Read moreWe had a couple bad experience with this restaurant first one they never brought me my hash browns after she said they were on the way and at the time to pay she told us we should have reminded her but as a customer it's not up to us to make sure she does her job and then today we picked up our food to go and when I arrived there the food was sitting on the counter not under a heat lamp and my eggs were over cooked they were green and I could pick up the slab of scrambled eggs all at once with my fork and the rest of the food was warm and when I needed to talk to someone they never spoken to me I drove past and they were not as busy as they made it sound it is a shame because we were regular customers but in this past month or so the staff is rude and the food is not the greatest over cooked and cold never has this been an issue till now and they now lost a...
