Sebastian Joe's

My family has been going to Sebastian Joe's since I was a child. They have really delicious, high quality ice cream and unique ice cream flavors. I consider it to be some of the best ice cream in the Twin Cities. My personal favorites are the Oreo flavor, the raspberry chocolate chip, and Pavarotti (caramel, bananas, and chocolate chips). They redid the Linden Hills location a while ago, and it now has really awesome outdoor seating area and a fireplace, along with more seating. They have two locations, one is at 43rd and Upton in Linden Hills and the other is at Franklin and Hennepin. They also sell coffee and baked goods which are baked fresh everyday. They also have ice cream cookie sandwiches and ice cream cakes made with their signature flavor, raspberry chocolate chip ice cream, which I have not yet had the chance to try, but definitely would like to. The shop is named Sebastian Joe's after the three founders' grandfather Sebastiano, who was nicknamed Joe after arriving in New York from Italy.
