    I'd rather have this than candy for Halloween anyway!
    Amy Lauren S.

    I'm glad Jeni's now has a location in Mount Pleasant Towne Center, with tons of parking and conveniently located near some of my favorite stores. Jeni's always has a great selection of gourmet ice cream flavors, including seasonal options. If you sign up for their rewards system and download the app, you receive a 3-scoop special to use on your birthday or in the four weeks following it. I like that you have four weeks to use the birthday reward. The Gooey Butter Cake is one of my favorite flavors, and on my last visit, I also tried the Cookies and Cream and the Miso Butterscotch Brownie, a seasonal variety. The three paired well together, although Cookies and Cream is probably the safest option if you're not sure what kind of ice cream you want. You can try samples as well, and the workers are patient. If you ask, they'll recommend combinations- and the menu also has a few combos listed. I've never had a scoop of Jeni's that I didn't like, though. This Jeni's is super small, with no indoor seating. The few tables outside go quickly, but if you walk around Towne Center, you'll find other benches and spots to sit to enjoy your ice cream.

    This was my first time at Jeni's and it won't be my last! This ice cream is incredibly creamy and a variety of unique and rich flavors. I tried the salted peanut butter with chocolate flecks and brown butter almond brittle. The homemade pieces of waffle cone were crispy, sweet and a nice touch. These were both recommended by the friendly and helpful staff. The interior is for counter service only but the exterior has a few tables to sit and enjoy.

    We stopped for ice cream after a day at the beach and Jenj's hit the spot. We loved tasting the different flavor concoctions. A small is 2 1/2 scoops so you can choose 2 flavors which was great. My son got the trusty mint chocolate chip (both scoops), my daughter had the honey vanilla and salted caramel. I got gooey butter cake and goat cheese and cherries. Hubs got wild berry lavender and something with rhubarb. Ice cream was delicious, creamy, with the flavors really coming through. Must try if craving ice cream.

    I'm an ice cream buff, but that also makes me picky. Do yourself a favor and try Jeni's Splendid Ice Cream. I went with 3 others, and none of us had been to a Jeni's before. The store (in Mt. Pleasant) was small, enough room for the tubs of ice cream in the display freezers, a rest room, and a stand up area. Outside were tables and chairs under umbrellas, normally the place where you'd enjoy your choices, but it was raining so we stayed indoors. Doing so gave us a chance to chat with the 2 employees, they were both personable, fun, and boosters of Jeni's. Spending time with them was almost as enjoyable as the ice cream. Almost. First of all, Jeni's comes in a waffle cone or waffle cup. We all chose cups. Then comes the hard part - which 3 flavors to choose? I ended up with Sparkling Cherry Pie, Lemon and Blueberry, and Coffee with Cream and Sugar. As I dug my spoon in, I tasted the magic of Jeni's. The flavors are fresh and clean, they aren't cloyingly sweet, and they melted wonderfully in my mouth, creamy and full of essence. The magic isn't only in the individual flavors, although the lemon was the best I've had, but in the pairings and combos. The depth and richness of the blueberry coupled with the slightly astringent lemon was perfect. The waffle is a welcome compliment to the ice cream. It's not too sweet, it holds up well, and it cradles the last bit of now-melted ice cream for the last bite. I'm already scheming my next set of choices.

    Jeni's ice cream in Mt. P. is delicious! My personal favorite was the lavender ice cream! The cozy ice cream parlor displays signs to I form you of each ice cream they are serving. They have the calories listed on a board behind the counter, which is helpful. The girls behind the counter were very nice and helpful. I tried two ice creams before I made my choice and was met with a smile each time I asked for a sample.

    Signature flight of honey Vanilla, gooey butter cake, and Texas sheet cake.

    The smell alone will surely put you in the best mood! The staff even more pleasant. A signature 3 scoop will then finish your day off. Jenis ice cream never disappoints and is my choice for a sweet indulgence when I allow myself!

    After Italian at Grimaldis we decided on ice cream. Really good ice cream and the staff were very nice. Give it a try.

    Scotty & Yelp & Jeni's Splendid Ice Cream THANKS for the summertime treat! We tried to go one night after dinner but it happened to be their special opening. Line was way too long. Tried another day and we walked in and they greeted us immediately. Super nice staff. So nice that she gave me another full cone because the top of the mountain fell on the floor. So good almost forgot to get a picture my bad, I actually did forget to take a shot of my waffle cone. They have a large display sign with the flavors. Super good Brown butter almond, PNut butter with chocolate chips, and chocolate. Melted quicker than the Witch on Wizard of Oz. Yes as others have said the scoops are small but the awesomeness of their creamy yummy flavors made up for it. I haven't been to downtown location so I have nothing to compare it to. No seating inside or out so grab your deliciousness & jump in the car and Master Blaster the AC. Plenty of parking, just opened so very clean & nice decor. Too bad about no seating. Maybe they can work that out. Regardless, I will be coming back to visit!

