Food was overall very good but white meat of chicken a bit try. I can't give this place more than 2 stars tho due to the service. I'm an American that travels abroad regularly. I ordered rice & they gave me fries. When I politely asked for what I ordered, I was mocked & told "everyone makes mistakes" implying that I couldn't remember my own order. I was with my wife & 2 year old & 4 year old (I wasn't some drunk off the street). It wasn't until I threatened to leave a bad review that the owner begrudgingly gave us what we ordered. As I was leaving, I tried to tell the owners the food was excellent & they ignored me. They rationed out tiny ketchups to us & 1 napkin at a time. They then proceeded to mock my family to other diners before we exited (again a 2 year old & 4 year old). I guess if you're a local then maybe a different experience, but I wouldn't come back here & wouldn't recommend other Americans to either...
