I'm totally disgusted. Angel, the cook used the bathroom while I was in there, walked out of the bathroom and picked up tongs just like nothing had happened. I mentioned this and was told he washed his hand behind the counter. It is possible he WET his hands but he didn't have time to wash them. I walked out 10-15 after him and when I rounded the corner he was working with the chicken. Of course I walked out. Not coming back here.
I love this place and the people who work there. The anti-Popeyes attitude. Closer to Chic-fil-a employees.

Bought a trio and they put the container with the beans on top of the steak and pork container in my rice. That’s not sanitary.
Do better.

We got the family deal meal for a reasonable price and was able to enjoy it for two nights. The food was plentiful and good.

The staff is nice most of the time. Food is subpar. Dinning area was dirty. But i enjoy the semi healthy options.

I think because they were 45 minutes to closing, is why may chicken quesadilla was wrong, and the meat was tough. However, this could change on the next order, but it will be no time soon.
