“I'm not so sure about the Westport location after witnessing an employee kind of heavy set with dreads died at the tips snorting cocaine in the back by the dumpsters and selling drugs he had to be the cook and I just do not want any fairy dust on my waffles or my chicken I rather go braid water or bite the curb that is not what I expected to see when pulling up and I definitely don't want to spend my money with an establishment that knowingly hires drug addicts“

The breading is not heavy and both the wings and livers were nice and crispy. The wife had the tenders combo and the tenders were a good size. She liked the taste and lite batter. Will definitely go back. I need to try the fish. Other customers raved about the fish. Staff were very nice and friendly. They cook your food to order so expect to wait. Definitely worth the wait in my opinion.“

“OMG my First Time here & it was 🔥🔥!“

“I tried the spicy Philly cheesesteak here and it was 🔥🔥—packed with flavor, perfectly seasoned, and just the right amount of heat. The meat was tender, the cheese was melty, and the bread held everything together really well.
What really stood out, though, was the customer service. The lady working there was incredibly friendly, patient, and welcoming. She made sure my order was right and had such a positive attitude that it genuinely made the experience better.
Great food and great service—I’ll definitely be back.“

The food was good, but the customer service needs work.“

Highly recommend!“

“Edit. They did send a coupon for a free sandwich and this one was much better... thank you.................Ordered a market-fresh sandwich and the bread in half the sandwich was rock hard.. after paying $12 for a meal I don't expect to throw away half. I hope this is not a normal practice. Maybe paying a little more attention to the food that is being served would help.“
