Waited forever for food even tho I called in ahead. No space to even stand while waiting for a meal I could barely eat.Nearly $30 spent for greasy, tiny, hard, dry wings cooked in last weeks fish oil. Greasy greens and flavorless mac. Total waste of time and money. Should have got pizza. This is not the same Sweet Potato from years ago when they had tables and chairs. Bye! - Mitch II
