Small group or large, they can take care of your table without missing a beat. We will be back again and again!“

“Great experience. Only comment would be make sure you ask what is extra with your meal… we were charged for extra bread and each topping on the baked potato WITHOUT knowing until the check came. We were not asked of it we wanted it or ifnit was okay to add on Service was great and food was excellent but did not appreciate the sneaking in a couple upcharges.. then when we asked about it, the waitress seemed confused, said “it comes with it” then why is it an extra charge?? Just left a bad taste at the end of the night. It’s not about the price…it’s the principle and ethics…“

“Every year our worship team (12-14 ppl) has their Christmas appreciation dinner here. Phenomenal food and great service every single time! So many great entrees and we’ve tried many items on the menu. We are well taken care of, excellent food and price. Meg and the staff are wonderful!“

“Forgotten items 4 times in a row for to go. Manager guaranteed to issue a credit last time, said he would follow up but never did. My last order for to go was paid for with a gift card from corporate on Dec 7th, and yet another (premium) side was missing, and the rice had a hair in it (Definitely not one of ours). Eat in experience may be different, but to go is horrible.“

“We love this place, and the food. We’ve Been here multiple times. But today 7-11-2025, we showed up at 9:10pm and were excused out the door because the front greeter stated to us that they stopped dinning at 9pm. The waitress in-front of him looked like she felt bad and was wanting to sit us down, but the male greeter gave her a grin. The Hours for this place is 11am-10pm. What a way to loose business right at your door! Very disappointed with this !“

“1st time there, food was incredible and the service was spot on, will definitely be coming back.“
