    I placed an online order worth over $70. After my order was picked up we realized a salad was forgot. I called the store to ask for a refund of the salad they forgot. I was transferred to someone who didn't introduce herself and asked that I call her back after lunch? As confusing as that was, I asked why I would need to call back for their error. She then said ok I'll fix it and hung up on me.....

    Staff at this location are the worst: Not helpful, not polite, not kind. Order errors and out of stock items (chicken noodle soup!) among other inconsistencies, and staff are downright rude. Drive to any other location.

    The Italian Steak & Mozz was good. But the steak could use a little more seasoning.
