She was cleaning the tables and I asked do I just sit myself and she completely ignored me. I asked again and she just kept doing what she was doing so the third time I asked I spoke up and she stared at me for second and said I don’t speak English. I speak Spanish but she was completely rude and I just walked out. I live just up the street been wanting to try it out but that’s just terrible and such horrible way to greet someone trying to eat at your establishment. Won’t be eating there point blank

They decided to bring one of us the what was ordered and the other 2 of us waited 45 minutes for our food to be served. We almost left before the food was serviced but yet decided to give it a try. When the food finally arrived it was almost burnt. Never will visit this place again.
