    The food is amazingggggggg the drinks were too but took forever to come. The food don’t take long. But the reservation process is a nightmare. Even with a reservation we still had to wait about 10-15 minutes. But the food was 10/10

    Was charged a deposit and did not use the entire balance, was only offered a gift card and not a refund. Food was good, but it was very loud.
