Went through the drive threw for some shakes and Tiffany was the best, she was so sweet and kind! Had a beautiful experience, she needs a raise!

Not a bad place to eat, some standards lacking like what the staff are wearing, The cooks should have clean pants on. The toilets have seen better days. So I can see why the place is quiet.
