    Staff is nice but i was so disappointed in the dessert. The treats are served cold, and it was hard to even bite into bc they were "too" cold. The brownie was so hard to eat. I was really sad w my visit, especially because i love strawberry ANYTHING.

    Such a cute, strawberry everything shop! The gentleman who helped us was friendly. My daughter ordered a shake and strawberry crumb cake. The shake was too sweet for me, but the cake was good. There are t-shirts, plushies and other trinkets available for purchase as well.

    Walked past after we visited a nearby establishment for a drink. Happened in to see what awesomeness was hiding inside. Ordered a strawberry dolewhip that tasted like you'd imagine a strawberry shortcake doll would taste like. Smelled the same too. Totally delicious and fun as a treat. Worth stopping by and getting one of the many strawberry options offered.

    I always stop by here when i'm in the area and craving something sweet. I love all the sweet treats and trinkets this location sells. I appreciate the good customer service and there's also plenty of seating available and the location is always spotless. 5/5 stars for Customer Service Taste and quality Cleanliness Variety of treats

    Old soggy strawberries.

    My daughter wanted a little desert after dinner. We stopped in here. Everything looked like it had been baked days ago. She opted for the cheesecake ($7.85). It was topped off with old soggy strawberries. And they are selling fake Labubu's for $45 FYI. Will not be going back here.

    Wanted some dessert after a movie. And instantly regretted it. I should have just made the trip to another nearby place. The strawberry cake was hard and dry. The icing also hard and dry. It seemed to have been made days ago. I haven't regretted a purchase like this in a while. If you check this place out, learn from my mistake and pick something else out. I even tried to wait some time to see if getting it to room temp would help and it did not.

    The foot gave it away. ‍ lafufu

    Went to try something yummy. My daughter saw the LABUBU which is actually a LAFUfU beware don't purchase from here. I saw all the red flags and still bought it for her anyways. My fault.... The box was open (which looks real) the inside package was open. I had the strawberry Dubai cup, was not good. The strawberries were mushie and old.

    Came across the Strawberry Shack's second location just as they were opening for their second day of business! The owner was so friendly and welcoming we stepped right in. They offer a variety of strawberry desserts and a few non-strawberry options as well. We tried the strawberry and chocolate custard swirl, strawberry dole whip and pineapple dole whip, as well as dark chocolate covered orange peel, and chocolate covered strawberries. All were yummy! My daughter's favorite was the dole whip and mine was the big Belgian chocolate covered strawberry. They also have brownies with homemade strawberry buttercream frosting, strawberry cheesecake, strawberry key lime pie, strawberry tiramisu, and more. We wish them much success and will be back!

    Walking in this was the cutest little place! I originally went thinking I'd find something to refreshing to drink- I did not. What I did find was a ton of wonderful sounding treats. After a few minutes I decided on the strawberry rock candy and strawberry cheesecake. This cheesecake was amazing! Not too heavy, just perfect. The only complaint- and not really a complaint was the customer service wasn't the greatest. Not rude just not friendly, definitely not enough to keep me from coming back.

    It's strawberry themed, it's strawberry smelling and strawberry flavored. The service was quick and tasty! Definitely a sweet treat place!

    First & foremost: Happy the owner (Russ) has chosen O'side to open his second location, but this time with indoor seating. Now my husband and children have been to his Carlsbad location, but I had never tried anything from the strawberry shack up until our anniversary, which happens to fall on Valentines. As a low-key person who doesn't need all the frills, all I wanted to do was to try the strawberry shack but without our littles. I'd like to say we arrived at a perfect hour as we places our order, got the tour of all the decor, and a good sit-down conversation with Russ to include how his business came to be. No doubt we felt welcomed by an owner who truly loves what he does for a living. I'll definitely return for all things strawberry goodness and maybe some dole whip too!!

