Eskamoe's Frozen Custard & More — Restaurant in West Monroe

I'm usually a big fan of Eskamoes. My son and I come here at least 2 to 3 times a week. I have introduced my family and clients to Eskamoes. However, this evening I placed an order for my son and myself. I ordered a small cone twister for myself, and a small twister in a cup for my son. I waited for the clerk to return to the window. I gave my son his cup of custard and the lady gave me a cup of custard as well. I asked where my cone was and she precedes to tell me, oh we are out of cake cones. So, I'm wondering why, as someone that is supposed to be delivering good customer service, why didn't she tell me while taking my order, that they were out of cones and would u like a different type cone or something else. I have never had a problem with them until this evening. They weren't really busy, and they had the chance to say, I'm sorry ma'am, but we are out of cones, is there something else I can get for you! Nope, I was served a small cup of custard, which she could see that I was disappointed and not happy. She just wanted me to take what she made and have me move out of the way! So...

Bliss!

Sadly, the place closed after the suicide of Chelsey's father. I thought I'd never taste another pecan turtle sundae again -- until I visited Monroe & had the "Arctic turtle" at Eskamoe's.

It was Chelsey's all over again. High...

just came to this place for the first time in years. my prior experiences were fairly decent. today i decided to get the peppermint ice cream. it literally tasted like toothpaste. i don't know who decided it was a good idea to dump a whole gallon of mint extract into the ice cream, but whoever it was, know that you will pay. not today. not tomorrow. but when the day of reckoning comes, you will be chosen. not to be saved, but to be eternally tortured. the cone was...
