Took a seat to eat a few bites before leaving. After eating a portion of the burger I felt unwell. So i ended up taking the rest home. When home i noticed the burger was undercooked (pictures included). Feeling queazy and regretting the money spent… couldn't see meat clearly while sitting in the store since the lighting was dim, it's an empty space, and weird vibe - not worth it.
