I didn’t really like it. I got the tiramisu cake and the mint chocolate chip ice cream and there really wasn’t any flavor for me. The cake was super super dry (if the cake portion had some simple syrup brushed into it, would be great) and the ice cream didn’t boast any mint flavor profile for me unfortunately. I’ve had mint chocolate chip ice cream that was natural and it was good. I don’t like extracts or artificial flavors so sometimes it’s tricky with using natural flavors. Everyone was super nice though, I had high hopes too!!!

Some of the best ice cream Ive ever had. I got the passion fruit and it was incredible. My sons had the chocolate ice cream and peach and watermelon sorbet. Everyone was very happy. The service by the super friendly Italian owners made our experience. My kids can take a while to choose and the woman was patient and gave us lots of samples. We will definitely be returning.

The best Italian ice and dessert place ever!!!! Enjoying today peach Italian ice and cake!

We visited Austin and my friend that lives there recommend this place. It did not disappoint. I had the passion fruit ice cream and if you like that flavor you will be golden. The cookies n cream was great and so was the coconut according to my friend. We had a slice of cake, but forgot to take a pic before we dug in. I have to add that the service was also exceptional! I will be back again and again every time I come to visit. Enjoy!!!!

One of the best places that you can visit in Austin. My daughters and I we love this ice cream and pastries store 🍧🍨🍦

Perfect spot to go on a hot day! Soft and creamy ice cream made fresh every day. There is plenty of seating and the service is fast and friendly every time.

Best ice cream in town. Period. I love all their flavors and their amazing cakes! My favorite combo is the mango coconut ice cream! And their dark chocolate cake is amazing!

Very strong choice for ice cream. This ice cream outpost serves up ice cream, Italian ice, popsicles, and more. As you can imagine, its best to visit in warmer months, but is it ever really a bad time for ice cream? There are portapotties available behind Manolis. Water is sold in bottles and not offered on tap. There is lots of outdoor seating but no indoor so be warned if rain is expected. Either way, youll enjoy your ice cream because every flavor Ive tried was great!

Manoli’s is legitimately mind-blowing. Though it’s a subtle mind-blow. Their sweets are tantalizingly delicious, but never overpowering. They pack just the right punch, and do so in immaculate style. You can really feel and taste the care that they put into their desserts. Everything is perfectly prepared. Their sponge cakes are insane—like eating silky, decadent, heavy air. The shaved ice is another key item here—I recommend watermelon and bubble gum. Seriously refreshing and seriously flavorful. You can’t forget the popsicles either! Incredible popsicles. You gotta try Manoli’s!

The cakes here are amazing. Sometimes line can be a little long but its always worth it. Make sure you have some milk at home too.

SO good! We had the Dark Cacao and the Fragola. The Dark Cacao was very decadent and rich. It was very yummy!! The Fragola was light and refreshing. Great summer treat!! Would highly recommend!

The employees make the experience and every option is bursting with flavor- not too much and not too little. Quaint and humble joint for what theyre doing.

Thought I would contribute to the 4.9 stars, as this place is really good! The cakes were decent but I really loved the sorbet. Cool area off South 1st.

Super creamy and delicious ice cream, not overly sweet. Cake desserts are to die for!! Have received nothing but great customer service the few times we have been. Pictured are the Caramelino and Black Forest.

Manolis has the best ice cream and pastries! Everything they make is handmade and it is a family run business. Their passion fruit ice cream and their tiramisu is amazing 😍 the customer service is also great.

The mango ice cream took me back to my childhood. The flavors are so good. Above all the owner is the sweetest guy. He was so kind to us. This is definitely our favorite ice cream spot.

The owner was so friendly! The ice cream was flavorful and creamy. I got the mango ice cream and it tasted just like a fresh mango!! That’s how you know it’s real.

Every flavor of ice cream I tried here has been phenomenal. And the Tiramisu and Fragola are outstanding!

