    Dumbo Ice Cream
    Jeff M.

    Dumbo Ice Cream 65 W. Madison Ave. Dumont, NJ 07628 Bourbon Pecan Cotton Candy Sal's Special Brownie Split Appearance: 9/10 Taste: 9/10 Conveniently located on Madison Avenue approximately one mile from the historic Camp Merritt Memorial Monument is a local ice cream shop. Owner Sal introduced me a couple of the most popular homemade ice cream flavors and one of his newly crafted signature desserts. Bourbon Pecan: Although the ice cream is made with artificial whiskey, it tastes identical to the real deal. Also mixed in this ice cream are swirls of caramel with pecan bits hidden beneath. Cotton Candy: Initially, I was hesitant to explore this flavor because I would never envision combining a carnival treat with a frozen dessert. As soon as I took my first taste, I instantly realized why this is a hit My only regret is that I didn't purchase an entire pint to go! And speaking of size, when you choose your desired flavor, pick one of the four proportions. Aside from cups, sugar cones, waffle cups or waffle cones are also an option. Sal's Special Brownie Split: If you are planning to explore beyond the ice cream itself, then you may want consider trying one of Sal's desserts that he created. In lieu of three traditional scoops, this specialty sundae has one scoop of brownie s'mores ice cream and two brownie squares; also included is whipped cream, caramel syrup, and a sliced banana. Combining brownie with banana surpassed my taste bud expectations by a long shot Now that you "have the scoop" check out Dumbo ice cream for a variety of homemade flavors. #dumboicecream #dumontnj #bourbonpecan #localbusiness #cottoncandyicecream #salsspecialbrowniesplit #njicecreamshop #icecream #homemadeicecream #madisonave

    Outdoor seating, good variety of flavors. Each one I tried was delicious. Reasonable prices. Centrally located in town. Friendly owners and staff. Clean and updated inside and out.

    I had a scoop of apple crisp and and a scoop of churro chata (new flavor). Both were excellent and the churro was spectacular! I was served quickly and the shop is spotless. Will definitely come back!

    Wow! The ice cream here is fantastic and has a delightful homemade taste without being overly sweet. I had the Java chip, and my daughter chose the cotton candy. Even though I'm not typically a fan of unconventional flavors, the cotton candy was unique and delicious--I might even get it next time! My Java chip was equally enjoyable. The service was quick and friendly, and the music added to the great atmosphere. This will definitely be our go-to ice cream spot this summer.

    Popped in for Mother's Day and learned this place has only been open for two weeks! What a treat to have such a cute spot in Dumont. They have lots of outdoor seating and a nice variety of ice cream flavors to try. Cool waffle cones too! We had the Java chip- delish! Salted caramel cafe or Java chip -super yummy! The monster something was my absolute fav!! Chunks of peanut butter cup, swirls of chocolate and more-just outstanding! We also had the cherry vanilla and cake ice cream. Honestly all were delicious except for the cake one. It had chunks of 'cake' inside that were not very pleasing for us. It didn't settle well in our tummies (then again, maybe it's because all of the others were just fabulous) Will definitely go back again and again! Great service also!

    Sal runs a great ice cream shop! The ice cream is great with most of flavors. I've been there many times and the service and the ice cream is always wonderful! It's a go to place.

    One of my favorite ice cream places around and they're brand new. Staff is nice, they're clean inside, atmosphere matches industry, menu variety is plentiful, prices are reasonable, and they have an outside seating area.

    Very clean, cozy and friendly place! You can sit inside or outside. We come with my kids and my parents, they all love it! My son's favorite is Helva with iceream, my daughter loves chocolate chip cookie and strawbery flavors.

    One of the best ice cream haus. They have variety of flavors, all tastes great . They have gelato as well. Generous in portions . Staff are really friendly and accommodating. They also offer taste sampler if you want to try a certain flavor. I tried their new stuff, Affogato- so good, must try too. They have outside and indoor sittings. The place is really clean. Perfect for the treats . Highly recommended.

    Delicious Asian style, premium flavors. Have been here a few times now and it's always hard to pick…read morewhich flavor. My wife liked the Ube and fruity flavors the most. Not a huge place so there's some bench seating, but not s place to hang with a large group as it can get crowded and busy! Really good ice cream and a change of pace from the normal traditional flavors.

    AAPI month just ended, but this place is throwing it down! Filipino-pride runs through this…read morebusiness, and you can taste it in the quality and care of their ice creams! Francy's seems to be in their "viral" era still --- and for good reason. Upon entering, I saw a good number of people in the shoppe, and a plethora of traditional flavors --- and then the "inspired" flavors. Check my menu photo to see their options. For myself, I got the half/half --- which is two small scoops that comes out to 8 dollars and change (a bit PRICEY but I get it). For my two flavors, I got the Mango Graham and the Dubai Chocolate. Mango Graham is inspired by the Filipino dessert, Mango Float and it was delicious! Icy, creamy, fresh-tasting, and with that bit of graham --- it hit all the notes. The Dubai was amazing as well --- all those little chuck of the kataifi going through it. It wasn't "pistachio" foreword, which I appreciated. It was a delicate combo of pistachio and chocolate. Totally get what the hype is for. Even if you on the fence, try Francy's simply out of curiosity. You won't be disappointed.

    Was excited to try Spring House and went in early on a Saturday. The website hours, google hours,…read moreetc are all over the place and even the outside sign says something else. Not sure if opening is 4:00 or 4:30 but wanted to get there for A quick Happy Hour before our dinner reservation. Happy hour was excellent. Even the small bites were good. Temperature was off but gorgeous bar and seating as well as excellent drinks. Super snappy girl with blonde hair at the hostess stand should check her attitude but after Happy Hour we got seated upstairs which was lovely. Food was good. We started with the octopus and the Greek Salad. Octopus was sitting on a nice bed of hummus. Both excellent. Greek salad just okay. The peppers should be de-pitted and sliced but salad very fresh. Probably won't order again. For dinner we had the lasagna and the Capellacci. The lasagna was good but the temp wasn't even warm. I think the walk from the kitchen to upstairs might have been a factor? However the other dish was perfect. Both entrees were very good and plentiful. One thing I didn't understand is why can't the server bring bread until an order is placed? Sometimes I like to have a piece of bread while I review dinner options. Something the restaurant should look into. Enjoyed the beauty of the restaurant and will return for the outdoor patio when the weather gets nicer. After 9 months still some things to work out but enjoyed the visit overall.

    This was our third time dining here. I went down a star and gave it 4 stars this time instead of 5…read more The reasons: The lounge seating is all high top tables with bar stool seats without a back. The special trio of prosciutto tacos fell short. They were served on a large mound of salt and the taco shell was more of a waffle potato chip shell. The flavors didn't mesh well. The main shrimp dish had more of a Cacio de Pepe sauce as opposed to the cognac sauce the menu described. Lasagna and the gnocchetti cacio de pepe were very good and the shining star of the main course was the chicken Milanese which had a crispy outside and moist and tender with a citrusy dressing. The hazelnut gelato was delicious, it had a strong hazelnut flavor which we all loved. The pistachio crème brûlée could have had a little more pistachio flavor. Our server was great! She had good recommendations.
