"I just drove pass this place and it had me thinking, The last time I was here, I was served fast and quick but to my surprise the food was very cold plus the chips was missing when I opened it in my car and I never went to any hungry lion after that. Didn't want to argue with the employees so I just left. Must have been a mix up from the meal packaging section."

"The specials are really Amazing prices and value for money , the only problem is the specials have a limited time in the day and then the lines are extremely long with only 2 cashier's and the waiting time for food is long, The other problem is they have a special on certain things everyday but are always having items unavailable from the specials menu or only 1 sauce from the 2 that you are ordering so I feel if you are aware of the fact that you are advertising specials and also having certain items that's popular on your menu Oder enough stock because it's very frustrating traveling all the way there and then you don't even get the items you went for .But loving the specials they are currently having ."
