    My favorite thing about this ice cream shop is their monthly menu series. Each month they have a themed series of ice cream flavors in addition to their standard menu. This month (May) is flower series. I went with the Saffron milk and wild honey. So good, the honey came through to sweeten up the Saffron milk sherbet. Bright and colorful as well. They allow you to taste test before you pick out your flavor- they actually encourage you to do so. That way you know you'll enjoy your scoop. If you get their app you can earn rewards which is a nice incentive. The service is friendly and helpful. They also have some prepackaged pints to go. Nice add to Montgomery Village.

    Very unique flavors and very good ice cream. and they let you sample everything. Small indoor space, but lots of seating outside on a nice night

    Came here after a cooking class across the way because we were in desperate need of dessert! My best friend has never had Salt & Straw before, so I was super excited for her to try some unique ice cream flavors! Happy to report that her mind was blown! I've always loved S&S for their seasonal flavors, and you can never go wrong with their base flavors either! Of course we sampled multiple. They had a farmer's market theme when we went, and all the flavors we tried were superb! I ended up getting the Tomato Gelato with Olive Brittle. This was soooo yummy! Subtle tomato flavor with a nice, salty brittle. I also tried their melon and prosciutto (the other flavor I was torn between) and their pickled cucumber sorbet (which wasn't my fave). My friend got the cucumber sorbet, and my husband ended up getting sea salt with caramel ribbons (one of their year round flavors). They also had a deal going on for their pints when we went. We were able to purchase and leave the pints in the freezer while we went outside to enjoy our ice cream. Employees were super nice and patient with us while we were trying out their flavors! I'm sure they're used to it, but it can't be easy having indecisive customers! Can't wait to come back and see what rotating flavors they have next!

    I have tried salt & straw in other places and was hyped when they opened one here locally. I absolutely love the fact that they let you try as many ice cream flavors as you want and they do not make a big deal out of it. I wish this place was around when I was a kid as when I was a kid and we would go to a different ice cream shops. The workers were never this friendly about letting you try different flavors. Service here is spectacular. The employees are always very well-versed in what they are serving as well as in the flavors. I enjoy the fact that they let you try unlimited flavors and don't make you feel bad for it. I think the actual inside of the shop is really cute. I love the fact that they also offer treats for dogs that you can purchase as well as pints. I got the gooey brownie and it was so good! I also enjoyed the coffee and nuts ice ice cream as well. I felt it was very refreshing. The only thing I will say and it's not necessarily a bad thing is that I have learned my lesson about ordering a small scoop here. This place does serve you a lot for the small so today I ended up getting a kid scoop and for me that was just more than enough. Anyways, I come here periodically because I love how they switch the flavors and there's always something new as well as the staff. 10 out of 10 .

    It's nice that Montgomery Village now has an ice cream spot and there is lots of seating area outside Salt and Straw. There was a short line out the door when I arrived and it moved pretty quickly. It was nothing like the line on opening night which extended down past the stores across Monti's. All the workers are so nice and helpful. Some of their regular flavors are interesting like the olive oil. Honey lavender and chocolate gooey brownie are two of my faves. Their limited edition and last scoop flavors are always so fun. They had a goat cheese marionberry and habanero flavor this week that was interesting, but I wouldn't have been able to eat a whole scoop of it. A scoop is $6.75, double is $8.50. Split single scoop is $7.25. I like getting split scoops but realized a double is only about $1 more so I started getting that whenever I'm going with my fiancé since we usually share. Adding a waffle cone is an extra $1.65 so things can add up quick here. The scoops here have been huge when I've gone but from other reviews some have said theirs was on the smaller end. Seems like it is worker dependent. Overall on the pricier end but if I want to treat myself once in a while, it's worth it to try interesting flavors plus the scoops are pretty big. They also sell pints and an ice cream cake. Enjoy!

    Two summers ago, I tried Salt & Straw on Hayes in the city for the first time and the lavender honey stood out to me like no other! Fast forward to opening day of Salt & Straw in Santa Rosa, now I can have it a lot more often! I had a coupon for BOGO on a free scoop. Despite being opening day with a long line out the door, the line moved quickly. I ordered a cone with lavender honey/freckled mint chocolate chip and my hubby got a cone with coffee & love nuts/freckled mint chocolate chip. The scoops are pricy at $6.75 each, it needs to be larger for sure. One thing I noticed is the inconsistency of the scoops, it's already pretty small but depending on the person scooping, it could be even smaller! Look at the attached photo of my hubby's cone versus my cone. That was 2 small scoops and doesn't even reach the top of the cone! Next time I come back, I will get the pints! At least then the amount of ice cream you are getting is consistent. Welcome to town, Salt & Straw!

