This is a review just for their ice cream, which can be summed up into: sweet, too sweet…read more I've tried 4 of their ice cream flavors now, and 2 of them have been a complete bust. The ones I didn't like: - The hazelnut just tasted like sugar, lacking any distinct flavor. - The yogurt lychee apricot tasted like yogurt plus sugar. I could barely taste any hint of lychee or apricot. The ones I thought were okay: - The strawberry was more like a sherbet. - The red velvet did not taste like red velvet, but I didn't find it too sweet at least. The cone they use also tastes like it's riddled with sugar. I actually didn't plan on coming here a second time, except that as I left, I saw a customer with a meringue disc on top of their ice cream, and I really wanted to try that as well. Two tips from me: 1. Turns out the meringue discs are free! How come it's not offered to every customer then? How come there's no sign for it? In any case, I'm letting you guys know now! If you want to spiff up your ice cream for free, ask for that meringue disc. 2. You get a cone + 1 scoop of ice cream for €2. If you want a cone + 2 scoops, it's €4..... Just buy 2 cones with 1 scoop of ice cream each then. I mean, if you don't want to, that's fine. But if they're not discounting the second scoop, then I'm getting a second cone, lol. Service-wise, I had a mixed experience. When I came yesterday, the person scooping the ice cream just did not care. However much they scooped the first time was however much the customer received... As a result, I saw some people with the tiniest scoops (like half the size of my single scoop)! Today, the person scooping the ice cream was a lot more diligent and competent. If the first scoop wasn't a lot, they'd scoop another smaller scoop so that every customer got roughly the same amount of ice cream. I'm sure not everyone pays attention to things like this, but I try to take note of small stuff from time to time. In this case, it's about making sure every customer can leave feeling like they're being treated the same. It's what sets the "I have hands" employees apart from the "I have hands and a brain" employees. Overall, I wasn't impressed with the ice cream, so I probably won't come back here, again.

Not the best ice cream I've had, but definitely a solid choice. I'm giving it 4 stars as some…read moreflavors are a major miss for me. For example, some ice cream flavors are really misleading. They're not really flavors at all, more like toppings. Whatever flavor I get is what I expect the ice cream itself to taste like, not what a few sparse chunks taste like. What I like to do is ask to try 2 flavors each time, then get the one I like more out of the 2. It's a nice way to eventually try out every flavor. One thing I'll give them extra kudos for is the lovely interior decor. I don't know exactly when it happened, but at some point they remodeled the place. It's basically a pink paradise now. I love it! P.S. The address on Yelp for this location is currently wrong. Luckily it's just one block over. Check the website for the correct address. P.P.S. The business hours on Yelp are also very wrong. Check their website for the most up to date hours.

I was wandering around the Eindhoven city center when I noticed several people walking by with cones and decided that ice cream sounded especially nice. I followed the trail until I came upon Ijssalon Bastani at the end of the block. There were friend groups and families enjoying the frozen treats or deciding what to order. With dairy and non-dairy options, flavors fruity and chocolatey, and a few different choices of cones, there's doubtless something for everyone. I went with the playful (and popular) Pornstar Martini, which featured creamy vanilla gelato with a tart and tropical ribbon of passion fruit. It was really tasty. Great service, too!

The density was very different from gelato, more aerated and soft, really nice. The citroen appeared to be very popular with the other customers, too. My son had the stracciatella, which he loved. I tried, but didn't like the flavor, couldn't describe what it was- maybe something else added instead of vanilla? Husband had nougatel, which I also wasn't fond of, but almond nougat has never been something I enjoyed. I would gladly go back though, they had a great variety of flavors, and the employees were very sweet.

On my visit I met up with some colleagues for dinner and we decided to go for the sharing approach. There are a lot of nice menu options to choose from if you go this route, so get out there and explore! Definitely start with the antipasti board. It contains a nice selection of different salamis and prosciutto ,as well as several different types of cheeses - including one that is spicy and another that is "drunken" (infused with wine). It also includes some baby pickles and Mediterranean vegetables. Delicious! We also tried the beef tenderloin with mushrooms and a red wine sauce for dipping. Cooked perfectly, these little cuts of beef almost dissolve in your mouth. The lamb chops are also a very good choice and come with tzatziki and tomato. Finally, be sure to try the beef stew - it tasted amazing. We added a small salad and fries to nibble on while we enjoyed all these dishes. For dessert, I had the chocolate cake/mousse/ice cream combo. If you are a chocolate lover then this is your choice for dessert. You won't be disappointed. Service was good - our server was nice and had our food and wine out pretty quickly. My only recommendation to them is to improve on their cocktail selection. They promote a bar that offers wine, specialty beers and liqueurs - but when I asked about cocktails they only had Mojitos to offer me. Fortunately, I love Mojitos so it was a win - but for someone who is seeking something different they may be disappointed. Maybe this is something that will improve over time. Overall, a really nice experience. I love the relaxed atmosphere here and the food is very good. I highly recommend it!

The Mahicheh (lamb chop) was absolutely tender and very delicious. They serve two types of rice, one with saffron and mulberries, the other with carrots and raisins - both done nicely. We had the mantu and mirzaghasemi as appetizers; both were good. We tried 3 of the kebabs too. Not bad, but strongly outplayed by the other dishes.  They have a lovely house bread that one should not miss! The yoghurt-and-shallot side dish was excellent. I didn't like the house yoghurt soda much though.  We had the walnut ice cream and the saffron ice cream for dessert. Both were prepared well and came in big portions. The cardamom tea and the mint tea were great. So we ended at a high. Overall, delicious meals and a very pleasant experience. I would definitely go back to have more Mahiche and try the stews.
