Kwality is a cool ice cream shop with unique Indian inspired flavors. I love that they serve more than ice cream; you can get gulab jamun and other Indian desserts here too. They offer samples of everything and the lady serving us explained what each flavor was! I really liked the gulab jamun on the ice cream. The gulab jamun was microwaved so it contrasted nicely with the saffron ice cream that I got. I'd definitely come back! read more

If you're craving authentic Indian ice creams then you should head to Kwality Ice creams. I'm a huge Kulfi fan, so this place gives me a lot of options. And their malai kulfi hits home for me. Service is pretty quick, there's never been a wait time when I've visited. And they have some seating indoors too. But just a couple of tables. I'll definitely go back for their Kulfi and Indian flavors! read more

This is easily one of the most unique ice cream shops I've visited. They offer many traditional Indian-inspired flavors in addition to classic ones, and I was all for trying something new. As the two of us browsed the selection, we asked if we could sample, but the employee behind the counter stated they don't allow sampling. While he was nice about it, this was so unexpected, given that many customers wouldn't necessarily be familiar with the more ethnic flavors (like Chikoo or Rajbhog, for example). Nevertheless, I had my mind set on the Kulfi ($5.45 each), which comes in semi-circle slices that are cut into cubes right before serving. + TRADITIONAL MANGO KULFI: When I first tasted this, I detected a bit of nuttiness before the actual mango flavor revealed itself. Rather than being vibrant and fruity like one might expect, I'd say the mango is more of an undertone. + KESAR PISTA KULFI: This one had pretty strong notes of cardamom, combined with the mild nuttiness of pistachio and what I'm assuming was a touch of saffron. Both were extremely creamy, rich and the perfect sweetness. Needless to say, I thoroughly enjoyed them, especially the Kesar Pista for its novelty factor. Given the Kulfi is denser than your typical ice cream, it actually had a slight chew and was slow to melt, so one can savor the flavor without feeling rushed to eat it. This type of ice cream is not an easy find, so I definitely recommend it if you're feeling a bit adventurous. I'd just suggest doing some upfront research on the various flavors before arriving since sampling is not an option. 4.25 stars. read more

An Indian ice cream parlour with unique flavours such as rose water, kesar, apple custard (sitaphal), and so many more!! I have only had these flavours in India so it was really nice to have it in Seattle. I got their guvava ice cream with masala on top, I was a bit skeptical at first because you're putting spices on your ice cream but I'm glad I decided to go for it. I don't know how, but the sweet and tangy flavours really went together. It also came with a few slices of mango. It kind of reminded me of the fresh guvavas you get on the street of India with the spices. I also got their rose ice cream falooda, YUMM! It had been awhile since I had eaten falooda so this was a good treat. Their rose ice cream was delicious according to me!! My friend also got cassata, which is super popular in India. It's essentially 4 flavours of ice cream in one slice, this particular one had guvava, rose, pistachio, and vanilla flavours. Loved it! read more

I love their malai kulfi! It was an introduction to indian ice cream and I wish I tried this sooner. Why isn't this more popular? It's kinda like tea flavored ice cream, it has the herbs that are present in a lot of Indian tea, giving it a unique flavor that western ice cream stores don't have. Seriously, I think a lot of people would like their flavors! This place is a staple to the crossroads community. I believe I met one of the owners one time when they came in to open (either the owner or an opener, not sure) and he was super sweet! So was the girl that I met a few days ago. Wish I took a photo of my ice cream, but it was rich and creamy, had a little bit of a stretch too which is, from my very surface level research, common with indian style ice creams. Def coming back to this place with friends, highly recommend. Currently writing this review in the winter so im sure the customer volumes havent been too high but once summer comes I'm sure it will get really busy! read more

Food - Indian ice cream. Basil and vermicelli are texturally fun to eat! Service - Quick, nice, basic. Ambiance - Mom and pop shop. read more

