We had 3 different servers on our visits, and they were all 10 out of 10 for their service and efficiency. All of our food was cooked to perfection without having to add any additional seasoning.”

“Enid, Faye, Joseph, and Odalys made this by far the best experience we’ve had at a Subway thus far. Their attention to detail applied not only to making the sandwiches but also to packing them neatly for us, noting us customizations and being kind and friendly throughout. I love their teamwork and the positive energy they bring to the establishment. If anyone is looking for a stop on their way from Boone to Charlotte, or just a quick, healthy bite prepared by truly good people, this is the spot. Jai Gurudev!”

“After driving past Mexican Rock several times, I decided to stop in and try the food for the first time. I was dinning alone, was quickly seated, and chips and salsa were delivered right away. they were very good. I had extremely high hopes. I watch a large group being seated at a table across from me, a man and his son, and then an older couple . The large group had their drink order taken, then the man and son and a server bypassed me once again to get the couples drink order before turning to notice me 20 minutes after being seated, still no one had taken my drink or food order. The restaurant was no where near full. I asked to pay for my chips and salsa to which he replied "it's free" i proceeded to lay whatever cash i had in my pocket ($6or$7) on the table and left. maybe had i not been alone, service would have been better? I understand larger groups tend to leave larger tips, but I tip very well if my service is good and still tip if it isn't. maybe I will give it another chance in a few months I dont know. But for today's experience, I would not waste my time again”

- Chocolate Chip Cookie Ice Cream Sandwich
- Ice Cream Cookie Sandwich
“If you’re looking for the ultimate ice cream indulgence, this is the place. The ice cream is full-fat, ultra-creamy, and absolutely packed with flavor — no shortcuts or watered-down taste here. Every bite is rich and satisfying, just like real ice cream should be. The cookies are perfectly soft and chewy, making the ice cream sandwiches feel homemade but elevated. You can tell they care about quality — from the unique flavor pairings to the textures. And the servings? Huge. These sandwiches are no joke — they’re big enough to share (but you probably won’t want to). This shop is a must-visit for any dessert lover. Forget the low-fat stuff — this is how ice cream is meant to be enjoyed!”
