We selected the hazelnut, raspberry cheesecake, pistachio & amaretto cherry. I had hoped for the mascarpone fig which the man behind us said, is "fire" but it must be their top seller cuz they were out at the moment. It was a rough decision as they were all super creamy & delicious. We each got a small cup of the hazelnut & raspberry cheesecake & they did not disappoint. The establishment is eclectic & if you walk beyond the gelato counter, there is even a cocktail bar in the back part. We will make this a must when we return! So fun

The bartenders and servers know all the locals which is evident every time me and my coworkers stop in here for happy hours or for dinner. They still give us the attention we need for drink refills and food orders. For drinks, it's mainly beer although they have hard liquor available here. I always stick with Miller Lite since it's cheap and they bring it out quick. As for food, it's mainly burgers and bar eats. The appetizers such as the wings, chips n queso, fried jalapenos, and pretzel bites w/ beer cheese are our favorites. Meanwhile, they do good burgers here which are a favorite amongst the team. Each day will have food specials such as half priced appetizers and $1 wings. Check the menu out for the full details. It's a great place to watch sports and grab drinks/eats or catch live music if it's available. This is part of our rotation whenever we're in Lufkin.
