Don't run out of German potato salad so early in the evening. We placed our order before 5:00 for a 5:20 pick up and they were already out of it.

The only thing we would not order again is the Barbacoa tacos. Expected them to be more finely shredded. The meat was a little tough. Everything else was great!

More accurate timeline to have the food ready. My grandkids waited 45 mins after being told it would be 10 minutes

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.

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.

There were three of us. We all had different foods but all of us loved them-we had one Heat burger with onion rings that both folks loved. One person got the veggie burger-I had a taste and we both loved the flavors. I had the Mediterranean salad. I enjoyed the mixture of ingredients and the unexpected flavors of the broccoli and cauliflower.

Very tasty, and great portions. I ordered more than I could eat. It was delicious and filling. I would definitely recommend
