    We had lunch recently at Surf Dogs, located just off Centerville Turnpike in the heart of Great Bridge. This is a fantastic place to enjoy a delicious hot dog OR a banana split if you're in the mood for one. They have a wide variety of items on their menu for just about every taste imaginable. The staff is friendly and helpful with menu questions and suggestions. We had a great time here and we are looking forward to our next visit!

    Bacon Cheeseburger & Small Fries

    I had the pleasure of meeting my mother and brother up here for lunch on Wednesday afternoon the day before Thanksgiving. I think it was about 1:45pm when we arrived. There were still some folks in there eating lunch, however we had no problem grabbing a table right away. Our service was immediate and one of several young ladies who visited the table stopped by and took our drink orders. She came back a few minutes later with our drinks and then took our lunch order. I had a bacon cheeseburger and small fry (of course I did). Mom had a BBQ sandwich and small fry and my brother had the Just Chill'in burger which is a cheeseburger with chili on it, and he also had chili cheese fries. We added a order of onion rings as an app. It took I'd say about 15 minutes for our orders as there was a big order in front of ours. The meals came out to perfection. My burger was slightly pink in the middle and tasted great. I heard no complaints from anyone. Our server and another one kept checking on us regularly and topping off our drinks. We were offered desert however we all declined. I had to get back to work and they had more shopping to do. All in all is the meal I've come to expect from Surf Dogs and I'm looking forward to my next visit sometime soon.

    The reply from the manager was uncall for. The size wasn't enough for the price Staff shortage ok. But the best part I never have to go there again. Located several place that serve this flavor. So thanks

    Currently sitting at Surf Dogs listening to a skipping juke box for the last 43 minutes that no one on the staff seems to notice. Not really sure why people eat here or why I have eaten here on multiple occasions. This is the slowest restaurant I have ever been too and it always has been. Sat down at 6pm it's 6:43pm and we have no food and I am not really sure if we are going to get food at all. DON'T come here! It's super ordinary food for a now 46 minute and counting wait.

    We really enjoy Surf Dogs restaurant. The employees are so sweet, helpful & kind. From the first time & each time after this we think that the prices are reasonable! It is so amazing to try the new ice cream flavors and find another fave. The ice cream is always so delicious and the vibe in atmosphere is so much fun!!

    Not what I had expected. Onion rings we're obviously cooked in old oil. Hot dog (Nathan's All Beef) was good. Wife unit was satisfied with her Cheeseburger - although they forgot the onion. About a dozen customers - and the staff was overwhelmed. I could tell they were struggling to maintain a pleasant disposition. I heard then say "I'm sorry" a lot to customers. They need some training to help them with some efficiencies - for their sake. Oh, they were out of straws. :-( I may be back if I'm in the area and want some ice cream.

    Hahaha can't bam someone who will not be back... makes two of us since I will probably also be banned

    Great ice cream. EXTREMELY SLOW service. I'm talking over an hour for 2 hotdogs.... Also we were sitting at the food bar and drinks were empty for 30 minute... AT THE BAR. My kid kept asking if they forgot us.... Will not be coming back for food ever. At this very moment, we've been here for over an hour and still don't have food. Update... waited 15 more minutes and left without food. After reading other reviews, found this gem between another reviewer with the same experience and the owner... see picture and enjoy.... Can't ban someone who couldn't be paid to come back hahahaha. Also just not willing to support an owner who will blame the customer for a bad experience... maybe apologize then thank the customer for their review and letting you know that there is an issue... then offer the customer an opportunity to come back when the issue has been addressed.

Ice cream can get incredibly rich for me very fast, but that wasn't my experience with their rainbow cookie ice cream! Very smooth, almost reminiscent to birthday cake, with just the right touch of sweetness. There are plenty of seating indoors, and lots of spots to park your car outside! The staff are friendly and they keep the place extremely spotless, cleaning surfaces and even wiping down the glass doors and windows through the night. They also have a water dispenser in the event that you need a sip of water and it's great for people like myself who need water after a sweet! The place is very quiet around the evening (we were there around 8:40pm) and there's hardly a line, if at all. But the place stays open til 10pm throughout the week. The place deserves more traction. I will definitely be coming back here with my husband who is an ice cream fiend!

