    Blackberry (mora) and corn (elote) ice cream ($3.75)
    Stephanie W.

    Vibes: local, old-timey gem, the kind where you're drawn in by curiosity with the line out the door and people coming out with ice cream cones as well as mango roses and intriguing chamoyadas The menu: beyond the 20+ flavors of ice cream, also crepes, icy drinks, shaved ice, and savory snacks (ex. chicharrones, loaded potatoes) Tasting notes on my ice cream cone: -Ice cream itself: very soft and pliable, more icy than rich and creamy; two scoops + waffle cone was $3.75 -Elote: first impression is actually cinnamon-y cereal milk, and then the sweetness of the corn comes afterwards; kernels are dehydrated and sprinkled throughout -Mora: more floral than fruity, would not have guessed blackberry if not for the characteristic seeds, nonetheless complementary to the elote in flavor Other thoughts: -The girl who helped us was kind and willing to explain the different drinks on the menu (my friend and I were looking at the regular vs. special chamoyada and the diabolito) -One table inside and a bench outside for seating Will be back for: more ice cream, the piña colada served in a pineapple, and of course the chamoyada! Then I'll get around to the savory stuff!

    I came here on a Saturday night, and there was a decent amount of people there despite the fact that it was a very cold and windy night. It's a small store, and it was very hard to find. I believe the name on the store front said "Bambino" instead of "El Pueblo;" hence why it was very hard to find. Parking is your typical city parking... we were able to find street parking a street over. There is only one sitting area that can sit about 10 people. No bathrooms, and the minimum for card was $10 I believe. I got an elote ($2.50) and chamoyada especial ($6). The chamoyada especial came with mango chunks and a tamarind straw. The elote was pretty flavorful and good! The chamoyada was good as well. My only complaint about it is that the straw with the tamarind was too small, so you can't get the mango chunks with it. They should use a bigger hole straw with the chamoyada especial.

    Finally a place that makes the perfect mangonada, that's all I come for! So good, service is quick and fast. It's right on the corner sometimes it may be hard to find parking! Definitely my to go place though!

    tl;dr: The price is right and the ice cream is delicious! Will be back to try more flavors. We ordered the mango and cream and the blackberry (mora) flavors. The lady behind the counter was nice enough to allow us to sample a few flavors. The flavors themselves seem intriguing -- some that I noticed for next time are corn, rice pudding, and guava and cream. What I really liked about the ice cream was that it wasn't cloyingly sweet. The "cream" part of mangoes and cream was almost tangy, like there was goat's milk in it. The two small ice creams came out to $3.50 total, which I think is a steal considering the unique flavors. Tips: Cash under $10, and limited seating.

    My very first chamoyada! Fresh pineapple and mango with a sweet and sour sauce, chili and tamarind stick. So delish...and different!

    We LOVE it here! This is our best friend on a hot day! And it's where I had my first chamoyada! Yum! Love the balanced combo of the sweet mango, the salty tamarind stick with the heat of the chili. So good! So, so good!! I don't have another one to compare it to, but I can't imagine it gets any better than this one! This small corner shop near the Italian Market which is now called Bambino offers hispanic snacks such as chips and tamales, fruit smoothies, as well as a variety of water-ice flavors, and a ton of unique ice cream flavors. On our last visit our party ordered rainbow and lime ice, strawberry cheesecake and pineapple cream ice cream and I asked the kind girl behind the counter to mix me up a sugar free smoothie (they add sugar to their fruit smoothies normally) of just blended pineapple, coconut and mango with ice. Totally hit the spot on a summer day! Prices are very reasonable and they do accept cards for anything over $10. It can get crammed inside and service can be a tad slow especially when they're mixing up smoothies. Stay patience and consider taking a seat on the bench outside if it gets too stuffy inside. Definitely a different water-ice/ice cream experience! *There's one 30 min loading zone out front if you're lucky! *It's located next to BYO Mole Poblano which is delish! Have dinner there then come here for dessert?!

    Mangonada (chamoyada)

    I found this hidden gem about a month ago . I drove by this place for years and never knew they made mangonada here . So one day I drove by again and I seen a picture they've posted outside their store on the wall . I immediately pulled over to stopped in . I'm so happy to find a place so close to home that makes it . The first time they've made it for me it was just mango slushy with chamoy and chili powder . Until I came back a second time and asked if they make it with mango and they said yes just a dollar more for mango . I didn't mind . The drink is so good . Very refreshing on a hot day but I don't mind what day I have it . If you ever had the Mexican mango lollipop it taste just like that except the fresher version . The ladies at the counter are really nice . They also have ice cream , and they also make other drinks as well . I've also tried their pineapplenada a few years back during the Italian market festival and that taste good as well . Definitely would be coming back !

    It's definitely a toss up of a question, but I think Jeni's has the best ice cream in the city…read more With a basic vanilla that hits that hard, everything else is bound to be good. I've been a regular at Jeni's for some time now. This location operates on a smaller plot of land for sure, but the line moves quickly, because of a super helpful, super friendly set of staff. Note, there's a good chance that you'll be eating your ice cream outside on the side walk, but honestly it won't be too long before it's gone anyways. Flavors are reliable and on-point. Prices have fluctuated for sure over the years, but if you're coming with a group, I'd recommend the Story, to be able to try as many of their excellent flavors as you can. Plus, it's cheaper per scoop than all other options. My only knock is that they used to be way more adventurous in the past than they are now. I remember way back when they had an everything bagel flavor... that literally was spot on. Like so much so that it was not a good ice cream flavor because it was too accurate. Wish they had that same adventuring spirit again, but that's no knock to the quality of this local establishment.

    Stopped in here on the walk back to a friend's apartment and got a few pints to take with us…read more Butter Cream Birthday Cake, Gren Mint Chip and Goat Cheese with Red Cherries. All were great, but if I had to choose just one, it's the Goat Cheese with Red Cherries. OMG. The Bomb !!!
