The lo mein was phenomenal, the noodles soaked up the sauce perfectly. I will say though that it was a little too sweet but I'd definitely get it again next time you're here!

Consistency- these were huge pork bones - last two times we had the smaller bones / much better taste

Burgers are always delicious, lettuce and tomato always fresh and fries never greasy. We also love the toasted buns. It especially helps with the gluten-free buns. Without toasting, they tend to fall apart.

We had a great experience with TNT Mexican Grill. The food was delicious, service was fast and organized, and the team handled our group efficiently. They took orders quickly and served everyone in a timely manner, which made the event run smoothly. The only small suggestion would be to have a separate table for churros and napkins, as they were a bit hard to see and grab from the service window. Overall, excellent service and great food. We would definitely work with them again.

That was just about the best chicken I have ever had. The crunch, the taste, the moisture was all delicious.

The food was delicious The fries were good and I was late picking up so if I was on time and the food was hot I can't imagine how scrumptious it all would have been. I had the briscuit and my husband had the Philly cheese steak and they were both filling enough that we could save half each for tomorrow's lunch. I got an order of boom boom sauce just so I could know whether I should order the sandwich that has it the next time. I think I will; it has just enough of a kick, but not too much that it will cause me heartburn. Loved it.

The spice levels were 1-5 I chose 1 (I don't like very spicy foods). However, I found it to be quite spicy which is why I rated it a four. Otherwise the food was very well made.
