    20. Pink Lady Rolled Ice Cream & 8. Chunky Monkey Rolled Ice Cream
    Nadeen C.

    This place is located in the heart of Chinatown. And also, in my opinion, a must try if you come to the city of Philadelphia. As soon as we entered, we were greeted by the staff, who answered any questions that we had about the menu. It's Self Seating, so you just have to find a seat and wait for your ice cream to be rolled. The ice cream rolling doesn't take too long. We were served right away. The vibe of Place was great, very welcoming . If we're ever back in the city, we'll definitely be back here again!

    I have been a fan of this place for years now. I have even gone out of my way to go into the city just to have a birthday treat! They know how to do rolled ice cream, obviously, but the flavor selections are really diverse and delicious. I keep meaning to try the tropical Miami mango one but I can't stop ordering the "Bankok" thai iced tea flavor with coconut and strawberries as a topping. If I'm hungry I'll add bananas too. I have never seen another place with that flavor for ice cream. There is a smattering of seating, can probably fit about 30 people if you squeeze in and get a chair. If it's nice out, you can just take a stroll if you find yourself there on a crowded day. There's a fantastic resin fish sculpture in the window that I like to look at. I don't know why but I really like to see it every time!

    A divey place that offers yummy deserts. Especially after a late dinner. We put our order in and sat down to wait for our order. As we were sitting there waiting for our rolled ice cream it became busier and busier. Before we knew it there was a line. This place was not a difficult place to find because it was on the way back to our hotel. It was a perfect spot because it was windy, cold and we just wanted to seek shelter for a little while and this was a perfect spot. Would we come here again, absolutely.

    Frozen Rolled Ice Cream is exactly what you'd crave on a hot summer's day- big portion of ice cream, with up to 3 toppings. --- Although it's not the cheapest option in terms of ice cream, Frozen Rolled Ice Cream in Chinatown knows what it's doing! With its vast selection of flavors and toppings to choose from, there's enough variations that'll make any kid and adult happy. Nothing too complicated, just pick the ice cream from the menu and choose up to 3 toppings. Then, they roll the ice cream in front of you and "chop" in the toppings as they're rolling. If you have any allergies, I'm not sure how well they clean the cold plates between orders. The restaurant has free WiFi, many seating tables to choose from, and it was very quiet. If I remember correctly, there are steps up into the store, just as a note for anyone with mobility issues. Our ice cream was ready in 5 minutes (but this would depend on the line) and I was happy with my cup! Overall, I recommend in case you're craving some quick ice cream in Chinatown!

    Love this place. One of the only few places to get frozen ice cream in the city. Service is always fast. There are several ice cream flavors to choose from and the price covers 3 add ins. The portions are very give. One cup is about 7-8 dollars including mix ins. One thing to consider is that the mix ins are actually mixed in there are drizzled or sprinkled on top. Overall the place is clean and fun to come for dessert after dinner. It is pretty small if you're coming with a big crowd.

    Personal creation- strawberry with Graham cracker, sweetened millk, pecans

    This place was packed on a soaking wet rainy night, it is popular for a reason! They have a lot of options but it's pretty simple like most ice cream spots- you can get a flavor roll with toppings combo or you can make your own. Mine was pretty easy to make- the strawberry plus sweetened milk, graham cracker, and pecans. Even when full they have the routine down to a science and the only slow downs are customers who can't figure out their order or who keep arguing with their kids. My order was made and ready in less than 10 minutes, with a great serving of ice cream to enjoy. There's some seating inside and it turns over pretty quickly but you may find it easier to grab and go. If you want a sweet treat that's not just another ice cream cone, definitely check this place out.

    Honestly probably the most delicious rolled ice cream I've ever had! The bad was creamy and perfect t and the fruit was sweet as well. The workers were very nice and quick and the shop was very cute and small. Be careful though there often really long lines. Definitely reccomend!

    Great prices and great value! This definitely hits the spot on a hot day! They have lots of options for ice cream bases and toppings as well. Very clean and spacious store. My favorite was the chunky monkey, but I would go again to try the other flavors

    It's really the variety here that I haven't seen at any other place. I have never had the option of Jasmine Tea rolled ice cream before. JASMINE TEA. And it genuinely tasted like jasmine tea. There's a huge menu of their pre-created items that you can then add more toppings to. I love that they set the foundation for you (in the form of an ice cream flavor AND some toppings) that then set the stage for you to make it your own. I added condensed milk, coconut flakes, and strawberries to mine and loved it. I will say that it was less creamy and more icy than I would have liked it to be, so maybe just a little too long on that magic ice cold frozen pad. I also found that there was less ice cream than usual in this little cup. I'm not sure why because I'm sure it's standardized, but I just wasn't sure if the cup I got was worth the $7-8 that it was. The ice cream was still perfectly enjoyable, though, and I savored each bite.

    Ehh. It wasn't impressive I ordered s'mores and my friend ordered oreo i love chocolate flavor so i always pick that one but this one, I barely tasted chocolate flavor. It was the worst chocolate I've ever had in fact. And its $7 ? Not worth it. I rather go to the store and buy processed commercial ice cream with cheaper cost.

    Came here while walking down China Town in Philadelphia on a very hot, humid day. We ended up grabbing two mango-banana smoothie's and it was amazing. Very very good. While there, there was a steady line of people getting their rolled ice cream. For those not in the know, there is a freezing cold plate. You select your ice cream and the ice cream concoction is poured onto the freezing cold plate. The ice cream "cook" (no idea what the official title is)... Will swirl your ice cream on the frozen plate. Almost like when you see a crepe being made. As the ice cream "cream" continues to be swirled and mixed together on the plate, it gets harder and more dense. Ultimately, it's pressed very thin on the plate and "scraped" into rolls. Really cool idea. The price for the smoothie was $5.75 each for a single size (large) and we felt it was a very good price and a very big large. Next visit back, we'll definitely give the the ice cream a shot.

    Smores, 8. Chunky Monkey Rolled Ice Cream
    Manu Oanh H.

    Honestly delish. Great on a hot day. Cools you off. Made right in front of you, super fast. You can add 3 toppings to the ice cream no extra charge. Chunky Monkey was too much banana flavor but still good. Highly recommend strawberry shortcake. The fresh fruit and ice cream was a great pair. LOL. Pretty clean place and good music was played.

    Chocolate Cheesecake.

    If you have never tried rolled icecream, you will have to try it. My husband and I split the chocolate cheesecake. You could get three toppings. We picked pecans, chocolate chips and chocolate syrup. Just FYI, it did taste like it had coconut in it which was a surprise. I wish I had known. I would have chosen another flavor. I did like that they had a wide assortment of flavors. Next time I will have to try the S'more. My four rating is for the good service I received.

    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 !!!
