★★☆☆☆ 2.0 Lee McCoy · Feb 2026

They forgot the avocado on our club sandwich which costs an extra dollar and also only gave THREE chips for my soup. I noticed a while ago they were getting stingy with the chips, especially when ordered to go, but this is ridiculous for the amount it costs.

I’ve literally been coming here twice a week since the first time i came here. The service is so amazing attentive workers walking around checking on and cleaning tables. Clean and welcoming restaurant. Fresh and HOT food. My order has never been wrong. You can tell that management and staff care about a job well done. This is my go to spot fast,fresh,healthy,affordable,good food.

Waited in drive through line for 7 minutes all employees looked at me and never came to ask me what I needed. I didn't know they don't do drive through orders, phone orders and walk in only. I finally called and was making a order still sitting at the window, she was taking my order and a woman came up and said "what's the name?" I told her the situation and another girl told me I'm going to have to drive around and make a phone order. Very rude, yall lost mine and my company's business. Its not hard to be polite or just finishing the order you were taking instead of hanging up. Do better...

Food was tasty, ordering service left a bit to be desired.... Order attendant was not very helpful and didn't clarify how things worked when asked about daily soups.... Water needs to be filtered in order to provide customers with a better tasting water during the dining experience. The individual who delivered the order was so nice, attentive and pleasant. I will return, would recommend this place..... With the emphasis, to watch out for your understanding of how things work during the ordering process.

Arrive early when busy to avoid getting flimsy plastic knives and forks. Knives that are terrible when you need to use them. Metal utensils are preferred with good food, required
