    This is a wonderful ice cream store that opened in our town a while ago. They have about 16-18 flavors and 20 different toppings. There are cones, cups and waffles options available in three sizes. Prices are cheaper than some of the other ice cream parlors. Other than ice cream, they also serve some coffee based drinks. [[HIGHLIGHT]]There's a standing table with some stalls and a small table inside the store. Rest of the seating space and tables are in front of the store, by W Madison ave.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] During our few visits, we tried the cotton candy and cookies & cream flavors. They were really creamy, no icy patches. Was excellent quality overall. The staff members were friendly each time, they quickly served the orders and did the checkout.

    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

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

    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.

    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 [[HIGHLIGHT]]the shop is spotless[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]. Will definitely come back!

    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. [[HIGHLIGHT]]They have outside and indoor sittings.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]The place is really clean.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Perfect for the treats . Highly recommended.

    Disappointing. No vegan ice cream even though it's on the website menu. I feel mislead. Don't go.

    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.

    Came here on a Sunday for happy hour. I really wanted to sit outside but as the weather is starting…read moreto get cooler it was a bit chilly. Plus the outdoor beer garden isn't open on Sundays, so we decided to sit inside at the bar. The bar is small - only about 7 or 8 seats but there are a couple tables in that area. The happy hour deal is great!! You get your choice of cocktail + a small mini appetizer for $10. I think there were about 4 or 5 cocktails to choose from and 4 apps, which are bite sized minis from a regular appetizer -- it's a great way to taste test what's on the menu. All of the food was excellent. The only dish I didn't love is the octopus but I can be pretty picky about that. Our bartender Shelton was cool. He chatted with us most of the time, gave us reccos and gave us 3 month aged homemade limoncello when we were finished. My only gripe was the owner -- it felt like he didn't want Shelton talking to us so it made the vibe a little weird. Overall, very cute place for date night inside or outside!! Tasty food and great drinks. All the servers were cool, too. And I think this is a historical site as well.

Not only is the food awesome - I ordered a ramen, plain hot dog, and halo-halo shaved ice (addictively good) - but bonus stars to the staff who were sooo sweet! The Hawaiian style shaved ice and home-made ice cream are top notch. The ice cream is rich and delicious, with some unique flavors, and the shaved ice is very fine - fluffy and evenly slushy in texture and sweetness, unlike the inferior versions where you run into bland chips of ice. The toppings are yum too. The ramen noodles are springy, settled in a savory light broth. For a non-prestige grade ramen, I have no complaints. I also want to acknowledge the lovely hospitality. My child was in a tantrum-y mood and went to sulk by himself in a corner. Seeing the pouty little grump in a small fit, the girls at the counter coaxed him over with ice cream and stickers, which he of course eagerly accepted, pleased by the attention and confection, and was soon back to his endearing self. So I really appreciated their extra kindness! This is a fab joint for a quick-casual or just a perfect sweet treat!
