Pros

The previous review is from a Dishwasher from Chicago, IL. However, the review was left for the Salem, OR. location. It was immediately obvious to me that it was left on the wrong location because our wait is about 15 minutes. Never 2 hours! Additionally, we have a large kitchen and dining room area.

Cons

Pros

The absolute best food. Nice staff always nice long term customers.

Cons

Way to busy with to many people for that small of a place. It’s very busy a lot of locals sometimes the wait is 2 hours Nd very unorganized and the owner doesn’t know what he’s doing.
