Super friendly service! They really promote their food! Boneless chicken is delish! My fav is Soy Garlic Wing. Very tasty, crunchy, but soft inside! Mochi donut is super soft! I love it here! Highly recommended, and I'll definitely become a regular!

Finally! This place is a treat for us working nearby. The staff who are still training are friendly and very accommodating. The donuts and the bubble drink are exactly what I expect. Haven't tried the Corndog yet, but I am sure it's great

I come in almost daily for the hot cheeto coated rice hotdogs. The cheese pulls are amazing and for me one does the job. The staff is incredibly friendly and there's plenty of seating so you can have group events here. 10/10 recommend
