“it was my first visit , I drove past this place a hundred times .. The Place was nice but practically empty ; the food was average 7/10 , my bill wasnt itemized it just had price !? coffee was weak , waitress was on her phone 📱 didn’t bother to get up when I came I and said “pick any seat” when I did, I was told.. oh no that’s reserved!?? Prices were reasonable nothing special probably won’t be back”
“Good food but it's too hot in the restaurant. Also the waitress was on the cellphone for half our visit. She was actually talking to customers at the table while on her cellphone. Finally, they take your order and bring the food out way too fast. Slow it down guys... half the fun of eating out is in the anticipation. And there was a bad smell that we kept coming in waves, while we were across the room from the bathroom.”
“This restaurant is totally great. It's my go to place. Anyone who gives a negative review, is just full of themselves, probably a Karen, and just overall entitled. Everything is great, from the waitress, to the owners, the service the food, the guy that refills your coffee, everything.”
