- JJJefferson JacksonNov 12, 20251.0Food took a long time and was Raw
- OIOnica IrieNov 9, 20253.0Sunday November 9th 12 pm. Service was quite slow. Even though it wasn't busy inside, took almost 10 minutes for our server came to take our drink & food order. But at least our food came out quickly. I had the fried chicken sandwich with fries 🍟 Sandwich was great, fries were so over salted I couldn't eat them. My husband had the 🍔, it was good, he had the kettle chips, they were cold and some not cooked fully. Server never came back after delivering food, not even to ask to refill our drinks. I had to go to the bar to ask for our check after waiting for my least 10 - 15 minutes after we finished eating. I would probably try some other localoptions before going back.
- HEH EPNov 1, 20251.0We ordered a couple of flatbread, these came raw. Event worst, the African American waiter gave a extremely bad service, sounded rude, did not bring silverware or napkins, I had to stand and look for it, it was very rude bringing the check 10 mins after brought the food, did not make refills of the drinks. In overall the worst service in Merced.
- SSSantanaOct 19, 20252.0Ordered asada tacos ....no salt no seasoning no taste. This was when they first opened I'm not sure how food is now haven't been ever since. Other than that place is nice & clean
