    Reoccurring sewage smell and no changing table for kids in either bathroom. Bathroom counter too small to use as a substitute. Plus men do not get a mirror in the bathroom. Liked the staff though, one girl complimented my hair

    I arrived 30 minutes before closing time and they refused to serve me, saying they were already closed.

    Staffs are not professionally trained and not good at servicing customers. Hamburger is not warm and poor quality.

    Ordered at the kiosk. Food was quickly made and delivered at my table. Food and especially the fries were fresh and hot. Service was friendly, and they were even giving away free pies!
