For the price I thought the quesadilla was a little on the small side. Order was ready 20 min after stated pickup time. Everything tasted good though.

The seasoning of the Shrimps, the tenderness of the tenders. The crispness of the fries. Just would've wanted more seasoning on the fries. Delicious

The brisket tacos were phenomenal. The sandwiches were also very good, a little saucier than my preference but I like little to no sauce, that's not a reflection of you guys, but it is all is very delicious.

please bring this one back. All of the sandwiches were great even the tater tots were soft in the middle and crispy on the outside perfect.

Make pictures more appealing- that was a large problem last night. You need a photographer or something to make those pictures were artistic . The pictures of the Philly cheesesteak do not look good and the burgers all look wilted. The taste of the food is not translating in the pictures. Your onion rings are delicious. Chicken fingers are average. You need a honey mustard dipping sauce. Cheeseburger was very good - add a pickle spear on the side. Fries were average Also add more choices than just Coke - and maybe you have them, but it doesn't show up on line.
