    I was hoping to have a nice yummy burger with chili cheese fries but food has changed here. Only thing that tasted normal was the cherry limeade. Everything else didn’t taste good at all. Not going thr again.

    Don't waste your money here! If I could leave ZERO stars i would. The corn dogs and pretzels used to be big. Almost $3 for ONE (1) corn dog and it's the size of a quarter in diameter! Not worth it. The pretzel i bought was burnt so that made it shriveled and hard to bite. Never gonna come here again. Inflation turned this place to crap, you can imagine what the other menu items will turn out to be if the freaking corn dogs/pretzels are so TINY.

    I ended up paying around $40 for just 2 combos instead of 3. For the price, I expected my full order to be correct. Disappointed in the accuracy and value of this visit. Train your employees to count.
