When downtown and want good food but not to much money good place to go

Food was alright nothing special. Service was not that great literally asked my friend if they wanted a refill but my cup was empty and got ignored so.... Also there was flies and smelt like burning food in the kitchen.

The most grease ladden burger was tasty, but I truly needed to use my napkin to soak up the puddle of grease on my plate, before it could saturate the fries.

Never disappoints. Had the Open Face Roast Beef sandwich. Was delicious. Wife had the Cob salad and was refreshing. Service was great

I don't know how IHOP is able to compete with it being so close to this location. I think if you have the right expectations, you'll really like this place. It's a restaurant chain but the quality is a bit better than the oversaturated ones like Denny's or IHOP.

I had breakfast here and it was great. Had scrambled eggs, potatoes came with green onions, 3 different meats with actual flavor. Pancakes had good texture.

I love the retro look and the service was great too!

The food, service, and overall experience were abysmal. This location, in particular, has really gone down the tubes. Never again!
