I love this place. Love. Love. Love.
The extremely helpful and patient ice cream scooper/order taker let us sample as many flavours as we want. It is hard to decide when every flavour tastes amazing. Finally, we decided to delay our decision and order fries instead. We got the Parmesan - Truffle Oil fries. In the words of a 14 year old girl - O M G. They were fantastic. The Parmesan was finely shredded and distributed well so we had Parmesan flavour till the very last fry in the basket. We got 2 dipping sauces (curry mayo and tikka masala sauce maybe?) and while they didn't go with the fries (our fault), they were excellent as well.
I ended up getting the French Toast ice cream and it was superlative. A close second was the Chilli Chocolate ice cream. Not for the faint of heart (or spice tolerance rather), the smooth chocolate ended with a lovely warm bite.
I took off one star because of 2 things:
1) limited seating. extremely limited seating.
2) the slowness in service due to only one person running the front. He was handing out samples, answering questions, taking orders and cashing customers out. as great of a job as the guy did, they really need to hire another person for the front to distribute the load. Especially since the space is tiny and a line forms quickly, making the space feel cramped.
I am not familiar with Cleveland as a city but side street this place was located on was a little scary. When we left, we felt unsafe as it looked like a fight was about to break out among a large group of men. However, this is not the restaurant's fault - just a heads up if you are planning to head out there late.
Sweetie Fry is definitely on my list of places to eat at when I come back!
