Pure sugar chaos, childhood nostalgia, and theatrical madness in Coral Springs…read more Walking into Cherry Smash feels like you accidentally stepped into the opening scene of Willy Wonka, right before someone starts singing and a child learns a moral lesson. This place is a local legend, and for good reason. Cherry Smash isn't trying to be sleek, minimalist, or Instagram-neutral. It's loud, colorful, joyful, and slightly unhinged--in the way candy shops should be. You half expect Charlie Bucket to walk in clutching a chocolate bar and a dream. Let's be honest about the ice cream: It's above average. Solid. Creamy. Well executed. No complaints. But that's not why people line up. You come here for the atmosphere. Walls stacked with candy. Colors everywhere. The kind of visual overload that makes adults nostalgic and kids vibrate at unsafe frequencies. And when Halloween hits? Forget it. Cherry Smash decorates like they take October personally. Seasonal commitment at Broadway-production levels. The candy selection is elite--classic, modern, obscure, and delightfully questionable. Yes, they have bubble gum cigarettes, which feel like a time capsule from an era when adults shrugged and said, "Eh, they'll be fine." It's kitschy, it's ridiculous, and it absolutely belongs here. Seating is limited, but honestly? That's part of the charm. This isn't a linger-for-hours café. It's a pop-in, light-up-your-inner-child, grab-something-sweet-and-go experience. The kind of place where standing is acceptable because you're too busy smiling anyway. Cherry Smash isn't just an ice cream shop--it's a mood, a memory, and a permission slip to enjoy something unapologetically fun in a world that desperately needs more of that.

Honestly, I wasn't much of a fan. Parking can be a little…read moretricky, there is a parking lot, but it's shared by all the merchants in the plaza. You have the option to order at the window outside, or, go into the shop to order. The moment you walk in, it very very overwhelming. Tons of trinkets, posters, colors, signs and memorabilia's and figurines everywhere! The more you look, the more you'll see. Staff seemed like they were there just for their paychecks, and not really caring for the customer service or offering their opinion or recommendations, the night we visited there was a good amount of patrons. There's seating off the right side of the shop and a few towards the back. They have a very wide selection of ice cream flavors. I settled for a dulce deleche, and it was just ok. We ordered that, and I took some pictures and left. The interior was too much for me, personally. Way too much going on.

The place is bright, airy, spotless, and instantly puts you in a better mood, which is dangerous when ice cream decisions need to be made responsibly. Now let's talk about the service. Second to none. Olympic-level. Borderline aggressive generosity. The guy helping us (I'm sorry I didn't catch your name, Ice Cream Sensei ) kept offering samples like he was personally offended by the idea that I hadn't tried every flavor yet. I'm pretty sure I consumed the equivalent of a medium cup in samples alone, and he was still like, "You sure? One more?" And here's the thing. The recommendations were spot on. You can tell this dude is genuinely passionate about the in-house made ice cream. These flavors are thoughtfully crafted, smooth, balanced, and most importantly, no weird artificial colors or chemical nonsense. If the ice cream world had a clean ingredients hall of fame, this place would have its own wing. After tasting my way through half the menu, I completely understand why this is the top-rated ice cream shop in Florida and somehow also gunning for the top spot in the entire country. Ambitious? Yes. Earned? Also yes. Do yourself a favor. Go chill at Let's Chill, eat irresponsibly, and then rate them high because they deserve it, and because you'll feel guilty if you don't after all those samples.

Let's Chill is my all time favorite ice cream shop!…read more **Which is a strong sentence coming from me.** I love Let's Chill because their ice cream is homemade. Made with better ingredients, and without the use harsh dyes or chemicals. My all time favorite ice cream flavor is Cookie Monster. (Also Cookie Dough and Cookies & Cream) I've always hesitated reaching for it because of the harsh chemicals and dyes. With Let's Chill ice cream, I get the guilt free feeling of enjoying the blue ice cream colored with Blue Spirulina instead of harsh blue dye. Blue Spirulina is also very healthy for you and has a lot of health benefits. Let's Chill's Service: The service is always amazing no matter who is helping at the counter. Whether I'm typing in my rewards, or asking to try all of their flavors, I've never experienced anything but kind service. The Ambiance: Entering the shop is like entering my friends living room, but with a giant freezer of ice cream. There are games, a chalkboard, and different kinds of seatings for anyone's preference. I usually visit Let's Chill around once a month so the next time you're in the mood for ice cream, Let's Chill. ;)

