! I ordered a head and was late picking it up, so my hopes were not high that is was going to be warm still. I was wrong. It was still warm and it was delicious. I didn't realize tater tots came with the sandwich and they were also cooked perfectly! It was my first time having Hot Off The Press and I'm so glad I chose them! Will definitely eat from there again!! Also loved the option to order ahead!!

The plain Jane chicken is like a chick fil a sandwich on steroids. I throughly enjoyed the pickle flavor. It seemed like it was marinated in pickle juice and I LOVED it

More avocado sauce on the plates that come with it or an extra side of sauce. The buffalo sauce was a little overwhelming. But other than that everything was delicious.

Had the chicken birria tacos. Excellent filling in tacos and the broth for dipping was awesome. Hopefully Mom's Tacos comes back soon, looking forward to trying something else

I preordered and prepaid. When I got a text that my food was ready, I still had to wait in line because they were taking walk up orders and did not call out my name. I finally cut in between walk up customers and asked if I could please have my food. This was a little frustrating. Also--the sauce options are very cryptic. I couldn't tell which were spicy or mild or sweet or not. I had to take a guess since I was preordering. As it turns out, the one I picked was more spicy than we like. But the wings were good.

Delicious shrimp with perfect spice/sweet. Portion size was slightly smaller than expected for the price but very convenient. Please come back.
