“Best place in the QC area time get coffee and energy drinks! The greatest breakfast burrito around. Pulse 84 does not disappoint!”

“Great atmosphere, great service….recommend it”

“Went for the first time today and was blown away! Easily the most creative, flavorful, “big city tastes” in the QC area. Do not sleep on this place.”

“UPDATED::
After posting my review, the owner privately reached out to discuss the experiences I was having. He even offered to make things right.

Before I accepted, I had to try another experience to see if my concerns were actually addressed.
Happy to report, I’ve been back a couple of times since and the folks in the drive thru are READING the tickets and got drinks unprompted.

Thank you for caring, Mexhit.

ENZO’S DOESN’T CARE

I frequent Enzo’s 1-2 times per week and order online for pick up every single time.

Every time I order a drink, I get to the pick up window and NO ONE has ever known we had drinks. I have to remind them every time. Even had an employee argue with me in the drive thru the last experience.

I called the restaurant after I left without my drink due to the rude employees and the ‘manager’ on duty who answered the phone said I ‘should’ve banged on the window until someone gave you your drink’

No apology, no listening to me explaining the situation…cut me off and was rude. Great management.

To further that, I had also left feedback on their website, via some AI chatbot tool…I left all of my information….no one ever responded to me or reached out. They don’t care about negative feedback unless it’s in a Google review.

The food at Enzos’s is quality, but the staff and attention to detail is worse than McDonald’s. When Enzo’s first opened, they rivaled Chic-Fil-A. Now they don’t seem to care.”

“Great food, fast service!”

“Great service, delicious chicken!”

“I just tried it and it’s my new favorite spot! The food is very flavorful and the service is good”

“Best tacos I’ve ever had! Whenever I come to see my family it is a MUST to stop and eat.”

“Love love the food best ever”

“I’m Chicago born and raised, so yeah—I don’t play about my pizza. Deep dish, tavern-style, Sicilian… I love it all. So when my friends kept talking up Smash Pizza, we decided to try it for Mother’s Day. It’s a cute, smaller spot, so just know you might have to wait or do takeout. But the staff made it worth it—our waitress (purple ponytail, wish I caught her name!) was so warm and helpful with recommendations. We started with the bread plate, and listen…that alone was a win. Fresh bread, olive oil, butter, burrata—honestly didn’t even need the extras, it was that good. Now the pizza. I was a little skeptical because Chicago folks know—we like our crust thin with a little crunch. But we went with their Sicilian style and I’m so glad we did. That crust? Light, airy, crispy…nothing like that chain pizza pan crust. Just done right. We got the Queen, and my son tried the mushroom and fried kale. I don’t even like mushrooms, but that fried kale? So good—crispy, flavorful, perfect texture. Everything tasted fresh. Like, really fresh. Hell, even the water tasted fresh, lbs! All in all, this place is legit. I haven’t had pizza like that in a long time—it really reminded me of home. If you’re thinking about going, just go. It’s worth it.”

“great food, great service,fast delivery,friendly people,family style,they make you feel comfortable,family like atmosphere. franks is the spot !!! Great, awesome food,great people to be around. Franks is ggggggrrrrrrreat!!!!!!”

“We were on the road looking for a lunch option.. so glad we stopped here! Delicious sandwiches and top notch customer service! 💕”

“For price to food ratio there is no better food in the QC area in my honest opinion.”

“Service!! 10/10 Jessy. Food delicious 10/10! Cocktails-outta this world!! 10/10”

“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!”

“Okay I feel like I should’ve just copied and pasted my other whiteys reviews here. There are so many whiteys locations in the QC to choose from but the wonderful thing is, quality is consistent. It is a local gem to us and we love it! The best thing about this east moline location is this one has a drive thru.

If you don’t know what to get, try a turtle malt!”

“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 pizza!!! Monday taco nights are also amazing! Great staff and great prices!”

“Excellent food always! Oliver waited on us and he is new to the area, he was awesome!”

“Stopped here after a long day of driving. They were doing road construction out front, but still easy to get to. Glad we stopped, great service, food came quick and was so delicious! We'll definitely be back if in the area!”

“We were looking for a relaxed dinner spot when we found Big Dave and Holly's. Our food was delicious and the lady working the front was nice. My husband ordered a Root Beer float to go at the end of dinner, when she found out we were at a hotel in town for the Eagle Fest, she even included a cup with extra Root Beer. ❤️”

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

“Ice cream is nothing special in my opinion. But 5 stars for the staff and service. Very polite and very nice. Place is very clean. If you want the best ice cream - you have to go to Pinks in Kauai!!”

“What a can I say, this ice cream parlor always brings a smile to my face when we go up to the Quad cities. The almond joy is my favorite flavor. Unfortunately, they don’t pre-make the pint but they can pack for you at the double the cost. But I get it. It’s worth it. Really delicious.”

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

“Great menu, friendly staff, and reasonable prices. I'm no expert but the choices on the authentic Chinese section of the menu are outstanding!”

“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!”
