating to my request as I changed my mind at the last minute from watermelon to peach. Ergo, five stars for flavor + good customer service. Credit cards are accepted. There is one outdoor bench under a umbrella for shade and tables/seats for limited outdoor seating - rain or shine. It was an accomplished visit for a nice sweet cool down.

My budget has been relatively tight so I've been relying on this place just for something light on the wallet to eat and this place has been very dependable. This corner spot has more flavors of ice cream and icees than Baskin Robbins and the Hot Dogs as well as the burgers here are delish and give off a homemade type of feel that is a contrast from your typical fast food burger. The ladies behind the counter are very welcoming and helpful. This has been my small haven for at least once or twice a week and will definitely be a hot spot when Summer fully kicks in.

There were 15 people ahead of us and it took only 10 minutes. There were plenty of people working and helping, restocking and checking out. The parlor was adorable, everything was spotless and they had a restroom. This didn't feel like a New York experience where you have to eat standing up and you have to walk two blocks for the nearest public restroom. I felt comfortable with the street blocked off.
