    Food.......okay. Service..........bad bad bad. One of the worse experience ever. The server is an ignorant hispanic. I am Asian, went to this restaurant with my fiance who is Caucasian. We had a big breakfast earlier the day and was shopping at the Knollwood Mall. Wanted just a light lunch. We walked in and he brought out a basket of chips and salsa. We ordered two softdrinks and subsequently ordered one taco and a burrito. The server walked away with a comment "you just wasted my time." We blew off the comment and finished our food. He got us the check, I gave my fiance a $10 bill. A minute later, she handed the $10 bill and the bill to him. He commented, "I guess the ladies pay in the United States." I confronted him about the comments. He mumbled in Spanish and he did not denied the comment he made, but he didn't gave me an answer neither. He went on and gave me the change and said, "take your change and never come back again". My fiance and I did not do a thing to him to deserve this kind of treatment!! We felt totally discriminated against because we are the only interracial couple within the restaurant.

    If you go to this restaurant, guys, be prepared to pay or expect a nasty comment from the server because he can't deal with having the women paying in the United States!! Or if you are going there for just a snack and drink, DON'T border, you are just wasting his time!
