I had a situation with my food ! But Josh helped me was there giving the best service !!! Thank Josh again!
I'm a simple guy. I see red bean mochi that's a 165 calories, I get very happy. Its great and I enjoy coming every Sunday to treat myself as I'm on my fitness journey. I really REALLY hope its actually 165 calories otherwise I'll be very disappointed. Only feedback is to have the staff notice a line forming and just jumping on the 2nd register to assist. Poor guy was handling a line by himself while the other members were what looks to be doing secondary task.
