Convenient AF!!! LOL.Right across the street from the Damen Pink Line.And they serve late.Whats not to like?? DUH!! Also,staff is very nice.Im mostly in there for takeout.Im kind of leary of the people that drink there after midnight.Kinda look like a bunch of not my type of people.But WHATEVER!!! Who knows??? Maybe I'd get along great.Either way this place is a REAL GOOD spot for carryouts.One day maybe I'll give them a shot and drink at the bar.Oooooor MAYBE NOT!!!
