    Employees spend most of their time outside hanging out, talking and laughing and food takes forever to come out, just to have it come out cold. Seems like this is a hangout spot more than a work environment.

    So I ordered an Avalanche and a slush, and it took almost 30 minutes to get them. While waiting, I could see the staff walking around looking confused, constantly checking receipts but not making much progress. I even got out of the car to wait by the door, but they wouldn’t acknowledge me. To make things worse it wasn’t even busy at all!! and they served other cars that arrived about 20 minutes after us. All that waiting just for a slush and an Avalanche! Definitely wouldn’t recommend this place.

    I always wondered why this place didn't have much buisness. I came in to take a look for myself. I waited to order at drive thru no one ever answered. I then parked and tried to order finally someone took my order and I literally had to wait 20 minutes to get one burger. It's a shame such a new place but employees are killing there buisness. Feel sorry for the owner.
