I love this place. Great food! I have eaten there plenty of times. One specific night, my family had dinner there. After dinner, my family went to the truck and I went to use the restroom by myself. I pulled on the restroom door and it was locked. I heard a woman inside say, “Hold on.” So I waited for almost 10 minutes for this woman to come out, then my sister came back into the restaurant to get me and found me waiting outside the restroom. She asked, “What’s taking so long” and I replied, “I’m waiting for someone to come out”. My sister looked at me puzzled and said, “There’s more than one stall you can go in.” At that moment my sister opened the door easily, AND NO ONE WAS IN THERE. I gasped and told her what happened. Freaked out entirely, we left. One of the coolest experiences ever and still go out to eat there often.
