The chicken was moist and all the flavors were delicious. My kids said it was the best chicken they have ever had and that there should be a restaurant. <3 super friendly staff also! Great job!

The cupcakes speak for themselves! I shared past purchases with my daughter and granddaughter and now they are ordering too.

Everything was very good. But the tots were too salty, and the bread on the sandwich was pressed too much for my taste. But would try them again.

The Keilbasa sub was FANTASTIC! The potato pancakes had great flavor, just a little greasy. Still very satisfied with our meals!!! Our little kiddos thought it was the biggest and best "hot dogs" ever.

I hired Gourminis for a team event a few months ago. They were so great we hired them again! The food is delicious and the service is great!

I loved the taste and flavor combination of the bulgogi fries! The gyoza and sauce was great too. 2 things I'd recommend is to fry the fries extra so they wouldn't be as soggy and cleaning the flat top after every bulgogi so that the meat doesn't pick up a burnt flavor from the grill otherwise it was good!

Food is so delicious! My beef broccoli stir fry was perfect - Had the right amount of meat , right amount of vegetables, right amount of sauce.

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.
