Karen's is an interactive diner and an absurdly fun experience. At Karen's you will be greeted and waited upon by rude waiters who in return are expecting you to give it full Karen. A place where you can complain until the cows come home because we literally don't care. You can expect good food, good fun and a dining experience like you've never had before. Let us know if it's your birthday, if your name is Karen and for the love of Karen don't ask to speak to the manager....

The festivals were out of this world. They were soft on the inside and slightly crispy on the outside dusted with it tasted like cinnamon sugar and coconut. The sauce dip that came with it was also delicious not to peppery just right for someone who doesn't like pepper. I then had the crispy mushroom which came with mashed potatoe with peas soup on top and cabbage and a sauce on the side. It was delicious. I had the sorrel cocktail which was nice but I felt it was too sweet. All in all it was a great venue for myself and my son. I am still thinking about those festivals yummy. I will definitely return and recommend to others.
