    Waffle with strawberries, blueberries, and other toppings
    Jean S.

    VolksWaffle is a cute, red, mobile waffle truck that sells delicious Belgian waffles. They are usually at the Midtown's Farmer's Market, but recently, I had a chance to try them at my office's holiday celebration. I ordered a waffle with strawberries, blueberries, Nutella, and whipped cream. It was sugary and delicious! The owner was super kind, friendly, and provided great customer service, even when the lines were long. He made sure to pack my to-go waffle with care. The waffles come from Belgium and are heated to perfection right at the mobile waffle truck. The truck itself is very cute and catchy. VolksWaffle is perfect for a great, fun, and tasty treat!

    I had a Soft fluffy waffle. It was good. Customer service was good. Not too busy. Inside of a parking lot so easy parking. Smaller serving also but overall recommend.

    We came while he was closed, but the owner still made us amazing waffles. He also told us a lot about the ingredients. Very cool experience.

    Wonderfully Fresh!!

    It's always a pleasure coming here and seeing the owner. He is super friendly and always strikes up a great conversation. I called beforehand to see if they were open because it's been a while since I've been back and I know during Covid their hours changed. Fortunately they were open and I got the waffle with strawberries and blueberries, along with Nutella and whip, and it tasted just as good as before. The owner also gave us two free waters, which was really nice of him. Great customer service. Can't wait to come back!

    I've lived in the area for a while but never got the chance to stop by. Owner has a great sense of humor. Will be visiting again, the waffle was genuinely one of the best things I've ever tasted. The drinks are also really good!

    Are they still open? I saw a 'For Lease' sign on the building today?

    Sorry, it is on our website volkswaffle.net. Our business predominantly always has been: Mobile/Catering and it still live uninterrupted! Yes, we closed the end of July after 13 years. Especially in food service “mom and Pops are very hard to keep… 

    Are they still open? I went here on 2 different days and they weren't open and it was way before 2pm.

    Only Saturday and Sunday, what a shame.

My son has an egg allergy and has never had cake before. We wanted to make sure going forward, he would always have a cake that he can eat on his birthday. Haven saved the day, and we are now fans. We plan to order from here now! My only regret was not getting a bigger cake because it was so good. :) Order intake: We ordered a 6 inch vegan strawberry shortcake cake. Taking in order was really smooth via Instagram. Responses were timely. Haven has a menu you can choose from. I also shared images for inspiration (monster truck theme) Taste: SUPERB - all of it: the icing, cake, and filling. It did not taste vegan! So moist and flavorful. Filling included fresh strawberries too. Bakery Visit: Visiting the bakery was a delight. It was very clean, and to my surprise, every bakery item had a vegan option. Havens mom was there and she was very helpful and welcoming. I also got to try the island latte and bought one for my drive home! Pickup: Haven provides you with tips for handling the cake.

It was fun trying somewhere new as we usually go to our favorites. For the past several years we've been going to Scott's for celebrations, but that has gotten old so thankfully we found somewhere new and loved it. I highly reccomend this restaurant. The ambiance is spectacular. If you can get one of the side tables under the overhang with the wine bottle chandelier you'll love it. Here's what we ordered: Borscht with Beef: Traditional red soup made with beets, beef, garden vegetables topped with sour cream- To me it didn't look appetizing, but it's a traditional dish so we split a cup. We didn't have much hope that would be edible. We were blown away trying it. It was actually good. We were shocked. It was so good. It was filled with pieces of tomatoes and beets and huge tender chucks of beef. Spinach Blini-Gluten free, vegetarian, 6 blintzes filled with spinach and creamy white sauce. We really enjoyed these Spinach Blini. They were very rich. I could only eat two to them and took the third one with me to share with my husband. He really liked it and wish there was more. I really wanted to get the Cherry Blini, but we were too full even though we shared an entree. I'm so disappointed as they looked so good. We needed a couple more people at our table so we could have tried more dishes and eaten everything family style. Beef Stew-Tender chunks of beef meat, potatoes, carrots, mushrooms and this good things stewed in perfectly hearty cheese gravy baked in clay pot and served with tortilla on top. We split this dish and it was the perfect amount for us. It was really good. The chunks of potatoes and meat were huge, the mushrooms were firm, and the flavor was really tasty.

