“This! This Taco Bell is what fast food service should be like. Always quality, always delicious, always quick. The staff here are so kind and friendly, and not just in comparison to other fast food places; some of them are friendlier than my actual friends. In my experience, I've always been able to joke around or laugh with the crew while waiting for my order. To the manager(s) of this location, thank you for making this a workplace where your employees feel like they actually want to be there.”

“1st time...won't be the last🕺🎊👍”

“The food here is great. This was our 1st time here. We were here all the way from Wisconsin for an event and i asked who got the best soul food in town and was told to stop by Cornbread. Amazing food, and service, and the place was clean. The Staff went above the call of duty. Ms. Donya if you see this, you are a JEWEL! This lady was right on time with everything. We visited the restaurant on Friday upon arrival to Michigan and was the first customers on Sunday 11:30AM as we were leaving from Michigan to return home. Go here, you will not be disappointed. The PRICE IS RIGHT.....and the Staff is BRIGHT!”

“Tried this place for the first time today! Rider was my server and he was absolutely amazing. Knowledgeable funny and sweet. Genuinely had such a good time just being in his presence and he was very attentive! Tried the flaming fig, although without the jam. Didn't personally find it too spicy without the jam, although my friend found it slightly spicy with the jam. Either way it was the most delicious grilled cheese ever. Great wine selection, and don't be afraid to try the espresso drink made with blood orange soda, it was very good! On the store side of things, there was a great selection of product and the service was great. Will definitely tell as many people as possible about this place and will come again!”

“Valentines day dinner! Was greeted with valet service when we pulled in. Taken straight to our table. Food, drinks and service was all great! There was a special valentines menu for tonight and we got branzino and filet for dinner both were fantastic! Dessert was even better! Only missed opportunity was our table wiggled but the server made an attempt to fix it. Would highly recommend this place!”

“Participated in a grad party given here by a relative. Great food, great service! Staff was very accommodating, and went out of their way to make things perfect! Atmosphere was perfect for an afternoon outdoor party! Would definitely recommend!”

“The lettuce wraps were amazing 👏 🤩 😋. We got the lobster dumplings also, they were good but would be much better seared or fried so I wasn't much of a fan of them. And the spicy sesame chicken was amazing..... we wanted to try dessert but we were so full we almost rolled out of the restaurant. I will definitely be back. I had a great first experience!!!”

Restroom was pretty dirty at our last visit.”

I got the Mac and cheese pizza and then it was like “want to make the other half a different specialty pizza?” UMM YES!!! Burger with perfect pickles, So many toppings everything was perfect, this is my new go to spot!”

“this place is AMAZING! me and my boyfriend come as much as we can.
the icecream is rich, creamy and full flavored.
they're family owned, they're open when the branded competitor isn't. 😏
acknowledge us promptly, and are super attentive, and by the time we order, it's up in the window.
i love the QT. my guy enjoys a oreo milkshake.
it's worth a drive from Pontiac To BHam EVERY. TIME.
thank you to all of the employees of this establishment for keeping things real, consistent and genuine. great treats, even better service.”

“My husband and I are from Missouri. We have tried plenty of boba places all over the U.S. when traveling. This is the best boba/general tea we have had anywhere. I ordered the Mango Sago, and my husband got Brown Sugar milk tea. The drinks are well balanced, toppings are generous, and the cashier was very friendly and upgraded our drinks due to being out of jumbo boba. We will be back before we leave! :)”

“The food was amazing! It was our first time and we loved it. The service needs a lot of work. There was a line but it moved fast and we were quick to place our order. It took 40 minutes to receive the food after ordering. Everyone else was receiving their food after a reasonable wait time except me and the couple that ordered right after us. I had to ask at the 30 min mark and then finally received it at 40 min. We ordered to eat in but received it all in a take out bag. We ordered a #1 (received a #1 but charged a #2 on the receipt) a #3 ( but only received 1 slider, tender was missing) and a #4 (but received and extra slider). We made it work since we got the total # of chickens that we asked for and could not wait any longer for them to correct it. The dining room is a mess! We were there for well over an hour and not once did anyone come out to wipe down tables as diners were leaving. Everyone that came in had to sit at a dirty table if they wanted to dine in. An employee, in uniform, was eating at the far back right corner table during dinner rush ( Friday night 5:30). When the employee finished they also did not wipe down the table and left it dirty for the next diner. The overall service is unimpressive for a location that just recently opened (Cicero, NY). We will go back because the food was fabulous but we will not be dining in and will definitely check our order before leaving.”