Really good ice cream with a wife range of flavors you can't get anywhere else! It appears that they previously didn't do samples, but I'm happy to announce that they are definitely doing it now! The person at the counter was very helpful and let us try a few before we decided. The vibe is still similar to Baskin Robbins, but with flavors like guava, black currant, walnut, etc. They also have combos with fresh fruit to go with the ice cream! read more

My adventurous friend and I stumbled upon this place after grabbing hot pot across the street at Happy Lamb. We expected just basic vanilla, mint chocolate chip, etc., but were pleasantly surprised that they offered a large selection of traditional Indian ice cream flavors as well. I'm familiar with rose water, coconut, and lychee ice cream, but many of the other flavors like Malai Kulfi, Mava Kulfi, Rajhbog, Chikoo, and Paan Masala I had no idea what they were. I texted my Indian friend and he was able to inform me of some of the flavors. The rest I had to Google. Thankfully, they allow you to sample as many flavors as you want and so I tried at least four flavors before deciding. I ended up getting a single scoop of the Thandai (which is apparently a traditional, nutty Indian drink) (~$5). My friend got a single scoop of the Paan Masala. Both were very creamy and flavorful and I liked the light but nutty flavor of the Thandai. The Paan Masala was definitely interesting; apparently the flavor is from a leaf that is commonly chewed like tobacco. It had a lot of colors (think birthday cake) and texture to it from candied fennel seeds and other chopped up gummy candies. My friend, who has never had fennel seeds before, described it as tasting like nerds candy and gummy worms. Prices are pretty high for a small scoop of ice cream, but you can get a pint for just under $11, which is comparable to Molly Moons and other Seattle ice cream chains. They also serve milkshakes and other traditional drinks. The ambiance is kind of like a Baskin & Robins. Definitely nothing fancy. Half of the shop is taken up by the large ice cream counter and the other half has about four tables for seating. Overall: 4/5 for ice cream, 4/5 for service, 3/5 for ambiance read more

The gal pals and I were chatting about great Indian ice cream spots while eating in the area, and we were excited to try this spot in Bellevue! I'm pretty sure this is located in a former Baskin Robbins, just imagine that ice cream got emptied out and replaced with more unique flavors. I enjoyed seeing the variety, but as a newcomer to Indian ice creams, it was challenging to pick a flavor and unfortunately we didn't get much help from the staff. There's also no sampling, so picking one flavor felt like a bit of a gamble! I went with something fruity and adventurous (for me), I wish I went with a sure hit like mango instead. My scoop was icy, and despite being a self-proclaimed ice-cream aficionado, this won't be a repeat stop for me although this may hit certain nostalgic spots for others. read more

I'm definitely a bigger fan of this place than the original inhabitant of the store (BR31)! The traditional Indian flavors are always refreshing and never get old because you can't get them anywhere else. The interior is very straightforward without many bits or baubles, and perhaps the amount of seating could be improved. But, it's consistent, and always has lots of options to buy in pints from their freezers as well. Really like their Pista (pistachio likeness?) and Mango flavors (pictured) and stop by often when I'm in Crossroads. read more

We were in the area and wanted dessert so we stopped here to grab some ice cream. This is not the typical ice cream, it's indian inspired flavors. We end up getting a cassata cake which is 3 layers of ice cream on top of a cake layer. The 3 layers (pistachio, tutti frutti, and vanilla) are pretty good and distinct. The cake though is dry. If it's more moist, it would have been delicious. We also got the paan masala ice cream. This was soo interesting. There was herb, spices, nuts, etc. My husband like this a lot because it's closer to savory flavor than sweet. I like it cause of the complex texture. Price for 1 scoop is reasonable and the cake as well. My critique is that it's not gear toward non-indian customers as there was no descriptions of any of the items making it very hard to decide what you want. Overall, the dessert is yummy and I would come back read more

