If youre looking for a budget-friendly option, this might not be your first choice, as many find the "price" to be a significant drawback.

Insane Price for Sandwiches
My experience at this restaurant was defined by the insane price. For $49. 49, we received two sandwiches (a steak sandwich and a turkey club), a pop, and two waters. This cost for what we ordered felt completely unreasonable. The food itself was just okay, and the service and atmosphere were also rated low, contributing to a generally poor value experience.

Good Drinks, Bad Attitude
My experience at this restaurant was mixed. While the drink was good, the service was a major letdown. The staff member, Georgia, had a very nasty attitude. It's disheartening to see someone act that way at work. The manager also approached with the same negative demeanor, seemingly aware of Georgia's behavior. It felt like they should have addressed the attitude issue directly, perhaps by letting both individuals go and focusing on retaining the establishment itself.

Annie's Amazing Service!
My experience at the restaurant was fantastic, largely due to the exceptional service provided by Annie. She has an incredible sense of humor and is constantly on the move, ensuring everything runs smoothly. The food was great, earning a 4 out of 5, and the atmosphere was also rated a perfect 5. It was a lunch visit with no wait time, and the price per person was around $20–30.

Water Charges are Outrageous!
My experience at this restaurant was quite negative due to the service. I was charged $1. 34 for EACH glass of water, which I found to be despicable service. Smh.

Great Flatbread, Airport Prices
My experience at this small place was mostly positive, centered around their great flatbread and beer selection. We tried the Margherita and Sweet Heat flatbreads, both of which were tasty. The food came out fast, which was appreciated. However, there was a slight hiccup with our second flatbread; it was supposed to have arugula, but they were out and didn't inform us when we ordered. This led to a minor change in the dish. While the food was good, it is expensive, but that's to be expected at the airport. Overall, it's a solid place to eat and chill before your flight.
