    Manager acted like she didn’t see me and my guest when we walked in. We stood patiently and waited to be greeted and seated. Quesadillas were barely warm. Ignored on the way out to top it off.

    The atmosphere was okay, but the food didn’t taste very good and took a long time to come out. Considering the quality and the price, it wasn’t worth it. I gave it a try, but it’s not a place I would return to.

    Appreciate that they can cater with relatively short notice. Food is standard for Pappasitos and they give large portions for the price. Pick up was easy as well.
