    Don't eat out much, but the times I am in town running errands I like to grab the number 10, which is chicken bites. My first order the chicken was so old and my fries were cold, called in and was told to come back and they would replace it. Went back an hour later after my appointment just to be handed some more old food.

    IF I COULD GIVE 0 STARS I WOULD Spent almost 100 dollars and they got a plain double cheeseburger wrong 3 TIMES first time they brought out a normal burger second time they brought out two pieces of bread with a single burger inside no cheese third time they brought out a double cheeseburger with eveything but cheese on it and when the manager came out he was extremely hostile when they went back to make the burger i could see them throwing stuff around and throwing a fit. 1 star i will never come to this place again its absolutely ridiculous
