- DMDesiree MilestoneJan 1, 20265.0Mediterranean sandwich with Mac and cheese. Yummy. Extra red peppers Its usually crowded unless you go later in the evening. Sometime seating location isn't good.
- CCChanceLoreDec 21, 20255.0I had an okay time but this one worker Lydia who might be a short bus hire if you get what I mean… she got my order wrong and when I went to complain she said nope that’s the right order then I pulled out the receipt and she just read what she wanted and kept denying that she got it wrong so? At least she was entertaining me because she’s definetly playing a satire character then after I finished the food that I was given still wrong Lydia gave me stank look but she kinda had a lazy eye so I could be wrong anyways very funny
- RDRussell DeJaynesDec 18, 20255.0Met one the managers with Pastor Jim, great kind lady. The food is great. The place is absolutely stunning clean and the atmosphere is comforting with a home feel. I noticed business men working on their computers. You can tell it's, quiet comfortable with good food. With many customers.
- HPHector PolancoDec 17, 20253.0They tried and were pleasant, but you should expect it to be "just ok" as they don't have enough staff to keep the place clean during peak hours.
- TWTrina WalravenDec 14, 20251.0$27 for a half grilled cheese and tomato soup from Panera… and it was inedible. Soup tasted off, grilled cheese was lukewarm with soggy bread. Took one bite and threw it out. Completely unacceptable for the price. Very disappointed.