We had fragola and corcantino pastries! They were beyond outstanding! A must have!! Also, this place is open only on Friday, Saturday and Sunday; and they run out of these yummy pastries towards the end of Sunday. So better go there and grab those early!Next to try is the almond, tiramisu and tres leches ones! ❤️❤️

We were recommended here by a friend and was astounded to see just the number of high reviews on here. Manolis definitely didnt disappoint! After ordering the Belgian chocolate and vanilla (which were just some creamy old-school delicious amazing treats) and the strawberry ice pop (which I LOVED - they make it themselves!), we even ordered another vanilla. We were serviced by a gentleman (I assume is the owner) who seemed to just genuinely enjoy selling ice cream. Would definitely come here again!

The inside of the food truck looked incredibly organized and clean. The cashier was really kind and helpful. I ordered the passion fruit and blackberry ice cream. The passion fruit ice cream was so delicious, refreshing, and flavorful. I would highly recommend the passion fruit flavor. I will definitely be back soon.

Good hot coffee, great ice cream and service! Friendly staff. This is a food truck. There is very pleasant outdoor seating, placed about 10ft apart, some tables had heaters. Nice family atmosphere with plenty of locals picking up to go orders. Neat area with interesting shops and restaurants around.

OMG this place right here yes they know what they are doing for sure u have to try the moose cheesecake its to die for.

The best of the best! Literally cant go wrong with anything you choose.

We needed a quick dessert in the middle of the night and we just happened to catch this place right before they closed. They still had a great selection and the staff was extremely nice! I would recommend the almond sponge cake. It was light and refreshing, yet still totally indulgent. Would love to go back!

Manolis has the best ice cream in Austin. It is super rich and creamy, and they have an incredible variety of traditional and tropical flavors. The soursop is amazing. I highly recommend this place, and the family that runs it is so nice and friendly, always willing to do extra for their customers

UPDATE: Manolis is still amazing. That is all.Amazing experience. And great service. I mean amazing service. By far some of the best service Ive had in Austin. We had strawberry cake with strawberry and blackberry ice cream. The cake was delicious the strawberry ice cream was very light while the blackberry ice cream was heavier but still delicious. A must try for desserts. Have yourself a nice dinner somewhere but leave room for dessert and make yourself a trip to Manolis and treat yo self.

I didnt try the ice cream but the cakes are super delicious. The ones we tried were made with layers of cake and mousse. Theyre are plenty of places to sit outside and the area is dog friendly. They also have little heaters set up by the truck so you can warm yourself while waiting in line.

Best ice cream and cake in Austin by far. Better than Amy’s ice cream in every aspect.

Guava and passion fruit ice creams were out of the world!! Very refreshing. Must try pumpkin ice cream. Its not as bad as it sounds!Mango milk shake was ordinary.

Its so good we almost forgot to take pictures. The owner(?) was extremely accommodating and encouraged as many tastings as you wanted while offering helpful suggestions and combinations.I dont review much but this is one of those places that really stands out and deserved the time it took to leave a review.

Delectable fresh ice cream and pastries..unique flavors, quick and great service..Best in Austin and would give more stars if I could!

First time trying it our, loved it. Lots of flavor to try out and they will give you samples. The customer service is great lovely people with great personality.

Really nice place, we ordered the tiramisu and 2 other cakes which were quite nice. The person there was super down to earth and makes people want to come back!

Excellent food truck for ice cream and cakes. They’re very friendly and give the samples for decisions, even the cakes!We would definitely visit here again and again :)

Amazing ice cream, friendly and kind owner, love this place.

Great ice cream that’s perfect for the summer! Very friendly and welcoming staff.

This place is absolutely wow. The ice cream and cakes are full of flavor, not too sweet but absolutely a great dessert. Everything my party of four bought was amazing, and Manuel was great at recommendations and had wonderful customer service. Love this place and the rest of the park looked delicious too!

Parking is scarce during nighttime. Decent shakes and great pastries.

We freaking adore this place. Everything is so good.....the owners/service is amazing. They made my wedding cake and people were in complete awe and delighted.

The best paletas I’ve had in my life! Super delicious, my favorite ones were the milk based ones: Guava, Cake, and Coconut. The tres leches is amazing too! Really high quality, delicious food!

Perfect level of sweetness. Guava and Pistachio icecream are awesome.

Great pastries and ice cream

Top tier ice cream and coffee. We got cookies and cream, dulce de leche, mango and coffee. They were all soo fresh and creamy. Flavors were natural and not excessively sweet. Welcoming employees and quality all around! Definitely recommend!

