I was introduced to Jeni's at the North Market some time ago. Everyone was raving about the Salty Caramel ice cream. At that time, I wasn't very adventurous and passed many of the other flavors off as being "weird". I don't really eat ice cream very often, but when I do...It has to be Jeni's! Don't look for your typical vanilla/chocolate ice creams here, or your traditional sundaes. This is decadent stuff, guys. While costing a bit more than your Baskin-Robbins, it's worth every last penny. The Grandview location is in a great spot for people watching and strolling along as you eat your ice cream. It's kind of cute and romantic, in an odd way. My personal favorites are the Bourbon Buttered Pecan (not your Grandma's butter pecan!) and the Lime Cardamom Sorbet. If you've been, go again (support local businesses!) and if you haven't, then you simply must.

Pros: Unique flavors, free tastes!

Pear Riesling, Cayenne Chocolate, Thai Chili, Pistacio, Mango Lassi, any of the sorbets....just good ice cream if you care about taste and quality. The waiting line is never a poblem because you need the time to figure out what you're going to have. Plus you can sample any of the flavors before committing. This is a great place to go after a bike ride. My only complaint is that Jeni hasn't opened up a German Village location yet! OMG, I almost forgot--the GARLIC ICE CREAM at the Garlic Festival 2006 was just amazing and lick-smacking!!!!

Pros: so many interesting flavors to choose from!

Cons: my stomach can only hold 2 scoops at a time

I admit that I've given up wasting my money on any other type of ice cream b/c Jeni's is that good!

Pros: Awesome flavors, Patient & fun staff,

Cons: Parking at the Grandview location, Busy - but line moves quickly

ice cream grows up as a work of art - if you are not adventurous - stick to vanilla and go buy store bought - these treats are nirvana, and nirvana ain't cheap! Jeni has run distance to come up with imaginative flavors - you can test before you buy - some if something is "overwhelming" guess what - try something else. Best flavors I enjoy are the "hot" chocolate and lavender.

Pros: variety, setting, taste

Cons: little pricey

All of the flavors are great and different. The Makers Mark with Almonds is phenomenal. Try a few flavors when you go.

Defies description. Just when I think one flavor is my favorite, she comes up with another one! I currently can't decide between Passionfruit and Lemon/Blueberry. So maybe I'll just go with her Salty Caramel, or one of her many decadent chocolates. Mmmmm! There simply isn't anything around to compare with Jeni's.

Pros: Great Service!, Great Service!, Great Service!

This ice cream is served in all of my favorite restaurants - the flavors are amazing, and the texture is so fine...unbelieveable...

Pros: in the north market, sublime flavors

Jeni's ice cream in the North market is by far, the best ice cream around. The flavors are very different, not what you'd think of putting in ice cream, but they taste excellent. Exquisite! Of course it's fun to walk around the north market while eating a scoop... I'm also fond of Mardi Gras ice cream for the same reason - exotic flavors, rich and creamy taste.

Pros: North Market!!, Exquisite flavors, Rich/Creamy

This is some of the best ice cream I've ever had. Jeni's unique flavor combinations and rich texture make my mouth water just thinking about them. Make sure to try my favorites: banana caramel cashew, strawberry buttermilk, salted caramel and raspberry mascarpone.
