Description

Eat at American Cupcake and you'll feel like a kid in a candy store, but it's not just about cupcakes. The Marina-based restaurant serves all-American comfort food like waffle fries, mac 'n' cheese, hot dogs, and Tater Tots, along with its amazingly sweet confections. You can watch your cotton candy as it's spun on-site, or go for a cupcake topped with bubblegum drops. If you're feeling brave with your friends, order the Mad Tea Party, which combines frosted cupcakes, ice cream, sprinkles, bananas, and the trifecta (chocolate, caramel, and strawberry sauces).
