The main attraction here is definitely the popcorn chicken, however the food feels a little overpriced for the portion size. It was flavorful, well seasoned, perfectly salty, and crispy. Even at medium spice, it had a nice kick. There were no weird pieces either. The only downside is some inconsistency in size since a few pieces could be smaller. The mozzarella sticks were also very good. I prefer them with ketchup instead of marinara. They are your typical mozzarella sticks and taste good, but the popcorn chicken is what really stands out.

It's in a little shopping plaza with other small businesses. There is plenty of parking. It is brightly lit on the inside and you immediately see the counter with the ice cream bar and some tables. It feels homey and welcoming. There is some nice floral decor. I was immediately greeted when I arrived. I took a look at the menu that is on the counter. Menus are also posted on the window. They have some Hispanic flavors like cajeta and Mexican hot chocolate. I decided to order the Mar and Tierra sushi to go along with an horchata iced latte. Total came out to $25 with some change. I asked the lady how long and she said 15-20. I said that was fine and I took a seat. There was no one inside early in the day (around 1pm). Some customers did come in shortly after I did. My iced latte was done first and it was good. I did taste the horchata and cinnamon. My sushi was ready beforehand. The sushi cake with a bell pepper and soy sauce and other sauce. It was 12 piece roll which was surprised about, it's definitely enough for 2. The sushi is breaded and comes with carne asada, shrimp, avocado, and cream cheese. It was laid out nicely in the box. Delicious and filling. You can also order online. I really enjoyed it! Will definitely come back!

You could also quickly choose a pre-selected message, or write one of your own, including the ability to choose the color of your custom message.

So much so that we're planning on ordered another cake for an upcoming birthday. Since you pay for the cake in advance, in-store pickup took under a minute. Be sure to order more than 2 days in advance as I believe that's the cutoff for not paying the additional $10 rush fee. Thank you to the cast and crew at this Baskin-Robbins.

Hello, I visited…read moreyour store around 9:15PM and was disappointed to see that about half of the ice cream flavors had already been put away and the equipment had been cleaned, even though the store does not close until 10:00 PM. If the posted closing time is 10:00 PM, customers should be able to purchase from the full selection of ice cream until that time. Cleaning up and putting products away 30 minutes before closing limits customers' choices and creates a poor experience. I hope you will review this practice so that customers can enjoy the full menu during your posted business hours. Thank you.

With so many flavors and combos, you're almost guaranteed to find something you'll like no matter what you're into. I got a regular size because I wanted two different flavors.

Don't get discouraged by lines, they move fairly quick and trust me, it's def worth the wait! 10000/10 Plenty of parking and a decent amount of seating.

The inside of the store is dirty and the owners are very rude. I've had a friend that worked there and they literally only let women work day shifts and at least 1 male has to work closing so they can do most of the cleaning and heavy duty work. The owners themselves are just typical money driven owners that don't care about customer satisfaction or equal employment, as long as somehow they generate revenue. As a person who had a friend work there the owners just stare at you through their cameras and call the place just to complain about anything to their employees, how crazy is that, they LITERALLY sit there and watch their employees all day on their computers and complain about random stuff because they cannot be bothered to properly learn how to run a business. Seriously, it's weird. Also it constantly smells like chemicals and damp water in there, why anyone would want to go their is beyond me. read more

Ok so first impression is that everything looked really run down and dirty. There were only like 5-6 yogurt selections with one of the "featured flavors" being out-of-service.

Ever since I tried Dubai Chocolate in St Paul, MN at a Turkish bakery over a year ago, I've been…read morewanting to try it again. Whenever I see it at candy shops, I ask how much. It usually runs from $20 to $25 per bar. At Mixie's in The Food Lab, there was a Dubai chocolate bar displayed for $20. What made me decide to try it was that it was DARK chocolate. I bought it at the end of my time at the Food lab because I was worried it would melt on my way home because of the 99 degree weather. The young man who helped me was polite and rang it up quickly. I didn't try it until hours later. I think because it had been refrigerated at the shop and then was in my bag for several hours, it was slightly melted when I tried it but not bad. It was not as striking in texture or flavor as when I had some from the bakery in St Paul but maybe that's the difference between packaged and fresh? Very rich! I ate two squares only and saved the rest. I give Mixie's 5/5 and the Dubai chocolate 4/5.
