    Tiffany was awesome. This is the second timed she served us. Took the order correctly, professional, and overall was a great hostess. The food was delicious as always! It was actually less busy than usual. Usually, this place is always packed. So it was nice. I love this place I could eat here everyday! Love the rewards plan too!
