Everything was delicious! We had leprechaun legs and Cajun Chicken Pita! Fries seemed to be homemade! Everything was so yummy and the only reason we did not eat there twice was because my mom wanted Mexican! Seriously yummm

The best perogies I've eaten in years! Highly recommend them.

This is the worst food my mom and I have ever had in our lives and I am not being dramatic in any way. The only think I could slightly recommend would be the tater tot’s or the waffle fries. But you’ll need to bring your own ketchup. Our bottle of ketchup had beer in it and even after it was addressed and a “new” bottle was given it still tasted and smelled like straight beer. The food looked beautiful when it arrived but appearance was the only thing going for it. Left with 80% of our food still on the table and was not even questioned as to why we didn’t eat it. Should’ve spoke up but was a lesson learned. Left the place still hungry but nauseous from the thought of this food. Completely unseasoned and steak was chewy/stringy and had to have been microwaved. Very disappointed.
