    Open just as advertised. No matter how busy they are, night shift is always nice and respectful.

    I don't recommend their chicken, but their burgers and sides are amazing.

    Service is terrible. The food is cold because it sits waiting for another order to go out with it because carhops are lazy or mismanaged. Hard to tell who is running this particular asylum.

    Got here over an hour before close and they were almost snippy in telling us that they apparently weren’t taking orders anymore? Not sure what was going on but highly disappointed with the LACK of service
