    Service was great but sandwich had a small amount of meat, bad aftertaste and chocolate croissant was hard. Brought it home to try and soften up in microwave but it was still hard and tasted old

    I got the new ham benedict sandwich.Most disgusting breakfast sandwich i've had in my life. I've had better sandwiches for breakfast that are microwaved from circle K. The iced creme brulee also the worst iced latte ever. How can a place charge so much money and be so terrible? I will not be going back again unless they fix some stuff disgusting and a waste of money. No complaints about the staff or service.Just the food sucks

    The girls that was in there in the back where they was cooking and handed our food. Those two girls are so rude and disrespectful. I have been coming here for years and have always asked for extra soup and the girl that was in the back the White Gurl she wants to say well don’t do it. You should’ve never have done it because the other girl that was I asked for more soup she said we don’t do that and I said yes we do because you guys always have done it for me. It shows that well. This is the only time I’m gonna be able to do it and that’s when the White Gurl said you should have never done it then and she was so disrespectful kept on talking crap about me in the back.these two an the native woman
