Strawberry Shack

“I purchased the starwberry carrot cake. If I could give it 10 stars I would. I don't think I have ever had such delicious carrot cake like this before. The strawberry frosting was the best part. Every time I come to this part of California now I'm buying a strawberry carrot cake.”

“Stopped here on the Carlsbad Food Tour and it was the perfect dessert spot! Apparently the strawberries are measured for their sweetness for each batch to control for how much sugar they add and sliced with a mandolin to ensure uniformity. Yum!”

“Man this one was a big miss. There were a lot of people there which made it seem like it was going to be solid, but honestly we were super disappointed. Maybe we just did not get the right stuff but based on what we had, it was not worth the hype at all. We ordered the Dubai Chocolate and the Strawberry Sundae. The Dubai Chocolate with all due respect was kind of a joke. $18 for a little cup of strawberries with some chocolate drizzled on top. Absolutely not worth it. Even their small size was $10 and still not even close to being worth it for what you get. I was hoping the strawberry sundae would at least save the day but it missed too. It was just a super generic strawberry ice cream and vanilla combo with whipped cream and some strawberries tossed on top. Plus it had this weird watery pool at the bottom of the cup which just made it feel even more thrown together. Nothing really special about it at all. Social media definitely led us astray on this one. Thought it was going to be some crazy good spot based on how hyped it was but it just did not deliver.”

“We were disappointed by our experience, mainly because of the customer service. We ordered desserts for a group of 7 and received two strawberry shortcakes instead of the two strawberry Dole Whips. We politely asked for the mistake to be corrected, but the employee responded, “That’s what you ordered,” in a dismissive tone and seemed irritated. She then walked away, helped other customers, and left us waiting. When we asked again, she returned, slammed the Dole Whips down forcefully, and walked away without saying anything. Mistakes happen, but the way this was handled felt unnecessarily rude.”

“I heard such great things on tiktok and decided to make it my first stop for my birthday. I asked for dole strawberry and strawberry shortcake for my daughter. Both were good nothing special but what made me decide to never go back and write this review was how we were treated. The young blonde girl who was working was super unfriendly when taking our order then when she gave us our bowls and the cup for spoons she slammed them down and shut the window hard on us. There was absolutely no reason to act that way maybe its because we're brown I dont know but I will make sure to spread the word.”
