However, I do have a couple of complaints. They often seem to have issues with their ice cream machine, which is a bit frustrating. Additionally, the burgers are a bit on the pricey side for what they offer; it seems like they use frozen preformed patties rather than hand-shaped ones, though they are cooked to order. The food is consistently served hot, and I’ve never encountered any problems in that regard. I do wish they would consider elevating the overall ambiance—upgrading to nicer tables, giving the place a fresh coat of paint, or adding some curtains could really enhance the experience.
