It's almost a tourist attraction at this point, and a must try at least once. It's unique and memorable.

My grandma and I have been coming here for 20 years. She used to worked at the bank across the street and as a kid I always loved this place, great dessert and playing mortal combat on the old arcade machine. I always get the pizza torte and she always gets the tostada don style with a side of guac. All you can eat chips and salsa also all you can eat soapipias. Don please don't retire we love you!! You are a Kansas City legend and deserve a historic monument.
