"SOOOOO good and they gave me extra chicken! the fries were kinda cold when they came but tbh it was still rlly good my go to order frfr "
"Our food was not only poorly made but it was incredibly overpriced for what we received. We asked for the 20 Wings to be cooked extra crispy and they were just rubbery skin and slimy Hawaiian sauce. Just gross. We ordered a large side of carrots and celery and got 3 thick carrot chunks and 3 pieces of celery for almost $7. Maybe it was just the worst employees working that night but we'll never order from here again."

"We ordered the Stuffed Chicken , which is delicious whole chicken served on top of rice and noodle combination. Also ordered the Beef Shish Kebab , which is so good.. and the 1/2 Chicken with Rice & Sauces , which was served on top of a yellow rice. The Falafel Plate was good, along with the Iraqi Salad.

"Potatoes were not greasy but nicely cooked. And thank you, Cook, for leaving the bell pepper out of the potatoes. You noticed that I asked for none in the Scramble. The Shasta Scramble was really good. Great food out of the last two visits. I'm impressed!! "
"I ordered the meatloaf with mashed potatoes and brown gravy with a side of white cheddar macaroni and cheese. The meatloaf had a good flavor and firm but not dry texture. It came with crispy onions on top and the classic ketchupy glaze. The potatoes were just mashed redskin potatoes nothing stood out but that's what I was looking for just a basic anywhere USA classic meatloaf dinner. It didn't disappoint. Would order again if I'm feeling a comfort meal and don't want to use the oven in the heat. It scratched that itch and the portions are large. I made two meals out of it. Corn muffin was nice and slightly sweet and moist also"

I thought the first time was a fluke. After the second time of getting about a 50 cent piece circles worth of beef on the entire bagel, that just not worth it. "
