About ALCENIA'S DESSERTS AND PRESERVES SHOP

This is one of the most famous diners not only in this state but also in the whole of America. With so many memorable and popular dishes, Alcenia truly does deliver true perfection with her assortment of original and classic menu items. Try the Salmon Croquettes, Sweet Potato Cobbler, Fried Chicken or the Egg Custard Pie to finish off the perfect meal. Or heck, start and end with the pies - we've been known to do that several stops here too. Soul-food is the name of the game here and defines it perfectly. Bright and colorful location that always has a relaxed yet very much friendly vibe to it. Breakfast and lunch here are the specialities and will cater to your every need and craving. It's not super fast here, because everything is made with care, fresh and of course to order. Nothing is pre-made or microwaved.. it's actually quality food prepared and served right. It's a truly sincere joint that is happy to see their customers happy. This is how successful diners operate these days and continue to outlive the big brand box chain stores. Then menu is slightly new everyday, so expect to be surprised.
