    I love ice cream and this place has very good ice cream. The high reviews are definitely true. I ordered a small and it was pretty generous. I absolutely loved the flavor and the color! The ice cream tastes fresh and it was good. You can tell they put time into developing the flavors and texture. The ice cream is thick and creamy, it coats your mouth. The ice cream is also very affordable, not too expensive! I recommend this place for families, casual dates, a group outing, or a sweet treat! It's a really unique store, with unique ice creams. I like the different types of ice cream they have and flavors. They have their own private parking lot, so you don't have to worry about parking space. There's plenty of tables inside and out for you to sit and enjoy. I like getting ice cream and eating it outside on a warm day.

    Cold creamy goodness served up with a smile (under the mask). Oh, was this place a wonderful surprise for a weeknight after-dinner treat. They have so many options..tons of ice cream flavors and a bunch of food items (ie walking tacos in Doritos bags). They have fresh fruit popsicles and fresh fruit bowls as well. I don't love fruit, so I was just there for the ice cream! My favorite flavor was "frappuccino". They have cool, unusual flavors like "queso" and "tequila" too. They texture is super creamy and I love that its not super sweet. So glad to have found this little gem.

    Paleteria Dulce Vida is another Mexican ice cream place in Columbus. It's located in a pretty good area for such a place. This area of Columbus has lots of Hispanic immigrants and it gets a lot of them here, which is a good sign. If they think it's good, anyone else probably should also. There's lots of flavors including non dairy flavors. If you don't know what paleteria means, it will help to learn before you come. It's Spanish for frozen dessert. There's a pretty big selection of ice cream and popsicles. Among the flavors are the usual like coconut, and the more exotic like chili. The ice cream is about $2 per scoop. It's about $2 for one popsicle, which isn't bad. The paletas are good but also be sure to have the ice cream, or the sabores. It also comes in non dairy flavors. There's some unique flavors like soursop, which is kind of like a pear but sweeter. If you want good Mexican ice cream come to Paleteria Dulce Vida. It has pretty friendly service even if you aren't a speaker of Spanish. With all the attention this kind of ice cream is getting around Columbus you should try it from this.

    Get bored with the typical ice cream shop, then come and check this place out. Not only they have tons of flavors to choose from, they do have some unique flavor that you may not find from other places. And no need to stress out from picking, the lady is happy to offer you some sample to try them all. Beside ice cream, they have popsicles, drinks, and lot of Mexican snacks that I never heard of. This colorful haven will be my to go place for desserts and snacks.

    The mangonada which consists of mangoes, mango sorbet, tamarind sauce and candy pieces is delicious. The staff working that day was very friendly and offered multiple samples. The scoops are generous and the prices are affordable. The elote ice cream tastes just like the corn. There is also pine nut ice cream that is delicious too.

    Generous sizes. It tastes like the ingredients are fresh. The staff is very friendly, doesn't rush you and the climate is comfortable. This place is low-key and certainly not obnoxiously pretentious like some first name ice cream spots in Cbus. The ice cream is simple which is powerful. But you can get Extravaganza with added sprinkles. Eating this tastes like nostalgia. I may not have grown up with a true paleteria in my day but this place tastes like Home!

    Wow, this place is so cute! I love how colorful the inside of the shop is and how the staff greets you. Dulce Vida has any craving available right in front of you! I decided to go with the Mangonada which is mango sorbet, mango chunks, chumoy sauce and tajin! It was the perfect amount of sweet and spicy. Best thing is that it is only $4.99 on Tuesdays!

    My friend and I stopped here for dessert after visiting IKEA while in Columbus from out of town. We…read morewere looking for a dessert spot and decided to give this place a try. I am a big fan of frozen yogurt in traditional, soft, serve ice cream, so I thought we would really enjoy this place. It's located in a busy shopping plaza and was quite crowded when we arrived. The shop specializes in only different flavors of soft serve, although it is not self serve. I tried the strawberry and peanut butter, soft serve with sprinkles, and my friend tried the traditional vanilla. The prices were very reasonable for ice cream, with a kids dish, being four dollars and a regular dish being five. Unfortunately, I really did not enjoy the consistency of this soft serve. It was not like anything I had ever had, with a cross between traditional, soft serve, a whipped topping you would find on a birthday cake, and a custard. I ended up eating the sprinkles off of mine and then throwing the rest away. My friend also remarked that the consistency was very strange and felt somewhat chemical to her, but she did finish her entire cup. I definitely would not return because I did not enjoy the consistency of this product, but it was very crowded, so I have to believe that other people do enjoy this, and maybe it was just me being picky.

    This cute little ice cream shop definitely cured my sweet tooth. Quick service and very nice decor.read more
