Can't say anything about the atmosphere cuz I was not there I had my father bring it to me what I can recommend you do is avoid getting the carne asada fries to go because the styrofoam box it is put inside melts and sticks to the cheese and the fries and it is very unappetizing what the government is good the fries a little soggy but that's a given the cheese cheesey
