Negranti Creamery + Coffee — Restaurant in Garden City

Disappointing Texture Overshadows Flavor

After seeing a review for their Boardwalk location in Garden City, I had high hopes for this ice cream, but unfortunately, it didn’t deliver. Right from the first scoop, the texture was noticeably off — crumbly instead of smooth, almost like it had been partially thawed and refrozen. Even worse, there were ice crystals throughout, which gave each bite a gritty, unpleasant texture that completely distracted from the flavor. Each one (there were 4 of us) tried a separate flavor and the texture was the same across the board.

I will say the one downside was we received a cute little burlap tote with some coupons in it we ended up putting all of the pastries we bought in it until we got home. Well when we unloaded it we noticed it had a really bad smell to it, it was so bad we ended up throwing the pastries we purchased away because they also smelled from being inside the bag. Could have just been an issue from whoever manufactured them but they were...

I came here and got a kid size double scoop of the cookie scoop and the chocolate coffee scoop. I forget the exact names.

They’re still setting things up, as this shop is new, but the environment was super clean. There were two girls working, and both did an excellent job. They were very friendly, and the ice cream was quite delicious. I also got an iced mocha and was very satisfied with how it tasted—no complaints at all. I would definitely...
