“Today was my first time eating here and I'll say right now that I will be back. This place reminds me a bit of a cozy diner.

We took my fiancé's dad here for an early birthday lunch. He was craving their calamari and onion rings and he said they hit the spot today. My fiancé got one of the daily specials (rodeo burger, I think) with sweet potato fries and I got the cheeseburger club plate with onion rings.

Come here with a big appetite, the expectation of a to go box or both! Portions here are very generous! We came home with at least half our rings and fries and I had part of my club sandwich left as well. A good portion of the calamari went into a to go box as well - that will make at least another two meals for my fiance's dad.

My burger club was very good! I wasn't given a choice on the doneness of my burger, but that wasn't a problem for me. My fiancé pronounced his burger as one of the better ones he's had in a while.

This place is very busy on Sundays and they close early (about three p.m. or so.) We did have to wait a little after we were seated for service, but that service was pretty good! Our food was as we wanted it and we got the things we asked for (cocktail sauce, extra cokes, etc.) despite our waitress running herself crazy to and from all her tables.

Prices were pretty decent for what we got (my plate was about $15.95 or so) The menu had a lot of variety - breakfast items, steaks, burgers and sandwiches, and salads. There is also a cabinet full of a variety of cakes at the front of the restaurant and they looked delicious!“

“Found this place after leaving a Ren. Fair, but we were pleasantly surprised! The food was phenomenal, I got a Philly cheesesteak w/ fries, my wife got Blacked Chicken Penne, and my god - the blackened chicken penne was TO DIE FOR. If I was a prisoner about to be led to the electric chair, this blackened chicken penne would be my choice for last meal. This dish was incredible, super tasty, very good sized portion, with just a little hint of spice. It is an explosion of deliciousness.

10/10 would recommend“
