It’s casual here. On our visit there was a sign that read seat yourself. They have seating indoors and offer patio dining.

I tried the Nashville hot chicken sandwich (xtra hot…it comes in regular hot, extra hot, and cozy hot) with a side salad.

The salad is fresh and adorned with sweet delicious sweet tomatoes.

The chicken and the bun were cooked more than what people like.

The bun was charred to black.

The best part of the chicken was the crunchy breading that stayed on. The chicken wasn’t served hot from the fryer and came out luke warm. It was edible but very dry today. We both thought they forgot the heat element of the sandwich at first bite because all we tasted at first was paprika. Heat did kick in at the second bite but it was mild heat and mostly just a paprika taste. I left most of the bun on my plate and some of the chicken so my server could see…….

My husband tried the Cubano dip sandwich (shredded pork, ham, Swiss cheese, mustard, pickles, pressed hoagie bun)

He said that it would have been good but the meat was very dry.

I thought maybe the house made gelato might be good so we asked for some. (I saw it on their website and also read about it on the black board pictured below.

When we asked about the gelato the server said that they haven’t had any in months….

That was my trip to Ground Control in Litchfield Park AZ.

Slight update****The owner contacted me and was apologetic. He said that he had trouble lately getting help. He also said that he would have refunded me if I brought all this to someone’s attention. Also the gelato machine is fixed now so they are serving gelato again.
