Austin's Old Fashion Ice Cream

Good ice cream and always had steady customers. No way to get in touch. It is just closed and there are really no generous old fashion ice cream parlors. A city this big- that is a shame Pros: Always enjoyed going here Cons: it's closed... the obvious con more

Austins has great family atmosphere, good food, great ice cream and all around good feel to it. My family has been going to Austins for as long as I remember. Its a super yummy tradition. If you are looking for a comfy, yummy, family friendly place to eat out, we highly recommend it. And the price cant be beat. Pros: Family atmosphere; Ice Cream! Cons: Not fancy more

This place is extremely disappointing. Austin's is a diner and yet, my meal there for a burger, fries and a shake was $15.00! Why? The burger was only okay, there was a $1.75 upcharge for french fries instead of chips and they gave me 10...10 fries. The shakes are pretty good, but not for the price, or how long it takes to get them. I ordered all my food at once and was most of the way done with my meal before I even received my shake. This place is just awful. I will never go back. I can get a much better burger someplace else, and cheaper. Pros: Good shakes Cons: Price, Service, Environment... more

you seat yourself, and wait awhile for initial service, after you order you wait quite abit longer. Young servers who are inexperienced in customer service. Food average, anything you can make yourself in the comfort of your own home. I wouldnt go to Austin's unless you want to wait for some so so ice cream. Pros: big selection of ice cream Cons: terrible service more

I had been a loyal customer of Austins since 1974. Even when I moved across the city I traveled to Austins for the food. However, since the move to East Broadway the service and the food has deteriorated. They used to have the best tuna fish available but sadly, no longer. And several times the potato salad had ""turned"" yet it was still being served. I doubt I will ever venture across town again just to visit Austins and I would be embarrassed to recommend eating there to anyone. Pros: Malts Cons: Service/ quality of food more

Best Old Time 50's dinner . Not the decor but the food. Double burger feast two 1/3lb angus patties with a crisp tossed salad just like mom's table! Homemade ice cream to die for! There are not many places like this any more! This will be my favorate eating place .Love it! more

Short Version--Awful Ice cream. // Longer version--This place is probably more popular for the gloppy concoctions it creates. If you bury the ice cream under mounds of sauces and whipped cream, you might not notice that the actual ice cream underneath tastes terrible. I went with a friend and we each ordered 2 scoops of ice cream, each getting two different flavors. I had ""cheesecake"" and ""chocolate jalepeno"". The chocolate tasted like weak cocoa with a dash of freezer burn while the cheesecake was completely unidentifiable. It was sweet but neither of us could say what it tasted like(I'm from NY and know what a cheesecake tastes like). No depth to any flavors. My friend's choices, Coconut and Chocolate walnut were better than my flavors but nothing to make me want to return. Pros: Plenty of seating Cons: What they are serving more

I was a customer for years until recently before they relocted. The palce was filthy and the service was terrible. They have not recieved good reviews from the local papers. Pros: Cheap Cons: Filthy more

WOW--no fuss, no muss, just an old time soda shoppe feeling. Great food at very reasonable prices. Brings back childhood memories! Great date place!!Tantalizes that ice cream palate!!! Pros: Reasonable, fresh Cons: overcrowded, parking more

You can't beat the ice cream at this location. But, they will and you'll have the most delicious shake you'll ever try. One shake is enough to feed two (or just one if you're really hungry). Fine sandwiches and service round out the trip to Austin's. Don't miss it. Pros: inexpensive, tasty more
