Before you head over

Practical dining tips on timing, parking, and ordering from customer experiences.

  • Navigate the Lunch Rush

    Lunch queues frequently snake out the door between 11:00 AM and 2:00 PM, but the roll line moves swiftly with tables turning over fast. You can also phone orders in ahead to skip the rush.

  • Check Parking Options

    Dine-in visitors can take advantage of free 3-hour parking nearby, while street parking is paid using meters or the EasyPark app (and free before 8:00 AM).

  • Order Early for Signature Fillings

    Popular fillings like roast pork can sell out during high-volume periods, though tasty alternatives like chicken are readily substituted.
