The Sweet Oasis — Restaurant in Norwood Park Township

I've been coming here since their inception! I've brought along more than several friends and family members who are all addicted to this place and come from all over the city and burbs! They have soft serve, pre packaged, or u can take a scoop(s), pint, or quart with you. Lots of options. You will never find the flavors they have here at any other ice cream shoppe or in the grocery stores! Trust me, I've tried! All the staff is super friendly, fast, and they let u sample ur heart away! Fast is important! Here's the best part, the portions here are out of control and worth more than what you pay 4 it! Quality, service, and prices are great hands down! This place gives you at least double the amount of what you pay for! U won't get this quality, quantity, and service better any place like Baskin Robin's, oberweis, dairy queen, or culvers. The only thing that sucks is they close in December and reopen in late March! Parking is in front and around the building because it's in a strip plaza but u can find it easy and it's a local walk and a bike ride away! Awesome place to chill before/after a hot summer nite and/or before/after a long day at the pool! And dont worry about the long lines, it's to be expected, and well worth it hands down! I'll wait til they open cause I ain't goin anyplace else...

What a sweet treat this was. I have to admit I wasn't expecting what felt like 50 flavors of ice cream. Some of which were really unique. The line was nearly out the door, but I guess that's to be expected. It's certainly a neighborhood hot spot. I went basic soft serve with brownie pieces this time and it was enjoyable, but there were other flavors that are calling my name for my next visit like Banana Pudding, Play Dough, and Caramel Combustion. This could be the beginning of a very sweet and unhealthy relationship. Visit Number 2 (8/20) Ordered the 2 scoop sundae and what a monstrosity this was. I had forgotten which flavor I ordered first. It was Brownie S'more and I thought it had a caramel taste to it. Didn't really taste like a s'more. But it was decent. The second flavor I ordered was Oreo Cheesecake. It was basically just Cookies n Cream. I also had a taste of Zanzibar which was a dark chocolate that didn't really taste like dark chocolate and banana pudding which was really sweet and very artificial tasting. We went with family and we all had a very nice time sitting outside on a lovely...

I’m giving it a one star for today’s twist pistachio/ hazelnut soft serve due to the fact that it tasted grainy, had like weird residue left over on my tongue after eating this ice cream. Tasted weird for sure now my stomach has been so upset ever since I ate it. Not sure why if the machine didn’t mix well or something wrong with the ice cream. I wouldn’t know unfortunately. It was never like this until today where it just tasted grainy and residue left on tongue. Not happy about today’s soft serve. Just wanted to give you guys a heads up. I had to of course finish it since I paid for it. Never had this issue. Today was a first. It always nice and smooth and not residue left behind on my tongue or when licking it just that grainy feeling felt weird as I’m used to it being smooth as always. Otherwise it’s always a 5 star, the ice cream and service. I did want to mention as well, the sizes are different always on whoever serves you. It’s never the same size even if you say you...