I was excited when I heard that Kwality Ice Cream was available in Seattle, but disappointed after trying it. We got a scoop of ButterScotch, and Badshahi Falooda. Butterscotch was okay, nothing like what I remember from India, Badshahi Falooda was a disappointment. We also got 2 Cassata's to go, they were again just okay. I used to love the Cassata available back in India and this doesn't come close to how good that was. We went on a Friday night after dinner and had to wait in line for about 20 mins. read more

Passing by after eating a heavy lunch. Checked the place out on yelp and came to know its India's "Kwality Walls" ice cream. The place has its own parking lot. Many Indian and regular western ice cream flavours. We ordered their:- Rose ice cream- It was nice and creamy. Might be too sweet for some Palate. Butterscotch ice cream- It was ok ok. Was expecting those crunchy butterscotch bits, but found none. Paan Masala ice cream- It was an refreshing tasting ice cream. Chikoo (Sapota)- It was ok ok. Overall, will be back to try other flavors. read more

This spot is easily a 5/5 and the service is on point. I felt bad the worker explaining all the flavors and letting me sample them. Personal favorite is the Alphonso mango, it was unbelievably good. I know Thai mangos get all the attention but Indian mango is the sleeper choice and so rich in flavor. A definite must try. There were some other "classic flavors" that I wasn't familiar with, including one with beetle nut which was interesting. Not a favorite but appreciate the opportunity to try it! I can't rave about this spot enough and am glad I hear about it from a friend. I've easily passed by this place a few times and it's always poppin. Glad I finally came in and I recommend you do too! read more

Kwality Ice cream brings back memories from the 90s back home. All the flavors are classic ! I tried the Paan Masala and the Kulfi Falooda. I really liked the Kulfi Falooda but Paan Masala was very sweet. I think if it was a lot less sugary, it would have been my favorite. I checked with them about which flavor was the least sweet and they said that coconut seemed to be the sweetest so I would definitely avoid that one. On my next visit I might try their Anjeer walnut and Chikoo. I got to try three of their flavors before proceeding to buy them. I loved the Rose and Thandai flavor too but again, could have been less sweet. They are open all 7 days atleast until 10 pm with the exception of Friday and Saturday when they are open until 11 pm. Price point could have been better but I do appreciate the variety of available options. read more

It is a small place that will almost go unnoticed if you don't hunt for it. They don't have any signs, just a banner which is half fallen off. But what the lack in pomp and show is clearly made up in their ice cream. Being an Indian shop, many of their flavors are authentic, like butterscotch, black current, paan masala, rose milk, rajbhogh, kesar pista, tokti frooti, etc. They have trials so you can taste whichever ones you want. On a different menu, they have ice creams tubs, and even cassata! I ordered a single scoop of the Paan Masala, and my friend got the double Rose Petal and Butterscotch. All three of them were a solid 5/5. The flavor was bursting in all of them without being overpowering at all. Paan Masala even had genuine saunf and other spices in it. It couldn't have been better! Rose was mild and mixed perfectly with Butterscotch. They don't have much seating inside but are located near the public benches. This place is a hidden gem! I would highly recommend everyone to try this place out. read more

Stumbled upon this ice cream place with very very unique ice cream flavors -- it has a Middle Eastern touch to it. One of a kind. Highly HIGHLY recommend their traditional malai kulfi. They cut it into cubes and you eat it with spoon/toothpick. SO GOOD. It's a combination of cheese and cream, but not too sweet The ice cream itself is also suuuper good -- you can choose either the malai kulfi or the mava kulfi. The person serving was also super nice! Though, the price of the ice cream can be a little pricey -- this one costs ~$5.30 read more

My all time favorite being the classic malai kulfi! A must try if in Bellevue and craving for some Indian dessert. They have tons of other flavors too that looked tempting and shall try some other day and update review here! A hole in the wall that wont burn a hole in your pocket!

