    They were closed for the season but when I ate there in the past, they had the best hamburgers and soft serve ice cream.

    Lemon soft serve has been a favorite since I was a little girl. Can't wait every year when they open. The best soft serve around. And the lemon is like nothing you have ever tasted. Even my kids love the lemon cone or shake. Absolutely the best!

    Good food, great ice cream. This place has been a must visit every summer for my whole life. Nice view of traffic. Very family friendly. Friendly staff. They could clean the tables more often, especially considering how many children visit, I've seen more than one kid lick a drop of ice-cream off.

    Dortees is a great place to eat. I got a sloppy Joe, cheese fries. All of it was hot, fresh, and delicious. Finished that off w blue moon ice cream. Friendly workers and owners.

    Best Black Raspberry shake I've ever had. Sure brings back memories from when I was a kid & came here!

    A real slice of nostalgia. Little has changed in 40+ years, including the flavor of the week.

    Decent hot food, must try their fried green beans and/or Lemmon soft serve! Service, at times, can be a bit faster. However, this location is an Excellent place to bring the kids (of all ages) to enjoy a delicious treat. This location has been in operation for a long time with countless repeat customers/patrons! Enjoy!

    Went to Dortee's with a group from church. The food was great, "cheeseburger & onion rings" The strawberry shake was to die for. Service A+ fast and friendly. Highly recommend eating here. We had our dessert first.
