    I hit the jackpot coming here!! Man they have so many unique flavors. They will also allow you to sample any ice cream before you make your purchase. They have ice cream, smoothies and juice! Depending on the day they also have cake. I tried the strawberry Hennessy and I could taste the alcohol. I decided to go with the pound cake instead and it was scrumptious! I loved the cake pieces.

    This place is great. The inside has a lot of seating too and it looks nice. Their bun and cheese flavor is my favorite, yall should try it.

    Sweet potato cake and rum raisin and bun and cheese ice cream

    I was planning a visit to the area and looked for things to do and eat and discovered this place. What?!?! Two of my favorite words: Caribbean and Ice Cream?!?! I know, that's technically three words, but who's counting. Anyway, what kind of culinary wizardry is this? I had to find out! We stopped in on Sunday afternoon and the space is sparsely furnished, with a cheesy fake palm tree and reggae music videos playing on a TV. There are plush, but supportive, living room chairs so it gives the impression that you will want to get comfortable and stay a while. Sounds Caribbean to me. The nice lady at the counter greeted us with a smile and quickly offered to allow us to taste any of the flavors we were curious about. Thankyaverymuch! Don't mind if I do! I targeted the more exotic flavors, like Bun and Cheese, Rum and Raisin, Tamarind Sorbet and Sour Sop. Each was like a small taste of Jamaica! I was hooked and the attendant waited patiently for me to resolve my dilemma of which flavor to select and what size. I finally settled on a mixture of Bun and Cheese and Rum and Raisin, which are fantastic together! Then, I saw the sweet potato cake that was sitting near the register, taunting me, unmercifully. At this point, my inner AND outer fat boy double-teamed my weakened dietary resolve and I caked, I mean, I caved. Let's be clear. The small samples are good for a start but they do no justice to the true flavor and texture of the ice cream. You really have to get a scoop to allow the creamy, smoothness of the flavors to really shine. The rum and raisin were perfectly balanced, although I would have preferred a few more raisins in the mix. The Bun and Cheese really succeeded in capturing that traditional Easter treat flavor. However, the mixture of the two, when added with the sweet potato cake, was just plain magical. Its a good thing I don't live here because I would probably be back tomorrow and probably the next day and so on, until i tried a scoop of all those flavors because they are really that good. Well done!

    Babyyyyyy!!! This place was so nice, I had to visit twice! I went yesterday and then took my family back today. I love the flavors. So refreshing. Nicole & Mike were awesome. Very friendly. They gave suggestions on the flavors & which one was their favorite. The first time I went, I had watermelon & mango. Oh my goodness!! It was so good. My second time, I tried a few others, they were so good. But I went back to the watermelon & mango. This time, I took my Tajin seasoning and sprinkled some on top. Yummy!!! Now, about their cookies!!! (Dancing and eating one now. lol.) They are so good. I waited for them to cook. That's how bad I wanted one. They didn't disappoint. I bought 4 of them. The shop was very clean. Cute Caribbean colors for the counter. Plenty of seating and parking. Nice Caribbean music playing. I AM GOING BACK!! AGAIN AND AGAIN.

    Single scoop with Dragon Stout & Rum Raisin

    Step into Localicuous & you'll feel like you've been transported to the Caribbean with their delicious ice cream. It's right next to Ole NC BBQ....their signage wasn't up yet when we went. There definitely is an island vibe with the friendly service, colorful decor and Bob Marley playing in the background. The star attraction is the ice cream which is brought in from Florida. Here you'll find flavors that you'll only find in the islands, like the Coffee Rum, Banana Bread Rum, Grapenuts, Bun & Cheese. They have the standard flavors too for the traditionalists. Highly recommend the Dragon Stout & Rum Raisin (& I hate raisins!). The rum & stout flavors really come thru in the ice cream! It's evident that the ice creams have a higher butterfat content with the silky texture and it's slower to melt.

