“I have to give this place an overall 5 star because of how much my wife & daughter like it. It's good. It's clean. Staff is nice. It's just, for me, it's not worth the cost. If I'm gonna pay $15 for a burger & fries, I don't want napkin dispensers on the table and someone should be walking around refilling my drink... I CANT STAND paying restaurant prices for fast food (that is honestly pretty slow most of the time).”

Kid-friendliness: Plenty of space for high chairs in between tables.”
