there is no such thing as a bad cake from Classic Cake.
we've been chowing down on these things for years & years and have never been disappointed. their new location is great - very pretty & lots of seating if you want to go in for a yummy scone or cupcake. friendly service & really good prices... you might pay a couple of dollars more but i'm happy to support a local small business AND enjoy a higher quality cake.

do NOT miss out on this restaurant for any reason. any at all. just go.  let nothing get in your way between you & 82 queen.

this is one of the best restaurants i have ever been to. everything was outstanding, start to finish. decadent meals & desserts, perfectly prepared and served with care & courtesy.

the price isn't bad (lunch was very reasonable). even if it had cost $200 for lunch, it still would have been worth it.

JUST GO!

BBQ Post 401

two hungry people were journeying through a part of virginia which was unfamiliar to both of them. luckily, they had yelp on their iphone and were steered towards BBQ Post 401 before they turned into malnourished nomads.
we both got the pork sandwich, fries & a drink, along with a piece of fudge. the bill was $20. good so far.
i was initially shocked at the consistency and appearance of the sauces in the big tubs. but then i tasted them. SO GOOD! i wanted to eat the white sauce as a soup. i think i filled about 4 of those little cups and dipped every single bite of my sandwich in that saucy white goodness.
the (very good) fries were great and also found their way into the white sauce.
this was a perfect stop right off of 95 for hungry foodies. i have already emailed them to see how i can have the white sauce shipped to me.

AWESOME!
I wish we had skipped all of the other restaurants and eaten here multiple times.
Service was super friendly & fast. Local fried scallops & oysters were on the menu and I did the combo plate. I have eaten fried scallops all over New England and the Mid-Atlantic and let me tell you - these just may have been the best I have ever had. The oysters were great as well, and the fries are awesome. The house-made tartar sauce is addictive and I couldn't get enough!
This is excellent food at a really reasonable price. You know you're in the right place when locals are stopping in after work. Highly highly recommended.

skip this!
we had a very very disappointing dinner on our first night in edisto. it started off with the horrifically bad "public restroom" smell filling the lobby. gross!
we got upstairs and were seated by a window - should have been nice, except for the bar below was BLARING music at 7:30 and the whole floor was being shaken by the bass. totally weird and bad.
our waitress was horribly rude - when we asked her if the softshell crab special was local, she said "um, i don't know. yes." OK good guess brainiac. she should have at least gone to find out, but made no offer to do such. my husband ordered the other special - grilled mahi. we had assumed that the mahi would be local & fresh, being that every other restaurant in the area features fresh local mahi.
when our entrees arrived, it was clear that neither were fresh nor local. frozen seafood. gross. and with a $25 price tag on each!
the salad bar was terrible. the mixed drinks were awful. our waitress was mean. all we wanted was to enjoy a night out but we just couldn't wait to leave!
do yourself a favor and hit whaley's instead. we had a fantastic, fresh, local meal there at a lower price and with fantastic service.

i like when a waitress puts 2 beers down on the table and says "i don't know which one is which... do you think this one's the stella"? GREAT JOB.
the food was pretty good here - not awesome-great, but i had a very satisfying meal. i got a fish special - black butter fish over spinach & potatoes. yum.
my husband's "salad", on the other hand, just appeared to be a contest of  "how many calories can you fit in this bowl?"
i ordered a house salad that never came. luckily it was a no-show on the bill as well. again, GREAT JOB.

Pat's Pizzeria

pat's is a favorite spot for the office to order food from. i've only eaten at the restaurant about twice. so this is mainly based on delivery.

ok, first, i'd like to address the issue of "rude service" that people complain about. a) never experienced it, b) what are you expecting at a cheesesteaks-to-go establishment in south jersey? this is not buddakan. it's pat's. c) who cares what they're like on the phone... they get huge orders here in less than 30 minutes, and the deliveryman is nice!

other than that - the food is delicious, always hot, and the prices are totally reasonable.

i have no issues with pat's.

A Little Thai Kitchen

i decided to try this place out and do some typical monday-night, i-can't-possibly-cook-tonight takeout.

now, this is purely my mistake, but nevertheless started me off on the wrong foot. prices differ by time of day. there's a lunch menu and dinner menu. i had apparently ordered off the lunch menu and was quite surprised when 2 chicken pad thai's rang up at $25. that's a liiiiiiittttttle steep in my opinion.

got it home, and it was great. piping hot, not too greasy, lots of cilantro & scallions, nice lean chicken breast, and yummy tofu too. i squeezed dinner & the next day's lunch out of my meal.

so i think i would do this again for lunch, but not dinner. it's just beyond what i want to pay for pad thai. i'd be very interested to try more of their menu, given the quality of my first meal.

For Eyes Optical

so i finally bit the bullet and got my eyes examined. as suspected, glasses were needed. being 28 and having zero experience in the eye department, i figured i'd head over to For Eyes because some people in the office recommended it.
the selection was good, the prices seemed fair. service was a slight bit lackadaisical but they did help out when i couldn't decide.
my glasses came in within a few days and they fitted them nicely for me. i like my new frames & i paid a good price for them (their sales are pretty good... $50 off when you spend $200 was happening when i was buying.)

my only real complaint is that i didn't get a cleaning kit with my new glasses. no cloth, no spray, no nothing. i went back when i was in the shopping center, thinking that they'd just forgotten to put a kit in my bag, but no, they're "all out" and "have been for months". seems unacceptable. they told me i could come back in a few weeks and "check" to see if they had any. this is not good customer service.

i LOVE this store.
this is my one-stop shop for unique gifts for friends & family. i've bought jewelery, baby gifts, cards, honey, candles & ceramics here and i always get a fantastic reaction to the handmade & fun items.
everything is made in new jersey, so i feel great about supporting a local business AND the local artists involved.
holly the shop owner is super helpful and runs all kinds of fun events & classes.
this place is the best!
