“Have enough people not ranted and raved about this place. I'm already dreaming about the next time I have their banana graham ice cream. Top tier stuff, can't imagine why you would go anywhere else for ice cream if you live anywhere near the quad cities. I'm thankful I'm 2 hours away, otherwise I'd find myself here way too often.”

“Where do we even begin?? Gloria, her family and the entire Lavender Crest team that run this facility are just amazing! We held our wedding and reception here a couple of weeks ago and there are no words to express how happy and grateful we are for this! From the very beginning, Gloria and Lavender Crest were super friendly, flexible, timely, informative, patient, and so easy to work with! They were willing to meet with us anytime we had questions or let us stop in anytime we needed to if we needed measurements or to check out anything. Very responsive when we would email questions or information for the wedding over. The venue itself is so gorgeous with the grape vines and the gazebo and the flower berm! We didn’t even have to leave the venue to go take pictures. We did our ceremony out by the flower berm and the arch and the pictures that are coming back with all the flowers in bloom are stunning! The cocktail hour and reception were inside and just as nice! They have a cute cafe/bar area that guests could meander through and then the reception hall was right next to it and just so pretty! They pretty much let you decorate it with anything and everything you want to. If there was anything we weren’t sure on they were willing to help with suggestions! The food was exceptional! We did the buffet style and we had so many people tell us how good the food was. If you can swing it we highly recommend the prime rib carving station! That was probably one of the best prime ribs I’ve had in a long time. I need someone I know to have a wedding there so I can have that prime rib again haha! And also, a surprise wildcard…the seafood lasagna rollups! They had this at the food tasting and we never would have given it a glance if it hadn’t been there. It was so incredibly good! They also have different options for the bar. We just decided to do all items open bar and it was very reasonably priced! And so worth it…the wine is fantastic! I heard a couple people say they were going to pick up a couple bottles from the gift shop. But overall the pricing for everything is very reasonable! That being said I am sure there is something we left out but thank you Lavender Crest and Gloria so much for truly making this one of the happiest days of our lives and we can’t wait to get back there for our anniversary or even just a weekend lunch and wine tasting!”

“Excellent atmosphere and amazingly prepared food! My husband and I visited here last night, and we both were raving about the food. The salads were fresh and super tasty. The pecan crusted salmon with blueberries was unlike anything we’ve had but in the very best way. Pleasant atmosphere for good conversations and kind staff. We’ll be back often! Great job everyone!”

“Very good food & service. I wish I'd gotten the name of our waitress so I good give her a shout out. Both myself & my wife though she was really on top of things.

Food was excellent. I HIGHLY recommend the Molcajeta de Herradura. Slightly spicy, very slightly , but tons of food,...I'm a big guy & can eat. Couldn't finish it...almost, but not finished.

Wife had enchiladas - also substantial in quantity & very flavorful per my wife.

Margaritas were delicious...bot regular & strawberry. Pretty wide drink selection

Restaurant is clean, modern & well laid out.”

“My first time visiting this place yesterday. I enjoyed the whatever bowl. I will be returning tomorrow. 😊 The ladies at Virginia Beach store was very welcoming and friendly.”

“Great lunch spot, quick food cooked fresh right in front of you.”

“Just had the Ribs and baked beans again. Fall off the bone ribs with amazing sauce. The baked beans must be the best on this planet.”

“First time dining at La herradura in Coal Valley. The restaurant was beautiful and much more spacious than I expected . There were lots of cars in the parking lot, which is always a good sign, but we did not have to wait for a table. Service was wonderful! The menu was huge—so many options and so many different dishes from the normal offerings around town. Portions were very generous too. Didn’t get a chance to try a Margarita flight but we definitely plan on checking that out on our next visit!!!”

“This was my first time for Mediterranean food, and it was fantastic! The food, service and staff were exceptional!”

“Whitey’s is the place to be—hands down, no debate. If you’re visiting the Quad Cities, it’s basically a rite of passage to stop here. From classic scoops to creative shakes, they truly do it all.

If you’re just going for a scoop, the White Chocolate Raspberry is a can’t-miss—it’s smooth, sweet, and perfectly balanced. But if you’re feeling adventurous, go for one of their shakes. My top picks? The Lemon Bar Shake, Pineapple Upside Down Cake Shake, or the Turtle Shake. You really can’t go wrong.

This isn’t just the best ice cream in the QC—it’s easily some of the best ice cream anywhere. Whitey’s knows what they’re doing, and they do it with flavor, heart, and Midwest charm.”

“double marvelous matcha with strawberry and white chocolate no one does it better one of my favorite businesses in the entire quad cities never gets my order wrong the workers are amazing Starbucks couldn't dream of making a matcha that good the worst part is only having two locations they could build on every corner and I wouldn't be upset I'm the hardest person to make happy and I can not complain about anything at all I'd recommend the banana creme pie one too that's like an entire snack in a cup and your rewards point system is awesome thank you so much for serving in the quad cities ✨✨✨✨✨+”

“Ate there with my boy Lucas (well known guy in the QC) for our lunch break and were very impressed by the friendliness of the staff and how clean the shop was. This place is perfect for the event plex area and I’m sure the community will love having them on busy days!”

“This is a great place to eat . Food was very good very friendly staff. Will go back next week r in the area. Janette”

“Fantastic pizza and excellent staff! 10/10 would recommend.”
