Husband & I ordered the Fluer de sel & salted caramel and got blood orange sorbet for toddler. All good, unique ice cream shop, not really for young kids.

I had high expectations coming in, after seeing Glacé listed as one of the top ice cream shops in America. It definitely didn't disappoint. The flavors are different (I tried bananas foster), but the most ordinary ones are anything but. The vanilla was absolutely amazing--it didn't taste anything like your average plain vanilla. It's expensive, but for the quality, I'd... More

The wonderful Christopher Elbow chocolate flavors made into ice cream and sorbets-- what could go wrong? They will let you taste anything, and trust me, a small cup is two generous scoops and plenty of goodness and richness.

I love ice cream; it could be my favorite food! After traveling and trying ice cream shops in other cities, I have come to appreciate Glace Artisan even more! It is fun to try some of the exotic flavors even if you don't want a whole scoop. And I love how you can pair the ice cream flavors; so many... More

Really good flavors and texture, with a couple unusual twists (Monsooned Malabar Coffee, Cranberry). Not much seating room. Go!

It you come in and go conservative, it is just an OK place. But if you get the most unusual flavors that they have, you will will likely be surprised....the goat chesse and wheat honey, or either one of the camel favors are excellent. It is not a place to play it safe. You can get chocolate or vanilla anywhere.... More
