Who doesn't love a delicious dessert? The one I had was indulgently rich and filled with nuts. I chose the ice cream sundae.

I was very disappointed with this small ice cream shop. The staff were exceptionally rude, and the milkshakes were as thin as water! I ordered a medium hot fudge sundae, and when the employee asked if I wanted whipped cream and nuts, I said no. She then gave me just a single scoop of ice cream with hot fudge on top and proceeded to make a fuss about it with her coworkers. The employees were very disrespectful and unprofessional.

This place is serving melted ice cream! My kids have always loved Eskamoe’s, but today was different. There was a sign in the window indicating that they were experiencing air conditioning issues and that the custard might be soft. There were five of us, and when our order wasn’t being called, we went up to the counter only to find three of our five items just sitting there, melting (ice cream and snow cones). When our order was finally ready, we were handed five melted items. If there are issues with the AC or freezer, it's best to close until they can be repaired. The Mailman certainly didn’t deliver today!

Fabulous experience! I was traveling through and wanted some ice cream. This custard was heavenly and the whipped cream divine. The employee at the drive through window was friendly and asked me about my travels. Everyone definitely needs to experience the nirvana of flavors. Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

I love this place. I especially love the shaved ice. Most people may like their's with flavors. I just enjoy it plain. I sometimes order their banana split mini, sooo delicious and the prices are even better! A must try Service: Takeaway Meal type: Other Price per person: $1–10 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5 Recommended dishes: Shaved Ice

A beloved local ice cream shop known for inventive custards and memorable custom creations, offering caramel, cotton-candy and specialty concretes alongside healthier options. Spacious seating and scenic views make it group-friendly, and many staff are praised for patient, personalized service. However, experiences vary: some customers report rude employees, thin milkshakes, poorly blended concretes, soggy snacks and refund difficulties after changes in management. Worth visiting for creative flavors and generous portions, but be prepared for inconsistent service and occasional menu limitations.

I drive here everyday ???? I live in Union parish and this is literally my go to place for shaved ice and ice cream. The employees are always very nice and kind. I always order a medium shaved ice wild cherry light on syrup and they always fix it exactly how I like. The prices are very reasonable so I always have my $2.01 ready unless I order a large then $2.97. It?s the best I have found. I get my shaved ice and park across the street at the park I consider that my ?metime?. ????

Great place to hang out with family for a little while after a ballgame or other school function. Has a few food items here like hot dogs... not just dessert. The dessert was alright.

Today, I ventured around Ruston in search of some shaved ice with cream—it's been a summer favorite of mine for as long as I can remember. I brought my two youngest kids along, and my little boy had the exciting opportunity to go inside the shop and make all three of our snow cones himself. He was over the moon! It was really generous of the gentleman there (I regret not catching his name) to give him that chance. My son can't stop talking about it! This place is truly wonderful for families. Thank you for bringing a little extra joy to my son's day! #BoyMom

I had a fantastic experience at this restaurant! The service was outstanding, and the ice cream was incredible! I loved the beautiful views and the overall ambiance. I’m looking forward to coming back! There’s plenty of seating, making it an ideal place for gathering a large group to enjoy some ice cream or delicious Fritos pies!

The restaurant offers a wide variety of delicious custards and other desserts. The staff was also very courteous. I strongly recommend trying the cheesecake or the salted caramel!

Awesome and Inexpensive. Man Eskamoe's is great! The service is quick and everyone who works there is very friendly. I have been longing for a frozen custard place to come to Ruston and Eskamoe's has filled that void! The area that Eskamoe's is located in a very nice development with a lot of outdoor seating and a gas fire pit. Compared to the other places ice cream places Eskamoe's is really inexpensive. If you go to Maggie Moo's and buy for two people you could easily spend $8-10 but at Eskamoe's me and my wife can eat for under $5.

The custard here is outstanding, boasting a rich and delicious flavor—certainly among the best I've ever tasted. I was especially impressed by how well the vanilla custard complements one of the 33 flavors available. The menu offers a broad range of dishes, allowing you to enjoy a complete meal before treating yourself to their amazing custard. Just a quick note: there’s a walk-up counter or a drive-thru option, and while there are outdoor tables, there is no indoor seating.

I had a wonderful experience during my visit. This is undoubtedly the best frozen custard I've ever had. The service was prompt and friendly, and it's also the most budget-friendly place I've found. My family of four spent just a little over $10 on our order.

Eskamoes is truly amazing! I've been to other ice cream shops in town like Maggie Moo's and TCBY before they transformed into Smoothie King and Baskin-Robbins, and I've also sampled Skidocope before it shut down. While Maggie Moo's is quite expensive and their staff wasn't very welcoming, the other three locations have now closed, leaving us with this fantastic ice cream haven at Eskamoes. I tried the caramel custard, which isn’t even on the menu, and it was absolutely delicious! If you're a fan of sweet and salty combinations, this is the perfect treat for you. I also had the cotton candy ice cream, and it was wonderfully rich and creamy. For those of you looking for healthier options, the health concrete is a great choice, and even the apple ice dish was a pleasant surprise. If you stop by, I highly recommend starting with the Brezel Caramel Custard!

The chocolate shake was okay, but it tasted more like vanilla custard with chocolate syrup rather than a true chocolate custard. It didn’t have a robust chocolate flavor. My wife ordered a vanilla waffle cone, which she liked. However, their custard isn't as rich as what we've had at other places. While it wasn't bad, it also didn't leave a lasting impression. We're not against returning, but there's nothing particularly enticing that draws me back either.

The quality and service at this restaurant are consistently excellent. My top choice is the turtle dish, but there are many other options available on the menu as well.
