"Delicious treat for the whole family after a trip to the Fort Wayne zoo. Lots of ice cream and treat options very similar to Culver's. Portions are huge and very affordable. There is no in-dining so that may be how they keep prices down. You can do walk up or drive thru. Thru do some some outdoor seating but it was very hot that day we visited so we enjoyed our ice cream our vehicle. Highly recommend for a local tasty treat."

"This is the #1 ice cream in my book, and all others pale in comparison. Rich, creamy, and consistently delicious. Though they have many different offerings, the vanilla swirl is my favorite, and my husband loves the chocolate vanilla swirl. To Prompt and polite service."

"We went here on a Friday night just prior to closing and got immediately served in the Drive-Thru lane. We ordered a few of the Razzles and each of us loved them! We brought a couple of our dogs with us and they each received their own pup cup. This is my second time here and have been very pleased with the friendly service and the quality of the treats."

"Popular place for ice cream during warmer months. Not open in the winter. We like that they have most of their menu in frozen yogurt as well as ice cream because of some dairy intolerance issues. The dipped cones are great. The razzle is like a blizzard. There are a few places to sit outside and eat your treat The parking lot can get crazy, so if it’s after 5 we park next door to avoid all the people and cars in the drive through."

"This visit to zestos wasn’t for ice cream this time even though I’m sure it would’ve been great as usual. This time however, the alternator went out in my car and it’s an expensive fix that I unfortunately, due to cancer treatment I cannot afford right now. My car rolled in about 10 mins to close and the young ladies working told me it was fine to charge my battery without hesitation. Soon after the owners came out and helped me jump my car and charged my jump starter for me for close to 30 mins. You would be so surprised how many people wouldn’t do that for another human being. I was bummed out because of being stranded and a little frazzled so I forgot to get their names but, this was the only way I could think of to repay their kindness and to let them know it meant the world to me. Side note: I saw on here a few low ratings and since I am on the topic of kindness, I think people need to remember that 90% if not more of the staff are high school kids just starting to learn how to navigate the work force and before we, as adults get on here and judge children harshly maybe look inward and ask ourselves “did I order a slushie which is essentially a cup of crushed flavored ice at 4-5pm when it feels like it’s 110 degrees out and expected it not to melt quickly?” Or “did I pull through the drive thru with my family of 5 5 minutes before they close and maybe that’s why my order didn’t look quite as stellar as usual?” Make good choices. I don’t know where anyone else is going but, I haven’t been able to walk away from anywhere with a decent ice cream without spending close to 10 bones a head besides Zestos since ive been responsible for buying my own ice cream."
