    Coconut cream pie.
    Tranissa B.

    The service and food was outstanding! We were driving by and they were the only restaurant open after the snow storm so we decided to try it. They did not disappoint. I ordered the Caesar salad, southwestern shrimp soup of the day, and fries. Hubs had the fried pork chop special w/ premium salad and loaded mashed potatoes. Everything was so delicious the portions were great the staff was knowledgeable and super friendly and attentive. Do yourself a favor and don't leave with out the coconut cream pie and peach cobbler it's better than Grandmas.

    Not a medium steak.

    the food is always good .however the ladies who work there, they are always weird and seem bitchy…read more..like they act weird today I went with my mom to get our orders ..a guy took our Order and the girl came ..which is fine I figured he was in training never seen him before. Anyways it was great then she comes to place the order at the table she knew I was walking towards her was going to say thank you and she just drops it at the table and left ..which that caught me off guard but it's whatever nothing hateful towards them it's just that I hoped and wished that the girls would treat the same to their women customers just likewise to the guy customers. I came here a few times and the ladies are the same way really weird towards the ladies but with men they wait until they turn around and tell them that they are thankful like I saw today a female worker towards a male customer. I mean each to their own, however again I wished that the female workers would give the same equal attention & be more attentive and polite with their female customers, because with the guys they don't have to think twice. ps: they don't do anything for you to hate on them ( no caen mal ) by the way to the girl who served my tostilocos, i wished that she would of put more sause !! like past times I came

It was no problem! They took my order and the cake was ready to pick up by 10am. The cake was not only delicious, it also was beautiful with plenty of fruit on top. I picked it up on time and remembered to get some of their cinnamon/sugar doughnuts for breakfast.

    I ordered a full-size tres leches cake with the expectation of getting what they sell by the slice…read more When people started eating the cake everyone immediately asked what happened to getting a tres leches cake because that's what everyone was expecting, especially my son because tres leches was his choice of cake for his birthday. I took a bite myself and realized the taste & texture was that of a regular cake. It was most definitely NOT a tres leches cake. I took the cake back to let them know I did not receive a tres leches cake. The employees were adamant that it was. They said it just wasn't moist because I didn't ask for it. Sorry, but a tres leches cake is a tres leches cake & anytime I've ordered one from different places I received what I asked for. I let them know I did not know I was supposed to let them know I wanted a moist tres leches cake and the person who took my order didn't mention at the time my order was placed. You'd think that would be something they'd let their customers know. They said they can't make the big cakes like their individual slices they sell because the milk from the cake would run out of the container. They did not offer a refund or to fix it. I know it's because they feel they sold me the correct thing and they did nothing wrong. I left the cake there and left. It sucked paying $40 for a cake and having a certain expectation just to be let down. I went to them because they are a small business, close to home, and because I've had their individual slices of tres leches cake and it was good.

    Just moved to LJ and my grandson was asking for "frozen yogurt at a place you can put candy on it."…read more Cherry-berry was just what he wanted! He had cotton candy and pomegranate with lots of toppings of course. I had the banana which was really good. The place is cute and clean.

(I always struggle to find places that offer sugar free alternatives.) CherryBerry was starting to get busy when we arrived. However, it still looked clean and very well maintained which made me feel good about getting frozen yogurt from there. The woman behind the cash register was really nice and helpful and let me know which flavors had no sugar added. They were out of the vanilla, but they had the cheesecake flavor which was so good! I didn't even think the price was too high either. The toppings bar was good, but I do wish if included more fresh fruit instead of mostly just candy and other sugary toppings. It would have been nice especially to see some sliced bananas there. The woman at the cash register was helpful again when checking out and explained everything to us. She was so nice! CherryBerry in Lake Jackson is now my favorite froyo spot. I just wish I lived a little closer.
