I used to like this place a lot but once the new owner came in it all changed. The food is garbage, the prices went way up and the so called cook can’t get my order right no matter what I order. I ordered a burrito with no tomatoes and for some reason it had salad dressing all over the lettuce and tomatoes. I will never eat at this dive ever again. Also don’t get Door dash from here the driver steals food. Stay away if you can.

I ordered a 6 piece and this is what I received. I called to get my order fixed and the woman that answered the phone is very rude. I asked to speak to someone else and she hung up on me.

Their food is great however the girl answering the phone is extremely rude! I wish I was able to walk the stairs and go pick up myself so I could give her a what’s for and let her know how you should treat customers and I am always nice on the phone! And then when I told her what floor and apt number she said I would have to come down and get it.. I have never had to in the last 6 years! I am disabled and unable to Mannuver stairs without assistance! Finally she said they will call you for apt number.

Food was good. Normal, what you would expect. They have a lot of options. Also, the people are really nice. It was a nice ambiance. We enjoyed ourselves. Would definitely think about going back. It’s not fast food but we didn’t mind the wait. No more than 10sh minutes

Enjoyed shrimp fried & breaded with fries. A nice sized portion. I ordered online, but they did not get it. So, call them as well, because they don’t get enough online apparently, so don’t really attend to online communication. They have picnic tables. Easy parking.