    Stopped by this ice cream store with my three kiddos today. We tried a few flavors, but the Gooey Butter Cake was our very favorite! The gals working were a little shy maybe, but kind:). The store was very cute! I'd recommend bigger scoops, as others have said... but otherwise was very pleased!

    Jenis is one of our favorite spots, always delicious and consistent! The scoopers always know the flavor components of each flavor and are always so happy to let you taste flavors! Such a great spot for a summer scoop! Pro tip: Make sure to check out their seasonal flavors!!

    Steve C.

    If you're craving some ice cream look no further than Jeni's! They have an abundant selection of flavors and you can sample before you try. I had the darkest chocolate and the salty peanut butter. Hits the spot on a hot summer day. If you are walking around Town Center be sure to stop by!

The Mount…read morePleasant location offers Açaí Bowls and has expanded their menu just a tiny bit to include matcha, tajin chamoy, and more. We noticed that both of our orders came in a smaller 12 ounce size rather than the larger 16 ounce that we ordered. We brought it up, and the staff apologized and made us an additional 12 ounce each to make up for the mistake. We were super pleased with their customer service, and even more so that we ended up with full tummies of 24 ounces of dessert! We had the Affogato and Twix, and the Affogato was our favorite. It's coffee, chocolate, and vanilla with brownie bits. We also loved that the staff came over to our table to check on us and chatted, which was sweet and personable. The ambience was quiet and clean inside too. Vampire Penguin is our absolute favorite, and they made our Mother's Day eating adventure very special.

The desserts here are so unique -- the shaved snow is light, airy, and melts instantly, almost like a cross between ice cream and fresh powdery snow. My husband got the Strawberry Cheesecake which was the highlight of the visit! The strawberry and vanilla shaved snow is perfectly smooth and creamy, and the fresh strawberries, graham cracker crumbs, and sweet drizzle make it taste exactly like a light, refreshing strawberry cheesecake. It's sweet without being heavy, and every bite feels like a little cloud of dessert. Easily a new favorite. Pollar Affagatto If you love coffee desserts, this one is a must-try. The combination of coffee and vanilla snow gives it a mellow espresso flavor, and the brownie bites and chocolate drizzle take it to the next level. It's rich but still surprisingly light -- the perfect mix of coffee, dessert, and creamy snow. It felt like an affogato but way more fun. I get the black dark decor based on the name but for me personally that was a bit too dark of a vibe for me and could be cleaner inside but you can eat outside with a couple of tables on the sidewalk. Overall, Vampire Penguin is such a unique spot for something different. The flavors are creative, the portion sizes are generous, and everything tastes super fresh. We'll definitely be back -- the Strawberry Cheesecake and Pollar Affagatto were both amazing just on the pricey side for shaved ice so consider it a higher end treat.

    Great Rita's! Great staff and product with very clean atmosphere. We will be back very soon!read more

    Experience was so bad we never actually made it in the door…read more I will add the story, but suffice it to say I have never met a business owner so willing to offend a customer base in his local neighborhood. Considering this business should be peddling Joy, this guy can chase customers away faster than: A politician changes their mind! Trump can piss off a Democrat! Rita's Slogan: "Ice+Custard=Happiness" This Rita's owners slogan: "Me+Customers = wait, where did my customers go?" If "poor customer service" were an action movie, this guy is their Arnold Schwarzenegger. Imagine owning an Ice shop and chasing away the family dinner guests from next door so they don't buy your desert. I bet they teach that in business school!!! I don't condemn Rita's as a whole, and I am sure the young folks that work here are delightful (Probably miserable working for that dude). So if you are reading this - don't hate the business, but certainly the owner is worthy. The story: There is a new restaurant next door that we were going to for dinner, planning to get Ices for desert. Unfortunately we made the mistake of sitting down near here when there was no one there or waiting for a seat. At which point the presumable owner of this establishment rudely asked us to leave as these particular seats were only for his customer. He could have easily asked nicely, and we would have come buy after dinner and bought ices. But he was flat out rude about it. Nicely we said nothing, got up walked to the other area where bunches of people were sitting on benches waiting for their tables. When some got up and left, we sat down. BIG mistake according to this guy. He came out yelling. Not at any of the other people, just my family because "He already told us to leave." Mind you - this is an unmarked bench in a public easement between 2 businesses - photo in the review. 1/2 a dozen other people around us are staring and shaking their heads at the guy, obviously no longer planning to buy anything there and apparently this is a nightly occurrence! For us - I will not frequent this establishment if it were the last place on earth to sell Ice.
