Wonderful. The staff were friendly and nice. We went on a weekend and it had a decent size crowd. They’re were short staff during the time of our visit, but it wasn’t noticeable. The wait time was around 5 minutes no longer than 10 that’s for sure. If you’re curious the red cream is basically cookies and cream with a red twist. It was really delicious. No complaints! I’d bring family and friends visiting out of town to this spot, that’s for sure!

The thai tea ice cream and the churros are the best! Theyre short staffed but worth the wait

Went here for the first time and ordered the Party Animal. The ice cream was amazing and the Egg Waffle was fluffy and sweet. The presentation was nice, it was a busy location they did they’re best getting everyone’s orders out on time.

Great Ice cream idea but was disappointed during my visit. Around 7pm on a Sunday it got busy, I waited around 30min for my Frosty Tiger Churro (good) and Guava lemonade(disappointed) the room was hot making you watch time. I used their wall art as a distraction. Personally I will not return and prefer Aqua S.

Came for some late night dessert. Seems we were not the only ones that had the idea. Staff was friendly and efficient. The bubble waffle was new and delicious. Get the churros. Any of the churros. They are hot and fresh. Fruity pebbles for the win.

Have been looking forward to coming here with a friend since we do love ice cream. Ordered each the churro n waffles n 1 scoop of ice cream. The bill came out to like $24 bucks now was it worth it? No way Jose!! The churros were very hard so not melt in your mouth fresh the way it should be. This was a big turn off for me. Maybe you need to over cook em to create your shapes of art so i will forgive you. We enjoyed the waffles. My waffle had the little confetti bits in it so it was a fun novelty. My friend and I both agreed the ice cream was decent but not great. Sorry we wont be back. If your ice cream was amazing like a certain place in the heights i would be a repeat customer. All ice cream is not created equal.

This place got some really good churros. They got many flavors of them but personally, I like their plain ones. They make them fresh to order so expect to wait a little bit for them. I promise you its worth the wait.

We went to the original location on Bellaire after googling churros in Houston. Upon arriving the space was open and cleanly, there was a small line. We were ok with this because we needed time to decide, there are so many options!It takes a little time to move through the line and get your order but that is because every churro is freshly made to order, and it is so worth the wait. We have actually been twice now. The first time we ordered the Churro Jr Pop and a Frosty Churro with caramel drizzle. The second time we both got the cookie butter blast Frosty Churro and a Frosty Churro with caramel drizzle and shared an extra Cookie Butter Blast Churro. First, these are THE BEST CHURROS we have ever had. Theyre so fresh and warm, a perfectly chewy bite. Second, the soft serve dont play! They even have homemade ice cream but we still have not tried it because we cant stop ordering the soft serve. Fresh churros and frosty soft serve, the combination is euphoric. We will definitely be going back!

This spot was a great combination of ice cream and churros. The churros are made on the spot and come out warm and fresh and the ice cream is delicious and they allow you to try samples if you need help making a decision. It does get packed and may take a little time to get you dessert but it is worth it. I will be back again 😁

Review №21

Red circle is a sweet, fun treat and each dessert is made to order. I do wish they had a few more flavors available. I believe they have 4-6 regular flavors and like 2 which are seasonal rotations. Online states that they have so many flavors but you never know what is available currently or if the one you are eyeballing is seasonal. Its a bit of a drive to visit so I wish there.was a quick way to check other than calling the place.

Review №23

Loved it! The classic cinnamon churros are soft yet crunchy and not too greasy. The Red Circle Coffee ice-cream is very good, not too sweet but very aromatic. This flavour combined with the churros was a winner mix. Everything is fresh and prepared right in the moment so be patient - its worth it! ✨🍦

Amazing ice cream and churros! I got the fruity pebble egg waffle with a scoop of cookie monster ice cream and was blown away with the super creamy ice cream. The egg waffle was fresh and hot which soaked up the melting ice cream perfectly. It was a perfect combo! And the Churros were just as good if not better

One of my favorite dessert places! I got a fruity pebble waffle with coffee ice cream and the regular sugar and cinamon churros. They are on the pricer side but I do highly recommend trying them out! They’re always so friendly and let you try out the ice creams if you can’t decide.

Review №36

Simple menu that has variations of ice cream, donuts, churros and puff waffle. The ice cream wasnt as creamy as I would of liked but my friends who ordered a puff waffle item and a donut ice cream sandwich said the items were good. As for decor, simple tables and chairs with plain, large graphics. The place looks like you would only spend max 30 minutes there, not really inviting. Cheerful staff but bare counter tops which looked strange. Im used to dessert places showing HOW they make things so the fact that this place made everything behind closed doors was odd.

Really fun desserts but a little pricey. The churros were good and they have super interesting ice cream flavors. I got the thai tea ice cream and overall enjoyed my visit!

Review №38

This dessert spot has enough options to leave you drooling. I am not normally someone that can finish a waffle or ice cream. Once here though, you have to go all out. I got the elmo crunch ice cream and cinnamon waffle and churro. This has got to be the best combination of things that will ruin your diet. I loved it. Ill be visiting again for sure.

They have YUMMY desserts, its a good 25-35 minute festive for me but worth the distance. I enjoy it every time I go. My hubby loves the soft serve ice cream with the churro. I like their specialty ice cream. Staff is great too!! Its a good place to go hang out with friends or on a date.

