Guest sentiment
A snapshot of what local diners frequently mention about this location.
"As an ice cream fanatic, this is one of the best ice cream places I have EVER been to. Not only is the service wonderful every time, the restaurant is very clean, they have a drive thru, and the ice cream itself is phenomenal. This is my favorite place for ice cream by far! The ice cream flavor matches the name so accurately that it’s a little uncanny. Personally, my family always goes for the lemon cheesecake, twixted sister, or apple pie. The rotating flavors are always fun to give a try, which makes the topper such a great innovation. This is a must try."
"Over the Top Ice Cream made our event a hit! The online booking process was a breeze, communication was excellent, and most importantly, the ice cream was fantastic! We went with the ice cream cart which was perfect. Our guests couldn’t stop raving. Highly recommend for any celebration or corporate event looking to serve up something fun and memorable!"
"If Black Cat Ice-cream isn't in the cards, Over the Top is a fantastic alternative! While their flavors might not be as wildly unique or change as frequently, the ones they offer are truly delightful. Plus, the staff are always friendly, and the prices feel fair. My absolute favorite thing about Over the Top is the adorable free mini "top-hat" scoop of ice cream they add to every order. It's such a fun way to sample a new flavor each visit without sacrificing your go-to choice. It also lets you get creative and see how different flavors might pair together! Definitely worth a visit for a safe, tasty and enjoyable ice cream experience that is consistent. If I had to offer any feedback I'd like to see them get a little more creative and unique with their offerings instead of playing it safe. More crazy flavours and more frequent flavour swaps would be cool. I want to see flavours that make me to (wtf! That's weird, I need to try that!). And to be honest also, I wouldn't mind if they were just a tad more generous with their scoops. My last visit they weighed our scoops before serving which is not a big deal generally but customers shouldn't see that at the very least!"
"First & only visit. This is a nice little ice cream parlor. Very clean & light & bright. Expensive. A root beer float and a waffle cone for over $13.00 They discontinued the scotcheroo shake, which was the reason we went in the 1st place....the famous scotcheroo shake. My husband can't navigate the State Fair, which apparently is where their scotcheroo shake became famous. Then they discontinued it? Even though we live a couple of hours away, we go that direction often. If they bring back the scotcheroo shake we will probably make an effort to get there otherwise no."
"Over the Top Ice Cream lives up to its name with creative flavors and generous portions that make every visit fun. The ice cream is rich, smooth, and packed with flavor, while the toppings add extra excitement. Friendly staff and a cheerful atmosphere make it a great place to treat yourself or enjoy dessert with family and friends."
"Love it!! Cutest local ice cream parlor! Delicious homemade ice cream and you get a free tiny scoop of anything you'd like to try, on top of the scoop you order. The Banana is exceptional, the buttered corn was odd but I can see how it's a hit at the state fair! Fantastic homemade waffle cone!!"
"Over the Top did an excellent job serving ice cream at our Ventura Edge rollout! Their setup was professional, the staff was friendly and efficient, and everyone loved the variety of flavors. The service added a fun, festive touch to our event, and we received great feedback from attendees. We’d definitely invite them back for future events!"
"Over the top is a wonderful ice cream parlor that's always clean and professional. They offer a great selection of staple ice cream flavors including vegan options, plus a small selection of rotating flavors that are definitely worth the try! You can't miss when it comes to going "Over the top""
