The pull pork and chicken sandwich are delicious, and so is the mango smoothie.

Large drink menu. I felt like the food menu was limited. Several kinds of mac and cheese. Over all good experience.

A good place for a heavy meal. Service was awesome. We both got Cubans and they were good but the chicken one was better than the traditional. The highlight was the yucca fries do not sleep on those. I had a little Cubano coffee too and it was deliciousOverall it was pretty solid and I'll go back if I'm in Ames, but I wouldn't drive there special. That's not a knock, just a reality.Parking: It was early so we had our pick of spots but I could see it being a goat rope.

An excellent location right on Welch with lots of activity. The food options are all very good and the drinks are pretty affordable. I've enjoyed it every time I've gone, the grilled cheese is a solid go too. My one issue with this restaurant is theservice is a little hectic and you may be missed or left waiting for a while once you seat yourself.

Mac and cheese is awesome. The gyro was okay and the fries were wonderful. Service was fair. They were out of a couple things I wanted. Nice little place.
