The ice cream was very very rich but plain and underwhelming. I expected much more after reading the reviews. Additionally, I ordered my ice cream in a waffle cone, which was so tough and hard to bite that I had to break off and throw away the pieces as I was eating the ice cream. The ice cream was of...

Strawberry's and Mexican vanilla....one bite and you will be hooked. There is nothing better than Amy's on a hot summer day. If your from out of town, you have to try them. If your a local, youve already tried them so you know. Amy's is a staple in Austin, and my favorite ice cream joint. More

Amy's offers a smorgasbord of ices, ice cream, concretes and sundaes to satisfy everyone and anyone. And it's SOO GOOD. I am lactose intolerant, so it takes good ice cream to make me indulge. I couldn't stop dipping into my companions vanilla and white mocha ice cream with cherries. I got the coconut ice which was heavenly, as well. Not... More

I enjoyed this ice cream shop because it had fun and original flavors, even a few with alcohol in them. On this visit I had the white chocolate macadamia ice cream. Tasty and satisfyingly filled with actual macadamia nuts! Definitely get the "tiny" size, its just enough to fill that craving and not be stuck with so much ice cream. More

Great ice cream and great atmosphere. The workers were a lot of fun, and were helpful in suggesting flavors to try. If you like vanilla, try to the Mexican Vanilla, which is unique to Amy's. More
