“The Shrimp Teriyaki was good. I do wish the salad wasn’t put with the hot food. It makes it hot too and mushy. The big bowl with extra veggies doesn’t travel well and there aren’t many veggies on this like advertised, and didn’t taste that well. It was soupy. The lettuce wraps were okay. I still recommend this place.“

“This was not only a great meal, but a great experience. Our waiter, Charles, is awesome. He took good care of us, and is very entertaining in the best way! The manager visited our table multiple times just to check on us and was quite funny too. The food was amazing and very fresh. Everyone was beyond happy with what we ordered. You gotta get the double chicken fried chicken for sure. The prices were a pleasant surprise and makes it easier for larger families to be able to enjoy a meal out. We will be back for sure.“
