I did a chunky shake with black raspberry syrup. It was delicious. The prices are very fair and encourage splurging. The service was what you would expect from a small town ice cream shop. With so many options, I may need to find more reasons to visit Grimes. The Cookie Monster ice cream was calling my name.

There is always room in your stomach for ice cream - right? Since we had just eaten dinner, we decided to share a Sundae (see picture)...and since the large was only $1 more...why not splurge? While it was very tasty, we did have to eat quite quickly to keep the spill-over-melt situation to a minimum. It was worth every spoonful - if you are in the area, you definitely want to stop and try one of your favorite desserts!

First I just want to say I ordered this on a whim because my normal smoothie place was already…read moreclosed. I ordered a smoothie and large froyo for delivery. It is really sad when I mostly just taste ice in my smoothie and my froyo is not even halfway filled with froyo. I dug into the toppings to see how full of froyo it is and marked a black line on my photo to show how ful this is. It has more toppings on it then froyo. I did not get my moneys worth when it comes to froyo from here And I cannot get anyone to answer the phone. I have now called 3 times to try and get in contact with them. I also got food poisoning which is slightly dusturbing. Will not ask for delivery again Update: Dealing with Grubhub is a gem. I have never had a problem with them and normally if something is wrong I just call the restaurant and I am good. But because I had food poisoning and wanted a refund the manager, who was not in the store, Alan Rudin was a condescending ass. He should not be a manager because he uses no customer service at all. The girls at orange leaf called him and let him know what was going and he told them to have me call him or I could come back tomorrow when he was actually there. I decided to call him and he then proceeded to ignore my call. It took 2 tries to get a hold of him and by then I was not happy. He proceeded to tell he would do nothing to help and it was not his fault. Well here this, Alan Rudin. I am contacting the department of health for your lack of care about food safety in your establishment.

On a whim, we stopped by Freddy's for dinner. Having only visited one of the restaurants in this…read morechain (years ago and in a different state), it was a fresh experience for us. The vibe is old-school diner, and the menu fits right in. Burgers, chicken, and (of course) frozen custard. We went with a burger and some chicken tenders to do a little sampling. Both were very good. Juicy, nice and hot, and flavorful. The tenders come a few different sauce options (we tried the honey mustard dressing and Famous Fry Sauce), and the burgers are seasoned with Freddy's Famous Steak burger & Fry Seasoning. All delicious and all a little unique. We passed on the custard since we ate our fill on their frys, but will see how well they do there next time. Things to know: * This location is just east off Highway 141 (Exit 152, E. 1st Street) * Open until 11:00pm Friday and Saturday, 10:00pm all other days * This location is in the area of various groceries and such making it a handy place to catch a good meal while running errands.

It took ten minutes to get two scoops of custard with two cars in front of me…read more The custard had clearly been dispensed when I ordered, not when I pulled to the window. No reason for the delay was provided. The Culver's on the other side of 141 will be my option next time.

I really liked this restaurant. We came here for lunch and were seated right away. Their menu…read morefeatures barbecue items. They have all of your favorites like brisket, pulled pork, ribs, and burnt ends. They also have breakfast items, desserts, ice cream, burgers, pizza, pastries, a cereal bar, and salads. There is a private parking lot for you to park. They have a huge dining area with private rooms for large parties and special events. The staff there was very friendly. This restaurant is special because it is a place where individuals with special needs learn real-world job skills. I saw them training while I was there and it was awesome. Our server was very friendly and attentive. I ordered the 2-meat platter with pork belly burnt ends, pork belly bacon, potato salad, and baked beans. Be sure to check out their daily specials. They also host brunch. My food was ready in about 5 minutes, and it was fresh and hot. It tasted really good. The burnt ends were my favorite, but it all tasted good, though. I was glad that I made it here and had lunch. I not only liked the food and service but also their mission. This is a very special restaurant, and I highly recommend checking it out.

Triple B's opened at a former Jethro's location in Johnston right along 86th St. Their open house…read morewas in November of 2025, but I think they may have opened in limited capacity before that. Last week we had a chance to stop in. I ABSOLUTELY LOVE the empowerment through employment concept here! Triple B's partners with a few of the different school districts as well as Goodwill and Best Buddies to employ around 30 people with special needs. It not only gives teens and young adults with special needs a chance to enter into, and participate, in it's workforce... The restaurant caters to families with special needs children as a safe space where they aren't looked at differently. It's their world...we're just sharing their table for a few minutes. Parking is plentiful and we had no issues. We were greeted shortly after we walked in and seated towards the East end of the restaurant. Denny was up front along with Brenden. Seating is a mix of high top and low top tables and chairs along with a few bench, table, and chair combos along the walls. The daily hours vary some so check out their online presence's posted hours to make sure they are open when planning your visit. The menu is extensive! Offering everything from breakfast and BBQ, to sandwiches, pizzas and baked goods, and even ice cream deserts. There is a large menu board above the front counter. For dine-in ordering and payment is done via standard table service with your server. They also offer take-out ordering online through their site via skytab. Pay attention to their weekly/daily specials! We ordered the following: 2x Fountain drinks (Pepsi products) 1x 1/4 lb of beef burnt ends 1x 2 meat platter with pork ribs, pork burnt ends, cucumbers and onions, and mac n cheese. This was served with a small slice of cornbread 1x complimentary cinnamon roll Be aware the yellow and red squeeze bottles on the table are not ketchup and mustard. They're their two house BBQ sauces. One traditional (yellow) and one a little more spicy (red). I really liked both my sides! They were fantastic. The mac and cheese was hot and gooey. The cucumbers and onions were crisp and fresh. The meats all had good flavor. But maybe they were having a little bit of an off day...? The burnt ends dry were a drier than I prefer. The same with the cornbread and cinnamon roll. The ribs were better but still a little dry. Don't get me wrong... I cleaned my plate! I just used a little more BBQ sauce than I normally do. It's a personal preference and it really just might have been the day... That happens with BBQ. I would strongly encourage you to try it for yourself, but I want to be transparent in my experience. Our service was wonderful. The woman who seated and served us did a stellar job (Brenden's mom I think). One of the gentlemen working tables stopped by our table for a visit. Great kid with an even greater smile! Even with a bump or two. I'm already planning my next trip back to Triple B's to try their breakfast and their brisket cheesesteak... The cheesesteak is advertised as coming on a Amorosa roll. While smoked brisket is a spin to the classic... If you've ever been near Philadelphia you know Amorosa rolls are quintessential when it comes to cheesesteaks! Not something we see here in the Midwest on the reg. Be aware of their mission. Enjoy the food. Be patient, respectful, and most of all... Be kind! https://www.bubbyb.com/ https://www.facebook.com/TripleB.BubbyB/

As the receipt shows, I ordered tacos without lettuce. Quite clearly, I got tacos with lettuce. They remade these. As the receipt also shows, I already was using a coupon for the last time this location screwed up. The kid at the register (receipt says Trung) was rude and copped an attitude in both my interactions with him. The second time was when I went to get my food--he pretty much slammed my tray down on the counter. Sorry that I bothered you, Mr. Crabass. Perhaps a job sweeping the parking lot would be better suited for you. All in all, this location is a disaster. As I was leaving, a man came in looking harried--it appeared they screwed up his order. Do not stop in--you'll likely only get heartache vs heartburn.
