"Ive been getting from this place often for over a year now and im sad to say theyre having some quality issues lately, because they used to be real good. the spicy yogut is sour like it never was before several times i got it, the lokumades lately are soggy and not sweet enough wheras they used to be crispy crunchy and in honey, now its like theyre in midly sweet water. the rice i got has got so much lemon it in that its soggy and wet like no rice should be, and too sour. this last order they gave me two fries allntogether when i payed for extra fries. their portion sizes used to be v good, but lately im noticing theyre not anymore. i used to feel full after eating one of their pita rolls, while lately im still hungry after. not really sure whats happening lately, but i wish theyd fix it"
