Dairy Belle Ice Cream

Can’t beat their soft serve ice cream, I get mine with a chocolate dip she’ll but the butterscotch is also quite good. They also have cherry and cotton candy for dip options. Lastly, you cannot leave without ordering the poutine fries. The place is always packed and is a favorite amongst French Canadians in the area. More poutine, ay!

We stopped by this little ice cream place on Highway 1 after a day at the beach. What a pleasant surprise!!! The food and ice cream are delicious, the service is friendly, and the location is convenient! I would recommend this spot 110%. It reminds me of the little ice cream/​burger spots from the 1950’s! Highly recommended!!!

Very disappointed. Waited 30 minutes in line for ice cream with my family of 7 visiting from California. As we get to the window to order, the cashier pokes her head out and proceeds to say a speech out loud to the crowd in french. We waited for the translation. None came. I asked her to translate for us and she said we are out of ice cream. We only have food. What a waste of time. How rude of the worker. I’ll never return.

2 steamés moutarde choux, une Poutine et un petit Twist (crème glacée super douce) miammmm
Merci d’être en Floride! En extra un service souriant et amical. C’est une petite trotte de Miami mais maintenant toutes les excuses sont bonnes pour un stop à Dania. :)

Perpetual summertime in South FLA. My hot fudge sunday with some additional cherry sauce was scrumptious. Plus sitting on the patio enjoying a warm evening was pretty scrumptious too.

«Oh Canada our home and native land…», that’s the Canadian national anthem, the question is why do I know it? Well it’s because I «grew up» in Canada and even though about ¾th’s of my «known» relatives are Canadian citizen’s including my parent’s, I’m not.
DB (Dairy Belle), a haven for Québécois Canadians in the heart of Dania Beach. DB serves of traditional hot dog’s/ corn dog’s/chili dog’s, hamburger’s, ice cream cone’s, milk shakes, french fries, onion rings and sandwiches. But I’m not concerned with any of these and if I was I wouldn’t be buying it from socialist’s invaders with expired tourist visa’s anyway.
Poutine, yes that’s right, I hate the name but it’s called poutine and it’s a common everyday delicacy for our borderline communist Francophone neighbors to the north.
It’s french fries loaded with gravy and gooey delicious cheese curds. Fortunately eating poutine won’t brainwash us freedom loving Americans into accepting Osamacare, wanting paid vacation, institute gender equality or God forbid provide maternity leave.
But after eating their intolerant fascist made poutine we’ll leave with big smile’s on our face’s and drive off into the sunset on our Harley’s and big off-​road tire lifted trucks while youtubing Nascar on our made-​in-​China Iphone’s.

Awesome pit stop otw back from the beach, Exactly what you would think — great fries, shakes, ice cream, hot dogs, burgers. Small, and only outdoor seating. Great spot to fill up after a day of salt and sun.

Amazing ice cream. When I go there I even get a kid size cup for my dog. The poutine is amazing, the best hangover food! Club sandwich is huge

I’m giving it a 4 because this is the most authentic (or even close to authentic) place I’ve found for poutine in my 16 years living in South Florida.
That said, it isn’t perfect. I’ll start with the cost: $ 7 for a small size is steep. Curds must not come cheap, or maybe require importation? Not sure, but the bottom line is that it isn’t cheap eats — it’s a dollar or 2 more than a complete meal at a fast food joint (with a burger and a drink, not just fries).
The small size is about the largest you are going to want to get on a first visit — it may not be huge, but it has a lot of calories. After all, we are talking about what may be the most unhealthy thing to eat on earth — thanks Quebec!
I’d recommend you request that they «bury the curds» on your poutine so they melt more fully. Here they were all on top (to show the customer they are there), but they melt much better when sandwiched in the middle of the whole hot mess.
My other criticism is that the fries weren’t totally cooked (some had that raw flavor, and when you smother fries with gravy, they really should be double-​cooked, belgium style for a crispier and more completely cooked base to minimize soggy-​ness). I also found a little bit of plastic wrapper still attached to a curd, but I’m not fancy, so I don’t really knock them for that.
All in all it was very good, best in this area for sure, but comparable to the poutine I buy in a Costco food court in Canada, where it is about $ 4US.

Dairy belle, I can’t say enough good things about this place. If you’re looking for something that just reminds you of home, this is your place, especially if you’re visiting from the Quebec area.
This place is a local Hollywood staple. They are a quick stop on the way to the beach or they are open late when you don’t just want fast food. Their pulled chicken sandwich, corndogs, soft serve ice cream and most famously their poutine NEVER disappoint.
This joint always hits the spot. I can’t recommend it enough!

The food is amazing! Polenta fries to die for! They have an a delicious cotter candy vanilla cone !!

Best soft serv by the beach and for a low price as well. I wanted to try something else from this place so when I looked it up on Unilocal,lots of reviews said to try the Poutin, a Canadian specialty, and it was pretty good but soooooooo unhealthy. So try it out once but get ready to feel slow and groggy but satisfied after your choice.

So good. One of the best soft serve ice cream I’ve had. Quick service. The Poutine is fresh and good. Only place to get this outside of Quebec. My Fort Lauderdale place to go for over cream. Has plenty of outdoor seating.

One of the best Poutine even compared to the original Poutine Québécoise, try it and you’ll be hooked.
La meilleure Poutine à l’extérieur du Québec, bravo à la famille Grenier de Victoriaville pour offrir un menue typiquement Québécois en Floride.
Keep up the good work.

this place is always so busy, been going there for years. the reason it’s so busy is simple; the food is AMAZING. My favorite thing to order is the chicken club sandwich with poutine fries and a chocolate banana shake.
The chicken club has sliced juicy all white meat chicken, bacon, tomatoes lettuce and mayonaise all on thin toast.
The poutine has REAL french fries, brown gravy and the most perfect cheese curds ever.
The chocolate banana milk shake? REAL chocolate ice cream and a whole banana goes into the blender. no flavorings, it’s the real deal.

