Great stop for bubble tea, shackles and ice cream!!! Flavors were good and enjoyed watching the ice cream p recess and rolling! Great snack in the area.
We stopped by Legend Tasty House during our visit to Chinatown. We selected the coconut rolled ice cream and the Thai tea boba. The staff were friendly and quickly got us our order. Both the ice cream and Thai tea boba were excellent. There are a lot of tables available for seating! Overall, I'd recommend checking out Legend Tasty House for a sweet treat!
I have been dying to try a rolled ice cream establishment and FINALLY..... TODAY, I got my ice cream and it did not disappoint. I had the #7, Dream Tiffany and it was delicious. I will definitely be back.
Yum Yum, and Yum again! If you're looking for a sweet tooth after running through Chinatown, this is a perfect place to go! Ice cream & drinks made available to order and I decided on Oreo based upon the cashiers recommendation. Loved it! When I'm back in the area I would love to return to try them again!
I was in China Town. Ice cream here looked colorful and delicious. I went for a Magic elf. It was a new flavor with Oreo and Taro. Ice cream was delicious. The place was modern.
Quick service Drink size great for the price. Very modernz, good playlist and freshed AC from hot day outside. Clean customer bathrooms were such a perk & appreciated! Ty
Wow! This was our first time trying rolled ice cream! We stopped by a shop in Chinatown, it's right next to another rolled ice cream shop but we chose this one. Once inside you can order from a machine in the order or at the counter. There is a small bar to sit or several tabletop options. The menu is extensive including a variety of rolled ice cream choices, some with fresh fruit. The shop also has boba tea. The prices were more than $7 but the serving size was large, so we decided to split one. We chose the Oreo ice cream dessert. Once ordered, the employees had a cup of cream and Oreos and put on a frozen block. They chopped and spread the ice cream many times until it reached the perfect consistency. It only took about 2 minutes. Then when ready, they spread it thin and rolled it into lines and put in a cup. I expected regular ice cream but oh my, it was so rich and creamy! A much deeper rich flavor than regular ice cream. We're hooked! A must try and would recommend this shop.
Very cramped takeout spot, but I can see why everyone was in there! A ton of options for rolled ice cream. There is just one size for everything, so make sure you really want ice cream. The service was incredible. The system they had was amazing from the ordering to the prep in the back, to the rolling and topping. Everyone worked so harmoniously and efficiently. We ordered a mango dragonfruit, chocolate party sundae, and jasmine milk tea boba. Everything was very good!
Friendly staff that helped me decide on what to get, which was the Perfect Pair. It had mangoes and strawberry slices on it, fresh pieces of fruit that paired well with mango and strawberry rolled ice cream. The mango was nice and tart and the strawberries were sweet. Huge portion of rolled ice cream as well.
Stopped by here after dinner in Chinatown. They have a bunch different flavors and combinations and you can even make your own. Nice ambience and you can watch them make your ice cream as you can at most of places like this. Once you figure out what you want, you can order and pay and then pick it up at the end of the counter. You can change anything you want in your selected flavor combination as well. We ordered Starry Sky (dragon fruit and passion fruit) and two Strawberry Love (strawberry vanilla) without any of the toppings instead added mochi and gummy bears. They were a big hit. The ice creams were creamy and soft with excellent flavor. The store was very clean and the staff were very helpful and professional. The average price for an ice cream was around $8 which seems on par with other ice cream places. The kids really enjoyed their ice creams and if you are in the area and want some rolled ice cream, I would give this place a try.
Best roll ice cream I ever had. The ice cream is so good. It is pricy but worth every bite. The menu is huge. This place gets packed. Service is fast! Highly recommend if you go to China town.
Love this place!! They have a large variety of rolled ice cream flavors at a fraction of the cost (around $6-8). So affordable!! I got the Oreo rolled ice cream, and they completed my order within a few minutes! They are incredibly efficient and have a lot of chefs behind the see through counter, so you can watch them making your rolled ice cream in action! Perfect for a hangout or a quick dessert after a meal in Chinatown.
Legend tasty house has some very tasty rolled ice cream in Chicago Chinatown! My personal favorite is the Pink Lady strawberry rolled ice cream. No complaints about the service. Ambiance is very similar to your local ice creamery! They also offer a formidable selection of milk teas and specialty drinks and smoothies.
For a long time I avoided coming here because I thought it may be overrated and a tourist attraction. But I see I was completely wrong. When you first come it may seem intimidating because it's always busy but don't be alarmed the lines move fast. I ordered the Thai ice cream w/ mochi and my partner got the dragon fruit / passion fruit w/ mochi. Both were phenomenal, but my favorite has to go to the Thai ice cream. I have a huge sweet tooth so this definitely filled my craving for the night. read more

