The pandan was super rich in flavor and the coffee ice cream tasted like actual coffee. My family also got a Black Sesame, Pandan, Green Tea and Vanilla. Nothing too special with the Green Tea and Vanilla, but I heard raving reviews about the Black Sesame. This is also a nice little hangout spot with your friends after grabbing dinner. These service was quick; as we were leaving there was a line. Would definitely come back again!

The black sesame looked good but I didn't want to go bigger than a small so I could only get 2 flavors. Really nice that they have a restroom for customers!

I did a Google search of nearby gelato spots after having dinner at Stinking Rose. I found Lush…read moreGelato a block away from the restaurant and noticed that it was near where we parked on Columbus Ave. Not only was it on the way, but it was also directly in front of my car. Can't get any more synchronistic than that! I don't know how I missed Lush Gelato in the first place. I walked right by it and didn't even know it was right under my nose. We strolled into the storefront around 5:00pm, and we got into the queue right before a rush of people. I found that the line actually started on Columbus Ave. despite coming through the back entrance of the gelato shop. The place was a bit small and narrow, so they maximize the space with benches along the wall. They also offered benches outside. Service was quick, and the staff member who helped me was very friendly. I appreciated his approval of my selections, stating that they were his favorites too. We had recently went to Italy, so Lush gelato was everything I had hoped it would be. As soon as I saw the flavors I knew exactly the two I wanted without having to sample anything. I got the whiskey caramel and earl grey + chocolate covered cherries in a small cup. I was informed that the whiskey caramel flavor was boozy, and to which I replied, "Bring it. Both flavors were excellent, but admittedly the early grey + chocolate covered cherries was particularly divine. " The quality of the gelato was smooth and creamy.

I sampled a couple of their flavors to decide which flavor(s) I wanted to purchase. I selected the Ricotta Lemon Zest gelato. I had the options to have it in a cup or cone. I decided a cup because I full from the pizza. The cones are house made and smelled good! I selected the perfect flavor! The lemon zest was vibrant and refreshing. It had a good balance of tartness without being sour. The ricotta added a nice creaminess. It wasn't heavy. The citrus kept the cream light. The staff was friendly. There wasn't much interaction other than asking for samples, placing my order, and then paying. However, it was all pleasant. It is a small ice cream shop. There are two wooden benches against the wall to sit and eat your ice cream if you choose to do so. I would recommend trying this ice cream parlor and I would return again!

Unfortunately, since they were in ice cream carts outside on a very sunny day, it was served slightly melted. We got a regular cup (came smaller than most ice cream shops) of their pistachio and Strauss yogurt, both really delicious, but tell me why did it cost $15 for that??? I'm sure the fair played a part in the price inflation, but I don't think any ice cream I've ever had can justify that price and I LOVE ice cream. It's really good ice cream but extremely overvalued. Not any better that ice cream shops that serve that size for $5-$6.

Service was kind. Don't Stay for Breakfast: Disappointed by this one, was 1-dimensional and no better than any run-of-the-mill ice cream bar. It lacked the maple flavor I was looking for. The only highlight was the crunch from the waffle flakes. Pavlova: A significant step-up from the other dessert. Visually, the pavlova wrapped around the presentation of fruit is quite beautiful. The pavlova was light, airy, and had a nice sweetness. The fruit filling was decadent, and added variety to each bite.