Poutine!!! Best place in South Florida to get authentic Poutine (with cheese curds done just right). This place is great! But beware, it gets VERY busy and sometimes hard to get seating. The place is owned by a Canadian couple and have brought a little bit of the flair to South Florida. They serve awesome soft serve and great burgers. The burgers are big, first time I came I ordered a double and regretted it immediately.
Whenever I am back in town, we always hit up Dairy Belle. Its even a great treat coming home from the beach!

Best soft serve ice cream in the WHOLE WORLD. No joke this place serves the creamiest, lightly sweet vanilla soft serve that beats DQ any day!
There might be a line wrapped around this tiny little ice cream shack but it’s well worth the wait. Dairy Belle also caters to the Canadian snowbirds serving up hefty platters of poutine.
This place is a MUST after a day at the beach– you can even get hamburgers & hot dogs… has a very mom & pop feel that I adore.

I was torn between three and four stars, but decided to go with four because of the uniqueness of this little eatery.
First, the basics. It’s easy to find. If you have to make a left turn into the parking lot and manage to miss it, you can turn at the corner and go into the back of the lot, so you don’t have to go all the way around the block. There is plenty of parking. It’s a small place with no indoor seating, but quite a bit of covered patio area. We got there about 5:30 and didn’t have any trouble finding a spot. The area is clean and there are vats of mustard, ketchup and mayo in easy access, along with napkins.
The staff was friendly and helpful. It took a bit to get our order, but that’s because the fries are made fresh.
We ordered two medium poutines (one each of the traditional and the Italian) and some chili dogs. When they got to the table, we discovered that just one of the poutines would have been plenty. The hotdog was on the ordinary side. The chili was good, but the dog could have been better. If it had been a kosher dog, it would have been great. This one had a bit of an odd texture, and I wouldn’t order it again.
The poutine… now there’s something you don’t get every day! Just the thought of potatoes and gravy appeals to my southern heritage. I wasn’t sure about the twist of the cheese curds, but in general, cheese make nearly everything better. It came to the table steaming hot. The curds had already started to reach melty goodness. I was expecting them to be cheddar, but they were much more similar to mozzarella. The gravy was okay, it didn’t taste homemade, but the whole combination was something that I could definitely live with. The more I ate, the more I wanted. Ironically, the Italian was less of a hit, I thought it would be my favorite. The sauce had plenty of meat, but lacked the correct seasoning for a really good sauce. I was surprised to find that they actually reheated pretty well the next night.
In spite of being pretty well stuffed, with half of each poutine to bring home, we decided there was one dessert that demanded our attention. We had to try the ice cream «Panini.» This was something we’d never seen — a warm brioche bun, stuffed with vanilla soft serve and a choice of chocolate crumbles or apple pie filling. Both of these are said to be imported from Italy. It’s fall, we had to have the apples. The whole thing was delectable. The eggy brioche, the creamy richness of the ice cream and the pie filling which was, indeed, different than any I’d had before. My only wish was that there had been more filling. After a full meal, though, one was easily big enough to share.
I’ll probably never be the same again. I looked at a bowl of mashed potatoes a couple of days later and figured they really needed some cheese curds and gravy. I’ve been ruined for life.

I love this place. my family loves this place. We usually come for the poutine and ice cream, but their hot dogs are good too.
It has a very casual outside patio, which is nice.

I’m a Quebecoise and when I had a Poutine craving, and if you don’t make it yourself at home — one of the few places to go in Florida is Dairy Belle.
We split a medium Poutine, and I ordered a hot dog and my husband got the single cheeseburger.
They have sauerkraut for toppings as well as pickles. The French lady taking my order also asked which kinds of pickles I preferred, Dill or Bread and Butter kinds. Coleslaw is extra.
The burger patty is that frozen thin kind my husband referred to it as «cafeteria food», had bits of cartilage really unappealing.
The Poutine! A good size medium for a Casse Croute, the sauce from powder gravy, the fries frozen kind again but good crispy. Good mozzarella curd cheese, it didn’t melt too much because the gravy wasn’t hot enough. I called my sister up (she lives in Montréal) and she said it’s normal for the cheese to not melt.
Overall pretty authentic poutine. The Casse Croutes that sell them in Quebec usually do make their own fries, which in my opinion makes Poutine That much better. Most places do use powder gravy, others have gourmet gravy with wine, and fried pickles –so good.
I still need to try the ice cream here!

The service was good. The quality of the food is good too, considering the price.
I tried poutine for the first time. And like I thought… I didn’t like it very much. Lol Nothing against the restaurant, just not my thing.
And the ice cream was good too.
Would I come back here? Yes! Would I order poutine again? No way! Haha

My Canadian friends insisted we come here to try poutine. I had never heard of/​tried it before. Evidently it’s fries with gravy and cheese curds. I’m a malt vinegar on fries type of girl so this seemed weird. I gave it a go and it’s not too bad but not my style. They all RAVED about it though-​cleaning their plates and groaning in pleasure the entire time.
I had their fries alone and an ice cream cone (the name is DAIRY belle) and both were awesome. The service was fast and kind, and the place is a cute outdoor covered patio not unlike a Dairy Queen. The prices were a tad high but it was worth it and it seems to be a mom and pop operation.
2 big thumbs up-​this is a 10 minute or so drive for us, so next time they’re in the mood we will likely make the trek over here. Great experience.
