    Super cute ice cream shop in Somerville! They have a good selection of flavors but it's not an extensive menu. I had the cookie doh and really enjoyed it. The scoop was a generous portion. I would definitely return!

    Medium Ice Cream in Waffle Cone: Butter Pecan (bottom) and Salty Pumpkin Pretzel (top)
    Huda S.

    Came in on a Friday night when visiting family in the area. It's one of the few dessert spots open till 10PM on Fridays. While there were a few other dessert options, we decided to check this place out for the variety. The dessert shop is located in a small nook where pedestrians can walk. It's perpendicular to the Main Street that runs through downtown Somerville, which is where you'd park to get here. As soon as we walked in, the decorations were the first thing that stood out to us. While we could tell the interior of the building wasn't the newest or most contemporary, the decor, wallpaper, and seating did a great job to create nice ambiance. The menu offers quite a variety of items ranging from waffles on a stick, to standard ice cream scoops, to donut ice cream sandwiches. For the ice cream, there are both "Premium" and "Signature" flavors offered. Either variety is available in a cup or cone. However, only "Signature" flavors are allowed to be chosen for cookie, donut, or waffle sandwiches. While I was intrigued by the waffle option, a few of the "Premium" ice cream flavors stood out to me. The flavor variety here outweighed my desire to try the waffle. I went for the medium size ice cream, which allows you to choose two flavors. I went for Salty Pumpkin Pretzel and Butter Pecan in a waffle cone. My cousin had went for a cookie sandwich, which comes standard with chocolate chip cookies. While it sounded delicious, the cookies are very thin. I did appreciate that the sandwich had a generous amount of ice cream in it. However, the huge scoop of ice cream and very thin cookies create a very unproportional ratio for holding an ice cream sandwich. It crumbles and becomes a mess very soon after biting into it. In terms of quality and flavor, I was very happy with both flavors of ice cream I received. My medium size in a waffle cone cost about 9 dollars. While that is a bit pricey for ice cream, that unfortunately seems to be the standard nowadays for most dessert places. I was at least happy to get a generous ice cream portion with very high quality ingredients and flavor. Overall, I enjoyed this place a lot. They offer a wide variety of items for people with varying dessert preferences. While I don't frequent this area a ton, I'd pay it another visit if I was in the area again.

    This place is a ray of sunshine, a burst of happiness and just covered in pink and flamingos. I never got a chance to see the inside as I've only learned they were in that little promenade off of Main St in Somerville recently, but I am pretty sold on this place for both sweet treats and healthy bites. Since Covid, they are only doing outdoor seating, to go and local delivery (I am not 100% sure if delivery is always an option) and you even order at the walk up window. It's pretty ideal if you've been avoiding new and even your favorite places because you aren't sure how well you'll be able to social distance. I've gotten an amazing Acai bowl that filled me up and then had some left over for a snack later on. I cannot remember its name but it had a lot of coconut, and pineapple and the acai base. It was so tasty and I chatted with the owner Amy about how their açai is not loaded with as much sugar as many other places (because of something that I feel silly for not remembering now) but it made me feel a lot better about the devouring the bowl. In addition to healthy snacks, their ice cream is out of this world. Seriously! I've tried the strawberries and cream, coffee and chocolate as part of their ice cream cookie sandwich box and it's deliciously creamy. I'm seriously in love with this place and would recommend a stop here when perusing Somerville.

    Ice cream is high quality and HUGE variety whether you love ice cream, complex sundaes, smoothies or waffle covered in your current obsessions. There is a good amount of seating inside and outside. No samples and staff is still functioning like we are in the thick of a pandemic (behind a wall). It was challenging to see flavor options, crowd management is a problem and there's no photos of the treats. You need to choose on a hope and a dream and if you're lucky it's tasty and exactly what you hoped for.

    Came here for some treats and everyone enjoyed everything! What we got: Original hot chocolate Original waffle wands Warm brownie sundae Strawberry shortcake The original hot chocolate was rich and chocolatey, the wands were fluffy and had a bit of cinnamon which we enjoyed, and the warm brownie sundae and strawberry shortcake were so yummy! From the pictures, you can see that they piled the strawberry shortcake to the utmost top!

    Such a fun spot in Downtown Somerville! You can definitely pop in for a cup or cone of ice cream (they have a bunch of unique flavors), but they also make sundaes and ice cream sandwiches with cookies or donuts! They have a variety of flavored hot chocolates and waffle wands. The waffle was so soft and buttery, I got mine topped with Nutella and their chocolate chip cookie crumble; really yummy! All Instagram worthy stuff. There are a few small tables inside but I imagine the best way to enjoy their desserts is walking along main street or sitting outside on a bench. Make sure you check them out if you're in the area! The owners are so nice and personable, they are clearly happy to be serving their customers and the community.

    strawberry shortcake sundae!
    Shirley C.

    Such a welcomed addition to downtown Somerville! Here's the scoop. There's something for everyone at Fresh Tiki, including those who gotta keep it dairy-free. The extensive menu ranges from smoothies, acai + pitaya bowls, frozen yogurt, ice cream sandwiches to ice cream sundaes - you name it, they have it. We stopped in after dinner and ordered an array of ice cream treats. You'll have to pay them a visit if you wanna see their ice cream flavors for the day. It's artisanal and made in small batches after all. The orange dream ice cream was a delight but the strawberry shortcake sundae was divine... and whimsical! For a few bucks more, you can even get the sundaes in "family size" to share. Creamy vanilla ice cream with fresh strawberries (not the syrupy stuff) and fresh shortcake topped with a mountain of whipped cream. Holy moly. You can taste the love and perfection that goes into their ice cream creations. Well worth the visit!

