Simply Amazing

04/28/2024 - Andi K.
Our family had a surprise 80th birthday party for 20 at the Waxahachie location on Saturday, 1/20/24. The manager quickly accommodated us and the servers, Raven and Emerald, provided outstanding service by anticipating our needs and ensuring everything ran smoothly. The kitchen staff also deserves recognition for preparing 20 delicious meals simultaneously. Our Aunt was delighted, and the whole experience was wonderful.
