Sweet Suzan's relocated to this new location very near where I live, so that's how I discovered it. Seeing the excellent reviews at their old location, my wife and I stopped in to give them a try.
The friendly employees behind the counter will offer to let you sample anything you'd like to, and after a couple of tastes, we landed on four different flavors on two different visits. Every one of them was among the most delicious gelato flavors we've ever had: cherry mascarpone, mint chip, peanut butter stracciatella, and pistachio. Just wow. The flavor was rich, natural, and perfectly sweet, while the texture was just as good.
The pricing is pretty good, too, and it really makes sense to go large here, with the additional cost for a larger size not being that much more.
They also offer some excellent-looking pastries, all made in house. They have an espresso menu, too, with the beans coming from the Roastery of Cave Creek. They sell canned and bottled beverages from a cooler in the corner.
The ambience is similar to the previous ice cream shop that occupied this space. It's small, but there are still ample places to sit, and everything is kept cool and clean, light and bright.
I highly recommend stopping in for a taste spoon. You might just get hooked. :) read more
