    Wow this place is cute! The inside is a faux ice cream truck, which was unexpected but very unique! My partner got cookies and cream milkshake (small) and added cookie dough bits as a topping! I tried some and it was very delicious; the Oreo cookies were small enough go through the straw as well, but weren't super tiny pieces. So I enjoyed getting little chunks of Oreo in the milkshake. Service was prompt and the staff were friendly. This place isn't too far from the locust point boat drop off. There's a few places to sit outside. Can't wait to go back!

    Absolutely yes! This place is conveniently located of a main street and easy to notice. I noticed this place while visiting a popular pizzeria directly across the street. I Googled this place to see if they had dairy free options. I didn't see dairy free options, but I saw plenty of others! As soon as we finished up at the pizzeria, we went over. Spacious parking area, several places to sit w benches and tables for convenience. Would you believe this place had a drive thru! I chose the outdoor walk up window. I greeted the young lady that was working and she was very pleasant. Although they did not have dairy free ice cream, they did have 6 Italian ice options, a few ice cream options and a hella lot of milkshake options. I ordered the Cherry Italian Ice and my son ordered the Twist Ice Cream Cone w Rainbow Sprinkles in a Waffle Cone. This place was very reasonably priced. We received both desserts for under $5 total. I am definitely looking forward to returning back and getting another Italian Ice in a larger size because it was so good that I was finished within 5 minutes! Great neighborhood gem!

    My husband and I have been going to the Miss Twist in Essex for a few years now with some of our best friends. We LOVE their ice cream and knew we had to have them for our wedding day. They were super easy to book for our 10.12.24 wedding, were on time, offered their full menu and the service was great! They were an absolute hit on our wedding day, everyone loved them!! Highly recommend going to either of their locations or booking them for your event!

    This ice cream truck is all over the city. I have an inside joke that she keeps her ears to the streets, so that she can be at every event! Solid soft serve ice cream. I always get the brownie sundae and enjoy it. I definitely need to venture out and try some other treats. This review is less a star because the brownies are not freshly baked. At one point, I was given store bought brownie stops on top of my sundae--- still good, but not amazing.

    This place is a great little gem close to home. I mean who doesn't like either custard style ice cream or slushy? Or both mixed together! My son first got the custard from here and told me I'd love it & the flavors of slushes. The next day we stopped by and to my amazement their prices were good and the chocolate custard was divine! That occurred a few years ago but I somehow missed them for a review. First I will say the people behind the counter are always friendly and greet you when you walk up. They take your order and you pay them they get your items. At first glance this place doesn't look like much but stop by & try it for yourself! Definitely recommend 4/5. Only took off a star for the parking lot situation which is crowded easily. I should also mention they now have a truck that drives the neighborhood although I haven't gotten anything from it yet, I think they were on spot with the truck coming around. We haven't seen one for years. Kudos for that Miss Twist!

    Springtime with #thoseWilliams ‍calls for Watermelon Snow Balls (shaved ice) & Creamsicle Gelati (shaved ice and frozen custard) from @misstwisticecream!! Yummm !! What's UR FAV Snow ball flavor?!?! Mine is egg custard (it's a Bmore thing ). The crew really enjoyed it!! Check them out for your warm weather treats !

    Fantastic little location for soft serve ice cream. The prices were perfect. Under $6 for two cones with sprinkles. There are a few tables with umbrellas if you want to hang out with a few friends and enjoy some ice cream. Would definitely recommend if you are looking for soft serve.

    If you're ever by the Miss Twist truck, stop and get a sundae. You won't be disappointed. Despite having to provide dessert for our office while parked in the rain, Miss Twist did not fail to deliver great customer service and a quality product. The ice cream tastes more like custard, but the reasonable pricing, rich flavor and fresh toppings easily put this ahead of most ice cream trucks. Gummy bear fans rejoice--Miss Twist uses Albanese!

    Tuesday 3/25/25 I…read morefound out about this spot on a Reddit post that was mentioning the best desserts in Maryland. I was in Baltimore so I had to go try it. The spot was hard to locate at first until I realized that it's located in the food market. I came for the popular honey graham ice cream but also for my favorite flavor: cookies n cream. Sadly, they didn't have any cookies n cream at the moment, but luckily they did have the honey graham. The service was solid: the worker was nice and I was able to sample four flavors (key lime pie, honey graham, vanilla bean, and chocolate love) without any issue. After sampling the flavors, I decided to get a triple cup of 2x honey graham and 1x vanilla bean. - The honey graham was like that (I see why it's popular). I let my mom sample it, and she enjoyed it so much that she got her own the next day. - The vanilla bean was pretty good and paired well with the honey graham. This spot has some good ice cream that I'd be open to returning for more (hopefully they have cookies n cream next time).

    It had been awhile since I had some ice cream from Taharka Brothers, so when I went to R. House I…read moreknew this was a perfect opportunity. I usually get the "Honey Graham", but I saw that they now have "Salted Honey Graham" too and I decided to try it. The service was very fast and friendly. Soon as I tried it, I knew I made a great choice. I'll definitely be back!

Arrived in the afternoon during a busy weekend and decided to take out for desserts. My first visit and was underwhelmed by the service received. Rushed and transactional. Packaging was very sloppy and my napoleons were shoved to the side, making the clear clamshells very messy when I arrived home. If only the desserts were saving grace, but was left disappointed as well. As others have mentioned, the pastries do not taste fresh. The ricotta cream in the original cannoli tasted warm and gritty, the shell was stale. I noticed these were sitting out. The puff pastry in the Napoleons were soggy. The cream puffs shell was stale and chocolate topping was super sweet, unfortunately these were far from heavenly. Maybe another day, Vaccaro.

The vibe inside was relaxing. We were here for a few hours enjoying our coffee, tea and desserts and it was a nice place to pass the time on a cold, freezing day. The thing that dropped the review was basically the coffee and desserts. The coffee was fine, but just your standard coffee that you'd find at any gas station. The cannoli was overly sweet and the cookies we ordered felt stale. Interestingly, they charge more for sit down desserts vs. takeout. The servers were very sweet to share that we could order takeout and not have to pay the extra fee. Finally, not sure why, but there was not a lot of heating inside the restaurant. We ate with our jackets on, which was fine. But found that to be a little odd. Nobody seemed to know why they couldn't get the heat on. When it's below freezing, it would be nice to escape the chill. Overall, it was a nice stop. My kids loved it. But it was not without some quirks.
