I ordered the pound of tenders and French fries and it in fact was not a pound...i work in the food industry and I've eaten there many times... There were two chicken strips broke in half and hardly any fries.... And they were salty and soggy... The worker had her little child there and was puting her hands and fingers all over the go cups and at one point had a stack of cups in each hand with her hands inside the cups and then put them under the counter where you store them to give to customers... Not happy overall experience was terrible - Karen Myers
