    The water waved painted floors and how vibrant it was

    Not sure where our local ice cream trucks went, but on a summer day if you're looking for something sweet to cook you down; there's an iced cone spot here in Dania beach. It's a piece of Key west if you have ever been down south, the vibrant colors are inviting and their flavors are tasteful. I met the owner and the passion he has for his business, customers and space. I got the rainbow classic iced cone, I'll try something new next time!

    Admittedly, I try to stay away from places like this, especially since I'm trying to drop a few pounds but this place can be addictive. They have just about every flavor imaginable and the kids will love it.

    I love a cold treat, especially during summer. I stopped in with my family while they were visiting & we were pleasantly surprised. We originally came for ice cream but decided on shaved ice. There seems to be endless flavors to choose from & the staff is helpful. I mixed passion fruit & mango. Huge portions & a fair amount of seating inside.

    First time in Dania Pointe, it was hot, which made a shaved ice, a no brainer! The staff here was extremely nice and helpful. Had many inquiries since it was my first time here. Went with Pina Colada, which included alcohol. I didn't really taste the alcohol too much, but it was still pretty good. I would definitely recommend stopping here to avoid the hot summer days in Florida!

    Good flavors and good sizes for the price! In a small, nice quiet area next to the Hollywood Beach :)

    Go for the take home size, yes, it's that good

    It never ceases to amaze me when I see the line of tourists waiting at Jaxsons. In order to go there to wait in line you will have passed up better ice cream at literally the other end of the parking lot, right next door! Don't get me wrong, Jaxsons is an institution and everyone should try it at least once, but after that skip the Old Timey and go for fresh, handmade, great ice cream. If you like Mint Chocolate chip it's the best anywhere, the mint flavor is strong and the creamy texture is sublime. $5 for a generous two scoops feels like a deal but we usually get a pint or quart and try and make it last 2 days (this only happens if I literally take it away from my husband and hide it in the freezer. I've actually never tried the shaved ice but I'm told it's great. I never get past the ice cream counter...

    Located along Federal Highway/US-1, Key West Shaved Ice is a small business that serves homemade ice cream in a cup or cone (sugar-free or non-dairy), milkshakes, root beer float, fresh squeezed lemonade, frozen alcoholic drinks, cold beverages, and of course shaved ice with various toppings and flavors. Price range from $5 - $8. Because of covid, customers must stand by the entrance to place their order, be 6ft apart, and wear a mask. The gentleman inside was very cordial as he scooped rum raisin ice cream into a cup and handed it to me. The ice cream was creamy and had a light rum taste. I definitely enjoyed this sweet treat on this very hot day. I look forward to return and try other flavors.

    As an alternative to Jaxsons one block away is Key West shaved ice and homemade ice cream. I had the coconut and grape nut flavors in a small size doe $6. It contains two scoops and is more than enough to enjoy. I tried in the past banana, pistachio, and chocolate. You can taste that it was made with love. Jaxsons is great but this is wonderful alternative cheaper and avoid the long lines.

    Only $5  This is a small

    Decent value for what you get. The flavors are tasty. But like I mentioned in my tip. No joke. There's only me here today. Fathers day 6.21.20. The owner has a short fuse. Gets aggravated quickly. Has no time for your questions. You better know what you want or else he get upset very quickly. It reminds me of the owner of that soup place from the Seinfeld episode. No SOUP for YOU !! No shaved ice FOR YOU.!!!!! Hajahajaha... You think I'm kidding. Take a whack at it when you visit. I'm the most content relaxed guy you'd want to meet. I'm in paradise in vacation. I had a fabulous breakfast at Bake Shack several hundred yards down the road. I'm so happy and in no rush at all. Living the dream baby. And two simple questions and this guy's feathers ate all ruffled. It's all good. Still a decent product. But it does melt quick.

    Amazing ice cream!!!! The ice cream maker worked at Jaxsons for 40 years and his recipes are amazing. I had the $5 bowl of ice cream which includes two flavors. The cookies and cream tasted very fresh and had chunks of Oreos. The mint chip was made with large chocolate chunks and was delish. They have indoor and outdoor seating. We stopped in on a Saturday afternoon and were served immediately. They offer samples! They also serve shaved Ices. This is a must place to visit, if you like quality ice cream. The $5 serving is huge! The staff was friendly and didn't rush our order.

