I honestly haven’t been to this place in YEARS, but my aunt chose it for her wedding dinner—and wow, I’m so glad she did. From the food to the drinks to the service, everything was excellent. Our server was attentive and kind, and every dish we tried was delicious. It felt like the perfect spot for a special occasion. I’d definitely come back again!
Food was great, the flavors were on point and great servers. Drinks (Pina colada) flavor samples were given to try before making a choice of drink, definitely recommend.
The pinacolada was one of the best I have had had. The plant burger was awesome as well. Plenty of tables- busy but not overcrowded.
Always come here when I’m craving BBQ! The food never disappoints — flavorful, filling, and served in huge portions. The drinks are a standout too — giant, fun, and delicious. Prices are super affordable for what you get, and the vibe is always lively and welcoming. It’s my go-to spot for comfort food and a good time without breaking the bank.
We decided to have dinner here on a Sunday evening and were seated right away. Most of us ordered wings but unfortunately the wings were not fully cooked, even though she asked for them well done. We got 2 orders of fries and they were both stale … apart from that ; I got the Shrimp tacos & I’d get it again.. definitely a 10/10. The frozen drinks were Delicious , prices are fair and staff is attentive
The ambiance at this place was just right—the perfect setting for the type of lunch my husband, our friend, and I were seeking. The staff at the Livingston location was absolutely phenomenal! Our lovely waitress, Tonya, was extremely attentive and took really great care of us! We also met the manager, Albert, who was also very personable! My friend’s husband is the GM of these stores, and you can tell he really knows what he’s doing!! We will definitely be back! Thank you so much for everything!!
Shout out to Manny, our waiter! He was very attentive and took great care of us. The food was FRESH! It was hot and delicious. The drinks will definitely give you a little buzz. I loved the atmosphere
