    Their food is good and the only one around where I live but they make several health code violations. I saw one employee touching their hair the proceed to make orders without washing their hands first.They they don’t have hairnets on. One employee didn’t even have their hair tied back. These things make it hard to trust your food is not contaminated with something. Not friendly, even dressing in what looks like pajamas and slippers as shoes. The management seems to not even put effort into following health codes

    Do not order online. Place is closed during normal working hours and you wont get your order. No Refunds.