We were amazed to find Kwality ice cream. We were visiting Seattle and found this gem. We ate butterscotch it was nice and creamy but was missing the caramel or the sugar crystal pieces that was we used to get back in India. I think that would enhance the taste of the ice cream. Cassata - was also good. We liked it. Falooda Kulfi - was nice and tasty as well. Will definitely come back and worth the wait for the Indian flavored ice creams. read more

Excited to try this place after hearing they had falooda. Me and my cousin ordered the Badshai Falooda which comes as a drink and the regular falooda which comes in a cup like a sundae. Both were just alright and nothing amazing in flavor. They just put some rose ice cream mixed it with milk in the blender and added vermicelli noodles, some basil seeds with rose syrup and a pinch of nuts and called it falooda when its missing the main part of jello that comes in authentic falooda. For $8 I wasn't impressed. They had some other flavors that looked good like mango and pistachio which I might consider trying but the falooda sadly didnt have a wow factor and needs to be worked on. I do appreciate that they opened an ice cream shop catered towards the desi community since there are not a lot of dessert options in the area. Also we came on a weeknight around 6pm and there was only 3 other customers seated inside at the table inside so we didnt have to wait long and the lady at the cashier was nice and prompt in serving us. On the other hand the customer sitting down with his ice cream was super annoying and kept interrupting us to order more. Its like come on this isn't India have some common courtesy and wait your turn to order something instead of butting in every 2mins to ask for something. I think they should have proper signage and markings so customers know to wait their turn. It also slows down the process for the cashier getting the ice cream. read more

Finally stopped by here after hearing about it for a few weeks and were so happy to see the range of flavors of Indian ice-creams that took us back to our childhood. It wasn't very crowded when we just got there but in literally 15 minutes it was packed. We got a scoop each of the Alphonso Mango and the Butterscotch and both were absolutely outstanding. I wish there was a little more crunchy caramel in the butterscotch but given that it was a flavor I'd eaten after about a decade, I couldn't complain. I would have loved to try out a few flavors but maybe will go next time at an odd hour when there's no rush. The extremely kind and friendly lady behind the counter did offer to let us try and we tasted the paan-masala (which was let's say interesting) but it didn't feel right to hold up the line so we skipped on tasting more. A little pricey as far as ice-cream scoops in the area go but given that it's by far the most authentic and close to home Indian ice-cream I've seen in the greater Seattle area, it's no wonder that business is booming and the place is always packed. Can't wait to go back. p.s. Other Indian include: Rose Petal, Rajbhog, Cashew Rasin, Thandai, Orange Pineapple, Black Currant, Anjeer Walnut, Paan Masala, Pista, Kulfi Falooda, Tuttie Frutti, Guava, Chikoo and Kesar Pista as well as a bunch of regular standard flavors. They also have a selection of various kulfis and casatta. read more

Time travel to summer vacation days in India!!! We tried alphonso mango and butterscotch from 10-12 Indian flavors they have. They also have indian flavored cake and falooda. I really liked that their scoop size is Indian size scoop (similar to kids size at other ice cream places) and it is aptly priced. FIVE STARS for being open until 10pm and not running out on the hottest day of the year. Perfect end to a 108 F day. read more

An Indian ice cream shop. Their name is Kwality but I did not find their ice cream good quality. The shop itself is pretty rundown. The ice cream is very melty.

Thank you Shirley. After a nice dinner, we were craving ice cream. We found Kwality Ice cream in Bellevue. This store has some very unique flavors from Pakistan and India along with traditional flavors. They have flavors like Rose, Kulfi, Saffron, Chicoo, Paan, Mango, Pistachio and more. When we went in, a young lady Shirley was working behind the counter. The owner was also present. As we waited our turn, the store got very busy. We were surprised that the owner abruptly left while Shirley was meticulously taking the orders and preparing them. She was overwhelmed with customers but she kept her smile and did a fabulous job. She took care of every single customer and everyone was happy. Didn't hear anyone complain. She told us she had been working for just a week. Wow! Thank you Shirley for such a positive attitude and for taking care of us and others that came in today. The owner is very fortunate to have such a dedicated and hardworking employee working for him. I am giving a 5 star rating due to Shirley and the quality of ice cream. Sorry, the owner gets zero stars for leaving in a hurry and putting all the workload on Shirley's shoulders.