Cute little spot in Coral Springs. I like that the hours of…read moreoperation is a little later on weekends, giving everyone an opportunity to make it for some late night treats. We stopped in spontaneously few nights ago, and I was truly impressed by the variety of flavors of ice cream. I opted for the cappuccino crunch, which had a very intense coffee infused flavor that I absolutely loved! They offer more than ice cream, I suppose if you're not in the mood, you could get shakes, brownies or cake pops, which seems to be all great options. The staff is the younger heads, and they were super friendly and patient with the customers. The one little issue I had were the tables and counter tops weren't very clean, they definitely could be wiped down more often, perhaps after customers leave the spot they ate on. Several tables had melted ice cream and crumbs left behind. I'll definitely be coming back however, for their flavor options.

I recommend for you to use the app so you can get discounts. They are usually open until 11pm on the weekends. I usually don't eat there I take my ice cream to go but if you would like to eat there you can sit inside our outside. They have seasonal ice cream but I didn't see it this time. I noticed that they have ice cream cakes now. This place has reasonable prices and they offer unlimited samples.

It helps, I think, to know Jeremiah was a bullfrog. One of my favorite Jelati flavors here is a masterpiece called "Scoop Froggy Frog." Scoop Froggy Frog combines Oreo and Mint flavors for a delightful treat. On my most recent visit I had a Lemon Jelati made with vanilla Soft Serve Ice Cream and added a "Layer-In."Chocolate Soft Serve Ice Cream is also available. The night of my most recent visit I went rogue and finally added a Layer-In to my treat concoction. There are about six (6) Layer-In choices. Well, "layer-in" choices are: Oreo cookies crumbles, Butter Cookie crumbles, mini Hershey's chocolate chips, Rainbow Sprinkles, and Rainbow Nerds, I believe. I read that some of the other Jeremiah's location even offer Boba layer-ins. So glad I tried my Lemon Jelati this way for a change up.

We opted for the bubble gum Italian ice for the kids and I enjoyed a Brooklyn cheesecake ice cream. Both were refreshing and delicious. She has the cleanest ice cream shop I've ever been in and I love the seating style. You will not be disappointed if you stop in! We will be making frequent stops especially during the hot summer days to come!

Uncle Louie G was founded in 1959 in Brooklyn, New York. The first Uncle Louie G opened in 1997 in…read moreProspect Park. Dino Russo took over in 2009 when his brother, the company founder, retired. At that time all of the Uncle Louie G locations were in New York or New Jersey. In seven years, he was able to grow Uncle Louie G from eight locations to more than 50 through franchising. This franchise of Uncle Louie G's opened in April on Sample Rd in the same plaza as Runyon's. It is owned by Andrea Mormile and her sister, Denise from Brooklyn, New York. The sisters were inspired to open Uncle Louie G's when they couldn't find the kind of icy treats they grew up on. Uncle Louie G''s menu includes 47 flavors of Italian ice and 33 flavors of ice cream including vegan, dairy free, and sugar free. They also sell ice cream cakes, milkshakes, smoothies, ice coffees, Belgian waffle sundaes, and ice cream nachos. For quality control everything's made in Staten Island, New York. They use the best ingredients like real fruit for Italian ice instead of sugar and artificial flavoring. The premium ice cream is 14 percent butterfat and the cheesecake pieces are made from scratch. I had the pleasure of meeting Denise when I stopped in on a steamy Sunday afternoon. The Italian ice is displayed in the cases closer to the door while the ice cream is further down. Ice cream flavors included Louie Big Blue, Brooklyn Cheesecake, and Apple Pie while Italian ice flavors included Oreo cookie dough, chocolate jelly ring, cherry chip, and Italian Dream. I was in the mood for ice and I sampled the cannoli, honey doo, and spumoni. I ended up choosing the spumoni but they were all great. I was impressed with how spot on the flavors tasted. I am still thinking about the honey doo. Sizes come in Brooklyn small ($3.50), small ($4.00), medium ($6.00), and large ($8.00). You can also purchase pints, quarts, and party buckets. I love that they have unique flavors that not everyone else has. This is a welcome addition to Coral Springs as the scorching summer rolls in. Check them out and welcome them to the neighborhood.

