    Well for starters, they locked an exit while customers were still inside the dining room, 50 minutes before the dining room closes, which is a major OSHA and NFPA violation!!! Second, we got here at 8:10p, we were told we needed to get our food to go, even though we had and hour and 20 min till the dining room closed 🤬. Last week we came in at 9p, and was made to take out food to go and eat outside in the cold since there was a small group of us. Totally NOT ok. We are more than happy to take our business elsewhere since its obvious the employees are more concerned with going home than doing their job.

    Absolute disaster of a visit this last time. Usually it's slow at the drive thru but this time nobody was there when we pulled up and we were in the drive thru for 27 minutes. Didn't get onion rings no apology for the wait either. Marked off gps.
