It was great to finally eat here because of how ingrained in me the importance of this brand is and my dining experience here definitely confirmed that. My dad would tell me over and over and over again that Warren Stoll of Beverly Hills had made a major franchises agreement with this corporation and I never understood why nothing came of it. Loco.

Without mentioning the region attached to said major franchises agreement I would like to say thank you to Mr Puzzle...

Food was good, people friendly but they totally messed up my order (the order on the receipt was correct)
Like 3 things were incorrect. I ate it anyway because i hate complaining and don’t trust people not to spit in my food lol.
Paid $17 for one item and a drink. Pretty insane.
