Very good ices but boy this is expensive! High price for what really amounts to frozen sugar water. And the people can't get enough of it!
There are 2 benches to sit which are always full, long lines depending on the time, hard to park...all for sugar water! Granted my kid likes it so we go but I don't even get anything. Their ice cream is good...but so expensive!
This location also isn't open year round. Lots of construction going on there so I'll probably avoid going until the dust settles so to speak.

Order the whole chicken with 2 sides (21.00). The 3 condiments that accompany the chicken are excellent. The chicken was succulent and crisp on the outside. We ate entire chicken on site. It was very juicy. The waitress was accomdating and easy on the eyes.The Greek salad was fresh and tasty. They did not have any greens left that evening so I got the fries. The fries were good but hardly warm. They must have been sitting for a while underneath those wannabe warmers with lights. Other than that the meal was very good and enough for 2 people.

My wife and I randomly stopped here for dinner one night and absolutely loved it. We loved it so much that we had them cater my father-in-law’s 70th birthday for about 40 people. They did an incredible job. Try the herbal fish, it’s incredible!!

We regularly visit this small Japanese restaurant and are never disappointed. The sushie and rolls we order are an assortment with shrimp, salmon, eel, calamari and avocado. The restaurant is always crowded especially for the week day lunch buffet, an excellent value at $14.95.
We got the orders within 20 minutes. The dishes are elaborately presented and served almost making them pieces of art.
It's worth driving even 50 miles for a visit.

The first time we ate here was last Easter Sunday. Yearning for something sweet, we stopped by this restaurant and ordered 2 types of desserts for take out.
This time we decided to have our lunch here. We ordered Enchilada with grilled chicken and Quesadilla with sweet pork for our main entrees. They were served with salads, beans and rice. For desserts, we ordered 2 Tres Leches, which we preferred over the Key Lime dessert.
Our foods were delicious and promptly served. We selected the meats we wanted in our sandwiches and the items to be added to them such as lettuce, tomatoes, cheese, dressings, etc. Our desserts were prepared and taken to our table when done.
Total of our foods and drinks is about $35. There is no need for tipping since you take your own foods to your table.
We 're definitely dining here again and try their other dishes. Note that they don't serve hot beverages, only cold drinks. Wished they serve hot tea or hot cocoa!

I told my husband I had eaten here, and he wanted to try it w/me. We each got our own pizza. Nice they offer gluten free crust, along w/traditional and multi-grain. You have 1/2 dozen sauces to pick from, lots of toppings and garnishments at the end. I was disappointed they no longer offer falafel as a topping. I did like the pesto sauce and the mushroom sauce. I did not like that people arrived after us, and I felt rushed deciding my toppings w/a line behind me. But, I always feel this way at these type of assembly-line food-ordering establishments. We both also ordered a drink; husband had black cherry coke, and I had interesting root beer...free refills.
