He made a quick stop from our way back Mount Mitchell and great banners that says 24 flavors of soft serving was enough to stop us and we wanted to try. Love the variety they have and how they do not serve too sweet, as with other soft ice cream. Even my parents in the law tried it when we told them less sugar. The best part is its cost friendly. Would like to stop next time and try other flavors.

Love this place, but the milk shakes this year are runny and not much taste. I think for extra peanut butter the last few times, maybe it was my taste buds that were out. I have not seen any of the older women who usually work there every year, hopefully how the season goes to work on the girls will prefect their shake skills. Another great place for your ice cream fix though

Last night sat for the first time and enjoyed a waffle cone with 2 cups of *best* ice!! I wish I would be in the area longer to try a banana column or a sun bank. They are almost busy every time we buy, and now we know why!

While visiting Little Switzerland, NC near Marion, my wife and I discovered Dots Dario while looking for a cool treat to enjoy in the heat. Despite the hot weather, we decided to go with scoop ice cream instead of soft serve, and we were impressed by the variety of flavors available. My wife loved the low sugar pecan ice cream, and I enjoyed the dark chocolate raspberry truffle - both were delicious! The cozy atmosphere of the building and the welcoming staff enhanced our visit, making it a delightful experience that we would happily do again.

We absolutely love visiting Dots for their tasty ice cream whenever we're out and about. It may be a bit on the expensive side, but the quality is definitely worth it. We always manage to find a reason to swing by just for a little indulgence. Treat yourself and give them a chance. We particularly suggest trying their waffle cone selections.
