Kendra was absolutely amazing and helped me find the perfect ice cream that I was craving!!! Absolutely recommend this place if you're near by. Ask for Kendra!!! read more

My first time here and I'm so obsessed with their decor! Staff are all so nice and welcoming. Have no fear if you're an indecisive girl like me because they allow you to sample flavors before ordering. I love that there's different options. They have soft serve, italian ice, and different ice cream flavors. It's really hard to decide when everything tastes so yummy. There's plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. A great place to be with a group of people. read more

I've been to Joe's a couple of times and the staff here is super friendly. It's right next to Old Town Taste so definitely a great spot for dessert after. I've tried their banana split and Joe Latti the last few times I had come by here. They have lots of rotating Italian ice flavors so there is definitely something for everyone. The ice is very soft and doesn't taste too syrupy. I think the contrast of the fruity Italian ice flavors pairs well with the vanilla soft serve that they have on the Joe Latti. Stamp cards are also offered here, which is something that I have not seen in a long time. There is lots of seating here as well, and the lines move quickly. It's also convenient that they have a drive through here. read more

The service was fast and friendly, even with a long line. They let us sample several flavors before ordering. I got the Joelatti with cookies and cream ice and vanilla soft serve. It had the perfect consistency and taste! My only qualm was I wish they allowed you to order the Joelatti in a small size as the regular is quite large. The interior is eclectic and full of 1950s diner and barber memorabilia. read more

I loveeee this place! Their cookies & cream is the absolute best flavor and texture wise and they have some really good Italian ice flavors. I've been going here for years and love that they do a punchcard option because when I go, I definitely get a bunch of different flavors. The servers are always friendly and they allow you to taste test all the flavors before committing to one. The place is a great place to get good photos with a lot of nostalgic memorabilia around. read more

This place is amazing! The Joe latte is where it's at! So yummy. I wish we had one in Colorado!

It cannot get better than this place! From the Italian ice to their soft serve. Their soft serve has a flavor that you can't even describe. The Italian ice actually have pieces of fruit in them! The service is always amazing, they offer samples without having to ask. The ambiance is very retro and cool. read more

Joe's Italian Ice - Peachy kiwi - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Tempe, Arizona

We were the only ones in here for a good 30 minutes, but I mean, it was the middle of the day in the middle of the week...most people were at work or school, so we didn't let that deter us. We each ordered an Italian ice, because duh, it's in the name, right? He got regular cherry and I got Bada Bing Cherry, and we both got ours topped with custard. For me, the custard (vanilla) was a great choice to help tame the VERY strong cherry flavor. I am not complaining in the least, but we both got larges, and the flavor of mine was intense, and there was soooo much of it! I will caution to beware of your flavor choice, as you will leave with a coordinating tongue color! Also? Beware of brain freeze....it will sneak up on you. From the outside, the place is very drive-in looking, even though it's not one. Once you walk in the doors, there is a very strong red and white color scheme, and all the decor is 50's real or inspired. There is an original wooden phone booth complete with bench and folding door, a barber's chair, and signage, among other things. Don't forget to look up, because stuff is all over the ceilings AND in the skylight bumpouts. The tables and chairs are 50's style chrome and vinyl. Joe's has been on my to-do list for a while now, so I'm glad I finally got the chance to visit. It's a refreshing treat on a hot day! 11/2026 read more

Joe's Italian Ice - sour cherry joe latti - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Tempe, Arizona

Okay, I don't know why I thought this was an Italian diner, but the inside is so fun and definitely still that vibe with GREAT Italian ice. I've never had Italian ice and being my first time I wanted to try both the soft serve and the ice..... I loved the ice cream until I tasted the ice and realized I wasted my time, money and space in my stomach when I tasted that pina colada Italian ice. IT IS SO GOOD. brb Joes Italian Ice read more

This was okay, I liked it but it wasn't as good as the one in Anaheim CA. The reason I took away one star, was because the ice under the soft-serve ice cream was flavorless. We are used to our flavored ice to have the flavor we picked... but we both tasted each other's ice and it was really flavorless despite the color. In Anaheim, the flavor of the strawberry or mango is truly there and it's noticeable! I guess it's not the same out here in Arizona... The place was decorated like a soda fountain shop from the 50's and a vintage garage; interesting vibe! Otherwise the staff were good, friendly, but short staffed. A line built up very quickly and I overheard some folks complaining that it was unusual. So not my best first time at an establishment I like. Bummer. But not terrible. It was fine. (Again, I am comparing to the Anaheim establishment and this one isn't worth a long line wait, let's put it that way.) read more

