    The lady at the front counter and so quick and sweet!! The food was also amazing and they did a great job at getting our food out quick (it was a whole volleyball JV and Varsity team of over 20 people). Also had a funny moment with the front counter lady and she made my and my other friend laugh and it was amazing!!
