    I came here, picking up a DoorDash order and decided to order some food as well. It’s 7 o’clock on a Thursday night. There are only about 4 to 5 people in the restaurant. The manager looks frantic and lost. I hear her saying they are running out of fries immediately after that she knocks over the bucket and spends 20 minutes cleaning it up so instead of having each employee at one position at a time random people are standing around not working and there’s a restaurant full of people. Seems very unorganized and frantic. Seems like more training needs to be done.
