We won’t be back even though the burger and steak were delicious. Here’s why:

-when we ordered they let us know that the fries were in the same fryer so we ordered the salad. At the end of the meal, we saw on our bill we were charged an extra $3 for a salad (there are only 2 salads available instead of fries). We brought this up to the manager and she said she would remove it since our waitress didn’t let us know. So beware. Also, the salad wasn’t good in our opinion.

-they charged an extra $3 for the GF bun. I’m aware that this is usual and the waitress did let us know but on top of a $3 charge for salad my $18 meal turned into a $24 one.

-we got Kids burger meal for my son. He enjoyed the small fries and burgers and it came with a donut ice cream desert for $12. Except when the desert came out the donuts were hockey pucks. We asked the waitress if they were supposed to be extremely hard and when she returned from the kitchen she said all of their donuts were stale right now. Offered us extra ice cream and that was it.

-we spoke to the manager who agreed that the salad charge was “annoying” but because salad was more expensive for them that’s why. We suggested they have a side such as a baked potatoe that people at least have an option to not be up charged again. She agreed but who knows what will happen.

It was honestly one of those times that you just want to cry because you have celiac disease. And no one should be made to feel that way.
