Rude employees and subpar food. The manager was forcing us out 30 minutes early. Very slow service as well

This place needs serious help. I’ve overheard and even seen staff take hair or bugs out of food and still serve it — that’s disgusting and completely unsanitary. The kitchen is blasting loud, unprofessional music like it’s a party, not a business. Every time I come in, one young Black girl is doing everything while others just stand around. It’s messy, unclean, and looks bad on management. If this is how they run things behind the counter, I can only imagine what customers don’t see.

The food is good however the Caribbean Jerk wrap is spicy. Not normal spicy like eyes watering i might throw up spicy. However I champed it out and afterwards my sinuses, eyes and throat feel amazing super clean and fresh so im giving it a 5 star review because the endorphins from eating this wrap have me feeling better then the adrenaline rush from running and surviving 17 hungry hyenas and 32 lions. Will experience this again
