Description
Situated in the Crotona/180 area, this neat, family-friendly joint works well as a lunch stop before visiting the zoo. In addition to the standard menu, they serve fried chicken, cheeseburgers, and sodas in a casual sit-down space. However, convenience comes with a few minor hurdles: wait times can exceed ten minutes for orders to be ready, the drink station is sometimes short on cup lids and straws, and street parking nearby is often a challenge.
