We had heard some buzz about this spot, so we decided to give it a try, eager to see what all the hype was about. Upon arriving, my boyfriend and his friends were met with a lengthy wait of almost an hour before the food finally arrived, which was quite disappointing given our anticipation.
I ordered the buffalo chicken wrap combo, complete with a side of fries and a refreshing pineapple lemonade. When my wrap arrived, I was surprised to find that the chicken was chopped into small pieces rather than the traditional buffalo chicken tenders I had expected. The flavor was also quite differentโmore reminiscent of teriyaki than the spicy, tangy buffalo sauce I was hoping for. It was an unexpected twist that didnโt quite hit the mark.
My boyfriend opted for the honey garlic salmon rice bowl, but unfortunately, it fell flat as well. To our dismay, there was no hint of honey in the salmon, and the garlic flavor was overwhelming to the point of tasting burnt. This dish, which we anticipated would be flavorful and satisfying, ended up being quite underwhelming.
We decided to share an order of the seafood puffs, but those too were a letdown. They were excessively salty, making it difficult to enjoy the dish. To add to that, they were served with a dipping sauce that was equally salty, overshadowing any potential of a complementary flavor. We both agreed that a Thai chili sauce would have been a far better pairing, adding a needed kick and balance.
As for the pineapple lemonade, it was a major disappointment as well. Instead of the bright, tropical flavor of pineapple, it tasted overwhelmingly sweet, as if someone had poured in a bag of white sugar. There was absolutely no trace of pineapple in it, leaving me wishing for a refreshing, fruity essence instead.
In summary, our experience at this establishment was far from what we had hoped. The extended wait time coupled with the subpar food left us feeling dissatisfied. With our order totaling nearly $60, we agreed that we wouldnโt be returning to this place...
ย ย ย Read moreI hate leaving bad reviews, but it's my truth. I did an only order with the pickup time of 7:04. I got there on time, and the waitress was nice and informed me that they just ran out of the jerk puffs and were making them fresh. She informed me that everything else was ready except that. No worries, I prefer my food fresh and hot. Unfortunately, the only thing that was hot was the jerk chicken puffs. I ordered the teriyaki chicken wrap combo, and the fries were blan, cold, and disgusting. The wrap was mediocre and a little too wet and greasy for my liking. I appreciate that they did pack it up with ingredients. Unfortunately, it did upset my stomach, and I just felt so heavy and uneasy for the entire evening. I did not eat the fries, only the wrap and a bite of the jerk chicken puff. My bf ordered the loaded fries with jerk chicken, and it was the same situation. Cold fries with the taste of old oil are disgusting! Online order stated sweet potato fries, but instead, it was the regular potato fries, so that in itself was a huge disappointment. If you look at the picture, they just threw long pieces of lettuces on top... I don't understand why they didn't chop it up. We live 7 minutes away, when we arrived home, everything was cold and just an overall flop! The Alkaline Lemonade was good and refreshing. Also, I enjoyed the jerk puffs. My experience doesn't deserve a return visit. This is the sole reason for my low score, but the...
ย ย ย Read moreBELIEVE the negative Reviews you're seeing. I wish I had been warned myself. I found this place on instagram and the pictures and the atmosphere looked SO good I wanted to go. The most insulting part of this for Me is that I went so far out of my way for VERY mid food, in the ghetto, for ridiculous prices. I got the "seafood" puffs And a shrimp bowl. The "seafood" is just salmon and Shrimp and it's DRY and overcooked. The shell is crunchy and very stuffed but that just means more chewing just to be able to swallow. Good flavor. It came with fries. Fries were dope. The Bowl is ALOT of brown rice. The cheap hard kind that is, of course .. DRY. Topped with grilled purple onions, zucchini and shrimp. The plate i got looked NOTHING alike the nice presentable photos. WAY more rice than anything else and the "flavor" almost didn't exist. I can SEE seasoning. Where is the taste? The "honey garlic" sauce... still looking for the honey part. More like a creamy garlic Parmesan butter. Wasn't bad though. Added to which I was literally handed my bag by one of the cooks, his glove's and my bag was COVERED in grease like that made sense. 2 stars because the food was at least edible. And I heard gunshots waiting in my...
