I have zero complaints about this location. I've been multiple times and I've always been served with a smile! I truly think Jeni's tastes better at the scoop shop... dunno why. It's just so good. Maybe it's the smell of freshly-baked waffle cones? Whatever the reason, I'll return to this location even if parking is tough because the service is so good! Currently crushing on House Coffee and Queen Charlotte Sponge cake.
Sunday funday after dinner treat for the family. They changed their menu often so it was hard for the girls to decide. They picked birthday cake with sprinkles and one picked strawberry but didn't like the taste so they gladly opted out for a banana flavor instead. I got the brown butter almond and gooey butter cake, the others chose different flavors. It was very crowded but not overwhelming because they also have outdoor seating. Try it you will love it
The Jeni's on the Rice campus is super busy, but the line moves quick! I tried the Gooey Buttercake (most popular flavor) and the Tropical Bloom (mandarin orange, kiwi, passion fruit). The Tropical Bloom was sooooo good! Amazing! It has a tang and tastes better and better the more you eat it! The Gooey Buttercake is also quite nice! We loved the Tropical Bloom so much we bought a pint to bring home!! There also is indoor and outdoor seating with umbrellas! The staff at this location is also very friendly and helpful!

New location in Rice village! If you're a Rice student make sure to bring your ID for a really good student discount ($9 to $6 for a small). No matter how cold it is, I'll always be in the mood for a good ice cream. Waffle cones here are superb, definitely recommend getting in a cone. A lot of interesting flavors as well as seasonal ones. I love the crunchy textures that they have in the ice cream. A little pricey without the discount but a small size comes with 2 scoops it's so worth. Our scooper was very knowledgeable about the flavors and patient with our sampling. Seating is a bit small but they're open pretty late!
I like that Jeni's offers half scoops. We ended up doing the 3 half scoops. The dark chocolate was great.
Some people are cookie people, cake people, I definitely think I am an ice cream person. Post dinner treat of choice is ice cream, usually because Houston has so many options for it. This jeni's is a pleasant addition to rice village. As usual cute and clean inside; and always smells delicious.
I really like the flavors at Jeni's, and I got the blackout chocolate cake and the goat cheese and cherries flavors. I like how cute it is inside too and how it's located in Rice Village, so you can grab your ice cream and walk around, which is what we did. The service was great because he explained every flavor we sampled to us and was very kind. I like their little high top tables inside where you can also sit and eat by the windows and people watch. My only qualm is that the 2 half scoops of ice cream in a cup was $8 which I think is super overpriced. Other ice cream places that are fancy have it priced for around $5 or $6, which feels a lot more fair for the quantity you get.
This is our go to spot when we're craving ice cream! Their flavors are just incredible, and the service is top notch. They're so generous with letting you try their different flavors since they're all so unique. And their waffle cones and waffle bowls are the tastiest that I've ever had! I know it's a bit expensive for ice cream, but I promise it's worth it!
New location in rice village! It always smells so lovely inside. I've been a big fan of Jeni's for a long time. Their flavors do not disappoint. I always go for the classic brown butter brittle and this time I got the double dough which was oh so yummy. They have an outdoor patio with seating outside as well. Staff were kind and nice! There's a free 2 hour parking garage nearby that's convenient.
I have been waiting for this location to open and was thrilled and surprised to find that it was! The staff were extremely friendly and helpful and explained that their official opening was in a few weeks. For not being fully open, they were extremely well set up and ran extremely smoothly. The interior was decorated and spacious and cute. And the ice cream was exactly what I expected- delicious! I ordered the dark chocolate and butter cake flavors and the texture and taste were perfect and complementary! I loved the to go containers and the little waffle cone piece placed on top! Looking forward to many more trips there!
One of my favorite places to get ice cream around Houston. They have lots of flavors and I love the texture of the ice cream, very creamy and thick. Great service and clean and I spot that opens up late. I highly recommend I would come back.
Free samples! Service very nice! Ice cream so creamy yummy-o! Not your average schemaverage flavors! Be sure to sign up for their club so you can earn free stuff! Plenty of sitting inside or outside on patio. Street parking if ur lucky, if not the parking garage (2hours and less free) closeby.
Happy Birthday from Jeni's Splendid Ice Cream. First tried Jeni's Splendid Ice Cream at a Yelp Elite Week. Marketing works because this is my to go ice cream spot in Rice Village (although I do love the porch and rocking chairs at the Montrose location on Westheimer.) Not sure what to get, try a sample or two or three. Love how they serve the samples on little silver spoons. Better for the environment. Sign up for their email blasts and rewards program. Latest visit, I scored a waffle bowl filled with two scoops of my favorites. Brambleberry crips and brown butter almond brittle. Like a pie à la mode with a decadent brittle topping. So yummy! Parking was easy (which does not always happen in Rice Village.) A nice birthday treat after dinner at Torchy's with my friend Tiffany. Celebrate life with a sweet treat. read more

Stopped in since it was so hot today. They're pretty nice about allowing you to sample flavors. I did the two half scoop option which is more than enough. The ice cream texture was perfect! The only thing I didn't love was the cone. While the delicious aroma hits you as soon as you open the door. They were very salty; which gave an off aftertaste. read more

Thanks for your feedback, Valencia! We're glad you enjoyed the ice…
Had to wait in a line when we walked over after dinner at Coppa Osteria, because everyone loves Jeni's... but it moved quickly. Jeni's never disappoints. The ice cream is such high quality. I always try something new if I can but my go-to is brambleberry crisp which is very hard to beat!! read more

Jeni's splended icecream opened a new location in Rice Village and they had a promotion for 4 free scoops and a waffle cone/bowl. I waited in line for about an hour and a half but honestly it was worth it. They had the summer seasonal flavors available a day before every other location. Once you get inside, they allow you to sample any flavor before opening. I got the toasted s'mores, brown butter almond brittle, gooey butter cake, and honey vanilla bean. They gave me very big scoops of each one that I basically made this ice cream run my dinner. My favorite was the gooey butter cake. It's a cream cheese ice cream with crumbles of vanilla cake and caramel butterscotch swirl. My second favorite was the brown butter almond brittle, it's basically the candy crushed into buttercream ice cream. There's funny chunks of almond brittle throughout that gives it a lightly crunchy texture. The toasted s'mores is one of their summer seasonal flavors. It's a toasty vanilla bean marshmallow ice cream with gooey milk chocolate and graham crackers. The honey vanilla bean is a classic flavor that gives a nice change from the more salty flavors. read more
