Sweet Saint

I cannot tell you how many times we pass this little spot and never really gave it much thought other than putting it on my mental list to try. What were we thinking?!?! Why didn't we come in sooner??? Absolutely delicious homemade ice cream with well thought out flavors. It is rich and creamy and this isn't your ordinary chocolate or vanilla. My husband chose their Mardi Gras pie flavor. It had chunks of Moon Pie in the ice cream and a delicate banana flavor. I had their bayou mud. It was a mix of chocolate and marshmallow ice cream with a caramel ribbon, roasted pecans, and homemade brownies chunks throughout. We both had them in waffle cones. I didn't even get a picture of them as we devoured them quickly. I wanted to go back and get a second scoop, but we're in the middle of king cake season and so I have to balance it all out. My only suggestion would be that they make waffle cones. That is what would make their ice cream perfect. Plus the smell of a fresh waffle cone would bring so many in off the street to try their many flavors. Cute little place, and their staff is incredibly gracious as you can sample the many flavors. I will be stopping in a lot more from now on!

In the mood for something sweet in the Quarter ... Sweet Saint is the spot ! Homemade, unique, flavorful ice cream. Creative ingredients and recipes abound. The owners run the place and are super sweet! Enjoy tastes with medal spoons and conversation. Always great to be able to support a local family business, even better when the food and service exceeds your expectations. Only downside is no tables ... just a couple stools.

Was craving for ice cream/sorbet after dinner. Walked in the store, I was greeted by friendly staff. Service was quick! Got The Ponchatoula, a vegan sorbet. Very refreshing, it's made of strawberries, sweet basil and limes. It was good!

I'm currently waiting for the nola pride parade to get to St Louis Street, so I popped into Sweet Saint to get a cold treat. Saw the sign out front. Vegan ice cream, you say? I'm in. I tried the Ponchatoula strawberry. It has a hint of lime for tang, and while it isn't creamy, it does have a nice smooth texture and is softer than most sorbets. Most of all, it hits you with a bright, fresh pop of flavor, just like eating ripe strawberries in summer--not at all like the typical artificial berry full of red 40. The woman who served me said they're working on a coconut based flavor, which I'm excited about. Sadly, I'm allergic to dairy, so I always appreciate a true ice cream with alternative milk.

This gelato shop, man oh man! Okay, let me calm myself down. No matter where I travel, I always love to try and experience ice cream/gelato.Stepping into this shop is a vibe unto itself. The owner is so chill and is passionate about making his gelato! It has a rich organic butter content, so the ice cream has a taste like you have never imagined. Imagine creamy but also thicc, yes with the double C! The owner told me the stories behind each flavor! A plus is that sampled are also available. I ordered a double scoop with #1 chocolate coffee chicory which was so smooth, vibrant and awakened my senses! #2 mint chocolate chip, the mint was very bold and vibrant! This rocked my world!This place is a gem and a must experience when in New Orleans! Cheers to good eats!

Best stop in Nola for something sweet! We were happily greeted by the owners and few minutes before closing and they encouraged us to try every flavor. The owner was very kind and explained the flavor profiles and creaminess of the ice cream. I got the lemon flavor and my boyfriend got the mint! Both were amazing and I wish I had gone very day!! After we paid there was a line of 15 people out the door and the owners smiled and stayed open late for everyone.

I was craving ice cream on this hot summer day, so I headed to Sweet Saint near Bourbon Street. It's a cute shop, but it lacks seating options. That was fine with me since I was just grabbing a cup and heading out. I sampled two flavors before deciding to go with a scoop of An Ice Cream Named Desire, which contains three different chocolates. It was creamy and rich; definitely a must try for chocolate lovers!

The owners were very friendly and very helpful! The ice cream was unique and cannot be copied. It is something I haven't had before, and it was good! The ice cream shop is small, but clean. We will be back on our next visit!

If you're wondering near Bourbon Street and the French Quarter and crave a sweet treat, Sweet Saint is worth stopping into. It's locally made ice cream with flavors like chicory and coffee and bayou mud. My seven-year-old daughter loved tasting the flavors and landing on chocolate in a waffle cone. Staff are friendly.

I thought this ice cream shop was just ok, especially for little kids. Their flavors are interesting and might be too complicated for those with simple palates. If you are looking for just regular ice cream flavors, then definitely try a different spot
