The girl working (I didn't catch her name) was really nice and even let me sample their pumpkin hard ice cream and Italian ice before deciding what I wanted, which I really appreciated.

Other than that, I really enjoyed the experience and would definitely come back for another pumpkin bowl!

When I visited, it was pretty quiet, and the staff appeared to be local high school students who were friendly and kept things moving smoothly. I tried the peach ice cream. It was good, though it didn't particularly stand out compared to some other peach ice creams I've had. Still, it satisfied the craving and was enjoyable enough. One thing I liked was that the setup feels well suited for groups. With a variety of frozen treats and a laid-back atmosphere, it's the kind of place where everyone can find something they enjoy. Overall, a solid neighborhood ice cream shop that's worth keeping in mind when you're in the mood for a sweet treat.

I am writing this because we have hired this ice cream truck for our charity event for two years in…read morea row. While our first experience was positive (tasty and had even given us a charitable discount), this year was incredibly disappointing. We booked the truck for 1.5 hours to support a fundraiser for the American Cancer Society. Due to lower-than-anticipated turnout, attendees stopped purchasing ice cream around the 45-minute mark. Despite us having booked the truck for the full 1.5 hours, the operator decided to leave early on his own accord without asking our input on it. When it came time to settle the payment, we had to pull funds directly from our charity collections to pay the full booking fee (which is fine except communication with this company grew increasingly difficult and we only had a check for the full time amount not knowing if his charity event fee would be lower then the listed price). We asked if we could pay at a later date since we were only at the half time mark, but the operator insisted on being paid immediately, telling us that he would 'remember' to give us a break next time. The day after the event, we reached out to see if he would honor that 'break' by applying the 45 minutes he didn't work toward a future Teacher Appreciation Luncheon (where he would still be making money from individual sales). He refused, insisting that because we booked two time blocks, we must pay for both, even though he chose to leave our event early. It is disheartening to see a vendor take funds directly out of a charity's pocket and then refuse to honor their word regarding a future credit. We will not be using this service again.

The food is still great. We had scallops, chorizo, brussels sprouts, and a flounder ceviche special. Everything was delicious. The ceviche in particular stood out -- fresh, well-portioned, and nicely "cooked" in lime juice. The sangria is still a highlight too. A big carafe, no ice watering it down, served with glasses full of fruit. The problem is the service. They had two servers and one bus person, and it showed. Everyone seemed to be scrambling, and it was hard to get a moment of attention to ask for anything or even be heard. Our food came out in pieces -- three items, then a long delay, then another. The last dish, calamari, never came. When I tried to tell the waiter we didn't want it anymore if it was forgotten, he didn't listen and insisted on bringing it anyway. We ended up waiting even longer, which just made the experience more frustrating. To top it off, they're now adding an operating/service fee (around 3-4%), which wasn't clearly communicated and just showed up on the bill. It's disappointing because the food is still very good, but the service issues -- and now the added fees -- are taking away from the experience. After this visit, we'll think twice before coming back.
