So good, perfectly spiced and not overly sweet. I had the veggie omelet and loved it. The veggies were roasted and packed with flavor, not just tossed in like at most places. The staff really know their menu and walked us through the fall specials, which was great. You can tell they care about what they're serving. Overall: great food, great service, and easy parking. Can't wait to come back!

I thought it was a cute place with the white and navy blue colors. You can sit outside or inside. We decided to eat inside. There was about 9 nine people that ordered and was waiting for their food. I know this because while I was trying to order my food, every 2 minutes the other customers would go up and ask about their food. I seen the disgruntled look on these people faces. I would say when it came to anything that dealt with ice cream, it was ready in minutes. But when it came to food such as burgers, fish,fries, it took about 30 mins. My take on this is this establishment needs to keep up with the demands of what they offer. I would suggest limiting the items to choices that are a quick turnaround. They thrive in making the ice cream products fast while the fast food items take 10mins or more. I did not order the Funnel cake due to the worry of waiting for 10mins or more for it. I did not have any issues because I ordered a banana split, Concrete ice cream w/strawberries and Monster cookie on a cone. My selections were ok. I think it satisfied my sweet tooth, but I think the consistency of the ice cream can be improved. If Ted Drew's and Costco is in your rotation, then there's no need to explore elsewhere.

I consistently get their fish platter and it is consistently good! The batter the cod pieces are breaded in is seasoned well and adds the best flavor.

Their prices are fair in regards to quality and quantity!