The flavors sounded so cool and I tried all four vegan options (S'mores, Three Strikes, Lavender Haze, and Vanilla Cake), the peanut buttery bite I had of Three Strikes had me excited so I got that flavor, but the soggy bits of kettle corn in my actual scoop weren't enjoyable. If I were to choose again, I would've gotten the Lavender Haze. The service was fantastic. The line was way out the door yet each time a staff greeted a new customer, it was with a bright welcoming smile and invite to sample flavors or get their scoops going. The inside is cute & I love the plants. They have a little sink, I'm guessing for sticky fingers to wash up after finishing their scoops! With only one doorway to enter/exit, it was cramped when people left after paying for their dessert. If someone was in a wheelchair, a lot of movement of the people in line would've had to happen for them to use the ramp walkway and get through the door. Street parking was easy! If I go back with others, I'd consider trying a new flavor if one comes, but for now, I have no desire to go back.

I would happily make questionable life decisions for another scoop of it. But honestly, what made this experience stand out wasn't just the gelato--it was Venezia. Huge shoutout to her for being so patient while we stood there completely incapable of making a decision. Instead of rushing us, she took the time to help us figure out what flavors we actually wanted and gave us recommendations that absolutely did not miss. She was incredibly sweet, genuinely welcoming, and made the whole experience so much better. And listen, this place is about an hour drive for me. An HOUR. Yet I'm already planning my return trip because the quality of the gelato and the service made it 100% worth it. If you're anywhere near this place, do yourself a favor and stop by. The gelato is ridiculously creamy, packed with flavor, and made with the kind of quality you can taste immediately. Dare I say it... the creaminess might even be better than An's Gelato . 10/10. Came for the gelato, left wanting to be friends with Venezia

As soon as you walk through the entrance gate, you are transported to a lovely tea garden. We did make reservations ahead as it is reservation only. Rushell greeted us and we were quickly seated. We chose the La Dolce Vita Tea Experience. We were able to sniff the tea leaves first in individual test tubes which absolutely helped me pick my tea. I loved that experience! Once everything was selected, we were brought out our teas and salads. The salad was refreshing and I especially enjoyed the fresh tomatoes, garbanzo beans, and house vinaigrette. I had the Eiffel tea and absolutely loved it. I typically prefer black teas with either hints of floral or fruit notes and this tea had the perfect combination. We were then given our individual towers/ tea tiers which consisted of three sandwiches (smoked salmon pinwheels, apple Brie melt, and Prosciutto, Feta And Balsamic Fig Sandwich) of our choosing, a cranberry orange cake scone with creme Fraîche and strawberry preserves, and a trio of desserts (lemon cake with blueberries, petite four, and a rosemary shortbread). I honestly loved everything I ordered. I loved the cake scone as it was very moist and the sandwiches were all divine with powerful flavors in each bite. I didn't love the creme fraîche, as I prefer clotted cream with my scones, but it does offer a great break from sweetness of the cake scone. I especially enjoyed how toasted the Apple Brie melt was. I love short breads and petite fours, so I'm a bit biased but they were my favorite desserts. Not only did we have a lovely time due to the atmosphere, tea, and delicious food, but we thoroughly enjoyed Rushell herself! She was so welcoming and shared so much with us.

There were 3 employees and two were standing around while one worked. A customer who came in after me got his order, and all employees were just standing around. I went to the counter and asked if I had been forgotten. 2 of the employees got to work on my order. The only young woman working there was on her phone and handling food with the same gloves. I said excuse me, to her and pointed out that she had been on her phone and handled food in without getting new gloves. She looked at me and said, "So do you want me to change my gloves?" I replied "yes, it's a sanitation issue. I have worked in the industry and taught restaurant management." She changed gloves, cut off the edges of the Taiyaki waffle she had touched with the other gloves, finished my dish, and slid my finished dish across the counter. She said nothing as she slid the dish of taiyaki towards me, and turned and walked away from the counter. The restaurant had an "A" rating, but the cross contamination issue of handling personal phone and food with the same gloves, is not "A" rating behavior. It was close to closing and I do understand that it was getting late. It is still very disappointing. The restaurant did appear to be clean in the customer area. As I watched all 3 employees, the gentlemen working showed safe and sanitary work behaviors. I hope this cross contamination behavior by the female employee gets corrected.
