My husband and I are new to the area. This was our 1st restaurant experience back in May when we were first moving into our new home. The food was excellent then so we decided to visit again. We met Sebastin and he recommended the Chicken Alfredo dish. We both ordered it and took leftovers home. It was soooo good and can't wait to try their Taco Tuesday menu and many other items on their menu. So delicious, do friendly and such a fun vibe. It takes you back in time. We will be back for sure.!!!

Such a fun atmosphere and amazing food! There are so many great items in the menu I have a hard time picking! You have to try the rattlesnake tails.. so unique I’ve never had anything like them. For main course I have a hard time swaying from the tenderloin (arguably one of the best around!) but if you’re in the mood for comfort food the pot pie is to die for!

We are traveling from Chicago and found this great place to eat. Spectacular pot pie, Philly cheese steak sandwich was one great sandwich I have ever eaten. If anyone is traveling take time out to eat at this place. Will will keep this place as one of our top 10 places to eat. Enjoy!!!!

Sadly, after driving nearly an hour and a half to dine here, we were turned away at the door 2 hours before closing. They weren’t seating anyone because they ran out of food.

What an absolutely adorable theme! Loved the railcar feeling with the landscape zipping by. The food is just as remarkable. Loved it all!

Food was very good! Amongst our party we had: burgers, pork tenderloin sandwich, and grilled cheese. Service was excellent. Very clean from the restaurant to the bathrooms. Decor was cool. Was just like sitting inside a train with TVs playing where the train window would be.

Had the best tenderloin! Huge! Breading is perfect and it’s definitely tender, not dry. Will definitely go back!

We got 2 sandwiches with onion rings for the sides. Then we got a side of coleslaw that side of coleslaw cost us eight dollars When it should’ve only been three dollars when we got the bill they said we got onion ring appetizers, which we did not and was charged eight dollars. Both me and the other person got the same amount of onion rings for our sides. I was out of water for 1/3 of the time there until I finally asked for them to grab me water, even though they walked past me many many times. Check your bill before paying

Interesting first visit. Very unique place. I thought it was cozy. Service started off good, then we were transitioned to a different server, maybe it was their first day, but clearly they didn't know what they were doing. Food had good flavor, but...I ordered the French dip, w/ au jus. Received without the au jus, when I asked about it, I received a very lost look, the server didn't know what I was asking about, then I received a very, very small(expresso shot sized) cup of Au jus. I just stared, my wife laughed. I had to ask, how am I supposed to "dip" the sandwich in that. Our server just walked away. Overall it was ok, I suspect there may have been some recent staffing changes, but I don't know. I wouldn't drive 40 miles again to try, but if I'm in town in the future, maybe...
