Perfect for a hot summer day. Everyone in my party loved what they got!! Wish they had more vegan options though. It was worth it though! Ordering was easy.

Makes for cute photos and nice hangout spot.

Beach views can't be beat! I like meeting my parents here (who love a good burger), or biking in from Sheridan Park to treat myself. I spent many a day as a teen at this beach, and really could've used this Grille back then!

We stopped by Better Together Cafe recently for some coffee and breakfast on a late Saturday morning. I ordered their pistachio latte which was a sweet nutty delight. Truly one of the best pistachio lattes I've had in the area. For my meal, I got their caprese sandwich which was delicious. It's made with pesto (instead of fresh basil) but no complaints here--the pesto was delicious and the sandwich was hearty and tasty. The parking is on site is on site and convenient. The service was above and beyond friendly. Get to it!

Sandwiches are perfectly sized, made with soft bread, filled with fresh ingredients although I'll usually opt for a mini version of the sandwich and pair it with a cup of soup (multiple soup options daily!). I've yet to have a sandwich here that I didn't thoroughly enjoy and I always check the monthly specials too. I appreciate the condiment bar filled with pickles, black olives and various peppers to add some extra spice to my sandwiches, including small to-go containers. The yummy ice cream offered is Maggie Moo's and is priced by weight, with different flavors offered at each Chocolate Factory location. The punch card is an extra bonus for customers to accumulate punches for a free sundae or sandwich.

We came here randomly after wanting to get some ice cream or gelato--finally stumbled upon this…read moreplace and decided to give it a shot. They have a bunch of gelato flavors, boba sundaes, Italian ice, and more! I decided to get a scoop of Superman gelato in a cup. If you were born in the 1900s, you might have had this flavor at a TCBY as a kid. Well, I had to go for it and it tasted JUST like I remembered! It's a couple different flavors in one scoop--blue vanilla, pink bubblegum, yellow lemon and green sherbet or something like it. Either way it was great and was only $6. My fiancée got one scoop of the mango gelato and it it was also very good and didn't have too much mango that it was overpowering. Hers was also $6, which isn't too bad for a scoop of gelato in this day and age. But they do have soft serve cones for $3.50ish if you want regular soft serve and don't want to spend as much money. The inside is cute and has neon signs of different things, it wasn't very busy when we were there. It is in the middle of a strip mall but don't let the outside fool you--the service was great and helpful. We weren't sure what was included in the boba or Italian ice and they were nice enough to tell us. I'd come back to try the Italian ice or to get the Superman scoop when I want some nostalgia.

Trattoria di Carlo(TDC): Just south of Milwaukee, TDC opened in Oak Creek, WI nearly 25 years ago…read morein 2002. Founder Carlo Pedone utilized his grandmother's recipes that she brought from Sicily. 2021 saw the restaurant close, but after a brief hiatus, it was revived by new owner Frank Carini in 2023. Carini still uses all of Carlo's original recipes. My experiences with the restaurant go all the way back to high school as my parents are fans of TDC's pizza. I'm going to get it right out there, I am not. Not as a teen, nor on second chances as an adult, which is why I'm reviewing their gourmet lasagna instead. Carlo's recipe fills the lasagna with ricotta cheese and tops it with a beef meat sauce. All of this is also smothered in mozzarella cheese. Two observations (not necessarily complaints), the first is that the lasagna was not as "tall" or stacked as what I typically experience, being flatter instead. Second, I thought it was interesting that a large amount of the toppings were not actually on the lasagna but instead trailed it. I know this does not sound appetizing, but it reminded me of a snail and its trail of mucus (with the lasagna representing the snail and the trail of cheese/toppings being the mucus). Anyways, before you scold me for that unappetizing simile, the gourmet lasagna at TDC was tasty and is Doughboy approved . Only I would order a dessert drink to kick off the meal I had there with my family, but let's be real, it's better than an appetizer. TDC's version of a chocolate martini is made with Five Farms Irish Cream, Chocolate Liqueur, and vodka. There was also obviously a little chocolate sauce, which the menu description omitted (along with the brand of vodka). You could taste the alcohol, but I wouldn't say it was overly boozy. It was just about right for a martini (which is still a lot for a lightweight like me). With a sweet tooth like mine, it still beats any standard martini, even if it's not the best chocolate martini I've ever experienced. Shaken or stirred, this dessert martini is Doughboy approved . Additionally, I included pictures of the fried Mozzarella Sticks and Ricotta-cheese filled ravioli we had for appetizers. The Mozzarella sticks were crispy on the outside and stuffed with melty cheese on the inside (you should have seen the cheese pull, and I wasn't even trying), doughboy approved . The ravioli was just okay . For dessert, I did try a little of my dinning companions' massive chocolate cake slice. There's a creamy chocolate buttercream on top of the slice along with alternating layers throughout the slice. The cake itself was rich and moist, while the frosting was chocolatey and sweet. Chocolate shavings also decorate the top of the slice, which in addition to the visual appeal, add a pleasant crunch that contrasts nicely with the soft and creamy cake. Dessert was easily Doughboy approved Doughboy_Food_Reviews

The menu states a Chicago stuffed pizza and since I'm from Chicago I thought I would try it even though I'm a thin crust cracker fan tavern style pizza from Chicago. Most people people not from Chicago have this misconception that it's a thick crust and they are turned off and say it's pan pizza that has too much crust and I'm tired of correcting them. Yes it's cooked in a pan with a thin crust and high walls like a pie cooked upside down with the cheese and toppings on the bottom and topped with a thin crust or not but the pizza sauce/tomato purée on top. I ordered takeout with a friendly young woman and the restaurant was very nice as I walked around and probably the nicest in the area. My pizza was ready in about 30 minutes and it smelled amazing. I ordered a 12 in stuffed Chicago style pizza with sausage which could feed 4 regular people because it's packed with cheese and toppings/sauce like a pie vs a flat pizza. Halfway into two slices I was full with the meat sweats. The cheese pull was absolutely perfect just out of the oven. The sauce was tasty with a garlic flavor and not sweet which I prefer as an Italian American. The sausage was top quality with some zing. Overall as a chicogan who likes thin over stuffed pizza it was fuc%ing delicious. This is a really tasty pizza with quality ingredients so they hit this pizza out of the park today.

You put in your food order, and pay (cash!) once your name is called and your food is ready. The dining room is permanently closed, so you eat in your car or take it to go. We each went with a single bacon cheeseburger. You can get fried or raw onions, pickles, ketchup, mustard and lettuce. We ordered fries and onion rings to try. The burgers and hand-formed, on the thicker side, and very juicy. They come with a healthy pat of butter on a soft bun. The bacon was thick and well-cooked. Very good! A single is a generous portion, in my opinion - the doubles are huge! The fries are crinkle-cut, but were very soft and not crispy. Not my fave. The onion rings had a lot of breading and were ok. Nothing to run back for. They also have shakes, ice cream, etc. It was a fun outing!

Avoid this location. The employees are given permission by management to verbally abuse customers…read moreif they feel the customer "deserved it." No apology was offered by management and the manager told me that she believes the lies her employees gave her to justify their language. "Respect is mutually given" is what I was told when I explained that an employee called my mom an a** h***. It's mind boggling that the management here tried to explain to me why that is acceptable behavior instead of firing that employee. Professionalism is a joke to these workers and management. To owner Lisa if you're reading this: You have no business working in the customer service industry with this kind of behavior and moral code.