What a fantastic dessert shop. The workers are incredibly nice. The fruit ice creams are all perfectly flavored. I ended up getting a soursop + strawberry shake, and i was craving it again the next day. I also tried the black forest cake and vanilla/strawberry cake and they were so light and delicate yet still rich in flavor. I highly recommend everything on the menu!

Manolis ice cream is a real TREASURE in Texas. It is delicious and reasonably priced. If you’re in the area definitely stop by and try it. The only issue is it can be difficult to find parking since there are many food trucks and they park in a gravel area! Don’t let this steer you away because it is worth it!

Absolutely incredible. So good. We appreciate how the emphasis is put on the flavors other than sugar. Cant give it enough praise

My favorite candy shop! Great Italian cream sodas and a huge variety of sweets and treats. I love getting candies that remind me a loved one and giving them as random gifts.

Tried it for the 1st time.... 3 leches are AMAZING!!!! The pastries are perfect and delicious!!!

This is simply how it’s done! We were romping around town after watching the bats on Congress bridge and got a craving for something sweet. Holy Manolis did this place hit the spot! The vanilla ice cream was super creamy, the cacao cake was moist and delicious and the fragola was light and lemony. Super nice guys. Yummy and the little eating park area was clean and nice.

Visiting our friends in Austin and came here after lunch. Love this place! Yummy 🙃

Very delicious real test fruit for the ice cream highly recommended

Great desert choices including scrumptious, light as a feather cake. Ice cream, Italian ice, sorbet and shakes. Excellent variety of flavors.

Absolutely AMAZING!!! AMAZING, AMAZING, AMAZING! (Did I mention the desserts are amazing? LOL). And the BEST coffee EVER! Super friendly staff, really cute sitting area. This place should get 100 stars!! (please note - I got a macchiato which is why the cup is only 3/4 full. Just wanted to mention that, in case someone would think I got cheaped out of a full cup lol)

Family owned and operated. These recipes must be a hidden family secret! Delicious pastries and baked goods made fresh and from scratch daily! The ice cream and ice pop tarts are fantastic. They sell out daily! Easy and ample parking on site. Located in the food trailer park on the corner, you cant miss it! Family and kid friendly, bring the dog as well!

Awesome place, great pastries and the ice cream is top notch.

Top tier quality for everything. Fantastic comprehensive menu from gelato to smoothies. Customer service is second to none. Is evident that just prime quality products are used. 10 points.

Italian ice was amazing!! Customer service was nice also!

The only icecream shop I keep going back to. High affordable, and you can taste the high quality of every flavor. Best for me are coffee, vanilla and mango

Best espresso and cappuccino in Austin, Texas! Second to none! If youre craving a good cup of coffee with a great dessert than you should come to Manolis.

ITS THE BEST TRY THE LULU ICE CREAM

The costumer service is top-notch!I get the feeling that everyone is treated like family when they come here. An amazing atmosphere to enjoy an afternoon treat with the family.There are loads of ice cream flavors and desserts to choose from. We’ve tried the following flavors: Watermelon, sour blueberry, tiramisu, coffee, cookies & cream, and cookie dough. The guava flavor sounded interesting too, next time.

Super nice people, and the ice cream is really good

The lady at the front was helpful with the menu and I had the mango ice cream and caramelino pastry it was so delicious! Definitely recommend it.

Wow! They make actual REAL pistachio ice cream! So good! Can’t wait to go back and try all their flavors! Thank you!!!

Manolis is my favorite new food truck in Austin. By far the best ice cream in town! The tiramisu ice cream is literally to die for, and everyone is so so friendly. I come here almost every week. Feels like Im back in Italy. I would 100% recommend Manolis to anyone in town!

Had a wonderful afternoon and delicious ice cream treats served by excellent, friendly staff.Peace ✌️Brian Bruce

My wife got the chefs assortment of six cakes and they were all fantastic. They remind me of the delicious cakes of Europe.

Friendly service, the Fragola cake was good not too sweet, the ice cream was good, I guess for the price we thought the portions would be a little larger. Overall good.

We really love all their ice creams; both the taste and texture. Their cream pops are pretty tasty too. We didnt like their cakes very much coz we found them to be very dry. 5 stars are for the Ice creams which are top notch.

