    Hot Fudge Brownie sundae

    100% would go back, they are very kind and also quick when they have a long line. I stood in line for no longer than 3-4 minutes before I was able to order and receive my order. So many different things to choose from but their Hot Fudge Brownie sundae was 10/10. Very satisfied!

    This is a neighborhood staple. I fear I gained many pounds during slush king season, but how could you not. After 2 years, 3 roommates, and 2 boyfriends, a strawberry Sunday with hot fudge or the root beer galati are the best orders. There is always a line on a nice evening but it's worth the wait and goes quick. The ladies working here are nice and quick service. And there are a few benches out front to eat on if you want to stay but most people take it to go.

    Absolutely understand the hype! This little ice cream shop in Eastie is serving up some delicious sweet treats - ranging from slushes, gelatis, soft serve, and even fresh ice cream sandwiches! Because Slush King is a neighborhood staple, definitely expect a line when you stop by, but the staff are pretty quick and efficient. I ordered a soft serve swirl with rainbow sprinkles in a cup, while my boyfriend tried the rum raisin gelato. Everything is priced very reasonably and the taste is even better! I'm pretty particular about soft serve, but this has to be my favorite I've tried in Boston so far.

    Updated menu with credit card surcharge information included

    Soft serve was great! Really good quality ice cream. I was irked at the credit card surcharge fees that they are charging which add 7% to the bill

    Slush king - love their ice cream. So many options, such nice service & reasonably priced. Somehow we end up there more often than we should ! It just hits the spot on a sunny hot day.

    Great soft serve and gelato in East Boston for reasonable prices. I loved my large stracciatella gelato sundae with hot fudge, whipped cream, crushed nuts, and a cherry. It was heavy on the whipped cream but still very good. My friends loved their ice cream sandwiches as well!

    So affordable and so delicious! Service was very fast as well. I wish they were open year-round!!

    My go to spot since they opened. Delicious, great price & value / frappes are a repeat order for me (even tho you'd benefit from a larger straw) I still come here & buy my milkshakes! Family loves the brownie sundae & fried dough

    Medium watermelon and lemon. Perfection. And like 3$....
    Max G.

    Best slush ever. Wish this place was open more often... I really like the grape slush, and of course watermelon and lemon. I like they have real fruit flavors and the classic artificial you sometimes need. It's the best place to go and spend 4$ on a big cup of cold goodness.

    Mango slush

    I love this place I go all the time and get the mango slush in a quart size. My roommates also love to come here

While I couldn't taste as much pistachio flavor in the martini, it did have a hint of pistachio smell. Their menu says they have Boston's best cannoli. The chocolate chip cannoli was good for cannoli lovers. The hot chocolate had a bit too much foam for my liking. The homemade tiramisu wasn't bad, but I wish it had more cream inside. The coffee was soaked inside and I liked how it was not too sweet. The pistachio cream in the pistachio cake complemented the dessert and had a flaky outside. This store does accept credit card.

So we walk into Modern Pastry Shop and I'm tellin' you, the display cases alone deserve their own movie. Pistachio mousse, limoncello cake, rum baba, mocha mousse, carrot cake with little frosting carrots, crème brûlée with fresh berries, strawberry cheesecake. Row after row, lit up like a jewelry store. I didn't know where to look first. Now, my wife, she's the boss. Whatever she wants, she gets, capisce? So I got her the Boston cream cupcake, 'cause when you're in Boston, you pay your respects. Golden cake, creamy filling, thick chocolate glaze on top. That's the hometown classic done right. Then I grabbed a full pound of rainbow cookies, those layered almond beauties with the chocolate on top. A whole pound, 'cause a few just ain't enough. Word to the wise: it's cash only. Don't walk in here empty-handed and embarrass yourself. Bring the cash, pay your respects, and walk out happy. Bottom line, if you're in the North End and you skip Modern Pastry, that's a mistake you're gonna regret. Keep the wife happy, keep the family happy. -- Captain 619

My previous favorite was Amorino, but I think this place is a step above. The texture of the ice cream was superb--exquisitely smooth and creamy, yet not as sticky as Amorino. Coconut: Coconut ice cream in the U.S. is always legendary, but this was the pinnacle of the legendary. The aroma of coconut and milk was the richest I've ever tasted, and it felt very natural, with just the right amount of sweetness. Naked Yogurt: Similar in design to Amorino's Yogurt & 0% Fat Yogurt, both were pure, rich, and unsweetened yogurt, but this one had a more intense milky flavor. Espresso Mascarpone: The signature flavor. The bittersweet aroma of espresso was distinct yet mellow, but the presence of mascarpone cheese is limited. Very refreshing. Other flavors: Pistachio had a rich pistachio flavor and was a safe choice; Tiramisu and Dulce de Leche were both a bit too sweet. From this perspective, Amorino seems to offer a more well-rounded experience, but I still prefer the surprising quality of this place. The sorbets were all decorated with fruit, making them especially beautiful. If you try too many samples, the staff might get a little annoyed. I was reminded after trying the fourth flavor, so I reluctantly stopped.

This isn't just a quick sweet treat; it's gelato truly made to be savored. I've loved every single flavor I've tried here - and I think I've tried them all. Personally, I lean toward strong, bold profiles. Their chocolate and chocolate hazelnut are incredibly rich and amazing, and the pistachio is absolutely heavenly. That said, their more delicate, subtle flavors like the lavender, salted caramel, and mango lassi are equally wonderful and perfectly balanced. The freshness here is unmatched. The blood orange sorbet was incredible, and while I was in the shop, I actually saw a crate of fresh blood oranges they were prepping to squeeze for the next batch. You can't get any fresher than that! On a personal note, I recently brought my elderly mother, who is in hospice care with dementia, into the shop. She had a cone with two flavors, and it was incredibly gratifying to see her smile and genuinely enjoy one of life's simple pleasures at this stage in her journey. Delini didn't just give us great dessert; they gave us a beautiful memory. Highly, highly recommended. Support this fantastic local gem!

The decor suggested a rather old-fashioned ice cream shop. Taro: A bit of a surprise. For an American/Italian ice cream shop, the most highly rated flavor online was taro, but after one bite, I felt it truly deserved its reputation. The ice cream was smooth and delicate, with a naturally rich taro flavor, and not too sweet. Matcha: A very standard matcha flavor from an American ice cream shop. Not too sweet, the matcha flavor was pure, but nothing particularly special. A safe choice for Chinese palates. Coconut Thai Tea: First time trying this, and quite an interesting flavor. The sweetness of coconut milk is the top note, followed by the bitter aroma of Thai milk tea. Bourbon Maple Pecan: The initial taste was the sweetness of maple syrup, followed by the nutty and slightly salty aroma of pecans. It's quite good, but a little on the sweet side.
