    Food was good. Only thing is they should offer a two size portion of chicken for the waffles and chicken. My friend said she would’ve rather have ordered a little bit more if there was an option to.

    The food was delicious. The server was friendly and efficient. The receptionist was also very friendly and held our table for us even though we were running late due to a car accident on the freeway.
