Acapulco Tropical

"Cute, quaint, cultural, delicious! A great local spot to visit on a Sunday afternoon, especially when it's hot. We ordered elote all the way around and a variety of snow cones. We'll be back to try all of the fresh fruit combos! We had elote and snow cones on our minds. Can sit outside on the deck with music, ceiling fans, and a great cross breeze."

"This location is EXTREMELY SLOW. Like ridiculously horribly slow. I'm not sure what they have going on inside. However, I'm only taking one star off because they are Atleast nice and respectful, unlike the other location. This location has people working that seem to have manners and say nice things versus the other. And imo that goes a long way for a business! Oh and this location still flips the blizzards upside down. The end."

Twistee Treat - Fry

★★★★☆ 4 (60) • $

"Their building is literally a giant ice cream cone! You can't miss it! They have a large variety on the menu making it easy to order for the whole family as I'm sure there is something on the menu for everyone. Can't go wrong grabbing a cold sweet treat on a warm day. Drive thru is quick and hardly ever a long line. You can also choose to order from their walk up window."

Shake Shack Katy Freeway

★★★☆☆ 3 (59) • $$

"We came here for their soft opening and ordered via drive thru. Customer service was ok. The people who greeted us in the beginning were helpful. But, the drive thru had a lot of staff that weren't proactive. A customer in front of us had to come out of his car to ask where his order was despite there being three attendants outside. The parking lot also looked unfinished because there were parts of it that were concrete and other parts that were gravel. As far as the food goes, it was pretty good. But, there's room for improvement. We ordered their Shack burger and Chicken sandwich. The beef patty was flavorful, but a bit too salty. However, the veggies were fresh and the potato bun was fluffy. The strawberry shake was fragrant, although a bit sweet for my liking. The cookies and cream shake was also a bit thick. I think the staff could've blended the cookies in more thoroughly so that it would be easier to drink the shake through the straw. It was still delicious and creamy. The chicken sandwich was juicy, but again, it was a bit too salty. They didn't have the veggie burger at the soft opening. I really wanted to try it. I guess I'll try it at the SL location.Overall, the food was good. I think this location just needs to iron out their food seasoning and consistency, training of their staff, and finishing their parking lot."

Sorbetiere Houston

★★★★★ 4.9 (20)

"Yes! Delish! Everything is labeled with colr coded stickers. Vegan, alcohol infused, sorbet, etc. We were able to partake in samples prior to deciding on which type we actually wanted. Rum cake was totally delish and not too sweet. Nice ice cream spot with friendly service."

Marble Slab Creamery

★★★☆☆ 2.5 (73) • $$

"We wanted something sweet so we thought we'd try this. It was really easy to find and the employees were helpful. Definitely following covid guide lines so no indoor seating but there are a couple of benches outside that you can use.There are a lot of "pre-picked" flavors so you can choose from one of those or create your own. They also have more than just ice cream. They have banana splits and other stuff too. Ice cream is super good! We loved it and will return."

Gypsy Coffee and Cream

★★★★★ 4.6 (20)

"Super cute spot, it was actually called Farmhouse Coffee and Cream. I loved the decor, very interesting, warm, and inviting. I had the fruity chicken salad on toasted wheat bread. It came with chips, pickles, lettuce, and tomato. I also got a mocha and it was delicious."

Churrohouse

★★★★☆ 4 (157) • $$

"The name of this restaurant is Churrohouse. I'm not sure when they changed names but that's it's name now. I visited over the weekend for a dessert and ordered the chocolate almond churro for $5.25. It took them less than 10 minutes to make it.That churro was oh so good! Very delicious and I will return with maybe some ice cream to add to it. They also serve snack foods."

Neveria Las Michoacanas

★★★★☆ 4 (15)

"I wanted to come and get some ice cream here but the owners and workers are neveria. Get it. Never here.Wonderful delicious Mexican paletas with very cheap prices located in the backwoods of Katy in a part of town that a lot of people don't go to.If you want really really good paletas in Katy, which aren't too easy to find, this is definitely your destination. Nothing like most of the suburb, this is a more low key genuinely Mexican area.My favourite one is up near Spring but in the Katy area this is right up there, you won't find better paletas. The coconut one is our fave but every one of them is good."