Heard about this place and wanted to go to Kwality ice cream since this was one of the ice creams we would eat while we grew up in India. Tried their mango scoop, butterscotch scoop and tutti frutti scoop. All the 3 ice cream flavors got back childhood memories for me.. The mango ice cream was delicious and so was the tutti frutti..the butterscotch ice cream was good but it missed those crunchy bites but the flavor was nice! I would love to come back and try their pista, chickoo and other flavors! Glad these guys are open until 10pm! The prices are reasonable and they also sell some pints in store for you to take home! I will definitely come back to hoard on some mango ice cream pints and try new flavors! read more

Kwality Ice Cream is in the same location that was occupied by the Crossroads Baskin Robin's earlier. They have some nice tropical/Indian flavors (Mango, sapota/chikko, Paan, Tutti Fruti, Kulfi, Cassatta, etc). Reminded me of the Ice Cream Flavors that I ate growing up. They also have Falooda and Mastani drinks; and ice-cream cakes. Looks like they are a (franchise?) location of Kwality's in the Bay Area and other US locations - https://kwalityfoods.com/ ; also, I found a NY Times article about this chain (https://www.nytimes.com/2017/09/01/dining/kwality-ice-cream-india.html) read more

The service and quality is subpar. Kido desires to sample before purchasing. Initially, the restaurant staff mentioned sampling only flavors not previously tried. This directive wasn't clear at the time. However, when Kido attempted to sample a third flavor, the staff hesitated, stating a maximum of two samples. Such a restrictive policy feels odd and impractical. Ice cream was very melty before reaching the car. I won't return to this place! read more

We were sold on going to this place when we heard it has ice cream flavors from India. The place is small and doesn't do dine in currently. There is currently no outdoor seating. We had a triple scoop - Alphonso Mango, Anjeer walnut and Cashew Raisin. The Alphonso Mango is a must have. Cashew Raisin had a good textured vanilla with the obvious ingredients. They have several other flavors -butterscotch, tutti frooti, kesar pista, guava, pista, rajbhog, rose petal, cassatta. They also have many flavors of kulfi. read more

Complete rip-off. look elsewhere. We visited Bellevue from Montana recently, and stopped in for a couple of pints to take with us, and they cost $28! when we got back to the room, we discovered they were freezer-burnt. The icecream may have been decent at some point, but it was not at all good, and extremely overpriced. read more

I ordered a badshahi Falooda drink that was yum! It was very tasty and not excessively sweet! It was the closest falooda I had compared to the taste back home.

Kwality Ice Cream was popping on the Saturday night that we went! There was a steady stream of customers coming in and out, so that gave us a good sign. There's a ton of different flavors to choose from, and it was great that you're able to sample any flavors! After trying a few, we decided to go with the pista and mango kulfi. They're served in slabs, and each costs around $6, which was a bit pricey for the amount of ice cream given. I was so excited to eat the kulfi, that taking a picture completely slipped my mind haha. Both kulfi were so so creamy! The pista kulfi had a nice nuttiness from the pistachio flavor, and the pistachio pieces on the bottom added a nice crunch. The vibrant green made it look so pretty too. The mango kulfi was extremely refreshing, and I loved how natural the mango flavor was. At other places, sometimes the ice cream tastes icy, with a small hint of mango. But this kulfi was different. We ate both slices in less than 10 minutes. Definitely would come back for the occasional treat! read more

The flavors here are very good - can't find selections like this around here. The problem is that the staff is really hit or miss in their ability to scoop ice cream.

This should be easy to fix - please do so and we will keep coming back and telling our friends! read more
