    Too expensive and food was mediocre. Half a steak and cheese with too many hot peppers and cost over 12.00

    Would give a zero if we could. First time we ordered online, it said there was an error placing the order. We called and they said they had no record of the order. We placed the same order 45min later and it went through. 2 hours later, we got 2 orders. Second time, we called 30min after our order was supposed to be delivered and they said it was ready and ready to be picked up. We informed them it was delivery and they said, "oh, you are right. Should be picked up soon." Two hours later, our food is still not here.

    They can’t make half a sandwich in 30min. Don’t waste your time.
