When i was their i ordered a cocktail juice that has orange, banana, pineapple and strawberry with a burger, when done preparing because i was very thirsty i started with my cocktail but it was not delicious as i thought because i tasted sugar, tree tomato, and then when i complained about it they said that even if sugar is not written they add it. And then i was curious to know what kind of strawberry they use then i found that they do not use nature strawberry, but their service was great and i was such an amazing moment first experience i had. That is why i gave them 4stars for their service!
