Chicken had such great seasoning and flavor! Also the tortilla is cook not heated which is a big difference on how the flavor changes.

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.

I ordered the wings, which were good. I ordered a double batch to share with coworkers. Each one was short, a wing which the owner apologized for. Only one box had dipping sauce. He did supplement with cheesy breadsticks, which were delicious.

The brisket grilled cheese was seriously the best BBQ sandwich I've ever had. It was PERFECT. The meat was Smokey and the BBQ sauce was definitely homemade because it was superb & you can taste the love that was put into it. My husband tried it & instantly wanted one. We will be ordering 2 sandwiches each next time - they were THAT good. Staff was friendly and our order was made exactly at the time we selected. 10/10 will be back!
