"Pretty good ice cream in a great location Inman Square. They offer some exotic flavors like mango and azduki beans. Ice cream quality is pretty good."

Came to Christina's with high expectations based on the reviews I read and what I heard from folks. While they did not live up to the hype, I will still say it was a good ice cream experience. SETTING: The place is not as nice as Toscanini's or JP Lick's. Whereas those are modern-looking, this one has definitely seen better years. That's not to say that it's a bad thing, I definitely respect a place that has stood the test of time and looks like it (as Christina's does). Be forewarned that the place smells strongly of spices (I sense a strong hit of turmeric) which is quite different from a typical ice cream shop that smells like, well, ice cream. I didn't love sitting inside because of that...
I tried their kulfi flavor, and it was absolutely delicious—an experience unlike any other. The burnt sugar had a slightly burnt taste at first, but it became milder and more enjoyable with each bite! The chocolate 5 spice was also unique and fantastic. I would love to see a 5 spice version with a vanilla base. The chocolate banana flavor was great too. I definitely plan to return to sample more of their offerings. Plus, the prices are reasonable, making it well worth a visit!
I have to mention that the Mexican chocolate ice cream just isn't enough. You have such an eclectic variety of flavors that I’ve heard even if you visited every week for a year, you still wouldn’t be able to try them all. I’ve only been here twice since it’s a bit out of my way, but I have to say, even though I thought I was betraying Ben & Jerry's, this ice cream is pure magic.
