Melissa D.

This place is great! I love getting the gelati. You can choose whatever flavor Italian ice and pair it with vanilla or chocolate ice cream. The employees are very nice and service is fast!

Mango and strawberry
Norma S.

Came here on a Thursday around 1pm no wait to order. Parking on the side. Standing tables only. Service quick. Ordered the vanilla custard with mango and strawberry. It was really good!!! The fruit tasted natural and sweetness balanced. The small size can feed two people. The cone itself was also really big. Will come again.

Cherry flavor fire
Marlon M.

This place is fire it tastes exactly like joes Italian ice cream.Good customer service I'll be back

Pineapple Gelati
Jennifer R.

Soo good! Definitely hits the spot when you're craving a sweet treat. Especially during the summer months. I ordered in person rather than drive through and it was quick. They have a decent amount of options that are well worth the price. I would consider this a frozen dessert gem in the city.

Was looking for a sweet treat for my family and this local place was just the right one. We went on a hot day and line was long but service was great line moved quick. They have a great selection from soft serve to some Italian specialties. Everything we ordered was as great family enjoyed it. Will highly recommend.

Butter beer

The Italian ice was good and refreshing. So nice that they have a drive thru only thing with going with drive thru no samples. Ambiance was family friendly and there is parking available.

Sour apple and cherry
Karen D.

Came here biased, as a lifelong Joe's Italian ice fan, but this place is closer and a great similar option. They had plenty of flavors and the custard was excellent. The staff were friendly and helpful.

Hot fudge sundae
Lia B.

Walk up window service was very nice. Very clean parking area and walk up stand area. Had a chocolate custard cake cone, a vanilla custard hot fudge sundae, and a cookies & cream ice cream cone. All were very tasty.

Located next to the Arco Gas Station and across from Excelsior High School in the city of Norwalk is where you will find something wild called Wild Scoops! The building has a drive-thru and a walk-up window with only 2 tables to stand and enjoy the desserts (half a star off). The service is fast and efficient, same window for both order and pick-up if you are ordering from the walk-up; might benefit from a different pick-up window for more efficiency. I ordered the Gelati which is an Italian Ice and Soft Serve combination. I had the chocolate soft serve on top of the Horchata flavored Italian Ice, the Italian ice was definitely a frozen treat, however it wasn't a soft ice and would have been better if it had a softer consistency (half star off). The soft serve was typical, not a pure standout. I wouldn't mind coming back to try different flavors and desserts, but if I were to compare this place to Frostbites, it is not as soft in texture. However, I would still come back and try more, why not go wild and try different combinations here at Wild Scoops!

Cherry  flavor slush with vanilla ice cream
Laura L.

I loved the experience of ordering and also how the shaved ice tasted.... I really loved the cherry flavor mixed with vanilla ice cream... Definitely will continue to come when I get a chance .

This is my favorite Italian ice ever!!!!! Bold/ balanced flavors Amazing customer service Drive through is such a plus

Ice Cream Sandwhiches
Dexter B.

I'm ngl, I used to drive by this place all the time and pay no mind to it. Now, if I want something to cool me down on a hot day or a sweet treat. This might be the spot, when it's nearby and available. The prices are actually pretty good, I ordered the Ice cream sandwiches. I ordered three for $5.99 because I thought they would be small, but they were pretty big so I ended up sharing. I definitely would come back and get the ice cream sandwiches again especially for that price.

Cherry with soft serve and gummy bears , watermelon Italian ice cream, and chocolate soft serve with gummy bears
Angie Y.

Soooooo good, the toppings make it a little extra good ! If you have a sweet tooth and like Italian ice cream , you'll really enjoy this.

Wild Scoops!!!!

My work is about 10 minutes away and would like to go during lunch. I know you have a drive-thru, but is putting in an order for take-out available? Making the most of lunchtime.

At the moment, no. We are overwhelmed currently just taking normal orders, but I am hoping we can set up a system for mobile ordering sometime this fall, when I have the opportunity to do so.

Any non-diary options?

All the Italian ice flavors we currently offer are non-dairy. You would be able to get any of the Italian ices and the freeze drinks, which uses soda water and Italian ice.…

If you are looking for a unique experience stop by Cravings Ice Cream! The menu is fun and I have…read morenot seen anything like their options before. The ice cream was a 5/5 for me, the toppings, and waffles combined well giving a crunch to the soft ice cream. Free parking is available but limited, and they have outdoor seating with a v for entertainment. I was joyed to see the international snacks available for purchase! I had to buy some oreos. Another perk was the eatery nextdoor!

