Food is great here. Beware located in heart of hood. Always packed. Call your order in ahead of time. You still gone have to wait anyways if you do but it cut down wait by hellas as opposed just going in person to order. Make sure you got protection too. Get you some cigs , blunts, bootleg movies while u wait on order.
