“What makes Great Full Gardens even more special is the staff. Everyone we meet seems happy to be there. Love and care goes into the food and the way customers are treated, and it truly shows.

At the South Meadows location, we’ve had outstanding service from Alyssa, Jason, and Jake, and especially Shane, who always greets us with the biggest smile. He goes above and beyond, even when he’s not our server.

Great Full feels like a second home for us, and we hope they continue to have great success. I give them my highest recommendation.” – a Yelp review from a loyal guest
