What a delightful treat!…read more The Bubble Hive specializes in sweet and savory waffle cones filled with everything from fried chicken to ice cream. I recently visited their first brick and mortar location off Arden way and it is very cute. They have indoor and outdoor seating complete with bulbed lights and umbrellas. They also have a variety of toppings. I ordered the sriracha ranch fried chicken egg puff waffle cone and it was delicious! The fried chicken was very crispy and flavorful and was complimented so well by their sriracha ranch sauce. And the waffle added a nice fluffy sweetness. The service was also above and beyond. I spilled my part of my first cone and they were so gracious about it and even refilled my cone to replace some of the chicken. Word to the wise: be very careful when you are receiving your cone to make sure the contents don't spill! I also got to meet the owner of the Bubble Hive and he was so friendly as well. I would definitely recommend checking out their brick and mortar location if you are looking to try something tasty and unique. Thank you Bubble Hive!

Got a street cone, expected it to be a fresh bubble waffle considering it was near $15 after tax…read more Cone came out in 40 seconds, my gf and I were surprised. Tried it, the bubble waffle was hard and dried as hell. Def at minimum premade in the morning and left out all day. Ice cream and toppings were good tho. A bit stingy on the Oreos but flavor was good. Just disappointing. The bubble waffle has a good taste, and would be amazing and 5 star if they actually made it fresh to order, considering I paid hella of a markup.

I liked the flavoring of the Lobster roll. I thought it was a fair portion size. And the Whoopie…read morepies-you can't tell from the pictures, but they are freaking JUMBO size However the prices changed from what's listed on here. I went to get a Lobster roll + whoopie pie (nothing else) and the total was $35! It IS delicious. Still thought it was worth it. It IS lobster, you can't expect it to be cheap like chicken or beef. Just be ware of that price hike. I know they have expenses to pay. I think this product is best in middle & upper class markets. Second thing is the worker wasn't proficient in English, so we went back and forth on Google Translate trying to understand each other for simple words like 'Cole slaw', 'on the side' & 'salad'. It was a frustrating experience plus a waste of company time! Time =$$! I would go back again when I am planning on spending that much. It IS the ONLY place I can find that sells Lobster rolls. Even Red Lobster only sells it during their Lobster fest. Just gotta have the Google Translate ready to go lol

Delicious, but too small: $25 for three bites. NOT Sam's!…read moreI'd gladly pay the additional $10 to get my money's worth. The owners reply is pure B. S. Maybe he hasn't tried the lobster roll at Sam's Cowder House in Half Moon Bay: at least a half a pound of lobster! C'mon, give me a decent sized sandwich that won't leave me hungry. I'll pay for it. It's hard to want to return to your food truck, pay $25, and then still be hungry.

So I first heard about Howard's Gumbo shop from reading reviews from a Yelp Elite event I was not a…read morepart of and it sounded pretty awesome I also started seeing a few food influencers went there and started talking about these "$5 Holla" bowls which are basically small bowls of gumbo-so I decided I had to find out once and for all what all the hype was all about. Funny thing when I looked up the address to this place,it's super close to my work and couldn't figure out how I missed them-When I finally pulled up I realized they were a pop up green tent covering a food truck type of restaurant.Thats how I missed em,when u look for them,look for the green tent and your golden. Parking is extremely limited as there are only 3 spots located on the property.i was not lucky enough to grab a spot so I had to park a few blocks away in let's just say not the safest part of town,I was generally nervous about my car the entire time I waited for my food. This place is not a sit down spot at all,much more of a takeout spot-there is a table or 2 but they aren't really there for dining,kinda just there as aesthetics. I ended up getting 2 "$5 Holla" bowls and an order of fried fish and fries-I apologize for not knowing if it was catfish or red snapper-I was a bit out of sorts when I was there because I was thinking of my car,so forgot to ask what type of fish it was. Ordering food here is similar to a food truck experience-walk inside the tent and walk up to the truck-place your order and wait for it to be called-exactly a food truck experience. Let's talk about the food. Fried Fish and Fries-Whichever fish it was between catfish or red snapper-it was amazing-it was deep fried crusted in cornmeal and was so tasty-the fish was flaky yet perfectly balanced with the cornmeal crust-I enjoyed it thoroughly.Fries were meh-pretty plain,not good not bad,just average. $5 Holla Bowl-This was a small bowl of their famous Howard's Gumbo.To say I think back on this meal multiple times a week when I'm working is a huge understatement.It was pure goodness and taste-the shrimp,the sausage,the rice and that broth-bang for bang this might be the best value of taste vs cost in the Sacramento-area-a true treasure of a food item. Howard's Gumbo shop is a really great food destination.They have high quality food and very inexpensive prices-the area isn't the best but the food quality for sure makes it worth the trouble,even if you can't find a parking spot.

I had high hopes after reading the positive reviews, but unfortunately, my experience was…read moredisappointing. The gumbo lacked the rich flavor I expected and tasted somewhat watered down, the catfish was overcooked and dry, and the fried okra seemed overly greasy rather than crisp and fresh. Overall, the food did not feel consistent with the reputation this place seems to have. Service was also a major issue. It was very slow, and I felt largely ignored for most of my visit. It was difficult to get anyone's attention, and the overall interaction felt unwelcoming. I normally try to give places the benefit of the doubt, but in this case, the experience left me feeling uncomfortable, and at times, I felt the treatment came across as a bit discriminatory. Considering the price and the reviews, I expected a much better experience. I hope improvements are made, but based on this visit, I would not return.
