Despite being an ice cream shop, it's surprisingly spacious with a decent amount of seating available. The ice cream was excellent. I especially appreciated that the flavors weren't overly sweet, which is exactly how I like my desserts. I highly recommend the Banana Foster flavor. It has real chunks of banana throughout and a subtle hint of rum that adds great flavor without being overpowering. Overall, it's a hidden gem that's definitely worth seeking out.

There usually is a line here so expect a wait for sure, but the line does not take too long to move by since the workers are pretty quick. The flavors are really interesting and different in a good way, the only con is that sometimes they will have a flavor and you may never see it again if it is not their usual flavor (I tried a almond crossoint flavored ice cream before and never seen it again sadly). You are allowed to get half scoops of two flavors to make up a single scoop, which I like because then you can mix and match. Definitely a spot to try out

Omg this is probably one of my favorite deserts I've ever had. It does not even seem like it's a…read moresnowball. I got the Cookie Monster snowball. It was their original droopy flavor, stuffed with vanilla ice cream and topped with whipped cream and Oreos. Wowwwwwww! The "droopy" flavor really is hard to explain, but it's so delicious. We stood in line for about 20 minutes. It was raining, but they had umbrellas at the front so I was able to shield myself from the rain. Really really really loveeeee this snowball. You 100% have to go just to experience it for yourself. The line is worth it.

We had to try Droopy's since it has such great social media posts. We went on Saturday around 5 and…read morewe had to wait approximately 30 minutes. The line was not as long as we've seen so I'm sure the wait time is longer. A great thing is that they supply large umbrellas to hold for shade. We all had different flavors and we all liked them. Their ice is super soft which I loved. I also liked that they weren't overly sweet. However, on the same note, I could barely taste Vanilla in my husband's Orchid Vanilla. The sizes are nice for the prices and there are a lot of flavors and different creative treats to choose from! My rating is 4 stars because it didn't make sense that they serve and take orders from the same small window. While I was placing my order, the girl was taking it, yelling at the workers what she was still waiting for and handing out other people's orders.

The lady working was really nice and answered all my questions about the funky named flavors. She even let me sample a couple. I got the pink squirrel- one of their cream flavors which is a mix of nectar and strawberry(?). It was a perfectly cold sweet treat. I'm still not too sure what nectar is but I agree, this cream flavor was good.

When you mix in that it is a timeless destination in Metairie, then it makes it all the more special. Sal's is quick, has a taste for just about any palate, and is super affordable. While the lines might look long, they go quickly and everybody's happy. So don't let the crowd be daunting to you and saunter up to the order window. Sizes from the very smallest to the very largest never run you more than a few bucks and the flavor combinations are endless. Service friendly and the atmosphere is joyful, so find a stump to have a seat and just enjoy. This is a place that is very special to my wife, who grew up just down the street, and who has spent many, many summer nights here. I was lucky enough to have her share Sal's with me and one sno-ball later, I was very happy. P.S. I still call them snow cones. Fight me.

First, one of the employees gave my young child an attitude, which was completely unnecessary. Then, instead of politely handing us our ice cream , he tossed the cup onto the counter. It was rude and unprofessional. Customer service matters just as much as the food. A smile and a little kindness go a long way, especially when interacting with families. Based on this experience, we won't be returning. I hope management addresses the customer service, because one employee can completely change the atmosphere of an otherwise great business.
