(aug 2025 update - unknowingly had the same meal w/apple pie - still great!)

Had the homemade tenderloin, french fries and a strawberry rhubarb pie for desert. The food tasted excellent; tenderloin was just the right thickness with a crispy tasty crust; fries were crispy and flavorful; the pie was served warm with your choice of whipped topping -or- ice cream.

Highly recommended.
Cute little diner just off I-80 & Route 78. Hours are breakfast/lunch times which worked out great for us. We enjoyed the pork tenderloins & had the cheeseburger (chowder) soup, I believe that’s what she said. Pepsi products. We were full but seen quite a few slices of pie being served.
This was great homecooked REAL food.
The salad bar had fresh tasty vegetables and the walleye was perfect. The cook even gave us the lunch special a little early.
Sorry I can’t remember the waitress’s name, but she gave very good service. The small town restaurant was a little older, but everything was clean. Will definitely be back.