I drove 30 minutes to get there and a lovely young Ukrainian woman served me with a smile and elegance and I really enjoyed the Borscht and I normally can't stand the taste of beets so I will definitely be back. I then ordered several of their other plates and also enjoyed them so I took them home and ate like a Ukrainian for a few days. :-)

This takes me to the Arden-Arcade neighborhood of Sacramento where I had the opportunity in trying out "Sham Sweets". Established in 2019, this hole-in-the-wall Middle Eastern dessert shop is located directly on Fulton Ave and adjacent to Hurley Way. The parking lot is quite spacious as this small business shares itself with many other unique places. Business hours here are also very generous as they are open 7 days a week from 11:00am-8:30pm. I came here on the afternoon of Saturday 2/21/2026 at around 2:00pm. Upon entry, I was pleasantly surprised with how spacious, clean, and inviting this place was. And my oh my, they had a TON of desserts displayed everywhere! Everything from Turkish delights, baklava, künefe, Turkish cookies, and their version of a Middle Eastern ice cream, "Booza". Since it was the most requested item, I took a chance and ordered this. it is quite difficult to explain this food item but it has the chill factor of sweet cream but more of a dense, elastic-stretchy texture. It also had pasty pistachio chunks as a crumb topping. And since I wanted some desserts to go, I also ordered a total of 4 of their "Pistachio Bites"; two traditional/old-fashioned and two modern. Total price for everything only came to $10. The young man who helped me was very friendly, accommodating, and was able to answer all my questions. Since I had already visited their website, https://ediblesacramento.com/editorial/sham-sweets/, I had more of a general idea of what to expect at their bakery. After exiting the building, I enjoyed the Booza outside my car. I have to say that this dessert was like something I never experienced. One thing I have to say is that it is quite dense and creamy, almost a taffy-like custard. And with the chunks of pistachio with other elements packed in, it was quite chewy as well. I loved it but the flavor might turn a few people away. Once I got home, I enjoyed a couple of the Pistachio Bites and those also hit the spot. I love pistachio in general so when you make it into a small savory sweet, the flavor elevates itself on so many levels. The prices here are unbeatable, the customer service here was stellar, they have very generous hours of operation, and the unique Middle Eastern desserts that I sampled definitely did not disappoint. I expect to make many future visits to "Sham Sweets" and this place was sweet! My rating, a unanimous five stars.

Walking in, the line was short but the staff took a really long time servicing people. Since it's a 2hr drive from SF to Sac, you know I'm about to bulk buy. The case had a good selection but quite a few were sold out already. Everything looks really delicious but I had to control myself. Almond Croissant $7.50 - I don't remember what this tasted like so it must've been standard. Matcha Croissant $9 - Don't let the price deter you because for $9, you get a big filling croissant and it was honestly so delicious. The dipped part was like a white chocolate matcha and the inside matcha filling was so good. I don't know how but I fridged it and ate it the next day, IT WAS STILL CRISPY! This was the highlight and highly recommend getting it. Blueberry Choux $11 - This was also really good too. The blueberry filling was creamy and delicious. It tasted really fresh. Macarons $2.95 each - Standard stuff. I got a Thai coconut cream and this is a flavor I haven't seen before and recommend trying it! In summary, highly recommend trying this place. It is on the pricier side but if you're like me and don't go to Sac often, I would give this place a try and buy extra!!

It was the only thing in the world I wanted…read more I looked for places near me to get one, because I didn't wanna make it myself and this restaurant popped up. I have thought about trying it for sometime, and Sunday was the day. I got my person off of his computer game and we drove down to a decently busy drive through, so we decided to go inside as we wanted to review the menu anyways. The restaurant was clean and cute, almost set up like a little diner. THIS PLACE HAS EVERYTHING. or at least every fast food type item I wanted to see on the menu. We ordered chicken strip basket, a jalapeño burger, a chocolate shake and fried zucchini. There was at least 40 other things on the menu that I wanted to order, but figured this was a solid order for our first time. There was a little confusion with the cashier over the jalapeño burger, but I refuse to dock stars for a cashier who looked like they were still in training. The important part of the mix up, was the chef came out to clarify exactly what we wanted, so it was never really a problem to begin with. That chocolate shake has been living in my head rent free ever since, because it was perfect. The jalapeño burger (we ended up with 3 patties instead of two, per the menu confusion) basically brought tears to my partners eyes because it was so perfect. And they actually season their fries!!! I would give 6 stars if I could. Don't sleep on this gem. Whether you would call it a drive in or just fast food it is AWESOME.

We stopped in later in the evening for dinner and got the mushroom cheeseburger combo ($12.99), the Pastrami Cheeseburger combo ($14.99), cheese curds ($5.99) and fried okra ($5.99). They gave us our drinks right away and they have the nice crushed ice that's like tiny pebbles. It's always a treat when a spot has this ice because it's tiny and crunchy and not offered a lot. The food didn't take too long and came out on a tray for our dine in experience. There are plenty of booths here and during our visit there were a lot of other people enjoying meals in small groups and couples. The food was hot and fresh and the fries were nicely cooked crinkle cut fries. The fried okra as good, but needed a bit more seasoning or sauce to dip (we had ranch). The cheese curds were great, hot and the cheese was perfectly melty. My husband got the mushroom cheeseburger with just mushrooms, cheese, pickles and added bacon. He said it was a good burger and satisfied his craving, but isn't something he'd specifically seek out. I got the pastrami burger with everything on it and thought it was delicious, but the pastrami was a bit overcooked and dried out so the texture was a bit hard to bite through with the burger and I found myself eating the pastrami separately from the burger. There's plenty of parking here and they have a drive through. I heard the milkshakes are great, so if we stop by again we'll try one.
