    Been meaning to post for some time. The food is almost always pretty good. But you can count on 1. A long wait 2. Some of your items will be missing or wrong 3. No sauces, no napkins 4. The staff are usually polite, but the occasional exception is just straight rude. This is pretty consistent regardless of the say of the week, or time of day. And it can be really frustrating paying upwards of 50$ for a meal for your family, and oh look, were missing the fries, this cherry limeade is just sprite, no ketchup in the bag my daughter's tater tots are cold. I get stuff happens when things are busy but come on guys. The overall quality at this location has been sub-stanard for years.