I am a nonemergency medical transporter so after a long 14 hour shift, I came to Joe's and Sierra was in the window for the drive-through. She was very kind and pleasant and noticed my hair and complimented me and it made me feel great and I think that she does a great job. this ice cream or I'm sorry Italian ice is amazing and I bring everyone. I love here as well. Just saying. read more

Only great things to say! Wonderful and cute icecream shop that has a lot of choices that include different flavors for Italian ice, sundaes, and icecream. I recommend trying whatever sample they offer for their Italian ice, they are all delicious and the seasonals are so good! The service is wonderful, everyone is super nice everytime I visit, and they are super quick! They have indoor seating and ordering with a lot of fun decorations inside. they also have a drive thru! read more

I'm from Philly so this place is right up my alley!! Grew up on Italian ice, bada bing Cherry is my go to...always a quart

Service is often times quite slow, but staff are friendly and helpful. The soft serve is some of the best in the Valley- extremely creamy and smooth. I love the variety of flavors they have here- my favorites are their cherry (both versions, one is more like a candy cherry and the other is a natural cherry) and lemon flavors. If you are feeling like you need a a sweet treat on a hot day , a Joe-Latti (soft serve AND ice) is the way to go. They also have punch cards, which I like. :) read more

Came to visit my bestie in AZ and I was so stoked to find out they had Joe's Italian Ice over here! I had to bring her ASAP when I saw it and guess what? She loved it! I've been to one in Cali before, so it was really fun to experience it again out here in Arizona. This place will always hold a special spot in my heart... and definitely in my stomach. I always try something new when I come here, so you just have to find a flavor you like and go for it! A big plus about this location is that it's huge! I'm a total fan of the inside - all the neat knick-knacks and great details make it fun to explore, and your eyes will always find something new. Service was friendly and quick, and something to keep in mind with Arizona heat: this spot is perfect for cooling off on a hot day! read more

What an interesting place. I don't even know where to look, it's so stimulating inside! Popped in on a random stop and nostalgia for Italian ice, remembering these stops with my father when I was a kid. I got the classic Italian ice. Service by Victoria was lovely! She is so warm and welcoming and offered to let me sample multiple options before selecting. That was delicious! read more

Always love to visit this place! First, I always have a great time checking out the decors inside the shop, which are nostalgic and unique! Second, the ice I get is always delicious! Love their mango and strawberry flavors. And the vanilla ice cream underneath is rich and not too sweet. The staff are also friendly and efficient! I've been there several times and never had to wait for too long to pick up my order. Highly recommend this place if you also like Italian ice! read more

BEST SOFT SERVE I HAVE EVER HAD IN MY LIFE. Location is great. No long line like the one in Anaheim. Never got a chance to try Joe's because of that. But was able here in Arizona due to no wait time. They have flavors of the days and change menu flavors consistently. Favorite one is watermelon or cherry. They let you try sample as well so deciding is easier. I recommend the the Joe Latti, best of both worlds! read more

So fun coming here. It's the perfect summer pick me up. It was quick and easy to order. Tons of options to pick from. I had a root beer float and it reminded me of the elementary school parties but in a big cup. 10/10! I loved the variety of choices and dairy free options. The soft serve was so smooth, literal perfection. The shop is perfect for a cute date, family stop in, and Instagram worthy! So many areas for photo op's and some really fun puns!

I thought Joe's was only located in Anaheim, so I was so excited to see one here in Tempe! The drive thru is a huge plus also. There are so many different Italian ice flavors to try, and I highly recommend getting a Joe-latti, which is Italian ice with a flavor of your choice + custard. It's the perfect balance and so delicious. Such a great place for a quick sweet treat, I highly recommend! read more

