Description

This old-fashioned shop doesn't serve ice cream that tastes like steak or booze. Such edgy preparations wouldn't jive with the retro soda-fountain-style decor and the clientele. Instead, classics like pistachio and cookies and cream fill the sugar cones and house-made ice cream sandwiches. Savory sandwiches ― egg salad and a good burger, among others - are also available, though most customers treat them like an appetizer to the ice cream, not the main event. Keep in mind that Joe's doesn't take credit cards.

  • 2006 | Best Ice Cream

    Ice cream -- like burritos, pizza, and burgers -- has its partisans. Some like it sweet, some like it creamy, and some like it not at all (freaks). In the sweet camp you'll find supporters of the Mission District's venerable Mitchell's, which we like well enough when we're at that end of town. But we're more firmly ensconced in the creamy camp, and for that there's no better place than Joe's Ice Cream in the Richmond District. The somewhat grungy stools-and-counter-style diner has a...

  • 2002 | Best Ice Cream

    There is reason to rejoice in these difficult times. As topsy-turvy as the world may be, one thing is certain: You can count on the ice cream at Joe's to comfort the taste buds and soothe the soul. The recipes and homemade blending techniques have gone unchanged for the better part of half a century. And it will continue to be so, despite the recent threat that Joe's would lose its lease. Some last-ditch negotiation and a souring economy saved this Richmond District landmark from being... More »

  • 2001 | Best Ice Cream

    Get your scoops of 42 homemade flavors while you can, as a nonrenewable lease may force the Murashige family from the popular Richmond District ice cream parlor and grill that has been a landmark on the corner of Geary and 18th since World War II. Mutsuhiko Murashige bought Joe's when he immigrated to San Francisco from Japan in the late 1970s, preserving the original recipes of now long-forgotten but classic flavors like rum raisin, butter brickle, and root beer swirl. Murashige, who makes... More »

  • 2000 | Best Ice Cream

    Mutsuhiko Murashige has mastered all the standards of the all-American treat while adding a few improvements of his own. At Joe's, one can indulge in a green tea sundae or two scoops of adzuki bean ice cream. Murashige immigrated to San Francisco from Japan and bought the little Richmond District ice cream parlor that had been selling cones since World War II. He didn't change the name because Joe's was easy for customers to remember and pronounce. But Murashige did challenge their taste... More »
