I will first take a wild guess that there was a switch in management and product at some point within the last year which explains the mixed reviews. I hate to say, my expierence here was not excellent. The atmosphere was kinda cool and there is a lot to work with in terms of the space. Food wise... I am not impressed. The fries were soggy and we were one group of two. The chicken on our salad was very dry and the salad itself was not great. I really wanted to like this place, but I sadly couldn't. I can't recommend this place and I won't be coming back.

Ordered online for a pickup. I ordered the buffalo chicken wrap well before lunch time and when I got there they didn't have it ready. The host told me it was going to be a bit of wait, but I can tell that they haven't gotten started with my order yet, so I waited patiently, as I've worked in restaurants before. I waited 20 minutes for my wrap and fries. When I finally opened it to eat, the wrap was so loosely wrapped that everything fell apart. I was unable to re-wrap it to enjoy as well. It was just a bad experience overall.

The spicy chicken sandwich was 10/10The house made ranch is amazingThe Philly had some fatty peices but other than that the service was great and it was very cleanOverall 8.5/10Also I was told they will be serving alcohol soon

I have never walked into a fairly new restaurant where the manager was disrespectful! Compared to the server “UK” which gave me details and a great experience for the first time in that establishment. The “MANAGER” called “VICTOR” was Disgustingly Disrespectful into the sense of knowing when the customer is right. I tried to explain the difference of the same meal I have ordered plenty of times and the difference in between how I received it (Not the way I ordered nor says on your menu). Yet he kept interrupting me as if to brush me off, and then have the nerve to say if you don’t like it leave, after he takes my money. Out of 28 of my associates across the street from this place none of us will recommend nor support this establishment until someone respectful is running it. This place is Not ideal for family and definitely not ideal for business travelers especially when the manager “Victor” is there. Food isn’t worth the pricing. Food is way over priced. Although the company needs to replace or Hire better management. I give the server “UK” props for being a good server and being really respectful for first time I visitor.

Chicken tasted bland also dry kinda had a feel like it was already cooked and just warmed up to a point it was like beef jerky. I I payed 13 Dollars for this terrible food. let me just save everyone the time and say these good reviews are fake or something is going on because this place is nasty. ?

In the nicest way possible…I honestly have no idea how this place has such a high rating. We were told that it was a house made, 12in thin crust pizza, and it was a FROZEN PIZZA. Similar to jacks pizza. It wasn’t cooked all the way through, was cold in the center and had soggy crust.. $20 isn’t much, but it is way too much money for a frozen undercooked pizza and a can of coke.

Nice casual place to grab good at. The food took a while but it was all cooked perfectly, would definitely come back.

They just opened up dinning 2 days ago.Trust me when I say the food is second to none! I would choose them over apple bs any day.Great value!!

I really like this place but their ordering became non-existent. I used to place orders with Toast and their system is now constantly unavailable. Calling the provided number either goes to voicemail or just rings with no answer.

Stopped here on a whim for lunch and I'm so glad I did! I got the Parm Crusted Grilled Cheese (it had bacon and tomato too) with a side of fries and was not disappointed! It was a good quality sandwich, tasty and done right. The staff was friendly, and I hope the business does really well! I look forward to stopping back soon to try something else from the menu.
