    Chili cheese fries

    Man if you haven't been here your missing out best Philly cheesesteak all there food is bomb plus the guy has the best customer service love the whole environment ... this place is a must check out ..

    Philly Cheesesteak
    Ben H.

    This Philly cheesesteak is probably THE BEST sandwich I've ever had. Tbh tho I don't eat cheesesteak that often but this blows all other sandwiches out of the water and now I NEED to be having this regularly. Seriously, if you don't believe me just try it once and you'll understand. It's a friendly family owned donut shop so you know they put a lot of love into making this. And oh man after eating this sandwich, I think I'm addicted. The sandwich is stuffed with so much meat, so juicy, and seasoned amazingly. It's the perfect amount of flavor and savoriness that with each bite you'll be doing the happy dance. Honestly, if I had to provide some criticism, I wish there was more cheese to satisfy my gluttony.

    18.00 plus tax, the extra was a breakfast burrito I purchased for a homie

    The owner was extremely nice and guest already there were very pleasant and welcoming. Environment felt more like coming to my uncles house than a donut shop. After a couple of good laughs I gave the owner a list for 12 donuts as selected by my wife. He took the list and very happily boxed them up. In tied me to come back and have some regular food later, which I will certainly be trying soon. The donuts are delicious, very soft and wonderful presentation! I'll attack a picture. I really can't say anything negative about my experience. The dozen donuts were 18.00 plus tax, not horrible considering the price of food now a days. My wife loves her sprinkled donuts and my kid loves the maple bar. All in all a great experience that deserves 5 stars. Thank you for the wonderful morning.

    Philly cheesesteak and excellent customer service. The best of both worlds. Bought this today for lunch. This is definitely a hidden gem . It may look simple, and people are probably saying"it's missing things, or that's not a Philly " but LET me tell you, it's full of FLAVOR! Where have you been hiding all this time?! It's definitely a hole in a wall type of place but man does she keep it clean! She has more items in the menu, that I will try in the future. I ate only half because I got full. However, ate the rest for dinner cold, it was as amazing as it was when it was hot.

    Fantastic breakfast sandwich (Bacon, egg, and cheese on a very fresh, flaky croissant) prepared to order! Great glazed olds fashioned buttermilk donut! Even greater maple buttermilk bar. Excellent fresh ground coffee, Very friendly service. What more could you want?

    Almost forgot to snap the photo. Yum. Great service.  They were so nice and friendly.

I went back into the location and asked to exchange it for a milk, tea Boba and The cashier politely apologize for any inconvenience and prepared a replacement right away. Thai T were pretty good flavorful and the Boba texture is great. They have other food options and ice cream.

    One of the few boba spots in the area that actually gets it right…read more Ding Tea Rialto is our go-to boba spot and one of the few places in the area where the boba is consistently perfect--chewy, fresh, and never hard or mushy. The drinks are solid across the board, and I really appreciate that you can adjust the sweetness level, so it's easy to customize exactly how you like it. You can tell they use real tea and real ingredients, not just powders and cheap syrups like some other shops. The flavors taste clean and balanced, not artificial. They also have a good variety of toppings besides just boba, so if boba isn't your thing, you still have plenty of options. On top of drinks, they also serve food items, and I always get their bubble waffle with my boba--it's become part of the routine at this point. My family are regulars here, and for us, this is the boba shop that sets the standard in Rialto.

There is easy parking as it is in a plaza with other stores and restaurants. I ordered a regular sized Hokkaido Milk Tea with slight ice and egg pudding. I usually also order it less sweet, but forgot to this time. You can order at the self-serve kiosk or with a staff member. The drink came out quickly. As expected, it was too sweet, but that was my fault for not changing the sugar level. The flavor of the egg pudding was good but the texture was off. It was not as smooth and silky as others I have had. The flavor of the tea was solid. The price of the drink was surprising (~$8). Overall, giving Ding Tea Rialto a 4/5. Service is good and the tea is good. The space is small, but there are some tables to sit and hang out at. Would not be at the top of the list to return to, but would return in the future.

Very straightforward, but really well balanced. If you've never had chicory coffee before, it has a deeper, slightly earthy flavor that stands out from a standard cold brew without being overly bitter. It feels inspired by Louisiana/New Orleans-style coffee rather than the super sugary "dessert coffee" trend that a lot of places lean into right now. What I especially appreciate is the price point. At around $5.75, it feels reasonable for a specialty coffee drink that still tastes unique and intentional.

    Mother's Day started off great. I stopped by Nook Coffee Bar to surprise my wife with coffee and…read morebreakfast. The line was out the door, but I knew she'd love waking up to a nice cup of coffee, so the wait didn't bother me. I ordered coffee along with three ham and cheese croissants to go. When I got home, my wife was so happy. She ate part of her croissant but didn't finish it. My son did the same and only picked at the edges. I ended up finishing mine and the rest of my son's. About 8 hours later, after grilling dinner, both my wife and I suddenly became extremely sick. Severe stomach pain, nonstop trips to the restroom, and all the signs of food poisoning hit us hard. Our guest had just started eating dinner while my wife and I were both stuck dealing with the symptoms. The symptoms carried throughout the entire night and are still lingering. Both of us have been dealing with fevers, body aches, nausea, stomach cramps, and constant trips to the restroom. It completely ruined what started as such a special Mother's Day for our family. I normally don't leave reviews like this, but I felt it was important to share our experience. I truly hope this was an isolated incident, especially on a busy holiday, but I also hope food handling and quality control are looked into so no other families have to spend Mother's Day ending like ours did.
