When they helped me they made the food right then from the front! So there is no excuse for making me wait not just past the 15 minutes promised but an additional 10+ minutes. So today I didn't just walk away & wait another 10 minutes by going behind all of the ppl that came in after me when I had already been standing in line. The lady looked over her shoulder at the screen & said we don't have your order. There is no way she could read those orders to know if they were mine. I said then I'll give it to you now my name is.... The lady next to her with order tickets mispronounced my name, but it was me so I said that's my order. We went back & forth until she finally said "well she can make your order & you go stand in the corner over there somewhere!" God was watching my tongue because, even though I should have had the same attitude she had, I didn't. I remained respectful as a grown woman should. I don't know what her malfunction is but if you have an attitude about putting food in a container, you should find other employment instead of giving this business owner's restaurant a bad reputation because this wasn't the first time but it is the last!