I'm not much of a sweet liking person, but on this evening, I decided to try out Joe's Italian ice. The service was great as I really didn't know what I wanted and they offered me a variety of samples. They have quite a large selection to choose from, and I opted in for the Dole pineapple vanilla swirl cone dipped in chocolate. As I took my sweet treat to the car and took one bite I couldn't believe how flavorful the pineapple was. Then you add that with the chocolate dip and this was truly a memorable treat. The inside is similar to a diner, it's open and clean with lots of light. There's plenty of Ample parking around and behind the establishment. If you enjoy sweets and you're looking to satisfy your craving, definitely try this place. read more

i'm a frequent at the anaheim location and this place was just so much cooler. there were so many decorations inside the place that just made the vibe so litty. tried the pink pixie joelatti and wow. their soft serve is just on another level. although there was a bit of a wait, it wasn't nearly as long as the ones in anaheim. plus, they even sell some cool stickers!!! a great souvenir from AZ read more

Joe's Italian Ice - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Tempe, Arizona

Flabbergasted that this place is listed as just one dollar sign on Yelp. This has got to be the most expensive ice cream shop in the east valley. $9.95 for a small dipped cone? Ice cream was good, but who's paying for this? I thought interest rates were high these days; but I think Joes ice cream might have them beat. read more

Wow!! I got the Dole Whip / vanilla soft serve swirl with mango ice (and a lot of other ice flavors I think they forgot to put in) and it was incredible. The ice cream is smooth and creamy - and it's always a special treat to get dole whip outside of Hawaii. The ice was flavorful without being too sweet or tasting like artificial syrup. It was all blended in already and the ice is smooth and snow like - not crunchy. It combined really well with the soft serve, so it really wasn't like an afterthought or just throwing ice cream upsells on random things. I got a little chilly eating so I recommend bringing a jacket if you're coming in winter time! read more

Absolutely love this spot! Feels like a slice from back home. I always get their cherry and vanilla joelati and could not be happier. Service is always fast and friendly.

Really wanted to like this place, but the pricing is tough to justify. Paid $8.60 for a single scoop of ice cream served in a small styrofoam cup. The product itself was decent, but the portion size versus cost just didn't feel reasonable. Comparable places like Handles are less expensive and give substantially larger portions. Unfortunately left feeling more shocked by the price than impressed by the experience. Will be our last visit here read more

Oh. My. Goodness. So. Yummy. We got 2 Joe Lattis, one with dolewhip and mango and strawberry colada ice, and another with chocolate soft serve and cookies and cream ice. We also got a strawberry's and cream Italian ice. Everyone had their own favorite, but I loved the mango, the chocolate on chocolate, and my strawberry's and cream was absolutely phenomenal, even though I'm not a strawberry lover. The employees were also incredibly kind and super helpful in picking our flavors. We were unfortunately on vacation when we tried this place, but apparently there's a local spot by our house which we will probably be regulars at. read more

First time here, recommended by a friend. Really like the decor. Their ice cream is really creamy and thick for their sofserve. And their Italian ice is really good as well. My first time. They were kind enough to offer samples for the flavor of the day even without us asking. Their samples were quite big as well. I felt the joelatti which is a combination of their soft serve and the Italian ice is a great combination. They also have sundaes and milkshakes which I haven't tried but definitely would like to try. Off late most places renovate to be more trendy and modern appearing but joes Italian ice has a very retro look which is quite unique to the place and adds character and originality to the place. read more

I had such a great experience at Joe's Italian Ice thanks to Sierra in the drive-thru! It was my first time visiting, and I was trying to order while also dealing with my crying baby. Sierra was incredibly sweet, patient, and understanding the entire time. She even made goofy faces at my baby to help calm him down while I figured out what I wanted, which honestly meant so much to me. She never once seemed annoyed or irritated, even though I was taking a little extra time. Her kindness and positive attitude completely made my day. Because of her amazing customer service, this definitely won't be my last visit! read more

Very cool place to get a treat! Decor is very fun and cool! The girl at the register was very helpful, and offered samples to help me make a decision. I decided on the Joelatti, it's your choice of soft serve ice cream with your choice of slush put together. I chose the wild cherry slush with vanilla soft serve. Was truly a flavorgasm, so good!! I can't wait to come back and try other menu items! read more

By happenstance we can across Joe's whole eating across the street. Upon arrival, we were greeted and asked if we would like to try today's flavor: dreamsickle. It tasted just like the flintstones orange pops (IYKYK). We had our hearts set on other flavors: cookies and cream with a twist, and my boyfriend got a cherry flavor with real cherries. Hard to say a lot about Italian ice, but I've never had any better than Joe's. It's a fun environment, great prices and a delicious treat. read more
