    Chocolate vanilla swirl cone

    My fiancé and I absolutely love this little ice cream spot. We drive a decent way to get over here and we'll never miss them for a sweet treat when they're open. The people who work here are very efficient, I've never had an issue. The portions are perfect, exactly what you ask for & it tastes amazing every time. So glad we found it. There are benches to sit on, you don't ever go inside but it's right by the shopping area so there's a lot to do while you have your scoop.

    We used to come here when I was growing up in the 1980s. Took my kids here, so glad they are still around and the soft serve is as good as I remember it. Lots of flavors and reasonable prices.

    Yummy! Been meaning to go here all summer! I got the banana ice cream dipped in chocolate and my fiancé got tuitti fruiti! Delightful treat on a summer day.

    Dairy mat has been around for agesssss! They have a big menu .. I feel like anything you could think of they will do.. they even have take home pints. I like the fact that they have soft serve orange creamsicle.. so.. it would be nice if they took credit or debit!

    5.50 for two half full small yogurts plus snotty attitude from some high school girl. Makes me homesick for some Doozies in Mt. Pleasant.

The atmosphere was very nice. I held the door for a group of lady customers as I was entering and they were exiting. I heard them say, "I love this place." A group of young people that came in behind me shortly after were speaking amongst themselves while we were waiting to be served. They were also taking about how much they love this place and how they were here at the Grand Opening or first day open. I knew I had made a good choice. Kenny and Olivia were the servers and they did an excellent job taking care of the guests. The place was busier than I imagined a frozen dessert style restaurant would be on a late Sunday evening. Regardless everyone was served swiftly but with attention to detail. We had a group of seven and at least three groups of 5 or more came in behind us. I didn't see one customer that was dissatisfied whatsoever. There are so many flavors in the showcase. I wanted to try them all!!! I understand that they rotate the flavors too so perhaps next time will be a totally different experience. I can't wait to come back and try some more. They do allow you to sample multiple flavors. I tried 3-4 before just placing my order. I don't think that it's possible to pick a bad flavor. I ordered the largest size so that I could get three flavors. All three were splendid. I'm already excited for my next visit.

The gentleman working was one of the friendliest people I have ever encountered. He took real pride in their product, and his good energy was contagious. In addition to gelato, they offer sorbets, coffee drinks, and a small selection of South American style dessert items. Street parking only. Pay those meters - they ticket in Birmingham.

    We went to 220 Merrill for the first time for a wedding rehearsal dinner. We were in the back of…read morethe restaurant where they had high top standing tables for cocktails, and long banquet style tables for dinner. Multiple servers came around to take drink orders. I inquired about a drink another guest had, and the server said it was a mocktail that had white peach, strawberry, and coconut. I was disappointed because I have a coconut allergy, but the server immediately offered to bring me one without coconut. Appetizers were set on the banquet tables, and we could help ourselves. The shrimp were MASSIVE and they also had raw oysters served with them. They offered multiple sauces on the side for them. They also had dishes with cured meats, cubed cheese, and grape on the table. The dinner was served buffet style. All of the food was hot in the serving dishes. I was able to sample each of the offerings: Mediterranean crunch salad, sweet and spicy calamari, roasted vegetables, roasted potatoes, vodka rigatoni, Alfredo rigatoni, grilled chicken, salmon, and filet mignon. I am not personally a big fan of pasta or red sauce, but the spicy vodka rigatoni was AMAZING. the Alfredo rigatoni and roasted potatoes were also great. I do think that the roasted vegetables would have benefited from some seasonings, and the salmon could have used a sauce or additional seasonings. The grilled chicken was personallyt favorite protein. The filet mignon did have some pink in the middle, but it was still a bit on the dry side. During dessert they brought out trays of mini desserts to each table. At this time the server who had taken my drink order hours early came to my table and brought me a giant portion of mango sorbet. He told me that he didn't know if I could eat any of the desserts, so he verified that the mango sorbet did not have any coconut in it and brought some for me. It was so nice!!! He remembered a comment I had made hours earlier, and unprompted brought my own allergy free dessert. I wish I had gotten his name! It really made my night. I will definitely be back in the future! The lighting was intimate , the service was spectacular, and the spicy rigatoni was great.

I ordered the 220 burger that came with fries. Price was about $20 which I was totally fine with. The food was very good. Lots of flavor on the burger. The various toppings worked quite well. My one knock would be the bun; it wasn't toasted so the burger lacked some structural integrity. That and the onion jam which seemed more like cooked onions than an actual jam. Overall, an A rating for a burger (2nd best tier). The fries were plentiful and had nice crisp. A little more salt could have boosted them even higher, but I was pleased with them. Overall, really solid burger and fries.

My favorite go to is the iced rose cardamom latte and their breakfast brioche sandwich. Just recently tried their cookies as well and it's unreal.

Will was phenomenal and truly made the experience. He was incredibly helpful while assisting with our order and his energy elevated the whole visit. He also shared that everything is made in house, which made the experience feel even more special. We ordered the Chicken Masala Sandwich, an Affogato, and a chocolate chip cookie. The Chicken Masala sandwich was absolutely delicious. The flavor profile tasted clean, fresh, and thoughtfully crafted. For the Affogato, we sampled several ice cream flavors before landing on vanilla, cookie butter, and dark chocolate. The cookie butter was the standout and absolutely phenomenal, but honestly any of the options would have been a great choice. The chocolate chip cookie was also incredible. I warmed it up in the oven after getting home and it completely took it to another level. If I had one recommendation, it would be offering warmed cookies in house because that made it next level. Overall, a great experience with standout food and exceptional service. Will alone made us want to come back.