"Why does this only have 1 star. The food and serves was good. The blizzard was delicious. I ordered chicken and dumpling. I know you are probably thinking the same thing as me, "why order c&d at DQ." But you want what you want when you want it! So I decided to try it. It was surprisingly very good. (Not as good as my homemade c&d but a solid 4. My husband ordered a hunger buster combo. The burger looked very good. My husband said it was very good. It was better than his Whataburger he had recently. Ow on to the blizzards! The were having a special buy one get one for .80 because DQ is 80 yrs old! Great deal. Mini Heath for hubby and Oreo for me.What can I say about my blizzard ... it's a Blizzard!! They are always yummy. They have a rewards program. Download the app and start earning. 5 visits = $5.00. That's pretty good!"

"From the moment I enetered i already knew this place was going to be fire So much to choose from, my family and I ended up ordering the street tacos (3 fajita and 2 trompo) And the chilaquil torta. The tacos are generously stuffed and so was the torta (not like some taquerias that fill it half way) Staff were pleasant. Cleanliness 10/10A must try for everyone. I'll definitely be back, I love a drive from here but it's totally worth it!"

Crush City Treats

★★★★★ 4.7 (3)

"While driving by recently on a Sunday evening (11111 N Houston Rosslyn Rd), I noticed the Crush City Treats sign. Curiosity made me come back. I was surprised to find out that this small business had been open since July 4th. The menu of Crust City Treats has more than just ice cream, but I was only there for the ice cream. One thing that I noticed was that in comparison to some of the ice cream franchises in the area, the prices are lower, however Crust City Treats does not have as many ice cream flavors to choose from. Despite this, I am looking forward to returning for a banana split. Rewards program available with a punch card."

Popps Parlor & Popcorn

★★★★★ 4.9 (40)

"Super cute ice cream parlor that serves Blue Bell ice cream (only the best in Texas). They also have fancy, over the top milkshakes, snocones, flavored popcorn, and other treats. The two ladies who served us popcorn and ice cream were incredibly nice. The vanilla Bluebell ice cream in a cone was the perfect treat for a hot Texas day and the dill popcorn was perfectly savory. Would recommend if you're in the area!"

Matcha Mia

★★★★☆ 4.1 (52)

"One day I was just craving matcha. So I went to my most reliable source--Yelp and my fellow Yelp elites. I had my first glimpse of this place because my friend and I ate at a spot right next to it one time. So when I saw Yelp suggest it again I thought it was meant to be.I was just expecting a hop in and hop out cafe but it's also a froyo bar which I was NOT expecting at all haha! The vibe and ambience of the establishment was super instagrammable though. It was poppin when I entered and I really only wanted a drink so I had to go around the froyo topping bar. The staff were friendly and quick. I went for the matcha drink with lavender honey in it. It wasn't super sweet but it was sweet enough. If I'm honest, I think this drink kept me up the rest of that night HAHA! They use authentic matcha so it really got me good. Good to note that I should come here earlier in the day for a matcha fix next time!"

Lynn's Table

★★★★☆ 4 (196) • $$

"A great, homestyle restaurant in Old Town Spring. They have an extensive menu but breakfast-to-lunch can be an awkward time to enter. Still, the staff are super friendly and attentive.I got a veggie sandwich with a side of potato salad, and the meal was incredibly filling. They stuffed the sandwich with as many fillings as possible!They also make a great iced coffee - mine had just the right amount of sweetness!My dad also forgot his credit card and we called them later in the day to see if he could come by and pick it up. He wasn't able to make it until three days later, and they had it for him, so kudos to the staff!"

llaollao

★★★★★ 5 (28)

