Seemed to confuse short female cashier. She asked if all the order could go in one bag, I said sure. When order was ready, picked up bag at counter, took to table and fries were thrown in on their side with half of the fries at the bottom of the bag. I didn't tip bag on the way to the table either. On arrival, music playing was loud enough. Once sitting down, someone in the back cranked up the music and was so loud couldn't hardly talk and hear my daughter sitting with me. Went back up and ordered concrete, Tall female cashier never said thank you and walked away. I had to reach over and pull my receipt off printer. When concrete was ready, walked up and part of my dessert was on the outside of the cup. Had to get a napkin and wipe it off to handle it. Poor service and seemed like staff just didn't care.

It can get loud at times, but not intolerable. We had Southwest chicken wraps and fries on one late afternoon visit and it was good. I love their fries. The next time we stopped in was a busy Friday night. We each had a steak (filet and ribeye), which is served with side salad and baked potato. The steaks were both more medium rare than medium, but had good flavor and we still enjoyed them. We also had cheese sticks for an appetizer while waiting on the steaks, and those are served with ranch and marinara. They were good too!