    I'd walked by The Parlour many times but recently noticed their vegan flavors advertised on the…read moresidewalk board so I had to go in. Because, get this, there are several non sorbet options! (I love sorbet, but sometimes you want rich ice cream). Besides chocolate mint and Vietnamese coffee, there's an enticing lime sorbet and a rotating seasonal flavor, which in late July was a blackberry crumble that is delicious with little bits of crumble ribboned throughout (I love to chew my ice cream). A single scoop is actually quite generous and only $5. Service is speedy and friendly. The seating is plentiful and it was such a hot day, I opted to stay inside rather than walk around and pretend I was eating gelato in a small Medieval town in Tuscany.

    I stopped in on the first night of a conference downtown and thought "I'd love to try this place…read moreout!" At lunch, I passed the A-frame they had outside and saw fellow conference attendees walk in. "Alright," I said. "I'll check them out later." I came in with one of my new connections and we happily chose our desserts. I chose their seasonal Girl Scout Mint flavor and my new connection chose a milkshake. Parlour staff let us sample the flavors they had in stock to help us make informed decisions. I appreciated it. Seating is in an adjacent room. The place carries a kid-friendly vibe and I saw one child happily enjoying her ice cream. I'll definitely be back next time I'm in DT Durham.

We were not disappointed. They had over 50 flavors of ice cream and some unusual flavors like pine nut and soursop. They also had lots of flavors of popsicles that could be customized with toppings. The service was friendly and helpful. My only bits of feedback were that the ice cream flavors were not labeled, and there were no prices on the menu board. I would definitely return to try some of the popsicle flavors or unique ice cream flavors.

I personally ordered the sundae, and was super impressed by the HEFTY scoops that the scooper gave us. It's definitely a sharing size place. First off, there are so many flavors! There's a bunch of options, almost too many to choose from. We got a few of the fruit flavors, but it was hard to choose from tasty options like tres leches and caramel. I'm giving four stars because the food was reasonably priced, but the ice cream isn't as creamy as I would have likedd. Overall, the vibe in here is fun! Think large butterfly mural and bright colors. This is the perfect place to take a family. I will say it was pretty crowded here on a weeknight, but there's actually a good bit of seating in the bar top. Lastly, Paletaria La Moncarca Mochoacana is located in a great shopping plaza that has ample parking, and has lots of interesting restaurants and shopping places nearby. I mean... who else dosen't want a treat after shopping at the TJ Maxx?

If you're as indecisive as I am, they'll gladly let you sample a few before committing. The shop itself is bright, clean, and welcoming, with plenty of indoor and outdoor seating.

Everything I sampled was delicious, and the scoop I ended up with was rich, creamy, and packed with flavor. You can tell they put a lot of thought into creating combinations that are both creative and genuinely tasty. Whether you're a local or just visiting Durham, Jeni's is absolutely worth a stop for a sweet treat. Great ice cream, great atmosphere, and even better customer service. Bonus points for making a birthday afternoon feel a little more special.

My main qualm with Jeni's is the temperature inside the store; it was freezing inside even though I was fully dressed in business casual with a sweater.

The burgers were flavorful and the meat was well seasoned. I had the Jalapeño Pepper Jack Double and enjoyed it, but I think it needed lettuce and tomato for texture.

The young lady taking my order told me that I couldn't add bacon. I said I would pay (obviously), but she said that they aren't allowed to add bacon. I could only get it plain or with the regular condiments on it. I realize that this is Burger King & I clearly can't have it my way, BUT if you have bacon on other items and you have it in your store, you should allow customers to pay extra to add it to their burger. Anyway, I settled for the chicken strip kid's meal & had to wait 10 minutes for the cashier and her friend in the car in front of me to finish their convo before I could pull up and pay. She rushed me MY order & I pulled off not realizing that my food was old and cold. The strips were hard as rocks and dry, and the fries were just cold. I had to rush back to the hospital to be with my boyfriend. So, I didn't even bother going back to complain. They may not "allow" refunds either, and I didn't want to have to act ugly. Lesson learned & I will never be back.
