    Loved ordering through a QR code, drinks came out almost instantly, food came out hot and fresh and tasted great. We’ll definitely be back! I don’t think it’s as cute inside as the photos make it out to be, but I really did enjoy the food.

    I have been here 4x because of the mirror photos and the beautiful decorations! BUT the service is very slow. Which is surprising given that there is no waiter and you order your food on your phone. The photos also have only worked once out of the 4x i’ve been.

    Was skeptical of the non wait staff idea to begin with, but it wasn’t a huge detriment at all! Someone in our group has a tree nut allergy and their dish did come out with pecans. Unfortunately it did take a while to get a replacement dish and it seemed like the staff member who brought us our food forgot (took 45 minutes to get a replacement dish) but good coffee and company helped the time go by quickly! Not a fan of the hour and 15 minute time limit (especially since we all didn’t get out food for a whole hour). They should do away with that.

    Solid spot to stop for a meal. The burger was a table favorite and the burrito just needed some salsa. The alcoholic beverages are a tad too sweet
