Suga Shack is small, it's a little dive thru area and but it's easy to find and navigate through. They take your order at one window and get it to you on the other side. It was staffed by one person last night but she was very friendly. I had a bubble waffle with strawberries, banana and hot fudge. My wife had the half baked cookie. It came out pretty quick, and everything looked good. It was $20 for the 2 desserts so it's not the cheapest option. Overall everything tasted pretty good, the strawberries were very fresh, good amount of banana as well. As mentioned by another review the waffle is cooked fresh so the ice cream does melt on it quickly it's not something that travels well. My wife liked hers as well, she said the cookie was a little meh but the ice cream and toppings were good. It was a good experience, I don't think we'll rush back but if we're looking for dessert in the future and want something unique we may drop back by.

Best Ice Cream I've ever had. This is a family owned ice…read morecream shop. They created their own recipes and make the ice cream themselves. These hand crafted ice creams are velvety and delicious. They have a wonderful array of flavors. But what I like most is that they are not overly sweet, don't get me wrong that are sweet enough. But some places have factory ice cream that is so sweet and full of additives that it doesn't taste good. Here you just get simple creamy deliciousness with simple ingredients. The staff is friendly and helpful in this lovely little shop. It was a beautiful day so I was able to sit outside to enjoy my treat. It was the most relaxing moment of my week. Slowly enjoying my ice cream in the balmy weather and listening to the birds.

Loved the vibe/interior as well as the variety of flavors to choose from. There were 2 young ladies that helped us out but the other one seemed like she didn't want us there. Tried their Southern Banana Pudding and The Classic Brownie with French Chocolate Ice Cream. - Southern Banana Pudding: it was good but it tastes like Trader Joe's Banana Pudding Ice Cream without the Nilla wafers. I was expecting some texture from the wafer but it wasn't there. - Classic Brownie with French Chocolate Ice Cream: loved the french chocolate ice cream. It was rich and creamy but the presentation was a little underwhelming though.

My cousin-in-law comes here every few weeks because "it's good for my soul," and I absolutely get it.

I had called a few other florists in town, but from the very first conversation, House of Flowers stood out. The owner, Amanda, immediately offered her sincere condolences and treated me with genuine kindness and compassion. That meant more than she probably knows. I shared with Amanda that my mother was a huge Los Angeles Dodgers fan, and without hesitation she suggested incorporating the Dodgers' team colors into the arrangements. That personal touch meant everything to our family. The flower arrangements were absolutely beautiful -- truly amazing. They were elegant, meaningful, and a perfect tribute to my mom. You could see the care and thought that went into every detail. Thank you, Amanda, for your exceptional customer service, your compassion, and for helping us honor my mother in such a special way.
