I only come to this place while using Too good to go, as I’m on an extremely tight budget, and my options are limited. So, I can’t speak from a real customer stand-point. Nevertheless, I’d like to admit several qualities. Location. Very good, right in the center, however in a quite district, away from major traffic. Therefore, sitting on the outside terrace must be pleasant and enjoyable. Staff. Very good, friendly, always look sharp. To those who might comment on delayed service, I can tell - these guys don’t goof around. So, if you had to wait some longer than you expected, that’s 100% on nature of business during busy time. I had myself to wait a bit longer for my pick-up couple times, but it was clear that staff was loaded with the orders, nothing to do with laziness or unprofessionalism. Once again, kudos to guys who work there, they do great job. Atmosphere. It’s an old-school place, not about photo-shooting or other fancy elements. You come, you order, you eat, and enjoy your time. I personally like it there, it’s simple and cozy. It has exactly what you need, and nothing more. Food quality. Let’s put it this way: I came there several times, and each time I got my food, I’ve finished it all. Excellent. Prices. Can’t speak to that, as I said, I’m not a real-real customer, therefore I’m not aware of the prices. However, I must mention, that the cost I get my orders for, it really saves me. Thanks to this guys I was able to survive pretty well, and I’ll always be grateful to this establishment for participating in program for saving food. To conclude all in above, I’ll give it well deserved 5 stars. However, I’ll mention it again. It very much depends on your expectations. Do not go there if you desire to appear in any sort of luxury, take pictures of fancy looking food and post them in insta, while listening to cool music. It’s a family style place with such food, looks pretty simple, but has a vibe of a good soul, and you’ll love it there once you put your phone down and focus on gathering with real humans.
