Chris at this location is a great, hard worker and I always see him multitasking with many responsibilities at once, while still providing fast service. The location is well hidden and a little old, but the workers here are great.

It is a very quiet place with very friendly employees. The food is prepared at the moment.
Vegetarian options: Let them return the one they had previously for vegetarians and the six dollars. Also.
