"Sans doute les meilleures glaces à l'italienne du remblai, lactées, de bonne taille, variées, avec un service rapide et souriant. Excellentes niniches bien sùr (c'est la tradition) avec des nouveaux parfums (litchi, violette, coquelicot, ...) qui se marient très bien."

"Meilleur Glacier des Sables, les confiseries sont faites devant nous avec cette odeur qui attire les clients, c'est excellent. Les crêpes et gaufres sont maisons et ça se sent ! J'ai pris une crêpe caramel maison, et une glace italienne framboise passion maison toujours aussi bonne qu'habituellement et je ne fais pas pencher mon cornet une fois en main comme j'ai pu voir au moins 6 fois en quelques minutes d'attente. Je reviendrai encore et encore !"

"Je recommande chaudement, mon lieu préféré de tout le remblais pour acheter des crêpes, gaufres, glaces ou autres!! J'ai été aux Sables d'Olones pendant 3 ans et chaque année j'allais ici. L'équipe est adorable, j'ai eu l'opportunité de revoir certain/es d'entre eux/lles aux files des années! :) C'était avec un grand plaisir que j'y retournais tous les soirs (parfois plusieurs fois par jour, j'avoue tout), et je regrette de ne pas y être allé une dernière fois le jour de mon départ"

"Glaces à l'italienne excellentes. Le cornet est généreusement garni. Personnel très sympathique. Par contre les gaufres sont à éviter. Gaufre plate et pas cuite."
