    Found multiple hairs in my food from I assume the same blonde, short haired food worker. So gross. Enforce hairnets

    DO NOT TRUST THIS LOCATION WITH YOUR MONEY. THEY HAVE DISAPPOINTED US COUNTLESS TIMES. The food is low quality, poorly assembled, and the management seems completely clueless. I’ve ordered from this place several times, and only twice was the food even close to satisfactory. The $15 Dipper Steak Sandwich had barely any meat or cheese, and what was there was dry and completely flavorless. The soup was basically just broth—no vegetables, no chicken, no rice. The other sandwich was just as bad. I tried giving this place multiple chances to get it right, but it has been failure after failure. Even the bagels were rock-hard, as if they were made days ago. I refuse to spend my hard-earned money on food this gross. What a shame. DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY

    I ordered the pick 2, beef cheesesteak & their new salad with crunchy beet strips. Chicken, feta, walnut, & pumpkin seeds. The cheesesteak overall was very dry, but the meat was tender. The salad had good flavor, the lettuce was not crisp & i didn't see much for pumpkin seads. 1/2 way through eating the salad my body rejected it. The cheesesteak was not rejected just dry.

    Terrible location, the entire brand has suffered since 2018, but this location seems to try to be exceptionally awful. High prices, awful food.

    Okay, you have to make your own iced coffee LOL. You pay for a specialty coffee but you need to assemble it. The cups are on one side of the restaurant and the coffee is on the other. Then you have to go collect your food at the counter. If you don't have a lot of time for lunch, you might want to go somewhere, but it's more convenient to be served all in one go.
