Had a little bit of a difficult time telling which taco was which without picking through the tacos to see what meat it was. Offer diet sodas or more variety. They need chips and salsa!

The Mac and cheese could have been a bit creamier and I was surprised that the chicken tenders didn't come with fries. The meat was fabulous

The pies were amazing. A little too rich to eat all at once but I am looking forward to finishing it later. The lemonade was delicious also.
