Emack & Bolio's Ice Cream

Good variety? YES. Health-conscious? As much as ice cream can be... Overpriced: WAYYYYYY. $4+ for one scoop of ice cream? Trust me, the scoops aren't that big, and the waffle cones are narrower than I've seen other places. A coworker and I went there the other day on an ice cream craving. She got a chocolate/sprinkles dipped waffle cone with 1 scoop of ice cream. Total? Nearly $8! We're still grumbling about it...3 days later! It wasn't the best ice cream we've ever had, either. It was good, but not $8 good. It was slightly too sweet, and the flavor wasn't very strong (I had Mellow Yellow Banana). Seriously, I won't be going back. I really hope they rethink their price list. I could have rationalized $5-6, but not $8. more

The woman behind the counter tells you their pumpkin ice-cream pie is org*&m$@c--and people who buy it actually come back from miles around to tell her that she was right! So I had to try one myself--it is indeed org*&m$@c! Better than a real pumpkin pie if you ask me. more

So happy that my favorite ice cream store now also serves breakfast--Balthazar French pastries and organic coffee. It's now part of my morning ritual to stop by Emack on the way to the subway in the morning before work to pick up a fresh croissant or pane chocolat and a hot brew. Great addition, folks! Thanks! Pros: very fresh pastries and smooth-tasting coffee more

Quite a different sort of ice cream cake that the usual. The decorations are simple and elegant, and there's none of that filler that you get in most ice cream cakes: it's all ice cream with delicious hot fudge in the center. I ordered one for my husband's birthday party and everyone loved it. more

Was totally disappointed -- the reviews overrate this place BIG time. The ice cream was good, but nothing spectacular, I make my own and it far out tastes... the turtle sundae was skimpy, the caramel cold, and it was prepared incorrectly, with walnuts not pecans. The chocolate soda was a complete disappointment -- didn't even have any chocolate flavor, and the ambience there was horrible. Again the ice cream wasn't bad, it tasted fine but for the prices -- not worth the trip! more

Some of the most delicious ice cream I've ever had--on EITHER coast. And their late hours work well with my jet-lag. I'll be sure to visit again on my next trip. Pros: late hours, delicious flavors more

I'm a diabetic and was so happy to find such a tastey selection of sugar-free ice cream. Cheerful surroundings and good service, too. Can't wait to go back! Pros: sugar-free and non-fat selection more

Being from Europe I felt right at home with Neuhaus chocolates and perfectly brewed cappuccino. I was so impressed with how clean the store was; I really enjoyed sitting and eating my dessert there. I'll certainly be back next visit. Pros: cleanliness, cozy atmosphere more

If you like ice cream, you will love Emack & Bolio's. I had a White Pistachio and Grasshopper Pie ice cream sundae, and I thought I'd died and went to heaven. That was the first time I went. The next time, I had a Mellow Yellow Banana waffle cone that had been dipped in chocolate and nuts: wow! I can't wait to go back again! Pros: Lively decor, wide selection of flavors and products, window seating more

If you are craving smooth and creamy ice cream, a great cup of coffee, some gourmet chocolates, or a wonderful fruit smoothie, this Emack & Bolio is the place to go! They have the best ice cream flavors; your mouth will water when you look at the ice cream menu. Having trouble making a choice, the friendly staff will help you pick the flavor that best suits your mood. The gourmet chocolates are to die for, and you CAN""T FIND a better, more healthy fruit blended smoothie with the highest quality ingredients; a much better smoothie than ""you know who"" down the street a little ways. more

After catching a flic at the Film Forum, I sat at a table in this colorful ice cream parlor and loved it! Deep Purple Cow is now my favorite flavor, with Grasshopper Pie a close second. And the coffee is brewed so well, I think it's the best in Soho. This place is a real winner! more
