Our server, Cody, was very attentive, polite and checked on us often to ensure everything was satisfactory and if we needed anything. The hush puppies are the best that I’ve had and the pickled tomatoes offered as an appetizer paired well with the salad and the hush puppies while waiting on the entree. Keep up the good work!!!”

“Best juice around served by some of the sweetest people!!! The juice is so fresh and the food is amazing. There’s not many healthy options around here so I was so happy to know when I moved from Spring Hill to Columbia that little juice co would be an option for me.

“Just a thought …came in to get an Americano with a tiny bit of oat milk and I’m charged an extra whole dollar for that. Girl behind the counter says it’s already in the system that way. then have different options in the system or have a self serve area where people can put their own in it that way we’re not getting nickel and dimmed.”

“I have been a golden member of another coffee shop for over 10 years and will not say who they are! But, they have NOTHING on Dutch Bros.

“Note: this was at the Donelson store: Just had my first and last visit here. Asked if there was any more of the Tennessee Strawberries and Cream as the tub was quite low - didn't appear to be enough for one scoop, even, and the young man behind the counter simply said, "No." I mean, I got my question answered, but he could have offered what was left to me in a cup for free if I bought another scoop of something else, for instance, or let me know when they would have more, or talked about the dairy-free version with chocolate chips, or...SOMEthing!! He just stood there and looked around, without trying to tell me about the products or anything. So, speaking of products, maybe he didn't, because there wasn't much to talk about. I settled on the mint chocolate chip and vanilla, both of which were just awful. You can tell the ice cream is made with a large amount of gums and emulsifiers, because it's very gummy and stringy. The mint chocolate chip was bitter, and not very minty. The vanilla was overly sweet and tasted like caramel, which I don't like, and was crunchy, as though the ice had solidified because it wasn't kept churning while freezing. It had a "slushy" consistency. Lastly, the vanilla had bits of some other flavor in it. Strawberry? Caramel? It was hard to tell - just darker sections of ice cream throughout. As I said - the whole experience was quite unpleasant, and I won't be back. Ever.”

“So nice a cute bar, dive like, I love dive like bars. Bartender was great, forgot her name(Delilah maybe) she made my drink perfect. Customers are great people. Paxton and Samantha nice people hope to see them again.
Thanks turnpike for making us feel at home”

“Great breakfast burrito. Only issue is have is they're not open when they say. I've shown up several times between 9 and 10 and they haven't been open”

“Walking up to the curb seemed a little weird, but once getting in was warm and welcoming..I love how Mila came out to tell us what was going on and how she was very honest. But most of all her spunky personality and God filled spirit was shining! The atmosphere was warm and welcoming and loud but also whos Italian Family is quiet? The food was delicious and you knew it was authentic and made with gratefulness and love! We will sooooo be back!! Jen if you see this please like bc my husband said he thinks you got our wrong phone number. Lots of love and blessings for Mila and her family! ♥️”

“We LOVE Taco Express #2 in Columbia TN! They have the BEST tortas and the lady at the counter is very nice!

“​I recently ordered the catfish plate from Divinely Inspired Creations, and I absolutely loved every bite! The catfish was perfectly cooked and seasoned just right. It was paired with some of the best onion rings I’ve ever had—they were perfectly fried, crispy, and full of great flavor. The slaw was also a delicious, refreshing pairing that complemented the fish wonderfully.

​And you must save room for dessert! The slice of Honey Bun Cake was just plain fantastic.

​Every item was quality, fresh, and delicious. I will always be happy to stop by and pick up a plate whenever I'm visiting town. Highly recommend!”

There is a man there (not sure if maybe he's the owner), every time I go, that opens the restaurant for my family to come in a little early, so we don't have to sit and wait in the cold for them to open. I live a good ways away, with 2 other Asian buffets that are closer. But I will choose this one every time! Keep up the great work!”

Did notice, though, that the lighting fixture above our table is desperately in need of a good dusting (that’s not a pink lampshade, supposed to be red)… didn’t notice til we finished our meal or would have asked for a different table… hate to think those dustballs are falling into plates of food!
Great service and food!!!!”