    Stopped here today as I had an ice cream craving. When I saw this place first open I figured these people can't be for real ice cream this reasonable right next to the big dog Jaxson's with their long lines. Well at first I thought they were closed as I arrived a little after 11:30 AM on a Saturday morning. As I do my check in on Yelp, they surprisingly open. The guy says we open at noon but I am here so opened early for you! OMG who does that what a nice guy. Anyway I try to figure out a flavor and decide on a small cup mint chocolate chip. $5 even wow what a bargain so I get scared that homemade is not good. But it actually is the opposite cool refreshing plenty of mint flavor as well as lots of chocolate. I am hooked! Definitely will be back soon to try the shaved ices and all the flavors of ice creams. This guy opening up early really made my day. So glad to try this exceptional product. Much luck and success against the big dogs next door. As for me I will only be stopping here. Thank you.

    One of my new favorite spots for a icy treat! They have so many different flavors of syrup. Great spot for the kids. The best part is the ice is super soft. They also serve ice cream and get this folks... they serve adult snow cones with alcohol!!! My favorites include tigers blood, monkey juice and blue coconut. The Blue Hawaiian adult snow cone was very delicious and strong. The owner was very nice to talk to. He told me about the business and ironically he owns the other place called Snoballs on Sheridan (my other favorite spot). You can count on me to visit this place more often!

Unfortunately, I will never know if any of it actually tastes good. I have a nut allergy, the kind that in 25 years of living and ice cream in 30+ countries has never once stopped me from ordering. I asked about a specific flavor, was told it contained no nuts, and then was promptly informed I could not order it due to my allergy. After some back and forth I was told the only flavor I could order was vanilla :( I appreciate caution around allergies, I truly do. But most establishments handle this with a standard cross-contamination warning and let the adult with the allergy make an informed decision. As someone who has worked in an ice cream shop (without a problem) it makes me question their food handling and cleanliness... I left without ordering anything. But everyone around seemed to be enjoying the $9 scoops of what I can only assume were life-changing flavors The place looks great. I hope they revisit how they handle allergy disclosures, because I genuinely wanted to love it and I'd like the chance to actually try it someday.

    Wow... this was a completely unexpected gem…read more Disclaimer: I'm a Canadian living in the Pacific Northwest, and I've almost never found authentic Quebec-style poutine in the U.S. (with one exception). Finding this in Florida honestly felt like that moment in Ratatouille when the critic takes a bite and is transported back to childhood. That's exactly what this felt like. Food: 4.5/5 Hot Chicken Sandwich with Poutine (4.5/5) Shredded chicken breast between slices of bread, absolutely drenched in gravy, with peas on top and a generous side of poutine. Magnifique. I haven't had a hot chicken sandwich like this since growing up in Canada, and wow... this brought me straight back. Thick-cut fries were spot on, and the cheese curds were exactly how poutine should be. Only reason it's not a full 5: the chicken leaned a bit dry, and part of me remembers this dish more with dark meat than white. Popcorn Chicken Poutine (4/5) Crunchy, tender, and satisfying. Same excellent poutine base, which really carries the dish. Service: 4/5 Friendly and helpful. They even gave me a heads-up that the sandwich would be drenched in gravy... which, honestly, is exactly what I was hoping for. Ambiance: Casual and comfortable. Works well for small groups or bigger hangouts. Final Thought: If you're craving real-deal poutine or a nostalgic taste of Canada, this place delivers in a way I didn't expect to find this far south.

Keep an eye out for the charming blue-and-white stand topped with American flags, set back from the road, it's easy to miss, but worth seeking out. The Siciliano family has been serving the Miami community for decades. In October 1961, Louis Siciliano opened a sub shop at 711 NW 119th Street in Miami. Although the original location has since closed, the family legacy continues with Siciliano's Frozen Custard and the neighboring Sub Center and Siciliano's Subs, all operated by members of the Siciliano family. Don Drybread, Louis Siciliano's great-grandson, originally opened the custard stand as Uncle Tony's Frozen Custard before renaming it Siciliano's in honor of his mother's side of the family. Siciliano's specializes in frozen custard, which differs from traditional ice cream by containing egg yolks and being churned with less air. The result is a denser, richer, silkier dessert with a smooth texture. It's also served at a slightly warmer temperature than ice cream, allowing you to savor its rich flavor. The custard is made fresh throughout the day, ensuring the perfect consistency every time. Custard is offered in the classic flavors of vanilla, chocolate, and a twist of both, available in cups or cones with your choice of nuts, candy, fruit, or sauce toppings. The menu also features sundaes, sorbet, milkshakes, and their signature thick Hurricanes. For something a little different, Carolyn's Creations transforms the custard into treats like cannolis, dessert tacos, and ice cream sandwiches. I ordered a medium vanilla custard topped with butterscotch and it was so satisfying. The rich, creamy custard made the perfect treat on a hot summer day. There isn't any indoor seating, but there are picnic tables next to the Sub Center, which is great spot to savor your sub or custard.
