Overall, Muffins Plus draws mixed feedback: salads are delicious and muffins are incredibly moist with multiple flavors of iced tea, and the menu also includes sandwiches and banana bread. A notable concern is the ice in drinks, with a staff member insisting the scoops were standard while the customer disagreed; the owner later explained the usual ice amount for a medium iced tea and offered a free replacement, which was declined, with the intention of giving the place another chance. One review praised a panini chicken and vegetables and described the waitress as pleasant, while the cashier was described as not pleasant. The overall impression is that muffins and salads are well received and there are many drink options, but customers should feel free to ask for less ice.View restaurant profile
