El Oasis - Urbana

Really amazing ice cream spot. Excellent paletas that are homemade!!

We had a couple of the fruity Popsicles. They were very tasty. This is a nice little place, hidden behind Walgreens at 5 points in Urbana.

Great local ice cream shop with a Hispanic touch. Friendly people

I love this little Mexican ice cream shop on Cunningham. It's tucked away in the little strip mall behind Walgreens, I'm surprised more people don't come here but that's okay with me, less crowded so I can get my desserts faster. I got the coconut paleteria, made with real coconut chunks, it's authentic just like you would find all over Mexico and it was so good. The ice cream scoops I got was spicy chocolate, strawberries and cream and corn. The spicy chocolate had a hint of heat, the strawberries and cream was probably my favorite and corn ice cream had little pieces of corn, reminded a little of corn bread but you could taste the natural sweetness of the corn, I recommend. This is a great place to grab something cold on a hot day. They also served sandwiches and tamales if you were a little more hungry and wanted something more filling. They had so many varieties of Mexican flavors I have to come back and try them all. Great for groups or after a dinner date. Support local.

Went here for my first time and was very impressed! The strip mall that it's attached to is pretty unassuming, but this is definitely a diamond in the rough. The prices are super reasonable and the staff is very friendly. Their ice cream tasted really great, and they offer flavors not seen anywhere else in other ice cream shops around town. We didn't try any, but they also had a large variety of cool popsicles that looked really beautiful. Would highly recommend making the trip out to try it for yourself!
