My family visited here recently and were pleasantly surprised we had never seen it previously. It will be added to our places to stop in when visiting the area. Parking lot is big as it's in a bigger shopping lot. It has 6 or so bench style tables inside to eat at. Several coolers with canned and bottled drinks-a big selection. Racks of chip options right by the checkout. The service was good, they were quick to take our order and greet us upon entering. Checked in on any sandwiches that needed to be wrapped up to go (there weren't though as we all ate our huge sandwiches). Looking toward to going back & trying their potato salad. Thank you for the quality sandwiches!

Bare bones atmosphere with 6-7 tables. Took a while to get my pastrami sandwich even though I was the only person there; also the pastrami was decent but on the bland side. I'd definitely come back and try some of their other offerings. This place scores a 4 out of 5 on the 'CTJ Scale', as noted below. 5 out of 5 stars: Come-to-Jesus good. Would be OK passing away after finishing a plate here. 4 out of 5 stars: Come-to-Mary good. Would be OK having a nosh here with Mother Mary. 3 out of 5 stars: Come-to-Joseph good. Would be OK having a beer here with Jesus' Dad. 2 out of 5 stars: Come-to-the-Apostles good. Meh. Wouldn't have my last supper here. 1 out of 5 stars: Come-to-Nobody good.

Unfortunately, we didn't even get the chance to try the food…read more We came in as a party of 6 and were already feeling a little discouraged by the wait time, but what ultimately made us leave was how we were treated. Our interaction left us feeling unwelcome and discriminated against, and at that point we decided we would rather take our business somewhere else. It's disappointing because I was genuinely looking forward to trying Yellow Yeli and would have loved to give the food a fair chance. However, the experience we had before even being seated was enough for us to leave. Maybe the food is great, but personally, I wouldn't bother wasting my time trying again. There are too many other places where a party of 6 can feel welcomed and appreciated from the moment they walk in.

Get a big bowl of chili. Large dining area, clean, nicely decorated. Parking wasn't an issue for us.

This is a long overdue review for Water Shack. I stumbled upon this place a few years ago when I…read morewas craving a no frills mom & pop style burger. To my surprise Water Shack's burgers were delicious and satisfying that I find myself coming back here ever so often. Their burgers aren't the heavy, greasy/high fat patties you would get from other places. However, their 1/4 lb patties are their smallest patties and heft makes for that ideal bun to burger ratio. Did I need to order double patties on most of my burger orders? Probably not. Their patties are on the leaner side but they aren't dry; and the fixings from any burger you choose will satisfy that meaty burger fix you're looking for. The Chicken Patty Melt is also a very tasty item. Very cheesy, buttery and crispy toasted bread with chicken breast. Their fries and onion rings also come air-fried so this place focuses more on the healthier comfort food options that wont leave you feeling heavy and drowsy. This place is also doubled as a purified water dispensary and also serves baked goods and ice cream. Love this type of no-frills, unassuming place with very friendly staff and serves up some delicious food!

We ordered coffee and then started working on our laptops. From the get go we could tell the cashier woman was NOT a friendly person, it was like we were annoying her by being in her cafe. Our goal was to work there for the day and eat lunch there as well. There were hardly any other customers in the place the entire time we were there. At about 11:20 the cashier woman came to our table with our original receipt and showed us the time stamp on the receipt and said, "I told you you can only be here for about an hour, this is not the kind of cafe where you can sit and work all day." I said, "It's only 11:20, it's not even lunch time, we planned on ordering lunch here as well." She just walked away and said nothing. ​We should have left but we were in the middle of working. We did end up ordering food, 2 avocado toast dishes. They made one of them incorrectly and they tasted just OK. We certainly didn't tip her and we certainly will NOT be going back there EVER again.

The pesto was so incredibly fresh and flavorful that it honestly made me want to go vegan again. And I say that as someone who had been vegan for almost 3 years... until satan got in my head and I relapsed back into eating meat. But after eating here, I'm questioning all my life choices. The food is THAT good. Everything tasted fresh, thoughtfully made, and full of flavor. You can tell they actually care about what they're serving, and it makes such a difference. 10/10 would recommend. Come for the smoothies, stay for the vegan croissant, and leave questioning whether satan ever really had your best interests at heart. Ha!

Walked inside thinking I was just gonna grab a burger, and next thing I know I'm wandering around looking at all the meats, marinades, sauces, chips, drinks, and sandwiches like I was about to host a backyard BBQ for the whole neighborhood. This place is dangerous if you like to cook. I asked the guy behind the counter what I should order because I wasn't trying to make a bad decision. Without hesitation he said, Aged Burger and the Philly.....Say less. We grabbed those and ordered the fries extra crispy because that's the only way fries should be eaten. Man... everything was hella good. The burger was juicy, the Philly hit the spot, and those extra crispy fries disappeared way faster than I want to admit.... They've got plenty of outdoor seating too, so we just kicked back, ate, and enjoyed the vibe.