    We were in the area for a late lunch and my hubby couldn't resist as we were walking to our car. This was our second visit to this new spot. They are now offering the Berry series for their limited edition flavors. Their flavors are incredibly unique. They also offer already pre-packaged pints and a couple ice cream cakes in a freezer off to the side if you'd like to stop in and bring some home. They have a few gift items on the opposite wall too. Our server was super friendly, helpful and patient and told us about some of their flavors. She offered to give us tastes on a mini silver spoon of whatever we wanted to try. My husband's favorite is the coffee love nuts in a big waffle cone. We came at a good time because there weren't customers lined up out the door like the last time. There are plenty of seats outside. I was too full to get one this time but we will surely be back. Hubby absolutely loved his special treat.

    I love Salt & Straw so much. I've never been so excited for a chain to open in Santa Rosa! The atmosphere in here is great. The workers are THE BEST. Insanely friendly and so helpful; not to mention patient! Love their unique monthly flavors but you can't go wrong with their classics. We got their Oiishi Strawberry Pretzel Salad, which is their current month flavor. It's SO GOOD. The combination of the salty pretzel and sweetness of the strawberry works so well together. Get it while you still can! Personal favorites from the classic flavors are: Sea Salt w/ Caramel Ribbons, Arbequina Olive Oil, and Honey Lavender! Note that it is on the pricer side for ice cream but I think it's a nice once in a while treat! Especially for the unique flavors.

    Originally signed up here for the yelp event but realizing that I am Leaving one day early made me go to the store and grab a cone for me and hubby! We have always loved salt and straw so we were so excited when we found out about SR location. I got the pear and blue cheese which is surprisingly good and my husband got the salted malted cookie dough. Both were great! Service is great! Staff is friendly and the vibe of the place is cool! I love the mural on the wall outside for Instagram photos! /) Will definitely go back!

    So good!! Salt & Straw just opened in Santa Rosa and it's already a hit. The ice cream tastes super fresh, and the cones are amazing. The people working there were super nice. Such a perfect spot for a sweet treat on a Summer day.

    My kryptonite! I have no defense when I am withing a mile radius of a Salt and Straw and have to make a stop. Love the patient service as I tried a couple of flavors before settling on my usual strawberry balsamic.

    Place was clean and open. The girl serving us was awesome she let us tasted it first before we can decided. Tbh majority of the flavors were delicious! I was happy with the overall. Location, Place and the quality of the ice cream

    My third visit and I enjoyed the experience as much as the first two. Everyone is friendly and helpful, allowing as many samples as needed to make a selection. I chose a scoop of the chocolate gooey brownie, in a cup, and sat outside at one of many seating areas. I'll definitely be back for more!

    Absolutely outstanding ice cream spot!!!

Went here after having dinner at Fern Bar on Saturday night and it was packed! My wife and I got sundaes and they were ready in 5-10 minutes. The staff were super friendly and it's a fun ambience in there. Not like a BR or cold stone with the fluorescent lights. It's clear this is a cherished local spot. We loved it so much we went back the very next night and got the same stuff! Both nights we were helped by Audrey and she was super friendly and accommodating of our indecisiveness.

There's not a flavor I don't like. I really enjoy that they offer seasonal flavors like lavender. Give it a try if you're visiting the area. You won't be disappointed. I do miss their old way of weighing the ice cream and charging by weight. You had the option to add some more of a specific flavor if you wanted to. I really dislike that they went with what all other ice cream shops do and just go by "size".

What I really love about it though is how much my daughters love it. Especially one of them, where anytime she does something good, this is the place she wants to go.

She's tried other things, and she almost got something new last time, but then she stopped and said she didn't want to risk being disappointed when she knows this one will make her insanely happy. And every time, it does. I've probably been there at least 15 times, and I honestly can't remember ever having a bad experience. The employees are usually really nice, and everything is consistent.
