My waitress Ms. Zafirah was great! She was friendly, courteous and helpful. My good however was a problem. I’m 37 weeks prego. I ordered the trifecta with a pancake. Had to send it back 3 times in order to get hot food.
Was not happy about the kitchen service but my waitress was nice.
The food was just ok, the potatoes were hard, my husband eggs came out scrambled hard when he stressed he wanted them cooked real soft. I’ve eaten at other locations and the food was really good.
