    Ross, Ohio; Where's the Asiago? On way back to hotel in another town one night, wife & I stopped here for a quick meal. She had a single cheeseburger and I tried the Asiago Ranch Chicken Club for the first time. It wasn't terrible but there was zero cheese or anything remotely spicy on that item. I didn't know if it was supposed to have a sprinkle of spices or whatever. It was only later that I read about the Asiago cheese that was missing. Not impressed!

    Took 45 mins for a TAKE OUT order because they did not bother to actually check my order for accuracy so I waited 15 additional minutes for wings that were NOT the flavor I ordered because they didn’t have my order ready within the time frame I was promised, then waited another 15 mins to get the correct wings. I feel like they could’ve used that time while they were sitting around waiting on my WRONG wings, to maybe, idk, take a second to make sure they were making the right thing?! meanwhile the people there were EXTREMELY rude throughout the entire process. And actually yelled at me because I asked where my wings were when they had told me they’d be ready in 2 mins, and then apparently had the audacity to ask where they were 10 mins AFTER he said it’d be “2 minutes.” Heaven forbid I want to get home and eat after working all day. I would avoid going there if you want to have any kind of a pleasant experience because they’re horrible.
