The Sweet Shoppe Cafe - California

I’ve only had a chance to eat here one time so far, but I have to say, the strawberry pecan salad was the best I’ve had anywhere. They were short staffed, which any business owner can vouch, it is so hard to find good help, but the owner was there working and went to the back to I assume help prep the food, they were pretty busy, with just two people working and she was kind and friendly the entire time. I think the bad reviews on here are bogus, like not real. There’s no way. Food is great, customer service was great, and it was a stressful time when I was in there, so to me that’s testimony to being able to perform under pressure with the best of them. I look forward to trying their Buffalo burger and some of the other unique menu items. Keep up the good work. California, MO needs you!!

I don't have the words to describe how outstanding the food is . This place is by far a 10/10 it is by far they best food in California mo . I my self had 2 orders of the alligator bites which I highly recommend they are very tender with excellent flavor and I also had a order of the jalapeno poppers they are very cheesy and fried to a perfect crisp and the grilled cheese sandwich is delicious

I’ve ate here twice, the food has been phenomenal both times. One of the best burger I’ve had in a long time. You might have to wait a little since it’s a small place but it’s worth it

Stopped in last Friday for some lunch. Just happened to be in my Army uniform as I was on my way home and called in a to go order and as I arrived I was talking with Dr. Mike Lutz who then offered to buy my food and as he was going to pay the owner was running the cash register and told us she would pay for the food! Two great people! Two great business's!Also the food from The Sweet Shoppe Cafe was great!

I've been in a few times now and got the lotus drinks. Each time they have been delicious! These girls can make some tasty drinks. Definitely found my new favorite spot for tasty drinks.
