I did not go. Never intended to go back there. I don't eat food that I threw up. Racists, biaised, classless, ill-mannered people like these should not have any business dealing with other races. I reported them and nothing was checked for my safety when you thought I will return there? Except for the front entrance pee smelling odor, the waiting area seemed alright. I did not see the roms. This review is for the staff. Especially the heavy set rude one that was stuffing her face in a whole in the back; I am glad you can do more with my money.
