Carmella Ice Cream

Great ice cream spot. Tons of flavors to choose from. They also serve freshly made waffle cones which we tried tonight absolutely delicious & a must try. Fun fact –they serve their samples
In mini ice cream cones!

Simply the best ice cream in the area always fresh and so many different flavors the toasted almond and coconut are awesome not the same boring flavors so many to choose from

Ordered 15 minutes ago and we’re still waiting. We ordered before multiple people and they are long gone with their orders. I don’t care if this is the best ice cream in the world, we won’t be back. Horrible service.
*Update: the group of teenagers who ordered after us were given their waffle cones way before us because they knew the girl working. We were very patient. Of course, you could have explained the waffle maker issue to us when you were standing there. But thanks anyway!

Went to this Ice cream shop yesterday and did not disappoint! Came from NYC and got what I wanted: the best ice cream! They have different flavors, big scoops, and the staff is super nice: D If you are in the area, definitely stop by!

Love the variety of flavors offered at Carmella’s! The ice cream tastes rich and authentic! And the freshly made waffle cone is amazing!

I have had lots of chocolate and vanilla twist soft serve ice cream before, and this was one of the best, if not the best I have ever had. It was so creamy and had no chemical aftertaste at all! Not too sweet either! Just enough sweetness. It was so delicious and I can’t wait to come back to Carmella Ice Cream!

Pretty good ice cream. Came here from LA and wanted to try some ice cream here. I really liked the variety of flavors. My favorite was the Kit Kat and Cookies and Cream. Didn’t really like the Canoli Cream.
Service was friendly and fast. A lot of people were here so it seems like it’s a good ice cream joint. Also very reasonable prices compared to LA.

We have gone to Carmella’s a couple of times this summer. Great flavors, prices are worth it, the freshly made waffle cones are all what pleased us most. The staff behind the counter are friendly but the service is slow, they try their best but look like they could use another hand most times. We have seen people get fed up with the wait time and leave. The owners sit right by the back door and chat away the evenings, we wonder why they don’t assist in the wait time and help wait on their customers more. Would be a five star rating if this were fixed.

BEST ICECREAM EVER. So happy it finally opened again! I love their continuously changing flavors !

Love this place! Great owners, great employees & fantastic, all natural ice cream. Lots of delicious flavors to choose from! Key lime, rocky road, oatmeal raisin, chocolate chip cookie dough. Not too much sugar & inexpensive. I recently tried their homemade waffle bowl, which was made fresh — right there & then. The air smelled amazing! Lol
Definitely go & support this local gem!

The best homemade ice cream. Heaven inside a freshly made waffle cone. Every week a new flavor. The chocolate mint has big melt in your mouth dark chocolate chips. Today’s special flavor was apple pie, chunks of cinnamon apples. Prices are so reasonable for such great quality.

Second time back and got the freshly made waffle cone with Oatmeal Raisin and Choc-​Oreo-​Banana. LOVED the cone and Oatmeal Raisin, but my choco was lacking Oreos :/​Although I waited about 15 minutes (only one family in front of me somehow…) I still give it a 4.5! Definitely worth it.

Has nobody written about the best thing here, which is the made-​to-​order waffle cones?! It is a good sized portion, I think about 3 scoops. The waffle cone is warm and they go to the detail of sticking a marshmallow at the base of the cone to help from ice cream dripping out.
The homemade ice cream is excellent. Every flavor we have tried has been very tasty. Hoping to try the cookie dough which was sold out the first time we stopped and we haven’t seen on the menu since.
Worth the trip from anywhere. Highly recommended.

Good place, nice selection of flavors. It was a little strange when I was there that the first time I came here they said they were open, but no one came to the window. My second time though everything was fine. It’s a strictly outdoors place. Portions are good, finally a place that doesn’t overdo it (or you have to ask for a kid’s size).

Reminds me of an ice cream place down the shore in the heart of NE NJ Suburbs.
The lady and I love it and we are not really ice cream people. The oatmeal raisin is the real deal. Seriously tastes like the actual thing with bits of raisin. Prices are reasonable. We paid about 6 bucks for two small cups. I got cappucino and chocolate and she got oatmeal raisin only. All of the flavors we tried were good. Service was friendly and quick. Wonder whats going to happen to this place in the winter since its outdoor seating only. Think Ill try a milkshake next time.

Saw that Carmella was new to the area so I course I had to check things out! For those who haven’t been, the approach is just like Rita’s. Tell all that your heart desires to the person behind the window, and minutes later, happiness is served in cup or a cone.
Although I wasn’t too impressed by the selection of flavors during my visit (I suspect they change everyday, or at least I hope they do so), there were a few notable flavors to choose from like: MAPLE WALNUT, OATMEAL RAISIN, and CAPPUCCINO. I had the chance to try a few last night and must say, the PEANUT BUTTER BROWNIE is my top flavor. They amount of brownie and peanut butter is thoroughly even. You can tell that they were mixed in at the very last minute of churning which really makes all the difference. If the CHOCOLATE COVERED PRETZEL happens to be on list again, I would suggest to skip it. It’s chocolate based which I loved, but not enough pretzel and saltiness I was looking for. The PEANUT M&M was my second of the night, only because of the contrast in texture and colored shell specs, but I wish the M&M’s weren’t so crushed down.
What I absolutely loved about Carmella, and what brings them from 3.5 to 3.75 stars in my book, is that their samples are given on itty bitty cones, not on a tongue presser or forsaken plastic spoon.
Service was rather moderately paced. I the think the people behind the window were a little too preoccupied or «new business owner”-overwhelmed with serving folks instead of pausing to take the time to smile. I can’t blame them for tending to their customers, there was always someone there to take care of.
Portions are great, the prices even better. Would I go back? Maybe to check out new flavors. It’s solid ice cream, but I can’t say it’ll be bookmarked as a notable favorite in my book, not unless the variety widens, changes, and increases.

I’m sorry to say but we were not impressed. Have had better ice cream at other establishments. The taste was mediocre at best. The prices were very affordable & the servings were large but the flavor just wasn’t there. I had the cappuccino ice cream in a cone, it wasn’t bad but it wasn’t that good either. My husband had a vanilla & strawberry ice cream milk shake & he did not like it at all. The chunks of strawberry were very tart & not blended thoroughly which made it very hard to drink through a straw. Unfortunately we will not be coming back. Best of luck to the owners.

Amazing homemade ice cream, crazy flavors, and best of all the owner is just about the nicest and most passionate guy you’ll meet.

My fiancé and I love this place!
The flavors are unique and delicious.
The pricing is great.
Fresh ice cream.
And our ultimate favorite which makes it different than others is that they let you sample ice cream… In mini cones! Can’t get much classier than that and to us that shows investment to their customers and that they put in that extra umph!

AMAZING HOMEMADE Ice Cream!!! Reasonable priced! They use fresh ingredients! And you can taste the difference! My family and I were blown away! We also met the owners and they were so nice!!! We will be back!!!
