“I really love this place. I'd like to make a request, though. Could you go back to making the homemade chocolate chips? Years ago, you would make chocolate chips in-house, especially for the Cappuccino Chocolate Chunk custard. They seem to be premade chunks now, or at least very different from the old ones. I really miss those homemade chocolate chip chunks.“

“I picked up a St. Patrick’s Day ice cream cake yesterday, and my experience was truly above and beyond. The cake decorator did a fantastic job—it looked great and tasted even better. I really appreciate the time and effort that went into making it, especially on such a short timeframe. The commitment to great customer service did not go unnoticed. Thank you for going the extra mile!“

“The ice cream was great with big portions and lots of fun flavors. The service was fast and friendly. They've got it down to a science even on a busy night. And the mini golf was a fun way to wrap up the evening. It was a well maintained green and had a fun water hazard. We'll be back!“

“HANDS DOWN BEST COOKIES ��“

“​If you are looking for authentic, no-nonsense Mexican street food, this local taco spot is an absolute must-visit.

​The traditional tacos are hands down amazing. They are perfectly executed with tender, flavorful meat on flour tortillas. They don't overcomplicate it, and they don't have to, the quality speaks for itself.

​The salsa is a standout. You can immediately tell it’s made fresh in-house. It has the perfect balance of heat and vibrant, bright flavor that elevates every single bite.
I didnt try the guacamole, but wish I had as it was made fresh!

​The service is warm and welcoming, and you can feel the pride they put into their food. The seating is fun for every table giving a unique experience to each patron. It’s exactly what a local spot should be. I will definitely be a regular here!“

“The ice cream is really good and staff is very helpful but it’s 7 dollars for a milkshake! Just a little much that I’d like to pay but if you have the money for that then its worth it other than that it’s still a great place to get ice cream“

“Delicious chocolate!!!! The employees are so friendly and welcoming!“

“My neighbor - who is my best friend - and I stopped there Friday after a really tough situation for her. Let me tell you, the lady there from down south was the sweetest person! Not only did she give upsize our Blizzards, but she prayed over my friend. We most definitely will be back! Hopefully on a much better day!“

“This Dairy Queen stands out thanks to its exceptional ownership! The staff is friendly, the service is prompt, and the cakes are super cute!“

“Counter staff could be much friendlier. The lady checking out customers was VERY short tempered and impatient when my family and others were ordering. We were only giving our orders like normal, nothing slow about the order, so to be rushed and so rudely dealt with was un called for. Other people in line were commenting on how rude she was, so on a funnier note, we all were joining in on the eye rolls and head shakes.I normally only leave positive reviews for businesses, as I understand how difficult it is working with the public, but this lady was truly incorrigible.“

“We come out to eat here more than any of our local restaurants. Twice this week we have been there. My husband ordered the pot roast omelette, both times he had asked for no green peppers and was told no problem but yet still had them all through it. When we told our waitress it just seemed not to be a big deal of hers. This evening alone my silverware was greasy, we ended up having to ask the shift supervisor for a drink refill and she ended up getting our box and check for us, my son's plate had something hard cooked in the scrambled eggs as well. This evening we came in a little after 7. There were still a few tables and someone came in after us. Towards the end it seemed like everyone sat in the back and didn't care about anything. I understand it's almost closing time but still. I was so annoyed with our visit this time. There's no consistency in service sometimes.“

“The hospitality is excellent 🙌🏽“

“We had fast amazing service. The ice cream was picture perfect and staff was wonderful thanks for the very good service Tonya and Haley and i didnt get the boys name but they went out of their way to be so sweet Thank you all staff at mt pleasant Dairy queen!“

“Ashley is awesome!! She is one of the best servers at the Herminie DQ!! Her smile (even through the mask) is apparent and her laugh is contagious. It is awesome to have such great service. Ashley's attitude and zest for life will take her places in the future. Best of luck and thanks for the awesome service!!“
