Enjoyed a really nice dinner here last night with a beyond incredible staff that went above and…read morebeyond to check in on us frequently (server and owner or manager- not sure which) and make sure we had everything we needed and were very happy. I was blown away by how attentive and friendly they were despite being super busy. For the environment, the place felt a bit loud and crowded - which for one was a testament to how well liked it appeared to be (we are visiting from out of state) and how they had to make very creative use of the space as they must cater to so many in a smaller space. It was also clean and quite nostalgic with lots of interesting old time memorabilia - and didn't try to go too cheesy and over the top with the theme though again was a bit too busy and crowded and could have maybe used a more highlighted 'less is more' approach to showcase the ice cream shoppe feel, the old time candy shop ambience, etc. I also loved that there were no tvs to distract from the ppl in front of us, and though time period music would be fun, it might have made it even too much louder. I appreciated very much that they seemed to want ppl to talk and enjoy the company in front of them. The fried pickles app was really good, and the dreamsicle style shake and curly fries - sooo delicious! The ice cream concoctions we didn't try, but saw delivered all around us were huge and fun and looked so good! The BLT was a bit dry and could have used a good mayo or sauce, and my sister's Hawaiian chicken didn't have the Hawaiian bun but it was unique and still not bad. Though with the soda shoppe name I had hoped for more unique or home made soda concoctions or offerings. Overall though- the food was mostly really really good; it seemed cute and beloved and very popular with the town; and there was a clear pride in the place - and very apparent love and appreciation of the customers by the staff which was number one in what I saw and was very impressed by. They just need and deserve a bigger space!

We came here after my son's game because my husband wanted to go to a mom and pop shop to eat…read more Since we were in the area I remembered seeing a TikTok for a Hawaiian / Polynesian bbq place. We wanted to try something new so we went ahead and went for it. We pulled up and parking might be confusing for some, if you pull up behind the car wash just circle around to take a parking spot, if you pull in front of the car wash you'll have access to the drive thru and the parking spots on the right. Easy to maneuver around but very limited spots in general. Ordering was easy, they let us order at the drive thru since there were a few people ahead of us at the normal area. They have menus posted in 3 different areas, the 2 main ordering areas and then at the corner of the seating area. They also had a Katsu special posted on the window that wasn't on the regular menu. We really wanted to try some of the sweet and spicy bbq sauce, but they had ran out so we got the normal bbq sauce and Polynesian. I really enjoyed the original bbq sauce it reminded me of a thicker soy sauce with a hint of sweetness. The kaylenes Polynesian sauce was very sweet and something my husband really enjoyed. The chicken was cooked to perfection, it wasn't dry and was very moist. The short ribs were a little more on the dry side but good overall. The pork was one of my favorites. It was flavorful, moist and overall just some of the best pork I've had. Polynesian meatballs were just regular meatballs covered in the Polynesian sauce. My daughter ate almost all of them (she's only 2!). But they were pretty moist and reminded me of the meatballs you get at baby showers. Spam musubi was good overall, can't go wrong with it. My son really likes these. Mac salad was good, was macoroni pasta and carrots in their island style way. My husband really enjoyed the veggies, said it would be really good with a pupusa. Hahaha. White rice was cooked good. Our only complaint was overall it lacked just a bit of salt. But the sauces made up for it. Service 10/10. Food 9/10. Location 7/10. Price 5/5 You may have to wait a little on your food but it is very well worth it. Would definitely come back and need to get here earlier so we can try the sweet and spicy sauce!

The menu is kinda big for such a small place. Today's special was meatloaf and I was going to get something else but I do love a meatloaf sandwich so that's what I went with. The meatloaf tasted good but there was just not enough of it on the sandwich. Hubby had the catfish plate with fries (they were unseasoned and a small amount), cole slaw and hush puppies. He said it was OK. Not above ordinary. We ended with a slice of chocolate chess pie which we all shared. It was very good. I believe they make the pies and cakes in house. We would maybe try the food one more time. The service was fine.

I went for lunch and ordered the Wednesday special, which in June 2026 is a smash burger with fries for $10. The burger is normally $10 by itself with the fries $5. The fries were a little too salty but OK. The burger was smashed and tasted good with American cheese, grilled onions, pickles and some kind of sauce. A plus is they have craft beer. I may have to try some other items in the future.

The staff was friendly and kind, and helped us get some pictures. The food, chicken and waffles, seemed like the perfect meal for my midwestern mother, the waffles were good but the chicken way over cooked, it was dark, dark brown, dry and difficult to chew. Three of us had the Burratta Bowls. The flavors were fabulous, the tater tots crispy and onions and peppers were sauté nicely. For a breakfast bowl I would have like more eggs in this dish, it felt like one egg on a bowl full of tater tots. My sister loved the yogurt and fruit bowl and my cousin devoured the eggs in hollandaise sauce. I loved my chai tea! And everyone else said the coffee was great. I would recommend this restaurant for brunch, we had pancake loving people in our group and they weren't serving pancakes the day we were there, so we would return to get pancakes and enjoy the atmosphere.
