Outstanding service. Good food. Haven't been here for thirty years and now asking myself why? Very clean restaurant, staff was very friendly and helpful. And the food was good for breakfast. Will be returning to try the lunch menu very soon.

I only had the Loaded potato skins and tuna melt. Let me tell you it’s always consistent flavorful food, nice workers and fair prices. Would definitely recommend.

This place is adorable, cozy, and clean. We came for breakfast and our waitress was so sweet! I asked what kind of gravy they have, and she brought me out a little dish to try. The food was great, reasonably priced, and good portions.

Chicken tenders and fries; Mexican Omelette; and Banana and Walnut Pancakes. All good! Nice and hot. Nice people. The banana and walnut pancakes have real thick slices of banana and huge chunks of walnut. Sausage was great thick pieces. Mexican Omelette, the Monterey jack cheese was nice stretchy not commercialized. The real deal, real cheese. Delicious. Chicken tenders and fries were so good. Good BBQ sauce.its was $37 for those and one milk and a tea. Second time we went... Texas sandwich with grilled chicken and ham and substitute a different cheese. Sweet Chili Chicken wrap. Onion rings. Coleslaw. So good. Our new place. Worth the money. We love Janie, our server. Gave us coffee to go and our little one got two suckers from her. She's super sweet. Good coleslaw too.
