Reviewers describe a busy rush that, despite few visible in-store patrons, produces a long wait because staff are simultaneously filling delivery orders (per reviews aggregated via web search of Tripadvisor/Yelp coverage). Several reviewers note that when multiple delivery drivers arrive at once, the counter appears to prioritize those orders over walk-ins.
Service consistency is mixed: some customers call the owners friendly and the food excellent, while others report distracted staff and slower attention during peak periods (per the same review coverage). There's no indication of a formal reservation or waitlist system — it functions as a walk-up counter shop.
