“Church of The Messiah had it’s Holiday Brunch on yesterday and everything was absolutely wonderful. The welcoming environment, the food and all of the fixings. I love going to an establishment and I’m eating on wonderful china,flatware,and glassware. The owner/operator showed love and attention to every detail. I will return.“

“I had Small Cakes make cake pops for my daughter in laws baby shower and they were absolutely awesome. I’ve never had cake pops taste that good. And they even made little bears just like the pic I sent. Highly recommend!!“

“Every so often there’s a key lime cookie. That cookie is delicious— I’m hooked!“

“Ordered the chajá, red velvet cake and the key lime pie. Enjoyed everything — the dulce de leche in the chajá was so rich, and I surprisingly enjoyed the nutella in the red velvet cake — but the key lime pie was a standout. Usually I find that places make key lime pie too sweet for my taste and this one does NOT have that problem 😂 Would definitely order from here again!“

“Just did the cupcake monster decorating class at the Waldorf location and they were so sweet. My daughter asked for mermaid decorations and Chef Tai put some chocolate into a mold and into the freezer on the fly. She also did bats and ghosts on request, it was so, so sweet. Kids (4 and 3) loved it, and super tasty, too! Will definitely be back!“

“This place is very unassuming but their cookies are really good. Super thick and gooey with just the right amount of crunch. My girlfriend and I came in and got the Brookie and it was amazing! I wholeheartedly recommend checking this place out if you like cookies.“

“A big shout out to Charlotte at the H Street store in DC. Every time I'm in there, she kills it with her customer service! 👍“

“Where to begin... got the chance to visit Paradise Ice Cream. Great and prompt curbside pickup service. OMG the ice cream cookies are so good but the strawberry cheesecake on sugar cookie is my favorite. I wish I had taken a picture prior but there is nothing left. Can't wait to go back to try more of their homemade ice cream flavors.“

“Shay was so amazing, friendly, and attentive from the moment I walked in to the moment I checked out. I received incredible customer service from her as well as a great positive attitude! I will absolutely be coming back to this Crumbl because of Shay!!!!“

“Ricas minutas 🤪🤪 para la calor“

“Smores are my love language. Roasting marshmallows over a crackling fire is so comforting & nostalgic...and delicious 😋

We bought one set of a smore making kit ($5). Camp wharf also sells piping hot apple cider ($5). It's a fun experience. Prices are reasonable to me.

Highly recommend.“

“The best!“

“The entire process was pleasant. The initial inquiry with questions answered in great detail and suggestions for what amounts to order for a specific number. The food was very delicious. Everyone at the event kept asking about who made the food. The birthday cake was beautiful and very moist and sweet. Everything was prepared with love and delivered on time. I will definitely use their services again and would recommend then to anyone who requires catering.“

“Super cute little ice cream place ! They had a nice variety to choose from. We got a few different items and ENJOYED them all!! The milkshakes were thick and tasty the cones were perfectly made and the banana split was the best !! Most certainly will be returning !!“

“I thoroughly enjoyed these cookies. The banana cream pie is my favorite so far. We took our kids on the Halloween Trail that was happening today, Saturday, October 25, 2025. I saw right many people carrying a box of these cookies. I stopped in and it was well worth. Y'all have got to try these! 5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Stars.“

“Lazy Mike’s is a classic neighborhood diner serving vegan, vegetarian, and meat dishes. You can substitute vegan meats for lots of the meat dishes including hot dogs, impossible burger patties, and veggie sausage. They even have vegan sorbet at the ice cream counter. Pretty reasonably priced. Updated from previous review on 2024-05-20“

“Delicious cookies. The Dubai chocolate cookie is outstanding!“

“Went to get some cookies tonight, hangry and kind of rude. Kelley stayed so hospitable and kind despite my funk. Even kept me updated on exactly how long it would take for them to bake my sold out cookies. Didn't even mind waiting the 15 minutes because he was so great Cookies were great too, obvs.“

“I went here for my birthday (the staff didn’t know it was my birthday at first) and they were some of the most genuinely sweet people I’ve ever interacted with! Then, when they found out about my birthday they went even more above and beyond to make me feel special 🥰 In house I got the cereal milk soft serve with the corn flake crumble and an iced coffee overall an 11/10 ☺️ Very happy with my experience!!“

“I always stop by and get fresas con crema, which is strawberries and crème! Their treats are soooo delicious and worth a try. I’m going to explore the menu a little more as I’ve only tried the corn, fruit options, strawberries and creme and the aguas frescas. As far the customer service, the blonde haired lady and the really short lady that wears a bun are always super nice to me and have never given me an issue. I love their service and their friendliness every time I come in. There is a younger, taller girl that works in there that always gives me some type of problem. Mind you I do not visibly look hispanic, however I speak fluently, understand, read and write it.. The first time I came in, she told me they were sold out of the corn, but served another customer corn and so I said awww is there anymore and how someone else was getting it if it was sold out? As I was looking forward to it., she stated they placed a phone order, very rudely. I continued to explain that it wasn’t fair and didn’t make sense as the guy walked in after me and I heard him be asked what would he like to order. Today, she makes my strawberries and crème visibly different than any other time either one of the other ladies do it. When I looked at the cup, I returned in the store and I explained that this doesn’t look how it usually comes when I buy it with someone else. She says the blonde hair lady told the shorter lady that she’s making it wrong and that she needed to stop. I told her that it didn’t make sense because the blonde lady has also made it for me and made it the exact same way the shorter lady made it. They need to get rid of her or simply have her making orders and not speaking to customers. She is not customer service oriented, treats any visibly Hispanic customer like gold, meanwhile she spoke to very rudely until her jaw dropped on the floor when she heard me speak Spanish. Avoid HER at all cost, but please do not avoid this place. It’s soooo good, which is why I have a 5 star rating. One monkey doesn’t stop the show. 😊 I can’t wait until I visit again, because I will be having a conversation with the blonde hair lady to explain my negative visits“

“I came across this chocolate shop while shopping in Georgetown, and I decided to check it out. I ordered a large hot chocolate- and I'm sure glad I did. The hot chocolate was the single best hot chocolate I may have had in my life. The drink was rich with flavor unlike other hot chocolates I have had through the years at chain coffee shops or the powdered stuff you make at home. The price for a large was a bit over 10 dollars - so be prepared for a bit of sticker shock. At first, I thought the cost was ridiculous, but the drink lived up to the cost. I'm looking forward to my next trip to Georgetown so I can stop in again.“

“I love Chè Bà Ba , chè Thưng“
