    Dar's Double Scoop lives up to its name and reputation for having good ice cream. If you order a small waffle cone, you'll get a double scoop. If that's not enough, then get a medium or large for a few quarters more. But it truly is a double scoop (even for the smallest size cone) and it's in the name. They have roughly 12-20 flavors of ice cream on hand at any given time. Black licorice, peanut butter chocolate, French silk and rainbow sherbet are a few of the current delicious examples. Prices are affordable and the staff are wonderful. It's a great place to ruin your diet in a fun and tasty way!

    Dar's Double Scoop is probably one of the best ice cream shops in my opinion. The price, quality, quantity, and the fact it's locally owned. All the things that makes it a wonderful ice cream shop! Lil yang and I went here yesterday to celebrate her birthday. Lil yang got a small sugar cone with cake and ice cream(flavor), and almond joy(flavor). I got a small cake cone with Zanzibar Chocolate. Our total was $5.50. The amount of ice cream we got was a lot! I was so full after my ice cream, I had to consider that my dinner. Probably not the smartest idea, but hey, it was Lil yang's birthday treat. I haven't tried their food there, but I was recently looking at their menu, and I enjoy a good brat or polish sausage. So I know I will have to try them soon and I will let yelp know. Overall I definitely would recommend this place to anyone. There aren't a huge variety like grand ole creamery, but what they do have is a great selection, and the price is amazing! Support this local shop, you won't regret it!

    A nice price for the wallet. I stopped by for some ice cream and the staff was so nice and friendly. He walked me through the process, explaining the different sizes and cones. He even gave me samples. They have a good selection of flavors. They even offer pizza! What more can you ask for?

    Anyway, for $2 and some change I got a "small" cake cone of Root Beer ice cream topped with a scoop of Rum Cherry; it was fabulous.

    Great location for people visiting Park Square Theatre…read more They don't do half and half of their specialty pizzas so you just have to build your own from scratch. Another way to charge more. We split a pizza and that was fine. It was good pizza with generous toppings. Service was good too. For dessert we went around the corner to Candyland.

    Cool place! Tales of their pizza from their previous ventures have lingered for years, but I've…read morenever tried their food until they opened this full bar & restaurant on West Seventh Place. The location is convenient for people attending downtown events, although when events like that are going on and you just want to park somewhere and try their food, that parking can be challenging. Detroit-style pizza is unique. It comes in thick rectangular slabs, and the crust is unusually airy. They have interesting concoctions to try, incorporating different types of peppers as well as whipped honey and pineapple relish. For my first visit, I got a cacio e pepe pizza, which had actual noodles on it that were surprisingly cool. The second time I came, I had a single slice with pepperoni & sausage, and I can confirm that I really like their pizza. When it comes to pizza, my preference is normally for either Neopolitan or New York style, but these squares are tasty and satisfying to eat. I also got "Pizza Rowls", which I loved. With that entree, you get three long things that look like big egg rolls but are stuffed with tons of creamy cheese, sauce, and meat. It also comes with an arugula salad. It all tasted great. They have very friendly service, although I was forced to sit at the bar this last time because of the crowds. I don't like bar seating and in hindsight it seemed like I would have had a table if I'd just waited a few minutes instead of the half-hour I was told to expect. They're new at the moment so they might still be figuring out their flow; they have plenty of tables so you'll probably generally not have an issue there. They have a special Sunday brunch menu that is intriguing as well. You should totally try them out!

    We have driven by here several times and always said that one of these days we will try it. Friday…read morewas finally that day. It smells amazing when you first walk in. They make a wonderful butter crust deep dish pizza that is smothered in toppings. We decided to go simple - with pepperoni. The amount of pepperoni they put on this pizza was amazing! Let me back up though, we started with an order of cheesy garlic bread donuts. What could be wrong with that combination? They arrived and were the size of golf balls. So garlicky, so cheesy, so yummy! I will admit, it was a rather long wait for the pizza and I was starting to feel a little hangry but when it arrived, it was worth every minute of the wait. So delicious and filling . One piece was all any of us could eat. Was just as wonderful the second day. The inside of this place is charming. An old Mario video game kept our 7 year old entertained. The music was a little loud and hard to hear over but this is clearly a place that neighbors know and love. We will certainly be back to try other items....or maybe stick with what we already know and love. The best part? You are right around the corner from Nellie's and everyone knows that ice cream fills in all the cracks after a good meal! If you are looking for a great neighborhood experience, I highly recommend Mario's!

    This had been on our bucket list for a while and we were extremely excited to try it! We got the…read morepepperoni pizza, which was perfect for the two of us (we had some leftovers). Flavor and texture wise it's a really solid pizza, I would definitely recommend it. It was so filling and cheesy. We also tried the red and white wine. They have outdoor and indoor seating, which is a big plus in the summer. Some of the reasons: why I am not giving it a 5/5. It's because we waited a close to 50 minutes for the pizza. And the pizza is definitely more on the pricey side, which I am okay with, but I think waiting that long for one is too much.
