Customer Reviews

Sorry picture was a dozen but kids couldn't wait! So I've been coming here since I was like 2 years old with my grandmother. Fast forward 27 years later, it is still the same owner behind the counter! The memory she has is remarkable! As there was a period of time that I didn't live in long beach and it was years before I came back here! That first time coming back, her tone was just that, like a family member who hasn't seen you in a long time! Remembered who I was, asked about my grandmother, mother and b
