We had a great dinner tonight and our server, Drew, was very friendly. She took the time to chat and talk about the food. 5/5!

I haven't been here in a while but the customer service has really really gone downhill. I walked in for breakfast. The hostess was rude and seemed very uninviting. The server seemed like she wanted me to hurry and get out before I even ordered. The food made up for it but with the bad service I wouldn't want to come back. I work in the restaurant industry and the attitudes were not good.

Managers Doesn’t wear glove! they literally grab your food with bare hands half of the time. Managers work while chewing and spitting tobacco. Over work the workers then fire them without saying a word when they ask for a raise. Josh has no kind of people skills and comes over as a rude racist. If you work here pls have another job on the side. this is probably the worst place i’ve worked. i cut my hand and needed to get stitches DJ insisted that i continued working...read full review
