    We went out for a drive from Omaha, NE and found this cute ice cream shop. We had ice cream only. Got butterfinger blast and a chocolate malt. Everyone was super friendly and the ice cream was great. Will come back again and try the food menu.

    Retro Sundaes is a great local spot. We stopped in today and the cheeseburger was fantastic—exactly what a classic burger should be. Simple, fresh, and cooked perfectly. We also tried one of their dirty sodas and it was really good. Next time I’m going back for the pork tenderloin. They also have great ice cream and desserts. There’s a nice patio for warmer days and a convenient drive-through if you’re on the go. The owners are some of the sweetest people you’ll meet, which makes supporting this small local place even better. Definitely recommend if you’re in the area and want a great burger.

    Wonderful, friendly, service! Love the pork tenderloin. Our family finds our way back here, an hour drive from home, every spring. Loved every visit.

    Cool little ice cream shop. I ordered a burger and homemade chips while there. The food took a while to be served but other than that the food was very good. I also ordered the homemade lemonade and it was amazing some of the best I have ordered at a restaurant. I will stop back when I am on the area again.