The Magic Cow in Coral Springs has a 4.8-star Yelp rating, and their sister store in Davie is apparently one of the top 10 ice cream shops in the entire United States. So naturally, I had to see if the local legend lived up to the hype. (Spoiler: it did. And then some.) The moment we walked in, I was hit with that nostalgic mix of sugar, laughter, and magic that says you're about to make a very good life decision. The owner greeted us like old friends -- warm, funny, and clearly passionate about what he does. You can tell every scoop that leaves that counter has been crafted with pride. Now, about the ice cream. I went with the Carrot Cake flavor -- and let me tell you, it wasn't just ice cream; it was an experience. Folded into it were ribbons of caramel and bits of pie crust that somehow made me rethink all my previous dessert choices in life. One bite in, and I'm pretty sure I saw colors brighter than usual. My wife went for a combo of Better Batter Cake Carnival and Chocolate Batter Better, and to call it "excellent" would be an understatement. This flavor pairing was pure joy in stereo. I'm pretty sure she stopped listening to me talk for a good five minutes, which is the ultimate compliment to any dessert. Bottom line: The Magic Cow isn't just living up to its reputation -- it's churning out happiness, one scoop at a time. If you haven't been, fix that immediately. Your taste buds will thank you, your diet will forgive you (eventually), and your inner child will do a happy dance.

A cute lil ice cream spot in Sunrise!…read more I've seen Phuse pop up on my Yelp feed before but in all pink so I was surprised to see this spot pop up with all blue. This is a newer location to the other Phuse spot in Plantation. Hidden in a plaza on University Dr, you can spot it right away if you're looking for it because its blue interior is easy to spot! Parking is super easy and we were greeted so warmly upon entry. We came here for a post-dinner treat & loved all the flavors you could choose from. They had a Guinness stout, which was so good so we had to get it, on top of a blue cone to match the interior, of course! I was also eyeing the macaron ice cream sandwiches which I've seen on their Yelp page and got the pistachio and peanut butter cup ones. They were both good but some of them in the case were cracked and the macaron itself was a little soft when we ate them. There wasn't any place inside to enjoy the treats so it seems more like a grab and go spot, so just keep that in mind! Overall, a cute place to drop by and get some treats! Don't forget to take a photo fo your sweets with their cute interior.

Let's start here: I wanted to love Fyr & Ice. The name sounds fiery and cool -- like the kind of…read moreplace where flavor meets flair. Instead, it felt like the kitchen and the dining room were in a long-term relationship that's stopped communicating. We began with the crispy tofu, which sounded promising -- I pictured something light, golden, and seasoned with purpose. What arrived was tofu on life support. Over-battered, under-seasoned, and fried like it had wronged somebody. I kept waiting for flavor to show up, but it must've taken the night off. Now the chili sauce the tofu was served with was very tasty, it was just that there was so little of it. Not enough to make up for the overpowering batter on the tofu. Then came my kimchee ramen -- a dish that started strong with that first bite of warm broth and tangy kick. But then, plot twist: the kimchee was cold, sitting inside the soup like it refused to participate. The beef had been cooked so long it could survive a hurricane, and the egg... well, let's just say it had passed "soft-boiled" about three minutes ago. My wife, however, lucked out with the udon and shrimp tempura -- nicely done, well-balanced, and clearly made by someone who still believes in flavor. Now, the atmosphere deserves its own mention. The main dining area has all the warmth of a tech startup break room -- clean but cold, not exactly cozy. Then there's the back room, which looks like someone's garage got repurposed into a hangout spot. There's a miniature pool table, an even smaller ping pong setup, and a couch that feels like it was borrowed from your cousin's first apartment. It's quirky, sure, but also kind of confusing -- like they couldn't decide if they were a restaurant, a boba lounge, or a college dorm common room. So yeah, three stars -- because Fyr & Ice isn't bad, it's just having an identity crisis. It used to be so much better and could be again if someone decides to care again. With a little care and a lot more seasoning, this place could go from "meh" to "must-try." For now, it's a decent stop if you're hungry, curious, and not expecting emotional warmth from your ramen.

Although I'm an ice cream connoisseur. I was greeted right away and the nice girl behind the counter offered to give sample of any ice cream that I would like to try. I tried a few of the unique ones which was quite delicious like the rum banana bread and island poundcake. Since Rum Raisin is my all-time favorite, I went with the Appleton Rum Raisin (first time trying this version) and Guinness Stout in a waffle cone. Both were creamy flavorful and delicious. The waffle cone was also fresh, perfect thickness, with a nice crunch and held my fast melting Rum Raisin very well. Glad I got it. Wonderful experience as the service was great. This shop isn't big and doesn't have seating areas. Purchase and go. Looking forward to going back to try their other flavors. Highly recommend!
