Sea Salt Caramel
Art C.

An excellent ending We visited this newly opened ice cream shop after dinner. We used to go to the Orange Octopus on Siesta Key over by Captain Curt's which was always busy, this location not so much. We were the only customers. The ice cream scooper person was very happy to see us, and we spent more than a few minutes having fun talking. I got a scoop of their Sea Salt Caramel, and it was an excellent ending to the night. This location is next to Darwin's over by Chili's and Trader Joe's. They don't have as many selections as the other location, but there are still lots of choices. There's more parking.

The ice cream was the best!!!! Service was great, offered free samples of all the ice creams. The salted caramel was to die for!

Hand dipped ice cream and milkshakes. Friendly employees were eager to serve. Prices were very reasonable and the parlor was tidy and clean, located next to chili's and across the street from Walt's Seafood restaurant.

I comment the ice cream and not the scooper! Always delicious and I am thrilled they are next door to my favorite Peruvian restaurant!

The literal best ice cream I have ever had. My husband and were jonesing for some ice cream. We did…read morea Yelp search and this was nearby. Best decision ever. We kept sampling and each one we tried was not only excellent, but better than the next, but also perfect in its own way. Thankfully there was the option for a flight, so we got to have four different scoops. We took a pint home, and this was us exercising self control. The staff is amazing, the locale is bright and airy. Absolutely incredible. Come check them out. You will find something you love.

We were helped by someone I believe was named Julie or Julia (I'm not great with names), and we ended up chatting a bit because she used to live in New York too. She was so warm with the kids and let us sample just about every flavor, which made the whole experience feel really personal. The ice cream itself is fantastic--creative flavors, but also genuinely delicious. You can taste the homemade quality in every bite. I had coconut and dark chocolate, the kids had vanilla, dark chocolate, and watermelon mint, and my husband also really enjoyed his choices (though I can't remember exactly what he picked). Overall, it was just a really pleasant stop with great ice cream and exceptional service. It's also right next to Origin Pizza, which is another spot we'd definitely recommend.

Any ice cream can be made into soft serve. Flavors are amazing! I had Cookie Crunch with Biscoff cookies! Delicious!!!!! The place is light, airy and the owners (?) were pleasant and accommodating.

They had lots of flavors, and the service was appreciated. I had a small cup of Key Lime Pie and spumoni. It was a generous cup for a small. Both flavors were very fulfilling. I preferred the spumoni as I enjoyed the combination of flavors. The Key Lime Pie could have contained a little more of the pie crust flavoring. I also tried the brown sugar cinnamon and chocolate brownie with a marshmallow meringue. The brown sugar cinnamon was my favorite flavor. It was a great blend of brown sugar and cinnamon. It was superb. The chocolate brownie was good too, but I did not like the marshmallow meringue as it was a little overpowerful with the ice cream. Will I go back? I would.
