Read moreIt's a pathetic experience over there, no customer satisfaction, I went there for order only one counter is operational and more then 6 people are waiting for their turn when I was about to give my order the lady told me that payments to be done in cash only and didn't take my order, now a days lat many people are not carrying cash with them, then I have wasted my 20 minutes to arrange the cash and in that time my family members was expecting me to get the pizza, Then again I went for the order, I spoke to the manager regarding my issue he told me that they accept cards but it's taking long time of payments that's why the lady refuse me for card payments, I know they stand in a prime location that's why they have a attitude but in future I will not visit them for sure,
And one important thing they didn't wear mask at the time of food preparation.
Never expect these types of services...