I love this place! Best Ice cream in Austin the Soursop ice cream is amazing!

Some of the best pastries and gelato I’ve ever had. The owner is so kind. Highly recommend for some tasty treats 👍🏻

This place has some amazing ice cream and a great set up. One of the biggest food trucks I’ve ever seen. A little pricey, but man it was sure worth it. Would definitely give it a try if you’re craving ice cream!

This place is special - friendly service, fresh, homemade treats

Great flavor! Chocolate and tiramisu and strawberry pistachio were great

Super friendly, clean and a nice variety of choices to choose from. Its not the best weve ever had, but its good for sure. Its a little pricey for a family, but worth trying at least once to make your own decision.

Try the mango and pistachio ice cream. Also,the dark cacao cake.

Loved the cake we purchased. Everything we asked for and more. It was delicious and the frosting was absolutely perfect

Please do this combination : dulce de leche + passion fruit 🤤. Delicious ice cream , excellent service . Yo have to wait but its worth it

Some of the best icecream I’ve ever had. And I’m an icecream CONNOISSEUR. I prefer creamy over icey icecream, and this is CREAMY and delicious. And great customer service. I got the pistachio and my bf got vanilla milkshake. Both were delicious and NOT overly sweet at all. Would come again!

My favorite place,I like everything...I love

Delicious! Specially the crocanti, it is absolutely exquisite. Highly recommended.

There’s something really old-fashioned and pure about this place—nothing fancy, just good quality ingredients and desserts homemade with care. Excellent experience, delicious ice cream.

Not bad, I even made a happy face while eating some cake form here cause it was pretty good.I ordered a tiramisu and milk chocolate half moons. I normally dont like fudge. and the moon wasnt much of an exception, but it was better than ive had elsewhere. The tiramisu was on point. At first it was good, then once I got a bite with all the flavors combined, it was really good. You can see that zi dropped the cake and smushed it by accident, but that didnt affect the flavor at all. I will come back when its warm out and order ice cream

Hands down best ice cream that I’ve ever tasted

The Dulce de leche ice cream is sweet and delicious. My husband got the Black Forest cake- it’s chocolate sponge cake and not too sweet. Cute outdoor area seating with lights, cute for a date spot!

The food are so good, I cant describe the feeling while eating it, its really great

WOWWOWWOWeverything is perfect ,very friendly staff ice cream and cake tastes 😋 👌 not too sweet like other cheap places.. my new favorite one ..recommended

Amazing Deserts! Super friendly staff! A must visit!

I have never left a review for an establishment I’ve been to good or bad... this place is amazing enough to break that trend. Priceless quality, the best Ice Cream/Cake I’ve ever had. If you’re on the fence about coming, visit and let your taste buds decide

Really amazing people and deserts. The ice cream is extremely good and the cheesecake is to die for!!!! However nothing beat the service thank you Manolis!!!

Really nice people and great ice cream!

Really good ice cream and nice people, perfect flavors 😋.

I can see how this place gets so many 5 star reviews! The owners are so incredibly nice and the pastries are to die for! They truly know what they are doing here. Best to them if their plans are to ever open a brick and mortar because I have a feeling they’d be very successful! Had the almond cake to go, and they samples me the pistachio and chocolate gelato. HEAVENLY!My dog had just passed away that morning so it was a nice treat and experience and their kindness was so appreciated.

Hands down some of the best ice cream I have ever had. The pastries are amazing, as well. To top it off, the staff is so sweet.

The ice cream is flavorful and creamy delicious. The chocolate cacao cake is the darkest chocolate cake I’ve ever had. And the service is so friendly! No matter who takes my order, I always feel like my business is appreciated.

Very delicious!! We tried an Italian ice, ice cream and a sorbet. They were all great but I really liked the Soursop sorbet. Light and refreshing!

The coffee was great but the tiramisu and tres leches were actually kind of dry. I think they were making a recipe which was meant to last in the display cases all day long and therefore the cake mix was kind of dried out. Taste was good, but texture left something to be desired.

The best ice cream ever

Blackberry Passion Fruit Shake was the third best thing we had tonight. The Cacao Cake was second and the amazing service was the best. You must go! Just go! Get up right now and go! Stop thinking about it and go!!!!
