The employees at this famous fast food chain have quickly become known as some of the kindest in the industry.

Bellissimo visited the restaurant that day to find all of his family and friends waiting for him, as well as decorations for his birthday.
“Oh I think this just one great surprise for me. I didn’t expect anything like this,” he said to Fox 13.
For the last 20 years, Bellissimo has been visiting the same Chick-fil-A. He sits in the same booth and orders almost the same thing.
At the restaurant, he is affectionately known as “Mr. Steve.”
After a fall last year, Bellissimo moved in with his son and visits Chick-fil-A once weekly instead of his previous daily visit.
