Really good! Very pleased with the cook and flavor! Good service too. I appreciate them not putting the ranch in the hot bag before pickup.

No, I just prefer my wings a little more crispy but I didn't add that to the comments so it's not their fault.

My hamburger was very tasty and done perfectly. I like the chili on my chili cheese fries too. It had a little kick to it, but not too much. I'm happy!

We were late picking up our food and they made us new fries. They didn't have to do that at all. It was my fault.

The bun got slightly soggy in the bottom. Not sure how to fix that, but that's my only criticism. It was a solid burger! 👌
