Jeni's compares to Salt & Straw in California! Unique flavors and you can try them all!! Ice cream is creamy and simply amazing! Staff were friendly and helpful and didn't mind us trying several flavors before deciding. A perfect summer or winter treat!
I tried both of their vegan flavors. Both were very good. Unfortunately, I do not recall the names of the flavors and I managed to take a picture of everything except the half scoops. I read that they sold half scoops but was not thinking it was the only option for the same price of full scoops so be prepared for that. There was plenty parking and it's wheelchair accessible.
What is a great way to end the night??…desserts. As many would say, “save the best for last!!” That can be true in some instances. Lol, but golly this place is so cute. The other best thing about Jeni’s is that it opens past midnight right in the center of Montross area. They have some serious good, rich, creamy and decadent ice cream! I chose 2 of the seasonal flavors and it was delish. Come check them out if you have a sweet or savory palate! Chow Chow Time!!
Workers were so nice and helpful, let me try as many flavors as I needed. The standout, aside from the unique flavors, was the light, crisp, buttery waffle cone! I got the miso butterscotch brownie and the double dough ice cream in a waffle cone and it was SO good. The miso ice cream has a nice savory element to it (still overall sweet but not TOO sweet) and with the buttery/salty notes in the cone it was an amazing flavor profile! Highly recommend and WILL be back!
This was my first time visiting Jenni's ice cream, but I had always heard good things. I have to say, I was very impressed by the overall experience. The shop is literally a quaint little house just off Westheimer. There's a fun and inviting storefront sign and swings on the front porch. When you walk in you enter a trendy and deceptively spacious ice cream parlor with plenty of seating. The store was immaculate, chic, and comfortable. I could easily have lounged there for hours eating ice cream and avoiding the brutal Texas summer heat. The staff was incredible friendly, and the service was impeccable. I asked which flavors they recommended, and I was told Gooey Butter Cake, Brown Butter Almond Brittle, and Brambleberry Crisp were their best sellers, so, I went with those. These three flavors were delightful and actually worked well together. I had a lovely experience and I will definitely be back to try their extensive variety of flavors. Some tips: Try a bunch of flavors before making a delicious. Consider going with "the Signature" as it gives you 3 half scoops in an edible waffle bowl. And maybe buy a pint of two of their famously delicious ice cream to take home with you. Parking is limited, but you can find street parking all along Westheimer. And if you're getting those late night cravings, no worries, Jeni's is open until 1am. Cheers!!
