This place is a dive and disgusting!! They try to fancy up a typical dry Senegalese burger with a commercial and fancy nàme but stay away. The bread is dry and stale. The meat tasted old and burned. The shawarmas meat was over cooked dry and disgusting. It was served with a crepe on the side to build it yourself but they should have hidden that dry crumbled meat in an assembled product.

The point is don't lower expectations for Customer service because their understanding of Customer service is...
