    I tried to go on Saturday October 18 2025 at a quarter to 11 pm. Workers were sitting outside talking. A female started yelling "we closed!". Usually go 3 days a week on my way home from work as their on the way and the only place really open that late. But hey, they closed...guess I won't be back.
