The food was really good, but the item descriptions weren't complete (just one example - didn't expect jalapeños on the loaded fries), but otherwise tasty options! 👍

The miss piggy was so full of flavor. We loved the tender pork and tasty BBQ sauce. The Cuban panini had the right amount of ingredients. Both sandwiches were made fresh to order

Curry chicken was very tender. Rice and beans made with basmati rice added enhanced flavor. Cabbage and plantain were well seasoned and perfectly cooked!
