This place is a hole in the wall dive bar. The bathrooms smell awful, as does the area near the men's room. The menu is outdated and they do not have many of the items on it (Shrimp Appetizers). One of the wraps is not made as described on the menu. When I questioned the server about it, I was told that they changed the way that it was made. Save yourself the time, do not eat here.