    Smoothie time....

    Popped in for some smoothies while enjoying some music on Division Street on Memorial Day.... They have a good variety of offerings so we went with a strawberry banana and a mango banana. We enjoyed the drinks... they are a little pricey but I guess it's in line with what other shops like this offer.... I'd like to visit again and try out one of their fresh fruit bowls....

    I wish I could give more than 5 stars! Not only is this place unlike anywhere around, their unique and incredible ice cream flavors and dessert concepts are simple amazing!!! I love love love the donut ice cream sandwich (which is made with fresh donuts from a local bakery). The attention to detail with every scoop is just impressive. Not only is the food beautiful, but the decor and atmosphere of this spot is totally instagrammable! This place is a MUST go!

    Ice cream (not labeled)
    Allie D.

    Great place to go for a quick ice cream run! It looked like they had a variety of things (ice cream, pudding, acai bowls) but we were just craving ice cream. They have about 10 flavors of each type of ice cream, dairy and non-dairy (vegan), and they were delicious! They didn't advertise sampling flavors but I'm sure you could. The thing that is best about this place is the AMBIANCE. Seriously so great, feels like you're at the beach! I would love to come back just because of this, and also to try the other food items they have to offer.

    Espresso Hot Chocolate
    Brittany N.

    We love all things Fresh Tiki! The owners are such friendly and fun people and bring great energy to division street. In the winter they have over the top hot chocolate flavors and always introducing fun new items like the flamingo themed drink on girls night out. Amazing place in town to just grab a scoop of ice cream too! Highly recommend.

    Our table with our sundaes!

    When walking into Fresh, you can feel the tropical atmosphere with the images of flamingos everywhere. The sounds, smells, and conversations fill the space located on Division Street and waft out onto the sidewalk during the warmer months. The service is impeccable and you are always greeted with a smile. Even on days where the line may be longer, the wait is worth it. Did I mention the food yet? The ice cream is some of the best I've had (and I'm normally a Häagen-Dazs/Dairy Queen type person! Lol) Their waffle sticks are also delicious and I highly recommend trying one! Kudos to the owners for creating a little "island vacation" in Somerville! Will be back when I visit NJ again!

    While visiting New Jersey recently I wanted to go somewhere I couldn't go to back home . That's…read morealways the goal to try out new places . So upon doing my research I came across this restaurant. Now of course upon reading reviews everyone said to get there early because the line can get long especially on a Saturday and Sunday morning. So we arrived around 8:30 on Saturday and we were seated right away because it was only two of us . The service was excellent we were seated right away . Our waiter came out and gave us the rundown of the menu . They had a promo menu because of the Devil Wears Prada movie . I did get a specialty non alcoholic drink from the menu which was excellent. We ordered the French toast and the avocado toast with scrambled eggs and it came with smoked salmon on sourdough bread . The French toast was so good and moist you didn't even need to add additional syrup . The food was delicious and the portion sizes are perfect . The restaurant is cozy so if you have a big party make reservations. But you won't be disappointed I can't wait to visit Brunch by De Martino again whenever I come back to New Jersey . Please check them out you won't regret it .

    My family and I have been supporting the Martino's Cuban Restaurant family restaurants for years,…read moregoing back to the original Martino's from his dad's side (which we truly miss). So coming here carries a bit of nostalgia for us. This concept feels very different from the original. It's definitely a more modern, upscale take. Portions are smaller, prices are higher, and the menu feels more elevated with a mix of Cuban-inspired and American flavors rather than strictly traditional Cuban comfort food. That said, the food is genuinely very good. The Cuban sandwich was easily one of the best we've had in New Jersey. Unlike many places that mostly use ham with a thin layer of pork, this one had thick, flavorful pieces of pork that made it feel much more authentic. A few other favorites: - The tostones with guacamole were a great starter. - Their chocolate latte used to be one of our favorites (sadly it seems to have been replaced by a raspberry chocolate version, which wasn't for us). - The seasonal pumpkin iced latte was excellent. - The strawberry banana waffles were more than enough to share. - The scrambled eggs and thick-cut bacon were fresh and delicious. We spent about $140 for breakfast for a family of four, so it's definitely on the pricier side, but it felt fitting for a special occasion like Mother's Day. A heads-up: reservations are only accepted for parties of six or more, so smaller groups are first come, first served. On Mother's Day, we waited about an hour after arriving at 8:30 AM, but their digital waitlist system made it easy to track our place in line while running errands nearby. Do we miss the old Martino's? Absolutely. The larger portions and casual family feel were special to us. But this restaurant offers something different--more polished, more curated, and still very enjoyable. I'd recommend it for brunch dates, family celebrations, or when you want to treat yourself.

Breakfast is definitely where they stand out. The freshly squeezed orange juice is to die for and always a highlight, 10/10. I've tried lunch a few times and it's just okay. The turkey BLT and regular turkey sandwich were a little dry, mostly the turkey itself. Nothing terrible, just not something I'd go out of my way for again. The chicken soup was really good though and I would order that again. Overall I'd still recommend it, especially for breakfast.

Each and every one has impressed me - the breakfast chicharrones especially! I'd post pictures but I didn't remember before eating to take any! Service is fantastic as well. The servers are attentive, even with how busy it always is, and sweeter than the powdered sugar on my pancakes. Really set a great atmosphere and experience! Additionally, they know how to make coffee GOOD. So if you are a coffee snob, they know how to pull a shot and keep it fresh. Honestly, this place is a 5/5 on all fronts for me. Great service, fantastic food, and good atmosphere make this a diner that's a cut above. Hopefully I'll remember to check-in when I'm here, since I think that's going to be often!