Honestly, I think it's my fault for not trying their ice cream. It looked appealing, smelled appealing, and probably tasted amazing. But of course I had to get bubble tea. There is a self service kiosk if you do not want to talk to people. Either way, service is incredibly fast. Tea didn't taste anything special to me, and I think I am just being a negative nancy, but it was too sweet for my appeal. It was not worth the price. The milk did not taste exactly fresh as well, and had an odd aftertase. I want to come here again, because I am sure there is so much better than the experience I had only today. read more
The "ice cream roll" is very similar to Chinese frozen yogurt. It was my first time trying it, and it was better than I expected. Perfect Pair: Judging from the picture, I thought it would be very hard, but the bottom was actually quite smooth and creamy, similar to regular ice cream. The sweet and sour mango flavor and fruity aroma were the dominant notes, perfectly complemented by strawberry pieces. The mango pieces as toppings were quite sweet, but the strawberries weren't very fresh. Avocado: The avocado flavor was naturally clear and not too sweet. The mochi tasted cheap, and I had no desire to try it. read more

This spot was amazing!! We all moved back from Shanghai a couple years ago so naturally we had to meet at a Chinese spot and this one did not disappoint. We got soup dumplings, beef braised Taiwan noodles, pan fried dumplings, wood ear mushrooms, baozi and crab rangoons. We left nothing behind and even ordered more. Love that you can order at the kiosk and then sit down and wait for your number to be called. Highly recommend this spot to anyone in the area! read more
This place was recommended by our waiter from lunch. He raved about the fresh fruit options. There's street parking outdoors, depending on the time of day (it gets crowded on Wentworth!). Choose from combos on the menu or mix and match. I had the strawberry mango and my daughter had a dragon fruit/passion fruit combo. We loved it! Service is quick. Prices are reasonable. There were enough seats to accommodate those who chose to dine in. We look forward to returning! read more
Came after dinner and it was the perfect sweet treat. They have plenty of flavors and you can mix up the toppings that are on it if you'd like. Waited a bit for the rolled ice cream, but because the employees are creating 2 at a time and it takes a bit to roll. They have tables around where you can sit and enjoy. Super yummy, will be going back! read more
There were so many rolled ice cream places in Chinatown. My friends and I decided to go to this one on a whim. The three of us decided to share one to satisfy our sweet tooth. We got the Matcha Queen. I really liked it! It wasn't too sweet and was strong in green tea flavor. There were small strawberry bits mixed in the ice cream. It was around ~$7 or so. Not bad for the amount of ice cream...plus the amount of work that goes into making it! read more
I have been here a few times since it opened and the quality has gone down. Back then, they would only use fresh fruit and cream, but now they barely add fruit and just use flavoring. It's not the worst though, and would satisfy if you're craving a cold sweet treat. read more

This is our usual spot for post dinner dessert craving. Tried the strawberry mango rolled ice cream and tiger king boba this time. Not much to comment on the ambiance since we always order on the go and the service is always very fast. read more
AMAZING! I always stop here when in china town and it never disappoints. Fruit is always fresh and the ice cream always hits the spot. I can never finish the whole thing so my bf finishes it for me + his own haha. It is a little wait when we go but worth it because they are making it with care. See menu for all the different flavors and options they have. read more

