    Teenie weenie ice cream cup
    Stuart O.

    Very yummy, "homemade" ice cream. We were at the south Miami Beach location. The ice cream is tasty, a bit sweet for my taste, and they have 'only' 16 flavors. Only one chocolate based flavor. But, still yummy!

    My fiancé & I came here for dessert and loved it! The young black woman Day working in the store was awesome. I got the rainbow sprinkle cake batter ice cream and liked it. My fiancé got the toro & vanilla ice cream and enjoyed it as well. We would come back again!

    Banana pudding scoop with whipped cream
    Royce D.

    Good ice cream in South Beach. I ordered the banana pudding scoop with whipped cream on top. The banana pudding was delicious, with bits of chewy crust scattered throughout and a nice banana flavor that wasn't too artificial tasting. The price was around $6 for one scoop, and toppings come free. The place has a nice vibe, and the staff is very friendly. The person behind the counter offered her advice on different flavors and gave out free samples. This is definitely the best ice cream shop we stumbled upon in South Beach, not being too touristy. There is limited eating space inside but it's a short walk to the beach.

    Midtown Creamery is social media famous but I had no clue when I decided to stop in for a scoop. I had simply found it on Yelp while browsing for ice cream near my hotel. After dinner one night I came by to satisfy the craving I had been having. The shop is easy to notice right off Collins Ave and has a neon sign on their front window along with a few outdoor seats. The customer service wasn't the best. No hello when I first walked in. The lady at the register made it known that didn't "work there" but was running the cash register at the time. And honestly, you could tell. Their creative ice cream flavors and their funky rice cereal treat cones and cups are what they are known for. They also have a good bit of toppings to choose from (unlimited) and samples were offered. I can't remember what flavor I got but it was pink and green swirled and I opted for the lucky charm cereal on top in a basic cup (their recommendation). I didn't have the appetite for anything larger and this turned out to be just enough. It was sweet with some crunch from my lucky charms. Of course, I didn't forget to take some pictures and tag them on IG. I mean, did you really go if you didn't take a pic? I'm sure the kids will love to visit and the ice cream will hit the spot.

    Banana pudding
    Ailun H.

    Friendly workers and you can try samples here! I believe there's just one size here, so that's what my friends and I ended up buying. ONE ICE CREAM SCOOP - 6 I got the BANANA PUDDING flavor which was fantastic. There are a good amount of banana chunks in here that was a good mix of sweetness and added texture to the very creamy ice cream. It's not too sweet, so I'd highly recommend it. They are also generous with the amount the scoop out. My friends got the AVE MARIA (guava & cheesecake - pretty fruity and not too sweet), MINT OREO (quite good and would recommend if you don't like chocolate chips), and BISCOFF (yes, like the airplane cookies - graham cracker & honey?). Would recommend these flavors, as well!

    Banana pudding and coffee toffee ice cream!

    Wow! This is the best ice cream I've ever had!!! I sampled mint Oreo and coffee toffee. Both were amazing but I ended up choosing banana pudding and coffee toffee!! I topped my flavors with a delicious cone! My husband had toffee coffee and condensed milk!!! YUM We also ordered for our parents and they had coconut cream and pecan praline. Everyone loved their ice cream

    Bubble Waffle Cone w/ Rum Raisin & Salted Caramel Biscoff
    Adam B.

    Low key ice cream joint, except for the neon signs. A decent amount of ice cream choices. And lots of fun toppings. Bubble Waffle Cone w/ Rum Raisin & Salted Caramel Biscoff: Had to get the bubble waffle cone since it looked so amazing from the Yelp photos. Mine took a while to make, like 5 minutes, but when it was ready it looked so indulgent. The caramel Biscoff ice cream had a good amount of caramel and nice cookie chunks. The rum raisin ice cream packed a nice kick, as the raisins had a good bit of rum infused. The cereal and candy toppings I chose were fun too, adding a nice texture. The bubble waffle portion not touching the ice was both crispy and fluffy, so great. The bubble waffle touching the ice cream soaked up some melted ice cream and got soggy, so wasn't a fan of the texture.

    Very quality icecream. Not a big shop but the portion size for the price is good. You can get unlimited free toppings and it's a big variety. I definitely recommend and would go back.