"My husband and I go to the Galleria A LOT for near nightly walks so we had our eye on a curious stand on the ground floor behind the Starbucks that had bright green accents. It finally opened! The place is pronounced "Yao-Yao" - it's an international chain from Spain so the double l's are pronounced like a "y" - and it's their first location in the USA. They serve milk based frozen yogurt... sorry, not vegan friendly. They pride themselves at being a green company and offering healthy froyo low in sugar. We finally made sure we had room for dessert one day and we ordered the small which was gone in no time. The lady manager was there (I think it's co-owned by a husband-and-wife couple) and both her and the other employee were very helpful and enthusiastic. They offer a few size options: small, medium and large in standard waxed paper cups, llaoglass in a cute little glass container, petitllao in a really small bright green container, a parfait of sorts (forgot the name), and to-go in an insulated green apple in both 16 oz and 32 oz sizes... The prices are VERY reasonable. All come with a set quantity of toppings.They don't have as many topping options as Pinkberry and I wish they had more fruit options but they do have [DRY] kiwi, strawberry, crushed speculoos, candied almonds, granola, mini cookies and [SAUCE] hazelnut chocolate (think Nutella), speculoos/biscoff, a fruity one (green apple or passion fruit), chocolate... They also only have one froyo option. The froyo is milky-er than the other froyo places I'm used to here but I also don't feel like rinsing with water afterwards. I decided I liked it right away and is good without toppings. My husband needed to get used to it and took a few tastes but he was the one who later insisted on the Apple. We opted for biscoff sauce that first time (1 topping for the small). Yum! They were really generous with the toppings. Went away too fast since I shared. It was so well priced we returned the next night and got the to-go Apple - 32 oz, if you please - for only $13. It comes with 3 toppings and if you return with the apple, you'll get a discount (10%). Yay! We've gone back a few times later and we don't see the lady much anymore. The people now vary in enthusiasm and generosity but I still love it. I especially love it when they add one half of froyo, add toppings, and sandwich it with another half and add more on top! Haven't gotten Pinkberry ever since I tried Llaollao! They finally added passion fruit to the sauce offerings and I have to say I prefer it over the green apple. I took a break since I got sick with a cough but as soon as I get better, I see another 32 oz apple in my future!"

Wafflez N Creamz

"Had a wonderful lunch with my grandsons after their football games. We were greeted promptly, and waited to order at the counter. Our food took a bit, but I didn't mind, as it's made to order. The ambiance is casual. There's a tv for entertainment or keeping up with the game... We enjoyed our food! The chicken was really good and my blueberry waffle! Lord! I inhaled it! Oh! I had a cup of coffee also, that was smooth and delicious! I'll definitely be back!"

"We did a day trip to Houston and found this spot for some ice cream/gelato. After sampling a few flavors, I got a scoop of the pecan baklava and the chocolate hazelnut crunch. We all loved the pecan baklava, so that was the crowd favorite. I like that they top of the scoops with a piece of a waffle cone."

Sonic Drive-In

★★☆☆☆ 1.5 (18)

"I thought this sonic was different than the others but they too lie to you about the ice cream machine being broken or "we just ran out of ice cream" after 10:30pm. They don't close until midnight. All the Sonics in Katy do this and it frustrates me. I know you didn't just run out. I know the machine doesn't break every single night at 10:30pm and magically start working when you open in the morning. Managers need to change your practices or close at 10:30pm if you don't want to work after that."

The DoughCone

★★★★★ 4.5 (314) • $

"Of all the ice cream dessert trucks floating around in Houston, there are none quite like The Doughcone, figuratively and literally. They've been in operation for just under a decade and have established themselves as one of the most unique and "cool" businesses on wheels. They've certainly amassed the popular vote, in terms of reviews and brand awareness, which only gets heightened as this weather gets hotter.The concept is simple: donut cones filled with soft serve ice cream and customized to one's liking. The cones are baked individually and the ice cream is actually vegan. No matter what the combination is, it's always visually impressive and is as convivial as it is edible. There are so many toppings that I've yet to try them all. There are some typical toppings one would see at an ice cream shop (sprinkles, chocolate chip, fruity pebbles, crushed oreos, etc.) and there also some more unique choices such as Belgian chocolate chips, churro dust, and biscoff cookie butter. There are also some premium (#1) choices that include praline pecans, toasted marshmellows, hazelnut cappuccino wafers, and whipped cream. Want a tip? Check-in on Yelp and score a free premium topping.When the weather is hot, the soft serve melts super quick, so I would recommend the obligatory food photo-op and then immediately diving in. I've had a stale cone here and there, but it's bound to happen. These creations are going to be pricey for the average ice cream goer, but if there's any ice cream spot to splurge on, it's definitely something like The Doughcone.Lastly, I want to thank the people in the truck for always being friendly, welcoming, and their willingness to answer all the questions. I also appreciate that each cone is served inside a cup to keep the stickiness at bay. They are a credit / debit only business and they're in a different part of the city almost at all times. Peep their social media for their up-to-date location and fingers crossed it's near wherever you are.____________(#1) i.e. costs extra."

