Good flavor. Maybe use both small container sections for veggies and mix the chicken in with the rice which would translate to more veggies and a bit less rice but I will order from you again

The Mushroom Swiss was cooked to perfection, flavor was great, and the rest of the family really enjoyed their meals as well. We have a picky eater. 😬

Food is always excellent! Service is wonderful! The Rollin Recipe is my favorite and if they are at my spot I always get my lunch there. Miss seeing Chef Dre.
