"The quality of the ice cream at Salt Straw surpasses the hype! The only ice cream that I have ever had that could compare was the dessert at a farm to table fine dining restaurant. It was hand made earlier that day by a chef using local dairy and freshberries from a nearby farm. Honestly, that is what is so cool about Salt Straw. They focus on using fresh local ingredients.Their rotating seasonal menu is mind-blowingly good. At the time of our visit it was still berry season. The berry pie ice creamwas a heavenly experience of pure food joy! My wife and I treated ourselves to dessert here on our anniversary this summer. Itwas busy but the line moved fast. We tried a couple of samples which to my surprise we served on metal spoons. When done youjust drop them in the spoon chute which is built into the counter. What a fun feature to have reusable sample spoons. If it isyour first visit I highly recommend that you focus on the seasonal menu. Everything there is hand made in small batches usingthe best local and seasonal ingredients so its all going to be fantastic. There is just something a bit more exciting about aseasonal menu in my opinion. I also recommend that you check out the About Us page on their website. What an amazing story.From a basement to a food cart to a gourmet ice cream chain. So, do yourself a favor and give this exceptionally excellentgourmet ice cream shop a try soon."
