- KFKaprice FryeOct 15, 20251.0Update your hours, it gets exhausting guessing if you are going to be open.
- WCwade cruseSep 9, 20253.0Kinda surprised they take an hour and a half for lunch
- KMKiara MoraJul 29, 20255.0Personally when I came here I was helped and was given over and beyond customer service. Thank you Angelo for helping me find my package! Being at temporary lodging I had a gift from a family member that we could not find and Angelo went above and beyond to help me find it and point me in the right direction to pick it up. I got it with no problems. Thank you again!
