"Every time I am in NYC I have to make a stop at Softside! Its so light and yet creamy and so satisfying! It is an easy walk up window with a little outdoor seating. They have a very simple and amazing menu! There are a few classic flavors like vanilla, chocolate, strawberry, and pistachio. recently they have added matcha, possibly for a limited time! Their toppings are classic and amazing. I love to get the hard chocolate shell but you can't go wrong! They are pretty well known for having a sundae with olive oil on it and its soo unique and delicious! If you are looking for an elevated but simple soft serve, this is a great spot to try!"

"We stopped here for a quick ice cream on our way back to the hotel and this place really hit the spot. It is a small ice cream window on the side of “Upside”, a much larger restaurant. I got a vanilla cone with sprinkles and I was delicious! There was also no wait. I would definitely come back. Check them out!"

"One of my favorite spots for soft serve in NYC! This self-serve sundae place is not only fun and interactive, but the flavors are genuinely delicious and aesthetic. My top two favorites are: • The Riff – made with sea salt and honey, it’s pure, simple, and lets the soft serve’s natural creamy texture shine. It’s subtle, elegant, and absolutely addicting. • Sweet Cloud Matcha Sundae – topped with a beautiful matcha hard shell and whipped cream. If you’re a matcha lover, you’ll fall in love with this one! The “self-serve” concept makes it extra fun, and every creation looks Instagram-worthy. Highly recommend stopping by for a treat that’s both tasty and cute!"

"So sorry but actually so mid. The pistachio nor strawberry had much of a flavor, and the flavors are very artificial. Like if it’s gonna taste fake it can at least pack a punch. $7.50 for a small sortserve is also just too much. Then an extra $2 for olive oil and honey? Seems steep… It also just lowkey looks kinda ugly and sad. Like it’s not bad or anything it’s just not good. One pro: when you get rainbow sprinkles they really coat it in sprinkles."

"How do I even come back from this? The vanilla soft serve with honey, olive oil, and sea salt completely altered my brain chemistry. It’s hands down one of the most delicious combos I’ve ever had. I went three times during my six-day trip to New York, and I even made sure it was the last thing I ate before flying back to London. The obsession is real — I literally tried to recreate it the day I got home. If you’re in NYC, you have to try it."
