“Quick friendly service.
The food was good, and there was a beautiful painted mural on the wall of angel 😇 wings 🪽
Unfortunately, as we walked in, the smell of oil was lingering in the air, and once we left, our clothes smelled of oil, and we had to wash the clothes to get rid of the smell.”– Visitor (4★)
