Regardless, the service is pretty snappy and the staff is pleasant. The menu is gigantic and offers an assortment of sundaes, tornadoes, shakes, and more. Additionally, they do offer some hot food as well. I do wish the menu was a bit easier to read, as it can be tricky at night or at a distance. My go-to item is the strawberry and vanilla swirl cone. I also really enjoy the turtle sundae. However, I don't think you could go wrong with anything on the menu!

Setting expectations: Ever have a favorite shirt that you never want to throw out because you just love how comfortable it is? Worn and maybe a bit frayed but just feels good? That was this restaurant. There is evidence of a morning rush all around me but we had a clean booth to sit at in this small place. It had decent enough coffee, it is not a latte place. I had the Western omelette with broccoli added. I forgot to say no American cheese but it was still good and most importantly to me not drowning in cheese. It came with American potatoes (similar to hash browns but in bigger chunks) that were amazing. Brown and crisp and somehow not overly greasy. My husband's fries are of the crinkle type and they were crispy and so yummy. My husband had the Patty melt which he also liked. Know this is a privately owned, old, worn restaurant but there is something so relaxing and comfortable about this place. Normally restaurants these days seem so stressful, people yelling, over done menus, false smiles. It was just nice to have a decent chill meal. TLDR Know it is a diner. It was a good meal and worth going to. Don't expect a latte.

Cherry Bomb Sweets is a pretty chill place, literally and figuratively. Maybe gets some lively customers but nice for the most part. They have classic pop in addition to the ice cream so these interesting flavors go together. Because it was hot it was a good idea to come here. It's in a building that looks like it used to be a bank, so it's a good repurpose. This place doesn't get that busy it seems. Maybe because there's a Dairy Queen close by. This place has tons of beverage and ice cream options. It's about $2 for one of the many bottles of pop they have. There's a ton of interesting colors and flavors including the Frostie Soda, which had the green apple among these. It's about $5 for a bowl of ice cream. Last time they had the pineapple sorbet. Always has a few non dairy choices. That's cool stuff. Good to support local businesses. It's of course the busiest in summer. There's tons of pops and ice cream including a few sorbets for vegans.

A True Gem for Polish Cuisine Lovers!…read more We had the pleasure of visiting Delight Wish on a Thursday night, and what a fantastic experience! Our party of two was seated right away, with no wait, making for a relaxed and enjoyable evening. The ambiance is warm and inviting, and I absolutely love the huge wooden tables--plenty of room to spread out all your plates and truly savor the meal. Their drink selection is impressive, featuring a great variety of European beers, wines, sparkling wines, and classic Polish/Eastern European liquors. I ordered a Prosecco (they offer convenient, single-serving bottles--such a great touch!), while my friend opted for a Perła (Polish beer) with raspberry syrup. If you've never tried this combination, I highly recommend it! It's a nostalgic taste of Polish summers--a crisp Polish lager or pilsner with a hint of raspberry syrup. For food, I ordered the sauerkraut and mushroom pierogi, while my friend chose the potato and cheese (ruskie) pierogi. We both had them fried to perfection and served with sour cream on the side. Absolutely delicious! I also added a side of beets with horseradish (a perfect complement to the pierogi) and a serving of bigos (hearty and flavorful--just as it should be!). The prices are reasonable, the portions generous, and the flavors authentic. Plus, while you're there, you can pick up Polish bread, candy, chocolates, and chips to take home, making it a perfect spot to stock up on your favorite treats. I'll definitely be back--and if you're in the area, this is a must-try!

The woodwork with the tables are sturdy and was fun that the resin pour there were lil sharks in the table. So fun. Now the food. Very reminiscent of the Polish restaurants I remembered going to as a child with family on the South side of Chicago. Their house made bread with butter was very good. My husband got a beer and liked it so much he got bottles to go. He had gotten the breaded pork chop stuffed with cheese. I got pierogi and sides of fried cabbage and the sweet and sour beets. Would recommend all of it and would get it all again! Looking forward to our next visit.
