History

Established in 2011.

We are a family owned business that had a love for Ice Cream. We wanted to own a business that would bring happiness to people. So we took our love for Ice Cream and set out to find a business opportunity. This led us to Gunther’s Ice Cream.

Gunther’s Ice Cream has proudly served the Sacramento community with their Ice Cream for 71 years. We worked closely with the Gunther’s team to bring you the famous Ice Cream at another location. See you soon!

Great place with great service. They have plenty of flavors to choose from. Plus an extended list of other desserts like my favorite the root beer float. The icing on the cake is that they serve gunthers freeze ice cream without the long line down the block.

This place was large and the customer service was awesome. I ordered an oreo one scoop in a cup with chocolate hardened on top. So delicious. Tasted just like an oero.

This place NEVER disappoints. The best ice cream, snow cones and desserts! My kids and I usually go once a week in the summer. Its a fun place to hang out and the customer service is really awesome. The owners know the regulars and always are super friendly to everyone.
I highly recommend this place. You cant beat the price, friendliness and the quality!

This little ice-​cream shop is the place to stop. When you walk in you can already smell the sweet cream and waffle cones that are delish! Ask for a sample then order not one but 2 or 3 scoops cause its crazy good. I like the Taro and Coconut Pineapple and specially a good hot fudge sundae YES! The staff is great ! they have tables and chairs to sit and enjoy your ice-​cream and think what PINT you will be taking TO GO :)
The menu on the wall offers a wide variety of desserts and drinks like Boba Teas.

I really miss this place. My favorites were rum-​raisin and pistachio. I’d always get those. The owners were always very nice. Hope to go back some day.

My new place to get some local ice cream! Go! You will not be disappointed. I don’t know about the summertime but it’s surely good. Worth every penny!

Creamy, delicious ice cream. We sampled a few different flavors and loved the taro flavor and the coconut pinapple flavor. The taro was creamy and had just the amount of taro flavor and sweetness. The coconut pinapple add the right consistency of both items mixed into the vanilla ice cream. This is a fun little shop to stop by for a quick treat.

I like this place. The employees are friendly and accommodate my taste and combo requests (three flavors in one quart!). And, I mean really, they sell Gunther’s ice cream. That says it all. Get the lemon cream flavor. It’s what they serve in heaven.
The only problem I have with this place is the location. That parking lot at 65th and Folsom is not big enough for all the patrons of those businesses. I’ve gone over there to shop and after circling for a while have left again and gone without the products and services of the businesses in that shopping center. They ought to figure something out.

i decided to upgrade this place to five stars just for being so consistently nice.
Ive now been coming here since 2011 — and man. These folks are always super consistent in their service. And like i said before… its all the gunther’s awesome without the gunther’s line. I really hope they get a lot of business because they deserve it.

Can’t believe I haven’t been here sooner in the year and 8 mos I have been here. I saw them on a cover of a local magazine. They are famous for their ice cream, but being asian owned, they also sell boba tea. Very unique tea flavors other than your usual green tea or black tea. Some examples are rose black tea, peach oolong, peach black and much more and they aren’t just made with syrup… the tea actually has rose petals. Friendly service and very helpful! Will definitely be back.

So I go in on a Friday… I feel like treating myself after a long week, as one does. I order a milkshake… Which was delicious… and just as I go to take my first sip of said delicious milkshake, an employee says something to the effect of «that’s a great way to get diabetes!»
Ouch.
Great ice cream… but that was a little too much truth for me… I guess I’ll be getting vegetables to treat myself from now on. :/​
The ice cream is delicious though.

I actually like coming here more than Gunthers, I feel like I get more bang for my buck. And you know, short lines, more ice cream? I’m pretty happy. 10% check in offer + student discounts as well!
I’ve come here 3 times now I believe? They serve my favorite ice cream and I don’t have to wait in an astronomical line!
Birthday cake, cookie dough, vanilla and cookies and cream. Those are my absolute favorites.
It’s a quaint little shop, when I went we got served right away, but as soon as we sat down about 15 people entered!
Still if you’re looking for a Gunthers fix come to what’s a scoop! Lots of parking and lots of ice cream!

I’ve been to this location about 5 times & let me just say I love this place! No lines at all and I mainly cole for Gunther ice cream 50⁄50 freeze. My husband loves the banana split.
The staffs are really friendly and makes you feel welcomed. Great cute place in a quiet area with no traffic. I definitely recommend this place!

Whats the scoop? The scoop is that this place is skimpy with their freeze. I drove to hagans to buy some freeze just to see it was closed so i was on a freeze craving mission. I saw this place had good reviews so i drove to it. They sell gunthers ice cream and freeze. Im not a fan of gunthers freeze it comes no where near hagans. I still go the freeze this should hold me over till next weeks.
The freeze is really icy not like that smooth snow texture that they have at hagans. The large freeze was cheap tho compared to the 10 dollar large at hagans but i guess u get what u pay for. If u like gunthers ice cream but hate the long lines then i recommend u go here. NO LINE AT ALL this wasnt my scoop of ice cream i rather go to hagans. Ok ok i’ll stop mentioning hagans lol im just a loyal fan of it tho. I wont be back here ever again but u might like it give it a try, or nahhh lol

If anyone knows me, they know I love fruity stuff & ice cream all day, any day!
This place hit that perfect craving spot all at once. The Fruit Freeze is my ultimate go-​to craving dessert! They serve all sorts of desserts ranging from shaved ice, to boba, to sundae’s, to blended drinks, and of course — ice cream! Even better, their ice cream is Gunther’s ice cream (YUM :)
Prices are reasonable and servings are just about right.
My go-​to order is the fruit freeze — flavors: strawberry and mango. ice cream: taro. (thanks to the lovely lady who suggested the taro ice cream)
Since it’s been hitting the 100’s lately in hot sunny sacramento valley, the main thing you’ll hear come out of my mouth is, «I want What’s the Scoop!» lol. Trust me, you’ll get hooked.

First Timer here! Was craving ice cream ALL week and this place hit the spot perfectly. Starting wt 10% off my order since it was my first check in on Unilocal!Followed by super friendly attentive service, and a variety of flavors to pick from. They even offered to let us sample. My 17 year old son got a triple scoop and couldn’t finish the whole thing. That boy can put away ice cream so you know the servings were generous. I enjoyed a double scoop & helped him finish his triple… No wasting amazing ice cream, that’s practically a crime! Highly recommend this place if you enjoy ice cream.

Wow. Who knew there would be such good boba in Sacramento of all places. Wanted to catch up with an old friend and she said there was a good boba place she wanted to show me. I was pretty skeptical. But the owner apparently stayed in Taiwan for awhile and learned how to brew tea and make boba the proper way.
Every cup is brewed upon order and the flavors of the tea are all really good. Like Peach Oolong, White Grape Oolong, etc. High quality tea, with good flavor and customizable sweetness levels, etc. I’ll definitely be back.
