Sam the owner is a terrible man, customer service and as a person in general. I was in their establishment prior to the cut off. I went to my car to grab more money and their bouncer physically put his hands on me and shoved me out of their establishment. I tried speaking to the owner and he slammed the door in my face. 0/10 HIGHLY do NOT recommend.