    Stopped in here on a freezing cold day (like... 19 degrees outside), and honestly? Ice cream in 19…read moredegree weather? Why not. Zero regrets. First off, the staff were super friendly and welcoming right when we walked in. They were more than happy to let us sample a few flavors, which I always appreciate, especially when there are so many options and everything sounds good. The flavor selection is seriously impressive, and it makes choosing just one feel impossible. They don't just do basic scoops either. You can get milkshakes, malts, ready-to-go pints, ice cream sandwiches, ice cream pies, or keep it classic with a cup or cone. Basically, whatever ice-cream mood you're in, they've got something for you. I ended up going with the cookie dough ice cream sandwich, and it absolutely hit the spot. The ice cream was super creamy and packed with cookie dough, and the cookies themselves were soft, chewy, and the perfect match for the filling. It was rich without being too much, which is saying something for an ice cream sandwich. The whole place just had a really easy, fun vibe. Nothing pretentious, just good ice cream, lots of choices, and nice people! If you're in the area and craving something sweet, give them a try. Whether it's the middle of summer or literally below freezing outside, it's worth stopping in.

    I don't usually leave one-star reviews, but this experience was bad from start to finish…read more I placed a mobile order and waited at the clearly marked pickup window on the left side of the building, where there's a giant sign that says "Pick Up Mobile Orders Here." It was raining, and I stood there for about 10 minutes. I was literally the only customer there at the time. Anna was inside near the front window and looked directly at me multiple times, but never once came over to acknowledge me or ask if I needed help. Instead, she went back to writing something down. After waiting in the rain, I finally walked around to the front window. The second I got there, Anna opened it and asked if I needed help. I asked why she never came to the mobile pickup window where I'd been waiting, and her response was that it was "too much of a pain to open." That's honestly not an acceptable excuse, especially when a customer has already been standing there in the rain waiting for an order that was ready. Unfortunately, the customer service wasn't the only issue. The ice cream itself was terrible. It tasted sour, was watery, and honestly just nasty. I threw it away after a couple of bites because I couldn't finish it. The location itself also isn't very inviting. There's nowhere to sit or enjoy your ice cream--it's basically just surrounded by parking lots with no real atmosphere. I'm very disappointed because I've been to other Bruster's locations and have always been treated like an actual human being. This location was the complete opposite. Between the poor customer service and the bad quality of the ice cream, I won't ever be returning to this location.

    Sundae Scoop is really amazing! I'm not an ice cream lover. But I love Sundae Scoop…read more Leaving a doctor appointment in Chesapeake early this week I was excited that I would pass Sundae Scoop on the way home. I pulled into the shopping center & found a locked door at the shop. Peeping into the window I saw that it was definitely closed. Disappointed I turned to leave. A man wheeling in what must have been today's prepared ice creams asked me if I wanted ice cream. When I answered in the affirmative he unlocked the door & turned on the lights. I learned that during the winter they don't open till 3. Asking if he was the owner, he confirmed that he & his wife were. Going to the back while I got my two pints of Ube Ice Cream from the cooler, he returned with three complementary containers of flavors that I hadn't tried. Sharing with him the fact that I wasn't an Ice Cream person but loved his, he asked if it was the Ube. I told him that flavor was my favorite but it was because his tasted different & so much better than other Ice Cream. Mentioning that other Ice Cream was just too sweet. He confirmed that was the biggest mistake people made preparing Ice Cream. He certainly knows the best way to prepare the deliciousness. Somehow we also even got on the topic of NFL Football. Don't I always? It's wonderful to learn that one of my favorite spots is owned by such a friendly & nice person. He didn't have to unlock the door so I could buy Ice Cream. But he did. So I left the store with a bag full of my favorite treat. If you haven't yet tried Sundae Scoop you've missed the best Ice Cream in Coastal Virginia. Even if it's not in your part of the Metro, make a trip there. You won't regret it.

Parking isn't an issue and the store is located amongst in a strip of stores. This establishment was relatively clean and offered several flavors. My wife and I had their no sugar added cheesecake frozen yogurt. They also offer a wide variety of dry ingredient toppings. The only negative I can relay isn't strictly against this location specifically. It's a bit expensive. So just keep in mind that prices are based on weight.. so loading up your dessert may cost you. Otherwise, it's a very refreshing dessert location.
