not too crowded or noisy for a late lunch. good selection of tasty food with an excellent salad bar. the service was good, there is plenty of parking and it's wheelchair accessible. the prices are reasonable, the building and grounds are well maintained with several resident ducks dotting the lawns and floating on a small water feature. a few colorful chickens also roam the grounds. it's a delightful place.

Always great food and service to match. Good times for family or friends to enjoy themselves.

Parking: It is a great place to eat and on the weekends, good local music. Drinks are good too. The smoking area is outside.

Originally went in for the salad bar, when I asked our server what proteins were available she said eggs only. She acted like my questions bothered her. I was hoping to see if I could buy a piece of chicken to go with my salad. I ended up getting Cobb salad and ate half.
