This is a really fun and unique spot! If you're nearby, it's definitely worth a visit. For the ice cream, I highly recommend the vanilla/prickly pear swirl with a lime coating. The flavors are fantastic, and they complement each other perfectly
I had lunch at Gilbert downtown and the architecture of Topo attracted me to check out their menu. One of the highlights of my visit was the prickly pear ice cream, absolutely delicious! I ordered "twist" with chocolate dip - It’s a combination of vanilla and prickly pear. I highly recommend trying it as it’s a unique treat you won't find everywhere. Tips - There are more seating behind Topo. It looks like a small picnic area with lot of sparrows and shades. I would definitely come back and try other menu items.
This place was very interesting. I loved the night atmosphere and vibe. I got the chicken Topo Loco with no hot sauce, but the chicken was coated is some sort of other hot sauce because it was too hot to even finish. I definitely have a low spice tolerance but half of the people in my family didn’t even finish theirs either. BUT, I will say if this was not spicy it would be my favorite burrito ever! Adding fritos inside is so creative and I loved the crunch. Overall, 4 stars but if there was no spice this would easily be in my top 3 favorite burritos
To be completely transparent, we did not try anything on the menu, except for the prickly pear swirl ice cream, with the lemon topping. It was delicious! The other surprising thing was the price. $3.50 for a uniquely Arizona treat they could easily sell for five or six dollars. The guy behind the counter was very friendly and informative. They had lots of seating in the shade on the side and behind the little shack. We will definitely go back.
A very fun and unique place to visit. Definitely stop by if you are in the area. If you go for the icecream i recommend a vanilla/prickly pear swirl with a lime coating. Both the ice cream and coating has great flavor and goes well with each other. I’m not the biggest fan of the prickly pear coating. A very dull flavor the comes off as a weak chocolate. This isn’t the case with the icecream, just the coating. Be prepared for your icecream to immediately start melting in the AZ heat. That’s just Arizona!