I was in need of an afternoon pick me up. We walked by Legend Tasty House and saw that they had boba tea so I decided to stop in because I figured I could order a coffee milk tea. What I didn't realize is that Legend Tasty House is more of a rolled ice cream joint (no pun intended haha) that just also happens to have boba tea and smoothies. The line was extremely long and I thought about leaving because I wasn't sure how long the wait would be, but I decided to stay. The line to place orders moved relatively fast, but it was waiting for orders that took the most time. I browsed the menu and saw they had a Coffee & Nutella Smoothie (D21). When I ordered it, I didn't realize that it was a "smoothie" (more like a milkshake). It wasn't what I was expecting, but it was very good! I got the caffeine fix that I was needing. They had upbeat pop music playing, but it was kind of loud. You can watch the employees make and roll the ice cream and it is a cool process. It took 15 minutes to get my smoothie. My drink was tasty, but I wouldn't wait that long again for one drink. Since it's so busy, it's hard to get a table. You can order online, so that may be the way to go if you're short on time. read more
Omg! This place is a hidden gem in the bustling Chinatown. The combinations of icecreams they have are great! We tried the rolled ice cream and it was very flavorful, came with amazing toppings and was too cute to eat. The service is pretty fast! The ambience is that of a typical icecream store with bright lighting and lots of seating. We tried the mango tango rolled icecream, flower world rolled icecream and Hello! Taro rolled icecream. The flower world rolled iceccream just blew my mind. The combination of dragonfruit and mango was so good, I never thought those flavors would work well together. The Mango tango was great too! Reminded me a lot of the Alphonso mango. The Hello! Taro was interesting and came with great toppings, especially the cute panda cookies. A must visit, especially after eating spicy food. read more

This place is often intimidatingly packed with folks in Chinatown looking for dessert, but I'm really glad we stopped here to get rolled ice cream because I've been curious abt trying rolled ice cream at this stretch of places along Wentworth that usually boast a crowd and many rolled ice cream flavors. There was a line but I grabbed a table while my friend waited to order and I felt the wait was very reasonable / felt pretty quick. We got one of the rolled ice cream flavors with dragon fruit, and my friend felt that there wasn't a very strong dragon fruit flavor. The flavor is mostly milky and creamy despite the fun, bright color of the ice cream. I personally don't mind that - I loved the milky flavors and would go again, but warning anyone who is looking for a strong dragon fruit flavor that they will likely be disappointed. I'd def go again when I'm in the area and in the mood for a light dessert. I also love the mochi that came on top - so good. read more

This placed was packed for a regular Tuesday afternoon! They had back to back orders and so many options to choose from. I chose their mango with dragon fruit. Uff! The bold flavor of the mango and dragon fruit!!! If the place weren't so busy with orders, I would have definitely ordered another one. read more

Loveddd ittt!!!! It's interesting bc the times we've been here, I've always got their smoothies and I was fine with that. But my husband pressured me to get their rolled ice cream this time and I loved it. Can't wait until we go again Also, it is always busy so you may have to wait a lil bit to get your order but I think they do their best with the wait times. And I love how most of them wear masks and gloves. read more
Located on Wentworth Avenue, this cozy ice cream shop normally has a long line of customers on hot days. They offer a variety of flavors including dragon fruit, avocado, green tea, or passion fruit. The menu shows colorful photos of different flavor combinations. This trendy shop offers an interesting live show of preparing your rolled ice cream. A staff member pours a flavored liquid onto a round freezing plate. Then proceeds to mix and flatten and the roll up the flavored ice cream into a cup. Usually there's a mound of whipped cream and toppings. I chose mango and it was delicious and refreshing. At the end of this video of my adventures on Sunday, there is an ice cream segment.

It was family night and we went to Universoul Circus. Then afterward I wanted ice cream. My Love said I'm going to put you on to a spot and off we went to China town.. This placed was PACKED but they moved expeditiously to get our orders prepared. The wait was not long at all. I had never seen rolled ice cream and I had never heard of this place. This ice cream parlor has a Cold Stone Creamery vibes with it being soft serve. But other than that totally different than any other ice cream parlor I have visited. This ice cream was EXTREMELY good!!! The kids and I truly enjoyed it!! I would definitely go back. ENJOY read more

We stopped in here and it had a long line. Although, the line was worth it. We ordered the Nutella banana rolled ice cream. I'd definitely come back to try some other flavors. read more