Review №47

The churros and bubble cones are made to order so be prepared to wait a few minutes but it’s well worth it to get this dough hot and rolled in whatever toppings you choose. There was a continuous line and a packed house but that’s because it really is that delicious!We got one traditional cinnamon sugar churro, and another covered in captain crunch! You can mix and match ice cream flavors and there’s several different toppings to put on the various churros and bubble waffles.Ig: @whetyourappetites

First time trying out place I️ was greeted with the right attitude right away the guy who was at the register explained how everything works since I️ wasn’t quite sure what to get, they had about 8 flavors to pick from they keep it simple I️ really enjoyed that . I️ went with the churro daddy basically just ice cream and a hot warm churro to go with, the ice cream texture was a bit thick it wasn’t as creamy as I️ was expecting it to be, overall it was very delicious the inside looks really neat as well I️ like all the stuff they have on the wall very unique

Not much to say here. Just plain good. Ice cream flavors are good and the churros are equally good.

Review №58

Very Instagram-able experience, which I feel like has become a big draw for people to come here. I had a frosty churro, which is basically just churros dipped in soft serve with various different toppings. The soft serve was okay. It was kind of like the type you would get at the end of a buffet. I got the frozen cookie, so they poured on a little chocolate syrup and crushed Oreos, but not enough to really change the flavor of this cup of plain vanilla soft serve. If it werent for the churro, I might have given this place an even lower score. But, the churro turned out to be pretty good! It came out nice and warm, and it wasnt too doughy, but it was still soft and chewy.

Just when you thought desert Concepts couldnt get any more outlandish and awesome, this place pops up. Its similar to the food crazes and places Ive seen on my monthly trips to Singapore. In the same month a liquid nitrogen ice cream place opened up nearby what that best place takes it to a whole nother level.This place combines the best of all worlds churros Donuts macaroons and ice cream with wild toppings like Fruity Pebbles and cookie butter. If you want to go spike your blood sugar levels just looking at this store will do it for you. I love churros a lot and this place did not disappoint with the giant pretzel shaped churros. They Even have a churros coated in Fruity Pebbles.I ordered a churro and some guava ice cream which was delicious. Theres nothing like a hot cinnamon churro on a freezing cold rainy night. my friend ordered the Hong Kong egg waffle which was also very good and extremely feeling. That is a cool concept . My wife got the macaron sandwich which she said was good. And my other friend got a different churro and soft serve.Everything was top-notch here. Next time I will try to Order something really wild like Fruity Pebbles or cookie butter and Oreo crush. Very glad to store opened up. You can never have enough to Rose and you can even buy an assorted sampler box for parties.The staff was very nice and they played with our baby and came by to check up on us.

What can I say? These babies hit the spot, the sweet tooth! Ive never had a Hong Kong style waffle, but the taste of it reminded me of a fortune cookie and who doesnt like fortune cookies? However, the texture was much softer and tastes better when warm. The Churro Daddy was to die for! Perfect amount of cinnamon and crunch. Cant wait to try the Fruity Pebbles Churro.

Review №86

Great ice cream flavors & choices, however in total we paid $23 & I don’t know about you, but spending that much on ice cream isn’t exactly my idea of an affordable dessert. The ice cream is delicious, but quite frankly, I’ve had much better else where. I’ve heard that this place is a knock-off version of Stacked, an ice cream place that has been around longer & would definitely recommend more than this place, mainly because they have more flavors & send coupons from time to time.Stacked is honestly the best ice cream I’ve ever had, but this place ranks right after mainly because of the flavors. They both have similar flavors with unique colors, but Stacked is my choice!

Overall a good experience here. The staff was super friendly and even encouraged my group to try all the flavors before ordering. Id recommend it to anyone in the area looking for ice cream on a warm pastry.You have 5 options when ordering:1. Ice Cream Scoup2. Donut Ice Cream Sandwich3. Churro with Soft Serve4. Hong Kong Style Waffle with Ice Cream5. Glazed ChurroWith many of the options, you can choose from a pre-made concoction by them or create your own.I had the donut ice cream sandwich with their Elmo Crunch and Oreo topping and those it was pretty good. Creamy ice cream and a warm soft donut.

Review №96

Pufflelicious with Elmo crunch: a popular item on the menu. Freshly made waffle with one of their best flavor ice cream topped with chocolate pocky sticks. The waffle took a bit to be made but it was worth the wait. Hot and with just the right amount of crunchiness. The Elmo crunch had cookie bits inside and for some reason reminded me of red velvet. I have also tried the Thai tea ice cream with the pufflelicious. A lot of flavor that is similar to Thai tea. The Thai tea flavor was one of their rotation ice cream. This choice had a good size portion and can be shared by two people.Frosty churro: Soft serve ice cream churro. A decadent yet simple snack. The churros were crunchy and the soft serve ice cream tasted just how it should be. One thing I like was the presentation. It was simple but appealing to the eyes at the same time.Sugar bun: I got this with the very vanilla ice cream and caramel popcorns as the topping. The sugar bun is pretty much like a glazed donut. The very vanilla ice cream went well with the donut but you have to eat it quick. The donut cake came out hot but soon turned a bit frozen because of the ice cream. The popcorns which I think was caramel was a great topping for the sugar bun.

They look better than they taste, the churro is crispy when fresh & the soft serve is standard; nothing too special there but theyre just so cute!I would definitely come back for aesthetic alone. & to try other churro flavors. Customer service was nice enough. @houstongirleats

Review №98

This is a cute place, however I could think of area of improvement. Maybe use Blue Bell instead of wharves brand they currently use. You can taste the artificial flavor in the vanilla. Secondly with masks, allow guests to visually confirm the other. If you place it and correct it a 2nd time it shouldnt come out wrong. Lastly, there will be a bit of a wait which can be expected i guess, but with covid it makes social distancing hard waiting for 10 minutes
