Little Jimmy’s Italian Ice

Found this place at the Atlanta Food Truck Festival. The line was ridiculous! 2 line to purchase the cups for the italian ice and one line to get your italian ice. What a mess!
However, their mango italian ice made up for all of it. They have other flavors like piña colada, watermelon, and cherry are interesting. The piña colada’s taste was very faint. Get the Mango Flavor! You will not regret it!

Doug & Teresa are some of the BEST people I ever met! I don’t know what Jang C. is talking about. The italian ice is superb, delicious, and always tasty-​no matter what flavor! Chocolate is now my favorite ice! :) Service is prompt and always with a smile! I recommend this wonderful treat!

We met Doug (one of the owners of Little Jimmy’s) today at the American Legion — Post 140 on Chastain Park today. Not only were his shaved ice’s great, he is a great guy. I don’t understand the last posters issues, maybe they had a bad day or maybe John or his wife were having a one off issue with some new technology… we’ve all been there right!
Anyway — we found mixing flavors to be awesome… and mixing in liquor even better! We sat on the deck mixing cherry and lemon, mango and lemon, and all of them with vodka or rum. We found out he has his ice shipped from New Jersey because the ice down here just doesn’t have the same consistency, flavor or melt rate… I have no point of reference but it was the bomb!
I suggest if you are having a bad day, go old school… bring cash and add some booze to it and happy days!
PS — we found out Doug is a 28 yr Army veteran when he asked to join the Legion. We love our vets and I love to support veteran owned businesses… so find these guys wherever they are and enjoy some tasty ice while supporting a family who served our country with honor.

I went to this cart because I wanted some dessert. They only had 4 flavors: lemon, chocolate, strawberry, and blueberry. Strawberry was the only decent one. So I got that. Here’s where it started to get bad.
I tried using LevelUp to pay. She messed around with her phone for like 5 minutes until she told me that she couldn’t log in due to password problems.
So I was like, no problem. And I gave her my credit card. She swiped my card a billion times through her Square, and it would not read. So she asked me to read the number out to her. The number would not go through because she didn’t know it was American Express. I guess there’s an option to choose what card it is on the Square app. I read the number out twice to her and she couldn’t get it. .
So finally, I gave her my MasterCard, and it went through after she swiped it a million times. This probably took about 15 minutes to pay. My ice was sitting out in the heat, melting while all this was taking place. She should’ve given me some type of discount for taking so long.
Well, I started to eat my Strawberry Ice. After 3 – 4 bites, I realized it sucked. The flavors tasted too artificial. The sample didn’t taste too bad, but after eating a few spoonfuls, it got terrible quick. After a ¹⁄₃ way in, I had to throw it away because I couldn’t finish it. What a waste of $ 3.50.
Speaking of which, paying $ 3.50 for flavored ice in a plastic cup feels like a rip off to me. I would avoid this place and just go to King of Pops or the other dessert food trucks. If you must get this, just pay cash and make it easier for them.
