Food – look the fries here undeniably good I mean they are really good. We came to the special promotion which was the caviar fries which they were selling for $10. The price as you would expect is a great deal for caviar fries, caviar, sour cream, and fresh french fries They were great. The flavor was awesome. They were small which should’ve been expected. I get about 10 fries again this to be expected with caviar on fries.Staff + space - biggest issue I have with this place is that the staff was incredibly aggressive. I’m sure he was just having a bad day so I’m not trying to get anybody in trouble, but we walked up immediately yelled at everybody who isn’t ordering needs to leave the ordering area, which is kind of strange. They went and sat down. Moved a couple tables together he yelled at tables cannot be moved came over and aggressively moved them back. He really made us feel uncomfortable and not wanted to be honest. Maybe not even wanna order the food after all there’s a whole table that has cone shaped areas for to hold your food and I feel like we couldn’t even stand there. His attitude really ruined the vibe. - Jack Tuggle
