| - I just came from dinner here and really enjoyed it. They don't have a plush atmosphere, but they have a fun casual feel, bright color scheme, (think ikea rainbow colors) friendly service and extremely reasonable prices with most meals under $8 and most drinks and appetizers under $5. They have a huge selection of fun chinese teas, ices, shakes, smoothies and offer squirrel hill a different new alternative way to beat the summer heat besides our traditional ice cream shops.
So what's bad? The service was friendly but a bit slow. That said, everything was definitely made fresh for our order, and we all got different dishes that we enjoyed, including shrimp and pork dumplings, fried chicken and various spicy and non spicy sea food hot pots which were served in the traditional style with flames to keep them warm.
You can go down the block to how lee or china star and get more gourmet food, but for the price, I think Cool Ice is a terrific value, and I'll definitely be back again soon!
