    Worst experience ever. We waited in the lobby for 10-15 minutes just waiting for someone to greet us or say anything. There was one guy whose pants were sagged down who kept giving us a “one minute” finger while never coming to us at all. Eventually we just interrupted and asked how long it would be for a table for 2, he said 20 minutes. Completely unprofessional and horrible atmosphere. If someone had just told us from the beginning it would be a 20 minute wait I would’ve been okay with that. Just such a weird vibe and weird atmosphere. They’re clearly understaffed and lacking training for the employees that they do have.

    Placed an order online, received email confirmation, credit card charged, went to the store for pick up and they told me there was no order for me.

    we first tried to get seated and eat at the restaurant and were then told the wait was 15-20min. the person in charge disappeared for 30 min. people started walking and sitting themselves while others waited. we asked to see the manager twice and were told he was busy. at that time we decided to order out. our estimated pick up was 10:10 to 10:20. At 10:30 we were told our order was still not ready. apparently it was but they could not find it. the person had the audacity to say i had no right to be mad because it was my fault for not clearly telling him my name. one of most mismanaged placed i have been to.

    The pick 6 deal is insanely well priced, highly recommend for 2 people! Waiter was friendly, but service was a little slow. Wings were absolutely drowning in sauce, and fries were oversalted. Otherwise, food was good.
