Lots of options and lots of flavors!!! So yummy that my husband went in for another 😝 I got the parfait (Italian ice base and custard on top with toppings - all of your choice!) My husband got the UBE taiyaki which was crunchy on the outside, chewy on the inside…perfection. I’m interested in trying their drinks next!!

Really enjoyed the quality of this product! You can definitely tell it was super fresh and the taiyaki itself was warm and soft. The matcha soft serve was excellent quality and has no weird aftertaste like lower quality matcha. They had a great selection of toppings and the overall portion is quite generous! They follow a lot of good safety measures to protect everyone. All-around very good experience!

This place by far has the best shakes and ice cream that I have tasted in my life. The ice cream is super creamy and delicious, and the shakes are to die for. I got persian ice-cream bastani flooded, and a shake majon. My friends got carot juice with ice-cream inside (havij bastani). We absolutely loved our shakes, and loved everything about this place. The staff is super friendly, and professional. Good deserts, good price, clean place with amazing service. I will definitely go back there again.

Had a great experience here. They had a lot of different menu items, which they took the time to explain and provide recommendations. The place was clean and staff was nice. Their taiyakis were good and great value for the price. Their boba was fresh as well. I will be coming back when im in the area for sure

Adorable, cute, delicious, great variety, tons of topping options, friendly staff, free samples, great photo ops, nice location, board games, great date spot, hang out, frozen custard, Italian ice... went in on a whim and was overwhelmed with the options, but after a couple of tastes i knew what I needed... that Ube is absolutely delicious- and one of my favorite flavors. Certainly going to come back and try the Matcha

Taiyaki cones are freshly made to order and toppings are generous. Service is really friendly. The wait time is a little long but its worth the wait.

They have bomb dessert and taiyakis. On the bussiness side of things, Milk + Ice is very easy to work with. Theyre quick to respond and very clear. Most importantly, theyre kind and open minded. Will definitely be back to work with them again and try thier desserts!

I had a craving for yakitori and a carving for ice cream, so why not both! I got red bean in the yakitori and ubi ice cream and it was bomb. Don’t even need the two toppings it comes with, but hey it’s free.

There was a long line, but the dessert was yummy and worth the wait! I got a parfait, regular size, which is $6.50. You can get samples before you choose your flavors. The parfait base is Italian ice, and there is frozen custard on top. They allow you toppings as well. I got 2 flavors for the Italian ice: lychee and guava. I got the vanilla flavored custard on top. Id recommend this place and would go again πŸ‘πŸ˜Ž Oh and the interior design is cute!

Never going here again.I showed up at 4pm (listed opening time) and the owners were late. They said we open at 4:30.Came back and the owners said No... we open at 5pm. To a woman waiting for them to open.They changed ALL of their google times to 5pm.The next day I checked their times again and they switched their times BACK to 4pm.I feel they did this out of spite and thats childish.

My partner and I had some time to kill before watching Detective Pikachu, so we decided to stop in. When we first entered, I noticed the fun LED butterfly wings at the back of the restaurant so of course I took some quick pics with it.After five minutes, my boyfriend and I approached the counter, and the owner said hed be with us in a few minutes. A minute later, he smiled and asked us what we would like to sample-I sampled the calamansi, and my guest sampled the winter melon ice. They were both very light and delicious.However, I was actually craving something creamy instead, so I ordered a mango mousse. The owner then explained that I could order a drink with an ice mixed in, so I added the calamansi, and boba as well, at 50% sweetness. My partner ordered the strawberry matcha mousse with winter melon mixed in, at 100% sweetness.While our drinks were being made, the owner then offered us a sample of their new recipe for a vanilla custard so he could get some feedback-it was very delicious, and not too sweet. However, after I finished, I noticed that it left a coat of butter on my tongue-but it should be noted that I was vegan for a year, and my palate has completely changed now, i.e. I can tell if desserts have a lot of dairy i.e butter in them.About two minutes later we got our drinks. My mango mousse with the calamansi was pretty sweet, even for 50%, though the flavors were delicious. The boba was also really well cooked and high quality.Overall, service was really great and personalized, and the concept of tea + Italian ice + boba is really unique, they just need to keep working on perfecting the sweetness of the drinks.Bonus: they have stamp cards!

Soo tasty!! Ive been looking for a local place that serves taiyaki since I had it when I was down in LA, and then this place turned up! Super friendly and nice staff, and a super great style. Definitely worth checking out!! (Foods pictured are taiyaki with matcha soft serve and red bean past, and taiyaki with chocolate soft serve, peanut butter, and almonds.)

This is my first time at milk+ice. Once i walked in I tried gelato but frankly I didn’t liked it. So I asked for help then the lady at the counter is so patient and explained everything clearly. Then I ordered for the nutella fish cone I really really loved it. Its super yummy. We can add two toppings to the ice cream, they have a wide variety of toppings. I have added crunch and almond so far so good. Will be visiting again. In love with this ice cream.

Love this place!! Amazing Boba made with Italian ice, fresh ingredients, lots of variety, and also unique traditional goodies like Persian Faloodeh, Cafe Glace, Ab Talebi, Mangonada, and pistachio ice cream.

Interesting concept of boba milk. I tried a few Italian ice flavors (calamansi was delish!) and custard.I enjoyed the watermelon boba milk I got with 25% sweet. Id also ask for less ice

Review β„–53

- Regular-sized mango/guava ice & vanilla custard: vanilla custard was flavorless & only complemented the Italian ice because of its texture. Both flavors of ice were good & the texture of the ice was nice. Pretty pricey for the amount given.- Ube/matcha custard swirl: ube overpowered the matcha flavor, and the matcha tasted strange when compared to the matcha from Matcha Love.- The setup for ordering & paying was odd. It would be better if customers were allowed to order their dessert at the same time they were browsing and tasting, and then pay after like with Chipotle.- Compared to my favourite Italian ice & custard location, Sweet & Shavery in Davis, this establishment is lacking in terms of flavor, price, and general awkwardness of the ordering process. Sweet & Shavery in Davis far outshines this establishment on multiple factors. Milk & Ice could learn from them.