    Ashley Y.

    Opens at 6pm on the dot. Really well priced and great flavors that come with unlimited toppings!!!! Mint chocolate chip, cake batter, guava cream cheese, nutella oreo, and muddy coffee - all fantastic flavors. My personal recommendation is the guava cream cheese - such strong and refreshing guava flavors. If you love nutella and chocolate, the nutella oreo is also fantastic.

    Strawberry with gummy bears
    Maggie D.

    If you want a quick sweet treat while visiting Miami Beach, this is your spot! Our group had so much fun choosing between the different flavor and toppings combinations. However, nothing that was ordered or on the menu looked like the example photos - still good, but not the same. I got a small scoop of strawberry with gummy bears and a friend of mine tried the vegan option and reported back that it was delicious. I can't forget to mention that the guy who was working had amazing customer service and made our whole group smile and laugh!

    Midtown creamery was a good find for us while spending the week on south beach. It's really close to the beach, the ice cream here is pretty over the top in terms of flavors and creativity. The ice cream itself was good, not amazing. I had cookies and cream which they said was a crowd favorite. I ordered this crazy concoction where I think you get 3 different kinds of ice cream with all sorts of stuff on it and it was ok maybe less is more for me but the idea was nice! The parking was a major issue for me, we rented a mini car from our hotel and drove down and there wasn't one place to put that thing. Had to bring it back and then walk all the way down but it helped us burn off some of that stuff lol. The absolute best thing about this place is the service, they go above and beyond let you try things aren't pushy or trying to get you out of there just patient and helpful.

    Pecan and Ave Maria
    Melissa M.

    Super friendly workers! Let us try as many flavors as we wanted before deciding what to get. Very cute and artsy decor as well. We ended up getting Ave Maria and pecan which were both delicious. Would definitely come back!

    Today's feels like was 101 degrees, which means I was in desperate need of ice cream! While visiting the south beach my bf and I stopped in to try Midtown Creamery. The sign outside says "bomb-ass ice cream" which caught my attention. When we went in side we were able to try a few different flavors before we ordered. We went in the middle of the afternoon and the service was quick. Our ice cream was very creamy and rich!

The white macadamia cookie was also mid but maybe a little better? I think the cookies are mid because they're meant to be eaten with ice cream? But if you're looking for a really good cookie, this is probably not the place. Perhaps the flavor would be OK in conjunction with the ice cream.

Since the shop was empty, it took several attempts to catch someone's attention when I was ready to order.

The staff is beyond friendly and attentive, often stopping by and not only checking on you but also to simply converse about your meal, opinions on the food, or chat about whatever you want to bring up. That is a level of personalness that just doesn't exist in most restaurants or even the service industry. The decor is soft and inviting; intimate; it has a soft, yellow lighting and the rest of the environment is meant to contrast the lighting. It's a nod to not only the owners' backgrounds and roots, but also to the old school fine dining environments. It set the stage perfectly for what was to come. The tasting menu is 10 dishes and is served in 4 courses (apps, small plates, entrees, dessert), served in a 3 plate course until dessert which is 1 dish. Each dish is unique in its own right, yet contrasts from the others so you don't get fatigue from a single flavor or style. For example, the app course that I had was a wahoo ceviche, a shrimp and green papaya salad, and an endive and sharp cheese salad (served in wrapped endive leaves). They all worked together, but offered vastly different textures and contrasting flavors while feeling like an orchestra working together in your mouth. This experience continued through the entrees and I cannot opine on the dessert (rum cake) because I took it to go because I was so full... which has never happened to me in a tasting menu before. Paya is not only worth consideration in a saturated market of fine dining in Miami, it is one that should be prioritized and experienced as an indulgence of senses and flavors. While it may seem expensive in a vacuum, it is 33-50% cheaper than a slew of other tasting menus in the city and offers more courses for that cheaper price.

For the miami spice starter I tried the ceviche which has great presentation and quite flavorful. As for the main, I got the fish in curry which was a table favorite! The rum cake was his signature dessert like in Mamey... however, unlike Mamey they didn't pour the sauce at the table and mine felt a little lacking something. I think the table pour was nicer and had a little more generous pour. Overall I'd recommend and return.