Update: They're no longer affiliated with Fivestars!…read more I've since gone two additional times to try their waffle bites. My last trip was kind of spontaneous because I suddenly got a Fivestars reward that day for these waffle bites. However, when I arrived, I was looking for the Fivestars tablet only to be met by a Clover tablet instead. It felt like I went through a time warp because the employee working behind the register didn't seem to have any idea what I was trying to say regarding Fivestars, though he did notice a little trifold card on the front counter mentioning Fivestars. I asked if he could get his manager so I could explain, and even show, him my Fivestars reward. The reward said "already accepted", which he almost thought meant I had redeemed it already, but if that were the case, then it would have said "already redeemed". Given that they've now done away with Fivestars, I'm not too surprised he may have gotten the words "accepted" confused with "redeemed", but luckily, he was happy enough to honor it for me. The employee who assisted me was very helpful, though he did ask me to repeat the topping and the drizzle that I wanted. I chose the Strawberry Cheesecake flavor ice cream with Fruity Pebbles toppings and a Strawberry drizzle on top. Since I had already tried the cookie flavors before, I figured I'd try the fruity flavors this time around. He said he needed about 5 minutes to prepare my waffle bites, which were presented a little different than last time. Last time, I got the Cookie Butter flavor with *Cookie* Crisp and Peanut *Butter* (see what I did there?), and it came in a small plastic takeout container. This one came in a large plastic cup, and I'm thinking the logistics may have changed a ton between my last two visits. I did appreciate how the employee asked if I wanted the waffles on top of or beneath the ice cream before making the waffle bites; I chose on top. He also asked if I'd like powdered sugar on top, to which I agreed. Unfortunately, neither of the waffle bites I got from my last two visits impressed me that much. As a matter of fact, the only thing that impressed me was the strawberry drizzle. Everything else fell kind of flat. While generous in size for the $8 price tag, the Cookie Butter and the Strawberry Cheesecake ice cream didn't really taste like these flavors at all! For whatever reason, the peanut butter didn't add much flavor, but the strawberry drizzle added a lot! How even?! In short, the waffle bites weren't that much of an upgrade from the ice cream scoop that I had on my first visit. I'm willing to say "too much good was no good" here. The waffles themselves were good, but they can only do so much when a flavored ice cream doesn't even taste like that flavor. It's worth noting that on my penultimate visit, when I got the Cookie Butter Waffle Bites, I saw two employees behind the front counter who were ready to take my order. I asked them to explain what the waffle bites were, but it took them a couple of tries to actually understand what I was asking. From what I gathered, the waffle bites were similar to the ice cream scoop I had on my first visit, but with the addition of a warm waffle to supplement the ice cream. However, the step-by-step process remains the same. I was initially told it would take 6 minutes to prepare the Cookie Butter Waffle Bites, but it actually took 15! It seemed like one was training the other or they were trying to gather the ingredients and/or the steps needed to create the waffle bites. After about 10 minutes, I was told by one of the employees they had to make a new batch of waffles because the first batch had burnt. The music was getting pretty loud, so it was hard to hear him after that, but I didn't want to hold up the kitchen prep process any longer. I just said "Alright, sure" so he could continue preparing my order. I do appreciate how he let me know of this so that I'd know the reason for the extended wait, but I wish they weren't so ill-prepared during my visit. So overall, still 3 stars overall. I appreciate the prior partnership with Fivestars, but these missed opportunities have led me to believe that Cravings is just not for me. I doubt I'll try anything else on their ice cream menu, and considering that there are only a few parking spots in their lot, it will take a lot to get me to try their hot chicken. And speaking of lack of parking, I also want to mention that on my second visit, I saw two open parking stalls right in front of Cravings, one on either side of a car. That car had its driver's side wide open so that I couldn't park there. I had to park on the passenger side of that car, which he left much less room for. Perhaps a microcosm of the clientele in this part of town? Everybody deserves a second chance, right? Unfortunately, not everybody can make the most of them, and this is just one example of such. Thanks for the sweet treats Cravings, but I'll get my next one somewhere else.

But keep in mind, they do open later towards the afternoon (12-2pm depending on weekday vs. weekend). It is quite small in the shop, but all the times that I've been, the line has been managed well.
