Craziest ice cream flavors in Cambridge/Boston. – Bostonians consume more ice cream per capita than in any other city in America. And Christina's satisfies their frozen treat sweet tooth by offering over 50 flavors daily from a stock of over 300 varieties. Favorites include burnt caramel, adzuki bean, licorice, and orange chocolate. Owner Ray Ford draws inspiration from his spice shop next door to create other one-of-kind flavors like honey lavender, lemon-thyme, rose (made with real rose petals), and chamomile. All the ice ... read more

Great Ice Cream Treat – Homemade ice cream with interesting flavors. There were so many that captured my interest that it was hard to settle on one. I went with Banana Cinnamon, it tasted just like a muffin. They give you quite a bit as well, especially when ordering with a cone (I was surprised). It's a busy place, but the line moves along quickly. Not enough seating

Rude service but great icecream! – The icecream was delicious and the flavors were varied and unique. However, the service was rude. The place was not busy at all and yet it took several throat-clearings and "excuse me" before any of the three employees asked us what we wanted. When I made it to the register, I had barely received my change when an employee with a broom pushed me aside and told me to move, rather than asking nicely as one would expect. I tend to like to be able to gather my things, put my change away and mov... read more

Nice dessert after going to HAVELI – I come here for the oreo or cookie dough after a delicious dinner at Haveli across the street, if I've not already had one of their homemade desserts.

This is where milk and cream go to heaven – This is by far the best Ice cream joint in the city. Try at least the Burnt Sugar ice cream or the Maple Walnut and you will be a believer. Its so good its orgasmic.... almost.

Inman Square's haven for award-winning ice cream. – The Scene Ice cream lovers of all stripes make their way to Christina's for a taste of one of its 40-plus homemade varieties. On busy weekend nights, lines often stretch out the door, even in December. There are only a few tables, so most patrons have to make do licking their cones on the sidewalk. Many visitors skip dessert at neighboring restaurants to come here for a sweet finish to their meal. Scoopers are helpful in explaining the many unique flavors (what is adzuki be... read more

quality and attitude. – Christina's ice cream is fantastic. I couldn't pick a favorite. The bad part is that I think you have to have a horrible attitude to work in Christina's. The rude you are, the better pay? Customer service is non existent here. I wonder what the owner thinks. I have stopped going to this place because there is no way I am going to pay to get harrassed.

Delicious and Delightful – Wow! The best ice cream I have ever had, ever! Words cannot explain. Truly homemade premium goodness. I've had pumpkin, cinammon rice pudding, and carrot cake and I will keep going back for more! You must try it!! I went on an empty winter night, but I would stand in line outside in the cold rain if I needed to!
