Food was fresh, authentic and delicious!! The place was clean and the service was great!!
We love Alicia !! The best server hands down!!!! Food was great.everything was perfect!!!!
So for years I have passed by this placed and never thought to stop in. Well today I was determined to take this chance, hubby was like oh wow we going here!! I've always wanted to try it...we both was thinking the same things for years and never told one another. When you pull up you think you're entering this small lil dessert shop. Absolutely not, looks can be deceiving, that I know for sure now. You walk in and there's a huge area where they have the menu and party items to purchase, then you walk up to the dessert gallery( I say gallery because it's a lot to choose from). Then there's a restaurant beside that. You can sit and enjoy a nice delicious inexpensive meal. We had the wings and nachos...the nachos was the best we both ever had better than homemade. The service was really nice and friendly..true if you sit down for lunch or dinner they can be a little inattentive but once you request something they on it. Also they are clean and they constantly cleaning make sure you have a decent clean area to eat at. The cashier was my favorite she was so friendly and the most pleasant person I've encountered in years. We will definitely be back..crossing fingers the margarita be available to taste.
Not only does Shelly's do bakery . Their food which is Mexican is hands down one the best spots to get food on the Eastside . It's located on hwy 79 near Pinson.. if you have a out on that end do your self a favor and stop and grab some food . You will not be disappointed. Oh and yes the pastry and the ice cream is definitely on point also.
