I only had the milkshake (chocolate with peanut butter) but OH MY GOD it was AMAZING...I had it about a month ago while in town on business, and I have not stopped talking about it. I have some co-workers that eat there for breakfast, lunch and dinner every time they are in town. Heading there tonight for dinner. more
