"That is one of the best au jus I've ever had. Whoa, that is the best I've ever had. That is like a beefy flavor. And it tastes like, you know, you taste sort of like that red wine flavor in it as well."
"Not only is it good, you just get so much food for your money. I mean, in New York, this would be, like, a well over $100 meal at the bare minimum... The hype is justified."
