I walked into the place at about 1 pm and the lights were off, there was no furniture, and the whole place looked dusty like it hadn’t been cleaned in a while.The first employee I come across was a prep cook, who seemed to be the only person who spoke English. When I asked if the place was open, the prep cook was nice enough, but wasn’t sure how to answer, saying that he had only recently started, but that this wasn’t a sit down restaurant, it was take-out only. Okay, makes sense why there is no furniture. Then some woman comes out of the back (manager perhaps?), and asks if I am picking up a catering order.“No, I don’t have an order, I’d like to just order takeout, please.” (The place also didn’t smell like food, or really like anything was cooking, plus there were no sounds of any activity from the kitchen.) I was then informed that there was no menu to even order from.Special of the day? Nope.The lady then told me politely that if I wanted food, I should go down the street to the Mexican restaurant. 100% this place is a front for some sort of operation.
Owner response
Sir, with all due respect, it’s a catering business.We will change the description due to confusion.
Came in here and it was a mess.No one really wanted to help me and tables weren't set up at all.They didn't really want to service me and told me that they only do catering even though it's clear they have a normal menu as if they were a sit down restaurant.Extremely shady place.
Great food.Call before you come there are wedding hall
