Description
Since 1928, this Staten Island-born chain has been known for its classic Italian ices. At this newer location, the menu includes options made with pieces of real fruit, such as a rainbow ice that uniquely uses watermelon instead of cherry for its red layer. You can also order specialty items like a Caramel Latte Arctic Shake. However, you may encounter a 15-minute wait during busy hours. As a newer outpost, it currently carries a more limited flavor selection than other locations, and visitors have noted inconsistent opening hours.