Treats of Mexico

★★★★★ 4.9 (131) • $

"Cute little shop in the East End that's been on my radar for far too long. I don't have much of a sweet tooth - as much as their frozen treats and candies of my childhood sound attractive... but what brought me in was their handmade facemasks imported from various parts of Mexico. I dropped in to show my support during Latinx Heritage Month, and also buy a gift for my mom (and myself).When I dropped in, they were under renovation with plans to expand to the adjacent suite. Best wishes on the expansion. I'll pop in the next time I'm craving a paleta, dulces, or ice cream concha!"

Freddy's Frozen Custard & Steakburgers

★★★★☆ 3.8 (213) • $

"Are you reddys for some Freddys?Custard isn't good in Texas. So it's nice to be able to get some, albeit average, custard here.Very nice custard, but very standard burgers. The custard is only good by Houston standards. If you compare it to Rita's, which is an import from Philadelphia, or perhaps compare it to some of the best ones of the Midwest and the Northeast, then it would probably be scoring a two or three, but just by Houston standards I'll give it a four. For the burgers it's more like a two or three."

Culver's

★★★★☆ 4.1 (67) • $

"You know I could take my review that I posted about another Culver's and paste it right here. I won't do that, but if I did, It would all be truthful about this location as well. I love it when a chain of restaurants can stay consistent, consistency is key, I can preach a sermon about consistency being imperative in any relationship, but I'll stop it there.The staff was super friendly and efficient, just as you would expect from an American restaurant, and it wasn't that over-bearing friendliness lol, I'm sure you know the friendliness I'm talking about where the person seems as if they have some kind of ulterior motive, behind that smile and dead eyes. The food was hot, the strawberry-mango Ice I got was perfect for the Houston weather, and if I'm ever on that side of town I will stop again.."

Now as a Louisiana native, I'm super bougie about beignets, but HONEY THESE WERE DELICIOUS! Somebody's grandma gave up her recipe and I thank her for it. I was full and hardly about to finish a 2 piece and waffle, so good luck if you order more!!Chicken- 5/5Waffle 5/5 The apple/cinnamon waffle (thank me later) Service 5/5Environment 4/5 ( The ladies were nice but it was HOT AS HECK when we walked in. If it gets that hot while they're frying chicken, the owner needs to get those ladies some more air.)"

Fat Cat Creamery

★★★★☆ 4.3 (34) • $$

"This is the best creamery in houston, so much so that I earned a badge, lol. I had the whiskey butter pecan cone with hot chocolate sauce and added pecans. The service today was not as friendly as it's been in the past but the ice cream made up for it. The ambiance was lovely as usual just not a fan of them not having indoor seating, especially with this Texas heat. But I shall return. Love the Oak Forest area."

Sonic Drive-In

★★☆☆☆ 1.5 (73) • $

"Every time we come to this sonic our drinks are made to perfection. The downside is that they NEVER put out sauces in our bag. They give us 1 bag with food and appetizers for 2-3 ppl and it always rips. This last time I stopped by the girl handed me my order & walked away. I tried to get her attention because I didn't get my marina, ranch or BBQ to no avail. She was too busy in (what I'm guessing was) a co-workers car because she had a dog and she was looking at it and petting it. I finally got her attention a few minutes later and asked for another bag because mine ripped & all of my sauces. She was nice and came back with everything but it's ridiculous that I have to ask for my sauces when they're on my receipt."

PopsiBar

★★★★★ 4.9 (46)

"Why 5 stars? Because I could probably come here everyday and not get tired of it. --- --- ---As I always say in reviews for places like this: frozen sugar is the key to my heart. PopsiBar is no exception.You walk in and choose between like 15 different flavors of popsicles You then dip it into white chocolate, milk chocolate or dark chocolate, and then have your choice of adding about 8 different toppings. I think it would be hard to find a combination that I wouldn't like here. We went with a coconut popsicle with milk chocolate and coconut shavings on top, and a oreo popsicle dipped in white chocolate and oreo bits on top. Both were excellent, but the oreo was my favorite of the two.I'm not sure what the deal with the chocolate is: it really stays on the popsicles quite solidly without falling a part. It's kind of like a fondant cake frosting in a way. It adds a nice contrast to the popsicle itself and is something I wish I could enjoy on a regular basis if we didn't live so far away!"
