My friend and I both got the mini sundaes and they were actually so good. The chocolate is so rich and tasty, and the combo with ice cream and fresh walnuts is chef's kiss. Note: Ghirardelli is currently under construction in their original spot at Disney Springs and is now located in "town center" over by Uniqlo and Pandora for the time being. It's in what used to be "Sprinkles".

My favorite thing here are the Twirls, their take on a Blizzard. Soft serve vanilla ice cream blended with your choice of ingredients. I usually get the child size (12 oz), which is just enough for a sweet treat for one, blended with cookie dough! Hubby loves the Butterfinger one. We usually go through the drive-thru, and it's always fairly fast and efficient. Although this location is sometimes staffed with indifferent teenagers, they provide good service (if not the most attentive). There are a few outdoor tables, but we usually just park and sit in the car. There's a huge, free parking lot at the adjacent Winn Dixie grocery store, which makes for good people watching at night. This location is open late, which makes it a great stop after leaving Disney for the day. Everybody can use a little sweet treat after a long day, and Twistee Treat is one of my favorites in Orlando.

Salt & Straw is located in Disney Springs, which is an adventure in itself…read more I was walking to the parking garage when the smell of fresh waffles called me in. I was completely full from dinner, but I just had to stop. It's a whole experience. Once it's your turn, you literally feel like you're the only person in the store. They let you sample as many flavors as you'd like, which makes choosing incredibly difficult! I finally decided on the Sea Salt with Caramel Ribbons in a kid's waffle cone since I was already so full. It was so creamy--the perfect balance of sweet caramel and flaky sea salt, all served in a freshly made waffle cone. I regret nothing. It was the best way to end my night at Disney Springs.

I was so excited when Salt & Straw opened in Orlando after first trying it in California. Their…read moreunique flavor combinations are always fun, and I love that they let you sample before making your final choice. The first thing you'll notice when walking in is the amazing smell of the fresh waffle cones they bake in house. The staff is always friendly and welcoming, and their rewards program is a nice bonus since every purchase earns you points toward free treats. Even though I sample the seasonal flavors, I almost always order a split single scoop of Sea Salt with Caramel Ribbons and Double Fold Vanilla in a chocolate or seasonal waffle cone. It's my perfect combo. Since it's at Disney Springs, it can get pretty busy, especially at night, and since it's a small shop the queue line is usually wrapped outside, but it's absolutely worth the wait. Great ice cream, friendly service, and creative flavors keep me coming back.

I got a milkshake- they upcharge for chocolate syrup in a chocolate shake- they put it in a thin plastic cup, it was 95 plus outside.

It was a cup I even questioned it twice and was told those cups were more expensive so I couldn't have one with a shake. Like even if I paid for it they acted like it was an abomination to even ask. This was pathetic service to argue over a damn cup. Suck less please!

Scoops serves Hershey's brand ice cream. In addition to cups and cones, they also offer ice cream specialties (like banana splits and brownie sundaes), mighty milkshakes, and even specialty hot dogs. My wife and I shared a cup of "Graham Central Station" (graham flavored ice cream with a crunchy graham cracker swirl and chocolate covered honeycomb candies) while our sons shared a cup of "Milk & Cookies" (the super premium version of 'Cookies & Cream'). The ice cream was delicious and really hit the spot after a hot morning by the pool!

This review is long overdue, but as a Dole Whip lover, Swirls on the Water is a must visit for me…read morewhen in Disney Springs. They are a small kiosk in Disney Springs that's...over the water. They typically have a rotating, seasonal menu of Dole Whips and soft serves, with the Dole Whip Flight being a sampler of all they currently have to offer. Definitely my favorite option to order if I have other people there to share with me. The line can get really long and, in the Florida heat, there's little to no shade as you wait. Your dole whip/ice cream is truly the treat and reward you receive at the end. The staff also does a great job of moving the line along, but still keeping it friendly. Be advised that there aren't many table options to sit at directly by the kiosk, so you should be prepared to take your order on the go. If you are a fellow Dole Whip lover visiting Disney Springs or Walt Disney World, Swirls on the Water is a stop worth making. NOTES: You do not need a park ticket to stop by at Swirls on the Water since entry into Disney Springs is free. Also, most Dole Whip items on the menu (minus the Flight) qualify as a snack on the Dining Plan.

My favorite was the orange with vanilla and chocolate sauce, it tasted like a creamsicle. The dole whip does melt fast, especially in the Florida summers.

As a childless (local) couple, we like to split the Rubin. We keep the fries but also order a side of tots. Then we get a chocolate ice cream Sunday, with Carmel and almonds (it's not in the menu-just ask & trust me) It's never soggy. Has great flavor. It's quite large and this fills us both bit never leaves up totally uncomfortably stuffed. It's fun for families, if you go for a birthday or order a kitchen sink it's fun to get recognized and called out. Join in the fun by yelling "the whole can" when someone orders a kitchen sink. It's part of the experience. Yes you can change the toppings if you want or don't want something or have an allergy. Just a heads up, all the surfaces are hard and the kitchen is open so it does get quite loud. It's almost never not loud. Just know that going in

A QR code is located near the front entrance. Mobile order and a window kiosk is available. The window kiosk ONLY does sweet treat, no hot foods. Try to do a reservation to get the "diner" experience. Ambiance: 3.5 stars A well lit diner with tables, seats and bar stools. Can get crowded and loud. We did the window kiosk to try their ice cream cookie sandwich. They have about 12 different flavors and nothing is wildly different. Also, they ONE sugar free option which is Vanilla. Now, you choose the flavor for the chocolate cookie sandwich. A single scoop layered between two chocolate chip cookie - only option. Food: 3 Stars Nothing extraordinary of the coffee ice cream. A good balance of espresso coffee flavor and not overly sweet. It was creamy and cold. It may be homemade. The cookie was not good. More hard and crunchy than soft and pliable. I understand there is a "fine" balance when making cookies for sandwiches. Slightly hard and crunchy so it doesn't break too much but pliable enough to sink your teeth into the dough and ice cream. Each bite push the ice cream out more and more. Also, be prepare to pay about $10. Was it worth it? Maybe... Next time I will try a shake or malt to see how well it is made. Bon appetite!

We stopped in…read moreafter dinner and, although it was chilly, the line was out the door of customers who were equally as eager to end their night with a sweet treat. The line moved at a steady pace and CMs did their best to fill orders as quickly as possible. Overall, a good first experience at Boardwalk Ice Cream. Boardwalk Ice Cream is located along the boardwalk of Crescent Lake at the Boardwalk Inn and Villas resort. The menu boasts many different types of sundaes, milkshakes, and more. The establishment itself doesn't have tables and chairs to eat inside, however, there are several places to sit down outside, on the actual boardwalk. Our order consisted of three sundaes * Surf's Up Sundae * Strawberry Splash Shortcake Sundae * Bayside Brownie A La Mode Sundae All three sundaes were crafted well with tasty ice cream and toppings that lived up their names. The Strawberry Splash Shortcake was my favorite. The large chunks of strawberry shortcake left this sundae unparalleled. Pricing was also fair and the CM building our order did so with care, precision, a smile. Our first visit to Boardwalk Ice Cream was a success. We would definitely return in the future and would highly recommend this spot to anyone frequenting the Boardwalk.
