(I was unable to go inside because of small kids in the car. I attempted to call the location, butnobody answered the phone.

My husband's meal was decent, but he requested an apple as a side and instead received chips and a dry pickle. Overall, everything was just okay. We didn't order drinks and shared a pastry, and our total came to around $36 for the two of us, which felt overpriced for what we received. I'm not sure if we'll return.
